Everyday kind of day (OPEN)

It was just an everyday kind of day, everyone seemed to be doing something other than Esme. She had cleaned the whole house from top to bottom and it was still only half past twelve. It was just one of the annoying aspects of being a vampire. If you were bored you would be till you found something to amuse you. For Esme, she couldn't find anything. She had cleaned almost every room that people weren't in. Then when they moved she cleaned the rooms they had moved from. Next she had organised the cupboards in the kitchen and threw things into a bag that had been there for a few weeks, she would make sure someone handed them down to the shelter for her in the next couple of days. She didn't want it to go to waste, especially when there was some needy soul out there that would benefit from it.

Once she had felt like she had done everything she threw herself into the couch with a rather loud sigh. There is nothing to do. She had exhausted almost every mean of entertainment known to her. Having baked enough cookies to keep Jacob and his pack going for the next two or three days. She twirled her hair softly round her finger and looked around for something to do. nothing. Pursing her lips she grabbed one of her interior design magazines from her carefully arranged table and crossed one leg over the other. She really was enjoying this new fad of leggings. She had made sure to go shopping with Alice to pick up a few pairs.

Today Esme was wearing just a normal white tank top and navy blue leggings with a waterfall like jumper that hung loose from her lightly rounded frame. Her favorite Louboutin shoes on, she felt almost as tall as Edward. Her eye make-up was flawless as was her red mac lipstick. She had even painted her nails a nude color. All this effort for nothing, although having so much time on her hands she was always flawless looking. Not that she bothered much with appearance, it was just more of finding things to fill her endless amount of time. She had finished her latest house project a couple of days ago and was just waiting to hear from buyers. This was always the boring aspect of renovating houses.

It was just another dull Forks day. Everyday seemed to be blending into the next, like there was nothing happening anymore. Esme knew she had to get another hobby to keep her busy or at least get a job. Even Carlisle had been saying the hospitals have been quiet. It was just the summer lull before everyone went back to school and everything started happening again. Pushing the book from her hands she stood again and made her way to the kitchen once more. She just wanted to be busy and cooking would do that for her.

Getting stuck in, it wasn't long before she had lost herself beneath the flour and other ingredients. She had decided to make another cake. This one she would hand to Charlie, so he could eat it over his baseball match or whatever. Esme hadn;t realised how stuck in she actually had got. She had flour in her hair and chocolate icing on her tank top. She was happy that was all that mattered to her.

The hospital had been very quiet today at the hospital there had been a few of the patients that were still at the hospital that needed seeing to but after that he had spent the afternoon reorganising his paperwork and catching up, with that done there really was nothing else, so since it was quiet he had come home early. Parking the car in the garage he looked around for any sign of his children around but they all seemed to be out at the moment, which was rather odd, they were normally all around there was no way of getting rid of any of them, but he did not mind. They were all wonderful children they all had their bad days some more than others but that was what children did especially teenagers and apart of them would always be in the mentality of a teenager that he knew, so he could forgive them.

Entering their home he smiled finding the door unlocked, it was odd how this always amused him with the amount of people telling him to make sure he locked the door at night to protect his family, to be honest if someone tried to break in they were in more danger than the family. As he walked around he placed his bag on the table and took his coat off hanging it on the hooks before picking up on the scent of baking, this made him chuckle of corse he knew who would be backing and he moved silently through the house so that he was not detected. His suspicions were proven correct as he leant against the door frame watching his beautiful Esme baking, he was standing behind her so there was no way she would know he was here unless Alice had tipped her off and he doubted that or more hoped not. Quietly he snuck up behind her wrapping his arms around her waist "It's good to see the kitchen getting some use" he whispered in her ear softly as he rested his head on her shoulder.

It was true they had spent a small fortune on a kitchen and it never really got used only for the occasional meal that Rensmee was interested in eating and usually that was only pizza, but Esme loved to bake and baking made her happy, so by extent it made Carlisle so much happier. Her baking also pleased the wolf packs and especially jacob since they had to find someone to eat everything that was made and usually they were more than happy to oblige, "Well someone has been busy" Carlisle joked chuckling as he looked over the amount of cookies sitting in jars in front of them, she had been much busier than he had by the look of it, so he was glad to be home to spend time with her, it had been awhile since they had some time just the two of them with all the kids and wolf pack and with work, so it was good to have her to himself again even if it was just for a little while.

