I didn't even realise that my dad had left me alone until I heard the door closing behind me. I looked down at my angel and took her right hand in mine.

"Bella, I am so sorry that I couldn't protect you, that I brought you into my fucked up life. I promise that nothing will ever come between us again. I am going to quit acting and become a full time father and boyfriend. I know that we are too young to think about marriage, but I promise that someday you will be my wife. We are a family Bella, I love you more then my whole life and I promise that I am never going to let you down again. You, Riley, and Arabella are my life Bella," I said, tears escaping from my eyes.

I buried my head in my hands and cried like a baby as I waited for my girl to wake up.

Chapter 32

BPOV

"No, no! Please don't take my babies," I yelled, but all Emily did was smirk at me.

"They're not yours anymore. Don't worry, Jake and I will make sure that our daughter has the best of everything. Isn't that right, Jakey," she said, looking up at a smug Jacob as she held my son and daughter in her arms.

All of a sudden Riley lets out a loud scream.

"Please give me Riley. He needs me," I begged only for it to fall on deaf ears.

"Eddie! Don't you want to calm down your son," she called.

Out of nowhere Edward appeared with that nurse on his arm.

"Emily, hand him over to me," he said. Emily handed Riley over to Edward and I sighed in relief, at least one of my babies was safe.

"Edward! Please give me Riley," I begged but Edward looked at me as if he hated me.

"Isabella you can barely look after yourself, let alone our children. Arabella is better off with Emily and Jacob, Riley is better off with my new girlfriend and I. We can give them everything that you can't," he said as he walked away, my son in one hand and the other wrapped around the nurse.

"EDWARD! EDWARD! Please come back. Please don't leave me alone. Please don't take my children away from me. EDWARD!"

"Bella, Bella, wake up! Your safe now, it is just a dream."

I slowly opened my eyes and saw Edward sitting in the chair next me. I grabbed his hand and held it close to my heart as the tears began to fall.

He leaned over to wipe my tears away with his thumb as he stared lovingly in my eyes.

"Bella, Bella, my Bella," he whispered without breaking eye contact.

"Oh Edward, I was so scared," I cried as he wrapped his arms around me, pulling me close.

"You're safe now," he whispered into my hair, but all I could do was continue to cry.

"I thought I would never see you again," I whimpered in between sobs.

"It's Ok, I'm here baby and I will never leave your side again," he said soothingly.

I continued to cry in his arms until the tiredness took over and I fell into a peaceful sleep.

EPOV

My heart broke all over again as I held my crying girlfriend in my arms. I never wanted to let her go, it was only when I heard her soft breathing and I knew she had fallen asleep that I gently laid her back down in her bed, sitting back as I watched her sleep.

I heard the door open, but I couldn't look away from my sleeping beauty.

"Hey sweetie, are you doing alright," my mother asked. I looked over my shoulder at her and nodded before focusing my attention back on Bella.

"Edward I know that you want to be here, but you can't spend all your time here with Bella. You have two children who are at another hospital, who don't have either of their parents with them. You know that your father and I are helping all we can, along with Bella's family, but those babies need you. Arabella is ready to be discharged but Riley needs to stay for a few more days. Esme and I fixed up your beach house and it is all ready for you to take home your family," she said.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. How could she expect me to cope with my children when I was still in a wheelchair, she must have been out of her mind.

"Edward, your father and I have arranged for you to have a live in nurse to help you with the children, as well as a housekeeper. We hired them on a temporary basis, at least until yourself and Bella are both back on your feet," mum said. It was as if she had heard my thoughts.

I didn't have the energy to fight her on it, so I nodded once again as I turned my attention back to Bella, she looked so beautiful and peaceful as she slept. It was then that I remembered the promise I had made to myself.

"Mum, would it be possible for you to get in touch with Ted and Emmett for me? There is something I need to speak to them about," I said.

"Edward I can contact Ted for you, but Emmett is out in the waiting room with everybody else hoping to see Bella," she said.

I shook my head in disbelief. What the fuck was everybody doing in the waiting room? Why didn't they come in the room to see her for themselves. It was almost as if my mother could read my thoughts again when she answered my unspoken question.

