Renesmee's POV.
I watched as the remaining elk bounded away, the leaves scattering in their wake. I clenched my arms around the neck of elk I had captured and leaned towards the pulsing beat coming from its neck, and sank my teeth into it. I could feel the hot blood rush down my throat. Immediately, the burning in my throat faded. I breathed in the air and turned to the sound of heavy footsteps thumping towards me.
"Hey Uncle Emmett, I'm done!"
He lifted his hand and swept it across his mouth, miming wiping his mouth. He didn't need to, we Cullen's hunted spotlessly. I could see a pile of deer lying on the ground having been Emmett's dinner. I didn't need to hunt that often, or that much, with me being only half-vampire I could eat food as well. However my craving for blood was not satisfied by animals. When I needed to hunt, I loved going with my uncle Emmett, he let me try to tackle my own prey, but Momma and Daddy are very protective of me.
"C'mon Nessie, lets head home."
The sun suddenly escaped the clouds, and Uncle Emmett's skin began to sparkle. This always amazed me and I reached out to touch the sparkles. I held out my own arm and watched it produce a slight glow which seemed to change colors in the light, mine was not overly odd, humans eyesight isn't the best so it's easy to blame it on a trick of the light on my white skin. I could be exposed to humans in the sun, unlike my vampire family.
There were a lot of things I could do that my vampire family can't. I can sleep and eat. I can go to the toilet, but nowhere near as often as humans. I danced around Emmett, flicking my long curls over him. He flung me onto his back and began to run.
"Nessie, Nessie, your a slow little vampire."
"Sorry I can't run like the speed of sound, and I am only half-vampire," I corrected him.
"Same difference Nes, your practically human pace to me."
I scowled at him even though he couldn't see. My speed was only half as fast as his, and my daddy could outrun us easily.
"Uncle Emmett, can we go to the cottage and see Momma and Daddy?"
He gave a booming laugh.
"Nessie love, I really don't think now would be a good time to walk in on them , you'd regret it," he said.
I shook my curls, not really understanding, but blushing anyway. Uncle Emmett loved it when I blushed, it reminded him of when my Momma was a human and he could make her blush to embarrass her. I don't know much about my Momma and Daddy's life before me, but Auntie Alice sometimes tells me stories like that. I know both my auntie's and uncle's stories on meetings, but nothing about my Mommas.
We arrived at the beautiful house of our family. I ran in at my speed and Auntie Rosalie was standing with Auntie Alice, and they were talking at a speed so fast, I knew it must be something really exciting. They were so engrossed they didn't notice me enter, so I waited patiently. Soon, Auntie Alice screamed.
"RENESMEE! You're going to high school!"
I stopped, and my mouth dropped open. I blinked stupidly until it sank in. Auntie Rose came and flicked my chin so my mouth shut. My high shriek filled the room. Obviously an effect of spending so much time with Alice, I sounded like her now.
"Oh my gosh, this is amazing! I honestly can't believe this. You two are the best Auntie's ever!" I laughed. "I'll have friends, and lessons, and lunch with humans!"
"Now Nessie, how many times do I need to tell you, we don't eat humans." Uncle Jasper said this as we came whirling down the stairs, a sarcastic tone of his voice. I poked you my tongue to him, he knew what I meant.
"I had to come down to see why everyone was suddenly feeling excited and hyper," he continued looking at Alice questionably. It was hopeless; she was in another rush of speech with Rosalie.
I couldn't contain my happiness; I mean how many five year olds go to high school? I may be technically five, but mentally and physically I was about sixteen. I can speak seven languages for goodness sake! I got up and started dancing around, thinking of school. A thought popped into my head, but I didn't have time to finish saying it, because my lovable auntie butted in.
"Now Nessie, not to be the bossy Auntie, but go away so we can discuss party plans," said Alice.
I groaned. This party is going to be big. It's silly; I'm the only one who actually eats, so they'll probably make a massive amount of food for me only. Or else they will make a blood filled cake. I inherited this from my Momma, my dislike of parties. Well, my auntie's version of parties. Rosalie and Alice began talking again, so I went up to my room to phone my best friend, Jacob. I dialed his number and the sound of his voice soothed me, like I had no troubles in the world, so peaceful. Jacob had this effect on me. I needed him, he was my very best friend who's been there since well, since forever I guess.
"Oh my god, Jake! Guess what! I'm going to high school. Wow, it will be so weird hanging out with normal people!"
There was a short silence where Jacob's breathing became a bit faster, and when he replied his voice was oddly strained and sour.
"Wow, Nessie, that's amazing. You'll make loads of new best friends, I'm so happy for you."
"Jake, you're my very best friend and no one will ever change that or replace you, I love you too much! Even if you do turn into a big dog," I laughed.
"I love you more Nessie," Jacob whispered. He said something I couldn't quite catch; he might have been saying it to himself. Old Billy's making burgers for me, I'm starved honey, but I'll come see you tomorrow. Wouldn't miss your birthday party, would I?
"You better not! Okay, come over as soon as you can." I laughed, "Bye Jake, love you loads.
I closed my eyes and lay back on the bed, I wouldn't worry about the party now, all I could think about was school. It was going to be amazing, I knew it.
