I wanted a simple life with my family for 1 day. One day! Is that too much to ask for? I have by far the most complicated life on the planet. I am some sort of super vampire that can't even hold my half breed daughter or see my human father. On top of all that my werewolf best friend imprinted on my daughter and gave her the nickname Nessie. To top it all off a royal vampire family wants to kill my daughter. I just want one day of normalcy and this is what I get. God must hate me. I sat down on my bed and tuned into the conversation downstairs. I had run upstairs once I realized that we had to deal with Charlie too.
"How's she doing Jasper? This is a lot to take in."
"She's stressed but other than that she's doing pretty good."
"I feel bad. I wish that I could help her but I can't do much. All I can do is try to come up with something to tell her father. I can't believe how quickly things spun out of control."
"Edward, right now she just needs someone to be there for her."
"I know"
They know that I can hear them but they still talk as if I can't. I grabbed a book but couldn't focus on it. I turned on the stereo but I that couldn't calm me down either. So I pulled all the cds off the shelves and reorganized them. 3 hours later I was only halfway done but I heard a chuckle from the door way. I looked up and saw Edward standing there.
"I needed something to keep my mind busy."
"Don't worry I've done the same thing before."
"So have you guys figured out what we are going to do."
"Right now we are thinking about running off to Isle Esme and hiding out for the rest of the century."
I laughed, "I like that idea."
He came over and pulled me up, "I think you need to relax we will take care of everything."
"Edward I know you mean well but I can't. If something were to happen to you guys while you were trying to protect me I would feel horrible."
"We have been vampires way longer than you. We know what we are doing, you don't."
"You may be way older than me but having a fresh mind to give you ideas never hurts."
"What do you think we should do then?"
"Face our problems head on, I can be around Reneesme so if I don't breath I should be able to handle Charlie. We can tell him that we are moving, and then we can head off to some far away destination where it will take the Volturi a while to find us."
"That might just work. There is one problem though, if things go south, which they will, we won't have the werewolves to help us."
"We will cross that bridge when we come to it."
"We don't have to deal with everything today. Let's just relax."
"Sounds perfect"
