I dont own anything
Chapter 22
EPOV
Bella was not impressed at all about Jake being in the house, but I knew that Bella's life was too important to me. So if it meant living with 3 werewolves then we would all put up with it.
Alice had turned our bedroom into a bombsite with clothes thrown all over the place. I just shook my head as I placed Luna's sleeping form down in her crib; I started to pick up clothes that Alice had pulled out.
"Edward don't you dare all the clothes at are on the floor are to go, I can't believe I let Bella wear half the stuff it is a good thing she is pregnant she does pull of your shirts better than you sometimes." Alice said from her own room. I sigh and left the clothes were I found them Bella was not going to be at all impressed with Alice have the clothes on the floor were Bella's favorites and I knew that she would get her own way against the damn little pixie, but she was right since Bella was pregnant again she has taken up the habit of wearing my shirts not that I am complaining at all. She does look amazing in them.
I saw that Alice had thrown several of Bella's corsets on the floor. That was it Alice was dead meat if Bella was to see that. My wife did not like anyone touching her corsets (well apart from me and that was only so I could take them off) as they were specially made and a couple of they were vintage worn by Gypsy Rose Lee. She spent a hell of a lot of money on them.
"Alice you are going to die slowly. You have thrown Bella's vintage corsets on the floor." I said loud enough for my wife to hear me. I heard Bella scream from the kitchen. "SHE WHAT!"
"Ha ha Alice is in trouble." I laughed at my idiot brother.
Alice had found her way into our bedroom moments before Esme and Bella came to join us. Bella looked furiously at Alice. The saying if looks could kill went through my mind so fitting for this moment.
"Alice, how dare you. You were going to throw out my not only expensive Corsets but my vintage burlesque corsets." Bells hissed at Alice.
"I can't see what you are so worried about Bella I was going to order you new ones, handmade ones from France." Alice said in her overly sweet voice. Again Bella looked ready to kill.
"Alice that is not the point, those are all really special to me seeing as I had saved and worked stupid fucking hours with Mike Newton to be able to get these." She said a little calmer this time thanks to Jasper who had wandered into see what was going on. I went over to my wife and gently rubbed up and down her arms to get her to calm a little more.
"Everyone out, please. Let me tidy up this mess it might help me not kill Alice." She said pushing us all out of the bedroom. So we left her in peace to clean up the mess that Alice had made of our bedroom.
"Well done Alice, I think next time you ask before going through other peoples belongings, you know how Bella feels about the clothes she has." I told my sister who was looking a little upset with herself. Jasper wrapped his arm around his shoulder and led her back to their bedroom.
"Edward I think you are going to have to keep a close eye on Bella, she said that she was starting to feel a little off." My mother said. "We had all better keep an eye on her just in case that little one decides to come early." She thought to herself as she went to find Carlisle.
"I will mum don't you worry." I told her before she disappeared down stairs. I turned back to my bedroom and was about to open the door when I heard Bella talking softly inside.
"Baby you need to stop this kicking it is hurting mamma a lot and we don't want your daddy to worry if you leave bruises know do we." I heard her say. I slowly opened the door to find Bella sat on the floor her back against the bed rubbing her swollen stomach, which I must admit was making her look very unhealthy, much like she did when I found her in that run down motel all broken. I walked over to her; I gently grabbed her ankles and pulled her away from the bed so that I could position myself behind.
Once we were comfortable I lifted up the bottom of the dress that Bella was wearing and what I saw shocked me to my very core. She had several black and purple marks littering her stomach one was just starting to form.
"Angel why did you not tell me about this?" I asked her while gently tracing the marks with my fingers; this coursed the baby to stir and to gently tap under my fingers.
"They were not this bad a day or so ago, I did not need you to worry your pretty little head about a couple of tiny bruises." She said placing her hand on top of mine.
I kissed her temple then we just sat in silence just listening to the movement through the rest of the house. I broke the silence after I got bored of not hearing her voice.
"Bella have you thought of any names for our little baby? Instead of calling her baby C or baby number 2 all the time." I asked her, she looked like she was staring into space but when I followed her line of sight I saw that she was watching Luna who had managed to sleep through pretty much everything that had happened in the last 15 minutes. She must get that from her father.
"I have but I would rather hear names you like." She said quietly as she carried on looking at Luna, her fingers were idly tracing the faint scar across her belly.
"There is only one name that I can think of that would be fitting for my little girl and that is Elizabeth. It was my mother's name and I think that it is very fitting to our baby." As I said this I saw the corner of her mouth turn up into a smile. "What is going through that sharp little mind of your my dear." I said as I kissed the side of her neck.
"That is for my devious little brain to know and for your little brain cells to bow down too." She laughed, which in turn woke up Luna. She sat there staring at us her head tilted to one side mouth forming a pout.
"Are you sure that Jacob is the father?" I jokingly asked her as we watched Luna watching us.
"Well if you believe in that miraculous conception then….. No she is defiantly Jacob's kid." She said just as Luna was trying to rip the head off a stuffed rabbit. We both laughed.
"My love are you ok with the situation at the moment, Jacob, Leah and Seth all living here?" I asked her as I stood lifting my little angel out of her crib. Gently rocking her from side to side as she became fussy when she was not in the limelight.
"There is no way around it, I suppose I had better clean this up and finish packing before Alice comes back." She said as struggled to stand.