Esme was in full baking mode, when this occurred the kitchen was always in some form of mess. But of course she would clean it up as quick as a flash when she was done. It had to be perfect, everything she made had to be perfect. Although being a vampire she couldn't really tell if it tasted nice or not. She really wished someone was here to try it for her. She had mixed chocolate icing and different other colours of icing to decorate the top of the cake. She had went all out, a chocolate sponge with swirled of strawberry jam throughout. She was just waiting for it to finish baking so she could add the tiny intricate roses she had made out of marzipan.

She hadn't even heard Carlisle come in or even sneak up behind her. She jumped as he wrapped his hands round her waist. some vampire I am.. she thought to herself. But relaxed in his grip. " I was bored." she confessed. Leaning her head on his gently. If she could blush she would have. "I didn't know what to do with myself, there was no one around and nothing to do." She twisted round in his arms so she was face first into his chest. " I missed you." she whispered looking up at him from under her heavy lashes.

She placed a soft kiss on his chin and then cuddled into him. Accidentally getting flour all down his front. She realised what she had done and stepped back. "oops" she said softly. She hoped he wouldn't mind, but knowing Carlisle he wouldn't. She did wash the clothes after all. Well when Alice let her. Esme felt so at home just being with her husband. It was very rare they were home alone, but she was glad they were for once. She did miss him so. She hated having to say goodbye to him almost everyday. Although blood didnt bother her as much as it did Jasper. She knew she would never be able to hang about the hospital all day.

[carlisle cullen]

Carlisle smiled as she spoke about how she was bored he could have guessed that by the amount of cookies that were sat facing him, still she seemed to be enjoying herself "Well you don't have to worry about that anymore" He explained with a chuckle of course because now she was not alone now, but he knew the feeling he was always so use to having someone here that it was odd having the house to themselves. When she twisted around, he held her closer kissing her forehead softly as she spoke about missing him "I missed you to" he said softly, as she cuddled closer to him making him chuckle, he did miss her when they were apart, even though it was just a few hours every day so that he could make a difference to the world and to help others she was always on his mind, but that was love.

Carlisle could remember being so lonely without her, the times when it had been just him before any of his family had come along, those had been dark days but remembering Esme with her broken leg the first time they had met still made him smile even to this day. She had been such a beautiful human when he had met her the second time and he had thought it would be impossible for anyone to be anymore so or at least until he had met the vampire version of her, as he thought to himself he held her tighter. For Carlisle was not normally a very possessive person, but when it came to his family and especially Esme he never wanted to let her go, he never wanted to live without her.

As he looked down at himself realising she had got him covered in flour, when she stepped away he pulled an arm around her tighter taking a small handful from the table "Well then I guess this makes us even then" He said softly as he sprinkled a little flour on her hair, it was childish yes but the two of them could be childish from time to time besides it was just a little flour it was not going to kill them, maybe just give them extra washing. As he finished sprinkling the flour he pulled her closer kissing her softly and getting more flour on his shirt, but that did not matter to him possessions and clothing were insignificant to Carlisle, it was family and friendship that meant more than anything. Clothes could be replaced, but Esme could never, none of their family could they were all important to him and he would trade nothing for them and would protect them all until the day he died.

[esme ann cullen]

If Esme could blush she would have. Carlisle just made her feel amazing. Even from the day they first met when she broke her leg, he made her feel so beautiful. She had blushed so many times when he had came to treat her leg, he was just so beautiful it was hard not to look at him. His perfect white teeth and golden hair. She had daydreamed about him for weeks afterwords. He was like a movie star from Hollywood. But of course why would someone like that be interested in her?

It still confused her as to why Carlisle even saved her. She had just had her baby, her body was still rounded from her bump. But yet he had saved her from death and taken her home and gave her new life. He had also loved her like she had never imagined. She had doubted that she could ever be loved this way. Especially after the way she had been treated by her human husband. Charles had made her feel worthless. Every time he hit her it was like she deserved it. Well she thought that way anyway.

