Chapter 14

~*~Bella's POV~*~

Today is Renesmee's first day back to school since the whole thing that happened with Ricky. She was more than excited to get back and get out of the house. Jacob and Nessie's relationship has grown a lot since their first date. I've asked them both what they did on their date but all I would get is that they ate dinner and danced. But whatever really happened on their date brought them closer together.

Renesmee looks about 16 years old now. In another year she will be fully grown at 18 years old. My little girl was really growing up fast, and I know soon, her and Jacob will get married. I can already see that happening.

I was sitting on the bed thinking about this all when Edward came in.

"Are you ready love?" He asked. I looked up at him and smiled.

"Yes" He smiled back and took my hand. He helped me up and we walked downstairs.

Renesmee and Jacob were already downstairs eating breakfast. And the rest of the family was sitting at the table with them discussing different things.

Edward and I walked in and sat down by Nessie.

"Morning sweetheart" I told her.

"Morning mom, dad" She replied.

"Did you sleep well?" Edward asked her and she nodded. Nessie went back to eating.

Soon it was time to leave for school. Everyone said goodbye to Carlisle and Esme, then headed outside to our cars. We got to school and went to our classes.

The first half of the day went by pretty fast. Nessie was doing great, no one asked where she had been or asked about Ricky. It was time for lunch and we sat at our usual table.

"How's your day going Nessie?" Rose asked her.

"It's going great. I'm so glad to be back." She replied and Jake smiled at her.

"That's great Nessie" Emmett answered.

Everyone started talking to each other when Alice's eyes looked like they were seeing something far away. And in her case, she was. She was having a vision. Jasper sat there staring at her waiting for her to come out of it. After a few moments she did. The look on her face told me it wasn't a good vision. Edward stiffens beside me and hissed quietly.

"What did you see Alice?" Jasper asked her.

"Not here" She shook her head.

I looked at Edward, wanting an answer. He had already thawed out but his eyes were still angry. I looked over to Jake, worried. He was looking between Alice and Edward, impatiently wanting to know what's going on.

"I think we need to go home" Edward finally spoke. Everyone nodded and got up out of their seats. We grabbed our belongings and went to our cars.

We got home and went inside. Esme came down the stairs in a flash.

"What are you kids doing home already?"

"Alice had a vision" Emmett replied.

"Alice what did you see?" I asked her, anxiously.

"I saw Mike and Tanya." She answered. I heard everyone gasp along with me. Jacob growled silently beside me.

"Mike has a power."

"What? He has a power?" Jasper responded. Alice and Edward both nodded. Then Alice continued.

"He can bring back someone's emotional pain. Anything that had hurt you emotionally."

"Well Bella's shield can protect us from it right?" Jacob asked. Alice shook her head no.

"It works like Jaspers powers do. Jaspers powers are not shielded from Bella."

I froze in place. Mike's power could get past my shield.

"I need to call Carlisle and let him know about this" Esme said as she flew to the kitchen to call Carlisle.

"What do we do now?" Rose spoke for the first time since we got home.

"Well nothing yet, right?" Jacob asked. I saw Nessie looking at everyone, confused and worried. We still had not told her the whole story about Mike and what happened that night they tried to kill me.

Alice shook her head again. "They are planning on coming back…for Bella" She whispered at the end. Edward and Jacob both growled.

I looked at Edward, worried. He took in my expression and wrapped his arms around me.

"Don't worry, we won't let anything happen to you" He whispered in my ear.

"Wait. Why is this Mike guy coming for mom? Am I missing something here?" Renesmee finally said. Jacob looked at her and then looked at Edward and me.

"We have to tell her" I sighed.

"Tell me what"

"Nessie" Edward sighed. "Mike was a friend of your moms. Tanya changed him into a vampire to get revenge on your mother."

She stared at Edward still not understanding what's going on.

"Tanya made Mike think that your mother killed his fiancée, Jessica. Who was your mother's friend as well. About a month ago, Mike and Tanya tried to…..kill her" Edward hesitated at the end. Nessie's eyes went wide and she looked at everyone.

"And no one thought to tell me about this?" Nessie was angry.

"We didn't want to upset you" Edward responded. "You were still recovering and we didn't want this stress you out. That was the last thing you needed at the time."

"I don't care! I am part of this family too!" She yelled. Jacob put his arms around her to try and calm her down. She shook him off and ran upstairs to her room and slammed the door. I watched her run upstairs and sighed. I looked up at Edward.

"She's just angry right now. Let her calm down" Edward told me.

"I'm going to go check on her" Jacob said and ran up the stairs.

"So what now then?" Emmett asked,

"We wait until they plan to attack" Alice responded.

"Why? Let's go find them now." Emmett said excitedly. He always was looking for a fight or something to do. Rose growled beside him and he rolled his eyes.

