Chapter 10: Deceit
Nessie's POV
I would be lying if I said that I wasn't terrified right now. Even though the anger was directed at my so-called father I was still scared. An angry vampire was always scared the crap out of me because they were so much stronger than EJ and I and we could easily get hurt. I wasn't stupid. I knew that there was no way we stood a chance against a full vampire. Let alone two angry ones right now.
"I had to keep Bella safe and lying was the only way,"
"No it was not!" Carlisle screamed. "You lied to us! You lied to Bella! You made her believe that we didn't love her! You made us believe that she hated us! You were intimate with her and then you told her a bunch of vicious lies! How can you claim to love her yet treat her the way you did?!"
"Don't you dare say that I don't love her!" dad shouted angrily. "I love her more than anything in the world,"
"Edward stop!" Carlisle was getting angrier and angrier by the second. "Your actions do not reflect the love you say you have for her. Because when someone loves someone else they would never do anything to hurt the person they love on purpose and that is exactly what you did! If you truly loved Bella like you said you did than you wouldn't have lied to her like that or lied to your own family to turn us against her!"
"I-"
"Because of your actions your mother and I lost seven years of our grandchildren!"
I jumped when I felt an ice cold hand touch my shoulder.
"Come on kids let's go," Esme said. "This could get out of handle and I don't want you two to get hurt," I didn't hesitate to follow her as fast as I could. Wanting to put as much distance as I could between myself and the two angry vampires.
She quickly guided us away from the two angry vampires in the living room and took us into a different room.
"You both should be safer over here if it gets out of hand,"
"Thanks Esme," I answered.
"Now now young lady I don't tolerate such disrespect. You both may call me grandma, or gran. Whichever makes you feel more comfortable but never by my first name,"
"Okay grandma,"
She hugged my brother and I right.
"So Renesmee and EJ?"
"Mostly they call me Nessie. But technically it is Renesmee Carlie Swan,"
"Renesmee. Renee and Esme. My goodness did your mother name you after me?"
I shrugged. "Mom never talked about you so I don't know,"
"What does EJ stand for?"
"Edward Junior. I think," EJ said with a bit of bitterness in his voice. If mother confirmed our suspicion he was going to flip.
"I'm sorry kids. I'm sorry for all this,"
"Don't be. It's not your fault," but not even saying that does anything to lessen the sadness I could see so visibly on her face.
"No it is," she said. "We should've questioned your father instead of blindly believing him. It never made sense but we believed him anyway. I never thought Edward was capable of doing something like that,"
"Mom could've questioned it to but she didn't," EJ stated.
"We left before your mother would've even had the chance to question it,"
"Look I don't think it matters anymore. It happened. What could we do to fix it?"
"Your mother thinks we never wanted her. I don't think it's even possible to fix what Edward has done,"
"Of course it is," I said. "As long as mom listens it's possible. I think mom deserves to know the truth of all the damage my father has done,"
Grandma looks on in sadness. "Your father has done a lot of damage. I'm not sure it can be repaired. Your mother might not ever forgive us for our part in what happened,"
"As far as I'm concerned you're all just as much of a victim as mom is in this," EJ added.
"My brother is right. Mom is not an unreasonable vampire I think she'll listen if given the chance,"
"Your mother is a vampire now?"
I nodded my head. "Our birth was difficult and there was no way mom would survive it as a human. I'm the one who changed her just in time,"
"So who took care of you while your mother was changing?"
"No one. We were on our own for three days,"
Grandma gasped in horror. "I'm sorry," she grabbed us into a tight hug again.
I could feel the love radiating off of her. Two seconds after finding out we exists and she already loves us like we've been apart of the family for years.
She would've been an amazing grandmother to us growing up. I could feel it. Something told me that Carlisle would've been an amazing grandfather to us as well.
I heard a lot of screaming and yelling outside. Then I heard something break. I knew the fight was just getting worse and worse by the minute. Next thing I know I heard the door slam and break.
"Your dad left,"
"Why?"
"Your grandfather kicked him out. Said he doesn't even want to look at him right now after all the damage he's caused. I've never seen your grandfather so angry before,"
"Is it safe to go out?"
"Probably better to stay away for now. Let him calm down,"
I sighed. "He must've really cared about mom to get that upset,"
"He and I loved your mother like if she were our own daughter. To us your mother was family,"
I closed my eyes just hoping and praying that everything would somehow workout in the end.