But Carlisle was so different. His arms around her, it was just perfect. She was safe in his arms. Carlisle would never ever raise a hand to her. He was just so gentle and loving. She giggled softly as he sprinkled flour in her hair. She melted into his kiss, wrapping her arms round his neck she smiled as she kissed him. "I love you" She whispered. Her voice tinkling like a sweet bell. When the kiss broke she snuggled into his chest and breathed in his scent. She would throw herself off a cliff again and again just to be here in Carlisle arms.

[carlisle cullen]

Carlisle smiled feeling her relax, he leant down towards her as she wrapped her arms around his neck watching the way she smiled at the flour in her hair. The calm that wavered through her as they kissed, she snuggled up against his chest professing her love for him and he nodded rubbing her back gently "I love you to" he said softly, yes he really did love her and from the moment she had opened her eyes after the transformation he had known that, it had taken him a little while to profess these feelings to her, but he had and now they were going to be together forever that he knew. Without her, without any of their family if anything happened to them Carlisle was not sure he could go back to existing on his own again, not after such great company and feeling loved by so many.

"I think your cake might burn if your not careful" he whispered softly as he looked from the oven back to his beautiful wife, wondering if he really wanted to let her go so she could fix it and stop the smoke all arms from going off when he could just hold her close to him. "makes me wish I was human all this, so I could try your beautiful baked creations"

Carlisle whispered in her ear softly as he kissed the top of her head slowly, surveying the messy kitchen it would only take seconds to clean with their speed, but it did amuse him to see this room used. He owed the wolf pack and Nessie for that without them it still would be a very useless room for a group of vampires. "Jake is going to love you next time he visits" he grinned kissing her head again as he stroked her hair gently.

[esme ann cullen]

Esme was so at peace in Carlisle arms she had forgotten all about her cake in the oven. In a way she did not care. "Oh.. yeah" She sighed softly and slowly untangled herself from him. She really wished she didn't have to. As she moved towards the over she opened the door carefully and turned the power off. She chuckled softly. "But if you were human, I might break you. I don't want to do that." She removed the cake from the oven and placed it on a cooling tray. She did often wish herself they were able to eat. Sometimes it felt pointless making all this beautiful food to give it away. It was unfair really. She had baked when she was a human and was good at it but she was unable to tell if the trait had carried over when she was a vampire. Although everybody complemented everything she made she was still unsure. She just wanted to taste it herself. It wasn't the first time someone had said they liked something just so they wouldn't upset her.

She smiled at his kisses, the dimples raising in her cheeks. "I don't think this will last very long when Jake visits." She chuckled softly. His hand in her hair she sighed slightly. His touch still caused electricity to run through her body. Even after all these years everything as still as fresh as it was when they first started dating. She remembered their honeymoon and how perfect it was. Little flashbacks of romantic weekends to isle Esme flashed through her head. She smiled and turned to look into his beautiful golden eyes. "How was work my love?" She was really leading up to something else but thought she should ask about his work first.

She was so proud of him. He was so strong. She felt so guilty that she had gave in to her craving for human blood when she was first turned. She had wanted so much to be like Carlisle, but it was just too much for her. She did not have the willpower that he did. He was an angel in her eyes. Perfect in everyway.

[carlisle cullen]

Carlisle leant against the table not noticing as he got more flour on himself for he was too busy watching and admiring Esme, how carefully she lifted the cake from the oven like at a human pace moving gently and softly, as she spoke about breaking him if he was human he chuckled. "Well then I guess we are lucky I am not" He said as she came back over to him again "We wouldn't want that to happen would we?" There was one thing Carlisle could spend forever doing and that was looking at Esme's smile it brightened the entire room, as she spoke about them not lasting long he chuckled "It will keep you busy though won't it trying to keep his appetite quenched" She really was the perfect wife and mother, there was nobody more caring and loving in the world in his opinion, instantly accepting of anyone and everyone, she was perfect in every way.

