At the end of "Breaking Dawn," Stephenie Meyer left Renesmee undeveloped. I decided to write a story about her, Bella, Edward and all of Renesmee's friends in their Junior Year of High School. **Enjoy!**
And please—R&R!! REVIEW!! REVIEW!! REVIEW!!
On That Half Note…
Bella got home as tired as she could possibly be.
"What made today so tiring?" Edward asked Bella, him being a very observant person.
Bella sighed. Renesmee, who was doing her homework, she looked up to see her mother standing in the door. She immediately jumped up and gave Bella a hug which was returned by Bella herself. Renesmee had no greater joy then to please her parents, for when she pleased them it made it more likely that she would get what she wants.
"Well, you remember Tanya right?" Bella asked Edward, when she said Tanya's name he noticed a change in her features…
"Yes," He responded in a toneless voice, who could forget that little brat? He thought to himself.
"So, what's wrong with her?" He asked only a little too surprised to find that she was the source of the problem. After all Bella and Tanya had been friends since they met.
"Well, she came in today saying her clothes didn't fit correctly…" Bella started but then stopped.
"Well? Do they fit her? If not, what's wrong with them?" Edward asked.
Wow, Bella thought He always had to get to the bottom of things.
"Well, the clothes don't fit her because she keeps buying the size 4 instead of 6!" Bella exclaimed, "and now she is planning on coming over to have a fitting…" Bella didn't finish.
"WHAT!?!?" Edward asked incredulously, "What do you mean she's coming over?"
"I told her to listen and pay attention to numbers ok? And then she goes all 'No! I won't and you are going to have a fitting with me this weekend' and I was like I can't do that for personal reasons, and she said 'make it work!' then stormed out," Bella explained.
"Well, I'm glad you put her in her place Bella, but inviting her over for the weekend?" He asked devastated, they had, had wonderful plans for that weekend until he found out Tanya was coming.
"But Edward, Darling, this company is Alice's I'm only the CEO of Cullen Inc." She said.
"I never said you weren't," Edward replied coolly.
"Then why on earth are you suggesting that I have to do the fitting? Alice is perfectly capable!" Bella said.
"Technically she's not, she isn't here…" Edward reminded her calmly.
"Oh," Bella had forgotten for a whole ten seconds about Alice being gone, she had placed her in charge until she got back, "Yeah… I remember now."
"But, even if she were here it wouldn't be her job to fit people," Edward sighed, "It wouldn't even be your job. But, I'm guessing that Tanya needs to talk to you. So that's why she demanded that you do the fitting for her."
"Oh, that could just be it…" Bella agreed slowly. Finally she walked on over to Edward, gave him a hug and a kiss, then sat down next to Renesmee to help her with her homework.
~*~*~
"Wow! What a day!" Bella said as Edward and she were sitting in the living room while Renesmee slept in her little bedroom, it was just big enough to hold a bed and dresser with a little extra space left over.
"Yes, What a day!" Edward agreed, but he only stayed at home during the day the tiring part was when Renesmee came home at 4:00 each day. Finally it was 10:00 at night and Edward got up to leave.
"Must you leave now?" Bella asked, sadly.
"The Police Station needs people that work at night and I'm more of a night person anyways, so, I still need to go." Edward responded.
"OK, I will be right here or in the big house, waiting…" She told him as she received a kiss and hug from Edward.
"Good. You won't wait long. I can tell tonight won't be busy," He told her as he listened to thoughts in the distance, "But, someone is coming to visit you, so, be careful."
"I will!" Bella told him as he left.
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat! The door was being knocked at… Bella wondered if she should answer it. She decided that she could—plus she is a vampire!
Bella walked over to the door and opened it to a black hooded and cloaked person. Bella gasped, she couldn't believe it! The person uncloaked their face to show strawberry-blonde hair that flowed gently around her face which held two large, round, bright blue eyes. Was it really? She had to be dreaming.
"Andrea!" Bella exclaimed as she gave her childhood friend a hug, "I can't believe it!"
"Wow! Bella, your so beautiful!" Andrea responded.
"I'm not. You're the one that's beautiful! Look at your lovely face! I can't even believe it's you Andrea!" Bella contradicted and exclaimed overjoyed.
"Bella! Really! I'm not that pretty," Andrea contradicted her friend but Bella shushed her. If anyone was pretty it was Andrea.
"How did you find me Andrea?" Bella asked suddenly confused, the cottage was hidden by the giant glass house.
"Well, first I went to the glass house up there owned by a family called the… Cullen's, is that their name?" She asked then continued, "Well, a blonde young lady answered the door and I asked where Bella Swan lived. The young lady exchanged glances with a blonde man and then told me, near the edge of the woods, in a cottage."
"Really?" Bella asked surprised, she was wondering why Rosalie would help anyone find her.
"That was nice of Rosalie…" Bella commented.
"Oh, was that her name?" Andrea asked.
"Yeah, it was Rosalie," Bella responded, "But I wonder why she helped you…"
"Well, anyways here I am!" Andrea said with a confused look then a grin and another hug.
"Oh! It's wonderful to have you here Andrea!" Bella said. Then she wondered if she should tell her she was married.
"You know how they glanced at each other…" Bella started then stopped.
"Yeah…" Andrea said waiting for Bella to finish.
"Well, they looked like that because you called me Bella 'Swan.' My last name is Cullen now, because I married Edward Cullen, my name would be 'Isabella Marie Swan Cullen'," Bella told Andrea.
"Oh! Really!?! I'm so happy for you!" She said.
"Shhh! My daughter is sleeping," Bella told Andrea.
"Oh, how long have you been married?" Andrea asked.
