Chapter 7:

Bella's POV

"Rezzy!" I called it seemed the name Isadora had come up with for my beautiful daughter had stuck, for me at least. I liked it better than Nessie, Nessie was the name of a monster, the loch ness monster. It was 7 o'clock on a Monday morning we were going to be late for school

"Coming!" she called groggily and Iz raced past me up the stairs to Rezzy's room. They were like twins, but maybe closer. Every morning Alice and Iz chose an outfit for everyone for the day, it had become a routine in a way. Iz had style but didn't have Alice's tendency to go over the top and she could tell what teenagers would wear, she still looked her actual age, I should have looked 24 or 25 but I looked 18. Iz looked 16 and was 16.

Iz threw a bundle of clothes down the stairs at me, and of course I caught them, as a human though, I had been incredibly clumsy and wouldn't be able to even catch a ball thrown only a few feet away from where I stood. I pulled the first item from the top of the pile it was a purple beanie hat, the second was a black hooded sweater that was as Alice called it 'A sweater dress! Do not wear jeans with it Bella!" the third was a pair of black leggings and then purple and white checked converse high tops. It wasn't overly dressy for school I supposed. I walked up the stairs and into my bedroom to change into it.

Rezzy and Iz walked down the stairs arms linked and giggling, it was good for Rez, her friendship with Iz was a good thing, they both had similar personalities, except maybe Iz was less stubborn. They even wore outfits that co-ordinated but didn't match. Alice found that look tacky and childish.

"Did Jake tell you about imprinting?" Iz asked Rezzy as she waited for the rest of the family to come down to the hall where they waited. So Jake and Rez where together now, that was good, I could see how perfect they were for each other.

"Yeah, it was kind of weird, but it's a part of Jake." Rezzy admitted laughing nervously. I grinned at least my daughter wasn't going to hurt Jake like I had.

We were queuing up for lunch when we saw it, or rather Isadora did. In fact it was a him not an it.

"No! No! No! Why's he here?" Iz cried and my stomach lurched, had I failed to protect this child who I loved as if she was my own daughter from the man who had nearly killed her? Or was it something less sinister but powerful enough to scare her?

"Who is Izzy? Who is it?" I called after her as she ran out of the cafeteria at a pace almost too fast to be human; Rosalie's face showed signs of disapproval but everyone else looked concerned.

Rezzy and I leapt out of our seats to chase after Izzy, we were careful not to run too fast though, we didn't want to expose our secret to the world or to this relatively small high school.

Rezzy caught up to her first and saw her screaming, a pale man sat next to her, he held her hand. He looked at us with golden eyes. I gasped I heard only Renesmee's heartbeat – he was another vampire!
