Chapter 1; "The Fight"

Edward and I were fighting. For months Edward and I were planning to take Renesmee to see Charlie, but the day turned out to be sunny.

"Charlie can handle it," I argued.

"Do you want to take that risk?" Countered Edward.

"If anything this should keep him safer! He's less likely to guess after this. He thinks the sun hurts vampires," I tried. Edward just thought for a moment, and I thought I had him, but then Renesmee and Jake jumped the river.

"Mabey we should take a drive," I suggested. I didn't want Renesmee somehow thinking this was her fault.

"Good idea."

Edward and I ran to the garage and Edward opened the door of the aston marton.

"I need to drive it." he said at my questioning look. "forget blending in."

Chapter two; "Cheering up Edward can prove fatal to a car."

We were speeding down the highway in silence, the forest zipping by, when I started in.

"You should have more faith in Charlie."
"It's not that I don't Bella! Please don't think that. I just don't want him to have a heart attack! He's not the only person's well being that I'm looking after. I have you to worry about to."

I was a little annoyed at that.

"You can't protect me forever. Charlie has to die some time."

"I know, but I don't want it to be soon." Maybe I'm trying too hard. Maybe you don't need me protecting you anymore." He was more speaking to himself, but his words upset me.

"I'll always need you. I just get to be superman as well as lois lane." He looked at me and smiled, but as usually happened when he was upset, it didn't touch his eyes.

"Maybe Charlie can handle this. I'm sorry I should trust your judgment more." He apologized.

"Don't apologize. You can't help it," He looked at me and I decided I was going to change that look in his eyes. I was going to cheer him up. And I was going to do it right now. I grabbed the collar of Edward's shirt and pulled his face to mine. His eyes went wide with excitement, and then his hands slipped on the wheel. Then I noticed that the car wasn't on the road anymore.

Chapter three; "what have I done?"

I looked over and Bella was gone. Where was she?!

"Bella! Bella, where are you?!" I heard a rustle outside the car.

"I'm out here!"

"Are you okay?" I exclaimed. What a stupid question; Of course she was okay. Only a vampire or a werewolf could hurt her now.

"I'm fine. I'm indestructable now, remember?"

"I know. Old habits die hard." Yet I had forgotten. How had I forgotten? I never forgot anything! Well it was also true that I was always right, before I had met her. And yet, though she had done that to me, I was in debt to her for all that she had done for me.

"I'll be out in a minute. I'm probably going to have to hurt the car some more to get out though." With that I tried to open the door on the off chance it wasn't as bad as I thought, but it was stuck, so I swiveled in my seat and kicked with both feet. The door was flung across the road. Then she was there, looking me over, checking for inuries as needlessly as my question had been.

Bella POV

I saw the car door go flying across the street, then ran to meet Edward. He was about to get out when he looked up and saw me. He paused as I looked for any injury, though I knew there wouldn't be any. Then I moved out of his way so he could get out of the wrecked car. He turned around, took one look at the wrecked car and balked.

"Oh great, there goes my perfect safety record." He joked, but I only found it slightly amusing.

"I'm sorry about your car," I apologized.

"Don't apologize Bella, It wasn't your hand that slipped." I hated it when he took total responsibility and beat himself up like that.

"Now what do we do?" I said gesturing toward the wreck. It came out a little harsh, and I saw that it hurt him. Not that he would admit it.

"I'm sorry, don't be sad."

"Don't apologize. I'm thinking of when we get home. Emmett's gonna have a field day, and Rosalie's gonna chew me out. We don't have to call anyone, Alice will have seen us by now."

Chapter four; "I love Alice."

"Don't say a word Alice." Edward growled as we slid into the back seat.

"I won't, but Rosalie will. She just put a lot of work into that."

"I know."

"I still don't see how you did it. Alice tried to explain but . . . . " Jasper said from the front seat.

"I distracted him" I wispered.

"Really? Like completely? Alice only does that to me when. . . oh. I guess I understand."

"She took me by surprise. It was unexpected, like most things she does." Edward laughed a little, and I could tell his spirits had lifted. Alice and Jasper have that kind of effect.

"I didn't want you to be sad anymore, I was trying to cheer you up." I was slightly embarrassed. If I could have blushed I would have.

