Chapter 3:

As soon as I heard my daughter's wail, I sprinted. I guess it was just by instinct. My mind's thoughts about Jacob had completely vanished; all I had left on my mind was Renesmee. Nothing else could compare to her. Or Edward.

I reached my house in five seconds flat. Or maybe four seconds and 57 milliseconds, just to be exact. The sight which met my eyes was beyond anything I had ever imagined. Renesmee was wailing with anger, calling Jacob's name with her harmonic, high-pitched squeal. Tears came splattering down her round cheeks. Rosalie was trying to control her from throwing herself at Edward, who was sitting on the couch with his head in his hands.

I immediately ran to Renesmee's side, shushing her all the while. She eventually calmed down.

"Shhh, Nessie. Everything's going to be okay. Momma's here for you." I rocked her in my arms, gazing into her eyes. They looked so beautiful. My head snapped up to the sound of Carlisle's distant voice.

"Edward, that was quite harsh of you." I knew almost at once what he was talking about. The whole family had probably heard Edward's outburst. I saw him flinch from behind his pale hands.

Esme entered the conversation, her golden eyes concerned.

"Edward, I have to agree with your father. What you did to Jacob wasn't nice at all. No wonder he phased right on the spot. No wonder Renesmee isn't at all happy with you. No wonder-," Edward had finally taken his head from his hands.

"Mom, I know. Please do not remind me of before. I am trying to keep it out of my mind." And with that, Edward stood up firmly and slithered away gracefully. I stared after him, Renesmee following my lead.

The moment he was gone, Renesmee began to sob once more. I thought I heard a far-away howl, but I was probably just hallucinating.

"I want Jacob. NOW!!" I had never seen her so...commanding. And upset. She was generally obedient most of the time. That is, with the exception of when she wanted to 'play' with Jacob in the woods and I did not give her permission.

My mind was swirling in confusion, and I felt dizzily overwhelmed. I staggered towards the sofa, my hold on Renesmee faltering slightly. Rosalie sauntered up to me expectantly. With a sigh, I handed her Renesmee. I could see and hear Alice and Jasper in the far corner having a private conversation of their own.

Once or twice I could catch the words 'Renesmee' and 'Jacob' in it somewhere. I stood up unsteadily and stumbled my way towards the bedroom. I looked nowhere near as poised as a vampire. And for once in my life, I didn't care. I just needed a place to lie down, that was all.

In the white room, I found Edward lying on our big white bed, murmuring to himself while continually flicking the channels on our wide screen Plasma. I lay down beside him. Somehow, just looking at him had evaporated my wooziness. I placed my head onto his broad shoulder. Edward stopped murmuring and flicked off the T.V., turning towards me.

I smiled up at him silently, for no words would come out. I didn't want to talk about the previous incident with Renesmee (I winced) and Jacob (another wince). Edward seemed to understand me perfectly. He rolled over onto his side and gave me a soft peck on the lips. I giggled quietly, distracted.

All thoughts flew from my mind and were replaced with Edward, Edward, Edward. All I could think about was Edward. I reached up towards my husband, putting my arms around his neck. He pulled away for some reason. That made me recoil in disappointment.

"Not now, Bella," he whispered impatiently. I put on my puppy-dog face; that is, if you could call it a puppy-dog face. It looked more like I had just caught a whiff of something nasty. I was confused. I sniffed in pity. Edward rolled his eyes.

I saw a trace of a smile on his face.

"Oh, alright. But just this once." I smiled with eagerness, and once again put my arms around his neck. I leaned towards him hungrily, my lips quivering with impatience. Then his lips were upon mine.

That set up a fire inside me; a fierce sizzling energy. I held onto him, pulling him closer. My lips parted to breathe in his scent.

Abruptly, we pulled apart. I was confused and irritated at Edward for ruining this perfect moment. What had gotten into him? It wasn't like I was still human; there were no longer any physical barriers between us, were there? Before I could retort indignantly, the door opened.

It was Emmett. I suddenly felt grateful towards Edward for stopping us before Emmett could catch us. He would never stop teasing us if he did. Then I noticed his look of anxiety.

"Edward, the wolves are declaring war against us. The treaty has been broken." TO BE CONTINUED...
