Six Years Later

Bella's POV:

"Mommy?" Leilah's voice called out from the other side of my closed bedroom door. A small knock followed a few seconds of silence.

"Yeah, Lei? Come in," I answered, setting the manuscript I was reading down on the bed.

The door opened and Leilah walked in.

It was surreal to see my little girl all grown up. At the age of ten, she had lost all of baby features and was slowly growing into a young woman. As the years progressed her wavy brown hair became tamer and lighter. The olive colored tone of her skin, which she could thank Jacob for, made her aunts jealous. She spent her days slowly becoming a preteen, constantly on the phone or online with one of her friends talking about whatever up and coming teen sensation was popular at the time.

My little girl was growing up so quickly.

Leilah took a seat next to me on the bed. "Daddy just called."

I looked over at her. "I didn't hear the phone ring."

"I was on the phone."

"Of course you were," I chuckled. "What did daddy say?"

"Him and Luke are on their way home. He said to tell you to be ready when he got home."

I smiled at the mention of my Lucas Christopher. While Leilah would always be my baby, Luke was my little man. At four and a half, he was getting into all sorts of trouble at his day care I took him to a few times a week. Esme said he's just like his father was, always getting into anything and everything he could get his hands on.

Come the fall, he would be starting kindergarten and I was waiting for the day he would come home rambling about his new girlfriend. It was bad enough he was charming the little girls at his preschool. I could only imagine what he would be like once he reached college.

Edward was more than thrilled when the doctor told us we were going to have a boy. He walked away from the appointment a proud man. He was going to have a son, someone to carry on his name.

Luke was a lady killer from the start. As a baby, I couldn't take him anywhere without random women coming up and gushing about how cute he was. Everyone loved him and his green eyes, which thankfully he inherited from his father. His hair was a different story. He was born with a full head of deep brown hair, just like mine. He is also showing signs that he inherited my clumsiness. He's already had his fair share of visits to the Emergency Room, a few of them while Edward was working.

"Bella? Leilah?" Edward voice called from downstairs. "Are you girls ready?"

I looked across at Leilah. "I guess daddy's home now."

"Yup!" Leilah said, jumping off the bed and running out.

Leilah and Edward had this special bond between one other. She'd always shown favoritism towards Edward, but since Edward had officially become her "daddy" the two were practically inseparable.

I got up off the bed, grabbed my purse and headed downstairs.

We were going over to the Whitlock's for our, now weekly, Sunday dinner. The Sunday breakfasts we used to have phased out a few years ago, once all the kids were a bit older and Rosalie and Emmett had their twins, Madison and Olivia. The diner was getting too small for the six of us and our loud obnoxious children. Now, every Sunday, we took turns having dinner at each of our houses.

In the winter, Alice, Rosalie and I usually made some form of soup and we would all huddle around the living room and watch a movie together, with the fire place going. The spring was usually filled with some sort little league game and Sunday dinners were spent at the nearest pizza place we could find.

But the summers were my favorite. With the older kids out of school and restless, a barbecue was usually in order. The boys would stand around the barbecue looking manly drinking beers and talking, while the girls sat on the patio drinking ice tea and talking about our weeks. The kids usually ran around the yard, draining all the pent up energy they had stored.

"Momma!" Luke yelled as I stepped off the final stair. He immediately dropped the bag in his hand and ran over to me. His arms wrapped around my legs, nearly knocking me over.

"Hey buddy, how was the store?" I picked him up. Man he was getting heavy.

"Good, daddy bought me a new glove. He said that he'll play catch with me later tonight at Auntie Alice's. Do you think maybe I could get Liam to play with me?"

"I'm sure he'd love to, Luke."

Luke smiled, the corner of lips slightly crooked. He was picking up on more of Edward's mannerisms as each day passed.

"Can we go now? I wanna go play with Liam and Cami!" Luke squirmed out of my arms.

"Let's go." I looked over at Edward who was just smiling.

"Come on, Luke, I'll race you to the car," Leilah said, opening the door and running out, Luke not too far behind her.

"Hey, love." Edward walked over, pressing a kiss to my temple.