"Emmett, we are not just going to go find them and attack them." Edward glared at him. "If we can avoid a fight, then we will." Jasper added. Emmett sighed and leaned back against the wall.

I laid my head against Edward's chest and he tightened his arms that were around me.

"So now we wait." I mumbled. Edward nodded his head "We wait"

Later on, Nessie and Jake came down from upstairs.

"Mom...Dad...I'm sorry I yelled." Ness apologized.

"Sweetheart, it's ok. I know why you got upset" I told her.

"It still doesn't mean I had a right to yell. I know you guys were just protecting me."
"It's ok Nessie." Edward responded.

She smiled and gave us both a hug. Then her and Jacob sat by the TV and turned on the Xbox and started playing a game.

I looked at Edward and smiled. He looked down at me, smiling back. He leaned down and kissed me softly on my lips. I kissed him back and then pulled away when we heard Jacob and Nessie.

"Could you two not do that with your daughter in the room" Nessie said pretending to gag. Jake laughed beside her. Edward and I laughed along with him.

"Sorry honey" Edward said in between laughs.

Nessie rolled her eyes and turned her attention back to the video game. Jacob grinned and went back to playing the game as well. I smiled and laid my head back down on Edward's chest.

A few minutes later, Edward and I heard people talking out in the distance. Then Emmett, Rose, Alice and Jasper came walking in the front door. Everyone was laughing but Jasper.

"It was not funny, Emmett" Jasper hissed which made Emmett laugh more.

"No your right" Emmett agreed and his face got serious. "It wasn't funny"

Rose and Alice looked at Emmett, confused.

"It was freaking hilarious!" Emmett exclaimed and burst into laughter again.

"Ill get you back Emmett" Jasper promised. "Believe me, I will get you back."

I looked up at Edward, confused. I hated not knowing what they were talking about.

"Wow Emmett." Edward said while laughing. "You really don't want to live anymore, do you?"

"Ok, someone tell me what happened." I said, irritated. Then I looked at Jasper and noticed he was covered in brown colored dirt.

"Jasper, go shower!" Rose exclaimed. "I love you but you stink badly."

Then all of a sudden, Jacob groaned and looked around.

"Whoa!" He pinched his nose. "What the hell is that smell?"

"Jasper" Emmett laughed. Jasper gave Emmett the death glare and went upstairs to shower.

Then after a few moments and smelling a horrible smell, I realized what Jasper was covered in.

"Emmett, you got poop on Jasper?" I questioned. "How the hell did you manage that?"

"We were hunting deer and elk nearby. And Jasper was cleaning up in the river and near him were piles of Elk poop. I quietly walked up behind him and pushed him into the poop." Emmett explained and started laughing again. "What made it even better was when he fell, he rolled into the other piles of poop!"

Everyone was laughing by the time he was done explaining. Then Jasper came down the stairs freshly washed and clothed. As soon as he came into view, everyone started laughing harder.

"Yea yea. Get it all out of your system now" Jasper said to all of us. Alice went to Jasper's side and wrapped her arms around him.

"I'm sorry Jazz. I couldn't help but laugh" She said to him. "I still love you"

He smiled at Alice and bent down to kiss her.

"Ewww Alice." Emmett made a disgusted face "What if he has the poop in his mouth or something"

"Shut up Emmett!" Jasper picked up a book off the table near him and chucked at Emmett. It hit him in the head and ricochets off him, hitting the wall.

"Alright you two." Carlisle said as Esme and he came down the stairs. "Knock it off before you break something."

Emmett and Jasper replied "Sorry" at the same time. Carlisle and Esme went into the kitchen while the rest took seats in the living room.

I decided I wanted to go back to the cottage and take a shower and change clothes. I sat up and got out of Edward's arms. He looked at me, confusion flitting across his face. I smiled and kissed him quickly.

"I'm going to the cottage to take a shower and change clothes"

"Do you want me to come with you?"

I shook my head no and smiled at his pout.

"I won't be gone long. Just stay here. Ill be back before you know it" He nodded and kissed me again. I got up and went out the back door.

As I was running I started picking up a faint scent. It smelled familiar but I couldn't pick it up that well. I shrugged it off and continued on to the cottage.

I get there and go inside. I ran to the bathroom and started the shower.

After getting a shower and changing into some comfy clothes, I came out of the bedroom and walked into the living room. I wasn't paying any attention to my surroundings until I heard someone breathing. I didn't bother to look up, figuring it was just Edward.

"Edward, I told you to stay at the house." I said and when he didn't respond, I looked up.

That's when I realized it wasn't Edward.

"Hello again Bella" Mike grinned at me. My eyes widened instantly and I froze.

After a few seconds, I snapped back to reality and turned around and ran to the front door. But before I could even turn the door knob, something hit me.

I started feeling pain in my chest where my heart would be. I turned around and before falling to the ground, I saw Mike smirking.
