Bella POV

"What is up sissy you do know I have the morning shift at the office this morning right?" Jas said

"Um… Yeah ….but …but…." I cant finish and I burst into tears immediately Jas and Rose are by my side hugging me waiting for me to stop and tell them what happened.

I cried for 10 minutes and finally could control myself.

(Jas, Rose, Bella)

"Babe what happened?"

"I found out who they are?"

"Wait what ….who the girls are right?"

"Yeah and now I have to give them back. They have been missing for a long time, since June 5, 2001"

"June 5?"

"Bells you didn't find them until what sometime in November right?""Yeah that means they were alone for a long time. Plus it said that their mother was taken as well. I don't believe that since Sophie told me about her mother."

"What do you want to do Bells?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well you know how do you want to go about this we could wait for a while and let the girls decide."

"No If it were me I'd want someone to give me back my girls."

"Sissy you do realize if you do this he may never let you see them again."

"I know ….lets look him up on the internet and book tickets to where ever he lives for Friday….then we all can go and meet them….hope they will let us at least have some time with them."

"No Bells we need to talk to a lawyer we have one on council 24/7 lets use him…. Just Hypothetical questions…that way we have an idea. You have been a wonderful mother to them you dropped your life for them that should count for something."

"Will you come with us on Friday?"

I have already made up my mind on going. The girls needed their daddy. Not that I wanted to get rid of them, but the dad must be going nuts. I would be.

"Fine Bells we'll call our PA's and reschedule our appointments for Friday."

"yeah because you clearly made up your mind already."

"I just say talk to the girls before we leave. That way they can prepare themselves."

"Fine I will. You guys know I love you right, the best brother and sister I could ever ask for."

"Of course little sis I love you. Even if you are being stubborn. I support your decision though.

"I love you as well, sometimes I want to beat you senseless, but still love you you're my only sister. But we really got to go to work, since you got the day off you need to get everything arranged for us."

With that they left for work. I went to the internet and found him Dr. Edward Anthony Mason Cullen. I found out where he lived. I booked tickets to Chicago as well as the president suite at the Grand for the weekend (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) booked tickets for all of us to go home. I even rented a car for us. I rented Jas a bike that is his usual.

Now all I have to do is talk to the girls. Should be easy but I am so scared. I love my girls so much and I hope they know I do. I have to pick them up at 3. I think I'll go to the gym to work out. That usually helps me relax.

I cleaned the house, did some laundry, started dinner, then went to the gym. I started on the tread mill. After an hour I went to the weight training, then I went to the pool and six laps in the Olympic sized pool. It is now time to get my girls.

I got to the school and the teacher was waiting for the children to get back from Art I think.

"Mrs. Steely I am keeping the girls home on Friday. We have family stuff going on so I need their homework today." I said probably a little fast.

"Ms. Swan, On Friday we are just having a party, the girls will not fall behind. It is only one day." Mrs. Steely said.

"Mrs. Steely it may only be one day but it is important for them to know that this is important and I would like you to know that If you demand ….no if you expect the best and help your children know what is expected of them they will know and stride for that. I will help my children with everything. don't forget that. I do this because I love them." I said

"Well there wont be any homework everything that has to be done will be done in class." Mrs. Steely stated

"Fine give me that and the girls will complete that." I said what is her problem any way.

"That wont be necessary Ms. Swan. They are not even your real children. Plus they can catch up on Monday and give some of the other children a chance to feel smart. They always have the right answer. Even if they never speak. I feel that you do their homework anyway." Mrs. Steely said

At this point I am so angry.

"My children rarely come home with homework, and if they do they finish it their selves as soon as they get home. I will answer questions but I wont give them the answers. That would do them no help at all and I am angry that you think that. Just have their school work sent home tonight. As to them being my real children they are my children and I love them. I may not have given birth to them but they are mine just the same. Good day Mrs. Steely" I said leaving her there with her mouth open gaping like a fish.

