Romeo & Juliet With A Child (Book 1)

~Saturday~

As I was making Anna's and I dinner, I feel my phone vibrate in my front right pocket of my jeans. I pull it out and I answer the phone call.

"Hello?"
"Hey babe, it's me. We have a little situation that I need you and Anna to come over in about five minutes."

I get a stern expression on my face, 'I wonder what situation they are in?'

"Anna and I will be there shortly."
"Okay, I will wait for you here. Love you."

As I end the phone call, I quickly grab some clothes for Anna from her bag on the table in the dinning room. Next I call Anna in from the living room, she rubs her eyes from not getting any sleep last night.

Anna kept getting nightmares of bad things to come. So to try and stop the nightmares from coming, we both decided to not sleep last night.

"Momma, I'm tired." Anna rubs her eyes looking very tired.

"I know baby, but Emmett needs us for something. I think Esme with gladly let you sleep on their couch." I tell her picking her up and locking up the house.

Anna lays her head on my shoulder, and I carefully buckle her up in her car seat. Then we set off towards the Cullen's house.

As we get there, Emmett is outside waiting for us along with Lane. I turn off my car, and I open my car door.

"What is this big situation you got yourselves in now?" I asked them putting my hand on my hip.

Emmett speeds over to me, and whispers into my ear.
"Bella found out about us."

My eyes widens in alert, 'If Bella knows about my boyfriend's family. Does that mean she will figure out me and Anna?'

As I was thinking, Lane got Anna out of her car seat. Her head is on his shoulder, "Oh! Thank you Lane, Can you put her on the couch?"

Lane smiles and nods his head, he walks up the stairs to his house before I turn my attention to Emmett.
"Is Anna always sleeping?" He asked jokingly.

"No, she had a nightmare that scared her so much that she wanted to stay up with me." I tell him as he intertwines our fingers together.

"Poor squirt."

We enter the house, and Alice races down the stairs with a smile on her face.
"Valerie!"

She pulls me into a bone crushing hug, "Don't crush her too much dear." I hear Jasper say as he walks down the stairs over to give me a hug.

I hug him back before Rosalie walks down the stairs along with Lane behind her.
"Valerie, it is nice to see you again."

"It's nice to see you again, Rosalie." I say as I hug her back.
"So I heard Bella knows what you are."

"Yeah! I saw it coming from my visions!" Alice says keeping the smile on her face.

"I don't particularly like her, but she makes Edward happy." Rosalie says crossing her arms over her chest.

"Does that mean, I have to tell her what Anna and I are?" I asked them. I feel Emmett wraps his arms around my waist.

"Not if you don't want to." I hear Carlisle reply.

I look up at the stairs again, I see Carlisle poking his head around the corner. I giggle at Carlisle, "Okay, I will think about it."

Next Esme pokes her head out from behind from the kitchen.
"Rosalie, Alice can you help me with something?"

Rosalie and Alice turn to look at Esme, "Coming!"

I smile at them both, "Hi Esme."

Esme looks over at me, she gets a huge smile on her face.
"Hello Valerie! It's nice to see you again."

She speeds down the stairs and hugs me tightly. "It is nice to see you too Esme."

She pulls back as Rosalie and Alice blurs over to the kitchen.
"Is there anything I can help with?" I asked them.

Esme smiles and shakes her head, "No Valerie, you just relax. After hearing about Anna, I think you should stay near her."

"Okay, just call me if you do need me." I tell her before turning around and kissing Emmett.

Emmett smiles before they both walk up the stairs, Emmett takes a left and I take a right.

I enter the living room, and I see Anna sleeping with a blanket on top of her.

I sit down in a chair to the left of the couch, I pet Anna's hair as I enter my thoughts.

'I wonder if the Faey Elders will get mad, if I tell a human friend about what we are? I mean sure, our kind wants to stay hiding from humans but I bet we can co-exist like with the Cullens.'

I sigh and I rub my head from a headache that came on quickly.

"Having a tough afternoon?" I hear someone speak. I look up to see Lane standing in the hallway.

I smile, "Is it that obvious?"

He smiles and walks over to sit in a chair across from me.

We just sit there in a comfortable silence, then I hear a car pull up to the house.

Lane sighs before standing up from the chair, "Here they come, ready for this?"

I nod my head at him, "You bet." I tell him as I get up from the chair and I walk into the kitchen with Lane.

As I enter the kitchen, I see Esme and Carlisle cooking what looks like some chicken meal that looks delicious.

I see Rosalie holding a glass bowl looking bored, with Lane behind her sitting on a chair. 

I look over at the dining table, to see Emmett sitting down looking out of the window. I smile at him before walking over to him. I wrap my arms around his shoulders and I put my head down on his shoulder.
"Hey babe. Where's Alice and Jasper?"

He turns his head and smiles at me.
"Hey babe, They are getting some blood before Bella comes."

I hear the door open from downstairs, and I know Edward and Bella are here.

"Here comes the human!"
