*My sister sure did love to throw a party. You getting married...throw a party, you finished school...throw a party, you punched a wolf....throw a party! Tonight she was sending Em and I off in true Alice style. The whole family and gathered at the Cullen house because tomorrow Em and I were headed back to Isle Esme to check on the Cullen Clinic. It had been almost 2 months since the grand opening and from what Zoe reports, things are going great. I entered the living room and walked over to Emmett, who was in the middle of making a bet with my sister-n-law, the newest vampire of the family. Walking up to them, I link my arm into my husband's. "Bella dear, what is it that my husband is trying to get you two in the middle of? Tree climbing? Oh no, let me guess, another arm wrestling contest?" I smiled at the two of them*

*Emmett was in the middle of one of his favorite pastimes, teasing Bella, when he heard the most beautiful voice in this world. He gave her a sideways glance and nodded as she linked her arm in to his. He turned back to look at Bella.*
So what do you say? Since you aren't so tough anymore now that you're not such a newborn?
*He was betting her anything-a race, another arm wrestling match, a hunt. Whatever he knew he could out do her on, because honestly-in five years he still hadn't gotten over the fact that she won, and still thought she cheated. Alice was throwing them a party as they were set to leave so Rosalie could check on her clinic. He was so proud of his wife, and all she'd accomplished. And by God, she looked hot in a doctor's coat.*

Bella stood there, her arms across her chest as Emmett did his best at teasing her. She laughed and shook her head. "Never gonna give up, huh Emmett?" She said with a smile. He was still sore after five years...what a man. She figured it had been five years why not.
"You're on." Renesmee giggled as she and Jacob listened in. Edward wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered in her ear "Give it to him, love." She nodded and narrowed her eyes. "So, what's the new bet hm? This time you pick." Rosalie stood next to him and smiled at how playful they were being. She was sad to see them go but knew they wouldn't be gone too long. It had been 2 months since they were there. In that two months they'd given Renesmee a wonderful birthday party, Alice threw a Halloween Party and made a haunted house that would frighten Frankenstein himself and things were overall great. Not even a peep from the Volturi, but most of the time that was too good to be true.
"So name your bet, and when."

*walking into the room, she stopped and listened to their conversation, smiling to herself. Emmett so loved teasing Bella, and Bella gave back as good as she got. She leaned against the door, folding her arms across her waist, as she watched. Shaking her head at Bella telling Emmett to name the bet, thinking that probably wasn't the best idea where Emmett was concerned. She looked to Rosalie, the smile on her face as she looked at Emmett, lighting up her face. She knew what it felt like to be that in love with someone, and she was really going to miss them, even though it was a short trip*
Yes Emmett, what will you bet Bella? This should be very interesting....
*looking up as her love walked into the room, a smile on her face, moving to stand beside him*
Hello my love....

*Walking into the room happily having everyone under the same roof again even if it's such a short amount of time. Listening to Emmett and Bella bicker and wager on who's the strongest again. Nothing ever changes with those two. Shaking my head flashing a wry smile walking over to where Esme is standing. Her face lights up that secret smile she only uses with me and her melodic voice greeting me, wishing the party was over and we could go upstairs for some alone time. Dragging my gaze from her to the others greeting them,*
Hello my heart, soul and universe. *taking her hand in mine* It seems so long since we have all assembled together, just a couple of months, seems so much longer. Emmett be nice to your sister in law, you might need her sometime soon. Bella, Edward, my Pooh Bear, oops Renesmee. Bad habit I know dearling. Come let's sit down.

*We followed the head of the Cullen family over to the sitting area. I was prepared to take a seat beside Em when he pulled me into his lap. This prompted the other Cullen boys to whoop and cat-call. Rolling my eyes playfully "You guys are so childish" I laughed as I toss a pillow over toward Jasper, just missing him and hitting Edward. "Bella, I see things are getting very serious between Jacob and Nessa. How are you two handling that?" I had missed out on a lot of the new developments between the two since I started med school, since Emmett and I were gone for most of the five years since she was born. It was so hard to wrap your mind around how fast Nessie grew. She should just be the size of a child just starting Kindergarten but instead, she was the size of a 17 year old and from the looks of things, experiencing all the teenage hormones. I looked from Ness and Jacob, back to Bella. How was Edward and her dealing with such things when they were in all actuality, new parents. I sighed, if the truth be known, I would kill for a chance to be dealing with those same issues, with my own child. Forcing a smile, I teased my brother "Have you guys had the "talk" with her yet?" I made air quotation marks around the word talk*

*He thought about it for a bit, wanting to make sure he gave her a good one, since of course he'd win. Tapping his chin deep in thought as he turned to see Esme and Carlisle enter, watching the fun.*
"You know, let me think real hard on that one. Since it has to be good."
*Turning to see everyone gathering in the sitting room, he plopped himself on the couch as Rosalie walked towards him. Before she could sit next to him, he pulled her down to sit on his lap and wrapped his arms around her waist. His brothers teased him as Rosalie rolled her eyes and threw a pillow. He let out a loud laugh when it hit Edward instead of Jasper. As Rosalie began to ask about how they were dealing with wolf boy and Renesmee his brows shot up.*
"Woah-ho-ho-ho....you mean MY little niece is...kissing dog boy?" *He gave Renesmee and Jacob a wink showing he was playing. Renesmee turned five shades of red which reminded him so much of his mother, and how she used to blush profusely. Turning to his brother and Bella.*
"Yes, How ARE you two dealing...." *He laughed when Rosalie used air quotes for the talk.*

