Edward's POV (before Bella comes into the house)
I look over my shoulder to Bella. She's sitting in the car with the rest of the family. She looks like she's in pain, while something flashes across her eyes. Love? And pain. The gift she had some how gotten into my back pocket now felt like it weighed so much more. I sighed, turned to the house and walked in.
I kept my gaze to the ground, and wiped my feet on the mat, then taking my shoes off. I looked up. Three people were sitting in the living. My mother and father and then a lady I didn't know. I looked over to Tanya and she was glaring at the lady.
"Mother? Father?" I said, they turned to look at me. Their eyes were red and puffy, "Who's this?"
My mom took a deep breath, "This is Bella's mother, Renee." She said, looking away and sniffing. She was crying, this lady came here to ruin Bella's big day. Was she coming here to take her away?
I walked over to the kitchen and leaned against the door, Tanya leaned against me, "So what's she doing here?"
"She-" My father started but was interupted by Renee.
"I come to celebrate my girls seventeenth birthday," She looks at me, hatred filling her eyes, "Can't I do that?"
"No." I said with a grimace.
She glared at me, "Well I also come here to take her away."
I froze, Esme cried into Carlisle's arm. She came here to take her away?! She can't do that. I was going to tell Bella how I feel about her. Bella is the one that keeps me alive. Everytime I see her smile I'm happy. Bella is my world!
"Like hell you can." Tanya said, everyone in the room turns to look at her, "Bella, is staying here with us. You take her away you will wish you were never born." She starts walking towards her, fist raised. I wrap my arms around her waist pulling her back to me, I kiss her ear and whisper, "No." Over and over.
"Watch me." Renee says and faces the door, when we here them on the porch.
Bella opens the door, and freezes when she sees her mother sitting there.

Bella's POV (after the hug)
I pull away quickly, "I said you can't just appear in my life Renee." Like I was going to be calling her mom.
"But you're my daughter, I at least get to see you." She smiles, I look away disqusted, "Where's you're father?" My heart aches. It hurts to much, I feel tears coming down my face, I turn to look back at her.
"Are you fucking kidding me?" Raising my voice on each word, "Oh my god," I throw my hands in ther air, "He died when I was little, these are my parents now," I point to Carlisle and Esme and see them smile at the word, "You-you're some strange that walks into my life saying your my mother! You walked out on us when I was just an infant!" I scream.
Carlisle and Esme getting up, getting everyone's attention and pulling them upstairs to give us some privacy. Renee watches as they leave, once she thinks they are out of ear shot range she looks back at me, "How dare you yell at me!!" She yells back at me.
I'm pissed off now, "What?! I'm just suppose to accept you back into my life?! Yeah, right. Where were you when I was in kindergarden and played a role in the play? Hm?!Where were you when I graduated eightth grade?! Where were you when I got my period?! Edward freaked out when that happened, we were only in seventh grade and he didn't know what to do. Where were you when I got my first boyfriend, who by the way," I lifted my shirt to show her my scar. Her eyes widened, "abused me." Tears escaped my eyes, "Where were you?" I said pulling down my shirt to cover it up.
"I-" I raised my hand to stop her.
"Don't." I looked at the stairs, "Charlie told Carlisle what you use to do to me..." I let my eyes go back to her, she lost all color in her face. I heard several different gasps.
"What are you talking about?" She grabbed something around her neck and held onto it.
"Carlisle told me when I was 'old enough to know'." I did air quotes around the phrase, "Renee, you beat me when I was a baby. That's not right." I said, shaking my head, "You didn't leave, Charlie told you to leave because he didn't want you to hurt me more."
She glared at me, raised her hand and brought it close to my face. I caught her hand in time and just looked at her, she looked back at me, scared, "Don't even think about hitting me." I heard some footsteps running down the hall. Someone tackled that person making a loud 'thud' echo throughout the house, and some people whispering while yell.
