Born To Be His (Edward Cullen Story)

Chapter 4 - Adoption ans Blood Singer

*Esme*

The Kids left for another day Iyla decided that she needed to go even though Edward tried to convince her not to. I can see it in his eyes he’s in love with her even if he might not have figured it out himself. I was looking at some interior designs when the door bell rang; I got up to answer it there stood a woman with long blond hair carrying one folder and a handbag. “Hello can I help you?” I smiled kindly at her whom she returned “Hello I was told that I would find Iyla Scott here” she said looking at her paper work “yes she’s at school, she thought it would take her mind off stuff. Please come in”

 I opened the door wider “oh is that such a good idea from what I read in her file she’s is on anti depressants after her parents death and it also says that she didn’t leave the house she was forced” she re looked at her paperwork “well this is a little different as I understand it she was understandably close to her mum and dad but didn’t have the same with her aunt” I told her

She sat down nodding that she understand “would you like anything to drink” I asked “I’ll have coffee if you have some” she smiled “of course” I went into the kitchen and put the kettle on the phoned Carlisle “hello” he answered “hey social services are here” I told him “okay I’ll take an early ‘lunch’” with that her hung up I finish making her coffee and brought it in “here you go” I handed it to her “thank you.” she took it from me and I sat down.

“it good that your here this morning before Iyla awoke we had a family meeting and we were wondering if it was possible if we could adopt Iyla” I said “really” she place her coffee down just then Carlisle came through the door “ah honey this oh sorry I didn’t ask your name how rude of me” I looked at her she stood up “Clarissa Bennett” she answered and shook hands “I was just telling Clarissa about are hope to adopt Iyla” I turned back to him “oh yes”

we sat back down “well to be honest I don’t see why not may I ask how you know Iyla” she questioned “well she is fried with the rest of our Adopted kids they talk about her nonstop since we met it would be an awful shame to see her leave from what we have heard and seen she is quite taken with the family and this place we already treat her as one of our own” Carlisle told her I nodded in agreement

“wow just wow in all my years of working with kids I’ve never seen such devotion I mean really with Iyla’s background and what she’s been through people looking to foster or adopt would class her as broken or damaged but you see through that” she smiled as she wiped away a stray tear “well I don’t see why not I’ll talk to my boss there shouldn’t be any problems I should be back some time later if that’s alright” we nodded and she left

*Alice*

We were all sat at lunch when I had a vision a blond woman was talking to a old man convincing him about Iyla she gave a very good argument and she won the old guy dismissed her and she went back to her desk to get the paper work. I looked at Edward and squealed in excitement Iyla jumped “jeez Alice doesn’t do that” she grumbled you could tell that she had lack of sleep. She leaned her head on Edwards shoulder they looked so cute together.  Edward looked at me he knew what I was thinking and smiled “look she’s fallen asleep” Rose informed us “I think I’ll take her home” Edward said

*Edward*

I lifted Iyla up in my arms and carried her out Alice followed behind me with her bag then she opened the door and I carefully placed her in strapping her up. Alice had already put her bag in the back seat “oh Alice” she turned to me I chucked keys at her “would you pick up her car” she nodded and skipped back inside.

I drove out of school and listened to her thoughts she was thinking about when I helped her pick up her stuffed after we bumped into each other I smiled at the thought then she was remembering the time in the wood yesterday when we got to know each other” before I knew it I was pulling outside the house where there was another car and voices coming from inside.

I carried Iyla into the hose and show Carlisle and Esme were talking to the woman from Alice’s vision. “Edward your home early. Clarissa this is our youngest Edward, Edward this is Clarissa Iyla’s social worker” Esme introduced us “hello. Iyla didn’t get much sleep last night and she fell asleep on my shoulder so I brought her home” I informed them they nodded and I took her upstairs to her room. “well that’s all done I’m so glad she is being taken care of you and your family I will be back next month to check on how she’s doing” I heard from downstairs then the door shut.

I went downstairs and found them looking through the paper work “ah Edward it’s all sorted would you like to tell her” Carlisle asked “yeah I’ll tell her” he nodded “well I’m off back to work” he kissed Esme cheek the tapped my shoulder before he left. “How is she?” Esme asked “okay I guess last night she remembered when she was told her parent weren’t coming back they weren’t very delicate with her” I replied she nodded “I’m going to wait for her to wake up I said leaving the room.

It was nearly time for the others to finish when she woke up “huh how did I get here?” she raked a hand through her hair “I brought you home you fell asleep on my shoulder” she blushed “sorry and thanks for bringing me back” she sat up “actual there is something we well I wanted to tell you” she nodded for me to continue “well. Carlisle and Esme just adopted” her jaw dropped “your having me on” I shook my head “but why? They don’t know me” she questioned “one Alice saw it, two they already see you as a daughter after how much we talked about you” she smiled and hugged me then ran downstairs I followed.

She hugged Esme “thank you I know you didn’t have to do it” she realised her I leaned against the door frame “it was the least we could do” ‘you really need to tell her Edward’ Esme thought I nodded “Iyla do you want to come for a walk” she nodded and we left.

Out in the woods I started to talk “I wanted to tell you about something that is rare to vampires it called blood singer. It’s a human that is special to one vampire its more appealing than any other in most cases vampires kill their human but in others they survive” we stopped “you’re my blood singer” I finished “but you haven’t killed me why?” she asked “the pill you take dulled she smell and thus the craving which I’m glad it did because I wouldn’t be able to have done this” I lifted her chin up and Kissed her she kissed back and slipped her arms around my neck.

This moment was perfect
