Chapter 11 ~ Truth
Bella's POV
It has almost been a week since we moved in with the Cullens. This week was amazing but at the same time hard. It was amazing because it was so much fun. The triplets were having a great time with the family, with our family. It was hard because of Edward. I didn't want to talk to him so much but he kept trying. I did say that we are friends but still they way he talked to me… was as if he was trying to get me back. Of course he wanted me back but I needed my time.
Today after so long we – as in the triplets and I – were going hunting. It was nice to finally have a chance to be alone with our family – not that the Cullens weren't our family – it's just that they didn't know everything about us yet that we could talk about in that house or near any of them. They didn't know that the triplets were my children and I was their mother. Their real mother.
"Mom it's so nice to be out here alone." Adam.
"I know honey. I understand. I feel the same way."
"Mom you know how hard is it to call you by your name?" Kevin
"I know and I feel bad about that part as well. I really like when you call me 'mom'"
"Why can't we just tell them the truth?" Kevin
"Yeah mom why can't we?" Kim
"Why aren't you telling them about us?" Adam
I stared at them. They all had a confused faces. I didn't know how to answer them. I'll just tell them the truth.
"I don't want to tell them because I don't know how they will react. I'm afraid of the reactions."
"But mom, I think we should tell them now. We have been living with them for one week and we have known them for two weeks. You have known them longer. It won't be fair not to tell them. They have a right to know. If we are living with them then we should tell them the truth." Kevin
"I don't know. I don't think that would be right."
"No mom you tell them." Adam
"We are going to tell them today or we are not going back to them." Kim
"We don't have a right to live with them if they don't even know the truth yet." Kevin.
I thought about it for a while. I agreed with my kids. I should've told them early, before we moved in but I didn't. They had a right to know.
"Kay we will tell them today. Now let's finish the hunt and hurry back" They all nodded.
Edward's POV
I couldn't believe it that Bella and her family was living in our house. Bella's room was in front of mine. Alice planned it to be in front of mine and I think Bella knows that. I was so happy. Bella had forgiven me, she does love me, and she now lives with me in the same house.
I was also very sad. Bella loved me but she never came near me. We never hugged or kissed. We had different rooms when I really wanted her in my room with me. I wanted to get down on my knees and tell her how much I love her and ask her to marry me. I wanted to give her my mom's ring. I wanted to slide the ring in her finger. But…she didn't trust me yet. She doesn't believe me. And we are just friends. I hated this part, of not being close to her when she is just 1 feet away from. I want to hold her in my embrace but I can't. It is my fault. I should have never left her. Now I have her back but not the way I want to have her. She stays away from me as much as possible. This hurts me more. If we are friends then we can at least have a good talk but she keeps her distance from me. I promise I will have her trust back and I will have her back as well. I promise.
My thoughts were interrupted by Alice.
"Can everyone come down here? I mean everyone." Alice said lowly but I could here the shock in her voice.
This wasn't going to be good. Something was wrong. With in seconds everyone was downstairs standing in front of Alice, who still had a shocked face. I tried to read her mind.
*Edward I don't want you to read my mind right now. Please wait for me to start.* Alice.
"Everyone lets sit down." Alice.
She walked over to the living room and sat down on the love seat. Jasper sat beside her. Everyone took their seats and waited for Alice to start. Everyone was curious.
"Baby, what's wrong? Did you have a vision?" Jasper asked Alice.
"Yes I had a vision. It was about Bella and…" Alice stopped to look at me.
"Alice what happened to her?" I asked in a worried voice.
"I saw… Bella… Kim… Adam… Kevin… call… mom… truth…" Alice struggled for words.
Everyone was confused.
*What had she seen which makes her so worried? What happened with Bella and her family?* Esme.
*What the hell? I'm so confused?* Emmett.
*What happened with Bella?* Rose.
*I hope everything is okay.* Carlisle.
*Why is Alice so worried?* Jasper.
"Alice calm down. Explain slowly. What happened to Bella?" Esme.
"I saw Kim, Kevin and Adam calling Bella… 'mom'" She shuddered at that.
Everyone was frozen where they were. What? They called her 'mom'? Mom? Mom? What? Bella is their mother? After a while I decided to listen to my family.
*MOM?* Rosalie.
*Bella…Mom?* Emmett
*How is Bella their mother?* Jasper
*Bella can't be their mother.* Esme
*Bella is a mom?* Carlisle
"What … are… you… saying?" I asked.
"I saw them hunting and then…" Alice
Alice told us everything and I even saw the vision.
"They didn't tell us what?" Rosalie.
"Bella can't be their mother." Emmett.
"What's the truth?" Jasper.
Everyone kept on asking questions more to themselves. I stayed quiet. I was think hard. How can that be possible? Of course it is possible. Bella had a right to have kids but she was turned into a vampire after a month we left. How can she be pregnant? Was she a vampire that was pregnant? No, that is not possible. Maybe she is just a step mother or something. Maybe she adopted them. It was quiet for another while but Carlisle broke it.
"I guess we wait for them to come and explain because we have no clue." We all nodded our heads and went back to whatever we were doing. Everyone was waiting for them to come back.
After an hour they came back. As they entered, all of us stared at them and they instantly stopped where they were. I couldn't read their thoughts, maybe because Bella had her shield around them.
