I would say that Rosie and I will be broke by the time our vacation is over but investing wisely in stocks and being alive since the early 1900's guarantee's having lots of money. Which Rose and I do. I can't wait to see the kids face's. They were asleep when we got to the airport. In fact they're still asleep and we're two hours into the flight.

I turned around and saw Rose run her hand through Ashlyn's hair as she read a magazine. I couldn't help, but smile. I turned back and looked to my left where Shane was sitting on the window seat. I rubbed his back gently, but he moved his hand to swat mine away. I don't get it. How can Rose get away with being all gentle and caring, but I can't. I turned back to Rose.

"Psst," I whispered. She looked up from her magazine.

"Yes dear?" she asked low enough for no one to hear.

"Switch?"

"Emmett, we can't just switch seats because you feel like it."

"I don't feel like it. I just want some time with my baby girl too. Child hogger," I whispered back. She stared at me open mouthed.

"I do not hog our children," she whispered sternly, low enough so only I can hear. "Besides you hog our son."

"Really mature Rosie," I said. She then smacked me in the head with the magazine. I noticed people's head turn our way. I embarrassingly smiled, "Please Rosie."

"Fine," she huffed out. Slowly she got up making sure Ashlyn didn't feel the change in posture. I sat down in her seat while she sat down in mine.

We sat in silence. I looked at the magazine the airplanes provided. It was sky mall. As I looked at I saw some things I wanted to buy not just for me, but the kids and Rosie too. Let's see I want the Official Hockey History book, the Britannica Student Encyclopedia, the Movie's Life, Oceans, and Planet Earth, ooh a Tasch Skeleton Pocket watch. Shane would love that for his birthday. I remember my dad gave me one on my birthday. Oh no way a squirting remote control car definitely. I took out my laptop and started shopping online. Right now I'll get the Remote control car, 104 piece multimedia art set, a four marshmallow shooter's, Personalized Hometown Puzzles, Einstein Radio Lab DIY kit, Electronic Chess, a sapphire starburst necklace , a Saxony green jewelry set, and a lumiere Necklace with a bracelet. I paid for all of them, had each one wrapped, and immediately shipped to the house we'd be staying at in Ireland.

As I put the laptop away I saw Rose's hand gently rub Shane's back. What the hell! I looked at Ashlyn who had hair covering her face. I gently moved it away. She moved in her seat and I froze my position. My hand was still close to her face. She moved again and I quickly brought my hand back. This is so not fair how come Rose can comfort them but I can't. They always seem to know when it's me or Rose. Not Fair! Rose turned her head around and looked at me. She smiled, but then glowered at me.

"Emmett, she's going to have a sore neck when she wakes up. Move her head up," Rose whispered sternly as I reached for Ashlyn's head, "gently," she hissed. I gently held Ashlyn's forehead. Before I even moved her, her eyes fluttered opened and her breathing hitched.

"Mom!" Ashlyn yelled making the people around us turn their heads our way. Shit, shit, shit! What do I say? Damn it I can't remember our cover! Rosalie looked at me.

"Switch," she said angrily just as Shane woke up. I got up and switched places with her. People were still looking our way.

"Hey Ashlyn, were almost there. We'll see mom in a bit. I promise," Rosalie said. I turned my head to see Rose put the arm rest that divided the seat up so that Ashlyn can sit closer to Rose. "I'm sorry I wasn't here when you woke up, baby. Your father insisted on being childish and switching seats," Rose whispered in Ashlyn's ear.

"s'okay" Ashlyn murmured.

Soon enough we arrived in London. The kids couldn't be less ecstatic than they were right now. They were in the land of red Robin Hood, Peter Pan, and Harry Potter. They insisted on going to platform nine and three quarters the day we arrived. The next day they wanted to go see the palace, the bridge and the tower. Literally if I were a human I'd be tired. The wanted the whole country to themselves. It was literally their ultimate playground.

Ashlyn POV

Why do I need to have such a childish father? Switching seats when we were on the plane ride here seriously. Then running into pillar that is supposed to be Platform nine and three quarters at kings cross. I was surprised he didn't break the pillar. We had already gone to most of the zoos, the bridge, the tower, and Buckingham palace. I swear if I weren't half vampire I'd be tired. Today is Saturday already been here for like four five days. The time difference really messed things up.

"So this is safe right?" I asked as I looked up at the London eye. Dad laughed a little which made me worry.

"Of course it is and if it breaks and falls we'll land in water and we'll save you," my dad said trying to joke. I held on to my mom's hand tightly.

"Not helping Emmett," I heard her whisper. A worker opened the capsule door. People exited and then he nodded for my mom, dad, Shane and I to go on.

