PreFace


Life isn't what everyone expects it to be. It could be complicated, easy, or in my case, confusing. My name is Renesmee Cullen and I am a half-vampire. Yeah, half. Not full like my mother or father. I think of myself as a freak while others think I'm unique. I'm in love with a werewolf named Jacob. Which is odd because he was once in love with my mom. Anyway, here is my story…


I woke up early on a Tuesday morning to the clatter of Bella rummaging through the refrigerator to find me something to make for my birthday breakfast. Joy. I hated birthdays just as much as she had when she was a human, yet she will go to the end of the earth to set up a perfect party for me. Not to mention Alice. Oh gosh, Alice.

I went to my personal bathroom and turned on the shower, waiting for the water to warm up before I got in. I started to go through my text messages only to find that every single person in my contact list sent me a happy birthday text. Rolling my eyes, I sent back only a few "thank yous" and stepped into the shower.

I walked into the kitchen only to find Bella covered in flour from the pancakes she was making for me.

"You know, I wouldn't of minded cereal." I laughed.

"Its your birthday, and I'm making you pancakes. Here, try them." She handed me a stack that only Jacob could finish. I looked at her, and she took some off my plate, realizing that Jacob wasn't here yet. "Sorry sweetie." She said.

"Its okay, where's dad?" I asked, stuffing my face with the amazing food.

"He went to hunt with Emmett and Carlisle. He got bored."

"Hm, odd. Dad bored? Oh well. I'm going to go get dressed for the "party" at the main house." I said, drinking the rest of my orange juice.

When I got to my room I called my best friend Leila and asked her to come over to help me pick out what I should wear to the party. In an instant she was here. She wasn't a vampire or anything like that, but she was Seth's imprint.

"Okay! Now, what we need to do first is your hair, and your makeup, then your clothes, OH and maybe your eyebrows because they look like you haven't done them in ages. Oops! Did I offend you?"

"Em, no but -"

"GOOD! Okay, now, lets get started, oh gosh, do you want to get some coffee first? You look tired! Lets run to the coffee shop, yeah run! Lets go!"

She ran out of my bedroom door and the front door. I just sat there with a smirk on my face with my arms crossed. She poked her head into the doorway.

"You forgot to come with me!" she screeched.

I laughed and told her that I wasn't in the mood for coffee. I never was a big fan of it anyway. Instead, she asked Bella to make her some as she rummaged through my huge wardrobe. Sometimes I wonder if she was Alice's sister somehow. Not vampire of course.

After 3 hours of trying on clothes, and 3 hours of constructive criticism from Leila, she finally picked out a decent outfit. A purple top with sequins around the waist, in the form of a belt, and black skinny jeans with black flats.

"I envy you," she said, looking down at her feet. "You just light up a room. Hell, you could be dressed as a hobo and still be stunning."

I walked over and sat on the bed, Bella coming in to refresh Leila's coffee.

"Its not as great as it seems. I mean, I know I'm not fully a vampire, but its still difficult." I said, snapping on my diamond bracelet Edward got me last year, on my actual seventeenth birthday. I have looked older than my actual age for a long time, so today didn't seem any different.

"I would die to be like your family. To look like you, to smell like you, to live forever like you will. I mean, I'm going to be 80 years old one day on my deathbed, and you will still look like you do today! How is that going to look on me? Or Seth.. Oh god. I'll die and he will be a mess!" She started hyperventilating, tears streaming down her cheeks. I walked over and hugged her.

"That's a long time from now. You have nothing to worry about." I quickly thought of good times me and her have had over the years, and touched her cheek. She calmed down immediately.

"I love you. You are the best friend ever." She said.

I pointed to the locket around our necks. "Forever."
