Can perchance have the Cullen family finding out Bella is a little??? 👉👈 she has so much lost childhood to make up for and I think the Cullens could help with that
You definitely can!
The Cullens find out Bella is a little!
Bella would fs try to conceal it, forever the parentified daughter. She’s always terribly afraid she’s pestering anyone by being small.
How the Cullens discover it
When Alice came back from Ithaca, she had found a regressed Bella. She was cold, and traumatized from her brush from death. Everytime she could have a chance to see Edward, she relished it. She yearned for him to take care of her, to hold her like he had so many months ago. Alice found her curled in her bed, holding her lamb stuffed animal she had bought herself. She had her knees to her chest, with a far off glossy look in her eyes. Her thumb was in her mouth as she stared off, out of the window as if Edward would just appear. When she had noticed Alice’s presence, she startled. The poor thing began to panic, tears quickly streaming down her cheeks.
“Alice?” She had asked, voice full of disbelief.
“Hey, Bella! I missed you! I’m so glad you’re okay!” She said cheerily, gentle and soft, the little one quickly soothed. She hugged her, holding her close. She soothed over her hair as Bella cried, clinging to her as if she was scared she’d drift away.
Later on, after the run in with the volturi, Edward was the first to know. With him hearing Alice’s thoughts, she had told him, and he easily accepted. When Bella found that instead of pushing her away again for regressing, she was welcomed with open arms by the siblings, telling everyone else got far easier. She left it up to them to tell the others, and they all accepted it pretty easy. When you’ve been around for a century, or close to that, you get very open minded.
How they treat the little one!
Alice
Totally a big sister! She was Cynthia’s when she was a human, and old habits die hard!
Bella can definitely expect to have a partner for tea parties and dress up!
Alice is also very good at Barbie’s
Since the poor thing is still pretty traumatized from her brush with death, Alice is very good at bath times.
She will also sit with Bella and read her stories or sing her lullaby’s.
Big fan of braiding Bella’s hair, or just playing with it in general!
Bella reminds her of Cynthia, so it’s a bit of mutual healing for the two of them!
Once Bella’s a bit more comfortable with it, you can count on him joining his mate and the little one in whatever activity they are doing.
Jasper
Very gentle with Bella
Originally the little one is a little wary of him since he almost attacked her at her birthday party.
Once the two move past that though it’s smooth sailing!
He loves walking with her in the trees, or giving her piggy back rides! He’ll run through the trees with her on his back just to hear her endless giggling.
Alice is very fond of this as well, her favorite times are often when her and Jasper are caring for Bella.
Will tell her stories of all the places he’s been and what the past was like
He does make sure to leave out details that would upset the little one though!
Will do his bat twirl when she asks, just cos he knows it makes her giggle.
Edward
Her main caregiver even though most of the Cullens treat her as their little as well.
Loves holding her while she sleeps or when she’s feeling clingy.
Will jump tree to tree with her similarly to Jasper just to hear her laugh and squeal.
Will listen to music, play piano or read stories to her. Bella loves him reading her Shakespeare or other classic literature. She doesn’t always understand the big words, but his voice is the part she really loves.
This kiddo has a whole lot of abandonment trauma, so after the events of new moon she is definitely wary of him.
Once she’s sure he won’t leave again, she clings to him like no other.
Edward can’t even make her something or get her a sippy cup without her whimpering and almost in tears.
He will carry her with him around the house just to stop her from being upset.
Little Bella doesn’t have the best grasp on object permanence, so whenever Edward leaves the room after spending time with her, she automatically thinks he’s leaving again.
The minute he comes back though she’s so ecstatic about it and clinging to him.
Loves calling her pet names! Will call her little lamb, or sweetheart more often than not.
Loves sitting in the meadow with her and letting her see his skin glimmer in the sunlight peaking through the trees.
Rosalie
Definitely the most distant in the beginning
She does come around eventually she’s just very guarded at the start
Once she is a bit more willing to take care of the little one all that goes out the window
Loves taking care of Bella when she is super little!
She loves playing with her hair or playing peekaboo with the kiddo.
Will tickle her just to hear her precious little giggle!
Big fan of rules and of naptimes
Really she just likes watching the little one dream while she pets her hair.
A stickler on sugar and on too many snacks
Will scold Bella for ruining her supper
But she does manage to stock the house full of things the little will eat.
Loves watching Emmett play with her too! She always wanted her and Emmett to have a child so she can do that vicariously through her!
Emmett
He thrives outdoors, okay?
He would be so good at playing with her outside, or just making mud pies!
Rosalie would scold him for getting her dirty though.
“Stop letting that little girl drag in mud!” “It’s just dirt and she was having fun, babe, c’mon”
Rosalie does shake her head and clean up the mess, but she wouldn’t have it any other way.
He gives amazing piggy back rides since he’s built like He-Man
Is surprisingly so soft with Bella?
Like he will let her sleep on his chest while him and Rosalie are cuddled up, he’ll he’ll even put a heating pad under his shirt so she’s not too cold.
Amazing at hide and seek, even though he can always find Bella immediately, he will really draw it out for her.
Esme
Thee momma to end all mommas!
Will cook(usually too much) for the little one!
She’s lowkey forgotten how much humans need to eat so she has to learn to feed Bella the appropriate amount.
The definition of she’s a little confused but she’s got the spirit
Loves to buy her trinkets and gear while she’s out!
“This reminded me of you and I just had to get it, Angel.”
Bella hates gifts but does really treasure everything any of the Cullens give her.
A total mom, we’re talking scolding to eat her veggies, fretting over nap times, and worrying about if the sugar she had spoilt her appetite.
Her love language is acts of service and does she show it!
Will do her laundry and fold it, cook for her, keep her gear clean and sanitary, and making sure her things are neat!
She definitely converted a room in their house to a nursery for Bella!
Hell she even got her one of those expensive adult sized cribs or had a custom woodland themed bed frame made!
Will get her plenty of stuffies!
Carlisle
The best at helping whenever the little gets a booboo, or hurt.
Will play doctor with her!
Bella does play the doctor and usually gives him the most asinine diagnoses for fun.
“You have rabies and we need to amputate your arm and nose.”
She says this very gravely, all while Carlisle is trying not to burst out laughing.
Since he’s the oldest in the Cullen clan, Carlisle is her favorite story teller of the past.
When he puts into perspective that he was born less than 30 years after Shakespeare died she gapes at him.
He doesn’t spend nearly as much time with little Bella, but she is his go to when the rest have to hunt.
Around him she usually regresses pretty young!
Will hold her close or bounce her on his knee just so she giggles.
Istg this whole family will do anything to see this poor girl giggle.
When Bella isn’t having the best day, he is one of the best at making her feel so loved and cared for.