"Emmett get off of me!" Edward yelled, Renee looked at the stairs. I still had her hand, I pushed her making her land into a chair.
"If you came here, to take me back with you," I said, folding my arms across my chest, "forget it. I'm not going with you anywhere." I glared at her one more time, turned around and walked to the stairs. Once I got past the fifth step I ran up the rest of the way. I came to the hallway and froze, my lips forming a smile.
"What's going on?" I asked, I was quite when I ran up the stairs.
Edward was under Emmett, thrashing around, Jasper was holding down Edward's legs. Rose and Alice were towards the end of the hall holding back Tanya who looked pissed. Esme was to the side of the boys on the floor holding a picture from falling. Carlisle was holding Esme, like she was about to fall. When I talked they stopped what they were doing and looked at me.
"Bella!" Tanya said, looking all over my face. I looked at her, smiled and looked back to Edward who looked at me and smiled.
"Bells!" Emmett said, surprised. I just laughed.
They slowly untangled themselves and got up, they walked towards me and gave me a big group hug. I was staying here with my family, no one was going to take me away from them.

Friday.
Today was Friday, the day we were going to go to the beach. Today was really warm, like summer weather. Perfect for the beach.
"Bella!" Alice said, running through the cafeteria to me, sitting at our table. This week had been very short, well to me. Renee lefted without another word, which made me happy. They celebrated my birthday and we had fun. Emmett got cake all over me.
"Bella!" Alice said again, shaking my arm.
I look at her, "Yeah?"
"Today's half a day!" She said jumping up and down, "Beach time!" She pulled me out of my chair and pulled me through the school. We pasted Edward and Tanya, I grabbed her hand and pulled her with us. Me and Tanya are starting to become better friends, we are taking it slow.
Alice got in the car, and we hopped in the back. Tanya was in the middle, Jasper got in the front seat next to Alice. Just when I was going to ask where Emmett and Rose were the back door opened and they got in the trunk. I just laughed.
"Go Alice!" I said, she laughed and took off. Alice was hyper this morning and already packed our swimming suit and extra clothes. Once she was out of the parking lot, she sped up.
I sighed and laid my head back. Rose started to brush through my hair with her fingers. I sighed again and let the memories come back to me.
Birthday Cake.
"Hey Bella!" Emmett yelled from the kitchen. I was in the living talking to Edward, he said that he had something important to tell me. He groaned when Emmett called me. I told him to hold on and walked into the kitchen.
Emmett was standing there with a smile on his face. I just looked at him and then everyone else in the kitchen. Rose stood there with the ice cream, Esme stood there with towels.
"What's going on?"
Emmett took his hands out from behind him and had some cake in it. I backed up but ran into Edward. He wrapped his arms around my waist, "Em." He said in a warning tone but he didn't listen.
Emmett threw the cake at me, hitting me in the face. I stood there shocked and then laughed, making everyone around me laugh too. I ran to the kitchen table, grabbed some cake and threw it at Emmett. Nailing him in the forehead.
We all laughed and then a cake fight happened.
I opened my eyes, lifting my head, to find that my hair had been put up into a cute pony tail. We were here, everyone was getting out of the car and I followed. I shut the door, turned around and twenty feet away from me was my best friend when we were little.
Jacob Black.
"Jake!" I yelled running towards him, he turns around and smiles, his smile seemed to light up the sky. He caught my in his arms and twirled me around. And to think, this kid is only sixteen when he looks twenty five.
"Bella," He said smiling at me, "I thought I would never see you again."
I just smiled. He lifts his gaze off of me to behind me, I look over my shoulder. Edward is standing there, pissed.
"Edward." I said, trying to get down. Jake let go of me. But he turned me back to him and gave me a kiss right on the corner of my lips. My face heated up from him and from me blushing. I turn around, see Edward watching me and walk off towards the showers to change.
"I'm watching you." Edward mumbles to Jake before leaving.
I sighed, this is going to be a long day.
