Chapter Two

I ran Renesmee's bath water and sat on the edge of the tub, thinking about Edward. God I miss him. I wish he could have been there for Renesmee. To watch her grow from an infant to a toddler. I wish he was here for her.

I undressed my little princess and put her in the tub. I watched her as she laughed and played. I'm so blessed to have such a healthy beautiful little girl like her. She is the only thing that keeps me going.

I got her out after about thirty or so minutes of her playing and splashing. "Lets get you dressed baby so you can go to the store with mommy, ok?" she nodded her little head, wrapped her towel tight around her little body, and ran straight to her bedroom. I dressed her in black shirt with white sleeves and black leggings, along with her black ankle boots.

"Do I look pwetty momma?" I smiled at her I love how she mixes her R's with W's. It was so adorable.

"Yes babygirl you always look pretty." I scooped her up and put her in her toddler seat and strapped her in. We drove to the store, Renesmee singing along with the radio the whole way making me laugh and smile. As I parked the car I saw a silver Volvo that reminded me of Edward. Damn him for what he did. Damn him for leaving me. I cant regret him tough, for he gave me the greatest gift in the world. He gave me that beautiful little girl of mine, and for that I'll always be grateful.

We walked in hand-in-hand. I grabbed a buggy and put her in the kiddy seat, buckling her in. While looking at the sales paper I bumped into someone, "oh, I'm so sorry, I..." I stopped mid sentence when I saw who it was, Edward Cullen, the father of my little bronze haired girl. I looked from Renesmee to him, then did it again. She looked so much like him, he was bound to notice.

"Bella?" he said, his eyes locked with mine, all my old feelings came rushing back full force. The love I have for him, the strong urge to run up and hug him. He looked good. God I miss him. He looked me up and down, I guess soaking in my presence.

Renesmee snapped me out of it when she started tugging on my shirt. "Momma, who's your fwiend?" thats when he realized. He looked at Renesmee, then at me, and back again.

"Edward, would you like to come have dinner with us? There is something I need to talk to you about." I stared at him, daring him to say no when it was obvious what I needed to tell him. He nodded, not taking his eyes off of Renesmee. We finished our shopping and headed to the house with Edward following us.

"Renesmee, honey, why don't you go play while I start dinner, ok babygirl?" She nodded and ran towards her room.

Edward waited till she was out of sight then turned to me, "how old is she?" Getting straight to the point.

"She is 27 months, 2 years and 5 months to be exact.", no point in freaking out.

"But then that means...why the hell didn't you tell me Bella? How could you keep her from me?", he shouted, startling me a little.

"Ok one, keep your voice down, Nessie is in the other room. For two, I didn't keep her from you. I couldn't get a hold of you, hell even dad tried. It was like you fell off the face of the Earth! Don't blame me when you're the one who left, you cut your phone off. Your family wouldn't talk to me, how the hell was I suppose to tell you, telepathy? This isnt my fault Edward."

"She doesn't know I'm her dad, does she?" He looked so upset, not like his usually happy, go lucky self.

"Well don't you think it would have been a little awkward if she would have said, 'Hi, I'm your daughter, Renesmee. Mommy tells me you left, why'd you leave daddy?' don't you think. No, of course she doesn't." I answered sarcastically. He jumped back in surprise, hurt washing over his face. "Look, I'm sorry. I'm just upset right now. You've been gone for 3 years and now your back and I have to explain to Renesmee who you are and where you've been all this time. Where have you been Edward? Why'd you leave me?" Tears fell down my face. Just before he could answer, Renesmee came out.

"Mommy, is dinner weady yet, I'm stuper hungry." She came up and tugged on my pants. "Mommy!" I looked down at her and patted her head.

"Almost baby, go watch tv and I'll call for you when its done." she smiled and nodded then ran to the livingroom to watch the little mermaid. "Look we will talk about this later, right now you need to focus on getting to know your daughter. Hope you like spaghetti, its her favorite.", he nodded the went and sat on the other end of the couch, watching the disney movie with our babygirl. What a beautiful sight.
