Hello everyone, Carlina here. This was just an idea I had so I decided to write it. This is my first fanfiction so I would appreciate any advice I can get. There may be some little details that don´t go with the book, like they eat and stuff but I needed fillers. Sorry for any spelling mistakes... PLEASE review :)
Full Summary: Renesmee is forever frozen to stay 16. Everyone in her family thinks she has reached maturity. But has she really? To what surprise will she wake up to one normal Saturday morning? A fun and fresh story about Renesmee becoming a woman. How will a half vampire/ half human deal with normal teenage stuff and how will her family take it? Will funny Emmett tease her? Well find out. (I promise the story is way better than the summary... I just suck at them :)
Not your type of story? Who´s forcing you?
Disclamer: (I´ve always wanted to write one of these!) I do not own Twilight! That´s too bad. But I´d love to own Edward :) Anyway, I do own a copy of the books and Cleo and Leo are all mine! xD
Anyway.. On with the read folks!
Renesmee Hits Womanhood
Thank God it´s Saturday. I was starting to get a little tired of school already. Even though I have all my homework done and have completed all my assignments and essays ahead of time, I still feel like I need some time for my own.
To me, there´s nothing better than waking up on a Saturday morning to the smell of freshly made pancakes, especially when they are covered with fresh maple syrup. Uncle Emmett always brings some for me after hunting because it's my favorite. Even though I prefer animal blood way better than human food, pancakes are the only thing my mom can make me eat without any complaint whatsoever.
A couple of days ago, I started feeling a little pain under my stomach and lower back so I decided to take a steamy shower before going downstairs. I asked Carlisle about it and he told me it was nothing and that whenever it hurt too much, hot water and some rest would always help.
I picked my bronze curls up in a messy bon and undressed. The hot water did its magic and made me feel completely relaxed. I used my strawberry shower gel, which left the whole bathroom smelling like strawberries. When I was about to turn the shower off, I saw what I thought I would never see. The water was red. RED!!! Is it blood? Is it… my period? NO! It´s not possible! I´m only half human!
-"MOM!!!" I screamed to the top of my lungs.
Right away she was in my bathroom with a worried expression. "Nessie, what´s wrong?"
-"LOOK!!!"
-"Goodness gracious! Carlisle!!!"- My mom yelled so loud that I was sure Carlisle could hear it, even from the main house. I pulled my bathrobe from behind the bathroom door and put it on right before Carlisle and dad entered the bathroom at the same time.
-"Bella, Nessie what´s wrong?!?!"- Carlisle and dad said in unison. It was a little funny.
-"Carlisle, is that what I think it is?"- I asked hoping he would have a logical explanation to why I might have my… um…period.
My dad, noticing what was going on, decided to leave the room. I could figure it was a little hard for him. "I´m just going to… um… read the newspaper, yes. So you can… get some… privacy."- He stuttered.
-"I believe this is your first menstruation, Renesmee. I didn´t consider the possibility of it since you reached maturity and are to stay sixteen. I suppose it is logical since after all, you are half human. But taking in consideration that you are also a half vampire, you might loose more blood than a half human can afford. I would like for you to go to the main house with me and stay in observation," Carlisle explained with a professional tone. Then he went back to the normal, loving grandfather and gave me a tight hug before leaving the room.
This can´t be happening. I mean, it´s not like I hate it after all. All the girls in my classroom blab about it all the time and I guess I´m part of that girly thing now.
-"Renesmee! Awe!!! I´m so proud. I guess it would be inappropriate for me to say the famous cliché of `You´re a woman now` because you are half vampire too but this is so… unexpected."- My mom said after giving me a hard squeeze and a peck on the cheek. "Get dressed while I go and get you some pads."
I guess I do need those because I was starting to get all messed up. I got back inside the shower to clean up and when I finished, my mom was already back with a bag filled with all types of pads. She handed them to me with an excited look on her face. I just picked a random one and went to my closet. I put it on my underwear, just like I was taught by the health teacher in a puberty class, and got into some matching green sweats not caring about what Aunt Alice would say about it. I never thought Ms. Coronado´s class would come in handy.
When I was done, I went downstairs to eat my delicious pancakes. I was greeted by my mother with the biggest and proudest dorky smile. I guess she was really proud after all. Why? Who knows?
-"Good morning mom, dad!"
-"Good morning Nessie. Is everything… alright? Are you feeling well? Do you want to get some rest? I can call Carlisle and tell him you can stay here!" He bombarded me with all these questions while my mom just giggled. I have to admit that the worried look on his face was hilarious.