"Ummm, I would say one year or one year and twelve months," Bella replied bending the truth a little while in actuality it had only been about 3 months.
"Oh! That's wonderful! I wish I could have come to the wedding Bella!" Andrea said—out of everyone that lived in Arizona Andrea had been the most likely to miss Bella when Bella moved.
"I wish you had been there too! It was wonderful!" Bella said as she pulled a hoodie on over her curled hair and plain white T-shirt—Alice had picked out all of her outfits for all the days that she wasn't going to be there. Finally Bella had her hoodie on and was wearing her rain boots that were fuzzy on the inside.
"Let's walk around for a little bit," Bella suggested as she walked outside slowly into the night.
Andrea looked at her curiously and then said, "But, Bella I came to visit you and now you want to walk around—outside—at night?"
"Well, yeah. Unless…" Bella got caught up in her thoughts.
"Unless what? Bella?" Andrea asked waving her hand in front of Bella's face.
"Oh! Well, I was wondering if you were afraid of the dark," Bella explained.
"Oh, well, I sort of am afraid of the dark—I mean I believe in all of the scary stories that say vampires and werewolves exist and I don't want to accidentally run into one," Andrea confided in Bella.
"Ahhh!" Bella said with understanding—little did Andrea know she was in the company of a vampire right now; and would be joined by five more, plus two half human, half vampire children, "Ok, we will at least walk up to the house though… Ok?"
"Ok…" Andrea slowly agreed.
Bella started towards the house and Andrea quickly caught up to her speed by jogging.
"Must you walk so fast Bella?" Andrea panted.
"Well, this is where your staying tonight since Edward and I only have a bedroom for us and one for Renesmee—my daughter," Bella responded, "So, we need to let the Cullen's know that you will be staying there—or would you prefer staying at Charlie's?"
"I would like to stay as close as possible to you so I can eat my meals with you," Andrea responded indignantly.
"Ok! Ok!" Bella quickly agreed, "No need to get hasty! I was only asking."
"Ok! Good!" Andrea said while she beamed at Bella, they were almost to the back door now.
"So, who are these people… anyways?" Andrea asked slowly.
"Well technically they are my family, but that's because I married Edward. I thought for sure that you would understand that!" Bella exclaimed looking at Andrea as she hesitated over opening the door. Too late! Time to decide was officially over now, because the door flew open to reveal small, petite, black-spiky haired, Alice.
"Bella! Andrea!" Alice said as though she had known Andrea her whole life, "I'm so glad you're here! We were just about to start watching 'The Princess and the Pirate.' (Seriously I love this movie!) I was on my way to get you when you were already at the door!"
"That's wonderful Alice!" Bella exclaimed, to Alice's pleasure then Alice started looking around outside.
"Where is Edward?" She asked politely as she came to stand by Bella once more.
"Well… there was a late call from the office so he had to go," Bella responded sadly, "He won't be watching the movie tonight."
"Oh, Ok. Well come on help yourselves to anything you want! The fridge is open to anyone that wants food!" Alice exclaimed happily.
"Ok. Thank you Alice!" Bella said.
"Yes, thanks Alice!" Andrea said as she gave Alice a huge smile—Andrea could tell this was one great family.
Once Alice had left to go put the movie in Andrea breathed out. It finally came to Bella's attention that her friend had been holding her breath, but whatever for? Bella gave her a strange look and Andrea just lifted her hands in surrender.
"So, how did this—Alice—person? Know my name?" Andrea asked slowly trying to piece together the puzzle of The Cullen's.
"Oh, well Alice is really good at figuring out names of people and such!" Bella told her.
"Are you sure? Because this family is an awful lot like a family of vampires I read about online…" Andrea said, "In fact. You even look like a vampire."
"What do you mean?" Bella asked.
"Well, I have just been making connections slowly with my brain that you look an awful lot like the description of a vampire that I have read about," She walked on over to the fridge to look for something to eat and when she opened the door she saw the bottles of red liquid, "Is… that… blood?"
Yes, Bella cursed herself why did they keep it in plain sight? Did Alice think that Andrea already knew or was Alice seeing the future as Andrea becoming one of them? Oh no! Bella cleared her throat, "No, that is punch that we are saving for a party."
"Oh, can I have some?" Andrea asked she really was dying of thirst.
"Ummm, not right now maybe a little later," Or a lot! Bella thought. My gosh! I can't believe Alice!
"Well is there anything to eat that goes well with water than? I'm not seeing orange juice, milk, or any type of drink other than water and the punch that we can't have right now. Are there any solid foods?"
"Ummm, I believe that their pantry is over there stocked full with food." Bella responded absent-mindedly working on cleaning the kitchen.
Andrea walked over to the pantry and opened it, inside there were so many foods that she couldn't pick one and became full from looking at everything.
"Wow!" Andrea exclaimed, "This is amazing!"
"Yeah," Phew! Bella thought she believes were normal now… hopefully, "It sure is!"
Andrea and Bella made their way into the living room and they sat down on one of the many couches in that huge room. They were all there except for Edward and Carlisle—but they were working.
Emmett was sitting on one of the large recliners in the room and then he said, "Has anyone noticed that were in a living room but nothing in here is living?"
Everyone sat there for a minute digesting this idea and then started laughing except for Bella and Andrea. Emmett sensed something was happening and he motioned for Bella to follow him, she did.
"EMMETT! Ugh! I can't believe you! My friend is out there and she is HUMAN! HUMAN! Emmett, HUMAN!" Bella exclaimed only quiet enough for Emmett and Her to hear.
"I didn't know Bella! I swear I didn't know!" He said knowing what was coming to him, when all of a sudden the back door blew open everyone screamed because this is what Edward had warned against…