"Hey, daddy."

Edward smiled. He loved being a dad. Things between the two of us were great. We'd fallen into the groove of married and family life easily. We walked around looking like pros balancing work and home.

"How was your day, love?" Edward pressed another kiss to my temple.

"Good, I'm about done with that manuscript I've been trying to get through."

"Well, that's good. I think you're going to need take Luke shopping for school soon."

"Why?" I questioned. "I was going to take him in a few weeks."

"Well, when we were at the store I had to pull him away from the backpacks. He kept going on and on and on about how he was so excited for school."

I smiled. "Edward, our little boy is growing up."

"He is. You know, I never thought parenthood would be this amazing."

"Yes, Edward..." I patted him on the back. "Parenthood is like none other. You're a great father."

Edward smiled back at me. "Thank you, I just wish I had more time to spend with Leilah and Luke."

"Edward, they understand, you spend all the time you're not working with them. You know, just yesterday Luke told me he wants to be a doctor just like you."

"Really?" Edward asked, his eyes beaming with happiness.

"Yeah," I nodded my head. "He said he wants to save lives just like his daddy."

"Like father, like son."

"Yes, like father like son. Let's get going. Head out to the car, I'll meet you there. I have to grab the hamburger meat out of the fridge."

Edward nodded and headed out the door. I stood in the doorway watching Edward get into the car, turning immediately towards the backseat. He loved being a father and it showed in the way he acted around Leilah and Luke. There wasn't anything he wouldn't do for them. Everything he did was for us, for them.


Rosalie's POV:

"Camilla Marie, get your ass down here now!" Emmett yelled, struggling to tie Olivia's shoes.

Two year olds can be stubborn, especially when it comes to my twins. Madison and Olivia were two of the most stubborn little girls I'd met.

"I'm coming dad, hold on, gosh!" Cami's voice echoed, sounding a bit irritated.

I shook my head. Cami was almost six, but she had a personality of her own. I guess I could blame myself for that one. On more than one occasion we had to sit her down and talk to her about the proper way to act around adults and to respect Emmett and me. My daughter had an attitude; she reminded me a lot of how I was when I was her age. With her blond hair and piercing blue eyes, she was the spitting image of me. She needed to have a strong attitude and her head on her shoulders to take on the world when she got older. Emmett told me one night that he was dreading the day she comes home telling him she had a boyfriend. He went on talking about he was going to have the poor kid over for dinner and have a man to man talk with him. He then convinced himself she wasn't going to date until she was moved out of the house.

Right, like that was going to happen. My daughter was beautiful. She was going to have the boys following her around like lost puppies.

"Ma," Madison mumbled in my arms, struggling to get down.

"I know, you're anxious to go, huh?" I smiled, setting her down. She ran over to Emmett.

Madison and Olivia were definitely Emmett's children. They weren't identical, which Emmett was extremely thankful for. I kept trying to tell him that his paternal instinct would kick in and he would be able to tell them apart, but he spent weeks worrying about it. Madison had Emmett's curly brown hair and his deep brown eyes, while Olivia had Emmett's mahogany tone and my dead straight hair and deep blue eyes. They had Emmett's personality though. The two of them could keep going forever and ever, and usually tired Emmett out night after night. Madison and Olivia...they were daddy's girls.

Cami came trudging down the stairs, nasty look on her face. I could hear Emmett scolded her for her attitude.

"Emmett, why don't you take the girls and get them situated in the car. I'm gonna talk to Cami real quick," I said, walking over to the stairs.

"Yeah, sure, whatever." Emmett rolled his eyes. He wasn't a fan of Cami's attitude and wasn't afraid to show it. He picked Olivia and Madison up in his arms and walked out the door.

"Cam..." I sat down on the stairs, motioning for her to join me.

"Mom, I'm fine," she said, sitting down.

"I know you're fine but, Cami we've talked to you about your attitude."

"Daddy doesn't have to yell at me."

"Cam, he told you several times to hurry up."

"I was playing."

"Baby, but we're gonna be late to Auntie Alice's house. Don't you want to go play at Liam's?"