As I turned my girls were standing there blushing. I grabbed their hands "Come on girls we got to go now." and we walked out of the school.

"Wow mommy she was so mean and she has been that way since Zack got all those answers wrong." Sophie said

"But you sure told her, mommy." Ellie said with a giggle.

With that we went home. At dinner I'll talk to them.

()()()()()()()() Dinner ()()()()()()()()

"Ellie please set the table, Sophie please finish making the Kool-Aide."

"K, mommy" they both said.

With that we ate it was quiet for a long time. Now is the time I ate all I could.

"So I have a few things I need to tell you two, and I'll answer all your questions to the best of my ability. K"

They both nodded so I continued. ( Sophie Ellie myself)

"I found your dad I think so on Friday we will go there to see for sure."

"Will that mean that if it is him that we wont live with you anymore?"

"I think you will come home with me and we will come to an agreement. I love you and will not give you up so easily."

"Do you think it is him?"

"Ellie I think it might be him."

"Mommy I am so scared. Will he take us away from you?"

"Awh … my little ones, no matter where you are you will still be my babies. I know you heard what I told your teacher, and I meant every word."

"Do you think he remembers us."

"I know for sure that he does because of all the things you two told me. Ellie you told me that you and he liked to do Art together, And Sophie you and him played the piano. A lot. Because you two are super smart, and talented. Just remember your manners. K"

"Yes mommy we will. what do we need to pack? will everything be alright? Can I bring George? do we need to pack tonight? can I bring my fuzzy blanky?

wow they are going a mile a minute and barely letting the other talk

I laughed "Girls not tonight, but make a list of everything you want to bring for the weekend. K."

With that they helped me clear the table, and do dishes. They got their stuff for after their bath and got in the bath.

After their bath we read for a half of an hour. Then I tucked them into bed. I kissed them both and told them I loved them the same as I have as I have every night since they came into my life.

Then I sat thinking of the what if's and then pushed those thoughts out of my head. I have to hope that he would still let me see them in the end.

The week just flew by and we finally got on the plane to Chicago. They were so quiet. Our whole group. First class was great when we arrive we will be splitting up I got my phone. Jas and Rose are going to the Grand to check us in them after that they will meet us at Edward's house.

I drove down the street that the GPS said was on the end of the street "mommy I remember this place." Ellie said.

"I do too. Yeah it is right there." Sophie said.

They were both so excited. Literally bouncing in the seat. Then they stated fidgeting.

"Do I look ok" Sophie asked

"Sissy is my hair ok" Ellie asked

"Maybe I should have worn the other dress." Sophie said

"Ellie your hair is prefect, and Sophie that dress is awesome. And you both look great. Do you think Rose would let me let you leave looking nothing but prefect." I laugh trying to ease the tension in the car.

"Ok lets go girls. Who wants to knock on the door?" I asked

"Mommy can you I'm to nervous" Sophie said

"Me too." Ellie said

"Alright Come on girls." I said as I got out of the car. They followed closely behind me holding the back of my dark dress. I let them Ellie held George closely as well as my dress. Sophie held George's arm and my dress as well.

I knocked and rang the door bell.

"Hold on I'll be right there." a man's voice said

The door opened and the most gorgeous man I have ever met. With my girl's hair and eyes.

He was wearing low riding dark jeans and a t- shirt

"Can I help you miss" He asked

At that moment Ellie and Sophie said "Daddy" with that they both went around me and he dropped to his knees and they were hugging and crying. I was crying. He was whispering to them. The whole thing lasted a few minutes. Which I felt kind of like an intruder to their private moment, but I stayed there my girls needed me.

Edward Cullen POV

It has been a little more than 3 years since I have seen my wife and daughters. They were taken from a mall.

The car was covered with blood from all three of them enough to say it was a homicide. They stopped looking for them. After a month. They had said with that amount of blood loss that they had to be dead.

