So, I thought I would post this because I am currently having writers block on my long story 'Across the Alley'. If you haven't tried it out, I would strongly suggest you do. I kind of thought in my mind that the truth wouldn't remain a secret from Charlie. I hope that SM wouldn't do that to Bella's loving father. Anyways enjoy.
"Honey, can you come here for a moment?" Sue Clearwater-Swan called her husband of two years, Charlie.
She heard Charlie get up from his desk upstairs, and come downstairs. Sue was not looking forward to the coming conversation.
"Is everything okay, Sue?" Charlie asked, concern filling his voice.
"Edward, Bella and Jake have been talking, and they came to a decision."
"Where are they moving now?"
"They are not moving, but this is something that they felt best if you knew, and I was the one who told you. Please sit down."
"Is everything okay? Jake hasn't been hurt again has he?" Always thinking about others. Sue loved her husband for that.
"Nobody is hurt, stop guessing. You won't guess correctly."
"Would you like to explain what is going on."
"You understand that the legends are real. At least the werewolf legends are. You understand that the gene that causes the shape shifting, is activated when the cold-ones come around. Have you ever wondered who the cold-ones are?"
"You have called them blood suckers, so I assume they're like our fictional vampires. Right?" Charlie asked.
Sue nodded. Like Bella, Charlie understood lots of things. "Charlie, all the legends are real. Vampires are real, and the Cullens are vampires."
"Bella, is she one as well?" Charlie's eye's where wide with fear, even though Bella had been a vampire close to four years.
"She has been one since she had Renesmee. Nessie, literally killed Bella the human, and Edward refused to lose her, so he chose to make her a vampire.
"Vampires are very real, and you have to understand that to continue in your life, our life, Bella had to make the decision to either tell you, or pretend that she died. She isn't aging, but you knew that, but the thing is, she will never age, she will remain18 for the rest of her existence."
"She won't die, than?"
"Her, Edward, Nessie, and Jake will not be dying in the seeable future. Although someday Jake will pass on, if he ever decided to stop shifting from man to wolf, but for Nessies sake, he is going to try and stay a shifter forever."
"What do you mean? For Nessies sake?"
"Long story, I promise to explain that sometime else, when I have Jake or Sam who really understand what imprinting is."
"One more question, how old is Edward"
"Seventeen."
"How long has he been seventeen?"
"I am not telling you, you'll blow things out of proportion. Just understand that your daughter loves him more than life itself. In their case, love transcends age. Go call Bella and talk about this, she can answer your questions better than I can."
Charlie nodded, and went upstairs to call his daughter. At least nothing had gotten broken, but Sue wasn't about to tell Charlie that Edward was over a hundred years old. Let Bella and Edward deal with that one.
