Chapter 2.- Confusion, Isle Esme and Genius'

BPOV

Whilst Edward and I were stood in the clearing, watching Nessie feed, I felt slightly lost. In the sense that, I didn't know how to help Edward today. So I did the only thing I could think of. I lifted my shield, put it around Renesmee, and let Edward hear my thoughts. I let him hear how I was worried about him, and what he was thinking, and how I wished I knew how to help him. He stood still, listening for a few moments, then he turned to face me, and I let my shield come back, just as he put both of his hands onto my face, and he softly kissed my cheek. If I still had a heartbeat it would of stopped dead for the millionth time when he smiled at me before joining Renesmee.

It was times like this I was grateful to Eleazar and Kate for helping me realise I had a shield and for helping me use it. And over the past year I had taught myself to expand it out and leave it there, the longest I had left my shield out for was 6 hours and 37 minutes, then Edward came home and I lost all my concentration...

When Edward and Renesmee were finished feeding, we headed back up to the house, walking at a human pace as we usually did when we were all together alone. Just as we walked in, Alice ran to me with a look of horror on her face, instantly I mirrored the look on her face and asked her what was wrong.

"You're wearing the same clothes you went home in last night!" Alice exclaimed. I looked down sheepishly at the jeans and blue jersey top I was still wearing.

"Oh...yeah. Oops?" I looked at Alice and turned around back to the cottage to change, I knew if I didn't I'd never hear the last of it. Alice always insisted I looked my best. I heard Edward chuckle behind me at some unheard thought, probably from Emmett.

Once I was back at the cottage I changed into a white cotton shirt and khaki combat pants. Something I rarely wore so it was sure to please Alice. I headed back to the house just as Charlie and Sue were walking into the house. Charlie already had Renesmee in his arms, it was pretty hard to separate the two of them once he arrived. When he saw me, he almost ran to me and hugged me.

"I'm so happy to see you Bell's, it feels like I haven't seen you in weeks! And its only been 6 days! I've been working so hard on this new case that time flies by so quickly..." Charlie sighed at me, like he thought he was missing out on me growing up, but he knew he would never miss that, not now anyway...

I smiled at Edward when he walked in with a tray of coffee's, some of Renesmee's favourite biscuits and herbal tea for Sue. Those biscuits were almost the only human food she would eat, and even then she would only eat them when Charlie was here.

When everyone was settled, I looked around at my family, which included Sue now, and I felt so happy, like I did every weekend when I looked at this same picture. Charlie was making a fuss of Renesmee and pretending to eat all of her biscuits, Sue was chatting with Esme about recipe's and how Seth was settling in at Fork's high, Leah had graduated a few months ago from the high school on the reservation. Emmett, Jasper, Rose, Edward and Jacob watched a football game on the television, Alice stood next to Jasper but she was concentrating on the future, which she sometimes did out of boredom. Carlisle was at work but was due home in the next hour or so, which meant we had to wait to hear the news from Charlie.

Although I was sure Alice and Edward knew anyway, and I had silently guessed it, I had no way of knowing if I was right until Charlie told me.

"Mom, can you put my favourite song on please?" Renesmee asked me from across the room.

"Oh yes! Let's hear it, I kind of fancy a little boogy!" Charlie laughed and attempted a sit down half dance, which made Renesmee giggle loudly, and me laugh at the two of them.

We spent the next hour listening to music from Renesmee's Ipod and to Edward's compositions as he played the piano for us. When Carlisle arrived home he went straight to Charlie and shook his hand, then gave Sue a light peck on her cheek. I couldn't help but notice how Sue was still not 100% comfortable when she was here with us all, but it was a big improvement from a year ago I had to admit.

"Well..." Charlie piped up, "I suppose now that Carlisle is home, it's time to tell you all our news!" It was impossible to miss the huge grin he wore as he said that. I chanced a quick look around the room, everyone but Alice and Edward look eager to hear the news, although they tried to fake it, it proved to me they already knew. Just as I was about to look back to Charlie, I saw a little smile flirt on the corners of Edward's lips...and from across the room, Alice looked at him with a shocked yet elated expression, then worked hard on composing her face before anyone saw.

"Sue and I, are getting married!" Charlie threw his arm out as if expecting a big, bear hug, and wrapped the other arm around Sue's waist. Renesmee squealed with delight and hugged Charlie instantly, while everyone else patted them on the back, said their congratulations, shook their hands and gave them slight kisses on their cheeks.

Next to me, Edward's grip on my waist tightened, and I realised I hadn't moved, or said congratulations... I was frozen to the spot.

"You're wearing the same clothes you went home in last night!" Alice almost shouted at Bella.

Bella looked down to the clothes she was still wearing, rather sheepishly, although to me she looked beautiful, she was did.

"Oh...yeah. Oops?" It sounded more like a question, but nonetheless Bella turned around and went to get to changed.

"Alice is gonna get yaaaaaa! Maybe one day we should empty all of Bella's closet and fill it with pre-worn clothes, Alice would have a heart attack!...If she could." Emmett laughed heartily at his own thoughts and I laughed too, although not quite as loud.

When I heard Charlie's cruiser pulling into the lane that led to the driveway, I headed to the kitchen to put the pot off coffee on and to boil some water for Sue's herbal tea. She was still on this new diet kick, all she thought about recently was calories this, and calories that, and how many pounds she had to lose to fit into that dress she wanted for her wedding.

Sometimes her thoughts drifted back to a month ago when Charlie had asked Sue to marry him, and she had delayed answering him. I saw from her thoughts that she worried she was betraying Harry's memory, by marrying one of his best friend's, so she had asked Harry for a sign. Something to let her know it was OK to accept his proposal. And she got it, in the form of 7 white feathers on Harry's chair in the lounge. 7 being his lucky number of course, sent Sue straight back to Charlie to accept. And through her thoughts, I saw how happy Charlie was when she accepted.

But there was always one more thing that bothered me slightly whenever Sue visited with Charlie. And that was the fact that she was never truly comfortable being here, she knew everything like Charlie did obviously, but she also knew we had to leave sometime soon, and that it would break Charlie's heart if we went too far away. Sue loved and cared for Charlie so much, that she didn't want to get too attached or...comfortable in our company, so that she could be there for him when it eventually happened. That made me ecstatically happy, for Bella, myself and for Renesmee, that Charlie had someone to help take care of him.

By the time I had stopped being so engrossed in my thoughts for Charlie's well being, and I had played my compositions, Charlie was about to announce his news. And I got a sudden flash of inspiration. Esme's Island. Me and Bella could buy the tickets, send Charlie and Sue there for a month, maybe longer, maybe shorter, it would depend on them, and of course I'd need Esme's permission but I couldn't see her denying the request. It would be their perfect honeymoon, just like it was mine and Bella's.

As I finished my thoughts of Esme's Island, Alice's thoughts suddenly shouted at me..

"EDWARD! YOU ARE A GENIUS!" and I saw her vision, Charlie and Sue walking down the Aisle, then at the reception receiving our gift, then boarding a plane to Esme's Island... and I couldn't wait to tell Bella.

Bella...She hadn't moved...Charlie had just told her he was marrying Sue, and Bella had frozen. I gently squeezed her around the waist, but she still didn't move. "Bella..." I whispered into her ear. Suddenly, she looked at me with a big grin on her face, walked over to Charlie and Sue, congratulated them, and sat with them to discuss wedding details.

I was more than confused...
