Chapter 2
"Good morning Bells!" Charlie greeted me.
"Good morning" I replied. "Hello mom, when did you get in?" I asked.
"Oh what time was it. I would say around diner time yesterday. Sorry I never came by to see you, I was busy unpacking my things into your old room." I guess my mom was staying in my old room, I guess that made sense considering the house Charlie has had since I was born consisted of two bedroom and one bath.
"Oh that's alright mom, I understand." I was actually relieved that she was busy. Imagine my mom walking into the Cullen's house all happy when I was flipping out at Jacob then Alice had her vision. Oh wow that would've been very hard to try to explain, just think me saying; 'Oh yeah mom, I forgot to tell you, I'm married to a vampire, he also has a sister who can see into the future and we just found out there is a coven of vampires trying to kill your granddaughter.' That would've gone over well.
"Bells, you want some breakfast?" Charlie asked pulling me out of my train of thought.
"Umm, a muffin would be great, thanks." I replied. Charlie showed me the tray of muffins. All I could see was a big blur of what seemed to resemble five muffins on a clear plastic tray. Wearing the contacts around humans doesn't really work for me. Edward had said that newborns have to wear them whenever they are close to humans in case the humans notice their red eyes. All the Cullens said that its only one year until my eyes turn a golden color like theirs, I guess I'm going to have to say good-bye to my contacts soon!
I bit into the muffin. I remember Edward telling my something about vampires eating human food would be like humans only eating tofu or something like that. He was right, I couldn't even figure out what flavor the muffin was. I faked that I liked it and said 'Mmm its really good' to Charlie.
I said my good-byes to Renesmee, Renee and Charlie saying that I would be back in a little while to pick her up. The second I got outside and started driving, I pulled over threw up my muffin. I rinsed my mouth with some water from an old water bottle I had in my car from Renesmee and proceeded to spit out that water too.
I drove to Jacob's, curious as to what Edward might have gotten me for our anniversary. I thought it over many times hoping he didn't get me anything too expensive. God, who am I kidding, Edward not getting me something expensive? We were talking about the guy who bought me two cars a before and after, the guy who gave me the heirloom engagement ring previously owned by his mom.
I thought over what I would say to Jacob. 'Hey, sorry about what I said yesterday, but you see the thing is, I need you and your wolf friends to come and help us kill the 'Royal' vampire coven.' No, that won't work, maybe something nicer. Oh well, I guess it will just have to be a on the spot kind of thing.
I was about five minutes away from Jacob's. I decided to take out those dreadful contacts. I was just pulling up to the Blacks' house when I saw Jacob running off into the forest. I quickly pulled into Billy's driveway got out and ran after Jacob. After a few seconds I was right next to him.
"What did you come here to yell at me some more?"
"No, I came here to apologize. I'm very sorry that I yelled at you. I took out all my anger on you, and that was wrong of me. I'm sorry Jacob, can you please accept my apology?"
"Yeah Bella, its fine, I do that a lot too."
"Well then why did you run away when you seen my car?"
"Because I wanted to make sure that you truthfully came here to apologize, not just came to say sorry because it's the right thing to do."
"Well, how would you know?"
"Because you see Bella, if you really wanted to come here to meaningfully apologize, then you would've followed me, but if you just came here to say that you are sorry, then you would've just told Billy to get me to call you."
"Well I suppose that's one way of figuring it out."
"Yup, it is. So do you want to hang out? Maybe go cliff diving?"
"Well Jacob that sounds great, but actually, I came here to ask you something too."
"Okay what is it?"
"You know how we were contemplating whether or not to fight the Volturi. Well Carlisle said that it would be useless to stay here and not do anything about it. So we decided to fight them."
"WHAT? Bella how could you? Just yesterday you were saying that Nessie was in danger. Well by fighting you are putting her in more danger, possible death!"
" Well yes, if just vampires were to fight the Volturi everyone would die. But Carlisle said that if we had the pack on our side, then we would still have a chance."
"Oh."
"Yeah."
"So that's what you wanted to ask? You wanted to ask if we would help fight vampires? Really Bella, I thought you knew me better than that."
"I knew you wouldn't do it. I never should've came. I'm not surprised that you don't want to risk your life and the . . ." Jacob cut me off.
"Bella you have got to be kidding me! Of course we would help you guys, remember the good bonding time we all had the last time." Jacob snickered.
"Oh yes, that was great bonding time." I said sarcastically.
"Seriously Bella, we would definitely help you. Here lets just go see Sam just to clear everything up for him."
"Hey Jacob, Bella, what's up?" Sam greeted us.
"Hey Sam, umm Jacob has something to tell you." I replied.
"Gee, thanks for that Bella." Jacob laughed.
"What's wrong Jacob? Is it about that fight you and Bella had yesterday?"
"No. Well sort of. You see, yesterday Bella and I were fighting because this group of vampires are coming to try to kill Nessie."
"Again?"
"Yes. Except this time its because of me imprinting on her." Jacob explained.
"Oh."
"Yeah, so they kinda need help trying to fight those guys and I offered our assistance."
"Well that's great, we haven't had a good vampire meal in a while now." Sam joked while bearing his teeth.
"So, its alright with you?" I asked Sam.
"Yes, that's perfect. When will they becoming, and who else will be fighting?"
"Not sure, and hopefully all the other covens of vampires." I replied.
"Okay, well just tell Jacob and he can come and tell me."
"Okay thanks Sam you guys will be helping out a lot." I thanked Sam and Jacob for helping me figure out his part. Now off to the music store in Seattle for Edward's anniversary gift.
Hmmm… he has Debussy, but does he have the golden record…Hmmm come to think of it I don't think he even has a record player. I'll get him this record player and a few golden records.
"Hello Miss, did you find everything you were looking for today?" the store clerk asked.
"Hello, yes I did thanks." I stayed looking down at whatever I could so the store clerk wouldn't see my eyes.
"Okay, your total comes to $369.74"
"Cash please." I opened up my wallet and gave the man $369.74 out of the $1000 I took out for today. I asked the man if I could hold it here for a little bit while I called Jacob to bring his truck to take back to the Cullens'.
"What's the event?" Jacob asked while we loaded the record player into the back of his truck.
"Our anniversary." I replied.
Jacob never said anything until we go back to my house.
"Umm, Jake, can you distract Edward while I put this in the house?"
"How am I supposed to do that?" He asked.
"I don't know, just don't think of it, or say it."
"Fine." He agreed.
I ran into the house holding the box in my arms hid it in the very back of my closet and ran back out.
"Thanks Jake."
"Sure Bella. See you later." He answered.
I wonder what got him so grumpy. Since I said that it was our anniversary he has been grumpy. I know that he was against me becoming a vampire so he was against our wedding, but he should've gotten over it by now.
"Edward, I'm going to pick Renesmee up from Charlie's. I'll be back in a few minutes."
"Okay. I'll see you tonight at our own little celebration." He winked.
I giggled then drove off to get Renesmee. When I arrived at Charlie's, there was a note on the door saying;
Hey Bells,
Your mom and I went to the hospital with Renesmee. She got a weird rash. Don't worry everything will be fine; after all we do have the best doctor around as my daughter's father-in-law.
Meet you there Bells.
Charlie
I ran into my car and sped off to the hospital. While driving I quickly called Edward to meet us there.
When I got into the hospital I saw Charlie and Renee sitting in the waiting area without Renesmee. I panicked, walked torwards them at a human pace and asked them where she was. They said for me to calm down and that she is in the ER with Carlisle. This was so not a rash. This was bad.
