Chap 12- Getting to know Izzy

EPOV (Around 5:30pm)

After returning to the hotel room I quickly canceled the plans I had had for the evening. Surprisingly no one was upset that I canceled; they all left about an hour ago to the theater to see High School Musical: The Musical. The show would be starting about now but they left early to get the tickets and everything.

I was left in the 'hotel room' by myself.

I was thinking about hat had happened this morning with Zane.

"A family is a lot like a puzzle. It can be any size and have many pieces but if you take a piece away, " he said removing a piece of the completed puzzle, "or lose a piece then the puzzle is never really completed. You really can't have a 'completed puzzle' without all the pieces, just like you can never really have a 'family', without your whole family."

How could that child be so open? But then again he would be about 70 years old, I guess.

I mentally added that to my list of questions for Izzy tonight.

I walked out of the Hotel and into the hotel's garage where one of the cars we had rented, black Volvo s30, was parked. Alice rolled her eyes at me when I told her I wanted a Volvo as a rental car for the trip. I still own a Volvo back home just a different style, a silver Volvo s40. (PICS ON PROFILE)

I got into the car, but didn't start it. I felt a feeling that I had not felt in 70 years.

Nervous.

Izzy said she was leaving tomorrow, so I only had tonight to get her to see that I still loved her and that I wanted us back together again. This time for eternity. For us to be a real family.

IzzyPOV

I don't know why I agreed to do this. Why I would agree to let Edward Cullen, the man who through me a side like a play toy and then lied to my face, back into my life even for one night.

I looked into the floor length mirror that was in my hotel room and sighed. I left my deep brown hair that reached to the middle of my back hanging in light waves. The left side was tucked behind my ear while the right side hung around my face.

For my clothing I chose an off the shoulder black to with pink flowers, a pair or light washed blue jeans, and my Sketchers. I also wore a necklace that only came off when I had to shoot photos.

It was a sterling silver chain with four hearts hanging from it. On each heart were my 'childrens'names; Zane, Gabriel, Lucian, and Darius. I wore it all the time.

Over the last 70 years they had become such a huge part in my life. Zane especially.

I walked from my room and went to check on the boys. Zane was working on a puzzle, though I couldn't see what it was, Darius was reading, and Lucian and Gabriel were who could beat who at Need For Speed on the PS 360.

I looked back over to Zane who was sitting on the floor. He was just like Edward in so many ways; calm, loving, protective, cute, and very talented. I didn't realize I was staring at him until he spoke. (I HAVE A PIC OF WHAT ZANE KIND OF LOOKS LIKE ON MY PROFILE)

"You ok mommy?"

"What? Oh, yeah, I'm fine. Remember I'm going out with a friend for a while so listen to your brothers ok?"

"Ok mommy."

I smiled and turned to walk away.

"Hey mommy? Do you remember that man I was talking to today?" I nodded and he continued. "He was very nice. I like him. We talked about family and for some reason he seemed a little sad. Maybe one day he can come with us. We may not be a 'family' family but we're still ok. Our family may be broken but it's still good." (Yes I quoted Lilo and Stitch, I know)

If I could cry I would have. He really was like Edward; an angel.

I was about to say something back when I heard a knock at the door. Being that the door was on the other side of the room and I knew who it was, I told the boys to behave.

I opened the door to see Edward standing there. He looked amazing. But then again when didn't he?

He was wearing a black T-shirt under a black jacket and a pair of light tan kaki pants.

"Hey" he smiled "Are you ready to go?"

I nodded and walked out of the room and down to his car.

I let out a small laugh when I saw the car. A Volvo, of course.

He looked over at me as he opened the passengers side door smiling, "What? Just because I'm on vacation doesn't mean I can't have a car I like."

I got into the car and within seconds he was in the drivers seat next to me.

It felt awkward being in the car with him again. It brought back memories of my human years.

During the drive we talked about what we've been up to over the last 70 years. He told me how he had met Kat and I told him how I was pulled into the Modeling business when Kairi decided she wanted to model but didn't want to do it alone."

The drive was about 20 minutes long, Edward surprisingly taking his time.

The car came to a stop in a parking lot in front of a park, a water fountain in the center.

Edward being Edward was at my door in a flash, opening it and reaching out his hand.

I had really missed this.

I took his hand and stood up out of the car and walked over to a set of swings and sat down. Edward did the same.

So what do you want to know?" I asked.

"I want to know about Zane, about how you became a vampire, and about Caleb."

I didn't miss the growl when he said Caleb's name.

