Okay, I hope this chapter isn't a disappointment to you guys. I really didn't mean to leave it at a cliffhanger because the news isn't HUGE and I'm sure some of you saw it coming but I only had a cliffy because I had to end the chapter. Sorry, but I hope you still like this!!!!
"We should probably head back now, Rosie, it's getting cold." Emmett informed me as he tightened his hand around mine. We had decided to just take a walk into the woods to my favorite spot near the river. It was early December and yes, it was getting cold outside, heck, it was starting to snow but we were vampires for god's sake. We were probably colder than snow anyway.
"Emmett Cullen, do not tell me you seriously just said that," I said sarcastically to him as we stood up to walk back to the house and I absentmindedly moved closer to him so that I was practically latched onto his arm.
"Why? Aren't you cold? I am." He retorted and I scoffed at him.
"How on earth can you be cold? Your body temperature is practically below zero," I said to him exasperatedly.
"Well, I'm not really cold, but I feel like I should be so I am." He shrugged and started on the way home and I just shook my head as a smile formed on my face.
"You're so…..so…..so Emmett." I said and he chuckled but I honestly couldn't find the words to describe my husband. It's like…the English language just couldn't cover the half of it.
"Is that good or bad?" He asked me and I pretended to think about it for a moment.
"Ehh, I guess that's good depending on how you look at it." I said in all seriousness as I fought to keep the smile off of my face.
"Okay," He said simply as he continued to laugh and I soon joined in as we weaved our way through the intricate design of trees until the house came into view.
I could hear the piano's notes softly flowing throughout the air and I smiled. I remembered that Edward and Bella were there so of course he would be playing. They had let Alice and Jasper take Renesmee out for a day so they could take a break now.
"We're….Home!" Emmett announced because it's not like it was the most obvious thing in the world or anything. Nope, certainly not.
I didn't say anything though, just let him lead through the front door as we entered the living room and I took in the scene before me. Lacey's dark hair caught my eye first as I noticed her slender figure longing on the couch as she bent over something, a sketch pad I assumed. She seemed to have a passion for art and she was very skilled in that department I might add.
Next, my eyes moved over to the piano where Bella and Edward were both on the bench and he seemed to be teaching her how to play. I smiled at the thought of clumsy Bella playing the piano. Yes, she was still a bit clumsy even after she was changed. I guess some things just don't change do they.
But that's when Edwards head snapped up as he turned to connect his piercing gaze with my own before looking down at my stomach in amazement.
"What?" I asked defensively as Emmett moved over to Bella, teasing her probably.
He didn't answer as he focused on my relatively larger stomach and I immediately became a bit self conscious.
Finally, he looked up at me and smiled before laughing hysterically.
"What?" I repeated a bit impatient this time.
"She loves the sound of your voice, you know." He breathed out but he didn't stop laughing and he reminded me of when Emmett when we found out I was pregnant.
"What do you mean…..oh! You can read her thoughts Edward?" I asked him and he nodded as he continued laughing before becoming silent as he concentrated again.
"What's going on?" Emmett asked but we both ignored him as Bella filled him in.
"Oh….that's…good I guess." He said awkwardly but I was paying attention to Edward as Emmett came back to my side again.
"Oh! Rosalie….." Edward looked up at Emmett and I with a smile on his face. Just spit it out already, sheesh!
"What is it Edward?"Emmett asked him impatiently.
"Well, I can hear your babies thoughts, but……There's another voice in there. There are two." Edward informed us carefully and I heard Bella gasp.
I was trying to process what Edward just told me but I couldn't believe it. I not only got one baby, but two! That's what the dreams were about, or at least that explains the little boy there. I was having twins.
"Twins?" Lacey suddenly piped up.
Edward nodded slowly and I ran up and hugged him. I got to have my perfect little girl and my little boy! Could this get any better?
After I hugged Edward I wrapped my arms around Emmett's large frame but noticed he hadn't said anything.
"Aren't you happy about this?" I asked him and I looked up into his amber eyes.
"Of course, it's just hard to believe Rose." He said and I could indeed hear the happiness clouding his deep voice.
I smiled and buried my face in the crook of his neck. He wrapped his arms around me then I couldn't resist. I inhaled deeply, relishing his sweet scent and I had to do it. I quickly darted my tongue out to lick his neck lightly and it turned out he tasted good too. But he must have felt it because he shivered and then laughed.
"That tickled Rosie," He said quietly and then I heard Edward's quiet chuckles and Bella's light giggles. I didn't hear Lacey though but I didn't dwell on it as I joined in on the laughter. She must have left the room because I could no longer sense her presence.
"Oh, Emmett, they both like the sound of your laugh very much," Edward said as he laughed again. Good, I thought. That was one thing we had in common; we all three relished the velvety sound of his laugh.
But that's when I felt a light kick and I smiled. But then as always the harder one came and I let out a gust of air as I wrapped ,my arms around my stomach.
"What-"Emmett started but Edward cut in.
"He says that he really hates hurting you Rose and that he's sorry. There's just not enough room for them both." Edward said solemnly and the air shifted to a tenser one as I recovered from the force of the kick. So that was him all along, my lovely little boy. And my little girl must have the gentle feathery one. I smiled to myself as I felt the arms around me tighten.
"It's okay," I said, quietly forgiving my babies.
I felt two kicks again and it must have been my little girl because they were soft and light. But this time everyone came to feel my stomach and for some reason this made me even happier. I had a complete family now. My parents, my siblings, the love of my existence, and now two beautiful angels of ours. It was perfect.
Except for two things.
One, Lacey came back into the room and was glaring daggers through me and I had absolutely no idea why.
And two, I had to stop calling my babies by 'he' or 'she'. We needed to come up with names by now.
Reveiw and share your thoughts with me!!! It really inspires me to keep writing and update as fast as I can!!!!
PS: Should I name the boy Wesley or Elliott? please tell me, and I already have a name for baby girl so yeah.
