Seraph

106

The family sat in the living room, enjoying the baby's presence. Serafina watched as the baby reached toward Alice instead of Jacob, to which the boy pouted. The two had been trying to lure her over in a contest. Jacob tempted her with toys, while Alice tempted her with a pretty new dress. Surprisingly, the dress won. Alice happily picked up the little girl and went upstairs to her bedroom to go through the new outfits she had gotten for her.

Jacob turned a questioning gaze toward Edward, "Should she even be playing with her?" he turned back to follow the two with his eyes as they disappeared upstairs.

Edward frowned, but Serafina had already questioned what he was talking about before he could say anything.

"Well," Jacob stated as though it were obvious. He made some gestures toward Alice. "She wanted Renesmee to be aborted," he finally managed.

Edward sighed inwardly but knew it was too late.

"Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black?" Jasper asked incredulously. He was immediately becoming defensive.

"Ha! It's funnier cause your last name is Black," Emmett guffawed.

"Shut up, Emmett. But yeah. Jazz is right," Serafina nodded.

"If anything, you and Edward are the pieces of shit who shouldn't be around her," Rosalie glared.

"What?" Jacob asked with confusion.

"Alice tried to calmly talk Bella into an abortion to save her life potentially. She was concerned for Bella's safety but understood it was her decision and tried to rationally talk her into thinking of herself over the baby that was, at the time, killing her," Jasper explained.

"You wanted to kill a baby," Serafina pointed out. She raised a brow to the boy, "You weren't going to do anything to it while it was still an 'it' growing inside the girl. You were going to wait until it was an actual bouncing baby girl to murder her."

Jacob had an immediate frown but couldn't think of a defense. He looked toward Edward, who he had slowly begun to befriend when a sudden series of annoyed tongue clicks drew his attention back.

"Edward is no better," Rosalie reminded, "He wanted to go against his wife's wishes and force an abortion on her that she didn't want either."

Serafina nodded, agreeing, "If mi amor wasn't there, Demonia might not even be here right now."

"So before you start trying to say anything about how Alice shouldn't be able to be near that baby," Rosalie continued before her wife interrupted her.

"Then you two pieces of shit better shut the fuck up!" Serafina finished with a pointed glare aimed toward the two.

There was an annoyed click from the kitchen, "I doubt Rosie was going to use such foul language there, Serafina," came their mother's voice from the kitchen.

"Oh, no, I was," Rosalie said, throwing a high-five to her wife, who shared a conspiratorial smirk.

"Thank you!" they suddenly heard from Alice upstairs.

Before Jacob or Edward could even think of a response, they heard a 'ta-da' from upstairs and soon saw Alice make her way down with the baby in a matching outfit to herself. Both were dressed in a golden yellow. But while Alice's was a stylish yellow with two black stripes, the baby was in a frilly yellow dress decorated with bumblebees. The cuteness was overloaded with the matching bumblebee-clad headband.

The awws commenced. As Alice made her way down, the baby smiled at all the attention and reached for Serafina, who gladly accepted and held her as she bounced her a bit.