"First off Caleb is just a friend. And to make long stories short, soon after you left I found out I was pregnant. After I had Zane I slipped in the shower and fell through the glass shower door, which cut my throat, and Siete, who had come to check on me after a fall I had had about a day earlier, changed me."

I looked over at him. He looked shocked. The spoke, "When you found out you were pregnant what happened? What did Charlie say?"

"Well Charlie wasn't to happy but he got over it. I had known Caleb sense I was little and when he showed up at Charlie's one day as a vampire I was shocked, but happy to see him. When he found out I was pregnant he was the one who took me to see Siete. I mean it would be pretty weird to go to a normal doctor, get a sonogram, then have to make up some story as to why the baby is growing and there's no heartbeat.

Even Siete said that a human carrying a vampire baby was risky, and because vampires don't usually get that close to humans, there was no telling what could happen. It was a struggle and a pain at times but I did it. When Zane was born I was so excited. Even though being in labor for almost 24 hours was tiring and them the pain of actually having him was bad I did it."

"But if you knew that carrying the baby was risky why did you do it? Why risk you life?" he said looking at me with a type of anger in his eyes. " I told you to stay safe."

I looked down to the ground closing my eyes not wanting to see the expression on his face for what I was about to tell him.

"You also told me to be happy Edward. When I found out I was pregnant sure I was scared but I was also happy. That baby was all that I had left of you, and I didn't want to let that go. I wanted to have some part of you with me no matter what the risk."

It was silent for a moment. Then I heard shifting. I opened my eyes when I felt something touch my face. His hands.

He was kneeling in front of me his hands holding my face.

I closed my eyes again. I knew he was going to be upset with me for that.

"Izzy, look at me please." He whispered.

Slowly I opened my eyes and looked into his liquid topaz ones. They were filled with sadness and reassuring.

"I did tell you to be happy, and I meant it. Though I'm mad at you for possibly risking your life, I'm glad that you were happy. I didn't realize that my leaving had taken that much of an impact on you. Had I known at all what was going on I would have stayed or come back. For that I'm sorry."

"What are you sorry for? I'm that one that didn't tell you anything. I should have tried to track you down…I should have just aborted that baby…I" I was panicking and ranting when Edward stopped me.

"No, no, no Bella." He said pulling me from the swing and down onto his lap. You could not have gotten rid of the baby. You did what you felt was right. You held on to something you wanted. There is nothing for you to be sorry for. Relax." He said trying to relax me by running his hands through my hair.

"But he was…is..your son to. I should have told you."

"Bella. I left you no way to get in contact with me. You couldn't have told me."

I let the name thing slip again; I was too upset to really say anything.

"But…"

"No buts." He said slightly pushing me away, "Look you're getting yourself upset over something you hand no control over, now relax."

He picked me up and walked over and sat down on the wall of a fountain. I just sat there. In his lap, listening to the water flow, while he ran his hands through my hair and down my back.

After a few minutes I calmed down enough to tell him why Zane was a vampire and how I ended up with Darius, Gabriel, and Lucian. Then after that we just sat together. Neither of us said a word.

When I looked down at my watch I noticed it was 12:30am. I had to get home. It was the first time in a long time I wasn't in too much of a hurry to get home.

"You ready to go?" Edward asked.

"Yeah I have to get back. The boys are probably wondering where I am and we have to catch the plane at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon."

I said as we walked back to the car. The ride home was silent.

Edward parked the car out front of my hotel the helped me out. No one was out.

"Thanks for coming out with me tonight." He smiled.

"It was fun, well, except for the whole breaking down thing." I laughed. So did he.

"So I guess this is goodbye huh?" he said looking at the ground.

"For now anyway. Or have you forgotten our fathers work together?" I smiled.

He looked back up and smiled "That's right."

I pulled a paper out of my pocket and handed it to him. It was my address back home.

He took it and looked it over before putting it in his jacket pocket.

I don't know when you get back but my Cell phone number is on there to. Just call before.."

I was cut off as his lips met mine. The kiss was soft but meaningful.

Part of me screamed to pull away, not to let him hurt me again; but the other felt so right. Like this was right.

I closed my eyes as he deepened the kiss.

If only this moment could last for eternity. I thought to myself.

But after what seemed like only seconds he reluctantly pulled away slowly.

"I'm sorry I didn't…" he started.

I shook my head and said, "That's on thing you will never have to apologize for." I leaned up and kissed his cheek before walking away. "Goodnight Edward." I whispered knowing he's he me.

I heard him whisper back, "Goodnight angel."

I smiled and thought, Maybe Zane will get his wish.

So...Good..Bad?? let me know please!! only a couple chapters left!!
