I DO NOT OWN TWILIGHT!

Chapter 65

"You sure you feel like going?" Edward asked.

"Dear, if you want to get married, then I have to get a dress," I said.

"You could get married in nothing and that would be fine with me," He said pulling me to him.

"That would be awkward considering our kids will be there," I laughed. "But if you are good, maybe you can get me naked after the wedding."

"Dear God," He murmured kissing me.

I wrapped my arms around him deepening the kiss. "Mama, Aunt Rose and Alice are here," Matt called.

"I'm going to be stuck with the kids and my brothers and I'm incredibly turned on right now."

"Just picture our dad's naked," I giggled.

"Gee, thanks Bella," He laughed.

"It helped didn't it?"

"It's a good thing I love you, because that was just mean."

Edward took my hand and led me downstairs to where Alice was holding Jaycie. "How are you feeling?" Rose asked.

"Pretty good right now," I said.

"Are you ready?" Alice asked.

"I guess," I sighed.

"Dad is picking you guys up in an hour," Alice said.

"Okay, we'll be ready," Edward said kissing my cheek.

Matt hugged me, kissing my stomach. "I love you mama."

"I love you too," I said hugging him back.

I kissed Jaycie's cheek. "Mama loves you," I told her.

I got in the car with Alice and Rose and we headed towards Port Angeles. "We are meeting mom, Sue and Emily at the store," Rose said.

"Have you told Emily about the baby?" Alice asked.

"No, I will today," I said.

"Have you been feeling alright?" Rose asked.

"I'm alright until around 2 and then I start feeling bad, but the actual throwing up doesn't start until between 5 and 6 in the evenings."

"We'll we can take this slow," Alice said. "I'd hate for you to vomit on all of the wedding dresses."

"That's about my worst fear," I laughed.

"My worst fear would be going into labor on my wedding day," Rose said.

"That would be awful," I said.

"Nope, standing in the middle of school teaching and your water breaking," Alice said.

"Yep, that would be the worst," I said.

"Maybe that will happen to you," Rose said.

"Doubtful, I'm not going back after summer break," I told them. "Since the baby is due early in November, we decided that I should just take that time off and not stress about work."

"We can help with Jaycie," Alice said.

"I'll need it, she'll be walking by then and I don't know how I'm going to chase her around while Edward is at work."

"Alice, how are you doing?" I asked.

"I'm alright, Jasper and I are talking about trying for another baby, but we just want to wait a few more months."

"Yay," I squealed causing them all to laugh at me.

"For a minute, you sounded like Alice," Rose laughed.

"Rose, are you and Emmett going to have kids?" Alice asked.

Rose laughed. "Um, I don't know. We tried for a while but nothing happened, so we just gave up and decided to try again later."

"Could you imagine if we were all pregnant together?" Alice asked.

"Our poor families," I laughed.

"That would be fun, but right now Emmett and I are happy spoiling our niece and nephew," Rose said.

"I guess Bella and I will just have to have tons of babies for you," Alice said.

"Edward told Matt the other night that if this was a girl, we would keep trying until we had a boy."

"You are so going have a house full of girls and end up with a boy after ten girls," Rose said.

"Oh don't say that," I laughed.

We got to the bridal shop and immediately spotted Emily standing with Esme and Sue. "Hey you," I said hugging Emily. "How are you feeling?"

"Heavy," She said smiling.

"You look amazing," I said rubbing her stomach.

"Thanks," She said. "You still want to be in the delivery room?"

"Absolutely, I need a refresher on labor and delivery," I said.

"You went through this once already, you should be helping me," She said.

"Yeah well, I'll be going through it again in November," I said.

Emily's eyes widened. "Oh Bella, congratulations," She said hugging me again.

"Thanks," I laughed.

(Sue)

We walked into the bridal store and Bella suddenly stopped. I looked at her and noticed her eyes swimming with tears. "Bella, what's the matter?" I asked putting my arm around her.

"I'm scared," She whispered.

"Bella, are you okay?" Rose asked coming over.

"Tell Alice to give us a few minutes," I told her pulling Bella over to a corner.

"Sweetheart, what is it?" I asked.

"I'm freaking out," She cried.

"Talk to me," I said.

