Uh oh. Ella told Evan and Eden.

"Bella." I held up my hand. "Let me explain." I begged. I quickly grabbed a evelope off the coffee table. "This is why she was here."

"To drop off our mail?" Bella was furious.

"No. To drop off her wedding invitation." I shook my head and she snatched the invitation out of my hand and opened it.

"Oh." Bella huffed and smiled cruley. "So, you kissed her because you are engaged and because she is getting married..." she looked down at the card. "In two weeks." She laughed without humor. "It makes total sence now." She threw the invite at me.

"Let me explain, please!" I begged.

"You have two minutes and if I don't like your explination, you are packing your bags for the week."

"Okay." I sighed. "She came over to give us this."

"Thank you captin obvious for saving the day. Now you have a minute." She crossed her arms.

I could see the trips out of the corner of my eye. They had recently learned out to sit up, so they were sitting in a line, their heads whipping back and forth between Bella and I like they were watching tennis.

I sucked in a breath and talked as fast as I could. "She came over to drop this off and told me she really wanted us there. I told her thank you, gave her a hug, and a MEANINGLESS quick peck. It ment NOTHING."

She started at me for a moment then opened her mouth to speak. "Show me. Kiss me how you kissed her."

I took a step toward her she held up on hand. "Wait. I don't trust you to be honest right now." She looked over at Evan. "Evan? Since you saw him, will you kiss Mommy's cheek like Daddy kissed Miss Tanya?" She bent down and rested on the balls of her feet.

Evan looked at Ella, who nodded, then crawled over to her, pulled up on her leg, and kissed her cheek quickly before dropping back down on his butt.

She stood up and put her hands on her hips. I shoved my hands in my pockets and looked down at my shoes. If she didn't believe him, I was in deep shit.

"Don't do it again." She used her normal volume but was stern. When I look up she was already climbing the last stair.

All the tripplets let out a breath I didn't know they were holding.

Way to go Dad. Evan scowled at me.

I thought you were going to get in trouble. Eden breathed.

I don't know what to say. Ella's eyebrows here pulled together and she had a pout on her face.

"Ella?" I pleaded.

Ella crawled away, sitting infront of the T.V. watching Nick Jr.

I sighed and looked at Evan. "Evan?"

Nu uh. You did it. Not me. Evan shok his head, hard.

"Eden?"

Ella is going to be mad at you for a long time. Eden looked up at me.

I sighed and fell back on the couch. Never, will I ever, kiss anyone else ever again. Esme is going to be mad she isn't going to get her kiss on the cheek at Christmas.

"You can kiss your mom, Edward." Bella's voice came behind me. I didn't even know she had come down.

I looked behind me and she had Ella on her hip, fixing her a small bowl of the melt in your mouth Puffs for babies.

"Ella?" I asked.

She didn't even look at me.

"She's mad at you." Bella told me, putting a puff in Ella's mouth. "She has her shield on."

Bella came around the corner and sat in the oversized arm chair with Ella on her lap facing her. "She thinks I should be mad at you, too." Bella put another puff in Ella's mouth. "Which I am."

Ella opened her mouth, a signal for another puff.
"I'm going to let you sleep in the bed. Ella thinks I should stick you in her crib and let her sleep with me. It's a very taunting idea, but you would break it and she has to sleep in that crib. So your off the hook."

"Ella? Will you please talk to me?" I begged her.

"No!" She yelled at me. Great. Ella said her first word, no, and yelled it at me.

Bella smiled at her but I couldn't hear what she was thinking to her. This was going to be a long night.

Bella pov

I laid in bed with Edward next to me. I knew he wasn't sleep because he would sigh a couple of times. Edward didn't sigh in his sleep.

"Bella.."

"Don't." I cut him off. "I know. You're sorry. I got that. And I'm sorry I yelled at you, but I'm still upset."

