I looked at the confusion in Edward's face and walked next to him.
"Edward? What's wrong?" I asked him.
He shook his head and moved toward his cell phone. He took it out and looked at me. Then he started texting someone. Texting? I've never seem him do that. I guess he very didn't want me to hear.
"Edward!" I complained. "Tell me!"
He looked over at me and sighed. "Carlisle's coming home. I want him to look at the…bag." It seemed he did not want to call it bag. Odd for him.
Just then the front door opened and Carlisle came through the door. He looked a little confused and walked over to stand next to Edward. He gave him a confused look.
"It's in the backyard." Edward answered Carlisle's unspoken question. Carlisle nodded and ran out the window of the kitchen in that way those only vampires could.
I looked at Edward for a few seconds, and then raced after Carlisle out the window. He was standing over that bag and moving it through his hands slowly, his eyebrows raised.
I walked over to him and raised my eyebrows. He moved his honey colored eyes from the bag to mine. I felt some happiness. At least already did his hunting today and I didn't ruin it all.
"Carlisle?" I asked, moving closer to him. "What is it?"
He looked at me and sighed. Of course he would always tell me. It was just him. I smiled inwardly. Good old Carlisle.
"We found some vampires on our hunt…" He trailed off.
"…And?" I questioned. I sensed that whatever it was it was not a good thing.
He sighed and continued. "There were some vampires up in Canada…Well…There were, at least. They were…Not looking like us." He looked up at me, then kept talking, looking as if he did not want to say it but knew he had to. "They were…human. And they were…dead."
I shook my head. I was confused and I was surprised. I did not get this. Ugh, this is so not my day.
"What? How is that possible?" I yelped.
"It isn't." Edward said, walking out into the yard in a slow stride for him. That cool guy style, you might call it. Only the fact that Edward did not care about being thought of as cool really ruined the effect. He looked a little confused. Interesting. A confused Edward. Of course, I might have thought this was a marble moment in any other time period but now I wanted answers. Quick and fast.
Carlisle turned to face him and shook his head. "We're going to have to get help on this."
"But…How?" I asked, completely lost. Who are we going to get to help us? All I could think of were other vampires around here, but I'm not sure if they'd be very willing.
"I'm going to get the others." Carlisle announced. "Edward you go get some of our friends. Now. And Bella…I guess you should…Go comfort Renesmee. She's pretty upset that Jacob has to leave."
Oh. Renesmee! I had forgot about her in the last few minutes problems. Now I had to go find my daughter. But I had one more question.
"Carlisle?"
"Yes Bella?" I heard his soft voice as I walked up the stairs. Sometimes having amazing hearing did help, I thought. We could be hundreds of feet away and still talk to each other.
"What does the bag have to do with this?" I wondered.
I could hear him sigh. Wow. Awesome hearing. I can't believe I was complementing my own hearing at a time like this.
"The smell of it, Bella. It has the same smell. I don't know, but we're not taking any chances on this…You smell like the bag also."
"What?!"
"Bella. Calm down. We're going to figure this out. Now go talk to Nessie now…Tell her Grandpa says 'hello'." He replied, with a small smile.
I nodded slowly and tried to calm myself. I knocked on Edward and my child's door and tried to put a smile on my face. I could hear Edward going through the phone books downstairs. He must be trying to call them, I thought.
Renesmee opened the door with that amazing smile.
"Mommy!" She said in a sweet childlike voice.
I felt a little better. My daughter, my baby is with me right now. It's going to be fine.
She came over and gave me a hug and started replaying some of the sweet times she had with Jacob today, but then sensed something was wrong.
"Momma…" She put on the cute child concerned face. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, dear. Nothing. It's going to be okay." I smiled at her and she calmed. Good, I thought. Keep her happy. Then I remembered what Carlisle had said to me as I was coming to the door.
I set her down on her bed and took her little hand. "Nessie. Grandpa wants me to send his love." I smiled at her even more. I was feeling way better. Downstairs I could hear Edward hanging up the phone and getting in the car. A few seconds later I heard the car speeding down the road going God knows what speed.
She smiled a proud smile, then looked confused. She replayed me the scene when I was forcing Edward to go hunting, saying that I'll go tomorrow. And when he said he and the family were getting home around 5pm. Oh. She was wondering why they're home so early. Nothing more, I smiled to myself. I love being around kids.
"Oh, Honey. They got done early so they came home to be with you." I poked her little nose.
"Me? Yes!" She did her little happy dance, but then she finally calmed and looked at me questionably again. Little children and their endless questions. "Momma…Where's Daddy?"
"Oh, Daddy's visiting some friends. He'll be back soon."
"Okay…" She nodded and pulled out a stuffed doll. "Look what Jake got for me! I named him Jacob!"
I nodded and smiled. "Ah, That's sweet."
Edward's coming home, I told myself. He's going to come home and we're going to have a sweet night tonight and It will all turn out to be a misunderstanding…At least I hoped it would be. I sighed and watched as Renesmee showed me other toys she got while I put up a plastic smile.
