Chapter 10

Bella feel onto the couch and let the tears flow as soon as Esme had closed the door.

"It's okay Bella," Esme said as she sat down next to Bella and put her arm around her.

Alice went and stood behind the couch and started to rub Bella's shoulders.

Rosalie sat on the other side of Bella. She had gotten closer to Bella after Renesmee was born and she had continued to be close to Bella even after Bella had had that mutt run off with Renesmee.

"What could have caused this?" Bella asked.

"We're not sure Bella darling but we're going to figure it out," Esme said.

"We all know what did it," Bella said quietly.

Esme looked over Bella's head at Rosalie and then looked at Alice. They all had the same look on their faces. The same looks of worry and fear.

"We all know the reason that Alice couldn't see. The weather wasn't a one time thing. There have only been two things that have made it so Alice can't see. And we all know that this wasn't because of werewolves. My daughter, my daughter Renesmee is here." Bella's voice was calm and she had complete control over it. The tears had stopped too.

"Now Bella, don't jump to conclusions," Esme said cautiously.

"I'm not Esme," Bella said. "I know it's Renesmee. That's the only answer."

"Bells, there could be another answer. There could be something else that effects me being able to see and we just haven't come across it yet," Alice said.

"No, there's not. I saw a girl who looked like I always imagined Renesmee would look when she got older. There were only a few differences. The girl had blonde hair but she had brown eyes. The same eyes I had when I was human." Bella said all this calmly.

"Wouldn't you have noticed her before if it truly was Renesmee?" Rosalie asked.

"Maybe she was new. She probably was because I've never noticed her before."

"Well there was a new girl in our drama class," Rosalie said. "And drama is the class that Mrs. Martin teaches."

Esme and Alice both gave Rosalie a warning glare. They didn't want Rosalie encouraging Bella.

"There was?" The excitement was clear in Bella's voice. "You'll have to see if it's her tomorrow!" She jumped up as she said it.

"Now you have to remember Bells, it might not be Renesmee so don't get your hope up too high," Alice said. She shot Rosalie a glare that said don't say another word.

"But it has to be her!" Bella said, turning to face Alice. "She has my eyes and Alice couldn't see!"

"We'll look Bella, but you have to realize it might not be her," Alice said. Her voice sounded like it would if she was talking to a young child.

"You will? You promise?" Bella asked. The longing was obvious in her voice.

"We promise," Alice and Rosalie said at the same time.

"Thank you," Bella said, a smile lighting up her face.

"Maybe we should all head back out to the living room," Esme suggested.

"That sounds like a good idea," Alice said. She and Esme both knew that Carlisle and Edward would know how to handle this.

"Yes that is a good idea. I can tell Edward we'll soon be reunited with our beautiful Renesmee," Bella said, her voice soft and dreamy. She stood up and walked back to the living room with Esme, Alice, and Rosalie. A huge smile was on her face. She was happier than she had been since they had lost Renesmee.
