I would appreciate it if you would read my other stories as well. In recent days, I have published two more so I hope you enjoy them.
Anyways, on with the story…
EPOV
"Bella!" I hollered for my girl's presence as soon as I barged through the front entrance.
"Hi, Edward." Jacob greeted me with a smirk on his face.
"Jake...I thought you weren't arriving until tomorrow. Not that I'm not happy to see you!" I quickly added.
"Change of plans." He shrugged.
"Oh." I replied lamely. It wasn't that I was displeased to see Jake; I had only hoped all of these messy predicaments I was currently tangled up in would be resolved by the time he came to stay.
"And Bella's at the market. Something about spoilt milk."
"Oh erm...okay. Did she give any indication as to how long this little trip would keep her?"
"Nope." Jake responded, relaxed. He skipped- freaking skipped- to watch television in the living room. I knew he enjoyed the T.V. that took up more than half of the wall. Secretly, I thought that was why he pestered Bella to let him visit so often.
"Well, well, if isn't Mr. Movie Star Who Likes to Kiss His Co-Stars Inappropriately." Bella's voice resounded from behind me suddenly.
"Shit, you heard?" Bella nodded. "Fuck, rumors fly like wild flower in this town."
"Mhm. My miniature grocery trip was delayed from all the phony apologizes I was receiving."
"Babe, I am so sorry. You have to know it's not true. I mean yes, we kissed. But she forced herself on me!" I stepped closer to her, testing the waters. I really had no desire to get sucker punched.
However, Bella's reaction was not on my hefty list of expectations. Instead, she burst out laughing. Yep, heaps of giggles so powerful she had to clutch her seldom sides for support.
"Sweetie, of course I know that!" She granted a quick kiss to my confused face. "I've been with you long enough to know things are never as they seem. I'm not an idiot; I know how manipulative the media is."
"So you're not angry? At all?" I inquired, completely stunned at the lack of monotone in her reaction.
"Why should I be? I trust you." This girl is incredible.
"You're not even a LITTLE bit jealous?" I grabbed her ass and rejoiced when she let out a little squeal.
"Hm...Depends..." She trailed off, biting down on her bottom lip, a move with enough merit to give me a semi.
"On?"
"How sexy was it? Was there any heavy moaning involved? I'll be so sad if I missed the opportunity to see two fuck-hot people go at it. As your girl, it's my right to witness if you're going to swap spit with others." Bella nibbled on my ear and I fucking grunted.
"It wasn't voluntary on my behalf. She attacked me."
"Yum…so she's animalistic. I told you she'd be a good bed mate to include in our fun time."
I pulled back to study Bella's face. The glint in her eyes told me she was only joking….kind of. I had no doubt that she would be up for a threesome. Perhaps we can dabble into that someday, but not right now. I am WAY too selfish to share my Bella with anyone. Though the image of another hot female fondling Bella's breast is….
"Dada!" Riley yelled as he scampered over to me.
I instantly converted to daddy mode and ran to meet my toddler.
"Hey, Buddy!" I bounced him in my arms. "How's it going?"
"Belwa and Jakey are playin trucks with me." He announced gleefully.
"That sounds like fun!" I inserted enthusiastically. "Did you miss me?"
"Lots!" He nodded furiously.
"Missed you too." I kissed his chubby cheeks.
"Angela home?" I asked Bella.
"No. Alice picked her up from school then took her to have that TALK. I think they're getting ice cream."
"Aha, that means Alice is purchasing Angela a fat free yogurt."
"Probably." Bella giggled.
"I sincerely hope her little chat with Angela goes well."
"Any idea what she's going to say?"
"No, that's why I'm so concerned. Alice doesn't always tell the truth exactly and there are certain points I would rather she didn't exaggerate on."
No less than an hour later, I found myself lounging on the sofa with Jake, watching some lame show on MTV. "Jersey Shore", I think that's what Jake called it. Whatever its title, it was VERY possibly the worst program I've ever had to endure. The thought of it sends shudders through my body.
As another dreadful episode resumed, I watched Bella play with Riley. It was a beautiful sight to see how wonderful those two interacted. Joy fluttered in my body as they shared laughs and tickles. I was incredibly lucky to have a girlfriend like Bella. She accepted my children with all of her heart and though we were not legally a couple, she tackled on the occupation of stepmom better than anyone.
