This is The Cullens life after Breaking Dawn

Chapter One Second Honeymoon
Bella

"Edward", I said, "are you sure you want to do this?"

"Of course, Bella. We haven't had a vacation or a decent amount of alone time since our honeymoon", he said. Edward wanted to take a trip around the world because now, Renesmee could handle being away from us since she had the body of a sixteen-year-old, and the maturity of a twenty-year-old. In reality, she was only nine years old. She hadn't grown anymore after her seventh birthday, as was expected, but she should have grown bigger. She was about as tall as Alice now. But human girls usually reached full maturity at around sixteen years of age, so I shouldn't have had anything to worry about. But I still didn't like leaving her for long periods of time. What with all the near- death experiences, and the danger a few years ago, I guess I just never fully got over it.

"Hmm… Well what would Ness—"

He cut me off. "She has Jacob, Remember?"

"Of course", I said "But…"

"And Esme and Alice and Rosalie", he insisted.

I thought about that for a moment. Yes, it seemed she would be happy here by herself…. Or at least, act like she was.

"Well, can we talk to her about this, first?" I asked him.

"I already did, but okay."

"Wait, you already talked to her?"

"Yes, and she said that she was fine with it and that she wanted us to have some time together. Believe me I know this." He tapped his temple and smiled my favorite crooked smile at me. I smiled and then sighed.

"Well, I guess some alone time doesn't sound like such a terrible idea", I told him. Actually, I'd been yearning for some for quite a while. There just weren't enough hours in the night to satisfy my personal needs. Yes, now, time with my husband became a necessity.

"See? I told you", he said, and started to kiss me. It started out as a playful kiss that steadily got stronger and more passionate by the minute. I wanted it to last forever, and now, more time with Edward sounded better than ever. Then I was the one who had to slow it down a notch, and then stop it.

"Nessie will wake up soon", I said and slid off the large white bed onto the floor. I walked into the massive closet and, since I still hadn't yet mastered the art of sniffing out casual clothing, picked out the closest thing to casual I could find. It was a strange day today because the sun was shining for once, and I wanted to wear some summer-like clothes on such an occasion, even though the sun would sparkle off me like I was covered in diamonds and I would stay inside most of the time. I put on a pair of black shorts and a strappy dark purple silk tank top with various little patterns on it. Then I looked in the mirror and decided that the shorts were too much. It was probably only about sixty degrees out today, even though I wouldn't notice. So, I found some denim, just not the kind I like wearing, not the faded, baggy-with-holes-blue jeans, but dark, low-rise, tight skinny jeans. I put on some flats that were the same shade of purple as my shirt, and walked out.

I walked over to Edward, who was kind of casual too. He was wearing an ivory button down shirt with the first few top buttons undone. I frowned. At least he was able to find some reasonable blue jeans. I didn't want to ask him for help, because I should have gotten how to find them by now. Not to mention I should have been practicing.

"Can I talk to Renesmee?" I asked, "I just don't want to settle this big trip without speaking to her about it first", I told him.

"It's fine by me", he said. So I walked into my daughter's bedroom where she was already dressed, in front of the mirror combing her hair.

"Good morning Nessie", I said, and she turned around to look at me, her brown eyes sparkling.

"'Morning, Mom", she said, her voice cheery while she smiled at me.

"Let me do that", I offered, and she handed me the comb. I gently pulled it through the waves and curls of her bronze colored hair.

"Thanks Mom, I've been having trouble getting the back of my head. My hair's so long now! It drives me insane sometimes" she told me. Her hair was down to her hips now. I could see why it would be annoying her.

"Hmm… well that is a problem. Do you think you'd want to cut it?" I actually couldn't bear the thought of cutting it, but if it was causing her trouble, maybe I could afford a few inches.

"Do you really think Aunt Alice would let you within a ten mile radius with a scissors?" She asked.

We both looked at each other for a moment.

"Nope" we both said at the same time, and then laughed.

"Ness, listen. I understand your father has already told you about this—"

She cut me off.

"Oh, your big vacation." She said.

"Yes", I responded. "Are you okay with us being away from you for a long time? I mean, it won't even be a really long time it can only be a couple weeks, three at the most—"
She interrupted me again.

"Mom, Dad already asked me about this. I'm completely fine with the whole thing. I don't mind being alone here. In fact, Alice will be here the whole time. And don't forget Jacob. I won't be alone at all. You have nothing to worry about. I just want you and Dad to be happy. As long as you're happy, I'm happy."

"So, you're completely fine with the whole thing?" I asked.

"Sure, sure", she said. "As I've already established so far"

I smiled at the phrase she picked up from Jacob.

"I guess I'm just being a paranoid parent"

"Yup", she agreed, and we both smiled.

"Your dad wants to leave tonight. Is that too soon?" I asked.

"Not at all." She said, "In fact, Alice will probably want to plan a slumber party tonight and have girl time. It's all gonna' work out just fine"

"Okay", I said, "I'll have to start packing soon"

"Already done", she said with a smile. "Alice knew what you were planning before you and Dad discussed it", she clarified.

I smiled. She reminded me of Alice in so many ways as well.

"Well", I said, "I guess we have nothing else to do here. Let's go see every one else at their house", I offered, and we linked hands and walked out of the room together.
