Background: This story is based off of the Twilight series. Instead of the readers being in Bella's head the entire story, it will go back and forth between Bella and Renesmee. It will take place 7 years after the birth of Renesmee (so she will be a fully grown teenager) The Cullens and Jacob have moved to a new town, not far from Forks to start a new life.

Chapter 1

Edward placed a hand on my cheek, if I were human I would've blushed, he then leaned in and kissed my forehead. "Shall we go see Carlisle now?" he asked softly.

"Yes," I replied as I gracefully made my way across the room to the front door, "is Nessy already with Jacob?" I raised an eyebrow.

"Uh-yea, Jacob picked her up around 10." he explained to me, his face expressionless.

"That early?" I asked, "that's odd..." He just smiled at me and put his hand out, I grabbed on and we walked hand - in - hand through the woods to the Cullens house. Edward let me walk up the stairs first and he followed closely behind. He was still so protective of me, even though I had been a vampire for 7 years. He opened the door and we made our way inside.

This house was just as beatiful as their last house. The family room was warm and comforting, the kitchen was grand and stocked with all sorts of human food (that would never be eaten). 4 different bedrooms, one for Carlisle and Esmee, another for Alice and Jasper, one for Rosalie and Emmett, and a guest room that Renesmee usually stayed in when she visited. Downstairs in one room was a piano that only Edward and Renesmee knew how to play.

"Carlisle!" Edward's voice echoed through the huge house, "Carlisle? Anyone home?!"

Carlisle slowly made his way down the stairs, I don't think I'd ever seen Carlisle use his vampire speed. "Hello son," he then nodded at me, "Bella."

"Hi Carlisle," I said, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear, an old human habit of mine.

"You said you had news?" Edward sat down on one of the long white sofas.

"Ah yes," Carlisle was so calm, "We need to wait for the others tho." Just as he said that Jasper, Alice, Rosalie, Emmett, and Esmee made their way through the front door. Carlisle walked to Esmee and gently kissed her.

"And when I jumped on that deer!" Emmett was gleaming, "-come on! You have to admit that was pretty awesome!"

"Yes Emmett is was awesome!" Rosalie rolled her eyes and smiled at me, "Bella! Where is Nessy?!" I wasn't too happy that the nickname 'Nessy' had stuck, but I dealt with it.

"Oh, I think she and Jacob went for a run." I told her. Her excited smile turned into a frown, "but as soon as she comes home- I'll send her over!"

Carlisle finally spoke up, "Everyone, please sit. I have important news." Everyone sat in the large family room together, silently.

"What is it Carlisle?" Alice asked curiously, "I haven't had any visions!"

"Well I recently got a call, from a vampire named Jonathan Hardy." he began, "He and his family have just moved into the town and they wanted to meet our family." This was exciting news because for the past 7 years we had been the only vampires in this town. We didn't have many close friends, so hopefully these new vampires would become allies.

"When are they coming over?" Alice was beaming with excitement. "How many people are in their family? Oh! I'm so excited." I couldn't help but giggle at Alice, she was so child-like.

Carlisle smiled at her, "They are coming over tonight at 7. So I'd like it everyone particapated in cleaning the house. Alice if you'd care to decorate..."

She didn't let him finish his sentance, "Of course I will!" She then proceeded to leap away to her room. Everyone looked at Jasper, "I will go help her."

"Rosalie, if you could bottle some blood that would be great, they have a toddler." Carlisle asked polietly.

A smile quickly spread across her face, "of course. I'd love to do that!" She pulled Emmett away from the couch and out the front door. She didn't like killing animals, so she had Emmett do it for her.

"And Edward, if you and Bella would go home and get ready, that'd be great. Make sure you prepare Reneseme to meet new Vampires. It's been 7 years since she has met any new vampires." he reminded us.

"We will Carlisle," Edward smiled, "Come on Bella." He grabbed my hand again and we made our way out the front door.

"Bye Carlisle," I called behind me.

"Good-bye Bella" Carlisle shut the door behind us.