"Yeah," she sighed, her eyes lighting up at the mention of Liam.

"So then? You can play with your dolls later, baby. Your daddy loves you, there's no need for you to get mad at him."

"He got mad at me first!"

"Because he asked you to hurry up and you still continued to play."

"I wanted to play," she pouted, crossing her arms across her chest.

"Cami, don't do this. I don't want to be the bad guy. We've talked to you about your attitude and we're not going to tolerate it. You know that."

"I know, I'm sorry, mommy." She looked over at me, batted her eyelashes and stuck out her pouty lip.

"Oh no, missy, I'm not going to fall for that look. I know that look, I owned that look when I was your age. It might work for you father, but not me." I reached over and started to tickle her sides.

"Ah, mommy, stop. I don't like being tickled," she squeaked out in between giggles.

"Are you gonna can the attitude?" I stopped momentarily and looked at my daughter seriously.

"Yes."

"Promise?"

"Swear." She stuck her pinky out. I laughed.

I wrapped my pinky around my daughter's, giving it a quick shake, like we always did.

"Come on, Cami, let's get going before you father starts to get worried." I stood up, offering my hand to her.

"Okay." She placed her hand in mine and I helped pull her up off the stairs.

I knew this little heart to heart with Cami wasn't going to be the last, but it was step. Maybe Emmett was right, she shouldn't be allowed to date until she's out of the house.

We walked outside to an awaiting Emmett.

"Come on ladies, let's get going, I'm hungry!" Emmett exclaimed from outside the car.

"You're always hungry, daddy," Cami sang, running over to give Emmett a hug. "I'm sorry for giving you an attitude earlier."

Emmett bent down to Cami's eye level. "You're forgiven, no more attitude?"

"No more attitude." Cami flashed him a smile and placed a kiss on his cheek.

"Alright, get in the car, missy."

Cami nodded her head and ran around to the other side of the car.

"Thank you for talking to her, Rosie." Emmett draped his arm around my shoulder.

"Eh, no problem, just another day in the life of mommy, I knew you didn't have the patience for her this morning."

"I didn't. It's amazing how I have enough patience for any of you girls."

"Oh, Em, just wait until Cam's older along with the twins, they're not that far behind, when we're all PMS-ing-"

Emmett groaned, interrupting me. "I'll spend the week at Jasper's. It's just him, Liam and Alice. Men rule that house."

"Right." I rolled my eyes "Alice rules that house. Don't forget Alice-"

"I can deal with Alice," Emmett retorted.

"Sure you can." I kissed him quickly on the lips. "I love you, Emmett, thank you."

"I love you too, Rosie, but why are you saying thank you for?"

"For giving me my family."

"Oh, I should be the one thanking you. You gave me three beautiful daughters."

"Even if they're all girls, you don't have a son, Emmett."

"Did you ever think that maybe I didn't want one?" Emmett said with a smirk.

"That is a lie, Emmett. You were hoping for one of the twins to be a boy and you know it! You're mother told me how she caught you wandering into the boy section at the baby store when I was pregnant with the girls."

"Um..." Emmett looked around. "Eh, what can I say? I love my girls, I wouldn't give them up for anything."


Alice's POV:

The sound of the door unlocking, followed by the steady echoing of small feet running across the tile and yelling filled the what was empty house. It was Sunday afternoon and the boys were due to be back from the park, where they were doing "boy stuff" as Liam started to call it. Really, it was just the boys throwing around a baseball and getting ice cream afterwards, which they didn't think I knew about."

"Mommy, mommy, mommy!" Liam yelled, running into the kitchen.

I smiled at my little boy. He was growing up so fast. He was in second grade now and loving every minute of it. It seemed to be that every day he woke up looking more and more like Jasper.

"Yes, baby?" I set the knife I was cutting watermelon with down, bending down to Liam's eye level.

"Daddy taught me how to throw a curve ball!" Liam exclaimed, holding up the leather glove in his hands.

"Did he?"

"Yeah and I almost hit daddy in the head." Liam let out a little giggle.

"Well, sounds like you boys had lots of fun. Are you hungry?"

"Starving! What's for lunch?"