-"Dad, chillax. Its okay! I don´t feel bad at all. Besides, Carlisle looked excited about this observation thing. I´ll let him have a little fun. I know how much he likes to research." I said between giggles.
-"Fine. But if you need anything or want to come back home just call okay?"He asked with that funny, worried expression again.
-"Yes sir," I saluted after sitting down on the stool to his left on the kitchen island. Right then, my mom placed a stack of pancakes floating on maple syrup. Delicious!
-"Enjoy, sweetie. But eat quickly because we have to go to the main house. Carlisle is waiting for us."
That's all it took. The pancakes were done and the plate was washed and back in place in no time. I remembered about my pads and went back upstairs. Along with that, I packed some extra clothes and underwear inside my Gucci bag so I wouldn´t have to bother coming back or sending my mom if Carlisle needed me to stay overnight.
I went downstairs and said goodbye to my dad. My mom was already waiting for me at the door.
"Ready?" my mom asked
"Of course. Let's go"
We ran to the main house at a slower pace than usual. It was really quiet before my mom broke the silence.
"So, how are you feeling?"
"The same…" I said
"You don´t know how proud I am. I thought I was never going to have a chance to share this with you. It is always a mother´s joy to share this with their daughters and I´m so happy about it. I thought I was never going to be able to have this kind of bond with you." she said sweetly with a tearless sob. It really made me feel emotional and a tear rolled down my cheek while we both smiled. Sometimes it really sucked I was the only one in the entire family that could cry.
I saw the main house and we both started running a little faster. We made it to the front porch where Esme was waiting for us.
"Renesmee! Sweetie!!! I´m so proud! I couldn´t believe it when Carlisle told me. Please, come inside and sit down! You must be in pain!!! How are you feeling? Do you want grandma to get you something special? Ice cream perhaps?"
"No, Esme… I´m ok. Actually, I barely feel pain. But ice cream sounds good." I said as we headed to the living room.
Uncle Emmett and Uncle Jasper were playing Rockband; Uncle Emmett on the drums and Uncle Jasper with the guitar. Uncle Emmett looked away from the TV and said hello to me.
-"Wow, just when I thought my niece couldn´t get any prettier, she becomes a woman and BAM! Right away makes me double check that thought! How is my favorite niece feeling? Don´t let those hormones take over you. Bella was so annoying, you know. During "those days" I hope that´s not you…"
Why is everyone asking me how I´m feeling? I feel perfectly fine. Just when I was about to complain, Uncle Jasper interrupted.
-"We might as well have to be around her more often… to scare those little punks away… Besides it's not like she´s in extreme pain is she?" He asked looking at me instead at Uncle Jasper.
-"I´m FINE! Why does everyone keep asking me how I feel? I feel normal, I feel like playing Rockband… can I be the lead singer?" Just then I heard Esme rushing out of the kitchen with an apron on.
-"Absolutely NOT young lady! You need to get some rest… pain might start kicking in later on. Go upstairs. Alice and Rose are waiting for you there."
-"But Esme!" I complained. Why is everyone taking this so seriously? I personally think it´s no big deal.
- "Listen to your grandmother. Go upstairs and say hi to Rose and Alice for me… I´ll be helping Esme in the kitchen. And no buts."
"Yes ma´am! " I said while grabbing my bag from the couch. I figured out protesting with my mother didn´t help much at a very young age; something common teenagers usually have a hard time figuring out. Then again I don´t think a half vampire/ half human with her period is common.
I ran up the stairs and reached Aunt Alice´s door. Before I even twisted the door knob, the door opened with an extreme force while two pairs of arms grabbed me in a hard-to-breath hug bringing me inside. I was suddenly released and I was very thankful. I really thought I would pass out.
Before me, stood my two Aunts with a proud expression similar to the one my mom whore this morning. We stood there in silence, none of us saying a word. Then Aunt Rose hugged me tightly and gave a soft peck on the cheek.
-"Nessie, I can´t believe this. My little baby is a woman now! This is really important in a young lady´s life!" She said with a tearless, but happy sob. I always loved how Aunt Rose referred to me as her baby. I thought it was cute. That´s when I started getting all emotional for the second time today.
- "Thanks Aunt Rose," was all I managed to get out.
