Life after Breaking Dawn

Chapter One

Edward grabbed the stroller as I pulled Renesmee out the door. We were planning to do our usual walk around the park and then be picked up by either Jacob or Alice. Edward held the stroller as Renesmee and I raced each other to the park. Only minutes later we were there, I placed Renesmee on the seat and Edward started pushing it along. We reached the park and as Renesmee raced off to play on the swings and slides, I looked around at the families around. By far we were the youngest here.

Just as I Renesmee tugged my hand telling me that she wanted me to push her, runner came up from the woods. I stared at him. He looked just like my ex-boyfriend, Mason from Phoenix, my home town. His hair was shorter than before and was a darker brown. I continued staring until Edward reached for my hand.

'You're blocking me out again,' he whispered, 'Are you okay?'

'I'm fine,' I whispered back.

I followed Renesmee before she pulled my arm out with such force and started pushing the swing. I lightly pushed the swing so that she was air born. Just as I did the third push, someone tapped me on the shoulder. Thinking that it was a mother wanting to use the swing or Edward, I swivelled around and faced the Mason look-a-like.

'Izzy? I thought it was you,' he said in a deep voice.

'Mason?' I said.

His eyes weren't the same as they were they were nearly black and he had changed he had look darker maybe even evil. I stared at him as he stared back.

'You look so different!' he exclaimed as he hugged me.

I was surprised at how strong he was, he hugged me nearly as tight as Renesmee did. I pulled back to see that Edward was standing right beside me holding Renesmee.

'Oh! Hi, sorry! Are you babysitting because she looks just like you, or-' he started saying, he always talked too much.

'She's our daughter,' Edward said cutting him off, 'Bella, would you like to introduce him?'

'Oh, right. Edward, this is Mason, my ex-boyfriend from Pheonix. Mason, this is Edward my husband and my daughter, Renesmee,' I explained.

Edward and Mason shook hands while Renesmee look on.

'Well, hello there! You look as beautiful as your mother!' he said sweetly at her.

Renesmee's hair hadn't had a haircut yet, so it came down to her waist in small ringlets flowing down her back. As Mason said that, Renesmee scrambled toward me, I picked her up and she gave me another vision. This time it was scaring. I saw flashes of all the vampires Edward and his family fought against only a month ago.

I came to and both guys were staring at me. I whispered in her ear to show her daddy and she held out her hand to him. Only seconds later he pulled away.

'So tell me about yourself. Why'd you come here?' Edward said formally.

'I actually came here to find Izzy, here!' Mason said.

'I see,' Edward looked at his watch, 'Well, we better get going. Don't want to be late for dinner!'

I stumbled after Edward and waved goodbye to Mason. I let Renesmee down from my arms and let her hold my hand. This time, no visions came.

'I assumed from your and his expression that he was one of your boyfriends?' Edward asked.

'Yeah, he is. He was the last one before you!' I said