"I'm really overwhelmed. I've done this before and then I lost Jake and here I am once again getting ready to get married, what if?" She cried.

"Bella, what if you find the most beautiful dress and you walk down the aisle and Edward is there holding your hand as you give birth?" I asked.

"What if I start showing and the dress doesn't fit on my wedding day?" She cried.

"Then, Esme and I will be up all night sewing," I said laughing. "We've already talked about it."

Bella stood there wiping her eyes. "It's going to be alright Bella."

"I'm just overwhelmed," She said smiling.

"Your hormones are flying high right now, it's alright," I said. "Now, are you ready to find a dress?"

A smile appeared on her face. "Yes"

We joined everyone else. "Bella, this is Sandy, she's going to help today," Alice said.

"Hey," Bella said softly.

Sandy shook Bella's hand. "Alice told me that you just found out you are expecting."

"Yes," She said blushing.

"Well congratulations," Sandy said. "Now, I'm going to take Bella and look at several dresses, you guys can go sit down and she will come out and show them off."

Bella looked at Sandy. "Can Alice come to?"

"Sure," She said smiling.

We all went over and sat down on a huge comfortable couch. "I really need to be walking, but sitting feels so good," Emily said sinking down into the couch. "I might not be getting up."

"We'll get you up," Rose laughed.

"Lets pray my water doesn't break here," She said rubbing her stomach.

"Have you had any labor pains?" Esme asked.

"No, I've been feeling great," Emily told her.

"That's good," Esme said.

Alice came back and sat down with us. "Is she alright?" I asked.

"She is, she's got four dresses to try, but thinks she knows which one she wants already."

Bella came out in the first one, it was white and had old fashioned lace on it. "You look beautiful," Esme said.

"Thank you," Bella said.

"Do you like that one?" Emily asked.

"I don't care much for the lace," She said.

"Go try on another one," Rose said smiling.

When Bella came out in the second one and you could tell by the look on her face, that she hated the dress. "Bella, there are tons of dresses, don't get discouraged," Sandy said. Bella walked back out with Sandy.

It seemed to take a while and I wondered where Bella had gone. "I'm going to check on her," Rose said. "Alice, Emily, come on." Esme and I laughed as they hoisted Emily up off the couch.

"Was Bella alright?" Esme asked.

"She was, she's just feeling very overwhelmed right now. She's picked out a wedding dress before and then Jake passed away."

"Oh," She said. "Then add the pregnancy hormones to that she's just struggling."

"Yeah," I said.

Esme turned towards me. "I feel so blessed that Bella is joining our family."

"We feel that way about Edward," I said.

Suddenly Bella came out biting her bottom lip and blushing. "Oh Bella," I gasped. The dress was white with a heart shaped strapless sheer gown with a satin crisscrossed bodice, corset tied back and a flowing train.

"Do you like it?" She asked.

"You look beautiful," I said walking over and hugging her. "I'm so proud of you."

"Thanks Sue, I couldn't have done this without you."

I stepped out of the way allowing Esme in. "You look incredible," She said hugging her.

Sandy stood there smiling. "Bella was telling me that she will be about 11weeks during her wedding, this dress is a little bit bigger in the stomach area just in case she does start showing."

I glanced over at Bella who had her hand on her stomach. She truly was beautiful.

Once the dress was paid for and in the back of my car Esme and Emily got in the car. "She looks even happier now than when she was getting her dress the first time," Emily said.

"I thought the same thing," I said.

"Maybe she's just older and ready this time," Esme said.

"That and her and Edward both know how fragile life can be," I said.

"I loved Lauren, but her parents were a huge issue, they didn't want her to be close to us, it was almost like they were jealous of us. I don't feel that way with Bella, I truly feel like I'm gaining another daughter, not losing a son to another family," Esme said.

"We were worried about Bella marrying Jake, because his parents were both gone and we were afraid that if something happened to us, they would really be alone," I told her.

"Sam worries about us if something happens to him," Emily said.

"You have all of us dear," Esme said.

"Thank you," She said.

"Seriously, once the baby gets a little older, Carlisle and I will babysit," Esme said. "We can handle more grandkids."

Emily laughed. "I can't wait to see Edward and Bella's baby, that baby will be beautiful."

