It was just about seven o'clock in the morning and I'd never felt so hyper in my life. Today was a Monday and my first day at elementary school. Mom and Dad were a bit apprehensive about my starting, because of how I grow, but Grandpa assured me that when my progression became too much I would merely transfer. I have to admit changing schools so often was going to be a bit annoying but it was better then nothing. A knock came at my door and I rushed to get it. Opening the door, it was my Uncle Jasper.
"Good morning Kiddo, I would ask how you are but I could sense excitement from the stairs." I gave him a tight hug as he spun me around,
"I
apologize. I just can't believe it's finally here. Do you think
people will like me? Will I fit in? Will anyone notice that I'm
different? What…"
"Nessie, sweetheart you're overwhelming
me and stressing out yourself. You will fit in perfectly. People will
not like you, they'll love you and as far as anyone your age is
concerned you are all different." I felt waves of calm fall over me
but I wasn't sure if it was his power or his presence. "Uncle
Jasper…" I hesitated.
"Yes?" his southern accent rolling off his tongue.
"Would
you mind coming for the drive?"
"I believe Alice and I had
planned to go hunting." My face dropped instantly, "But of course
that will have to wait. For there is not a thing in this world that
could make me miss your first day." He picked me up, threw me over
his shoulder and carried me down the stairs, my family waiting in the
living room.
"Good morning!" they called.
"Good morning everyone. Grandma did you pack my lunch like you promised?" She handed me a pink bag that matched the sweater Aunt Alice had picked out for me. I liked it I just thought it was a bit too much. Grandpa gave me a hug, whispering in my ear that we'll have to have a special time to catch up later. My face lit up when my parents stepped out from the corner and my instinct drove me to their arms. "Morning Renesmee, are you ready?" I nodded my head and was past over to my father. Who couldn't be any calmer if he were dead… pardoning the pun.
"Are
you ready for school?"
"Yes daddy. I hope you don't mind
but I asked Uncle Jasper to come. Aunt Alice, he was sorry for
interrupting your plans but-"
"Nessie it's fine, I can wait
a few moments." My dad answered also,
"Of course it isn't a problem; I may need someone to hold me up if I start crying." I lightly knocked his shoulder, knowing full well that he was making fun of me. I made my way to the car, hand being held by my Uncle. As I sat in the car, I tried my best to stay calm.
