{FIFTY ONE}

EDWARD CULLEN
Ever since I left her I couldn't stop thinking about her. Something about her drew me in wanting her even more than I ever had. So, for the past few days I would sneak into her room at night while she was asleep and I would hold her until the sun came up...it was weird and maybe even stalkerish in a way but I didn't care. I had to hold her. To see her. To love her in the only way I could. So, there I laid cuddled into her as it was 10 o clock at night. Her legs gently wrapped around me and her head buried into my chest with her hands gently placed protectively onto her belly. I knew how much she wanted a kid but it killed me to see her slowly dying. Knowing the woman I love would soon be gone from me...but...she's always been gone for what seems like a long time...

Gently I kissed her head as I brought my hands to her head and gently played with her hair letting her soft wavy hair run through my fingers. I smiled softly as I heard her mumble in satisfaction and cuddle closer into me which brought me so much happiness.

"I love you. So much" I whispered into her ear placing another gentle kiss onto her head watching her hum in her sleep happily.

Smiling I looked down at her swollen belly seeing a ring on her finger...the wedding ring I got her...she wore it...even after I left and broke her heart...

Slowly I felt my smile turn into a frown as I placed one of my hands on top of hers feeling how cold her skin was. Feeling as she shivered a bit from my touch...it broke me that I couldn't keep her warm but I needed her...I needed to do this because I was selfish...selfish for as me being here only makes me happy and I never considered how she would feel if she knew I was doing this...would she hate me? Would she love me? Would she...need me...

As I was getting lost in my thoughts I didn't hear or notice that the door was opening and when I did I didn't care. I didn't move. I didn't want to. Not now not ever.

"Edward, if you're going to keep doing this I could let you in you know" a soft voice spoke as I looked up to see Ilsa standing by the door with a styrofoam cup in her hand. Blood.

"How'd you know?" I spoke with a hint of confusion but still didn't manage to really care as much as the thought of Aurora raced through my mind.

"Who do you think leaves the window unlocked? After the first night she thought she left the window open thinking that's why she's so cold but I knew it was you so when she would sleep I would unlock it the. Lock it again when you left. I'm not stupid because I know you love her and she loves you. But, you're too stubborn and it's annoying" she spoke as she then leaned onto the door frame with a look of annoyance at my stupidity.

"Thank you for that...leaving the window unlocked..." I spoke completely dismissing the fact she said Aurora loved me back...but...that couldn't be true...she hated me.

"And you're avoiding the fact she loves you. You know, you need to tell her you're the one at night who's holding her or maybe tell her that you sneak in at night because she truly thinks she's moving on from you yet denying it. Watch. Tomorrow night don't come and sleep with her and watch. When she wakes up she'll be upset. There's a reason why she seems better. Looks better. Feels better. That's because you're here and it makes her happy. Even if she doesn't know it"

Slowly I nodded as I didn't know what to say. I didn't want to skip a night without her. I didn't want to spend the extra hours alone...it was selfish I guess but those hours were the best hours of my life.

"Edward. One night. That's all I'm asking. Then you can see the effect your presence has on her. Just one" she spoke pleadingly. It was as if she wanted us together...

"Does her dad know" I spoke changing the topic as I heard her sigh softly shaking her head.

"No. He doesn't...he hasn't even seen her in the two weeks she's been stuck in her room...he goes day in and day out thinking his own daughter is dying and it's ripping him apart" she spoke as I sighed laying my head onto Aurora's hearing her make a small happy noise.

"She's going to die isn't she?" she spoke gently as I tensed up at the thought. Her being dead...I guess I just didn't think of her being dead...or well, I've never even...said it...nor heard it.

"You have to at least tell me that...her dad thinks she hates him and he's working extra hours so he doesn't have to be home. He misses his daughter. She's all he really has left. She's all he thinks he has left. Imagine that. Your wife, your son, and now your daughter. Gone" she spoke softly as I tensed up thinking about it...if Aurora survived we would have twins...maybe a boy and a girl or two boys or even two girls...if I lost them...either of them...I would be heartbroken...lost...dead.

