A/N: Okay so I'm thinking the next couple of chapters will be in both Bella and Edward's POVs. I will switch back and forth so that everything gets covered. There's going to be a lemon, so I'll mark it for you as usual. Enjoy =D
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Twilight. Yeah, hard to believe, right?

It has been almost two weeks since Edward and I found out the babies' genders. We have spent that entire time looking for patterns for their nurseries and discussing names, and having ideas thrown at us from every single one of our friends and family members. We have agreed not to buy anything for the kids' rooms just yet; Esme threatened us with bodily harm if we bought anything without her, so we decided to wait until after the wedding when we are settled into our new house and school. Alice has already begun plans for a baby shower with the help of Rosalie.
The house was our priority right now. All of the guys, including Charlie and Carlisle, were heading up to Seattle this weekend to get both houses ready for our move at the end of the summer. Our friends were moving into their place while Edward and I are on our honeymoon. Their place is in great condition, so the guys are just going to work on painting it to the girls' specifications and making sure everything is in working order.
Edward and mine's house needs a little more work. There is painting to do, of course, as well as quite a few small projects throughout the entire house. We are going to have our kitchen appliances and our washer and dryer delivered while we are on our honeymoon, and Emmett and Jasper are going to set it up for us.
Edward and I will make another trip up next weekend; Esme helped us order the majority of our furniture, and we need to be there when it is delivered so the deliverymen know where to set up. We purchased our dining room set and the bedroom and living room furniture, all of which had to be approved by Esme, Alice, and Rose. There was a pull table and a small living room set in the Cullens' basement that they were letting us take to put into the family room. We were going to buy our office furniture and guest room furniture after we got settled in; the kids' rooms were going to be the last to be decorated, as we wanted to wait until after the baby shower.
The guys were leaving in the morning for their long weekend, so I was staying with Edward tonight. Us girls were all staying here this weekend to have our own fun; apparently we had shopping to do for our homes and the babies. I wasn't sure what exactly we were going to buy, but Esme insisted on a trip to Port Angeles. We also had a day of relaxation planned. Rosalie booked us all appointments at the spa to receive massages, manicures, and pedicures to "relieve the stress of moving, planning a wedding, and bringing twins into the world", the last one being for me. Edward, of course, made them all promise to watch me closely all weekend, and make sure I ate right and got plenty of sleep.
"Do you have everything packed for tomorrow?" I was laying across Edward's bed, and he was lying beside me, running his fingers gently through my hair. It was such a simple gesture, one that he did absentmindedly, but with my hormones all over the place it was incredibly erotic. I was trying my best to contain myself and not pounce on him, although I know he wouldn't mind. Edward seemed to actually want me more now that I'm pregnant; he claimed that me carrying his children was a huge turn on.
"Mhmm. We are picking the guys up at six in the morning so we can have the entire day to work on Jasper and Emmett's place. Tomorrow will be devoted to our house," he said this last part with his signature crooked grin on his face. "Then on Sunday we will sleep in a little and grab some lunch before heading back to Forks around one in the afternoon." I nodded my head as he filled me in on their plans for the weekend. I have to admit, it was a relief knowing that they were taking care of all the hard work, while us girls simply pointed to what we wanted and where it needed to go. I must say, we got the better end of the deal.
I rolled onto my side to face Edward and cuddled into his chest. His arm automatically wrapped around my waist and pulled me closer. I reached my right hand up and tangled it in his unruly bronze hair and pulled him down so I could place a kiss to his jaw. He made a low sound in the back of his throat, and I felt his length press against my thigh. I smiled to myself at my success and continued to place soft kisses down his throat.
"Bella, are you trying to seduce me?" he whispered huskily, his hand moving from my waist to cup my ass firmly.
"Maybe. Is it working?" I murmured, my lips never breaking contact with his skin.
He rolled me over so that he was hovering above me, his forearms bearing all of his weight, and he attached his lips to mine firmly. I guess that's a 'yes'.
*******
I sighed contentedly and began to tug at the hem of his shirt; guessing what I wanted, he quickly sat up and tugged it over his head, then went on to remove his jeans. He fell back on top of my in only his boxers and started to trail kisses down my neck, unbuttoning my shirt to expose more skin. He slid my shirt off my shoulders once he had the buttons undone, and he growled hungrily before attaching his lips to my skin once again. He sucked on my hardened nipple through the fabric of my bra, forcing a whimper out of my lips. I started tugging off my jeans and shimmied them down to my ankles, kicking them onto the floor at the end of the bed.