I followed Rose into the small Italian restaurant in town. "We were going to do Chinese, but the baby in the car was craving this," Rose said getting out.

"Sounds amazing to me," Emily said.

"Seems like the baby in this car wants it to," Esme said.

(Bella)

I was thankful that we were seated immediately, I was starving. "How does it feel to have a wedding dress?" Emily asked.

"It seems so real," I said smiling.

"Oh, I need to use the bathroom," Emily said getting up quickly.

"Are you alright?" I asked.

"He's on my bladder," She said waddling off to the bathroom.

"Is she alright?" Sue asked.

"Yes, the baby was on her bladder," I said.

"Aren't you excited for all of that?" Rose asked me.

"Not one bit," I said.

Emily came back and sat down. "Sorry," She said laughing.

I reached over rubbing her stomach feeling him kick. "I can't wait to see him," I said.

"The doctor said he could come at any time, but they think he's on the bigger side so they wont let me go over my due date."

"I'll keep my cell phone on me at all times from here on out," I said.

We ate lunch and then headed home. I was starting to feel really tired and knew I needed to lay down or I would be sick.

"Bella, are you alright?" Alice asked as we were driving home.

"Just tired," I yawned.

"It will be smooth sailing from here when it comes to the wedding," Rose said.

"I still have bride's maid's dresses and a dress for Jaycie to pick out," I said.

"How about, one afternoon this week, Alice and I come over and we can look online for those dresses," Rose suggested.

"Don't I need to be there when you try them on?" I asked.

"We can Skype or you can trust us," Alice said.

"Let me think about it and talk to Edward. I'll get back to you."

It was quiet for a few minutes. "Edward said he talked to you about the honeymoon."

"He has," Alice said. "I have that taken care of."

"Oh really," I said.

Alice smiled. "You'll love it," She said smiling.

"You must tell me," Rose said.

"I will after we drop Bella off," Alice said.

"And you can tell me," I said to Rose.

"Bella, just go to sleep," Alice laughed.

"I fully intend to, after you tell me," I laughed.

"No can do, I promised my brother," She said.

"Well, guess he wont be having sex for a while either," I said blushing.

"Good one Bella," Rose said giggling.

I couldn't fight it any longer, I closed my eyes and fell asleep listening to the music in the back ground.

(Edward)

Shopping my dad, brothers, Sam, Charlie and the kids had been interesting. Matt got bored and Emmett thought it would be funny to see if he could fit in the largest pant leg in the store. While it was a little humorous, the sales associate didn't quite think it was funny. Luckily Charlie stepped in and removed Matt and Emmett from the store using his cop tone, however for as serious as he tried to sound, we could all hear the laughter in his voice.

As it was my turn to get fitted for my tux, Jaycie turned fussy. Dad tried to take her, but she held on tightly to me. Sam was the one who ended up taking her, she settled into his arms smiling up at him.

I flopped down on the chair yawning. I had a whole new appreciation for Bella taking the kids shopping. However, I couldn't help but smile at Matt asleep on the couch with Jaycie curled up against him sleeping.

I had just about dozed off when the door opened and Bella came in. She looked as drained as I felt. She dropped her purse on the floor and came over sitting on my lap. "Did you find a dress?" I asked wrapping my arms around her.

"I did, it took a few tears, but I did manage to find one," She said leaning against me. "Did you find a tux?"

"We are all dressed for the wedding, Matt included," I said.

"Alice and Rose are going to take Jaycie and find a dress," Bella yawned.

"Did you have fun?" I asked.

"I did. You should see Emily, she's about to pop."

"Sam said she's close," I replied.

"She was hoping to start having contractions today, but it didn't work," She said.

"How are you feeling?" I asked.

"Exhausted, tired, nauseous, ready to marry you," She sighed.

"Me too," I said kissing her. "I am ready to take you off for a few days on our honeymoon."

Bella sat up and looked at me. "Speaking of honeymoon, where are we going?" She asked.

I smiled. "Wouldn't you like to know."

"Yes, I would," She said.

"All I'm going to tell you, is that you don't need a passport."

"Aren't you so cute," She said looking me straight in the eyes.

"I think I am," I said kissing her.

