Nessie's POV

My heart raced as if a humming birds wings as I gazed at my father's vindictive expression.

"Dad, please allow me to explain myself."

"You'd better do some damn explaining," He cut off "Renesmee how could you do this to yourself? I had always contemplated better of you, but I guess I was incompetent enough not to see this coming." A thousand words of repent came flooding into my mind, but as quickly as they had came, they vanished; overshadowed by my blazing anger.

"You know what; I don't have to elucidate myself to you! I don't have to enlighten anyone! But after all of the shit I've been through, there is one benefit that came out of all this. I won't end up being the one hundred year old virgin like you!" My anger came rushing out in one huge wave of emotion that I had been concealing; untamed and meant to bring him excoriating pain.

"You ungrateful little whore!" My father's words felt as if he had knocked the wind out of me.

Before I could control myself, I reached out and struck him across the face, the impact making him stumble.

"Don't ever come begging for help from me again, Renesmee," He hissed through clenched teeth "Because you won't get it."

I shrugged and laughed icily, my anger so intense that I could have debated with him for hours on end.

"There's no need to worry about that, because I don't want you, and I don't need you. You've been the worst possible father I could have ever hoped for. I have never had one true friend that was human, and you'd keep my isolated unless I had someone from the Volturi guard with me at all times. It's no wonder that you are finally paying more attention to me. You can't handle the fact that I'm happy for once in my life."

My father laughed melancholy.

"You truly don't understand. And you never will. I'd change your attitude before the baby is born if I was you, or you'll never be a good parent."

"Bite me." I snapped.

I turned on my heels and went downstairs, not daring to look back at the hurt look that would be on my father's face. Tears stung at my eyes as if acid, my lip quivering from heart ache.

Before I could open the door to the garden, Aunt Alice had appeared in front of me, here eyes telling me she knew what had just happened.

"I'm so sorry, sweetheart." Her melodic voice penetrating the emotions I had tried to conceal so desperately.

I threw my arms around her and broke down sobbing, letting her no without words of my pain.

"It'll be alright, Ness. I promise." Aunt Alice kissed the top of my head and held me, not saying anything else.

The thing I loved best about her is that she never lied to you, no matter what the situation may be.

Aunt Alice aided me in wiping the tears from her eyes, a diminutive smile played across her face.

"I heard about your baby, Nessie. Congrats. I was wondering if it's not to much trouble, of course, if I could plan the baby shower."

I laughed halfheartedly.

"Why am I not surprised?"

She grinned, making me assume that she had seen me saying yes. Since this was already a horrible situation, I might as well try and make one person happy.

As Aunt Alice and I made our way to the garden, I couldn't help but reflect upon the creature growing inside of me.

I knew one thing was for certain. This child will truly change my life, and I had a dreadful feeling it won't be for the better.
