Bio:
I am a 55yr+ old Mother/Grandmother and avid reader. My daughter is the one who introduced SM's Twilight to me in 2009. I loved them; couldn't read them fast enough or enough times. I even had them on audible to listen while I worked.. Oh, yeah definitely obsessed. I found Fan Fiction after hearing a interview with Peter Facinelli once a few years back, talking about the Twihard fans and all the stories on the internet. I did some searches and found FanFiction.net and of course Twilighted and then TWC. I must say I have such an addiction now, can't you tell...
E.L. James - Fifty Shades Triology (FanFiction MOTU I & MOTU II) OMG!!! Love "My Fifty" Just saying! Movie coming soon, hopefully!!!!
Sylvain Reynard's Gabriel's Inferno Series (FanFiction UOEM) "Professor Emerson" he just couldn't be more tortured and sexy if he tried. I would love to see this made into a movie as well...
These Two Highly successful Published Author's, were first FF writers! I humbly join the Millions of fans world wide in offering my heartfelt love and good wishes for their continued success as well as love and encouragement to all those Writers/Authors who so unselfishly give of your creative minds with the use of written word. I however am not one of the lucky who have the talent to do so, but love love love reading.
╔══╦══╦══╗ I have been diagnosed
║╔╗║╔═╣╔╗║ with Obsessive Cullen
║╚╝║╚═╣╚╝║ Disorder put this on your
╚══╩══╩══╝ profile if you've caught it to!
I so totally borrowed that from Shannon aka mustlovertp YUP very OCD here
I have many many favorite reads and authors: Just a few shout outs would be
- Robshandmonkey - love ya Drea EEK/Shhhhhh/Taboo/ (Just on TWC)
- SexyLexiCullen - OMG can we say MobWard QS/WS or DoctorWard TSOU/INI
- CaraNo - too flipping many to count :-) (Just on FF)
- Sarges Girls - Deb and Jen OMG can we say check out drtuno for the sexiest Mercenary on the planet
- mustlovertp -- hot hot InkWard a new story posted 6/15/12
- justginger/peoplelikeus -- Such a awesome writer! Poeple Like Us and Hope Springs
- Savage7289 - When Michael Sheen did the reading of Unexpected Circumstances I was enthralled.. what a story ...
- rbsschess - House of Hope and Be My Master Headmaster and Human Sexuality 101 - it's not just the lemons but the humor, depth of story plot all around great reads
- lmlx8 - Diamond in the Rough - does she ever get inside our heads and Bella and Edwards.... Louise really makes one think...
- littlecat358 - Unplanned Perfection and The Demons in My Dreams (Just on FF)
- Jenny0719 - Everything again by her is just enthralling and endearing making you read them over and over (Just on FF)
- JenGreen03 - Everything she does is AWESOME (Just on FF, maybe on Twilighted)
Again just a very small handful of over the top talented writers. Sadly more and more have left the fandom because of various reasons, I just wish to voice I appreciate everyone for their Talents regardless of where they are in the development of their abilities; cultivate that Talent! You are all enormously talented individuals and THIS reader/reviewer definitely appreciates everything you write...
Please please don't be offended if your not on my list above, I love all the stories I read and review... and some I don't .... Yes, I'm also a closet perv ***giggles and chuckles at self***
Oh, I am very much Team Edward and Bella - Love Taylor - not a fan of Jacob and Bella - but fine with those that do, just not my thing.... I love the HEA's just because I didn't have that in my marriage(s) doesn't mean I don't wish that for everyone else.... See I'm charitable.... :-) Laters All!!! Muah! Kathy
FYI: Can't wait for next months release of Cosmopolis!
SWATH was wonderful! Canne was such a treat if your a Robsten fan as I am... Kristen rawked the Red Carpet in that Red Dress, Geez I couldn't believe it....Rob is alway killer in a Tux...OMG!!! Heartfail! LOL!
Bella and Edward have a history - one which Bella wishes she could forget. Edward re-enters her life but is not the boy she once knew. Will Bella be able to keep their relationship strictly professional? Does Edward want it to stay professional? What are they hiding from each other?