-"Oh come on! This is so exciting! Don´t get all sentimental on me you two! Now, the most important thing for you to know is that you should always carry a sweater with you just in case. You can wrap it around your waist in many different ways. And most important of all, it MUST match your outfit. Next weekend we can go sweater shopping so you can have some variety!" Aunt Alice blabbed with her squeaky voice.
- "How about we have a girls night in and watch some movies while Renesmee eats anything she likes and we celebrate?!?" Aunt Rose proposed.
-"Sounds cool…" I agreed.
-"I´ll go get some movies from the TV room. Want anything to eat while watching the movie Nessie?"
-"Um, yeah… Esme offered some ice cream. So I want that, some Dr. Pepper, and Doritos please."
-"Okay! This is so cool!" she said bouncing up and down while she stormed out of the room. Aunt Alice always loved girl´s night in even though I was the only one who ate all of the junk food. Sometimes it was weird eating all by myself since they felt repulsed by human food, but they said they didn't mind as long as I liked it.
-"Renesmee, I put some extra pads in the bathroom for you just in case you need them, okay?" Aunt Rose told me.
-"Thanks…" I said. That was so considerate of her. Right then Aunt Alice came back with a massive bowl of Doritos and an even bigger one with cookie dough ice cream, my favorite. Not to mention the six pack of Dr. Pepper and about thirty different colored sweaters and a dozen movies.
-"Aunt Alice, do you honestly think I will eat all of that?"
-"Well… you don´t have to but we´re celebrating!"
-"So, what are we watching then?" I asked
-"Whatever you want. I brought John Tucker Must Die, 13 going on 30, The Devil Wears Prada, Just My Luck, Prom Night, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Bring It On, Stick It, In Her Shoes, P.S. I Love You, Mean Girls, and Penelope."
-"I´ll go for 13 going on 30 first and then John Tucker Must Die," I said. As soon as I said that, Aunt Alice popped 13 going on 30 inside the DVD. Aunt Rose turned the lights off and we each grabbed a bean bag. I grabbed a can of Dr. Pepper and the bowl of Doritos before sitting down. Aunt Alice grabbed the ice cream in her hands so it wouldn´t melt. (A/N: We all know that makes sense since vampires are ice cold.) The movie started and Aunt Alice squealed in excitement. We all giggled when the girl in the movie said she saw her boyfriend´s "thingy."
I was having so much fun when Carlisle came in. "Renesmee, I would like for you let me know if you need a pain reliever or start feeling dizzy. The dizziness might mean you´re loosing too much blood and I would need to take you to the hospital. I will be in my office doing some research about your case. "
-"Okay," I said. That was very awkward.
We continued watching the movie. When that one ended, Aunt Rose stood up and put John Tucker Must Die next. After that, we saw more movies and Aunt Alice showed me about the "sweater trick" and about how important it was for me to carry one. Hours passed quickly when suddenly, Esme came in and told us we would be going to a restaurant for dinner to celebrate and that we should start getting ready. That was my doom.
Suddenly, Aunt Alice´s eyes lit up. And I knew what that meant. It meant Barbie Renesmee. Not good.
-"NO way!"- I exclaimed, emphasizing on the NO to get my point straight.
"Oh yeah baby!"
"Ugh! You guys are impossible!"- I said disgusted because I knew what Oh yeah baby meant. It meant there was no point in having this conversation because they would win anyway.
-"We know!" They said in unison with the most wicked, smug grin I´ve seen. It was almost scary.
-"Now, use my bathroom to take a quick shower while Rose and I set everything up. And by quick, I mean quick."- Aunt Alice squealed the last part. She was so into this.
So I grabbed my bag (thank god I brought extra stuff) and went to the bathroom. I took a quick shower, just as I was told, and put on some underwear and sweats. When I came outside, the entire dresser was filled with curling irons, hair accessories, makeup and a gorgeous metallic gray cocktail dress. It had an empire waist with low back, spaghetti straps, and a bubble hem. (Dress link in profile)
-"It´s… gorgeous! Where did you get that?"
-"Well, a week ago, I had a vision about us going out for dinner but the reason was unknown. So… I bought this dress for you just in case! Isn´t it lovely?!?"- Aunt Alice said with the same wide grin on her face.
-"It´s perfect, I love it!"- I said while I took my seat in front of the dresser. Better face the unbearable now, right?
Aunt Alice did my makeup and Aunt Rose did my hair. Since I knew this was going to take forever, I grabbed a copy of Seventeen Magazine and started reading it. It wasn´t long before I was scolded by Aunt Rose because "I wasn´t focusing."
