I am so sorry about the delay, but as you know I am on holiday! I apologise in advance for any spelling mistakes as the computer I am using doesn't have spell check. I am not sure when I can update next, so it may be a while. If any of you are reading my other stories: 'Tell me, you love me.' Or 'Unloved '. I won't be updating them today, but I will try to in the next week or so. Enjoy!
"Hello?" I snapped away from the game, flushing, and look to the door. James stood there, an amused look on his face. The way his eyes looked at me though, made me uncomfortable. He came in, shaking his head with a grin on his lips.
When he came over to me, I tried to move, but his legs were in the way. I was going to ask him to move when he did something I didn't expect.
Can we?
He grabbed my phone, looking at the wall paper. He hummed to himself, looking at the picture of my daughter and husband playing with her new teddies. His eye brows burrowed as he looked closely at Edward, then to Emily.
"Is this the family?" He asked, not looking from the picture.
"Yeah, it is. Can I have my phone back please?" I asked, holding my hand out. He nodded and with one last look, put the phone into my awaiting palm.
"She sure is a beauty." He indicated to the phone as I put it in my bag. I smiled proudly.
"I know. She looks like her dad." I sighed in content thinking about my small, but perfect, family.
"No, she's all you Bella. You're gorgeous." He told me matter of fact. I being me blushed a deep red making him chuckle.
He left shortly after, having to go and set up his classroom for the start of the day. I did to, getting every thing prepared for all my classes. I sat down just as the bell signalled the beginning of first period. I huffed as I got up again, greeting my students at the door.
The day went quickly; classes were fun making it so much faster. I was confused at the end of the day when I was called into the principles office, the same one that was my principle not long ago.
"Take a seat, Mrs Cullen." He insisted. I nodded and took the one he indicated. I sat, playing with my fingers as he shuffled through some papers. After a while, he gave up what he was looking for and pushed the pile to the side, leaning forwards with his hands clasped together on the desk.
He gaze penetrated me as I shifted uncomfortably. I looked around the room, anywhere but him. I noticed that he is a family man; lots of pictures of him with young children lined the walls. Him and his wife in the middle, her in a white gown and him in a tux. The picture looks old. Smaller picture frames with, what I assume is all of his children; surround the main picture, giving it an artistic feel.
I have been in this office many times, but I haven't really looked around like I am now. I'm not trying to be nosey, just observing the room, like I would any other. He cleared his throat and my head snapped back in his direction, a blush covering my neck and working up to my cheeks.
"I would like to have a little chat with you, if you don't mind." He started. I nodded, slightly confused.
"Of course, sir. May I ask what about?"
"I have had several parents phone me about a lesson you had, not long ago. Many of the young boys in one of your class have been talking about a lesson they shared with you." He paused. I nodded for him to go on. "They have also been sharing pictures around them selves, of you, with your top undone."
The blush on my face left as I paled. They took pictures? I could feel tears of embarrassment build in my eyes as I hung my head. Why didn't I see the phones? Surely I would have if they were taking pictures.
The tears fell as I realised what this means. I could lose my job because of this. How could I have not realised? I am so stupid! I wiped my eyes and timidly looked back up to him.
"I am so sorry. I didn't even realise my shirt was undone until James, I mean, Mr Thompson told me. I understand if I have to leave. I am so sorry." What will I do now?
"Mrs Cullen, please calm down." He begged. I nodded, trying to clam myself and stop the tears. After a while, they stopped and I felt able to talk again.
"I'm sorry; it's just this job mean so much to me. I have always wanted to teach and when I found this job, I just..." I trailed off, not knowing what to say. I shook my head and stood up, heading for the door.
"Mrs Cullen, please wait." I sighed, my hand on the door handle, before turning back to him. I didn't go any closer to him though, just waiting by the door.
"Just Bella, Sir." He nodded and gestured to the seat again. I sat silently, waiting for him to actually say the words 'You're fired'.
"I'm sorry." I mumbled again.
"There is no problem Mrs, Bella." I smiled when he corrected himself. "I just wanted to talk to you about it, and sort the whole situation out, not fire you." I looked up at him.
"Really?" I asked. He nodded and I smiled.
"Really. The only reason I asked you here was to talk this through. I know you wouldn't purposely flash a classroom of students, I just wanted to clear things up." I nodded. "So could you tell me exactly what happened?"
"I didn't even realise it was undone until Mr Thompson came into the classroom and told me it was. The class were talking and laughing but they didn't tell me what about. I am sorry." He smiled and patted my hand.
"That will be all thanks Bella. I expect to see you tomorrow, bright and early." I smiled and nodded. Grabbing my bag, I left. As I left the school I smiled. I assumed the worst of a situation, but I turned out fine in the end.
