Chapter Fifteen

Safe at Last

The group stayed in their protective formation until the Volturi and their guard were out of sight and scent. Once they were gone, they all relaxed and began to talk.

The door to the house burst open and they all looked up to see Bella.

"That was amazing!" Bella gushed, running forward to hug her cousin. "I watched it all from upstairs!"

"I'm just glad they're gone." Hermione sighed.

"I don't think they'll be back in a hurry." Hans chuckled. "I have never seen a Vampire more scared."

Kali and Guy ran forward and hugged their mother's legs. "Is the nasty man gone?" Guy asked.

Hermione knelt down and hugged the twins. "Yes, he's gone." She assured them.

"He won't be back?" Kali whispered.

"No, he won't be. I promise." Hermione smiled.

"Love you Mummy." Kali whispered.

"Love you too." Guy added.

"I love you both too." Hermione replied, kissing each child on the head. "So much."

Edward knelt down and hugged them all, thankful that his small family was safe. "We both do."

"So, are we going back now?" Harry asked, rubbing the back of his neck.

Hermione looked up at Bella. "I think Edward and I are going to stay here and catch up Bella and Jacob with the twins, if that's okay with you guys?"

"Sure. We have the spare room for the twins." Bella grinned, excited.

"I guess that settles it then." Edward smiled.

The pack, Bella and the Cullen family watched as the rest of the large group held onto the rope once more and were whisked away.

"So, what have you guys been up to since we last saw you?" Hermione asked, clapping her hands together.

After a long while, everyone was suitably caught up, the Pack had gone home and the group of six were lounging in Bella and Jacob's front room, watching a DVD.

Guy let out a large yawn, soon followed by his sister. The twins were curled up on the floor by the sofa which both Hermione and Edward were sat on.

"Looks like someone's tired." Edward joked softly.

"Na uh." Kali protested, another yawn ruining the effect.

"Hmm, I think otherwise. How about you, Hermione?" Edward grinned.

"Definitely tired." Hermione agreed, also grinning.

"Do you want any help?" Bella asked. "It's late and Jacob and I were heading to bed in a minute anyway."

"We're fine. Thanks though." Hermione smiled, scooping Guy onto her hip as Edward did the same with Kali.

"So what age do they stop sleeping?" Jacob asked as he followed the Vampire couple upstairs.

"Carlisle's not sure, but he thinks around the time they're full grown." Edward replied, smiling as Kali snuggled into his neck for comfort.

"Cute." Bella sighed.

Jacob glanced at her. "I know that look. Someone's getting broody. Not until after the wedding."

"But Jake, if we try early then we get one quicker." Bella begged.

"No. I want some peace before a kid comes along." Jacob replied firmly. It was obviously an old argument.

Bella pouted, but said no more on the matter.

The two couples bid each other goodnight and slipped into their respective bedrooms.

Together, the Vampires slid their children into the double bed and tucked them in tightly.

"Love you Mummy, Daddy." Guy murmured. Kali was already asleep next to him.

Hermione smiled and gently stroked his honey brown hair off his forehead. "We love you too, sweetheart. Sweet dreams." She kissed his head.

After the soft breathing and steady heartbeats of the twins filled the room, Hermione turned to see that Edward was sat in the only seat. Edward grinned and patted his leg.

"Hmm, such a dilemma where to sit." Hermione said sarcastically.

She walked over and perched herself on her husband's lap, leaning into his strong chest.

Their eyes drifted to the children.

"I don't what I would have done if we lost them." Hermione whispered.

"Me either. But they're safe and we still have two more children to have." Edward grinned, waggling his eyebrows.

Hermione chuckled and kissed his neck. "Then we'll be content. Our perfect family."

"A family with the woman you love is always perfect." Edward told her. "And I love you with my very being."

"I love you too." Hermione smiled, kissing him on the lips softly.

"Forever?" Edward purred.

"From now till the end of time." Hermione added.

"Beyond even true death?" Edward smiled.

"Always." Hermione confirmed.

"So, two more children to go." Edward began to kiss his wife's neck, making her moan softly.

"Edward, quit it. We have plenty of time to work on that. Now is definitely not the time." Hermione scolded softly.

Edward stopped kissing her and looking into her topaz eyes, serious once more.

"You know, I thank God everyday that I met you. That you came to Forks." Edward whispered.

Hermione conjured a pillow and whacked him around the head. "Mushy old fool." She laughed affectionately.

"Your Mushy old fool." Edward grinned as he began to tickle his wife. "Forever yours."

Please Read and Review. It was a very mushy chapter, I know, but it has meaning for them two. Check out my one shot if you haven't already focussed on the Singer series