"Quiet really" He said softly resting his forehead against hers "Just a few overnight patients to see to and a few broken bones, but besides that uneventful, so I thought I would surprise you and come home early" Carlisle explained, there had been a few small things a few scheduled operations, but besides that nothing much and he was actually quite glad to be able to come home early as much as he loved his job sometimes he felt like he did not spend enough time here with his family. Though his efforts did make a difference to the world and helped to save lives, his family was the most important thing to him and yes they had forever together he still felt like he should be around more for them. Leaning forwards Carlisle tucked a few loose strands of her flour covered hair out of her face tucking them behind her ear, "So I guess it was a good day" As he looked at her he could not help but smile back at her holding her a little tighter as he stroked her waist gently, the other hand still playing with her hair.

[esme ann cullen]

Esme couldn't even fathom hurting Carlisle. It hurt her to even think about it. Even to hurt him unintentionally would make her never forgive herself. She couldn't hurt anyone. Even when they were up against the newborns and the Volturi, she found it hard to hurt them. Although they did threaten her family she was more of a lover than a fighter. She hated violence, everything could easily be solved with a good conversation - that's how she felt anyway. Even hurting humans made Esme angry. She didnt understand why the world was so violent and people constantly hurting each oth for nothing. So much hatred and murder in the world, for no reason.

She chuckled softly when Carlisle mentioned Jacobs appetite. " I think that's an Impossible task my love." She loved when he laughed. Just having him happy made her life so much better. She knew how much he had been through in his life and wanted to make the rest of it happy. She looked deep into his eyes when he laid his forehead on hers. The smile on her face shining so bright. She couldn't help but be happy. If she was human she was sure her face would hurt from all this smiling.

" I'm glad you came home early my love. I don't know what I would do without you." she beamed up at him. His hand in her hair, she moved her body closer to his. Allowing his hand to touch her waist. She nodded when he said about it being a good day. " Perhaps we should go on vacation? Have some more alone time..." again if she could have blushed she would have. She did feel like she was being selfish, wanting Carlisle all to herself. But surely as his wife she was aloud to be selfish sometimes. She moved her hand up to his cheek and ran her fingertips gently up his cheek bone. She was mesmerised by his handsome face. He was a god.

[carlisle cullen]

Carlisle nodded "I love you to" he repeated looking over her with a smile he really could not imagine a life worth living without his wonderful wife. A woman who cared and loved almost everyone she met with an unconditional and unquestionable love that he had missed in his time without them. Living forever was only worth it when you had someone to live for, someone to come home to, who made each day worth living and Esme did that for him. Knowing that there was this constant love for him that she would always be here was enough for him, she really was his life and without her he had no idea how he would live because he did not want to go back to existing alone.

At the suggestion of a holiday he smiled the two of them did not often find themselves alone it was always interrupted and to be honest it would be nice to have some alone time. "Where would you like to go? Carlisle asked softly as she ran her hand across his cheek his thoughts turned to her island Isle Esme remembering all the time they had spent there, but maybe she would prefer a change of scenery. It did not matter to him where they went all he knew was that he would follow her anywhere across rivers, over mountains, Carlisle would travel to the ends of the world just to be with her.

[esme ann cullen]

"But I love you more." Her voice rang like a bell, tinkling softly like beautiful music. She knew that they could stand for hours debating who loved who more, but in the end no one could win. Their love for each other was so equally strong that it was impossible to tell who did in fact love the other more. She would willing hand her heart over to Carlisle on a gold platter but she knew he would never take it because it kept her alive. Her heart was already his, every part of her he owned. She knew that her life would not be worth anything if anything happened to Carlisle. She would follow him without a doubt, and if there was some form of afterlife hopefully meet up with him there.

"Anywhere, as long as I am with you" She smiled up at him, her eyes never leaving his. It was really how she felt. She would follow him anywhere. The idea of being alone with him was so perfect. It had been so long since she had the privilege of having him all to herself. It was a selfish wish but even sometimes she had to put her foot down and make a little demand. She pushed herself up onto her tip toes and captured his lips once more. Her hand moving to his hair she pulled him forward for a more firmer kiss. Perhaps she was being a little greedy today but she could not deny how great the feeling was. "I want you all to myself" She breathed softly against his lips before resuming the kiss. It was very unlike Esme but she was so intoxicated by his presence and how close they had been in the few precious moments they had shared.