"You see, Bella hasn't given an approved visitors list just yet. Considering the circumstances, they can't allow just any one to come in. The only reason you are allowed in here is because Dr Tanner wrote in Bella's notes that you were her fiancee, Alec is allowed because he is her twin brother and I am allowed in because I am her OB-GYN and she recently gave birth. We have to wait for Bella to give an approved visitor's list before any one else can come in," she explained.

She gave me a little smile and a quick tap on the shoulder before leaving the room.

I looked once again at Bella's sleeping form and could feel my eyes drooping, I closed my eyes for a few minutes and the next thing I knew, someone rubbing my knuckles with their thumb. My eyes snapped open only to find Bella's deep brown eyes looking back at me.

"Did you have a good sleep baby," she giggled.

I leaned down, planting open mouthed kisses on her throat. She moaned in pleasure as I made my way from her throat to her collar bone. I only pulled away when I heard a throat clearing behind me and I sat up to find Dr Tanner smiling at us.

"I am sorry to interrupt but I need to examine Isabella," she said before coming over to the bed and looking at me.

"Why don't you step outside, I will call you back in when I am finished," she said.

I nodded before leaning over to kiss Bella's forehead and wheeled myself out of the room. The door had barely closed when Emmett came running over to me.

"Hey bro, how is my little sis doing," he asked.

"She is doing alright, but I am a little surprised that she didn't ask about the babies just yet. Speaking of which, do you know if anyone is over at Mount Carmel Hospital with them," I asked.

Emmett nodded.

"Rose, Esme and Alice are over with the babies. I don't know if mum told you, but my little Arab is ready to leave the hospital and come home. Riley needs to stay there for a few more days," he explained.

"I know I should be excited that my children are alive, healthy and ready to come home, but I feel like that excitement has been overshadowed by my injury and Bella's abduction. I was looking forward to the time that Bella and I could take them home together," I said.

Emmett threw his arms around my shoulder and led me away from Bella's room towards the cafeteria.

"I tell you what, why don't we go to the cafeteria and grab a sandwich, a cup of coffee and talk about it. Mum said that you wanted to speak to Ted and I about something, so maybe you can fill me in on what is going on in that brain of yours," he said as we entered the cafeteria.

*~AA~*

One week had passed since Bella had woken up and she was finally being released. She had begged me two days ago to collect our daughter and take her home, but I explained that I wanted us to take her home together. After hours of arguing she had finally agreed that once she was released we would take her home together. The doctors had told us that Riley should be released within the week. He was finally out of NICU but they needed to be sure that he was fit enough to leave the hospital.

The twins were now six and a half weeks old and I was so excited for Bella and I to finally be a family. I was out of the wheelchair and a walking cast had been fitted. I was still limping a bit, but I couldn't be happier to no longer be confined to my wheelchair

I had told Emmett about my plans to retire from show business a week ago in the cafeteria and he took it better then I thought. His words were 'I don't blame you and I would be surprised if you did go back to work. The main thing you should be concentrating on right now is your family.' I was happy to hear that, so the only thing left to handle was to explain everything to Ted. He had been my manager from the beginning and all I could do was hope that he was as understanding as Emmett was.

I hobbled into Bella's room and broke into a big wide smile when I saw her sitting on the side of the bed with two teddy bears in her arms. She was just as excited as I that we would be seeing our children today, that we would be taking Arabella home.

"Hey Baby, are you ready to blow this joint," I grinned.

"Yes, more then ready! I just have to wait for Dr Tanner to come with my discharge papers," she smiled.

I limped over to her side, placing my hands on each side of her face before pressing my lips softly to hers.

"I love you, Isabella Swan," I whispered.

"I love you too, Edward Masen," she answered.

I was about to kiss her again when we heard a throat clearing behind us. I turned to see Dr Tanner standing there with a wheelchair, grinning like a cheshire cat.

"Everytime I come in here to see my patient, you are making out with each other. If you are not careful, Bella might end up being the mother of a third child by the time she is eighteen years old," Dr Tanner chuckled.

Bella looked up at with me with a smile shining in her eyes before directing her attention to Dr Tanner.