It was a safe bet to guess that Riley harbored more affection for Bella than he did his own biological parents! As for Angela, I think she secretly likes Bella. If Alice wasn't so manipulative, Ange and Bella could have a cute little friendship going on.
I couldn't help the surge of male pride that rippled through me at seeing my girl playing with my son. She'd make a terrific mom someday. I only hoped that day would come in the next couple of years. I wanted a family with Bella more than anything I've ever wanted before in my life. Hopefully, she reciprocates those feelings. It's not that I want A bigger family; it's that I want a bigger family with HER.
"We're hooommmmeee!" Alice sang; alerting everyone to her entrance.
"Hey Jake!" Angela had hearts in her eyes as soon as she saw him.
"Hey Ange, how's it going?" He gave her a warm smile.
Bastard! How dare he work his "moves" on my seven year old? I tell you, he's a player in the making!
I attempted to resign my anger- he's just a kid himself after all.
"Not much, you?" Ange fluttered her tiny eyelashes in a sad gesture of flirting.
Jake simply shrugged and returned his attention to the television.
"Don't I get a hello?" I asked. Angela actually blushed as she met my eyes.
"Hi daddy." She leaned over to give me a VERY awkward hug.
"I'm gonna go to my room now…" She darted- literally- out of my sight.
Curious to the scene that had just occurred; I stammered off to the kitchen after shooting Bella a quizzical look. What exactly went down in this little talk Alice gave?
Alice was on the kitchen stool, filing her nails. Oh the vanity she possesses! She didn't even say hello to Riley…
"Goodie, Eddie, you're just the person I needed to speak to."
"Right, but first we need to discuss what you told Angela. She blushed when I spoke to her. Blushed. Angela Cullen does NOT blush." I exclaimed, exasperated.
"Well, Eddie, I told her what she wanted to know. She asked point blank what Bella was doing moving on top of "Daddy"."
"Oh God, Ally! What did you tell her?" I started sweating.
"Ugh, must I spell it out for you? I told her you were having sex. And when she asked me what that meant, I divulged the basic intercourse information."
"WHAT?" The entire house shook. "You told a SEVEN YEAR OLD girl, how to have sex?"
"Ugh, don't word it like that. It makes it sound as if I was encouraging her to do it herself. I'm not going to lie to her Edward. She witnessed a grown-up activity; hence, she received a grown-up answer. There's no shame. Sex is a natural part of relationships.
Besides, it's not like I pointed to picture or gave details about erotic positions. There was none of that. And believe me, I think this just saved us from the fiasco of having a pregnant teen. We've scarred her for life." Alice actually looked thrilled about this new development.
"Ally, you are insane. Plain and simple." My hands stroked my unruly hair.
"You'll thank me for this later Mr. Cullen! By the way, if Angela asks you if Bella's pregnant, don't be alarmed. I'm not sure she understands the whole protection aspect. That piece of the explanation seemed a bit fuzzy even to me."
"Wow. Things just keep getting better. You give our baby the sex talk, but lack on the protection details. Hooray!" I sighed.
"Oh stop being so dramatic." Alice shrugged me off.
"Edward?" Alice queried.
I tensed up, detecting the change in her voice. She was serious now. Not mean serious, but serious- serious.
"Yes?" The concern was clear on my voice. A million terrible possibilities as to where this conversation could be heading hit me in a flash.
"I've been thinking really serious lately about our situation." She began.
Oh my god, YES! She's going to move out. Cue the happy dance! Oh yeah! Oh yeah!
"I love our family so much; we've made beautiful children, Edward."
"Indeed we have." I agreed.
"They're such intelligent kids and so well behaved...most of the time anyways. Anyways, I've been thinking and…"
"Yes?" I could barely contain the excitement in my voice. An Alice free household is a happy household!
"I think we should have another baby." She stated bluntly with a fucking smile spread across her face.
My mouth dropped open with so much force it felt like it would remain in that position permanently.
What. The. FUCK?
So a bit of a bombshell to end the story with.
A bombshell that is going to dramatically affect how things turn out for our beloved characters.
I was wondering, who's POV do you prefer: Bella or Edward's? Or do you like them both?
Please review and let me know what you think!
The more reviews I get, the more inspired I am to write fast…it's true. :) :)
