Chapter 14 – Entering the twilight zone.
EPOV
We took Bella home 2 days after she woke up from her Coma, and I was starting to worry about her, she was not sleeping at all and if she did sleep she screamed, cried and tossed and turned. This was keeping Luna awake as well. So much so that Jacob was taking Luna at night.
Carlisle had given her sleeping pills, but it was not helping her at all and it was starting to scare us all. Charlie was getting to the point where he thought that it would be a good idea to get her some help but whenever it is brought up she would go silent.
The only time she seemed to be at peace was when she was with Luna and me. But all the time I have been worried that she might do something to hurt herself, but Alice had been telling me not to worry and that I will figure out a way to make her happy again, stupid pixie always talking in bloody riddles. How the hell does Jasper put up with her?
I had left Bella at home with my mother as the rest of us went off to hunt, but I did not want to leave her, But Esme pushed me out door, Bella was behind her egging her on.
As we drew closer to our hunting ground Emmett noticed that I had fallen behind the rest of the family.
"Hey Eddie, what is up?" my bear like brother asked. We came to a stop and found a log to sit on.
"I just don't feel right leaving Bella." I said looking at him.
He looked at me with a deep thinking look on his face. "Well there is not much you can do about that, unless you change her. Then you won't have to leave her." I looked at him.
"Wow, what have you done with Emmett?" I asked him trying to lighten the mood.
"Well if you think about it brother, you are worrying about her why don't you talk to her about being one of us."
"Emmett, I think you might be on to something wow you really do have a brain in that head of yours." I said slapping him on the back.
"Well I do have my moment's brother." He laughed as he ran after the rest of the family. I stayed behind and thought about what Emmett had said, turn Bella. But could I really do that to her, take her away from her family and her little girl?
"Edward that is a fantastic idea." Alice shouted from her place in the forest. Then I saw it Alice's vision; me down on one knee asking Bella to marry me. I saw the calendar on the wall I would ask her the night after we got back.
"Alice does she say yes?" I asked her, I could see that she was seeing a couple of possibilities but they all ended with her saying yes. If I was not mature I would have punched the air and done a little happy dance.
"Now you two stop with the silent conversation and let us all in on it." My father said diplomatically. I ran to join the rest of my family so that we were not shouting at each other. I found my family standing in a clearing. Alice was vibrating on the spot from the excitement; it was funny to see jasper doing the same thing jumping on the spot like a small girl.
"Well are you going to tell us this fantastic idea of yours Edward?" Rose asked looking unimpressed with us all.
"I am going to ask Bella to marry me." I said with a huge grin on my face. Alice jumped so bloody high that I thought she was going to shot off into space.
"Jasper do you want to tie a rope round her wrist?" Emmett chimed in looking at Jasper like a geek.
We all burst out laughing as Jasper tried to calm down his little pixie. Carlisle came over and clasps my shoulder. "That is a very good idea; I think that it will be good for her as well son will give you both something else to think of." He thought to me. I smiled at him then looked over to the rest of my family who were all still laughing as Alice and Jasper.
"I think it would be a good idea if we all went and ate." I said to the others. So we all ran off to find our dinner.
After a couple of days of hunting we regrouped to head back to the house. And I was excited to get home to my Angel. I bet the rest of my family to the home. Bursting through the kitchen to find my mother and Bella sat around eating lunch. I ran over to her and lifted her into my arms.
"Wow I missed you to." She said as she wrapped her arms round my neck.
"You don't know how much I missed you over the last couple of days. How have you been?" I asked her placing her gently back in the chair. I leant down and kissed her, before the others came crashing through the kitchen door.
"I have been ok me and Esme have had a fun girly weekend." She said taking another bite of her lunch. Alice came rushing in and crashing into and pulling her into a bone crushing hug.
"Alice can't … breathe … and would … like to keep my bones in one piece." Bella said to my pixie sister.
"Oh my God Bella, Edward has been a going on and on about coming home all weekend." Alice squalled while letting go of Bella.
She looked over at me, I just shook my head at her, and the others had all joined us at this point and had taken their mates to other parts of the house leaving me and Bella alone in the kitchen. We stared at each other for a moment before she was in my arms, we made it to my room very quickly, and Bella bounced when she landed on the bed, giggling like a mad woman, as I stalked over to her like I was hunting prey. She looked at me seductively within seconds I am hovering over her and attacking her neck. I ran my hand up and down her leg.
"Edward stops." I pull away thinking that I have hurt her.
"What is wrong love did I hurt you?" I asked her concern filling my voice. She shakes her head but pulls my hand away from her legs.
"I don't want you touching my leg. The scars, I … I feel ugly I can't use my legs very well and they are covered in ugly scars." She started sobbing; I pulled her into my arms and gently rocked her. I placed a finger gently under her chin and made her look at. With my thumb I wiped away the tears that ran down her beautiful cheeks.
"Bella, you are not ugly, those scars do not make you ugly. My Bella you could have one leg, no arms and could look like frog but I would still love you." She looked up at me with disgust, and then burst into laughter, tears running down her face as she grabbed her sides. I just shook my head at my silly girl.