"Do you have my discharge papers? I can't wait to get out of here," she said.

Dr Tanner took the papers out of her folder and handed them over to Bella.

"You know, if it wasn't for the fact that you were a new mother and desperately needed to get to your children, I might be offended that you wanted to escape my clutches so badly," she joked.

Bella and I looked at each other before turning back to Dr Tanner.

"We will certainly miss you Doctor, but if you don't give Bella her discharge papers soon I might have to commit murder," I chuckled.

"No need for violence, here are the discharge papers," she smirked handing Bella the papers as well as a prescription for pain killers.

"Bella, get in the wheelchair so that we can leave," I ordered taking the wheelchair from the Doctor's hands. However all Bella did was shake her head.

"No way am I getting into that thing! I am walking out of here," she said.

I looked at the Doctor for some help.

"Bella, you need to get into to wheelchair, it is hospital proceedure," Dr Tanner said. Bella continued to shake her head, proving just how fucking stubborn she was.

"Isabella Marie Swan, get in the wheelchair! If you don't, then it will only delay us and remember the quicker we are out of here, the earlier we can be with Arabella and Riley," I said.

Bella glared at me in frustration before sitting down in the wheelchair in defeat. I smiled to myself as I rolled her out of the room and out of the hospital.

*~AA~*

The drive to the Mount Carmel Hospital passed by in a blur. Sam drove as I still wasn't able to drive due to my walking cast. He was speeding so badly that I was surprised that he wasn't pulled over.

The next thing I knew, Sam was pulling up outside the hospital. As Seth opened my side, and helped me out, I was surprised to see Bella ignoring her injury's and jumped out of the car. I wasn't surprised to find Paparazzi waiting outside the entrance. Once the vultures saw me, they quickly surrounded us with Sam trying to keep them at arms length so that Bella and I could walk through.

Edward, what are your plans now?

Isabella, is it true you had an affair with Jacob Black when you were captured?

Edward, Isabella, is it true you're engaged?

Edward, are you quitting acting?

We ignored the questions as we continued to get through them. After what seemed like forever, we finally got through the doors and made our way towards the NICU.

We looked through the glass and my eyes filled with tears. This was the first time since Bella had been abducted that we were seeing our children together. I looked over at Bella and noticed that her eyes were also glassy with tears at our reunion. I tapped at the glass window for the nurse's attention, she smiled as she looked our way before she and her colleague picked up Arabella and Riley, bringing them towards the window for us to see.

Bella and I were so busy waving and making funny faces that we didn't hear anyone coming up behind us, until they tapped me on the shoulder.

I turned around to find Dr Murphy behind us.

"So today is the big day huh? You will be taking one of the rugrats home with you," he chuckled. I smiled as I threw my arm around Bella's shoulder.

"Yes, we are so excited! The only thing that could make this moment complete is if we were taking them both home," I explained. Dr Murphy nodded.

"Well as you know Riley had a bad time of it. He is doing well now and we are moving him into the regular nursery today but we would like to keep him for a little longer, just to make sure. Arabella on the other hand is thriving and has been given a clean bill of health. We are very comfortable with her going home with you today," he said. I could do nothing but grin like a fool. Bella on the other hand, turned back around to look at the babies with tears falling from her eyes.

"I just don't like to see them separated," she sobbed with her back to us. I placed my hands on her shoulder and whispered in her ears.

"It won't be long baby; he will be with us soon."

She nodded as she turned around.

"Well shall we go and sign the paper work to take our daughter home," she asked.

Dr Murphy nodded and led us towards his office.

*~AA~*

It had been a week full of excitement since we had brought Arabella home to my beach house. The only thing missing was Riley but just this morning we got a phone call from my mother explaining that the hospital was finally releasing our son.

Flashback

I was just laying Arabella down in her cot when I heard my cell ringing from the bedroom. I ran in and quickly answered it, praying that the sound hadn't woken Bella. She had been up half of the night with a screaming Arabella and was totally exhausted. I took over at six am, and sent her back to bed to get some well-earned rest.

"Hello," I yawned.

"Edward, this is your mother. I'm sorry for calling so early. I hope that I didn't wake you," she said.

