Last time: Edward's POV
.
Thank you for caring so much when um I woke up.
"Your part of this family," Rose began.
"We got your back," Emmett added flexing his muscles.
As you noticed I was tired, Edward and I had been having a very serious conversation, and it got me thinking. It sort of influenced my thoughts and I had a nightmare.
She was projecting her thoughts to all of us. I held her closer to me as I ran my fingers through her fur.
"Would you like to talk about it?" Esme asked hoping to be of some sort of help.
Yeah. In my dream we were happy. Edward had just… but her thoughts cut off.
She turned in my hands to look at me, then I heard her only speaking to me…Um…I think I have to explain our earlier conversation for them to understand my dream…but are you okay with that?
I couldn't stop the smile that appeared n my face. Of course love. In this family secrets aren't kept for long. Plus Alice probably knows already and the others think they know.
I love you Eddy.
I love you my Kitten.
Chapter 7: Accepting Love
.
Edward's POV
Bella and I stared at each other for who knows how long before I heard three angry throats clear.
I pulled back from my Kitten but didn't let her go completely. You or me?
Me my love, or they may kill you.
Then she turned into Bella, but stayed in my lap. "Okay so Edward and I had been in his meadow…"
"Our meadow" I interrupted
She smiled and continued, "Fine, we were at our meadow because when we had gone to look at furniture we both realized or more like admitted that we…want each other." Carlisle, Emmett and Jasper growled loudly, "Now guys calm down. We love each other." Now the girls were restraining their husbands, "If you won't calm down you will never understand anything!"
Bella was getting upset, no one makes my Kitten upset, so I did the logical thing, I snarled, "THE THREE OF YOU NEED TO SHUT THE FUCK UP AND LISTEN TO WHET WE HAVE TO TELL YOU! ISABELLA WANTS TO TELL YOU SO I WILL LET HER BE THE ONE TO DO SO, BUT SO HELP ME IF YOU UPSET HER AGAIN DURRING THIS CONVERSATION WE WILL LEAVE!" The three glared at me but knew I wasn't lying. They sat with their wives in their laps, just in case.
Bella smiled at me then continued, "We decided that we had to talk about us before doing anything we could regret. I want you guys to know he has been a perfect gentleman. Maybe not for the times I was born in but definitely more than present times. We went to the meadow and we talked about how we felt and what we wanted. We both want to wait to get to the next step in our relationship until were … um…married." She finished in a wonderful blush.
Before the guys had time to think about killing me, or the girls for that matter since Bella had no ring, I spoke up, "I have not yet proposed but promised to do so. I love her and we have both saved ourselves for the one we love. So we want to wait until were married because really if we have waited so long, whats a few more months or a couple years?"
YEARS? I heard my love exclaim.
MONTHS, definitely months my love. I just don't want to die.
Carlisle was the first to recover, "You want to marry Isabella?"
"Yes." I responded strongly.
"I can feel your love for each other but, will you be able to keep your temper in school? At the mall? How possessive will you be with her?" Jasper scrutinized.
"I do love her, with all my heart," I paused to kiss mu Kitten's forehead, then sighed, "My temper will be a problem, but I know that my Bella only loves me, I know that what people think means nothing. I will keep in control and if someone were to…act on their thoughts I would deal with the situation accordingly, and if I were to lose it or feel as if I were to do so I would go to her."
I took a deep breath and continued, "She calms me instantly and my anger disappears or is at least manageable. As far as possessiveness goes well, she is mine and no one will ever change that, She loves me and I love her and I will never forget that and I will never forget that thought she can take care of herself, she has done it for too long. Though I know that sometimes she will have to take care of things herself I will take care of the rest."
"Fare enough. What about living arrangement? Do you two truly know everything about each other?" Emmett said staring at us.
"Well, were not sure where we'll live, but we would like to stay close to you guys. And as for knowing everything about each other, well that's why we are going to wait a little." Bella answered for me, so I just nodded.
The guys looked at us for a while longer, "Okay but if you break her heart," Carlisle began.
"We will rip you apart" Emmett continued
"And burn you piece by piece." Jasper finished.
"I wouldn't expect anything, less," I responded truthfully.
Then just as we both had let out breaths of relief when the girls cleared their throats. The guys snickered and sat back to watch the show.
This is going to be worse than the guys.
Yea but we're in this together.
Forever my Kitten.
Eternity Eddy.
