Chapter One: Fast Forward

And I did share that bit of forever with him, but forever never lasts.

***

It must have been very late, well late if you were a human. The moon shone through the cottage window, brightening the tops of the trees. Renesmee was sound asleep in her bed Alice picked out. It was lined in silk, and the pinkest thing I've ever seen. I sighed at the thought. Sleeping was something I once knew, but the memories are fading over time.

Infact, a lot of my human instincts and personal things have slipped my memories. It is weird, since my mind can hold so many thoughts at now. This world is so much brighter, it's like my last life no one ever turned the lights on.

Edward sat on the chair beside the bed. I stood in the doorway watching. He leaned in, and lightly, if possible, kissed her on the forehead. Edward was a great father; he loved Renesmee with all his heart. And now that she was older, they would talk and he would teach her like he taught me.

He heard my coming, obviously, and looked up. We had just gotten back from a hunt, and his amber golden eyes were calm and dreamlike. He got up and moved swiftly beside me, something my human eyes wouldn't have seen. His hair was ruffled. I shut Renesmee's door behind us.

"She is so peaceful, and her dreams.." Edward sighed, "so imaginative. I bet she gets that from you, Miss. Radioactive spiders." We both chuckled, and I grabbed his hand. I was still getting used to the temperature change.

"You can't blame me, I was still in training." I whispered in his ear. He moved his lips softly to mine. If I were human, I would be as red as a fire truck. Edward pulled away.

"I have to admit, you caught on very fast, you know, for being only human." he whispered back. We walked down the hallway into the lit living room. Ironic name, but it fit the area.

Alice and Jasper had gone to Alaska. They would be back tomorrow. Rosalie had gone out hunting with Emmet and Carlisle. Only Esme was in the family home, we called it. It used to be the Cullen's home, but that changed when Edward and I moved here. We were finally alone.

"I may not be able to read your mind," Edward said, "but I'm pretty sure we're thinking along the same line." He paused and flashed a smile. "Alone time." I nodded and agreed. "Well, what would please you to do, Mrs. Cullen?" He bowed, and I laughed.

"Oh, Mr. Cullen, I'm not sure. What did you have in mind?" I asked, bowing.

"I was thinking... bed time." He smiled, and put me on his back. "Just like old times, well..." he sighed, "just not as.. painful." And with that we were off.

Our happy moment was interrupted, as it always is. Alice had come home, and was knocking at the door. Edward jumped out of the bed, and briskly got changed, as did I.

I was faster though, so I answered to Alice. I opened the door. Alice stood there, holding a box with a huge smile on her face."Alice!" I said and gave her a hug.

"Bella, oh I missed you. Alaska was great! And you'll never guess what I've found for you." She opened the box to reveal a blue dress. It had a lined color in white, and looked very expensive. Yes, Alice was definitely back.

"For me?" I asked and she nodded. I took the box. It really was beautiful. "Thank you!""Well, you know, I saw it at a store and then had to find the store." She said and I chuckled. "It really is your color." Just then, she froze sudden, and dropped her coat she was holding. I looked up at her worried.

"Alice?! What do you see?" I quickly grabbed a paper and pen from a nearby table and place it under her. She moved fast, even for a vampire, as she sketched out a drawing. She came back to reality, and we both looked down. It was a drawing of an empty bed.

By this time Edward had been by my side, already have read Alice's thoughts. He gazed down in horror at the drawing. The bed looked firmiliar, the softness of the material, the frame. I knew at once what it meant.

"Renesmee." I spoke aloud high pitched. "She'll be gone; missing." I said briskly, and very loud. I looked up at Edward. His facial expression gave way. I knew I was right.

I felt myself stiffen, and fall back into Edward. "What is happening to her?!" I yelled at the both of them. They froze in shock. Alice was the first to speak.

"It might not come true. I neve-""Tell me!" I said, getting annoyed and paranoid at the same time. Alice sighed and glanced at Edward. What was happening to my child! I wanted to scream as loud as I could, but I was afraid to wake her.

"I saw her being taken away. Being kidnapped, Bella." She said. At that, I collapsed, not even knowing it was possible to do such a thing.
