Terrible Tender Twos

Ch.1- Leaving

Bella's P.O.V.

I love my daughter and husband more than anything in this world. Renesmee is always cheerful, happy, carefree, enthusiastic, and adventuress. She has us all tied around her little fingers. By now, Renesmee looked like a two year old but with more adult like proportions. Her bronze curls hung just below her shoulders and her chocolate brown eyes glistened with joy everyday. Her rosy cheeks and brilliant smile showed us how much she was enjoying her childhood now that the Volturi were out of the picture. But along with being two, came the emotions and attitude also.

It was a little after twilight and I was sitting in the living room of the Cullen family house watching Nessie play with her new baby doll. Alice had tortured me on a shopping trip earlier that morning. Renesmee fought me about leaving her anytime. Matter of fact, she did that to everyone. She always had to know where and why we were leaving, and when we would be back. This was an even greater struggle than usual this morning....

(Earlier that morning)

It was 7:03 a.m. on Saturday, Jasper was helping Alice with her coat, Esme was sitting with Carlisle on the couch, Emmett and Rosalie were lying on the ground playing cards, and Edward was watching our daughter sleep.

"Bella? Are you ready to go? We're already late! I really need to get to the mall before all the other people show up and take everything good!" Alice whined, as usual.

"I'm coming Alice!" I loved my sister-in-law a ton but when it came to shopping, the hate over powered the love.

"I love you Edward", I said to my over protective, gorgeous, loving husband.

"Love you too sweetheart." Edward said as her helped me pull on my coat. Not that I needed it. But, normally, humans don't go outside in 35 degree weather without one.

"Make sure when Renesmee wakes up to tell her I love her." We had to be at the family house by 6 am, in order to leave by 7am, and be in Portland by 10:30 am. Edward said that we should let Ness sleep for a while longer. She had spent the whole previous day playing with Emmett, Alice, Rosalie, and Jasper while Edward and I spent some time together. Renesmee was still in her favorite purple pajamas sleeping on the couch with her pillow and blanket that Esme had personally made for her only granddaughter.

"I will. Don't worry Bella, we'll be fine. Just go shopping, have fun, and don't be out too late." I still don't understand how he could use the word shopping and fun in the same sentence.

"Ok. I'll miss you a ton though," I said as a reached on my tip-toes to kiss my husband goodbye.

"I already miss you," He said as he kissed my lips in a passionate kiss.

"Okay you two little love birds. I think we have established that you love each other and will miss one another dearly. So can we please GO?!" Alice said while motioning toward the door.

"Fine. Let's go Ali-''

"Nooooooooo! Mommy you... can't leave! Why are you... leaving me? You don't love me any more... do you?" Renesmee cried while clinging to my leg. Tears were streaming down her face and she was shaking.

"Nessie it's ok. Mommy loves you a ton. Sweetie, stop crying. Momma is just going to go shopping with Auntie Alice. I'll be back in a couple of hours. Love, please don't cry." When my daughter cried it made me feel terribly sick. I felt guilty, especially when she was crying over something I had done.

"No Mommy you can't go! You weren't even... going to tell me... you were leaving. You weren't... even...going to say... good bye!" More tears gushed down my daughters face. Her face was red and stained with tears. Her eyes were sad and she was mortified that I would leave her.

"I'll be home soon. Daddy and I just thought you should sleep a little more after your big play day yesterday. Honey I'll be back before you know it." I tried to comfort my daughter. I scooped her up and kissed her. She still cried and she looked up at me with her tear filled eyes. I wiped tears away as fast as I could.

"Mommy... what if...what if you don't come back?" Nessie asked me between sniffles and tears.

"Of course Mommy while come back. Here how about this. I will get you a present and you will get it tonight when I see you."

"No! Mommy I want to come with you!" she pouted in my arms. She stared me in the eyes with her best puppy-dog-face.

"I'm sorry sweetie but Auntie Alice and I are going by ourselves and you are going to stay her with Auntie Rose, Uncle Jazz, Uncle Emmett, Grandpa, Grandma, and Daddy." Alice had been nagging me about how we don't get enough time alone together. I didn't want to ruin our plans.

"No Mommy! I am going to go with you!!!" she had wiggled out of my arms, put her hands on her hips, and stomped on the ground.

"Renesmee Carlie Cullen! That is not acceptable behavior. I am leaving right now and you are going to stay here in time-out young lady!" I couldn't help it. A two year old shouldn't act like that to her mother and I will discipline my child when needed. By now everyone in the room was staring at Renesmee and I.

She slowly sat down right in front of my feet on the floor and put her head in her lap and cried. I couldn't stand it anymore. Every tear that fell was like a stab in my heart.

"Alice, do you think Renesmee could join us?" I whispered.

"If it will get us on the road faster, then yes of course she can come." She said is a frustrated tone.

"Renesmee, look at me.", Renesmee sniffled and then looked up at me, "If you promise to be a good girl, you can come shopping with Auntie Alice and I. Can you do that?"

"Yes Mommy!"

"Are you sorry for the way you acted?"

"Oh yes Mommy. I am truly very very vvvveeerrrryyyy sorry." She looked up at me as she wiped her eyes.

"Ok then. Go get dressed-''

"No we have to go now. Other wise there is no reason to even go shopping anymore! She'll just have to go in pajamas!" Alice said, well actually it was more yelling, but whatever.

"Ness go get your shoes. Edward, would you please get me a brush and two hair-ties pronto!" I felt like a drill sergeant.

"Ok Mama. I got my shoeies!" Renesmee brought me her purple Ugg boats. I pulled on her coat and boots while Edward brushed her hair into two pig tails.

"Alice we'll have to take the Volvo because it has Nessie's car seat and stroller." I informed my sister. She had planned to take her Porsche, but I guess plans change.

"That's fine with me as long as we leave in the next five minutes." Alice said.

We rushed out the door. After I strapped Renesmee in her car seat and put her blanket over her, she made sure she had her teddy bear, crayons, coloring book, Gold Fish, and sippy cup all in the right places. Then we were off.

Renesmee wasn't too fond of human food except a few like Gold Fish, apple juice, and yogurt. I guess you can only be happy with what life gives you. But I do agree with her; human food can be so nasty. I can't believe I at it when I was human.

Alice was now happy and bouncing in her seat while changing the radio station trying to find some pop-girly music for us to listen to for the next three and a half hours. We had just gotten onto the freeway when I heard a faint cry from the backseat

"Mommy?"

"Yes Renesmee?"

"I have to go potty."

Sometimes I feel that my bad human luck turned into bad vampire luck. The only difference was my bad human luck was normally physically, and well bad vampire luck is just about everything else.
