Edward had just returned from another trip to maintain the rules of the vampire race. He knew that this was going to be part of the job when they decided to become the royal family, but lately things was getting worse. It seemed like he was always away from his family. He hated being away from Bella, but with Nessie due any day now he would not risk them both being gone from home. As he entered their cottage he went straight to their room and changed clothes. He got out of his traveling clothes and back into his normal wear. He wanted to feel like a normal Cullen again and not a leader.
He looked around the room and wished that he wife was there. He always missed her when they were apart. He knew that they needed to figure out how to get things to settle down and get the family back to normal. They had all been away from each other way to long. He knew that the entire family was feeling the strain of late. He sat down at his desk and started looking over the paper work that was on his desk. He had a ton of things to catch up on. As he looked through the paper's he found a post card from Reah and smiled. He missed his old friend and was happy to see that she would be returning to Forks soon. He knew that she loved her home in New Orleans but she had also become attached to the Cullen family and she spent as much time in Forks now as she did in New Orleans.
Edward sat the card down and wondered where Bella was. He could call her but he decided to just wait for her to come home and he would surprise her. He knew that she was not expected him back for another two days.

Bella pulled the car into the driveway and narrowed her eyebrows at the scent she caught and got out from her car quickly. Edward wasn't supposed to be home for another two days; not that it necessarily bothered her that he was home early. Just that it slightly made her worried that something had happened. Then again, him showing up early was always better then him not showing up at all. She looked in the back seat at all of the things that she had bought for Nessie since she was due any day now and resided that it could all be brought in later. Instead she came into the house quickly and followed Edwards scent straight to his desk and wrapped her arms around his neck and chest from behind and leaned down to kiss his cheek.
So much was happening with their lives that she wondered if they would ever get back into a normal routine. Even when Edward was home she always felt like his mind was racing with other things; she didn't need Jasper's power to feel the worry that he had about their family and whether or not all of the pieces would fit back into the puzzle to make them complete again. She wished he wouldn't let things worry him so much; especially since it seemed to take such a toll on him, but she also didn't talk about it. Letting him know that she was worried about him just would have added to the toll. All she wanted Edward to know that she was feeling was excitement that Jasper seemed to be a part of their lives again and the joy from Nessie and their growing family.
Bella took a small moment to take in his scent before kissing from the side of his neck up to the edge of his ear and gently biting against it. " You're home early?" She moved her arms from around his neck and dropped her hands to his chest. She missed so much of him when he was gone. His wit and humor, the way he handled things with a calm manner and delegated within the family. But she also missed the way his arms seemed to fit perfectly around her and how each of their movements seemed to pair with one another. Having him home would thrill Nessie; but it didn't mean that she was in any hurry to tell her at the moment. If there was a moment she could steal away with her husband she was going to do it without question.

Edward heard the door to the cottage open and knew that Bella was home. He stayed in his chair till she came into the room and wrapped her arms around him. He smiled as he felt her around him. He loved the way that she smelt. When she spoke his just smiled. "I finished early." He said as she kissed him. He pulled her around into his lap and kissed her more deeply. He had missed her and wanted her in his arms. "I missed you to much." He said as his broke their kiss. He wanted more but they needed time to talk first.
Edward pulled Bella close and wrapped his arms around her. "I finished as fast as I could so that I could come back home. I have a bad feeling about our family. I feel like everything is falling apart since our return from London. Things just are not the same with our family. We have to figure out some way to pull our family back together again. That includes our daughter, who has managed to seperate herself from the family since she got married to Jake. I am just not sure how to fix this or if it can be fixed." He said as he looked down at his beautiful wife. He knew that she was worried about him and he did not want her to worry, but they had to fix their family some how.

