Dear Reader,
This is my first story, and I would just like to say THANK YOU to anyone who takes the time to read this. I will be posting another chapter that dives into the actual story as soon as possible, but thought it imperative to give some back story. As any writer on here should express I do not own the characters that the fabulous Stephanie Meyer has made.
I stood in the full length mirror examining the work Aunt Alice was consuming herself in. I was transfixed on her dark pixie cut hair popping up at every angle faster than any human eye could catch. One of the traits I loved most about Aunt Alice was the amount of passion she threw into everything she did. I heard her sigh, and looked up at her beautiful smiling face. "Well, Ness, do you like it?" Just as I was about to open my mouth, "Of course you do. I knew you would!" Smiling contently with herself she went back to fussing over the already perfect garment. I smiled despite my annoyance at her. She knew I hated when she answered her own questioned; just cause she already knew the answer! Her gift of seeing the future tends to make a lot of our conversations one sided. It's like talking to Yoda. She was right though, I did love the dress. She made it for my 7 birthday! Even if I looked 17 to the world, I have only physically been placed on this earth for 7 short years.
"I fear you don't know just how short they were to me and you Mother." Dad smooth voice chimed in on my thought as he walked in. Poor Dad can hear every thought anyone is thinking{except for my Mom's thoughts, she is a shield}. I used to spend forever trying to avoid it then it dawned on me, my poor dad has to listen to all my thoughts. It's a lose/lose situation for us both.
"Don't worry Daddy it's not like we don't have forever." I said very sarcastically. Cause me and my whole family literally did have forever. My family is made up of an elite clan on vegetarian vampires. This means they drink only animal blood. It's a very rare and extremely hard lifestyle to maintain. In fact the Cullen clan is the only one to do so. This is the reason my family has gold eyes instead of the blood red one most vampires sport.
"Renesmee you know what I mean." He was right I did. He and my mother just celebrate their 7th wedding anniversary 3 months ago. They had gotten married in my grandparent's back yard, and then went to my grandmother's island for their honeymoon where they had accidently conceived me. {Yes, island, as in my Grandfather gave my Grandma Esme an island for her wedding gift. My family has acquired quite a bit of wealth in their long lives and they don't exactly hide it.} They cut their honeymoon short because I was causing my human mother a lot of problems very quickly. To put it simply I was killing her slowly in front of their eyes. You see they didn't know I was even possible. Vampires can't have children. This is true, sort of, vampire can sire a child not give birth to a child. For this he needs a human. Unfortunately the pregnancy is often too much to bare cause they aren't normally babies. The pregnancy itself last for three months. The birth was too much for my Mother, Bella. So after the birth my Father turned her himself. Not much is known on my kind. We grow at an extremely fast rate till the "Halfling" reaches 7 then we stop aging. I'm not sure what happens after that. There are only a few like me, but hey I got loving family and amazing friends from the reservation to help me get through whatever may come my way. "Renesmee," my father's voice broke my thought, "you should call Alice back in here to help you out of that. Jake is almost here for you." And just at that moment Alice walked in with a change of clothes for me, of course she "already knew" she was needed.