"Umm… what's wrong?" Kim asked in a worried voice.
They started to walk again but were frozen again when Alice spoke.
"I saw a vision of you guys calling Bella 'mom' when you guys went hunting." Alice
No once was moving. All of them had a shocked face but Bella's face was less shocking. She was staring no where. As is there was no one here. It looked like they all went to a shock, if that is possible. We waited for them to be back.
Then all of a sudden I saw Bella falling. I caught her before she could hit the floor. Her eyes were closed. Right then everyone unfroze and were at her side. I was worried that she would faint but she opened her eyes.
"OMG mom what happened?" Kevin asked in a worried voice.
My family stared at him as he said that. Bella started to get up and was standing now. Her face was mixed with emotions that I could not understand.
"I…umm… had a headache… or something… my shield broke… and then… I collapsed." Bella
"I think you should tell them the truth, mom." Adam
Again my family was staring at him as he said that one word. 'Mom'
"Okay… well… Alice your vision was right… I am their mom. I'm not their step-mom or I didn't adopt them. I actually gave birth to them." Bella
As she said that we stared at her. We were all shocked. I was too shocked to her my family's thoughts. I was just so lost in her words.
"What… do… you… mean?" I asked in a horrified voice.
"What do you think I mean? I mean is that I gave birth to them." She said in an annoyed voice.
"He didn't mean it that way, he meant as in how that is possible? I mean… they… are half human and half vampire…. Like how?" Rosalie backed me up.
"You guys can't seriously be that stupid enough to figure it out. Half human, this means that I was their human mother. Half vampire, this means that their father was a vampire… " Bella didn't finish.
She was with another vampire. She had another vampire's kids. Those were some vampire and Bella's kids. I felt jealousy running wildly down my spine. How could she? Didn't she love me at all? Didn't she know how dangerous that was? What was she thinking?
"What were you thinking? You… gave… birth… to… vampire's… kids? I left you to protect you and then this? What were you thinking? And who…?" I shuddered at the thought.
"Edward what are you saying? How could you even think that I would go in bed with some other person or vampire? Do you not know me at all? Do you seriously think I'll do that?" She almost yelled at me. She was angry at something I didn't know.
"What do you mean? I don't understand? I'm confused." I said or slightly yelled.
Bella started at me in the eye for a few moments and then sighed and fell to her knees. She had her head in her hands.
"Edward, they are your children. Their full names are Kimberly Anthony Mason Cullen, Kevin Anthony Mason Cullen, and Adam Anthony Mason Cullen." She said each word loud and clear.
I heard seven gasps around the room and one of them came from my mouth. What was she saying? They were my, our children? What? Is that possible? Yeah it is. Before we left, Bella and I shared our physical love. I broke all the boundaries and gave in. And that day was amazing. I still remember it. But vampires can't have children.
After a long moment of silence Bella looked up to stare at us. She got up to her feet and just kept staring but now she was only staring at me. I didn't know what to do.
I was happy. We shared our love. We made each other happy and now we have those three amazing kids. She gave birth to them. She loved me enough to give birth to three babies of mine. I had always wanted to have my own children but since I was turned into a vampire I knew that was impossible but Bella, my angel, gave birth to them. She had always made me happy but now she had no clue how extremely happy I was. I had my own children and I had Bella. No not quite. I had to have her back but how?
Out of no where Kevin spoke. "We can leave if you like us to leave." Then everyone in my family almost yelled at him. "No ways, you guys are staying here."
My family wanted to have them to stay. They accepted them. They accepted my, our children. They were our children but they still belonged to Bella since she still didn't trust me. I still had no right on them.
"Umm… Bella please stay with us. We will all want you to stay with us. We all want you to stay with our family. Please?" Carlisle almost begged and everyone in my family nodded.
"Please Bella?" Esme.
"Bella give us a chance to be with our family?" Rose.
"Bella I know we have never been close but I would love to know you and them better. Please?" Jasper
"Please?" Emmett
"Please Bella stay." Alice sobbed.
Everyone in the family spoke their feelings except me. I knew that it will make a difference if I said something but I couldn't find my voice. After a while Bella spoke again.
"Fine. We will stay." Bella.
"Thankyou so much." Emmett.
"Thank you for accepting us back in your life Bella and as well as their lives." Esme.
Everyone gave hugs to each other. Everyone was happy.
"So mom can we call them by the relationship?" Adam asked.
"Of course you can." Bella answered.
"Thank you Bella" Esme said again.
Everyone was talking to each other. Everyone was interested in knowing more about the triplets. I was still standing here in shock that they were my kids. I didn't know how long I was standing here but eventually Bella pulled me out of my frozen zone.
"Are you okay?" Bella.
"Bella, do… I… have… a… right… on… them…?" I asked in a shuddered tone.
Bella didn't answer for a long time. It was so quiet. I noticed that everyone was staring at us. Wait for Bella to speak. She finally spoke.
"Yes you have a right on them but… you don't… have a… right on… me… I still don't trust you." Bella said that while looking at the floor.
"Thank you I really appreciated. And I promise I will get you trust back."
Everything went to normal or at least somewhat normal. Without Bella nothing was normal but still I had my – our three beautiful children.
