Bella's POV:
I grinned at the sight that welcomed me when Paul's booming voice called out "Bella wake up!" I reluctantly opened my eyes and was thrilled to see Paul holding both our sons.
I rolled into a sitting position and took Micah from Paul's arms as he settled next to me on the bed holding Noah. "Have you called my dad yet about coming up here?" I questioned as I started to feed my younger son.
Micah it seemed even at his young age looked exactly like my husband. Well his eyes right now were a piercing blue but I had no doubt that they would change to Paul's shade of grey in the near future.
Noah, the older of the two, had Paul's dark black hair and my chocolate eyes. His skin color already was Paul's as well and one of the few features that I could tell was the same.
"I did, yesterday evening when you were putting the boys down," He said running his fingers through the fine dusting of hair on Noah's head "He is going to come up here as soon as he picks Renee and Phil up at the airport." Renee and Phil hadn't made it to the wedding due to some training thing for Phil but their grandchildren's birth definitely trumped that
I nodded and leaned carefully against him "Paul are you happy?" I was worried that he wouldn't be after all we didn't get to even spend a night alone as newlyweds. It was hard to believe that we had only gotten married yesterday. The same day he fought the army of newborns and we welcomed our own two newborns into our lives.
"Bella I am happier than I have ever been before in my life." He said firmly wrapping one arm and pulling me into a fiery embrace. His lips touched the top of my head lightly "It would have been nice if these two had been patient enough to wait until we at the very least finished the nursery but they made my perfect day even better." His voice was so soothing and reassuring that I couldn't help but sink further into him.
I shut my eyes for a moment relishing in the feeling of Paul's warmth before realizing what he'd said "The nursery!" I said panicked "We'll never get it done!"
"Bella don't even think about worrying about the nursery" Alice's soft voice flitted from the doorway. She, Rosalie and Esme all came and sat at the end of the bed "We finished it last night while you two were sleeping and doing parent-y things."
"We just wanted to help" Rose smiled.
"We hope you don't mind." Esme said patting my leg gently and giving me her warm smile "The guys are just hunting and making sure there are no stragglers from the fight yesterday with the pack before your parents get here Bells."
My eyes welled with appreciative tears and Paul squeezed my shoulder and spoke for us "We can never repay you guys for all you've done for us. Thank you."
"Just let us babysit our godsons!" Rosalie joked.
"You guys are always welcome to see them" I chuckled and tried to move with some grace as Micah unlatched himself from me. "Trade Paul- you burp, I feed?"
"No honey, I can totally feed Noah" Paul said seriously while rolling his eyes and handing me Noah while simultaneously taking Micah.
"We'll call you two down when Charlie and Renee get here" Alice said before getting a look of concentration "In exactly an hour and twenty two minutes." And with that the group was gone.
"They really are interesting" Paul said shaking his head as he carefully burped Micah. He was a natural at this parenthood stuff and it made me feel a little awkward and I hoped that I only looked half as good at it as he did.
"They're the best" I sighed contently.
We sat quietly until Noah finished feeding and then Paul suggested I go and shower and he'd make sure the boys had clean diapers.
I took a short shower allowing the hot water to soothe my aching muscles and pouted when I came out and noticed that my comfortable sweats and tank top ensemble had been replaced by a low cut t shirt and a pair of jeans- well at least she kept it my style!
I tied my hair into a braid and moved to release Paul of his duties just as the boys started to whimper.
"I love you Bella" Paul whispered into my lips, kissing me shortly, as he passed me.
"Love you too" I called towards the now closed bathroom door and turned finding Rosalie standing over Micah's basinet which I assumed Paul had moved in while I was showering.
"Bella he is so beautiful" She murmured tracing her icy fingers over him.
"You can hold him you know" I teased playfully picking Noah up and bringing him to the bed where I had noticed matching outfits laid out. They were white onesies and tiny jumpers that were cream with tiny teddy bears in one corner.
"I'm scared I will hurt him." She said quietly and I could hear the honest fear in her voice.
I walked over to her after picking Noah back up and hugged her awkwardly. "Rosalie I trust you with him. You will never hurt him." I said firmly squeezing her hand lightly. "He is more sturdy than you'd think and if Emmett can do it without hurting him so can you" I finished on a lightly teasing note.
She smiled and within a split second she had lifted him up. He yawned and reached towards her and I loved the smile that came over her face when he put one hand on her face for a second before snuggling into her. "Thank you Bella."
"Well why don't we get these two dressed before Alice comes in having meltdown because they aren't ready to meet their grandparents."
"Probably a good plan" Rosalie laughed. I pouted when she finished dressing Micah perfectly in mere seconds as I struggled to get the onesie over Noah's head as he struggled, fussily.
"Bella, Paul, Rosalie you better get those adorable babies down here their grandparents are at the end of the driveway" Alice shouted obviously impatient.
I felt a small tug at my hands and when I looked back from the doorway Noah was dressed and Rosalie was smiling smugly at me from the edge of the bed. "Thanks!" I said gratefully as Paul hurried out only wearing a towel.
"Why is the evil pixie yelling now?" He questioned and Rosalie and I both burst out laughing.
"Renee, Charlie and Phil are here." I laughed and Rose handed Micah to me leaving the room so Paul could get dressed.
"Crap," Paul groaned quietly and tried to hurry and throw clothes on. I just sat and watched, the twins balanced carefully in my lap. "Bella I really don't think your mother likes me."
"It doesn't matter if she does or not – I love you and she has to accept that!" I said as firm in this conviction as I was that Rose would never hurt Micah or Noah.
"Guys they're here!" Alice called loudly and I could imagine her standing at the base of the stairs arms crossed, forehead furrowed and tapping one foot, waiting to make sure we all looked presentable and up to her standards.
