A/N I am so sorry it has been so long since I updated. I got a new puppy and she decided chewing on my laptops power cord was a good idea. I had to wait until it was fixed. This will be chapter one of a double posting to make up for the time. I hope you enjoy and as always please review, it would mean a lot.
Jule’s POV:
I was quickly becoming excited that I never had to sleep. There was so much going on, and things that needed to be discussed. Liam was much happier now that he had everyone in his life that he wanted. Emmett was constantly glowing, a proud new dad, soon to be married again, we were both two of the happiest people in the entire world. I was even feeling optimistic about the upcoming meeting with my mom, although I was still incredibly nervous. Today is the morning of the day we will go to meet her. Emmett and I are lounging on the couch in the living room, Liam and Renesmee are on the floor playing together and I love watching them. It’s a nice switch from Emmett and his constant sports.
Esme drifted into the house after being gone for a few hours, and seemed to be bouncing. I smiled up at her, “Well aren’t you in an incredible mood. What’s up?” Esme simply squealed, “It’s done, everything is in. You have to come see it.” It took me a few moments to register what she was saying, “The house? You finished it? What about Liam’s room?” She smiled and looked at her grandson with so much love in her eyes, “It’s finished, he actually picked out the colors. We asked him while you were still changing.” I looked at Liam and smiled, “Did you help grandma pick things out for your new room?” He smiled and without looking away from his toys, “I helped.” It was easy to see he was very proud of himself. Ever since he said his first words he was talking at an increasing rate. Little by little he was picking up new words. He was progressing by the hour instead of the day like Renesmee had.
I took Emmett’s hand in mine, he picked Liam up, and we ran to our new house. Liam giggled the entire time. He seemed to love everything about going fast. He was just like his father. I couldn’t wait to see them out on the field playing baseball together, I’m sure Liam will be just as competitive as his daddy. When we finally got to the house I was in heaven. It was such a beautiful home, exactly what I would have chosen for myself. Liam smiled and pulled on Emmett’s ear, “What’s up buddy?” Liam pointed to the house, “Dat ours.” I looked at Emmett and Liam and they both smiled back at me, “That’s right angel, this is our home. Do you like it?” Liam scrunched his little eyebrows up and seemed to be thinking very hard. Finally he nodded his head, “It’s good.” We all chuckled and followed Esme as she walked inside.
I could have cried I was so happy. It was perfect, from every piece of furniture to the pictures on the walls, even the rugs, it was incredible. When you walked in the front door there was a beautiful foyer with high ceilings. To the left was an incredible living room with a huge television and game systems for Emmett. To the right was the huge dining room, that lead into an extremely extravagant kitchen. There was a family room behind the living room and a bathroom next to that. The stairway was in the foyer and led up to four huge bedrooms. Our master bedroom had an incredibly large king sized bed. It had a beautiful bedroom set, a huge fireplace and was amazingly cozy. There was a double door that Esme explained was our closet, freshly stocked of course. Another door caught my eye and Esme grabbed my hand, “This is the master bathroom. A very large stand in shower, and Jacuzzi tub. I thought you would enjoy that”. I nodded my head, I loved it. Across the hall was Liam’s room. I had to laugh when I walked in, it seemed he had his grandmothers flare for decorating. His room was adorable, he picked out Mickey Mouse playing sports for his theme, and all the colors matched perfectly. He had his crib, changing table, dresser for his clothing, along with a very large closet, I’m sure Alice wouldn’t have it any other way. He had quite a few toy boxes filled to the brim with toys. My favorite part was that next to his window was a beautiful rocking chair, I couldn’t wait to use it.
Esme took us back out into the hallway, to the left of the stairwell was an absolutely huge bathroom. I was confused, “Why do we have 3 bathrooms?” Esme chuckled, “I figured Liam deserved his own. It has a potty training toilet in it already, a sink with a race car toothbrush and a huge bathtub. We can add a shower if he wants when he is older. Liam stretched out of Emmett’s arms and pulled on Esme’s shirt, “That mine Gama?” She just melted at his words, “Yes sweetheart, that’s all yours.” Liam smiled, “Big pool.” We all laughed. Esme had us follow her to the two additional rooms, one was obviously meant to be a playroom for Liam, and the other looked like a hotel room, a guest room Esme had explained. I was actually happy to have it, I hoped Rosalie would use it often, I’m sure Liam wouldn’t have it any other way. He rarely let her out of his sight.
