Hey you guys'll realize I got annoyed with baby talk. I would love for you to review because this is the first time I've written a story as I typed it. Sorry for the long wait [I still can't find my notebook =(]. Hope you enjoy
I don't own anything, although I wish I did, except my own ideas
Esme POV:
I went to the hospital to get it checked out, which took forever, and was right. I am pregnant. When I got back home all the boys were wrestling. Carlisle was losing badly. "Come on Dad, I thought you were tough!" Jasper challenged. Carlisle stood quickly, taking the boys with him and dropped them on the couch. "What now?" he taunted. "No far." Jasper sulked. "You're too big, daddy." Emmett laughed before he realized what he had said. He stopped and hung his head, "sorry." He whispered. I decided it was time to make my presence known.
"Carlisle?" I asked and he looked up shocked, having not heard me come in, "Can I talk to you in the kitchen real quick?" "Yes, of course. Boys, could you please put the cushions back on the sofa?" He answered as he headed to the kitchen after me.
"A baby?" he asked simply. "Are you mad?" I looked at my feet, unable to make eye contact. "Mad?" he sounded so shocked I looked up. "baby, no. No, no, no." his hands were on my face, which is when I realized I was crying. "I am so happy. You don't even understand how happy I am. Shh, baby don't cry." He practically begged. "I thought you would hate me," I explained "but I'm so happy you're happy." I laughed, wiping my tears. "I could never hate you. Esme, I love you." He declared to my surprise. "You love… me?" He nodded with a smile. "Actually, I've been carrying this around with me for the last month." He held out a little velvet box. "but I wanted to tell you about me first." I took the box from him. It was a little gold ring with a large diamond in the center and three small ones on each side. "Carlisle?" he looked up, embarrassed. "I'll wear it, but as a necklace. A promise ring," I declared. "Really" he asked happily. "Yes," I said. "We need to tell the boys about the baby." "Emmett called me 'Daddy'." Carlisle stated. "I heard. He didn't mean to; he apologized. Please don't be angry with him." "Esme, I'm not the least bit mad, about anything. Actually, I was surprised that he thought so highly of me. I'm glad he called me 'Daddy' because I think of him as a son. I love him just as I love Jasper." He just continued to surprise me. "Now, let's go tell them." He smiled and led the way to their room.
"Emmett, Jasper, me and Carlisle have something to tell you." "it's 'Carlisle and I', mom" Emmett corrected causing me to smile. "It is, isn't it?" I laughed lightly as Carlisle and I went over to the bed to sit down. "Come here boys." Carlisle motioned towards us. I picked up Jasper and placed him on my lap as Carlisle did the same with Emmett. "I swear it wasn't me" Jasper declared. "What?" I asked. "I don't know, but Jimmy Robertson says that's what you say when you're parents say 'we should talk.'" He explained. "Well, son, you shouldn't say that because it makes it seem like you did something bad." Carlisle told him. "But I didn't!" Jasper protested. "Anyway, we have some good news!" I started. "What?" Emmett asked. "Well mommy and I are going to have a baby." Carlisle told them. "We get a brother?" Jasper asked loudly. "No, duffus a sister." Emmett contradicted. "Emmett." I scolded. "We don't know if it's a boy or a girl," I clarified. "Five bucks says girl," Emmett challenged. "Deal," Jasper agreed with a yawn.
"Jasper and I have some good news too!" Emmett said enthusiastically. "What?" Carlisle and I asked just as enthused. "We're twins!" Jasper stated matter of factly. I looked at them puzzled. "We both have the same birthday, right? December 23!" Jasper told us. I looked at Carlisle and he nodded. That was just a week away and I hadn't even realized it. "Well, isn't that good new?" I smiled. "Bed Time!" Carlisle clapped his hands together and stood with Emmett. We laid the boys in their beds, kissed their heads and left.