After years away, Bella is returning to a place she thought she'd left behind and a man she thought never wanted to see her again. Love often comes when you least expect it. There are lies that need to be confessed and secrets to reveal.

Well of course IRINA is causing problems! At least he knew the second he saw his son that Riley was his.. Awh she gave him the middle name of Masen!
Author's Response:
Irina definitely has some issues. Thanks for reading and reviewing. :)
Date: 04 Apr 2011 Title: Chapter 15: Chapter 14
Holy Moses! Well Irina was just a little pawn to both Jacob and Chelsea wasn't she!!! you cant help but feel compassion for the girl! You know I wanted to call her a schrew but stopped short because you clearly show that she was being used by both J & C, not those two deserve each other....
When you think about it wasn't it precious and sweet that Edward went out of his way to ensure that Bella's college was paid for.. Kind of reminds me of the Fan Fic University of Edward Masen - by Sebastien Robichaund (which is no longer available) anyway in that FF to ensure that Bella was able to have extra money he saw that she was awarded a Brasier (I think that I spelled that right) Anyway! Way to go in having Edward look out for his Bella and in showing all of us loyal OCC lovers of E & B; showing that even Tanya saw a connection between them 8 years previously shows that he loved and still loves Bella and that it's a true love. You are doing a wonderful job, it's just hard getting through those first chapters and see our Edward with somone other than Bella... I know I have read sometimes where reviewers write rude and hateful comments about the stories if they don't like how the characters have been written....I am NOT that kind of a reviewer... I have a choice to read a story or not, You and all the other authors really pour your hearts into these stories and I am appreciative to have this avenue to read them... Your doing a wonderful job.. Be encouraged and proud of your abilities and skill!!!
Author's Response:
Thanks for your lovely review. I know a lot of people are wary of Bella or Edward with other characters, but it was just where they were in their lives. E&B have always had a connection, and it's now their time.
Thanks for reading and thank you again for the lovely review.
Date: 04 Apr 2011 Title: Chapter 16: Chapter 15
Awh! for a chapter that was a pain in the back side, deary you did a superb job! Really enjoyed it. Good job!
I was pretty chatty in my review last chapter so this chapter I will ease up and just say again, I am really enjoying the story!
Author's Response:
Be chatty all you want- thanks for the lovely reviews.
Date: 04 Apr 2011 Title: Chapter 17: Chapter 16
Well that was funny!!! "me, the baby daddy" l really love that slang, sad that it has to be that way, but it's still a cute slang.
I had been wondering what Bella put on the birth certificate and what Riley's last name was, so with him having the Swan last name I can see that was Bella's way of making sure to EXCLUDE Jacob from being a true father, regardless of the fact she was scared and did not want to be alone... she never had intentions of remaining married to Jacob longer than necessary! Thanks for covering that for me, without my even having to ask about the birth certificate... Your rock, but I'm also sure that your wonderful Beta's and other reviewers bring those wonderful points out too!!!!
Have a good one, hope to get at least one more chapter in this afternoon, and then will finish off after work today... You rock!