"Your favorite..."

"Auntie Bella's homemade hamburgers?!"

I quickly nodded. I had no idea what was so special about Bella's hamburgers, but they were a huge hit with the kids and they were constantly asking for them.

"When's Auntie Bella coming, mommy? I'm hungry."

"You're always hungry, just like your Uncle Emmett." I shook my head standing back up. I pulled out a fork from the drawer and stabbed a piece of watermelon.

"Here, this should tie you over. Go change out of your clothes, everyone will be here soon."

Liam took the fork from my hand sticking the watermelon piece in his mouth, before handing the fork back to me.

"Thank you," he mumbled, running out of the kitchen, nearly running into Jasper.

"Hey, Liam, walk please," Jasper scolded, walking into the kitchen.

"Hey, Jazz." I went back to cutting watermelon.

"Hey, Darlin'." He kissed my cheek softly before walking to the sink to wash his hands. "You need any help?"

"Um, I think I'm okay. You can start up the barbecue."

"Hmmm, I have a better idea." Jasper grabbed my wrist, taking the knife I had in my hand out, setting it down.

He spun my body around, pinning me against the counter.

"Jasper..." his name escaped my lips. I could feel his body against mine, his lips trailing dangerously close against my neck.

"Yes, Ali?"

His hand reached behind me.

"Hmmm, this is delicious," Jasper said, taking a big bite of watermelon. Some juice dripping down his chin.

"Brat!" I pushed him away, turning away from him.

"Awe, Alice, darlin' don't be like that."

"Go start the barbecue." I picked the knife up off the counter, motioning it towards the window looking out towards the backyard, before I continued cutting the watermelon.

I heard Jasper sigh as he walked out of the kitchen. The door swung open and close, but before it swung back open, Jasper came strolling back in a shit eating grin on his face.

With force he pulled the knife out of my hand, setting it down on the counter. His arms wrapped around me, supporting my body as he dipped me. His lips were hovering over mine.

"Darlin', have I told you how much I love you? Cause I do," he whispered against my lips. He kissed me, but it wasn't one of those simple kisses. It was one of those searing "I love the shit out of you and I wanna show you" type of kisses. The type that made my knees weak and my body limp.

"Ewwwwww," Liam exclaimed from behind Jasper.

I couldn't help but laugh at my son's reaction to the kiss, as Jasper pulled me back up so I was standing.

"Liam, my son..." Jasper walked over to Liam. "There are things in life you need to learn. Like how to treat a lady right. We, Whitlock's are known to have that southern charm all the girls fawn over. It's something you should use to your advantage. It never fails; look at your mother-" Jasper turned his head back towards me. "She fell for my southern charm and cowboy boots." He winked.

"Liam, don't listen to your father he's crazy!" I said, returning my attention back to the watermelon.

"Come on, Lee, let's go do man stuff and start up the barbecue. Everyone should be here soon."


Jasper's POV:

"So, I finally agreed to let Cami dance," Emmett said, turning his body away from the barbecue.

"But I thought you decided you didn't want your daughter skipping around on a stage half naked, Emmett?" Edward asked a keen smirk on his face. He knew Emmett was going to break down eventually. When it came to Emmett and his girls, he always broke down and gave in. Especially if Rosalie was on their side, there was no way to stop them from getting what they wanted.

"I didn't and I'm still not completely sold on the idea, but..." Emmett looked away embarrassed.

"But what?" Edward pressed.

Emmett took a deep breath. "Rosalie showed up at my office one afternoon, claiming she 'got off of work early'." Emmett rolled his eyes. "She strolls right into my office, locks the door and proceeds to..." His voice trailed off. "Let's just say I missed the deadline I was supposed to meet that afternoon."

"Oh the joys of work place trysts," Edward said with a smile.

"That's right!" Emmett exclaimed. "Edward and Bella and their sexy doctor and patient fantasies."

Edward blushed. "Yeah, well, you guys are just jealous."

"Hell yeah we are," I said, taking a drink of beer. "On call rooms and hospital beds, the adrenaline rush of getting caught at anytime. Offices have doors you can lock, hospitals are a bit more complicated."