"So we are going to ask some questions and you will answer, they first ones will be for Edward, depending on your answers Bella will be next. So if you want to spare her answer correctly!" Esme scolded.
I took a deep breath, "Alright I will do my best," I responded.
Esme, "If she tells you some sort of secret that she really doesn't want any of us to know what will you do?"
"I will keep it a secret as long as I can, and would never reveal it willingly." I responded.
Alice, "When she is sick?"
"I will watch over her all night, and give her anything she needs or wants," I countered.
Rose, "What if she's quite for a long time and seems distracted,"
"I'll ask her what is wrong but if she doesn't want to talk about it I won't push her but I'll comfort her," I answered.
Esme, "If she gets mad for whatever reason you'd…"
"Follow her and talk it out, I would hug her tightly and wouldn't let her go. I'd tell her I love her and apologize for whatever upset her, but I wouldn't lie about it being necessarily wrong." I finished
Esme, "Explain"
I sighed, "Let's say she gets mad because I won't let her come with me somewhere dangerous, I would apologize for making her mad but try to convince her to stay home. There is no need for her to be put in danger."
Alice "If she tries to pull away"
"I'll pull her back into my arms and kiss her, and hug her," by now there are tears in my Kitten's eyes.
Rose, "If she cusses at you for being a pigheaded bastard?"
"I would kiss her senseless and tell her I love her a million times," I said kissing away Bella's escaped tears.
Esme looked at them, "if she starts crying?"
"I'll kiss away the tears and hold her tight," I chuckled
Alice "If she decides to ignore you for being stupid?"
"I'll follow her around until she at least yells at me, then I would do what I said I would if she started cussing at me," I responded.
Rose, "If she's scared?"
"I will protect her with my life," I said forcefully.
Rose, "If she runs up to you crying?"
"I'll hold her in the safety of my arms and ask whose neck needs breaking," I said a little mad that someone would make my Kitten cry.
Alice, "If she won't look into your eyes?"
"I won't stop starring until she does," I countered.
Esme, "If she seems worried and spaces off?"
"I'll reassure her that everything will be fine until she believes it," I rubbed my Bella's back as she cryed silently, I whimpered slightly. Are you alright love?
Yea, happy tears Eddy, happy tears.
Alice, "Okay last one, if she suddenly grabs your hand you'll…"
"Finally," I sighed, "I would give her hand a squeeze and try to comfort her by playing with her fingers. If that didn't work I'd pull her into me."
The guys had just sat there looking from the girls to me, depending on whose turn it was to speak.
My Bella hid her face into my neck as I snuggled into her hair. I looked into the eyes of our family members, they nodded.
I lifted my Kitten into my arms and carried her upstairs. I lay us down on the bed. She curled up into me and sobbed. I kissed away some tears then began to whisper into her ear "I love you Kitten. I will always love you. Nothing could keep me from you. I love you. You are my world." I repeated it over and over. Soon she calmed.
Edward, I love you too. And I'm sorry I'm crying it's just everything you said… they really are happy tears. You're the best guy a girl could ever ask for.
Yes, I chuckled, But I'm only yours.
"I love you Edward Cullen," she whispered as her eye lids drooped closed.
"I love you too, Isabella Swan. Now sleep." I kissed her forehead and began to hum a melody that popped into my mind.
- - - - - - - Time skip - - - - - -
I woke up my Kitten at 6:30. We had to go to school.
She got ready in my room, and I got ready in the guest bathroom. When we went down stairs everyone was waiting for us.
"We would like to let the two of you know that though we love you both dearly, accepting and getting accustomed to your relationship will take time. However we will not try to separate you, we can see the love you have for one another. Just please keep it PG13 until after the wedding." Carlisle spoke on everyone's behalf.
Bella ran into his arms, "Thank you so much Carlisle. I know that I am much older than you but when you've been around you have been like a father to me. It means so much to me for you to accept us."
He was shocked but hugged her tightly, I have never seen her this happy, I'm proud to be here for her. I wonder if she could ever actually call me father.
Then Bella began to cry, "Of course I can…I just wasn't sure if you would be okay with it."
Carlisle was stunned and everyone else was confused. I decided to clear things up. "I'm no longer the only one in this house who reads minds." Carlisle understood and tightened his hold on Bella. "Carlisle is happy that my Kitten is so happy. He's proud of her, and was thinking about whether or not she would ever call him father."