Edward placed butterfly kisses across my chest, then worked his way down my torso. When he reached my abdomen he paused to place a sweet kiss on the highest part and whispered his love to our children. My eyes began to water and my hormones won control of my body; I ripped off my bra and slid down my panties in less than two seconds. Edward looked into my eyes, his own smoldering with lust, and quickly slipped out of his boxers.
He began to lower himself between my legs, but I slipped my fingers into his hair and gently tugged to get his attention. He looked up at me questioningly and I simply shook my head at him.
"I need you, Edward. Now," I demanded. The fire in his eyes flared and he practically threw himself on top of me, his lips crashing onto mine with more intensity than they ever have before. I felt his tip at my entrance, spreading apart my slick folds. The next moment he had thrust into my in one swift movement, and I gasped in pleasure.
He began pumping his cock inside of me forcefully, and I moaned into his chest. His breath became ragged and I could feel the sweat dripping off his body onto my own. I wrapped my legs around his waist to pull him further into me and he groaned loudly, dropping his forehead onto my shoulder.
"Fuck, Bella...so tight...ungh!" his moans caused the familiar flame in my stomach to burn faster.
"Ungh...Edward...I'm gonna...fuck!" His thumb quickly found my clit and started rubbing furiously, sending a jolt of pleasure through my system.
My entire body tensed in the next second, and I screamed Edward's name, every nerve ending tingling in pure ecstasy. My walls clamped down around his shaft and he spilled into me, my name pouring from his lips. He collapsed on top of me, both of our bodies slick with sweat.
*******
Edward rolled onto his back after a few minutes and pulled me up to his chest. He pressed his lips to my forehead before wrapping his duvet around us. I placed a light kiss on his chest and closed my eyes, completely relaxed.
"I love you so much, Bella. More than anything," he whispered into the dark. His arm tightened around my waist and he lifted me up, turning me onto my other side and pulling my back into his chest.
"I love you too, Edward." I sighed happily and drifted off to sleep.

I woke up early and slipped quietly out of bed, trying not to wake Bella. I stood next to her for a moment, and reached over to gently kiss her forehead, before a placing a kiss to her abdomen. She was absolutely beautiful, and I just couldn't get over the fact that she was all mine, and that she was having my children. Our son and daughter were growing inside of her, and I knew that no two children on Earth would be as loved as they already are.
I got dressed quickly and headed downstairs to grab some breakfast before we had to take off. Carlisle was already seated at the kitchen island with Esme, and both of them smiled at me as I entered the room. I ate a bowl of cereal and listened to the two of them discuss our plans for the weekend. A few minutes later Carlisle went to throw our bags in the back of the SUV we had rented, and I washed out our breakfast dishes.
"Are you guys leaving soon?" I heard Bella ask from behind me. I turned around to see her standing in the doorway in a pair of my boxers and my Forks High track team shirt. Her hair hung in messy mahogany waves around her shoulders and she had one hand placed lovingly on her stomach.
"Yeah, Carlisle is loading the car right now. Did you sleep well? It's still early; you should go back to bed, love," I said. I know she hates when I worry about her, but I also know that she has been tired lately, and I want her to take care of herself this weekend while I'm not here to help her. I had crossed the room while I spoke and now had her wrapped in my arms with her head resting against my chest.
"I know, I just wanted to see you before you left. Is it pathetic that I already miss you?" she asked with a chuckle. My heart swelled and I pressed my lips to the top of her head.
"Of course not. I'm going to miss you as well. I will be thinking of you every second I am gone. Try to have fun with the girls this weekend; you need to relax a little," I encouraged.
"I'll try," she sighed. I bent down and picked her up in my arms, causing to her to squeal and laugh lightly. I carried her back up to my room and set her down gently on the bed, then wrapped her up in the blankets. I pressed a lingering kiss on her lips and brushed her bangs away from her forehead.
"Get some sleep, angel. I'll call you when we get to Seattle." I gave her one last kiss and rested my forehead against hers. "I love you."
"I love you too, Edward." She tilted her chin up to kiss me sweetly, and I headed out of the room, closing it softly behind me. I could already feel the hole in my chest forming as the distance grew between us. I cheered myself up slightly by thinking about all of the plans I had for fixing up the house this weekend; there were quite a few projects I had in mind specifically for Bella. I smiled slightly to myself and climbed into the passenger seat of the car, and we headed off to pick up the guys for a weekend of sweaty work and male bonding; it was going to be a long three days.
A/N: Mmm sweaty Edward, Emmett, and Jasper; I wish I could tag along =P The next chapter will be about the weekend. I will probably do one chapter for the guys, and one for the girls. I am trying to register for the new semester, so I'm a little busy this week; but I will try to upload both chapters tomorrow afternoon. R&R please!