"You forgot too, didn't you?" I asked as we headed to the living room. "Not really. I just didn't realize it was so soon." "Yeah, me too. How about we just do a chuck E. Cheese party with the kids from their preschool?" I asked. "That would be great, then they really would act like twins." Carlisle agreed. "Let them believe it if they want to." I told him "We'll be a family sooner or later." I promised as I kissed the side of his mouth and headed off to bed.
It was the day the kids got off from school and they were handing out their invitations. "Jasper, Emmett, my mom wants to know what you want for your birthday presents?" Carlisle and I overheard. Our boys look at each other before they both said "nothing." The little boy looked baffled "What?" he asked them. "All we want is for our friends to come and have fun with us at our party." Emmett told him. "Emmett and I don't really like presents. Besides it's close to Christmas so your mama has to do shopping for that." Jasper smiled. It nearly brought me to tears at how benevolent they were.
"Twins, huh? It's so cute how one looks like each of you," a woman said in an accusing voice. "Isn't it?" Carlisle agreed as he pulled me close to him and held me a little too tightly. "You never mentioned a wife or another son Carlisle." She brushed me hand down his arm that wasn't around me. "I thought you weren't coming back around here, Camille." Carlisle seemed annoyed. "Well little Mikey really wanted to stay at this school." She explained and almost touched his face. I grabbed his cheek and jerked his head away from her touch. I saw him wince at how rough I had been. "Hi. I'm Esme." I held my hand out and she just looked at it before staring up at Carlisle. I ran my hand through his hair. The woman scoffed "I thought you didn't let anyone touch your hair." "Yeah, no one, but her." he turned his head and ran his nose from my ear to my neck. "Like I said, I'm Esme. I'm special." So I got a little cocky? She scoffed again "he'll drop you soon enough." "Don't hold your breath. Besides he'd never come to you." I challenged with a smile before turning and kissing my Carlisle. "Yeah, well… Your eyes are weird!" she yelled to Carlisle before storming away, dragging he son behind her. "I hate that woman." He shivered and loosened his grip on me. "Who is she?" "She's Michael Newton's mom. I don't remember her name, but she was supposed to move and not come back," he sighed.
"Emmett, Jasper, time to go!" Carlisle yelled. "Papa, we have to go to the jewelry store!" Jasper exclaimed. "Why?" I questioned. "Cuz I wanna get Alice a necklace like yours, so she'll know that she's special to me," He explained. "Who's Alice?" Carlisle asked. "Just the smartest, nicest, prettiest girl in the whole wide world!" he exclaimed "per favore, fretta. We have to get there before they close. I gotta get the perfect one!" "Ok, buddy." Carlisle smiled and we headed the opisite way of home. "Carlisle are you really going to let him buy an expensive ring for a two year old?" I asked, baffled. "Yes. When i was younger my uncle and cousins gave me anything I wanted as long as I was good and obeyed them. I'll do the same for Jasper and Emmett and the new baby." "Well then... How many cousins do you have?" i asked. "Three, Ciaus is 15 years older than me, Marcus is 10 years older, and Aro is just about my age. The run the Italian branch of the mob together." He informed.
Carlisle ended up buying Jasper a $15,000 ring for Alice; he gave it to her at the birthday party. We decided to have it at Chuck E. Cheese the weekend before Christmas. Alice really was very pretty. She had black hair that fell down to her knees and bright green eyes. She was very small, even for a two year old. She spoke even more clearly than our boys and seemed to understand everything. She was poliet, but very hyper.
"Esme, sweetheart, how would you feel about going to Italy for Christmas?" Carlisle asked as the kids played. "This Christmas?" i asked. "Yeah. We can go see my cousins. I know it would make them very happy." He pursuaded. "Alright." I agreed, having nothing better to do, "But we have to go see my mother before we leave." "Ok, sweetheart." He smiled and the party finished smoothly, besides Emmett and Jasper bumbing into eachother and both getting bloody noses.
