The sound of waves crashing against the shore lulled into the room. Bella turned on her side in the bed and looked into Edward's eyes.

'I want to hunt.'

Edward smiled his perfect smile. 'Is that the third or fourth time you've said that?'

'Who's counting,' Bella slinked against him. 'I can't believe you brought us back here. After the last time I assumed this place might be taboo for you. For me for that matter.'

'I thought you'd like a second honeymoon. You deserve it,' Edward said touching Bella's face. 'Besides were safe this time… there's no way you're getting pregnant again.'

Bella smirked. 'You sure about that? You know I'm still stronger than you,' she snarled, rolling on top of him and pinning him underneath her.

Edward smiled. 'Not for long, newborn.'

Bella held Edward down, laughing. 'Ohh… do something! I dare you! Who ever thought the striking Edward Cullen would get beat up by a girl?'

'Only you Mrs. Cullen.'

Bella watched him and leaned in, kissing Edward slowly. 'Don't forget it.' They kissed and moved against each other as Edward reached down and pulled the covers over them for the fifth time.

Two hours later Bella came out of the bathroom and stood watching Edward engulfed in a book. She could feel him from across the room. Feel him inside. Lingering. It was the way she had always dreamed it would be. It was their eternal love for each other. The only thing missing was Renesmee. Every time she thought of her she was overwhelmed with guilt. It wasn't like she wasn't safe. Carlisle and Esme were watching her, as were the rest of the Cullen clan.

'Do you ever worry about Renesmee?' Bella said.

Edward smiled. 'I'm thinking about her now.' He pulled a photograph from between the pages of his book and held it up. It was a picture of the three of them.

Bella shook her head. 'I just feel so guilty.'

'Don't. I miss her too. In fact I was hesitant about even leaving her and coming here. Carlisle assured me it was the right thing to do. Especially after what happened. Not to mention Jacob is never more than a hundred yards from her. However uncomfortable it makes me feel I'm still glad he watches over her. Plus you know if anything happens we'll know about it before it ever did.'

'Alice,' Bella smiled. She sauntered over to the bed and sat. 'So, are you ready to hunt?'

'Just waiting on you,' he stroked her hand.

Bella smirked. 'I'll race you.'

Edward seized her wrist and pulled her back into the bed. 'Not so fast, hotshot.'

Bella laughed. 'Really. Again? How many times is that?'

'Who's counting?' Edward softly bit her neck.

'I just want to devour you,' Bella growled.

They rolled back into their cocoon of bedding. Bella pushed herself against the headboard and grunted. Edward pulled her legs around him and spun her beneath him. He placed his lips in the cusp of her neck and gently kissed her as his cell phone rang. Both of them froze and looked over. Edward's hand flew from between the covers and grabbed his cell and answered.

'Alice? Yes. Yes. I understand. We're leaving now,' Edward gritted.

Bella flew across the room. 'What did Alice say? What's wrong with Renesmee? Tell me Edward!'

Edward pulled on his pants. 'Stay calm, Bella.'

'Stay calm!' Bella hissed, stuffing her clothes into a suitcase.

'You know Alice's visions can change. It's not what you think. Renesmee has decided to give hunting a try,' Edward said crossing the room.

'Hunting?' Bella paused.

'Let's go. Leave the bags.'