She turned in my lap and brought her hand to my face. "For the record, I think you are fucking sexy as hell,"

"Oh God Bella," I groaned. I ran my hands up under her shirt rubbing her back as she leaned down kissing me.

"Mama," Matt said groggily.

Bella and I both jumped. "What is it?" Bella asked him.

"I'm hungry," He said.

"Okay, come with me to the kitchen and we can find something for supper."

"Daddy, are you coming with us?" Matt asked.

"In just a minute," I said.

Bella and I spent the evening with the kids. Matt, Bella and I played Uno, while Jaycie lay in Bella's arms taking her bottle. "Draw four Matt," Bella said.

Matt sighed and drew four cards. "What color?" I asked her.

"Red," She said.

I threw my red draw two card down. "Uno," I said.

Her and Matt each threw down their cards and I threw my last one down. "I won," I said grinning.

"Can you take Jaycie?" Bella asked.

"Sure," I said.

The second I picked her up, she burped. "Good job," I said patting her back.

"Dada," She said smiling.

"I love you baby girl," I said kissing her cheek.

I cuddled with Jaycie while I watched Bella and Matt giggle over the Uno game that had turned into an hour long battle. Jaycie laid her head on my shoulder playing with the hair on the back of my neck. I patted her back softly humming to her. "I love my little girl," I whispered kissing her cheek.

"Dada," She said yawning.

Bedtime cuddles was always my favorite times with my kids. When Matt was a baby, he would curl up on my chest for a long time cooing, while Jaycie liked the fine hairs on the back of my neck.

"She's sleepy, I'm going to lay her down," I said.

"That's fine," Bella said smiling.

Matt leaned over and kissed her. "Night, night," He said.

"Nigh," She said back to Matt.

"Jaycie, say Matt," He said.

"Mmmt," She said trying to say his name.

"When will she say my name?" He asked.

"It wont be long," Bella said kissing Jaycie. "I love you sweetheart."

I took Jaycie upstairs and changed her diaper, then sat in the rocking chair. She took her position on my shoulder with her hand in my hair. "You have grown up too fast," I said. She looked at me and gave me a tired smile. "I can't wait to marry your mommy," I said. I knew she couldn't understand anything I was saying, but it also made her the easiest in the house to talk to.

"Even if this baby turns out to be a little girl, you will still be my girl," I said rubbing her back. While for some reason I was positive that Bella was having a girl, it bothered me. I wanted Jaycie to always be a daddy's girl and I didn't want her to feel left out. If she was to have a boy, the age difference between Matt and the baby would be far enough apart it would make things a little easier.

Jaycie's hand dropped from my hair and I looked down to see that she was asleep. I put her in her crib and covered her up. "Sweet dreams angel, I love you."

I walked back into the livingroom. "I beat mama," Matt said.

"Only because, I forgot what I was doing and put the wrong card down," Bella said tickling Matt.

He squirmed away giggling. "Mama," He giggled.

"I'll be back," Bella said getting up and going into the bathroom.

"What's wrong with mama?" Matt asked.

"Mama's just feeling kind of yucky right now," I said.

"Did I make mommy throw up?" Matt asked.

I laughed. "Yep, every morning."

"Having a baby doesn't seem much fun to me," He said.

"Me either," I laughed. "But the end result in awesome."

Bella felt well enough to help me tuck Matt in and then went to take a shower. I sat on the edge of the bed waiting for her. She came out wearing a towel and I couldn't help but groan. She looked gorgeous.

"Come here," I said.

Bella walked over to me and stood between my legs. I wrapped my arms around her waist kissing her stomach. "The thought of seeing you in that wedding dress is almost more than I can take," I said smiling up at her.

"I hope you like it," She said leaning down to kiss me.

"I will love anything you wear."

Bella yawned. "Come here, love," I said pulling her into the bed.

"I have to get dressed in case Matt gets up," She said.

"You can sleep just like this and I will get up with the kids," I said.

She rolled over to where her back was against my chest and moved my hand to cover her stomach. "Did Jake touch your stomach a lot?" I asked.

"Yes," She said softly. "I always felt protected and safe in his arms."

"Do you feel that way now?" I asked.

"I always feel loved and safe when I'm with you."
