"Love," I murmured, my voice hanging in the air, along with Bella's jagged and unnecessary breathing. "We really should stop. It's seven am. And Renesme-"but before I could finish, her sweet lips lingered over mine, just inches from my face. I was so utterly happy she was a vampire, especially now. I kissed her passionately, not like I would of if she were human. I wasn't entirely sure why the memories of her being a human lingered in my brain so strongly. It had been forty years since I had transformed her. The hardest part was when Renee and Charlie passed. I thought she would go mad. But she knew pain was coming. Mental pain, anyway. Charlie went before Renee by about four years. It took Bella about one year to recover each of their deaths, and I couldn't blame her. I never could. She had sobbed broken, tearless sobs for days on end, worrying me deeply. But she had healed now, and for that I was deeply thankful. Renesme had stopped aging finally, stopping at sixteen. It was strange, my daughter being only one year younger than me. But she looked about thirty something, which disturbed me greatly. Jacob had started growing and stopped fazing when she looked about twenty two. So they were both looking like they were about thirty, when neither of them was. Jacob, as of now, was twenty six. I shuttered to myself at the thought, remembering why Bella had interrupted me with kisses. Renesme lived with Jacob now. They were married. I kept forgetting. Or maybe I was trying to forget. I loved Jacob like a son, which technically, he was. Well, son-in-law. Close enough. But still, my own daughter, looking about ten years older than me and her mother, married and living with another creature. But I let that thought ease out of my brain, focusing on the fact that Bella and I were still kissing. And to think she thought the lust would die down. If anything, it was stronger than ever, with Nessie being out of the house. Her tongue licked my bottom lip, and it brought the memories flooding back. Well, actually, it was Bella doing this, flowing the memories through my head like a well-known lullaby. I smiled as she remembered when she had licked my bottom lip when she was human. I had tried to pull away, but she had kept me close. I frowned at the thought of pulling away now, so I kissed her and smiled when her lips understood the pattern and rhythm of mine. I was incredibly happy she didn't have to breathe. We could stay like this forever if we wanted to. It may have not been forever, but we stayed like that for quite some time. And I wasn't complaining. We were busy for several hours, until we decided to go communicate with the others. We walked to the main house, different than our old house in Forks. We had moved recently, about a month ago. Bella was very excited. Tomorrow was her first day of high school since she had become a vampire. We had decided it would be best if we disappeared for a little while, to give Bella some time to adjust. We said hello to my family, and then went off to bed. "Tomorrow's a big day for us." Bella smiled. I was so glad that she was happy.