"Edward, Bella! Luna's home." Rose shouted from the front door. She was bouncing up and down very much like Alice.
"Would you like me to go and get her for you?" I said getting off the bed and picking up my shirt off the floor. She looked at me a little disappointed that I was leaving her on her own.
"Does this mean that my daughter is going to get more attention than your bed ridden girlfriend?" She pouted as I left my room to get my step daughter. I was greeted at the door by Rose and Leah. Luna was fast asleep against Rose's shoulder, she may have Jacobs tanned skin but she was the spitting image of Bella.
"Hello Leah, thanks you for bringing her home, I hope she was no trouble?" I asked taking her from Rose. She stirred a little bit but snuggled into my neck.
"She was an angel as always. She has stated holding her head up Friday night. And she has spent most of the weekend babbling away to her. Oh Jake wanted to know how Bella is doing and when you would like us to take her next?" Leah asked while gently placing a hand on Luna's back.
I looked at her for a second. "Tell Jacob I will give a call during the week Esme has told me that Bella is sleeping much better the last couple of nights. So I will talk to Bella." I told her.
Leah said goodbye to both of us, then left. I turned back into the house where Rose, Alice and Esme came rushing towards me and started fussing over the sleeping baby in Rosalie's arms. I waved them off but they were not having any of it.
"Ladies please I think that someone's mama would like to see this little lady." I said turning and taking Luna's tiny sleeping form from them, I walked up the stairs at human pace, so not to wake her. Once \i was outside my bedroom door I could hear Bella moving about on the bed.
"Mama, I have a little sleeping princess here to see you." I said as I entered the room. She looked at me with an uncomfortable smile on her face. I rushed over to her slipping Luna into her arms, and then I gently lifted Bella into a more comfortable position.
"My legs are starting to ache and boobs hurts and I miss our intimate times." She said looking as me sadly. I gently stocked the back of her neck to help her calm down a little. No more than 2 minutes later did Luna start to get fussy?
"She is hungry; would you like me to leave while you feed her?" I asked her getting off the bed. Bella grabbed my hand and pulled me back down on to the bed.
"Edward, why would I want to you to leave it is not like you have not seen it before." She said as she started to feed Luna. I looked at her, the last time she had feed Luna she had asked me to leave. Her mood swings were really confusing me.
"Wow have we entered the Twilight zone?" I asked her while I stroked Bella's hair.
"Hey what do you mean by that?" She pouted at me, making her look extremely sexy. I just had to kiss her. Bella kissed me back with such passion that if the baby was not sandwiched between us then I am sure that we would have cleared the house out. This made me smile against her lips.
"Now that is better shame Jake could not have kept her for a little while longer." She said with a wink. I looked at her dumbly. How in God's name did I become so lucky?
While I was just staring at her Luna had finished and Bella was gently patting her back. Even though she may have missed the first 2 months of her life, Bella had taken to mother wonderfully, she hated that her daughter spent so much time with Jacob but she knew that until she was able to sleep without screaming. I had heard several times while she was bathing, crying her heart out, over the fact that she was not mentally stable enough to raise her little girl.
"Well it can be arranged I know 3 ladies down stairs that would love to take the little princess for the evening." I said seductively, I heard her heart pick up, and her cheeks flushed a very sexy pink color.
"Rose." Bella called to my sister. Who came bursting into the bedroom and gracefully took Luna from Bella. She turned and winked at us both as she left Luna giggling while grabbing at Rosalie's hair.
"Now where were we Miss Swan?" I said pulling Bella on to her back and covering her neck in kisses.
"Well …. OH Mr. Cullen is there a janitors closet round here?" She said as she ever so slowly undid my shirt buttons. She was moving to slow for my liking so I managed to get us both down to our underwear. "You do realize every time we get this far something always goes wrong." She said as she laced her fingers through my hair.
I stopped what I was doing and looked up at her, I thought about what she said. Then rest my head against her stomach. After several moments in silence, I found myself tracing the scar that ran across her stomach. "Bella, I love you." I said before placing butterfly kisses across the scar.
"I love you too Edward, so much." She said as she carried on stroking my hair.
"What would you say if I asked you to marry me?" I said turning my head to look at her.
"I would say yes, would we be going to Vegas now or in the morning?" She said with a very straight face.
"Marry me Bella Swan." I said rubbing my hands up her sides.
"Yes, I will marry you, are we going to Vegas now or in the morning?" Again with the straight face.
"Well Alice is not happy with you at all. She wants to plan our wedding." She just shook her head.
"I want it just us city hall my dad, Esme, Carlisle and Luna no one else. She could plan the reception," She said the last bit a little louder so that Alice under stood Bella's wishes.
"Fine Bella but I get to dress you." Alice shouted back. A huge smile spread across Bella's face. "So Edward can we go tomorrow?" I looked at with a similar smile on my face but all I could do was nod my head. My Bella wanted to get married tomorrow then my angel would get what she wanted.
"I will see what I can do, but I think we might have to wait a couple of days. Is that ok with you love?" I said placing another gentle kiss on her stomach.
"We have defiantly have entered the Twilight zone." She laughed as my family burst into our bedroom.
