Edward's POV:
It was time to leave Forks. We had lived here for six years now, and Carlisle looked nowhere near thirty. Bella was going to break it to Charlie today. I hugged Renesmee good-bye. She was growing so fast; it had almost two years since she was born and she already looked five. Her golden curls bounced below her waist as she ran out the door at a faster-than-human pace. I smiled and turned to Bella. She had that crease on her forehead again, so I knew she was nervous.
"Everything will be fine," I whispered in her ear. She nodded and hurried to catch up with Renesmee. Although I would never admit it to Bella, I was nervous for Charlie too. It would be hard without him around. I loved him as if he were my own father. Jacob, however, I would have been glad to leave behind. It's too bad he has that whole imprinting excuse. I guess he's alright though. Renesmee's taste in guys was almost as good as her mothers. I chuckled at my private little joke and Alice looked at me curiously.
What's so funny, Edward? She thought.
"Nothing" I answered.
Whatever. She thought as she glided toward Jasper. They had just "woken up", so they were exceptionally happy.
I glanced toward the garage and saw that Bella and Renesmee were just leaving. I walked outside to watch them leave. I smiled as I heard Renesmee squeal.
"Daddy!" she screamed as they drove away. I stood there in silent awe as I thought of how wonderful my life (or I guess I should say existence) was. I hope it stays this way.
Renesmee's POV:
Mommy says that we have to leave Forks soon. She told me it's because my family doesn't look right anymore, but I think it's my fault. So what if they're not growing, they're adults. I'm the one who's growing too fast. I told Jakey how I felt, but he told me not to worry. Then I made him promise not to let Daddy hear him thinking about this.
Mommy also says that once we move away, I have to start going to school. Jakey told me that it's fun but he dropped out so it couldn't have been that great.
We're finally at Grandpa's. Mommy looks worried.
"Don't worry," I told her. She sighed and hugged me.
"Let's go inside!" she exclaimed in a too cheerful voice.
We rang the doorbell and Grandpa came to greet us. Mommy told him to sit down; she had something important to tell him.
"Okay, Bells," he said. He was trying not to show it, but I could tell he was anxious.
"Dad," Mommy whispered, "we're moving." She had the fakest smile in the world on her face. Grandpa burst into tears and cuddled me closer to him. Then it hit me. We were really moving. I might never see Grandpa again. All of the sudden, tears filled my eyes and I covered my face as I wept.
Mommy squeezed my hand and said, "Oh guys, please don't cry. We'll visit you whenever we can. I promise." I knew better than to believe her. Charlie and I sobbed for hours. When we finally stopped, Mommy said we had to go. Grandpa and I hugged. I blew him a kiss over Mommy's shoulder as we left the house. Mommy looked devastated and her feet were dragging even though she could never be tired. I took a deep breath and we left the house.
Edward's POV:
The car turned in as I sprinted toward the garage. Renesmee's tear-filled eyes and splotchy red face made me want to stay right here in Forks forever. I turned toward Bella and saw that she looked like she was on the verge of tears (which was amazing since crying is impossible for us vampires). We walk toward the house in silence and stayed that way until we were back in our cozy little cottage. As Bella sang Renesmee to sleep, I waited in our bedroom. When Bella slumped into our room, she was as sad as ever. She once again focused hard on removing her shield and replayed to me the events of the day. It was deathly quiet as I watched Renesmee and Charlie weeping side by side. Bella's shield suddenly snapped back into place; she must have seen the agonized look on my face and realized that I had had enough.