"Oh, I know. It just worked a little too well." I would have been redder than a tomato.

"Oh, Charlie called, wondering where you were," It was later than I had thought. "Alice said that you were going anyway, so Jake took Renesmee and headed over."

"That's great. Now we don't have to go home." They all started laughing at my tone.

Chapter five; "Charlie learns one more thing about me he doesn't want to know."

It didn't take long to get there, being that Alice drives like Edward does, or usually does, taking into account today's events. When we got there, Charlie was in the driveway. We pulled up next to him and rolled down the windows so he could see me.

"Hey kid, how ya' been?"

"Not bad dad, you?"

"Good. Sue's been cooking for me."

"That's nice."

"I'm sorry, but Jake told me you were going to show me something that I had to be prepared for, I was wondering if you could explain."

"Are you sure you want to know dad, it only happens in the sun, so we can come back, you don't have to know."

"I want to know, plus you should come inside. So I guess I'm ready." I looked at Edward. He nodded.

"Go ahead, I'll be right behind you." With a strange sense of de ja vu, since this was so much like when I had found out about Edward, I stepped out of the car and into the sun.

Chapter six; "Charlie is one strong man."

Charlie took it well, though he gasped at first.

"Wow Bells, what did they do?" I wasn't prepared for that question, but just then everyone else got out and he looked around quizzically.

"It's a long story Charlie, and you're on a need to know basis."

"I know I said that but, . . . . Never mind. I don't think I want to know."

"Trust me, it's better this way dad." He sighed. Just then, Renesmee came running out of the house.

"MOM!"

"Hey, sweetie, having fun?"

"Yeah, Grampa's always lot's of fun, but Jake went and fell asleep. I'll have to show him a lot later." I was amused by her claim of Jake. She wasn't his, He was Hers.

"He does fall asleep a lot doesn't he? Come on, let's go inside."

Charlie had kept a lot of my old toys much to my surprise, and had given them to Renesmee to play with. Even though the toys were indestructible to human kids, I reminded her to be careful with them. We just watched her the whole afternoon, and Jake played tea party with her when he woke up. That was amusing. He told me he only did it to make it up to her for falling asleep on her, but I knew better. He's wrapped round her little fingers. When I finally noticed that it was getting late, I sighed. Edward looked at me knowingly.

"I know what you mean. I don't ever want to go home to Rosalie."

"She would only come here, and then we would have to explain to Charlie."

Alice started to laugh quietly, so it couldn't be heard by the others in the living room.

"What?' I asked.

"Nothing. Rosalie is just so hilarious when she's angry."

"I'll get you later." Edward promised.

I sighed.

Chapter seven; "Rosalie's wrath."

I braced myself for the wave of fury that I knew would be emanating from the figure in the garage. Edward had assured me that it would all be directed at him, since it was his car. I still wasn't going to let him face her alone. Jake went inside with Renesmee. Rosalie turned on Edward as soon as he walked through the door.

"HOW DARE YOU WRECK MY MASTERPIECE!!!!"

"Calm down, Rose," I heard Emmett chuckle.
"Fine. But I'm not fixing it. He'll have to get a new one."

"I Know. I doubt even you could fix it Rose." He was baiting her. He wouldn't have to buy a new car after all.

"You doubt my skills?"

"No of course not Rose! But that car was totaled.

"I'll fix it Edward!! I'll show you!!" With that she stormed off. I just shook my head.

"What?"

"You're Impossible." He just gave me a crooked smile that would have stopped my heart if he hadn't done that already.

Chapter eight; "I'm a little more violent than I used to be."

The next week was pure hell. There were endless jokes at our expense. Nobody had been worried about us. Obviously, they didn't need to be. I was starting to be get fed up with it, so when we were outside and Emmett made a comment, I hauled out and hit him. I don't know why I did, I'm usually not so violent. Edward just laughed. Emmett looked stunned and we all started laughing. He joined us, though all jokes pretty much stopped. Rosalie was missing for weeks, but when she came out, the Aston Marton was better than before it was wrecked. Things pretty much returned to normal accept that Emmett never makes jokes at my expense within my reach.