We'll be getting into the birth certificate a little later, but yes, Bella didnt list Jake as the father. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Damn this is getting good, see hanging in and perservering do pay off when reading stories... I do have faith in you and thanks again for writing such a good FF. I forgot to mention earlier that I really enjoyed the scene in the nursery with Rini and Ry.. that was really sweet and special and loved the talk Charlie had with Edward...
Author's Response:
I'm glad you're enjoying it. Irina was manipulated terribly, and it messed her up, but she's got a heart of gold buried under her anger and she loves her little brother.
Thanks for reading and leaving the lovely reviews.
Date: 04 Apr 2011 Title: Chapter 19: Chapter 18
awh! Well Alice took that pretty good... Loved the **Flashbacks** I think that they give a much clearer picture
Author's Response:
Thanks for reading and for leaving all your great reviews.
Date: 04 Apr 2011 Title: Chapter 20: Chapter 19
Well Hot Damn that was good!!! Yes, Chels could have gotten worse but she did get told.. Edward being Christened by Riley was pretty cute! I was just surprised it didn't happen sooner, but the comic relief at that point was wonderful.
I love how they are coming quickly to the realization that they can't get enough of each other.... ***really slow there*** ***evil snickers***
Author's Response:
yeah they threw that concept out the window. hehe
the 'christening' incident happened with my son Ryley, when he was 6 months old. My husband had changed his diapers from the start but one day of not paying attention and Ry got him.
Thanks for your review.
Date: 04 Apr 2011 Title: Chapter 21: Chapter 20
Well that is working out just perfectly, really happy with what they are deciding to do, or shall we say what Bella finally came to the realization of! Her talking with the girls was wonderful in my opinion. of course that is just my opinion!
You rock and look forward to the remainder of the chapters and what you have in store for this wonderful lovely family!
Oh, I also hope that we get to see what happens with the girls at the dance and what DaddyWard thinks of the attire!
So next up is the BBQ and Jake coming to town, hummmm can't wait!
I am offically all caught up now. Hey and thanks so much for all of your responses that is really nice of you. Laters BB Kathy xoxoxoxo
Author's Response:
Yay you're all caught up. I was planning to take a week off to go back and fix the mistakes in spelling and what autocorrect messed up, but I'm almost finished going over the chapters so there should be a new chapter up by Friday or Saturday and it will be the BBQ.
Thanks for all the great reviews, you brightened my day.
Date: 11 Apr 2011 Title: Chapter 22: Chapter 21
~Susan~**A Big High Five** OMGoodness this chapter was fantastic! Loved the confrontation with Mike and how Bella handled it, then for Edward to just happen in on it too! Well that was per-fec-to!!!!! The discussion with Mrs. Webber was really nice as well! I really liked that! The family counceling session with Maggie was even good. I like how Bella and Mrs Cope discussed a routine and schedule in the house, and even how showing that Bella can still feel insecure where Riley is concerned might be "silly" as she calls it, but blending with his new surroundings is a good thing, yet at the same time for Bella to understand that she is still so very vital to her little boy is very important for her to know-You did a great job in having Edward explain that to her... Kudos~ good job~~~
Edward dealing with teenage daughters and how he would like to take "intemidation" lessons from Chief Swan was pretty cute in my opinion, loved that. Loved how the date went and the openess that the girls shared with their dad and Bella too the next morning...
Which brings us to the BBQ portion - Awwwwhhhh the way he announced Bella's return to them was so endearing and then of course the Awh Factor went up 100 fold when he announced there son...along with his name...
Okay seriously I was sort of expecting Jake to show up, but hate the ending... but I do love your wicked mind in leaving us hanging like that.... Your so wonderfully evil... I think I can now call you a "little vixen cliffee author" hehehehe!!!! Seriously that is a cute compliment from me.... Have a good week and will honestly look forward to your next chapter, next week I presume!!!! and hope!!!
Laters BB Kathy xoxoxoxoxo
Author's Response:
Thank you thank you thank you for your lovely review. Glad you enjoyed it all. Jake was bound to show up, though he's a week early. It's time to deal with him, though it will not be as quick as it was with Chelsea. I hope to have the chapter up by next Monday, but I will have to see how I cope doped up on more pain meds after more oral surgery tomorrow.
If chapter isnt up Monday, look for teasers on the fictionators blog.
Til next week~

Thanks for the review.

