Dissclaimer: I am not Stephenie Meyer and do not own any characters, I am simply writing what I think would happen after Breaking Dawn.

A/N: I am so sorry for the wait you guys I've been in such a slump. I had writers block, finals and EOC's, schedualing for senior year and so much more. But as promissed I have not given up and this chapter is much longer than any of my previous ones. NOW THIS IS IMPORTATNT: in order for me to do my best work I need feed back from you. That means what you think needs improvement, what you would like to read next, ect... What I really need to know is if you would like Charlie to find out about Vampires in the next chapter or not. So at the risk of sounding like I'm begging, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REVIEW THIS CHAPTER AND TELL OTHERS ABOUT MY STORY. Thanks so much.

Chapter 7

The sun was setting when I carried a sleeping Nessie into my shamble of a room. She had fallen asleep on the way back. From the skin contact I could watch her dream. She was talking with Charlie about being half vampire. I laughed at her optimism but was also sad because she wouldn't be able to share life with her grandfather even though she really wanted to. I sighed as I tucked her into my bed and turned out the lights. I was heading towards the couch when she yelled out my name.

"Yeah!" I yelled, heading back to the room.

"I don't like keeping secrets from grandpa."

"I know, but it's for his safety." Her face was painted with a frown when faced with the facts.

"But whenever I see his face he always looks so sad." She was still frowning and avoiding eye contact with me.

"Don't worry sweetie, Charlie is happy as long as he gets to see you." Her expression lightened a bit.

"Why don't I lay with you until you fall asleep?"

"Okay," she sighed.

I crawled under the covers and started rubbing her back and humming a lullaby. Within minutes she was asleep and I followed shortly.

The next morning I woke up first so I went to the kitchen to make breakfast. As I was starting up the coffee maker Nessie walked out. She walked towards me yawning, her mouth making the cutest little "O" shape. Her hair was a tangle of unruly curls that resembled a rats nest more than hair.

"Hey Nessie, did you get a good night sleep?"

As she looked up at me she was wiping the sleep from her eyes. "Yeah," she replied.

"Well your parents won't be here for another half hour or so, what would you like to do till then?" I asked.

"I don't know," she replied as Billy and Charlie came in.

"Did the fishing trip just end or are you just too lazy to go home?" I laughed.

Renesme giggled eliciting a suspicious look from Charlie but it quickly disappeared.

"No Charlie just came to see you and Nessie." Billy said.

I sighed; Charlie wasn't going to believe Nessie was safe around me. If only he knew that she was just as strong as me.

"Papa, Papa!" Renesme yelled effectively gaining Charlie's attention.

She lifted her arms above her head. She really was a genius because the threatening atmosphere seemed to all but vanish.

"Hey cutie, how are you today?" Charlie leaned over to pick her up. "Did you have fun?"

"Yeah!" she yelled.

I could tell by her face that she wanted to say so much more. I gave her a warning glance and the shake of my head. I could tell that she understood me and relaxed.

"Well that's great sweetie."

When she made a motion indicating that she wanted down Charlie set her down on the floor and she immediately walked over to me. She raised her arms up again so picked her up. She placed her palm against my neck and relaying her plan to make Charlie more comfortable with her being alone with me. I shook my head and she began to make a scene.

"Jakey, Jakey!" she tugged on my shirt lapels while pointing outside. I pretended to ignore her to make the act more convincing. She quickly caught on and began to squirm impatiently in my arms making little noises. She even went as far as to pull my hair, which in my opinion was overdoing it.

"Okay, Okay!" laughter in my voice. "We'll go for a run just wait a second alright." I set her on the counter and turned back to Charlie.

"Sorry to cut the visit short but I promised Nessie I would give her ride before Bella and Edward come to pick her up."

As expected, Charlie's face went as white as a bed sheet. Renesme tried to show her excitement by bouncing up and down and clapping.

"Watch me Papa, watch me!"

When I looked back at Charlie he looked like he was about to be sick.

"Charlie she really wants you to watch her, Bella and Edward said it is okay so you don't need to worry."

When he didn't show any signs of caving Nessie pouted and tears went down her face.

"Please watch Papa," she begged.

He sighed in defeat, "Alright sweetie, I'll watch if that makes you happy." He was sporting a fake smile but at least he was trying.