I didn't however. I had to pay a tremendous amount of money to get the girls on the missing children's' network. And they refused for the first year.

Vic said the girls needed some stuff. I really didn't care at the time. I could have gone with them but I needed to go over some patients charts and I was to operate on two of them in a week.

We had a fight she never let the girls be kids. She always got mad if I played with them like they weren't what she wanted for them. Sophie was my little one and Ellie was my sweetheart. They were twins in the last month Sophie took blood from Ellie causing Sophie to be a lot larger. I had wanted to have them delivered but Vic said no this is what god wanted.

Some how they both survived. Vic had a c-section to have them delivered.

I still did the operation on both and both was successful. You see I am the best Pediatric heart surgeon on this side of the country.

Vic and I got married just after we found out that she was pregnant with Sophie and Ellie I wasn't careful I should have used a condom. I wouldn't change it for the world.

Oh well I love both of them. Tori. I hate the name Vic said she wanted one of them to have her name and that was the closest I would give her. I still called her Ellie. Vic called her Tori. Sophie had a hard time pronouncing it. That made Vic mad.

I looked for my girls for months and came up with nothing. My brother and parents are very supportive.

I eventually went back to work at my dad's request. I put myself into my work. I get every night off and I sit in my empty house.

God I miss girls and their giggles, their laughing, their sweet kisses, their soft hugs, their "Dada luv u's."

Today is Friday I have mom here she usually cleans and cooks for me for the week, Cleaning isn't a must since it is only me and I pick up after myself. But it makes her feel better.

What really do I have to do anyway. My life ended when they went missing.

I will go into work at 11am just so I can spend time with her. I will never waste time again, I will always make time for my family. I have since my girls went missing

My brother lives about an hour away. We live in Chicago.

There is a knock on the door and then who ever it was rang the door bell.

"Hold on I'll be right there." I said didn't someone say patience is a virtue apparently not for them.

The door opened and the most beautiful woman I have ever met. Was standing in my door she has long brown hair, beautiful chocolate eyes a dark blue dress that hugged her curves.

"Can I help you miss" I asked

At that moment I heard the most earth shattering sound that I have waited for three years to hear

"Daddy"

with that my babies came around the goddess and I dropped to my knees and I grabbed my babies hugging them

I was crying. I didn't care who seen me. I didn't care if Emmett would call me a pussy. At that moment my whole world was here and I wanted them to knows I started telling them how much they mean to me and how much I missed them.

"My little one and sweet heart, I have missed you so much not a day has gone by with out you two being in my every thought. I love you."

I continued to tell them everything that I missed telling them. I may even repeated my self they whispered "I love you daddy, and I remember you. We missed you so much. Daddy."

Time felt like it stayed still. I could not have cared about how much time went by. All that mattered was my girls.

"Edward I was wonder…" my mother started to say and seen them and dropped to her knees hugging us and she was crying too. "My grandbabies ….my grandbabies…. Nana loves you so much." we stayed there crying and hugging.

In that moment I was so happy, and protective I am not letting my girls go ever again.

After a while we all got up and I remembered the beautiful sexy woman that brought my girls back to me.

"Umm…Hi I ….just .."I was finding it hard to find my words.

She laughed she had tears in her eyes. "I guess Hi I think we really need to talk. Right?" she asked

"I'm Edward lets take this inside." with that I lead her inside to the dining room "Here sit I need to use the rest room. Mom will you keep them company for a minute."

I went to the bathroom. I needed to call work to let them know I wont be in for ….well until I figure it out. I have patients but none that I am going to operate anytime soon. I really don't care I'll have my PA take care of it.

Then I call my dad

"Hi son what do I owe the pleasure of this call." dad said

"Umm… I think you need to come here. Now . The girls are here. Sitting in the dining room."

"I'll be there in 20 minutes. Beth clear my schedule for the weekend. Now."

"Love you dad. Can you call Em. I need to get back and mom is with them now." I said.