[carlisle cullen]

Carlisle could not help but chuckle as she spoke about loving him more it was a discussion they had very often who it was that loved the other the most and it was something Carlisle was quite sure he could win he most certainly loved her most, after centuries of solitude she had brightened his life. He could not imagine his life going back to the way it was and more than anything he could not imagining loosing her ever, if he did then he knew that he did would not want to go on without her. As he thought he ran his hands slowly through her hair as he thought about it, remembering the first time she opened her eyes as a vampire and he saw her beautiful bright red eyes he had known then that he loved her and he made the best decision because he wanted to spend forever with her.

As she spoke about how she did not care where they went as long as they were together he chuckled "Well I'm sure we can arrange a trip for us together somewhere" They kissed again he leant down a little bit to help her out so she did not have to stand on her tip toes, their height difference did make him smile a little bit it always had he wrapped his hands around her waist pushing her down on to her flat feet as she pulled him into a deeper kiss making him grin. It seemed Esme was in quite the possessive mood today he thought to himself "If that's the case I will book it sooner rather than later" he joked with a smile "You tell me where you want to go and we will go there, only issue is who to leave in charge whilst we are gone" Yes carlisle liked the idea of a trip away with his wife the hospital would love to give him a holiday since if he did not take one soon they would have to force him into a few days off and that left the only people to worry about as their lovely adopted children and he did hope they could keep themselves out of trouble for at least a week. Sometimes it felt like the second they were left alone someone did something wrong and he was tidying it up again not that Carlisle minded because that was what fathers did and if there was one thing he loved just as much as Esme it was being a father or grandfather for his adopted family.

[esme ann cullen]

Sometimes it was like little and small. Esme was quite petite, but she came from a family of small women. Carlisle was just a Greek Adonis, he was tall handsome and well built. She loved every inch of him. Sometimes she did not get to appreciate him as much as she would like to but there was so many other factors in their family that needed their attention. Sometimes Esme would put her foot down and take him all for herself, but these moments were rare. Partly because the trouble their children usually found the selves in. They were the parents in this big family so had to keep the peace. She often wondered what it would be like if they were not their. Carlisle was the glue that held them all together.

She smiled into their kiss as he allowed her to stand flat. She did not mind standing on her tip toes. It just added to the excitement. She grinned at him brightly as he spoke. He was like a drug, she wanted more and could never have enough. Despite them being together for so many years it was always still new. The electricity was still there.

She bit her lip and thought for a second. He was right they had to consider who to leave in charge. "As soon as possible, and perhaps Isle Esme?" they had not been there for so long. Keeping close to his chest, she placed a hand just over his heart and grinned at his mischievously. " perhaps Bella and Edward? Bella would keep them all in line." she laughed softly. Esme enjoyed to be forceful, but she only did so rarely. There was a whole side to her that only Carlisle knew about. She did not think it was appropriate for her children.

[carlisle cullen]

Carlisle smiled as she spoke "It does seem like a good idea, your island mys be lonely without you" He joked holding her closer to him smiling as she placed a hand over his unbeating heart it had been a very long time since it had worked at all and he was still not use to it at all. If it did work however he knew that it would beat for one person and one person alone and that would be his beautiful Esme she was his one true love nothing could take that from him. That was something he had known ever since her eyes had opened after he had saved her and looked upon her he had known it had been the correct decision, that he had given her a new life and one that he was lucky to be able to share with her.

"That seems like a good suggestion, but I think choosing Bella may upset Rosalie and the older ones" He admitted with a smile pulling her closer running a hand up and down her back gently "I think Alice might be a good choice, but then again she has probably already seen our decision coming or Jasper since he is best at keeping them all in line and getting along with each other" Carlisle admitted with a chuckle, "But then again so is Edward, but Jasper is more subtle than him with his ability" It was not that they needed Jasper to get along, but it just helped him relax to know that there would be no trouble whilst they were away and they could all get on without a major problem which was what he needed to know.