well nope that wasnt nearly as bad as i thought it would be with Jake great chapter now our lovebirds can get on with their happy little family
Author's Response:
I tried to do the explosive chapter but it didnt really ring true for Bella. Everything was said that needed to be said, but there will still be somethings to go over in the next chapter.
Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Damn that was one hell of a chapter that's for sure!!! Action packed, boy howdy was I fearful for a minute that Edward was going to be so far gone in his Rage that he was not hearing Bella. I can see that perhaps Carlilse might really not recall what went down @ Twilight, I mean really think about it.. He has been banged in the head pretty severly I might add twice recently and well it's just possible that he might not have full recollection of the events. BUT on the other hand he must recall something otherwise why is he continually trying to reach Edward and very upset over the fact that Edward is not speaking to him... Just thinking... Well anway Until Wednesday Please have a wonderful few days and take care... TTFN Laters BB Kathy xoxoxo

Lexi- I didn't know you were on TWC too! well have have you saved to Favorites over here!!! You know how I love my QS and INI so I will just have to go back and re-review all the chapters so you can have more reviews on this sight too!!! Totally ticks me off that this happened on FF, I have seen more and more of the writers having issues and going to this medium or Twilighters. So sorry!
Now, this chatper rocked, the "Old West" show and Edward throwing Bella to the ground, still has me chuckeling., that is just too damn funny Well the whole time at Disney was pretty funny. I felt bad for them that first off Edward was not 100% proof being that he fell asleep on her several times, and then she calls all the family to wish them a Happy New Year, because she was awake and alone - sorta- oh and then Victoria thanks her for the TREES (i'm finding it hard to hate Victoria right now) I'm not sure if I should feel compassion for her after all but I am finding tht I am..
Carlilse and Esme still crack me up! When is Carli going to learn don't fucking touch DRINK or EATS of a pregnant WOMAN!!!! Holy Hell Man when will you learn!!!!
Love that they finally worked through the tension... I found it wonderful that even though she was having a panic attach and felt that she needed to be farther away from the Mafia Prince she really only needed him closer (as we saw). The Pirate Show was pretty funny!
Hang in there and ready for more when your ready to post... Love your writing Lexi