~I.N.Y~
"Our little girl is two tomorrow." Edward whispered in my ear as we lay in bed. Neither of us has worked today, so we are spending it with the family. Rose and the twins, along with Emmett, Jasper and Alice will be here, celebrating Emily's birthday weekend.
"I know. I can remember." I giggled. I could feel his crooked smile as he kissed my shoulder, holding me closer to him. We spent a while just lying together and enjoying the sun as it rose and shone through the slightly open curtains.
When I told Edward about the whole conversation with the principle, he laughed and said I was so sweet sometimes, which confused the hell out of me. I haven't really seen James either. I know he is in the school, but he doesn't speak to me much. I don't mind, but I can't help but feel I have done something wrong.
"It's my birfday yesday!" Emily exclaimed running into the room. I laughed along with Edward. She climbed onto the bed and got between us, settling down under the covers.
"No baby." I chuckled, rubbing my nose against hers. "It's your birthday tomorrow. Are you excited?" She nodded. I smiled over her shoulder to Edward, who was watching us with pride written all over his face. I smiled, making him smile his crooked grin back.
Emily soon decided we had to get up, she even pouted. Looking at her sometimes, I can see Alice in her, but then again, she is her aunt. We got up and I walked downstairs with my hand in Edwards. Emily skipped in front of us, singing away to some un-known tune.
I walked into the kitchen and smiled when I saw both Alice and Rose there with Esme. I walked behind Rose and hugged her from behind, watching as she cooed to a four week old Kelly.
"Hey Bells." Rose smiled. I smiled back, looking at Kelly as she watched me with wide eyes. I made faces at her over Rose's shoulder. Alice and Esme laughed at me, but I don't mind. They do it too. "The buys have Connor if you want him." Rose told me. I nodded before going over to Alice.
She wrapped her tiny arms around my waist and squeezed tightly. I squeezed her back before going to Esme, hugging her too. She kept her arm around my waist as I stood next to her, talking to everyone.
Rose placed Kelly into my arms and I looked down at her. I can still remember what it was like to hold Emily when she was Kelly's age. Of course, Emily was a lot smaller, due to being premature, but there really isn't much difference.
Edward strolled into the kitchen, holding Connor to his body. His eyes met mine and he smiled, coming over. I kissed his lips chastely before he stood on my other side. I kept my eyes on Kelly's small features when I felt Edward breath brush across my neck.
"I want another one, or two." He whispered. I blushed, but didn't look from the baby. He kissed my neck softly.
"I know you do. You told me the other day." I said out loud, making everyone look at me. They gave me questioning glances but I just shook my head.
"I know, just thought I should remind you." He shrugged. We swapped babies and I looked down to Conner. He still looks like a baby, but he is growing quickly. He looks more and more like Emmett every time I see him but with blonde hair instead of brown, whereas Kelly is taking on a completely different look. Her blonde hair is darkening, going to a chocolate brown. Her blue eyes are darkening, going to a hazel. She still has Rose's nose, cheek bones and lips, but those are the differences.
Emily padded into the room, followed by Jasper and Emmett. When Jasper saw me, he came over, placing a gentle kiss on my cheek. I blushed, making the whole room burst out in laughter. Emmett however, came over, kissing both cheeks before hugging me, being careful of his son in my arms.
"Good morning, Belly. How are you today?" I smiled, only Emmett.
"I'm good thanks Emmy, how are you?" Emily giggled at our banter, as she always does. Emmett barged his way between Esme and me, standing between us and slinging his arms around our shoulders. I leaned into him and I felt him kiss the top of my head.
This is what I love about my family. We are all so close; we can do this and not think anything of it. Edward knows I only love him, as I know Rose is the only one for Emmett. No jealously, no worries.
"Edward?" I asked, making him look over to me.
"Yeah?" He asked.
"Yes." I nodded, knowing he will catch on. He did and the smile on his face told me he's happy. Leaning over he captured my lips with his, giving me a kiss filled with love and devotion.
When we pulled away from each other, everyone was looking at us like we are loonies.
"Shall we tell them?" I asked Edward, looking at all the faces in the room. Edward was doing the same.
"I don't know. Do you think we should?" He asked, knowing it will annoy Emmett.
"Just tell us!" Emmett exploded, waking up baby Kelly. She began to cry and Rose slapped the back of his head before coming over and taking her from Edward. Once his arms were free, he came behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist.
"You tell them." He whispered in my ear. I nodded, looking at Esme. I want her reaction first. If she doesn't look to happy, I know this will be a bad idea.
"We're going to try for another baby." I smiled. The room fell silent as I waited for their reactions.
Good? Bad? Questions?
As I said at the top, I don't know when I will be able to update next. Hopefully in the next week or so, but no promises.
Thanks for reading, I know I am a crappy writer with the updates and everything, but I do try my hardest with my writing and I do take it very seriously.