"Sure son see you soon. Bye." Dad said

"Bye. Dad." with that I hung up and went back into the dining room where my whole world was there giggling and thanking my mom for the peanut butter and jelly.

The woman was smiling at them.

"Mommy these are just as good as yours" Ellie said

My mom visibly tensed

She just sat there and smiled and said "I bet they are better."

"Girls want to go to your old room. See if anything is missing. Mom can you take the girls to their room please." I said

The girls looked to her and said "Please mommy"

She nodded they giggled again and went to their room.

I narrowed my eyes and looked at her and said "I need to know why did you take them and where is my wife?"

"Wait …what? I never took them. I found them by a dumpster in shorts and a thin t-shirt in November. I love them, I put them in therapy, I cared for them. I might not have given birth to them but I love them just as much. I only know what they told me and it isn't pretty they were really hurt when we got them. Oh my sister and brother will be here in a while." She said

"Why on earth should I even believe you?" I asked

Just then the door opened with my loud brother barged in "Squirts where are you uncie is here."

"Uncie, Uncie" they squealed as he picked them up twirling them around I got to the living room just as he picked them up they giggled and he smiled.

Minutes later my dad walked in. Em had just put my girls down. "Grampie, we missed you." they jumped into his arms.

"My little ones" dad said kissing them and he was hugging them and crying.

Just then Emmett seen the woman behind me "You where did you go that night? Who are you and why did you leave the ball" Em looked confused

I was even more confused "Umm….what?" I said

"Yeah, Eddie remember I told you of the girl that weasel Newton and his friend were harassing her. You fixed my hands on Monday remember. I beat the shit out of them. I met Ali there, and man she can talk. It was the conference you were suppose to go." Emmett said

"I'm so sorry. Mike was an old boyfriend and I refused to sleep with him. I was so embarrassed and I had to get out of there. Thanks again." she said

"So what is your name Love?" I said

She smiled and blushed "My name is Bella Swan."

"Daddy meet mommy, mommy meet daddy" Sophie said.

"Girls will you help grannie set the table for lunch I need to talk to your mommy?"

They looked to Bella again she nodded again and I was so pissed, just because they didn't need her permission.

"You know they aren't leaving this house with you. I cant allow that." I said

"Umm…Excuse me …What?" Bella said.

"Are you stupid or something? They aren't leaving." I spat at her

Just then the door opened A man and a woman both blondes were standing in my house and they looked pissed off.

"BELLS GET YOUR STUFF WE ARE LEAVING THIS MOMENT!" she shouted at me.

"How dare you speak to her like that. We need to leave. Until morning when we can discuss this like adults." the blonde male said.

"My children are not going anywhere with you." I said

"Wait ….lets not be to hasty….Princess.. We just seen our girls after 3 years you don't really think we will just let you leave now do you." Emmett said

I am behind pissed at these intruders

"Bells are you alright?" the blonde asked

Just then we heard glass breaking in the kitchen and Ellie screaming.

Bella POV

I went into the kitchen Sophie was in the middle of the room, Ellie was a few feet away. And glass was everywhere. Sophie was bleeding from her hands Edward's mother was frozen. I went immediately to my girls picked them up carried them to the bathroom.

Ellie was crying but not bleeding anywhere. I am whispering to both of them to keep them calm.

There was a medicial bag on the counter I figured it was Emmett's but I didn't care my girl was in trouble.

Sophie has a piece of glass in her thumb. I took it out just after I put a local anesthetic on her thumb, and 2 stitches to hold the wound together. I kissed her thumb and told her that she was ok. I didn't realize I had company, they were just watching me.

Sophie started crying "I dropped two glasses momma, I'm sorry Auntie sounded so mad. Is grannie gonna be mad at me"

"Awh don't worry baby everything is alright, you know Auntie is a little loud sometimes. Can you go to your old room for a little while I need to use the toilet. Grannie would never be mad at you for that it was an accident."