I wrapped my arms carefully around Esme, “Thank you so much, it is perfect, I couldn’t have imagined it any better. Do you want to know my favorite part?” Esme smiled and nodded. “My favorite part is how close we are to our family.” Esme’s eyes got wide, and I think if she could she would be crying, she pulled me close and whispered, “Thank you Jule you have no idea how much that means to me.” Emmett smiled and walked over to us with Liam still in his arms, he pulled us all into a huge bear hug, Emmett style. He looked at me, kissed my lips, “We are home love.” He stared into my eyes for a moment and then I felt a little hand on my face, “Mommy mad.” I was startled by it, “No sweety, I’m not mad, I’m very happy.” He furrowed his little brows and pressed his hand harder to make his point, “Not mad now, mad later. No Lies.” I would have to ask Edward about that when we went back to the big house. I wanted to be with the rest of our family to talk strategy before I met with my mother in a few short hours.Edward’s POV:
I was sitting at the piano, playing a song for Renesmee when Esme, Emmett, Jule and Liam walked in the door. I smiled at Jule, “What would you like to know.” She chuckled, “I love how easy is it to ask you a question, Edward. When we were at the house Liam said I was mad, or rather that I would be mad later, and then he said ‘no lies’, can you see what he means by that. I walked over to Liam and held out my arms, Liam shook his head, “No Rose.” I smiled, “No, I’m not Rosalie, but may I ask you a question?” Liam sighed, as if this was really an inconvenience for him, it was really quite adorable. “Liam why did you tell your mommy she would be mad later?” Liam thought about what he said and I clearly saw what he meant. “He was touching you when he said that, he had another vision, one of this afternoon. He saw you get very angry at your mother’s mate, I just don’t understand the ’no lies’ comment. Liam would you mind thinking about that one more time?” Liam started to whimper and look absolutely pitiful. He was shaking his head back and forth, and within a second he was wailing. “My-Rose” hiccup, “My-Rose.” Thankfully Rosalie was close by so she heard him. She came down the stairs at an incredible speed, even for a vampire. She scooped him into her arms, and he was instantly quiet. He sighed again, but this was an obvious sigh of relief.
I laughed, “What a strong bond already, incredible.” I walked closer to Rosalie and asked Liam again, “Will you show me your mommy being mad again?” He didn’t take his eyes off of Rosalie, but he did what I asked him, and I still could not understand what he meant. Maybe he was just telling Jule he wasn’t lying about what he had seen. “I think he was just telling you that he was being honest with you. I can’t find any other explanation.” Jule smiled at Liam from across the room, “Don’t worry Liam, Mommy knows you would never lie to her.” Liam was so engrossed in Rosalie, I don’t think he even heard his mother. “Well now that we have that mystery solved, let’s talk about how we want to get through this day. We need to figure out the safest place for the kids, and who will be staying with them.” As soon as I said the last word, Liam’s hand touched Rosalie’s cheek. I instantly saw who would be with them. “Well that answers that question. It seems that the kids will be in Emmett and Jule’s new house with Rosalie and Esme.” Liam looked down at Renesmee, “See my room. ” Renesmee smiled and nodded her head , they truly seemed to enjoy each other’s company.
Rosalie and Esme happily agreed to watch the kids. After a few goodbye kisses they ran with them to the house. We thought it would be a good idea if they left early so Elizabeth and Alexander didn’t catch their scents and start hunting them. We were all in the living room talking about what we had to face today. Jule’s mind was hard to follow. She had numerous scenarios playing through her head, but it was easy to see she was hoping that she and her mother would be together forever after today. “We all know that Alexander wants us gone, so we will have to be cautious, we don’t know what he is capable of. We need to make sure he allows Jule to tell her mom the entire story. Elizabeth deserves to know there is another way to live in this life.” I was listening to everyone’s thoughts, everyone was hoping for the best for our newest family member.
“Carlisle, you will have to try and mediate the situation. Jasper if you could keep everyone as calm as possible that would be perfect. Alice, keep an eye out for any danger. Bella love, if you could just make sure your ready to shield everyone if need be. Emmett and Jule, you will of course do the majority of the talking. I will be listening to see if Alex has anything up his sleeve. I think we have a good chance of coming away with this without a fight.” Everyone happily agreed to play their role. I felt confident that things would run smoothly. I glanced down at my watch, it was 11:49, “OK everyone time to go.” I smiled reassuringly at Jule, and we all walked out of the house and towards the clearing where we would meet. This was going to be a very interesting day.