~Squeeeeee Lexi~ Damn HOT! Edward! Yeah I know I'm sick, thinking about all the things that he is going to do to make her..ahemmm..umm..cum... and cum...and cum some more! Holy Hell!
You are right lots and lots did go on in this chapter! It was all good, thanks for not letting Rose go crazy with having a horrific and painful delivery, not all deliveries are painfully awful for all women... Just thanks!!! Alice can be a bit selfish if you ask me and she thinks that she is a little more know it all too! I can see how that relationship is going to need to be dealt with eventually, even though Jasper is Edwards cousin and Ed Sr is Jasper's Uncle, Jazz does get by with quite a bit of stuff like Edward pointed out, so he will need to deal with that eventually "perhaps" Then you have the way Emmett feels about Bella and Edward's marriage well I can understand where Emmett is coming from, I just don't appreciate him looking down his nose at My Sexy as hell, Passionate for Bella, Possessive, Oh so giving and loving to his wife Bella, Mafioso Edward...But I do know that he loves his sister and fears for her. So I can cut him some slack. Bella has a busy life, she can't just run to Middletown all the time, and that's part of the issue - all her family has been used to Bella not having a life and now that she has one they can't seem to understand it something that SHE is happy with... (Damn Lexi your a great writer! but then you know this right *evil smirk*)
Okay, so what should Edward do with or about Jane? Hum.... I think he needs to ship her off to a Mexican Bordello and get her hooked on drugs and sell her for $10 a pop!! No!!! I'm just kidding! She's not worth being even a $10 whore!!! Wicked bitch, seriously this all stemed from the fact she wanted Carlilse - by the way, did I miss something but where did her nickname of TMcGee come from? I'm seriously not sure what Edward should do about Jane, you can't just let it go, I don''t like killing women, but at the same time if she were to live I could see this wicked Bitch seducing some dumb smuck into trying to do more of her bumb bidding and possibly hurt more people... Curious to see what else others come up with. I will try and find you on twitter... Love your work.. Laters BB Kathy xoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Date: 26 May 2011 Title: Chapter 32: Every Dog Has Its Day
SQUEEEEE!!!! YES, YES, YES!!! They are going to have a BABY!!!!! YES,YES, YES!!! Just saying! That rocks!
Okay now lets back up to the very beginning of the chapter The "Iron" Joke -> no that sucked rocks.. The "Goblin" joke that was rather cute!
Edward's reaction to the interragation was just what I hoped for and expected from our Master MobWard. See I was wondering about Gail and Heidi and I am pretty sure that I said something about that in my review of the chapter involving those two over on FF - I hope they find that Witch Heidi and make her pay for that too! I honestly do not think it was anyone in the Organization that did that to Gail - Like Edward said that's not their style; who's to say that it wasn't that FBI agent. They seemed to feel it was a crime of passion.... Just don't think that it was Carlilse....
Now they are pregnant that is just so awesome, so happy for our Couple they so deserve to have some happiness, they are so in love and think of all the love they will share with a little one. Having your own child helps you to appreciate your parents, whether that's with clear eyes seeing that they too are human and are subject to errors and mistakes or just appreciating that "You" have good parents and want to be the best Parent that you personally can be... This is wonderful. Oh doesn't this just kinda make you shiver when you think about Edward Sr and Alexandra are preggers too! It happens, what can you say?!
Love the way your mind works and let Edward vocalize in his mind all of the legal junk while he was being Questioned (Interrogated). Can't till next week and Yes, sir're I will be checking out The Southern Fan Fiction Blog site for the Tuesday Outtake of "Whorelilse" and Gail. Okay TTFN see you next week, be careful and have a good one. Kathy xoxoxoxo
Date: 14 Jul 2011 Title: Chapter 39: Oobotz
Bella is trying so hard not to be whinny because lets be honest, she knows that she gets that way, even more so due to pregnancy hormones... But... she does miss him and ever since the Dr's appt where he talked to her about her weight BELLA has seemed even more insecure.. Edward tries to show her how much he desires her, but she feels lonesome.. Jacob is just a boy, EDWARD is a MAN that can only satisfy her and that's another reason for the horrific Night Terrors she has been having... HER Fear of loss... reinstilling in her all the terrible things her father made her feel about herself for so long.
Loved how we got a look into Edwards mind and all the ramifications of taking out Marcus and where the responsibility was placed and HOW it was placed. It was way too complicated for my simple mind, I fear *giggles, and snickers*
Love how Carlilse is once again backing is his little Sis Bella up with Edward reassuring him that she would never ever cheat on him.. Can't wait for Chapter 40, I know I know I'm greedy what can I say... you created this wonderful addictive story ... so I can't take all the responsibility here... :-) Hey take care; hate moving by the way...good luck with that, and will see you on Twitter. These Banners are kick ass wonderful RoseArcaida.... Oh, and yes, Edward is OCD in the same manner Bella is about her love for him.... Bella just doesn't show it in the same way... hence the reminder of Women are from Venus and Men are from Mars or whatever that books name was... Okay Later Kathy xoxoxoxoxo

Hey lovely one! Great chapter, perfect as a matter of fact... loved the stuff with the coupons! that was pretty damn funny honestly..Just thinking about it. Big Mob Boss making construction paper FORGED Blow Job coupons to give to his wife... LMAO! Then on top of that both his Lead Cappo and Brother are made to be accomplisses.. great shit. That's why I love your writing so much, its not just the serious stuff and all the wonderful SEXING that goes on, but your wonderful humor.
I thought I was going to fall out of my chair laughing over Edward wanting to run back into the Dr's office wanting to put a beatdown on Doc doing a rectal exam on his wife. LOL! Come on Edward that's normal... he wasn't trying to be a pervert LOLOLOL!!! But yes, we love to get our wonderful Mobward and how he feels about his lady love...
Pretty cute both E&B and A&L are having boys and C&E have a little girl, yep I can so see Aro's little boy and Esme's princess hitting that shit when they become teens...
I think we all saw what was going to HAVE to happen with Dizz, sad as it was though but in all fairness to Caius, Edward did give Dizz the chance to come clean with him about Nicole, Dizz didn't. I did think it was nice and pretty compassionate of Edward when he leaned down and thanked Jake for all that he did for Bella and taking care of her - see Bella does rub off on Edward in a compassionate sort of way....
Nuff said... Ready Freddy for the final chapters!!!! OnWard!!!! and UPWARD!!!! to the Sequel... Have to go VOTE and read INI EPI - Chapter 48....