Bella took in a quick breath as Edward pulled her quickly from behind him to into his lap and kissed her. Even now he had every capability of taking her breath away thought it was useless anyways. She held her hands tightly against the back of his neck as he kissed her and wished that the moment could have lasted longer as he pulled away and said that he had missed her. “ Then I’m glad you finished early, because I desperately missed you too,” she admitted as she wrapped her arms around his neck lazily and held them there. She played with the back of his hair mindlessly as her mind raced through everything that they needed to talk about.
Biting against the inside of her cheek, she listened as he spoke and knew that everything he was saying was true. She had worried about Nessie ever since she was married to Jacob but assumed that it was just a phase that would pass. But so far it hadn’t. and something had to be done. “ Well do you have any ideas? Aside from just letting everyone know that we’re concerned? You can’t take ‘fixing’ this family and put it on your shoulders alone,”. She dropped her arms from around his neck and placed them on his chest before she moved the way she was sitting in his lap and laid her side against his chest.

Edward listened as Bella talked and knew that she was right. He was not trying to take the family issue's on alone. He shifted as she moved in his lap and smiled. He knew that if she did not sit still then they would not be getting much more talking gone. He leaned down to whisper in her ear, even though they were alone in the house. "Keep moving love and we will not be talking about the family for the rest of the night." He said as he kissed her ear. He had been away from her for to long and right now he needed time with his wife. He would worry about the family later. He knew that he needed to talk to Carlisle but getting him away from the hospital was the hard part.
Edward decided that they had talked enough and he moved Bella to where she was facing him but still in his lap. He leaned down and kissed her like it was the first time they ever kissed.

Bella tilted her head to the side and smiled as Edward kissed her ear before he whispered to her. There wasn’t anything in the world that she would have traded these small moments for. When she was a human there wasn’t much that could be done after this point. Edward had somehow managed to be around her and her scent; which she never fully understood once she realized how inviting they could be. He had worked so hard and masochistically punished himself in order to be near her. Each kiss she stole from him must have been hard in a way that she couldn’t have imagined, but Edward loved her enough to push through it. However, now that things were different she loved nothing more than the way he tossed her around, which was something else he didn’t do carelessly when she was a human.
“ I think it’s been made clear in the past that I’ll go along with about ninety-nine percent of the things you decide to do anyways,”, she smiled as she spoke in regards to him wanting to know what to do about the family. She knew that him talking to her was more or less just a way for him to try and handle all of the stress of everything that was happening. If she had an idea she would bring it to him; otherwise, whatever he wanted to do was usually the route that she would follow. And right now if he wanted her attention in a different way than discussing their family, well she wasn’t one to argue. As he kissed her again, more eagerly than when she had first come in, Bella bit down against his bottom lip. She was eager for his taste and had been too long without it. Reaching her hands underneath the fabric of his shirt she brought them to his chest just to feel his skin under her fingertips.

Edward smiled when Bella said that she would follow him. She was always agreeable with him. He drew in a quick breath when she bite his bottom lip. When she slid her hands under his shirt, he almost lost control. Not that it would matter any more. He could not hurt her now and he did not have to worry about that any more. He pulled her closer to him and kissed his way down her neck and back up to her lips. He wanted her and he was going to have what he carved. He stood up and carried her to the bed and gently laid her down. He was not in a hurry and was going to take his time getting to know her body again. "I have missed you my love, my Bella." He said as his slid his hand down her side.

When Edward stood up, Bella wrapped her arms tightly around his neck and hitched her leg over his hip. It hadn’t technically been too long since she had seen him last, but each day dragged on for what felt like eternity. She tried to not talk to him too much while he was gone incase she hindered making him lose his focus. So each moment she had wanted to hold or touch him was finally being able to be expressed. When he laid her down against the bed she smiled at the fact that it was their bed again. Even though she never slept in it, it still made her sad to walk past it nearly every day while he was away. It was their home and without him it just felt empty.
To be honest, without him she had felt empty. Even with her family around her, they all seemed to have their own issues going on and more focused on that then resolving any of the ties between them. She arched towards him as his hands traced down her side. “ I missed you,” she said in response back to him. Bella brought her hands back to his shirt and pushed it to the edge of his shoulders to try and push it off of him completely. As she lifted her head to kiss his collar bone, she bit against it gently to sink her teeth into his skin, literally and metaphorically. “ And I love you,” she said as she grazed her teeth against his shoulder and kissed the side of his neck again more gently.
