Okay so in the last post I said my wrong age. Sorry I was talking to my cousin and she was telling me about that Disney Channel movie (I just turned eighteen not sixteen) . So, also let me know what you think. I know there's ALOT of fluff but I need fluff in my life right now. Who doesn't need fluff in their life? Anyway I might start a Mature Outtakes Portion of the story for all mature fans.(*wink*) Also I'm going to start putting more pictures up! So keep an eye out!
Also I do have to give a big thank you. I wasn't expecting many hits after not posting for a while and in my first day of posting I had over two thousand hits and have been averaging about two hundred a day since! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
Bella decided it would be a good idea to take the kids out in the middle of winter. At first I thought she was crazy, I mean its the beginning of winter. So we ended up going to the large mall a few miles away. The children got their picture with Santa. KC and Kris were glowing and telling Santa all they wanted to see under the tree on Christmas day. TJ cried and cried. He did not like the large, jolly, red man. The picture turned out to be quite hilarious. KC smiled his goofy smile, TJ was in the middle of his fit and Kris looked perplexed. All in all it was a great memory I will keep forever.
Bella shopped for some early presents with the baby and I was distracting the twins. Who knew they put play areas in malls now a days? I'm starting to feel a bit old. A few of the other dads came up to me and asked for autographs while others quizzed me about the on-goings of the season. Sometimes I zoned out and their words just went through one ear and out the other as I watched my kids. I couldn't help but sometimes question how I deserved them and their love. To believe I missed out on the beginning of their lives kills me inside every time I look at them. Kellen, Kristen, Taylor and Bella have become my life. Everything I do, I do it for them. They are my only reason for staying alive.
"Hey monkey-man!" Bella whispered in my ear while disrupting my thoughts. She kissed my cheek and I nuzzled my face against hers.
"Hello mama!" She giggled and then pulled the stroller next to me while she sat on my lap. I looked into the stroller to find my baby boy fast asleep. He looked so peaceful. Then I looked under and found what seemed to be twenty or so bags stuffed into the bottom, not counting the ones on Bella's wrist.
"Hey we've got to make our first Christmas with TJ special!" She giggled I just kissed her and we were on our way home.
The house was warm and dark. All the children were fast asleep in their own rooms. A soft whispering wind was the only noise besides our breathing. Bella kept her face nuzzled into my chest and my chin rested upon her smooth mahogany hair. Her scent soothed me. As cozy as we were in bed and as quiet as the house was, we couldn't sleep. The I looked intently at the wall and all I could do is thank God for the woman in my arms, for the children she bore me and for my health above all things. Then I tried to imagine how life was with out her. All I could remember were days filled with pain, struggle and no emotion. The nights were the same but the dark seemed to intensify everything.
"Em, what are you thinking about?" Bella whispered.
"Life before I came back here with you."
"What about life now?"
"I dont know any life but this."
"Same here." She said as she kissed my chest.
"Isabella..." Her kisses burned my chest and left a mark that would forever remain in my heart. She just hummed in response. "Marry me."
"Of course, we are engaged already."
"No, Marry me...for Christmas." Bella's lips left my body and she scooted up to look me in my eyes. I just squeezed her tighter so her hips were now pressed against my stomach and our legs were entwined.
"Em...I don't know what to-" She seemed at a loss for words. I just kissed her.
"Say yes and marry me." Bella bit her lower lip, like she does every time she's nervous or conflicted. Her eyes became very large and seemed to tear up. She then opened her mouth and whimpered.
"Yes"
I took my hand and moved her chin towards my face and I kissed her softly and tenderly. Her eyes were closed and she smiled into the kiss. Safe to say, the rest of the evening was magical, now all we had to do was tell everyone at breakfast tomorrow.
"Daddy, why does mommy look scared?" Kris asked me as I helped her into her snow pants and boots.
"Mommy and daddy have news to tell everyone at breakfast today."
"Oh no not another baby!" KC whined as he put his hand on his forehead in an exaggerated manner. I laughed and shook my head 'no'. "Oh phew!"
"No but it's going to be a special Christmas this year!"
"Is it gonna be filled with lots and lots of toys!" Kris asked excitedly.
"Well yes, but something else. Mommy and daddy are gonna have a wedding!"
"Am I gonna have to wear a dress? I like wearing dresses daddy!" Kris told me as I finished putting her gloves and hat on.
"Of course sweetie!" Bella said as she carried a sleeping TJ in her arms.
"Are we gonna party daddy?" I cracked up as I helped him into his snow pants, boots, jacket and such.
"Of course we're going to party!" This was definitely my boy.
We arrived at Alice and Jasper's apartment. Breakfast was in full swing. I could hear my father, Jasper and Edward in the living room talking. Bella went to go join the girls who were setting up the table. Mom was cooking. It was kind of her escape. I knew it was going to be a good morning when I smelled her caramel-cinnamon and almond French toast. We all talked for awhile. Jasper and Edward talked about their careers and family. Eddie was thinking about popping the question to Rose, but he's waiting until Christmas. I just squirmed a little in my seat. Jasper seemed to notice it and gave me a weird look out of the corner of his eye. I just shrugged my shoulders and continued adjusting my self until my dad turned towards me.
"So Emmett, how's life at home with the family?" My dad asked.
"It's amazing actually. We've been doing everything together as a family. I've developed an addiction to Spongebob Squarepants. I mean once you start, you can't stop." I laughed and the guys laughed along chuckling and commenting about how good everything seems. " But I start practice next Wednesday so it's going to be hard tearing myself away from them...and that Patrick Star, I can't get enough of him!"
"Breakfast is ready!" Rose called out.
We all gathered at our seats around the table. I looked at all the food on the table. Of course the French toast, Eggs Benedict, bacon, sausage patties and links, fresh fruit, waffles, gravy, biscuits, scrambled eggs, coffee, fresh squeezed orange juice and milk. Mom must've been here all night preparing this!
Small conversation was started. Mom and dad talked about the new hospital wing being honored in their name.
"They wanted to honor us with just our last name, but since the Swan family is part of our family, always has been and always will be, we asked that the wing be honored with both last names."
"Thank you so much Carlisle and Esme, you have no idea how much this means to us and our parents, may they rest in peace." Jasper spoke up for the rest of the Swan family.
"And Edward, it seems such a coincidence that the wing is looking for a new chief of staff and Esme and I may have put in a good word for you." My father said calmly as he cut up his food. He's always been such a humble man. A crashing noise of knives and forks hitting a plate was made and next thing you knew Edward was up going around the table to hug Esme and Carlisle. Silence covered the room again. Bella cleared her throat in a nice manner and a few people looked up. She reached under the table and grabbed my hand, I knew this would be hard for her.
"Emmett and I are getting married."
"Well we already knew that silly Bella!" Alice said
"No, I mean we're getting married at Christmas," Everyone's jaw dropped. "And we want it to be intimate, just us as we are here today."
"In PARIS!" Alice yelled