wow what a enthralling chapter, I really thought it was either Tanya or Renee as Edward's date. But with it being Tanya it makes more sense considering Aro and his antics with being obsessed with Bella apparently... The IMing all around the table was pretty hilarious honestly and the color of that Dress Tanya had on OMG... I have to agree why did she even bother wearing clothes at all... LOL!
I just love Edward from the way he got in the mix of the IMing during dinner service and his handling of Bella and the DISGUSTING naked Tanya in his room to the way he dealt with Chelsea by putting Bella in front of him as a Shield!!! (Pretty Cute) Then he goes on to get a triple with the way he handled Aro after bringing up his previous daliancy with Tanya... to then Hitting a Home Run by knocking it out of the Ball Park with is HEART STOPPING ROMANTIC, marriage proposal.... Hav' Mercy Please not long before the next chapter..... You rock!!!!!

Great chapter! Mercy who on earth wouldn't love some Chef Cullen as an attentive BF, the spa treatment he had set up for Bella after the gym was so sweet! Then he fixes her lunch too! He is just incredible! I'm still not so sure about those dreams of Ali Cats ~ at times I think it's James and Victoria that are up to no good, but then again I think it's the wacky Mother Renee... I'm just not positive but I am glad that she has decided that she needs to be more on guard so to speak; but if it's her mother than she wil not be on the look out for something from her....hum I guess I will just have to wait and see what happens....
Love the story!!!!

Welcome to the Academy! Bella Swan, former American Ballet Academy Prima Ballarina and Ballroom dancer, finds herself employed with her friend Alice Cullen at Alice's families dance academy. As a Seattle institution the Volterra Academy of Dance received national acclaim when the dance prodigy signed on, but is that the only purpose when the Cullens hired Ms. Swan or did they have hopes that she could teach more than just the students something? Edward hasn't placed competitively since his partner left him high and dry three years ago. That was when he came to teach ballroom at his family's school. He's convinced he's happy, spreading the love for dance through the younger generation, but that all changed when he spied a brown haired stranger. He saw the way she moved at the club and now he can't get her out of his head. He tells himself that it's best that he doesn't know who she is. He doesn't want another woman in his life to complicate things. It would be best just to forget her, so why can't he. What will happen when he finds out that the girl he can't forget is the new ballet instructor at the Academy? More importantly can they ignore the chemistry that they have from the beginning? Will Bella shake Edward out of his shell and will he find the strength to get out and dance again? Can she teach him to leave it all on the floor? Find out

Okay I will admit it, I honestly thought they were ACTUALLY making up some special time alone... Had no clue that it was a dream, poor Edward!!! Yes I do know he caused this and needs to be patient... rebuilding trust in a marriage can be a daunting task and he is right thought they to need to reconnect, which can be on several levels.
Great story!

Holy Heck! Mother of 3 with ages ranging from 7 and under, you my dear do have a full plate. I do love this story though I must add, I had a hard time with the first few chapters and Edwards infidelity; BUT, with that being said, you are dealing with this in great way, I do appreciate you showing that marital vows say for better or worse and most of the time people forget that those vows don't say, "or until it gets to hard" sometimes learning to forgive (notice I did not say forget) is the greatest of all in loving someone, a truly repentant heart is worthy of forgiveness~
Great story! On to the next chapter