-"That is messing up my creation. Drop it or it will become shreds." She said coldly. She was usually really sweet except when she was in the middle of a hair do.
-"Fine! What I´m I supposed to do if you guys are taking like for-"
-"Don´t talk! I can´t do your makeup if you keep talking! We are almost done!" Aunt Alice interrupted me. Can´t I even talk?
Thirty minutes later, they were done. Aunt Rose helped me into the dress so I wouldn´t mess up my hair. I had matching heels and clutch; both were the same tone of the dress. I looked at my reflection in the mirror and was shocked. They really did an amazing job. The dress was very flirty and about 7 cm. above my knee. My makeup was simple and I had my hair up in a bun. I supposed we were going somewhere really fancy.
-"You can go on and finish the movie while Rose and I get ready. Everyone is waiting for us downstairs. We won´t take long," Aunt Alice said.
I re-took my seat in the bean bag and continued watching the movie. A little later, my mom came in looking beautiful.
-"Oh my god! Renesmee you look adorable! That dress is great on you! Look at you all dressed up!"
-"Thanks mom, "I said, probably all blushed.
-"Well, let´s go."
I turned off the DVD and closed the door before leaving. Just as I was going down the stairs, I saw uncle Jasper´s, uncle Emmett´s, and my dad´s jaw drop and then tighten.
-"Renesmee, don´t get me wrong. You look very beautiful tonight, I have to say, but I belief you are not old enough to go out like that. It is very provocative, especially with boys these days," my dad said.
-"Edward! Don´t even think about it. She is not going to change. Stop being so overprotective and let the girl be! And if you want her to take it off, you´ll have to do it over my burned body parts torn apart!" (A/N: I was going to write "over my dead body" but considering she´s already dead, and we all know how a vamp "dies", that sounded more rational. Lol)
-"Rose, I know how hard you worked on her tonight, but I have to agree with Edward. And hey, let´s face it, he´s the mind reader here. Not me. He gets to read all those sick perv´s minds all day," Uncle Emmett said and my dad groaned.
-"Emmett, shut up! She´s going out like this. No more arguments!" Aunt Alice said. And with that, we all left.
We took the Volvo while Aunt Rosalie and Uncle Emmett took the jeep, Aunt Alice and Uncle Jasper took the yellow Porsche, and Carlisle and Esme took the Mercedes. The streets were very crowded so we had to drive at human speed, which sucked and took us way longer.
When we finally arrived, I saw this super fancy restaurant called Starless. The decoration was very retro and the light was very dim. There were candles in every table. Suddenly, a waiter approached.
-"Welcome to Starless, my name is Leo, how can I help you?" he asked more to me than to everyone. I noticed he looked at me a little bit longer than I would have preferred.
-"Yes, we have a reservation under the name Cullen" my dad said rather coldly but yet, polite. I guess he noticed too.
Leo took us to our table where we all took our seats. I sat next to my dad just so he would feel a little more comfortable. I started to wonder what Leo was thinking about me since my dad was suddenly in such a bad mood.
A female waiter came this time which made my dad more comfortable. Her name tag said Cleo. We all ordered and in no time, our food was ready.
-"Do you need anything else?" Cleo asked before leaving the table.
-"In fact, yes. We would like two bottles of Don Perigñon. We are going to toast," my dad said.
-"I´ll be right back," she said.
After a couple of minutes and some really bad jokes, Cleo came back with two trays, both packed with Champaign glasses. We were each handed one.
-"The reason we are here tonight, is the celebration of something very important in this family. Our love and adoration, Renesmee, is now a young adult, so this is a reason for celebration. I´d like to toast for this wonderful daughter, for which I would give away my soul if I had one or if I had to. Cheers!" my dad hugged me. I felt how a tear was streaming down my cheek.
-"Wait! I want to say something," Uncle Emmett interrupted, "and for the only person left in this family who I can still make blush. Well, half-blush." He said with a wink towards me. We were all having a great time and every one burst out laughing at Uncle Emmett´s addition to the toast except for me. Can you guess what I did? Yeah, I blushed.
So! that´s it folks. Hope you liked it. I hate to beg for reviews but I love them! So please, review, review, and review again! Remeber, if I get a good response from you guys, I might as well continue writing it and forget about the one-shot thing. YOU HAVE THE POWER! Lol... Besides, reviewing only takes a minute. Make my day :) Xoxo,
Carlina...