Esme's smile widened, Rose and Alice beamed at the thought, and Emmett and Jasper just chuckled slightly.
"I love you daddy," we all froze as we heard the love in Bella's voice.
"I love you too little one," Carlisle responded kissing her forehead.
He motioned for Esme to join them.
Bella felt her come into the hug she turned into her embrace, "I love you too mommy" she whispered with just as much love as she had when she spoke to Carlisle.
Esme just sobbed quietly, a tearless happy cry.
"I think you guys need to get to school but when you get home we can talk about that nightmare of yours, okay?" Carlisle said hating to have to let his newest, youngest daughter go.
She nodded and returned her hand to mine. We followed my siblings to school in my Volvo and prepared for the stares and rumors.
When we arrived at school everything went as usual, guys and girls fumed and lusted at the same time. The only difference was that when I helped my Bella from the car and kissed her gently, everyone's thoughts went blank.
Then it began…
Fuck I wanted her….
Hell I wouldn't mind I three way with them…
Fuck Cullen hasn't been interested in anyone and now he goes for the new girl…
Shit she looks sexy…
I bet I still have a chance with her…
Bella?
Yes Edward.
Don't leave my side. I may lose my temper.
No problem love, if I leave some skank may think she has a chance.
The day went on with people staring at us, and fantasizing. Thankfully our schedules matched and we were able to sit next to each other in every class, except lunch where my Kitten sat in my lap.
- - - - - - - Time skip - - - - - -
We arrived home just as a thunder storm hit.
Every time the thunder roared Bella would jump slightly. She hates thunder.
Carlisle got home soon after us 'kids'.
"Okay so Bella, do you feel comfortable telling us about your nightmare?" Carlisle asked as we all sat in the living room.
"Yes daddy" she said before taking a deep breath, "Okay, so after deciding that we wanted to get married before going any further in out relationship, Edward and I went to meet you guys and the wolves. I fell asleep because I was tiered and didn't think that I would be needed much. I dreamt that the…"
She shivered, "Rose pass me that blanket," I said as I rubbed my Kitten's back. I wrapped her in the blanket and held her close… I knew this would be bad.
"I was back with the Volturi, they were…punishing me for not doing something right. Then it changed, you were all there, and they were hurting you for trying to help me escape. As you remember I told you guys that I can read minds, well over the years I learned to listen to Aro's thoughts from where ever I am. Last night I opened that connection…it was an accident, but I heard his thoughts."
She turned in my lap to only look at me… "They know where I am. They are sending a tracker that works for them, his name is James. His mate Victoria and their friend Laurent have been ordered to find and kill me. They were told that I was on the West coast near the north but that's all they know because then my shield doesn't let them look any closer." Her eyes were full of fear. "I can't separate the dream from the facts, I'm not sure what part it true, and what part is my imagination."
"Isabella…you don't need to worry. We will stand by you, no matter what." Carlisle said.
"We will protect you, you are our little sister" Emmett added,
"You may be older than us in vampire years," Jasper went on,
"But you are the youngest in human years," Alice continued,
"You were robbed of a childhood, and we will make sure that your years of living in terror never return," Rose finished.
"You are my baby girl, and if someone wants to hurt you then they have to go through me" Esme snarled.
We all looked over at her. She is never violent, yet here she is snarling more than any of us. Shit I thought mothers weren't supposed to have favorites. But looking around at my family I realized that she wasn't the only one with a favorite, but looking around I also realized the only favorite was Bella.
I started laughing because really, before her if any of the guys looked at a girl like they were now their wives would castrate them. Then there are the girls none of them would admit that they missed being motherly, yet here they are; all protecting my sweet Bella like ferocious mama bears.
Bella began laughing with me, listening to my thoughts. Everyone looked at us as if we were crazy.
I heard my Kitten's voice in their minds; Edward just realized that apparently Esme isn't the only one acting out of character. He is under the impression that if any of the guys looked at a girl like they were looking at me now their wives would castrate the. And that the girls would have never have admitted that they missed being motherly, yet here they are all protecting me like ferocious mama bears. And apparently everyone now has a favorite. But they all have the same favorite…me.
They all laughed, but agreed.
My sweet Bella yawned, "Time for my Kitten to get some sleep." I said picking her up and carrying her up the stairs.
I heard Carlisle think toward me as he and Esme went to hunt. I am calling our friends in Denali, we will need help if things go wrong. Eleazer may know something that can help us.
My Bella fell asleep instantly.