Kathy
Author's Response:
I assure that Bella may be being a bit stubborn now, but she will get the help that she needs! Thanks for reading and reviewing! *tissue warning* lol! Krazi xoxo Here´s a little sneak peek at the next chapter: “Hey there, buddy,” I cooed softly while I swayed Parker back-and-forth in my arms. “Daddy sure did miss you. Did you miss me too, P?” I asked, sitting down in the glider that was in the corner of his hospital room. I´d stripped, and took a quick shower in the on-call room, donning a pair of dark blue scrubs and a yellow disposable hospital gown before I entered Parker´s room. You could never be too careful, and I didn´t want to expose my little guy to any unnecessary germs that could possibly prolong his stay. I knew that Bella was anxious to our little guy home, but for me, Parker´s release would be bittersweet. Parker going home meant that I wouldn´t be able to see him everyday. I hadn´t realized that I was crying until a tear splashed against his little blue cap-covered head separating into what seemed like a thousand individual molecules. Feeling the need to explain to my son why I wouldn´t continue to see him every day, I slipped my finger in his tiny hand, relishing the way his little fingers wrapped around my large one, and started to speak. “Well, P,” I paused, fighting with the lump that was clogging my throat. “You´re getting so big, daddy´s so proud of you, sweet boy, proud that after everything he did to your mommy that you´re healthy, growing big and strong, and soon you´ll get to go home.” I bit the inside of my cheek, trying in vain to hold back my sob. Unsuccessful in attempt, “I´m so sorry, son” fell from my lips in a broken cry. “It´s all my fault that you´re in here; I will never be able make it up to you, but by God, I plan to die trying.” Parker´s eyes fluttered open, staring up at me as if he was offering me a tiny piece of absolution. Though some may not agree, and argue that it was gas, I´ll swear to my dying day that he looked up at me and smiled. Beaming up at me with rose-colored cheeks, and a twinkle in his eye, in me, my son saw no wrong. I was his hero! Just the mere thought of that made my heart pump wildly in my chest. Not that it was even remotely possible, but in that moment, my love for this tiny innocent creature in my arms seemed to quadruple in its intensity. Clutching his delicate little body to mine, I held him as tight to me as could without causing him harm. All too soon, my phone was vibrating. Without even looking at the screen, I knew that our time was up for today. Once Bella returned, she and Mac would be here for the rest of the night. Bella was such a good mother, making time for both of our children. Even though it was against hospital policy, she insisted that Mac be allowed spend the night in her brother´s room; having me for a father and Carlisle Cullen as your grandfather came with many perks that we had no problem using. Parker´s suite was state of the art, and if not for the obvious knowledge that this was a hospital, you would think that you were staying in a suite at the Fairmont Olympic Hotel. Being a children´s hospital, we had several rooms that were setup for long-term care, making families feel like they were at a home-away-from-home when their child was hospitalized long-term for chronic illnesses. Bella and Mac were able to sleep in a comfortable queen-sized bed and the room even had a small kitchenette complete with a microwave and nice-sized refrigerator. That way, Bella had plenty of liquids at her disposal to keep her hydrated for breastfeeding, and Mac could have juice and snacks to tide her over during the day. Like I said, it was the perfect set-up! Reluctantly, I stood to my feet, trying not to jostle the sleeping infant in my arms. Taking care with his wires and IV, I placed a lingering kiss atop Parker´s head and gently laid back in his bassinette. The door opened, and I didn´t even have to turn around to know who it was. I knew that when I didn’t immediately respond to my mother´s text, she would send my father looking for me. A strong hand gripped my shoulder, giving it a light squeeze. “I´m sorry son, but it´s time,” he whispered solemnly. Even though he didn´t agree with my actions, he was still my father. And when I hurt, simply put, he hurt too! Leaning down one last time, I brushed my lips against his cheek. “I love you son, be a good boy for mommy and sissy tonight. I´ll see you soon,” I promised, praying that it was one I could keep. “I hope...” Unable to stomach the look of pity that was sure to be in my father´s eyes, I turned and walked out of the room without so much as sparing him a backward glance.