"Oh, so Luke got in trouble his week at the daycare Bella's been taking him to a few days a week," Edward said, breaking away from the current subject of his and Bella's sex life.

"What happen? Did he eat the glue, because I used to eat the glue all the time?" Emmett admitted. "I could totally relate to the little guy."

"No, he didn't eat the glue. I get this phone call from Bella and she's freaking out. Apparently the owner called her asking to schedule a meeting with us. I get there and Luke is sitting in the corner, staring at the wall. I was running late and by time I got there, the owner had already told Bella what had happened."

"What happen?" I asked.

"Apparently, my son was curious," Edward said proudly.

"Curious?"

"He was caught with one of the little girls behind a tree pulling his pants down. According to the kids they wanted to know what made girls and boys different, because I guess the girls' parents told her that boys have different private parts. You should've seen the look on Bella's face; she was beet red and mortified."

"What did you tell him?" Emmett asked, taking a sip of beer.

Edward smirked. "I gave him a pat on the back and said 'Good job, son. Don't tell your mom I said that', then took him out for ice cream."

"Man, I wish I had a son to be proud of because he's getting curious with the little girls on the playground," Emmett sighed.

"Yes, but, Emmett..." Edward put his hand on Emmett's shoulder. "...you have three lovely little girls who will be showing their girly parts off to little boys on the playground. And imagine the day that they come home with a hickey on their neck or when you catch them making out in the backseat of some boy's car, or..."

"Or when your oldest daughter is caught kissing a boy behind a tree," I said interrupting Edward, motioning behind them.

Cami was leaning against the tree, Liam holding her hand tightly. Their eyes were shut tight, their lips pressed against each other's.

"What the hell?!" Emmett yelled. "Jasper, your son is trying to make a move on my daughter!"

Before I could stop him, Emmett had dropped the tongs in his hands and was running after Liam.

Maybe this afternoon when I was telling him about the "Whitlock Charm" I should've mentioned that he should keep the charming of girls away from the eyes of their over protective fathers.


Alice's POV:

"So, Emmett and I decided to give in and enroll Cami into dance classes," Rosalie said, taking a sip of her ice tea.

We had just finished up dinner and everyone slipped into their normal Sunday routines. The boys were standing around drinking beers, while watching the kids. Liam and Luke were throwing a baseball back and forth; those two were thick as thieves, inseparable.

Well, that was until Cami would walk by and Liam would get distracted for a few minutes. If it was the last thing I did they would end up getting married.

The girls were sitting in the shade of the oak tree in the corner of the yard. Leilah was braiding Cami's hair. The twins were too busy playing with their toys to even notice anything going around them.

"I thought Emmett didn't want his daughter dancing around a stage half naked?" Bella asked.

"Yes, well I think it would be good for her. After talking to Emmett and with some friendly persuasion, he finally gave in," Rosalie added.

"Of course he did," I said with a smile. I turned to look at Bella. "So, how was your week, Bella?"

Bella groaned. "Quite interesting…"

"What happen?" Rosalie asked, interested.

"Well, Wednesday afternoon I get a call from the daycare Luke goes to, right. The owner was asking if Edward and I could come down that afternoon to talk before taking Luke home," Bella started to explain, a blush creeping up on her cheeks.

"Uh oh, Bella what happen?" I asked curious. My nephew was known to get into some trouble from time to time, but I'd never heard of both Bella and Edward getting roped into a meeting.

"Well, my son was caught showing his boy parts to one of the girls at day care." Bella buried her face in her hands, while Rosalie and I burst into laughter. "To make matters worse she had her dress pulled up around her waist, panties down around her ankles." The muffled sounds of Bella's voice could barely be heard, but it was distinct enough to figure out what she was saying.

"It was so mortifying you guys, it's not funny," Bella whined. "The girl's mom is one of those super duper mommies who volunteer everywhere. Her and her husband we were walking in as Edward and I were walking out. I couldn't look her in the face, I was so embarrassed. The next day when I saw her she just smiled and waved at me like it was nothing."

"What did you do, Bella?" I asked.