As I was getting lost in my thoughts I heard a small heartbeat. And it wasn't the twins or Aurora...I could tell. It was some distance away as I started counting the heartbeats I heard. One. Two. Three. Three from Aurora...One. Two...

"You're pregnant" I blurted as I watch the shock spread throughout her face.

"What? No I'm not?" she spoke confused a bit as I nodded.

"Yeah. You're pregnant. About...four weeks?" I guessed as she seemed shocked stunned.

"No I-" she started but then that's when I realized Aurora was waking up...

Quickly yet carefully I pulled away from her as I got out of the bed placing the covers over her rushing over to the window.

"You're pregnant. Take a test. I can hear the heartbeat" I spoke and with that I left running off back to my house...alone.

AURORA FROST
I woke up with a small mumble as I looked around to see it was still dark out. "Ilsa?" I mumbled looking around. Normally she was here in the mornings before I woke up...then again, it's not morning.

"Ilsa?" I spoke a bit louder and sat up with a small grunt feeling a small kick. The twins have been calm lately. It was odd but felt so relieving.

"Ilsa?!" I practically yelled as I turned to see her sitting on a chair with her hands placed onto her stomach. Her expression blank yet filled with so much shock.

"Ilsa?" I spoke gently standing up as I walked over to her carefully because well, now that they were calmer I could actually walk on my own for once.

"Hey. What's wrong?" I spoke gently as I watched her look up at me with fear in her eyes.

"N-Nothing. Uh you shouldn't be up and walking a-around" she stammered out as I raised a brow at her sudden change of topic.

"I feel great. The pain has gone away and the twins are calm. They don't seem to be kicking as hard and seem to be really happy. I'm fine, Ilsa. But, something is wrong...isn't it?" I spoke softly as she smiled shaking her head.

"No, Sweetheart. Just go back to sleep" she hummed as I nodded hesitantly. Something seemed off but I didn't want to push it...really she was all I had left for company and without her I would be completely alone.

Gently I climbed back into my bed as I pulled the covers over me so I would keep warm. The past few days without Esward had seem so perfect. The babies are calmer and I feel happier. It was a feeling I've never felt in so long but it felt good.

"Hey, babies" I cooed softly in a hushed tone earning a small kick making me smile.

"Mommy's gonna go back to bed darlings" I whispered earning another kick making my smile widen as I laid down and fell back asleep. Happily.

Hours later I was still awake. Completely. Wide. Awake. Yeah I got a few hours of sleep after a while but the twins started to kick in the middle of the night...and they were kicking hard...it was just...odd. I thought I was moving on and I guess I wasn't...maybe...that or something else. Maybe they were hungry?

I stood up carefully only to get a hard kick feeling one of my cracked ribs now break completely as I collapsed back down onto the bed screaming in pain. Quickly the door burst open and Ilsa ran in with a cup of blood in her hand.

"I-Ilsa, s-somethings wrong!" I sobbed feeling the kicks become continuous as the pain was unbearable. It felt like how it felt the first two weeks and not like the couple of last days...and it hurt like hell...it seemed as if they were kicking even harder.

"Hey. Hey hey hey" she spoke gently handing me the cup. "Drink. You need the strength" she spoke softly playing with my hair as I nodded taking a sip imminently. Maybe...just maybe they were hungry?

As I drank I could feel them kicking even harder making me sob as I suddenly coughed and spit out the blood I was drinking all over the floor. I sobbed in complete and utter pain as I didn't know what to do. I felt so scared.

"I-Ilsa" I sobbed as she held me tightly...or well...as tight as she could.

"G-Get Carlisle. Call Renesmee. Anyone!" I screamed as she quickly got up grabbing her phone calling whoever she wanted. I didn't care. I didn't care who she called. I just wanted them to stop!

I cried in pain and agony as I laid there with my hands gently placed onto my stomach as I was moving the ring on my finger back and forth. Maybe...maybe I did miss him...maybe I didn't move on...

After what seemed like forever, the room was filled with vampires and well, anyone who wanted to help. Alice was holding my hand as Rosalie was holding my other. I couldn't be delivering, could I?

"The babies just seem really upset" Carlisle spoke not really understanding what was happening.