"I know. I don't blame you. But I wasn't going to say sorry again. I was going to ask if you could see if you could get Ella to talk to me again. One of you not talking is enough, but not both my girls. Evan talks to me sometimes. Eden is the only one that hasn't changed."

I turned my head to look at him.

"If you start talking to me again, maybe Evan and Ella will too. Please? And I'm not asking you to talk to me just for them. I miss your voice too, Love."

I closed my eyes and stared back up at the celieng. "You are making it very hard to be mad at you when you say things like that."

She bed shifted and I opened my eyes. Edward was hovering over me, holding himself up with his arms on either side of my head.

I gasped. He looked so sexy like this. His hair was more unruley then usual and his eyes looked like a darker more lustful green. His bicepes bulged and the darkness was casting shadows over his stomach, defining his abs and pecks. He looked amazing.

His mouth crooked up into a half smile/smirk. He closed the distance and kissed me softly. I didn't know I had wanted him this much untill he pressed his body against mine, careful not to squish me.

My hands grabed the back of his shoulders and pulled him closer to me. I ran my hands through his hair and pulled him even closer.

He pulled my shirt over my head and unclasped my bra. "We don't have to." He whispered in my ear.
His warm breath on my neck made me shiver.

"I want to." I told him and pulled his lips back to mine.

"Are you sure?" He whispered against my lips. "Aren't you mad at me?"

"No." I told him. He kissed his way down my neck. I pulled his face to look in his eyes. "I want to." I nearly growled and pulled him back down to my mouth. A growl rose in his throat and he pulled me ontop of him.

Thank God today was Saturday. I didn't have to work today. I felt Bella's body next to mine adn I pulled her closer. She nuzzled her face in my neck and sighed. "I love you." I whispered to her.

"I love you too." She whispered.

Daddy?! Momma?! Ella yelled for us in her head.

We both shot up out of the bed. "Shit." Bella hissed as she glanced at the clock.

It was 8. Meaning the kids had been awake for about an hour anad we slept through their yelling.

I got up to and we pulled on our clothes.

I walked to Ella's door but Bella stopped me. "Let me get her. I will explain to her."

I nodded and went to get Eden.

Bout time! He was sitting in his crib with his little arms crossed. I swear he could be Emmett's kid with his attitude.

"Sorry, Buddy. I was talking with your Mom." I picked him up.

Are you friends again? He asked.

I laughed. "Yeah. We're friends again."

I walked downstairs and set him in his highchair next to Ella and Evan.

"Evan?" I asked.

It's okay. He told me.

I smiled and kissed his head. "Ella?"

She looked up at me and smiled just a little. She had her mom's shy smiled. Don't do it again. She told me.

I smiled and kissed her head.

"I love you guys." I told them.

Love you too. They told me in unison.

"What about me?" Bella's voice came from behind me.

She was wearing my t-shirt and a pair of sleep sorts. Wow.

"I could never, have never, and will never forget about you." I smiled and wrapped my hands around her waist.

"Good." She smiled and kissed me. "French Toast?"

"Depends." I told her. "Is it your French toast?"

"Only." She smiled and walked over to a sizzling pan.

"Then absolutly." I told her and turned to the trips. "Who wants to go see Nana Esme and Grandpa Carlisle today?"

Yeah! Eden smiled.

Me too! Evan agreed.

I do! Ella smiled with her bottom teeth.

"What? You already bought tickets?" Bella asked handing me a plate of French toast.

"Yeah. It's sort of a surprise. To them too." I told her and sat down.

"I think it's a great idea." Bella ran her hand through my hair. I growled.

"Sorry." Bella snatched her hand back laughing. "Forgot it turned you on." She winked and walked back over to the pan.

"Liar." I smiled.

She shrugged and placed her own toast on a plate.
"When do we leave?" she asked sitting down beside me.

I looked over at the stove's clock. "Three hours."

"Well, God. You could have gave me a little extra warning. You better hurry up and eat. You have to help me get the kids packed."

I saluted her. "Yes ma'am." And kissed her.