"Bella stay put, take your daughter. Then tell me what you want packing I will sort it out." I said kissing her lips, and handing her Luna I then turned and started picking up clothes at Bella instructions. It took me less than 5 minutes to get everything packed.
"How did I get so lucky?" She asked once I had finished. I had rejoined her on the floor where she was playing with an over excited baby.
"It is I who is lucky my love. Now I think you need to get some rest, you are looking ill, I think our little one is taking it out of you." I said as I saw her winch in pain. I knew that I was right and that she would not tell me either way.
"Yeh thanks Leah was telling the other day how ill I was looking." She said sharply focusing all her attention on to Luna. I kissed her neck in apology which she accepted silently by leaning back into my chest.
"Ok bed for you my lovely wife we have a very long day tomorrow. I can ask Jacob and Leah if they can watch Luna this evening as we have to go out and hunt before we spend 18 hours on a plane." I said her into my arms.
We got back from our hunting trip early the next morning to find Jacob fast asleep on the sofa with Luna asleep on his chest, Leah and Seth has both fallen asleep on the love seat with the telly on.
The girls all awwed at the sight of Jacob and Luna, but all I could feel was jealousy. I left the others to go about their morning routine and finish getting ready for the coming trip. I walked up the stairs to my bedroom. Bella was fast asleep covers pulled up around her neck, she looked so young and innocent, and she did not look like a married woman or a mother. I climbed into bed and wrapped my arms around her, which made her relax.
I watched as the clock ticked away, just after 8 Bella stirred. She turned in my arms and smiled.
"Is it morning already?" she asked while she attempted to sit up in bed. I nodded my head before giving her a quick kiss on the forehead.
"I think you need to get up and have a shower my love and make yourself look beautiful. I will go and get breakfast ready for you and I will make sure that Alice and others don't come up and bother you." I told her as I help her out of bed and into the bathroom.
She turned on the shower and I leant against the door frame watching here. She peeled off her oversized t-shirt leaving her only in a tiny pair of baby blue knickers. My mouth pooled with venom, but not for of her blood but her body.
"Edward I thought you were going to make me breakfast?" She asked while she looked in the mirror.
"I was but know I think I need a shower as well. And saving water is a good idea." I said making my way over to her and wrapping my arms around her naked form. She pouted at me in the mirror. "You really must stop making that face my love or we might have to shower twice." I laughed.
She turned and lifted the shirt up over my head and throw it in the corner what she did next really surprised me, she whipped off my belt which made my jeans fall to the ground. "How the hell did you do that?" I ask her in amazement. She just tapped the side of her nose. She stepped into the steaming shower with me close behind her.
20 minutes later we both left the shower very satisfied indeed. I left Bella to get ready while I went and made her some breakfast. I was greeted by Jacob, Jasper and Emmett who all wore very similar expressions.
"Do you really think that, that is appropriate behavior with a baby in the house?" Jacob asked before falling on the floor laughing. Luna was giggling along with the rest of them.
I looked at them all not finding it at all funny. "I would wipe those smiles off your faces before Bella comes down." I said they all looked at me horror I cooked Bella some eggs and toast and had it on the table as she came down stairs and she look amazing. Dressed in a beautiful midnight blue low cut shirt dress which fell just above her knees it was tight around her burst then flowed over her baby bump. Her hair was left loose and curled around her face. Make up floorless as ever she looked like she just stepped out of a 1940s movie. I looked at the others their jaws were on the floor and their eyes were popping out their heads much like they do in cartoons.
"Gentlemen I don't think your lovely ladies will like the looks on your faces if they walk in here." She said in her posh and seductive voice.
"Damn Bella, you are looking smoking." Emmett yelled "damn brother we got lucky in this family and she aint even a vampire yet."
"Bella I think um I got to go." Jasper said a little too fast then ran out the door. He ran so fast that I did not catch what he was thinking.
"Well Bells you have not looked this good since before you got pregnant with Luna." Jacob said while staring at my wife's legs. "Damn she is looking good but she has nothing on Leah." I smiled at the thought at least he was fantasying about here anymore.
"Well Edward have you got a remark about my outfit?" She asked going over to Luna and kissing her forehead. I just shook my head. "Oh shame I picked it with you in mind." She purred.
"I think we are going to leave you two to it." Emmett said running out of the kitchen with his hands over his eyes.
"Yeh I agree with Emmett." Jake said nervously as he followed suit. Me and Bella just looked at each other and laughed.
"Bella you look beautiful being pregnant defiantly agrees with you, but I think that it would look much better on our bedroom floor." I winked at her as she blushed.
"Edward my boy you are a dirty old perv that I ever met." My father said from behind me. Bella went a dark shade red.
I turned to face my parents as they stood in the door way trying to hold back their laughter. Bella had turned her attention to Luna while I slowly died of embarrassment. But was pulled out of it by Luna's crying we all looked at her and saw that she had cut her finger and was bleeding a little.
"Edward!" Bella said panicked. The look on her face was of thirst the same look that Jasper used to get when human blood had been spilt. "Luna honey it is ok, just a little booboo." She told her crying baby as she rubbed her tiny hand and then brought it to her lips in an act of kissing it better but instead licked the tiny droplet of blood of her finger. The look of ecstasy crossed her face. I ran to her side and gently but forcefully pulled her away from the crying infant. The rest of the family plus the three werewolves had come to see what was going on.
"Bella what are you doing?" Jacob screamed as he lifted Luna out of her high chair.
"I am…. So…so…. So rry sorry. Oh my god." She cried out and fell to the floor.