"Alright momma." both girls said and went to their room.

As soon as they left the bathroom to go to their room I had to sit down on the toilet. I have glass in my feet and it hurts like a bitch, and I am bleeding all over the floor.

"Isabella?" I looked up and Edward was there in the bathroom he shut the door behind him.

"Let me look at your feet for I know you have glass in them. Since there is a trail of blood all the way in here." Edward said

I nodded trying not to cry out.

"Shit"

"Ow"

"This is going to take a minute does Em have anymore local anesthetic in there? That way this don't hurt you."

"I'll just have Jasper come in here and do this he is a doctor as am I."

"Don't worry my dear I am a doctor as well. I can handle a little glass wounds."

Nice ok I'll play nice.

"So want to tell me a little about your self, Edward."

"How about you tell me about yourself first, and how you got my children, you seem to care for them a great deal."

"Ok ..I am almost 27 years old, I am a pediatric Doctor, I worked very hard to get where I am today. I along with Jas and Rose have an office in Seattle. I found my girls next to a dumpster the 16th of November, they didn't have on a coat. There was snow on the ground, and it was so cold. The girls were so dirty. At the time I didn't have a car so I picked them up carried them to my apartment two blocks away. Called Seth he came and took us to the police station. After 3 months I was awarded temporary custody. The whole time I had many ads in many papers about my girls. At 6 months I was awarded full custody. I care for them like my own. I love them, and have since that first day. Your turn Edward"

"I am 30 years old, I am the best pediatric heart surgeon on the east coast. I married Victoria my wife 6 years ago when we found out we were pregnant with Sophia and Tori. We just went to a court house. Oh wait Ellie you call her Ellie because Sophia couldn't say Tori, but she could say Ellie. Vic was so mad at her but she was just a baby. That day June 5th was the worst day of my life I lost my world. Just because I was to busy to go shopping. I had an important, difficult case two in fact. I had to prepare for surgery of a newborn, and 3 year old with Tetralogy Of Fallot. I took 6 months off after those cases I looked everywhere for my family, but nothing. The police said they were dead. Finally my dad for a better word made me go back to work. I never stopped looking."

.

He seemed lost for words at this time.

"I promised the girls that I would keep looking for you Sophie remembered you and Ellie even less, but I tried to have them remember you. You are their father and I had to find you. If I was in your spot I would want someone to find me and give me back my girls."

"Thank You Isabella, Well I am finished with your feet. Bandaged they may still be numb though."

"Well lunch should be ready and mom should have cleaned up the kitchen."

With that I tried to stand up but I almost fell Edward caught me.

"Just one more question how did you deal with the pain you carried both girls out of the kitchen an fixed Sophie up with no problem and sent them away before you even worried about yourself."

"Umm…. I didn't even know that I had glass in my feet, my priority is and always will be the girls and they could have gotten hurt in there, plus Sophie was hurt I had to help her."

He carried me into the kitchen where his mother, father, Emmett, Rose and Jas were sitting at the table. Just staring at each other.

Well isn't this nice the glass was gone and the table was set. All except the food.

"Sophie and Ellie lunch is ready come to the table sweeties."

Dinner was a quiet affair the only ones that was talking was Sophie and Ellie.

Sophie was talking to Emmett, and Ellie was talking to Rose. At the end of lunch I could feel my feet.

"Do you have some socks mine are at the hotel?" he got up and left he came back handing me some socks.

Edward's mom was clearing off the table. Everyone was saying how good the food was.

Edward's father spoke up "Well we need to be going. Esme dear we will be back with dinner tonight."

"Wait …. What…" Sophie was panicking "we don't have to leave yet do we?"

"No sweetie we will stay for a little while."

"Mommy can I talk to my daddy for a minute first …..Alone! In my old room" Sophie requested

"Umm. Sure sweetie." with that she and Edward got up and left .

My brave little girl went to her old room as she put it.