"Edward talked to him, thank god. I'm not prepared for that yet with Luke. Leilah, I know it's coming, but she's older and...ah!"

"Awe, Bella." Rosalie leaned over, putting her hand over Bella's. "Boys will be boys. It could've been worse."

"Yeah, I guess." Bella sighed.

Just as I was about to open my mouth to say something, Emmett's loud voice interrupted me.

"What the hell?! Jasper, your son is trying to make a move on my daughter!"

The three of us looked across the yard, where the kids were. Liam and Cami were hidden behind the large oak tree, Liam's hand in Cami's. Emmett looked pissed as he stalked off towards the kids. Edward and Jasper where laughing.

"Liam, run sweetie!" I yelled out, catching Liam's attention. He looked away from Cami and saw Emmett coming towards them and took off.

"Boys..." Bella shrugged. "You're lucky, Rose."

"Ha! I'm lucky?" Rosalie pointed at herself. "I've got a daughter who has an attitude and apparently kisses boys behind trees."

"I've got a son who at four and a half has already seen his first vagina."

We all looked at each other and laughed. Life had changed so much since high school that was for sure.

"Well, I've got something to tell you guys," I said proudly.

Rosalie and Bella looked at me with curiosity.

"Go on, Ali," Bella pressed.

"Yeah, come on, Alice. You can't leave us hanging like that." Rosalie smiled.

"Okay..." I took a deep breath. I couldn't believe I was going to do this. "don't tell Jasper, because I haven't told him yet, but I wanted to be sure before I said anything-"

"Ohmygod!" Rosalie squealed, clamping her hand over her mouth.

"You're pregnant," Bella whispered.

I quickly nodded my head.

"Ah!" Bella and Rosalie screamed. They immediately got up from their spots and enveloped me in a group hug.

"That is so amazing. I know you and Jasper have been trying. It's about time you start to fill up this house of yours. Congrats, Alice," Bella said, letting go.

"Yeah, congrats, how far along are you?" Rosalie's hand ghosted over my non existent belly.

"Hey!" I pushed her hand away. I didn't need her spoiling the news before I could tell Jasper. "I went to the doctor a couple weeks ago. I wanted to wait a few weeks after I found out to tell Jasper, didn't wanna get his hopes up after..."

My voice trailed off. Two years ago, as Jasper and I were trying to have a baby, we were thrilled to be pregnant again, but fate wasn't on our sides. I lost the baby 8 weeks into the pregnancy. I was devastated and crushed, especially since Rosalie just had the twins and being around babies wasn't the easiest for me.

It took Jasper and I a year and a half to be ready again to try and try we did. After four months of trying, things worked in our favor.

"About ten weeks," I finished.

"Hey, what's all the squealing about over here?" Jasper asked, walking over to us.

Bella smiled. "Oh nothing, daddy." She got up, walking over towards Edward.

"Yeah, nothing, daddy," Rosalie added, also standing up following Bella, leaving me alone with Jasper.

"Um, that was awkward." Jasper took a seat down next to me.

"Yeah, my friends, eh," I chuckled. "They're pretty crazy. You shouldn't listen to them."

"Oh, I shouldn't?"

"No, you shouldn't."

"Well, then I shouldn't pick up the fact that they both called me 'daddy' as well as the fact that Rosalie's rubbed your stomach. Alice is there something you're not telling me?"

I smirked. This wasn't how I wanted him to find out, but...there's not better time than now.

"Ten weeks."

Jasper's eyes grew wide. "You're kidding."

"I'm serious, Jasper. We're gonna have a baby."

"Alice, that's great!" Jasper exclaimed, wrapping his arms around me. "How long have you known and didn't tell me?"

"A few weeks now, I went to the doctors at the beginning of the month." I looked away from him. I didn't want him to be upset because I decided to keep this small detail away from him.

"Hey, look at me." His fingers pushed my chin up, so my eyes met his. "Why didn't you tell me?"

"I wanted to be sure and give it a few weeks to sink in. I'm ten weeks."

Jasper smiled. "We're gonna have a baby."

"We're gonna have a baby." I nodded.
