Author Note
To answer questions yes I am Canadian, I thought I would start out somewhere semi familiar but they will be moving around a lot. I am open to locations (If you suggest one can you tell me what their school system is like. It is so confusing to me!) And I'm sorry if my chapters are short and I don't write a lot but I am way busy and there will be a lot of chapters if this goes well. Oh and I decided that Renesmee can show herself memories as well, just to make things that much better.
Chapter 3 – New Home, New People to Deal With
POV – Jasper
The first day in a new house is always a field of emotions. Everyone is feeling something different and of course Carlisle expects me to calm them all down. What if I am excited too? Either way I tried my best.
Edward was a wreck on the plane, alert at every minute, eyes darting from Bella to Renesmee to Emma. Then he would ask the flight attendant if the flight was going as planned. I think after about ten times she avoided our side of the plane.
Both Rosalie and Esme were worrying about Emma. She seemed to be the highlight of attention, which wasn't a surprise. The rest of them were relatively calm, for the most part that is. A little burst of excitement from Alice here and there but I wouldn't have that any other way.
Out cars were waiting for us in the parking lot. Edward still had that same silver Volvo. He had already had three different engines put in and soon would be his fourth. Every time one of us tried to get him to trade it in he would say it was vintage. Then we would sigh and walk away. Never bother anyone in this house about their car choice. Some of us (Emmett) learned the hard way.
The house was the regular for us. A mansion on the ocean, well it wasn't like there wasn't a house on the ocean, PEI being as small as it is. Alice scooped Emma up to show her room, which was done, in complete pink the way that Alice likes it, well for Emma's room anyways. I heard her gasp upstairs in delight. She loved pink. Alice was squealing along with her. Yes a new house was fun until we got enrolled in school.
I sighed and enjoyed the moment. Every one was racing to their rooms, some for reasons I didn't really want to know about. I heard Renesmee walking up the stairs slowly taking everything in I presume. I followed her up into her room.
"What do you want Jasper?" she asked with out turning around. She was looking out her window onto the ocean.
"Shouldn't that be uncle Jasper to you?" I joked.
"I'd rather not…" she said quietly, she let her sentence trail off. She seemed to do that a lot lately. The whole energy around her was sadness, which wasn't anything new. She had never been the same since Jacob was no longer around. We all knew better then to ask her what was wrong, we all of course knew the answer but it always seemed like the right thing to say. She always walked away, or ran if we were outside.
I watched her touch her hand to her heart lightly. Remembering him I presumed. She got a bit calmer but the same as before. "Renesmee do you want to take a look around the island?" I asked.
She took her arm away and actually turned to face me, that was rare even after ten years without him. "I'd rather not." She whispered. I turned to leave but then she spoke again. "But you can do one thing for me." She whispered. I turned around once more. "Could you… make me happy, just for a minute?" she asked takeing a step towards me. "Please?"
"You need to be willing." I said. Of course she already knew that.
"I can try."
I tried my best to change her energy. She closed her eyes and she was instantly at peace. Not exactly happy, but defiantly not as sad as she was. When she finally told me to stop she asked just one more thing. "Just tell my parents that I'll be okay." She whispered.
"You should tell them yourself." I whispered low enough for Bella and Edward not to hear. Renesmee looked down. "I will." I promised. She gave a small smile as I walked out of the room.
I found my way to Alice and my room. It was a dark green with cream accents. I told Alice if she made our room any colour that was too bright I would never go in. Apparently she got the message.
I could hear Alice in the hallway coming towards out room when the doorbell rang. I came walking out and Alice had a blank expression on her face. I grabbed her hand until she came out of it. It wasn't long but long enough that the door was already answered. Neighbours.
Alice and I peered over the balcony over the front hallway looking at them. A woman and her husband stood there. They seemed rather nice.
"They won't cause any harm," she whispered in my ear. That's what she had seen then. Edward came up behind us just as their teenage son came in behind them.
"I'm Caroline and this is my husband Samuel and my son Chris," the woman said. Renesmee came over beside me on the balcony. She was starring at the boy and to her surprise he looked back. She looked away playing shy in front of Edward, as if he didn't know all about her nightlife.
The family handed Esme a pie. Emmett almost choked in disgust, one more thing that we would be forced to eat. I was also fixated on their boy though. I didn't know what it was about him. Maybe he demanded attention but everyone in the room was starring at him. His dark hair was hanging in his eyes and he was wearing a sweatshirt, nothing that would ever draw attention.
Renesmee retreated back to her room. "There is nothing out of the ordinary with that boy." Edward whispered in both Alice's and my ear. "He was scared at Emmett, he wants to bang Renesmee." He shook his head. "And Bella for that matter. Alice too but he saw her with you…" So in conclusion nothing out of the ordinary.
"But there is something there about him." Alice whispered but then as we looked back down they were gone, just some neighbours coming to say hello. The house went back to normal, like they were never here, well other then the fact there was a pie sitting on the kitchen table.
After a refreshing but small hunt we all sat down at the television that night the news was the only channel we had so far. The news lady was announcing the weather. None of us were very interested. Alice was telling me every single reaction Emma had. As if I didn't feel it, but it was rare these days to see her so happy so I endured it by looking into her smiling eyes.
"There was coven of vampires found in the south eastern part of America." The reporter announced. The environment in the room darkened and al eyes were now on the television. Alice gripped my hand. I thought I was going to be sick from the wave of emotion.
"There were three of them travelling together. Sadly our people were only able to kill two of them so all people in the area are advised to watch out." On the screen came some percussion lists. Locks on the doors and wearing a lot of perfume to mask the scent of your blood. As if that would stop us if we wanted blood that badly.
Net came a full out description of what we look like. Pale skinned, beautiful, don't eat, and they sparkle in the sun were all on the list. All things the werewolves had sold out on us. The next thing I knew the television screen was blank.
"Know one needed to watch that." Esme whispered and walked into the kitchen. Carlisle nodded his head and followed her out. As I looked around I saw all of the terrified faces of my family. Even Emmett was scared now.
At first he questioned on how the humans would have been able kill someone as powerful as us. The answer was simple. A bomb could both rip us apart and set us on fire, a crewel death, one that if any one of us died we would all want to go with them.
Okay well I hoped you all liked it, and the Vulturi will be explained in time don't worry. I absolutely love to hear your comments thank you all for you love and support!
