Edward POV
"Hi, Alice. How you feeling?"
Alice looked over at the gorgeous woman at the door and gave her an wide smile as did Jasper.
"Bella, hey back so soon?" Alice asked, while lifting Harry up a little more when he started to whine a little.
"I've come to see if you're up for breastfeeding or not?" The woman I now knew was called Bella said, moving closer to Alice. She hadn't even acknowledged me, so that meant she hadn't seen more or she didn't want to make a fuss.
"Yes, I did want to, but I'm a little unsure. What if he doesn't take it?" Alice asked, looked towards Jasper to see if it was okay to stay but he was looking intently at Alice. Although I'm not surprised.
"You'll never know unless you try, I could have a breastfeeding nurse come see you?" Bella asked in a soft voice.
"Can't you help?" Alice asked, suddenly looking scared.
"Wouldn't you rather someone who specialises in that area?" Bella asked.
"Bella you've been here all the way through this and I'd much rather stick to my midwife, my amazing midwife mind you," Alice smiled at her and so did Jasper.
"Honestly Bella, you have to be the most amazing midwife there is," Jasper added then chuckled at something and so did Alice.
Bella's the midwife?
She didn't look old enough to be a midwife! She looked like she was nineteen-twenty at the most.
"You're the midwife?" I suddenly burst out. Bells jumped and turned to see who suddenly spoke, as did Jasper and Alice.
"I'm so sorry your Majesty I didn't realise that you was here," Bella the midwife suddenly said looking at me with wide eyes.
"There's no need to be sorry, I'm just a little surprised, you just look a little young to be a midwife, if you don't mind me saying?" I suddenly added not wanting to unintentionally offend her.
"I get that a lot sir. But I'm twenty-one and I'm fully qualified, and have delivered over at least fifty babies, including the little Prince right there." Bella said quickly.
"Wait so you've been a qualified midwife for at least a month if that works out?" I suddenly said. Jesus was my brain filter even working today or what.
"I qualified a year early due to me sitting my A-levels a year early, plus I delivered my first baby when I was sixteen. From that moment I knew I wanted to be a midwife and I worked my hardest through school, and I managed to finish a year early and even though it's against protocol, City University London accepted my application due to me having already delivered a baby before and I volunteered at my local hospital's maternity ward, they gave me good references, I got in. I promise I'm no phoney." She said suddenly with wide eyes and holding her hands up at me.
"Whoa, Bella honey, nobody here is questioning your midwifery skills here. I will forever be grateful that you delivered my first child and I hope you do so my next," Alice said taking her hand and squeezed it comfortingly.
"Plus, and no offence Bella, you had a background check done on you before you could even entry the room. You are a upstanding citizen, and to repeat what Alice said, we are very glad that you were the one to deliver baby Harry here," Jasper added leaning down and kissing the top of Harry's head. Bella gasped.
"You named him?" Bella asked looking back at Alice and Jasper, with a smile on her face.
"Yes, but please don't say anything," Alice said as nicely as she could.
"I won't I promise. Now breastfeeding? Are you up for that?" Bella asked again.
"Yes, but if it doesn't work, I'll go for the formula," Alice said.
"Right, what you want to do is place your nipple near his mouth and gently coax him, he will either take it straight away, take his time or he won't take it at all…" I coughed to interrupt her. They all turned to look at me.
"I'm gonna go and wait on there and see where everyone else is," I said gesturing to the door of their private living room.
"Oh Edward, sorry. Mum and dad called they're on their way from Madrid and Alice's parents are on their way back from Paris. I don't know where they are at the moment though," Jasper said distractedly.
"It's okay I'll find out where their all at," I smiled walking out the room, but not without taking another look at midwife Bella, she was looking at me and when she saw me looking at her she blushes. And let me tell you that blush was my undoing.
I walked into the private room and flopped down onto the sofa with a sigh, I closed my eyes as I felt suddenly exhorted. After five minutes of just been sat there, I pulled out my mobile and proceeded to call my parents to see where they were.
After several rings my mother picked up.
"Edward honey, are you at the hospital?" She asked me.
"Yeah I got here about half an hour ago; mother and baby are doing well as is Jasper. Plus I thinkAlicehas made a new friend in her midwife," I said to her, although I have no idea why I did.
"I completely understandAlicebonding with her midwife. I'm still friends with mine after she delivered you and your brother," Mum said conversationally.
"Okay…anyway, where are as I know you and dad were inMadridvisiting with the Royal family," I said wanting to change the subject as I know that I'll say something that'll get mum questioning.
"We've just landed inLondonso we should be there very soon, so tellAliceand Jasper that we'll be there in about half hour, forty-five minutes. Right I have to dash darling, we'll see you soon."
And my mother was gone. I looked at the phone in surprise and shook my head. It was rare for my mother to want to get off the phone with either me or Jasper when she hadn't see us for days. Plus I thought she would have grilled me about baby Harry. I guess she just wants to see him for herself when she gets here.
I had a similar conversation when I rang Mary and Jack,Alice's parents. Although they were having a harder time getting back fromParisso quick.
But lets just say things are about to get really fun when the whole clan descends on The Portland Hospital.