I quickly stifled another yawn before answering.

"No mum, I was just putting Arabella in her cot. She was awake all night, Bella just went to sleep an hour ago," I explained.

"Well, I hope you both are prepared for more sleepless nights because Dr Murphy and I believe that Riley is doing so well that you can bring him home today," she said.

I fought the urge to squeal like a girl.

"That's wonderful mum, what time do we need to be at the hospital," I asked excitedly.

"Well Dr Murphy would like to examine him one last time and he doesn't start until noon, so would two o' clock be alright with you," she asked.

"Yes please," I answered, nodding my head.

"Ok, I will be also be at the hospital. I will see you both then," she said.

"I will see you then mother," I said before hanging up the phone and running into the nursery.

I looked over at the two cots and let out a squeal, knowing that the second cot would finally be occupied tonight.

End Flashback

"Hurry up Bella, the quicker we collect Riley, the earlier we will be home with him," I yelled before looking down at Arabella in my arms.

"Are you excited too? Your brother will be coming home today," I cooed. She looked up at me with her big green eyes and it was almost as if she was thinking 'are you crazy, of course I'm excited'.

I couldn't believe just how lucky I was to have a beautiful daughter, a handsome son and a gorgeous girlfriend. When I think back to how I had reacted when I first found out Bella was pregnant, it made my heart hurt. How could I have treated my love like a piece of shit, wanting her to abort my two precious children? I was so lost in my self-pity that I hadn't realised that Bella had walked into the living room until she cleared her throat.

I looked up at her and forgot what I was thinking about.

There standing in front of me was perfection. She looked absolutely delicious in a floral dress, it hit just above the knee and hugged all her curves. Oh how I loved all the curves her body has now and I could see how happy she was to get her figure back to the way it was before falling pregnant.

"Wow baby, you look good enough to eat," I purred, looking up and down her body. Her face turned red as she took our little Aria from my arms and pressed her lips to the crown of her head before looking up at me.

"I am so happy Edward. You, Arabella and Riley mean everything to me. Promise me that it will always be like this," she said nervously.

I took her face into my hands and pressed my lips to hers.

"Bella, I love you. You and our children are my life now, I promise that you will never regret taking a chance on me. I know how I was but I swear that is all in the past. All I want to do is concentrate on our future," I said sincerely.

She stepped away and placed Arabella into her pram before taking my hand in hers.

"I love you Edward. Let's go get our son," she said.

*~AA~*

We had been waiting for Dr Murphy in the waiting room forty-five minutes and I could see that Bella was getting anxious and annoyed at the nurses who kept walking past us just to eye fuck me. When the tall, fake blonde winked at me for the fourth time, Bella had finally had enough. She jumped up out of her seat and stormed over to the blonde before I could stop her.

"Excuse me bitch! Would you mind not eye fucking my boyfriend. He is not interested," she spat.

The nurse looked Bella up and down with disgust before winking at me again. I swear the skank has a death wish, aparently Bella had the same thought.

"Hey whore! Did you not hear what I just said," Bella yelled furiously but all the skank did was smirk.

"Yes I heard what you said, but I choose to ignore you. It is obvious that he is interested in me and I can't blame him. Look at me and look at you, I'm sure that you can't satisfy him sexually and he is only with you because you got knocked up. Your brat's are probably not even his," she sneered. I have never hit a woman in my life, but I was tempted to do it now. How dare she say that shit to my Bella! Sadly from the look on Bella's face she really believed her. Thankfully we were interrupted before anything else could be said.

"Heidi!"

The skanky nurse turned around, her face instantly paling when she saw Dr Murphy and my mother standing there, looking furious.

"Ye-Yes Doc-Docto-Doctor," she stuttered as Dr Murphy walked towards her.

"Do I need to remind you that you already have a written warning for harassment on file? Mr Masen and Miss Swan are well within their rights to report you, so my advice would be to apologise to them both. NOW!," he yelled.

Heidi looked like she was ready to freak out, but she turned to face us anyway.

"I'm sorry Mr Masen," she purred before looking at Bella. I couldn't believe the nerve of this bitch.

"I'm sorry Miss Swan," she sneered.