She glared at him and shook her head. "Avoiding me I see. It's okay Emmett...you can just admit you're afraid." He let out a laugh as Esme and Carlisle entered. She pointed to Emmett playfully. "Can you believe him?" She scoffed as they all made their way to the living room and took seats. Rosalie began to talk to her as she thought about how to answer her. Emmett chiming in and teasing Renesmee as her cheeks reddened. Jacob suggested they go outside and get some air. They moved quickly out the door as Bella smiled. "Well, Rosalie. We had the talk with them a few months ago, right before her party. Things seem...good. They are good. We trust them. I won't lie, it was very awkward." Alice laughed and nodded in agreement, knowing the outcome of that. Plus everything that had happened while Renesmee was left in she and Jasper's care. She took the pillow that hit Edward and threw it at Emmett as he started again. "Don't you have a filter?" She said with a laugh.

*moving into the living room, taking her seat next to Carlisle as the "children" bickered and bantered back and forth. Shaking her head, she laughed and took Carlisles hand in hers*
Well Bella, you talked to her about what a relationship entails, she is a smart young woman, and Jake, well he seems to be responsible. I don't think you have anything to worry about where those two are concerned, at least not at the moment
*looking up at her husband, then back to the others*

*Listening to the conversation flowing around me about my Pooh Bear and Jacob. They are level headed young adults knowing more than most do at this age, I have no fears of anything arising. The ribbing about is just that, everyone knows things will be fine. Things are moving along quietly which always makes me wonder when is the other shoe going to drop.*
Renesmee and Jacob are levelheaded young adults they will be responsible. If things progress a bit quicker I will set them down and have a sobering talk hammering home "what can happen and will go wrong." Edward and I had this talk and I still think he has nightmares about it. *Looking at my wife winking and Renesmee with a look that would wither flowers.*

*I watched as Nessa and Jacob headed outside, tripping over one another because they were moving so fast. I remember back when I first fell in love with Em. There is nothing like true love unless it is of course, first love. I turned back towards the rest of the family. Outside of the medical field, everything and everyone that I loved, was right here in this home. I never thought I could be this happy when I was first turned. I thought my "life" was over but then I met Emmett and he was my saving grace. As the rest of the family chatted on about this and that, I couldn't help but watch how Edward and Bella's eyes lit up when they spoke about their daughter. I know how that child made my own dead heart fill full of joy, I could only imagine how it must feel to be her parents. I try, I really do, to be happy and content with the life that I have. With Emmett, my family and now my medical practice but there was still a hole deep inside that will never be filled. I would never be truly happy due to me being unable to have a child. I sat back and watched my family talk and joke with one another as thoughts of my own unfilled dreams weighed heavy on my shoulders*

*Taking a glance at his watch as he cleared his throat interrupting the chitter chatter from his family as he looked up at Rosalie who was deep in thought.*
Our flight leaves in two hours. Seattle traffic...we may miss it if we don't hit the road now, beautiful.
*As she stood from his lap, he followed suit and mock stretched knowing he didn't need to. He watched as the rest of the family stood to say their good-byes. They wouldn't be gone long, but they were always missed. He was the life of the party so he assumed while he was gone it was boring for the rest of them.*

Emmett mentioned their flight as everyone stood and began to say their goodbyes. Bella extended her arms as she hugged Rosalie and closed her eyes, embracing her sister. They'd become close since she became pregnant with Renesmee, and it never changed. Alice and Jasper hugged them next as they then went to Carlisle and Esme. Emmett picked Bella up and spun her around in a hug, then set her back down. "I'll be waiting for that re-match Emmett Cullen." She said as she playfully hit his arm and he acted as if it hurt....or did it?

*standing with Carlisle, she watched as Emmett and Rosalie hugged Jasper, Alice, Edward and Bella, then moved in front of them. Opening her arms, she hugged Rosalie tight*
You two have a safe trip, tell everyone that we said hello, and we will come visit again very soon. Take care of yourselves and if you need anything, do not hesitate to call ok?
*taking Rosalie's face in her hands, she leaned over and kissed her on her forehead. Then turned to hug Emmett, holding them both in a tight embrace*
We love you both very much, and can't wait for your return.
*looking to Carlisle, as they both moved towards him*

*Takes Rosalie into his arms holding her placing a kiss on her hair, letting her go giving her a watery smile, pulling Emmett into a quick hug patting his back then shaking his hand,*
When you land please call your Mother or she will worry. If you need anything call we will drop everything and head there. Come back for the holidays.
*Watching them walk out the door, waving wrapping a comforting arm around Esme, kissing her temple.*