"Nothing's wrong they just seem very...angry. Have you tried drinking blood?" he asked as I pointed to the blood-covered floor as he looked confused.

"You spit it out?" he asked as I nodded with deep shallow breaths.

"You can't be delivering because it's too soon. Even for twins. Right now I think it's best for you to stay at our house because now is the best time to move you. Any later I won't be able to help you" he spoke as I nodded quickly not caring anymore about the specifics of whatever.

"Aurora? What is it you'd like?" he asked calmly. How could he be so calm!

"I DON'T CARE JUST GIVE ME EDWARD!" I screamed without thinking as everyone was looking at each other as if they knew something...and it scared me.

"Take her to your place. I want her and the twins to be as safe and healthy as possible. I'll come by in a bit just, please. Help her" Ilsa spoke for me between my sobs as Carlisle nodded and looked at Emmett.

"Emmett, can you, Jasper, and Rosalie help me get Aurora back to the house. Alice, run ahead and tell Esme and Edward to get a bed ready for her" he spoke looking at Alice and said something else but only so she could hear and all this talking just pissed me and the twins off even more.

"JUST TAKE ME THERE!" I screamed as the next thing I knew we were on our way...carefully...slowly...and fucking painfully.

EDWARD CULLEN
I sat there in my room reading some random book I found as I knew it wasn't mine but maybe Aurora's. She probably left it here when she was staying her for a night and never remembered about it...

I couldn't help but smile as this book reminded me so much of her. It was twisted but sweet. A twisted romance. She loved those. Something cute, sappy, love like yet filled with so much darkness. She loved it when they had those sudden twists in a book. I remember when she once told me those types of twists are what makes a book good to her.

"Beautiful Angel" I muttered to myself with a smile as Alice ran in with a worried look spread across her face.

"Aurora is coming here!" she spoke quickly as I look of panic spread across my face and a feeling of worry spreading throughout my body.

"Wait what?! Did something happen?!" I spoke standing up as she just shook her head.

"The twins are giving her a hard time. They're kicking and even kicking hard enough to snap all her cracked ribs and make her spit and choke out the blood she's trying to drink for them. They're causing her a lot of pain and Carlisle's going to bring her here. I have Esme setting a bed for her but she wants you. She needs you" she spoke as I just shook my head not knowing what to do. I worried about her but she didn't need me. She needed Carlisle's help. Not mine. I was no use to her or our babies.

"Edward. You and I both know the only reason why those babies are happy is because you sleep with her late at night. Your presence makes the twins happy and without you they get angry" she spoke as I raised a brow confused.

"What about daytime?" I questioned as she grumbled hitting the table in anger.

"SHE NEEDS YOU EDWARD! YOU BABIES NEED YOU!" she screamed in my face as I heard the door open and screams of pain and agony rang throughout the house as I heard cries and screams as all she wanted was this to end...I froze hearing the cracks and breaks of her bones making her sob as instantly I ran down holding her hand not caring anymore and suddenly she looked at me with her expression becoming calmer as she whimpered softly. I could hear the twins calming down and her bones we're no longer breaking. Everything just seemed...normal.

"Listen to Aurora. You need to get some rest okay?" I spoke gently as she sat up with a wince making me instantly shake my head.

"Sleep. It's not a request. You need to drink blood until you feel better and then sleep" I spoke seriously as I could hear the babies thoughts...and their thoughts...it broke my heard.

'Daddy?' one of them was thinking to make me sigh softly but feel extremely happy.

"Carlisle? Is there any blood for her to drink?" I asked gently as he nodded pouring it in a cup and handed it to me carefully.

"Here you go mi amore. Drink up" I whispered and cooed gently as she drank looking so much better. Happier. Calmer.

"Now sleep" I whispered as she nodded cuddling her head into my chest and fell into a deep calm and happy sleep as I couldn't help but smile feeling happy soft kicks on my hand which somehow found its way to her swollen belly.

Once she was asleep I kissed her stomach smiling. "Babies. Give your mommy a good time. Don't cause her too much pain babies" I whispered earning a sott kick as if agreeing.

"I love you both. All three of you. So so much" I whispered and what he as Aurora looked so...peaceful.

"I love you, mi amore...I will make this right"