That must have been the world's worst apology, thankfully Bella agreed with me.

"I don't believe you meant a word of that and you can bet your skanky ass that we will be reporting you," Bella said smugly. I mentally gave a fist pump in the air, my girl was so hot when she put a skank in place. Heidi's face on the other hand turned red with fury.

"Fine bitch, you go ahead a report me. You are only trying to get me in trouble, to make yourself feel better. You know that when you go home with him he will be thinking of me while he's fucking you," she spat.

"Heidi, go home. You better believe that I will be sending a written report to the chief and your future at this hospital doesn't look promising," Dr Murphy said calmly. Heidi looked at the doctor and my mother, from the look on the skank's face it was obvious she had forgotten that they were still there. She threw one last look of disgust at Bella before turning on her heels and storming away.

I could see that Bella was pretty shaken up by the confrontation. The day had started wonderfully, we were finally been allowed to take home our son. Unfortunately the skank had to come and rain on our parade. I went to her side and wrapped my arm around her shoulder as she buried her head into my chest.

"I am so sorry Edward and Bella. Heidi has been warned more then once against this sort of behaviour, but she continues to make passes at the doctors and patients. I promise you that this time, she is done here at Mount Carmel Hospital," Dr Murphy explained. I nodded as tears fell from Bella's eyes onto my shirt. Dr Murphy looked between us and decided to change the subject.

"Shall we go into my office," he asked. Bella nodded, her eyes swollen red from crying. Dr Murphy walked towards his office with Bella and I followed them with Arabella.

It took twenty minutes for Dr Murphy to discharge Riley. I was sitting in his office with Bella, waiting while they went to get him. I noticed that Bella was ignoring me, focusing instead on Arabella sleeping.

"Bella baby are you alright? Please talk to me. This is supposed to be a happy time," I begged. After a long pause she finally looked up from our daughter. I saw the hurt and sorrow in her eyes and I wanted nothing more at that moment than to hunt down Heidi to knock her into next week.

"What do you want me to say? I already know that I am not good enough for you. If I had never gotten pregnant, you would have forgotten that I existed," she sniffled.

I leaned over and took her face into my hands, looking into her beautiful brown eyes.

"Bella, I remember the first time I saw you. It was when I arrived in Seattle for the BITE premiere. Emmett had showed me a picture of you and it was as if the breath had been knocked out of me. You were so beautiful; I remember how your long mahogany hair framed your beautiful heart shaped face and don't get me started on your sexy pouty mouth. I knew then that I wanted to be with you and that was before I had actually met you. Then I walked into the hall at the Fairmount Olympic hotel and saw you standing next to my parents, wearing a white cocktail dress. Your smile lit up the room and your eyes sparkled."

"I remember holding you close as we danced to the song by Aerosmith, I don't want to miss a thing. You kept stepping on my foot, so I lifted you and placed you on my feet as we continued dancing. After we danced, we took a walk and kissed for the first time. I think I fell in love with you then, but instead of telling you how I felt I turned into a prick because I was scared of my feelings. Even if you never fell pregnant, I would have still found my way back to you," I said.

Bella continued to look at me, tears falling from her eyes. She continued to sit in her chair for several seconds and watch me, before surprising the hell out of me by jumping out of her seat, throwing her arms around my neck.

"I'm sorry to be such a crying mess. I do love you, so much," she whimpered as she kissed my neck. We were so emersed in each other that we forgot where we were, until once again we were interrupted by a throat clearing. We both looked up at the same time to find Dr Murphy smirking, my mother standing next to him holding Riley in her arms. Bella jumped off my lap and went over to our son, taking him out of my mother's arms.

"My baby, my son," she whispered, I smiled as I watched them. Dr Murphy and my mother disgreetly stepped out of the office, leaving us alone to bond with our children.

Just then, Arabella decided that she didn't want to be left out of the reunion by letting out a scream. I gently lifted her up from her pram before going to Bella's side and pressing my lips to hers.

"I love you, Bella."

She looked up at me and smiled.

"I love you too Edward. It has been a long journey for us but it was worth it. I know now that I am not alone and that I never will be again," she said.