"Yay!" she squealed.

I went and picked her up, "Alrighty then, let's go Nessie." She was giggling and laughing with excitement.

Once we were outside I handed Renesme to Charlie. "Can you hold her while I shift?" I asked. He seemed reluctant at first but after a few minutes he nodded his head and held out his arms. I handed her to him and jogged out to the middle of the yard.

As I shifted I pay as close attention to Charlie as I could. Once done I trotted back over to them and lay down in front of them. When he hesitated to place her on my back Renesme started to squirm.

"Jakey, ride Jakey now!" by the tone of her voice I could tell that she was genuinely aggravated, so to prevent a potentially disastrous scene I huffed and nuzzled his foot hoping to get him to listen to her. He sighed heavily and then reluctantly set her on top of me. She grabbed the scruff of my neck like the reigns of a pony and started to bounce. Charlie seemed to visibly relax when he saw how much fun Nessie was having.

When it looked like he was as comfortable as he ever would be I started to slowly run laps around the yard. Renesme started pointing to the woods so I started toward that direction. I picked up more speed when we were out of Charlie's sight. As I came out of the woods I heard a car heading up the road. Just as I was leaning down so she could slide off, Bella stepped out of the car.

Renesme ran straight to Bella screaming, "MOMMY!"

Bella scooped her up and gave her a kiss on the head. My dad came out with a pair of shorts and I took them and quickly headed behind a nearby tree to shift and get my shorts on.

Jake walked out from behind the tree just as Edward came up behind me.

"Daddy!" Renesme leaned over trying to get into his arms.

"Hi princess, did you have a good time?" he asked as I handed her to him.

"Yeah, Yeah!"

Charlie walked up to me and gave me hug.

"Hey Bells, how are you?" he rubbed his hands together and I could smell the spike in adrenalin signaling his nervousness.

"Dad if you have something to say just say it."

He huffed aggregately, "Do you really think it's safe to let her ride on his back like that?" he sounded really worried.

I laughed, "Dad you don't have to worry Jake would never do anything to hurt Renesme and she is a lot tougher than she looks."

He still didn't look convinced. "Charlie?" Edward added and Charlie turned to him.

"We would never allow her to participate in something that could cause her harm."

"Dad please don't worry, it's safe I promise."

"Fine, alright." He sighed still sounding unconvinced. "Well I better get going then, I have a pile of case files on my desk that got my name on them."

"Okay, have fun."

"Not likely," he leaned down to kiss my cheek. "Love you Bells, see you later."

"Love you too dad."

Once Charlie was gone Renesme hopped out of Edwards's arms and started running around.

"I agree." Edward said. I felt out of the loop.

"What did I miss?" I asked.

Edward turned to Nessie, "Hey Nessie why don't you and Billy go get your things." he turned to Billy, "Is that alright with you?"

"Yeah, that's fine." He said. "Come on Nessie lets go."

"Okay!" she yelled while running to him.

"Okay what's going on?" I asked, continuing the previous conversation.

"Jacob was just thinking that Charlie is becoming overly suspicious lately."

"What happened?" I did not like where this going, with every second came more worry. Edward turned to Jake and I did the same.

"Well you know how Charlie backs off when you say Need to know?"

"Yeah and?" I yelled out, I starting to get annoyed with his cryptic answers.

"Lately he hasn't been backing off and it has us worried." Jake said.

"But he is still backing down isn't he?" I asked starting to understand their concern.

"Our worry is that he will start asking questions and not being content with the answer." Edward answered my remaining question.

"If this keeps up we're all going to have to watch what we say."

I turned to Jake, "You're right, let's keep cool for now and see what happens alright."

Nessie came running full speed towards Jake and the next thing I knew she was in Jake's arms. "Jakey, I love you!" she said and placed a kiss on his cheek.

I felt Edward stiffen next to me. Calm down she's just saying good bye, why don't you go get her things.

He went over to Billy and got her things, when he came back he seemed to have calmed down.

"I love you too Nessie and I'll see you soon." Jake said giving her a little squeeze and set her down.

"Are you ready to go sweetie?" I asked.

"Yeah!" she replied.

We got in the car and as we were pulling out of the drive way Nessie stuck her head out the window and screamed, "Bye Jakey!" We all laughed as we headed home.