I hesitantly got in the capsule and sat down on the wooden bench in the middle. It slowly went up and I couldn't help, but jump up and hold onto my mom's hand for dear life. We were up so high that the thought isn't funny. Shane smiled at me and went closer to the window with dad. I took a small step closer, but went back to where I had been the minute I looked at the view because I stupidly looked down as well. The eye slowly made its way back down.

I closed my eyes each time we stopped because the eye shook a little. As our capsule was finally at the bottom I let out a breathe. A worker opened the capsule door and we stepped out. My feet were wobbly, but I managed. I can't tell you how happy I was to be on land.

"That wasn't so bad was it?" my dad said smiling. Shane shook his head as I let out a laugh.

"According to who, thing one or thing two?" I asked, mom hugged me and laughed, while both Shane and Dad huffed and shook their heads.

We walked around the area then went back to then took a taxi to Shakespeare's Globe theatre. It was amazing; the stage had beautiful old wooden floors. The seats were like benches and the paint was still the original, never once repainted or anything. I was surprised it was still standing, but of course dad had to ruin it by telling us everything had been refurbished and what not. We were given a tour around the theatre. We saw original props, the changing rooms, where Shakespeare wrote some of his plays. There were creepy underground tunnels. Every step you took echoed. Shane and I got to go onto the stage before people actors did a little performance for us.

We walked around Shakespeare City walk. There were shops that sold parchment paper, ink bottles, and those cool quill pens. Shane and I both got all three. We each got about two hundred sheets of parchment paper, three ink bottles, and two quill pens. We walked around into some older stores that sold herbs; it gave me and Shane the chills it reminded me of a witches store. We went into an old bookstore. It had many old books; some were first editions or the first copy that came out. Mom bought four; she got the 1912 version Robin Hood by Henry Gilbert, the 1909 version of Peter and Wendy by J.M Berrie, the 1906 version of Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens by J.M Berrie, and the 1903 Version of The Story of King Arthur and His Knights by Howard Pyle.

I can't wait to be able to read them. It's actually quite sad when I think about it. Not once did I ever read any of these children books when I was younger, but instead I read harder stories like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Oliver Twist, Treasure Island, A tale of Two Cities, Sense and Sensibility, The adventures of Huckleberry Finn and what not. When mom realized both Shane and I had no idea who Peter Pan was she said we were going to go to Kensington Garden's before we leave because that were Peter is. I was excited to meet him, but then she told us that Peter Pan is only a fictional character and his statue is there. Not cool, but I still want to go.

Bella POV

I saw Renesmee run around for the past three day excitedly. She started counting down the days to when we would go to Ireland. I couldn't help, but feel excited with her. Her excitedness just filled the room and was contagious. And I have never been to Ireland. I watched as she played outside with Jacob and Edward. She grew so much in such a small amount of time. I looked at Alice who was concentrated on a magazine.

"Hey Alice," I said, she looked up from her magazine and stared at me, "will Emmett, Rose and the kids be there? You did say the whole family." She looked at me for a moment than shook her head.

"They don't think the kids are ready to meet everyone, especially with the year they've had. The volturi, Shane's Biological father, Ashlyn getting sick. The kids are on the lookout all the time wherever they go. They make sure they know every possible exit, and observe everything around them. Rose say's they are getting better though, lightening up a bit. She hopes this summer will take them out of all that," Alice said.

"God, I can only imagine what they are going through. Have you seen either of them? Ashlyn and Shane, besides in the family video? You video chat the most with Rose."

"Yes, I have. They both are so gorgeous. Oh… oh and Shane is going to be such a heartbreaker. He so handsome. They are both small for the age they are supposed to look like, but really smart, kind, and beautiful. I can't wait till they comeback. I get to go shopping for them."

"For who?" Renesmee asked coming back inside the house with Jacob and Edward.

"For your cousins…oh. Family Video," Alice said excitedly and ran upstairs. Carlisle followed behind Alice, shaking his head smiling. Esme then came inside from the front yard. "I can't believe you tried to hide this from us," Alice said waving a DVD disc in the air. She turned on the T.V, changed the channel then put the DVD in the DVD player. We watched as it slowly started.

Someone was walking up the stairs towards the noise of the clanging, and jumping. Holding the camera in a good position, it never moved or swayed how it usually would when someone is walking.

"You're not gonna beat me today Shane," Ashlyn said. Her bedroom door opened and out came Shane and Ashlyn fencing in there pajamas. They weren't sweating or tired. Both had faces of determination. Ashlyn made a move and Shane was no longer able to fight. He had no weapon anymore.

"Oh come one," Shane said.

"Next time. Maybe," Ashlyn replied smiling. They both went into their own rooms. The camera went back downstairs and showed Emmett cooking.

"What in Earth are you making Emmett McCarty Cullen? It smells horrible," Esme said. She was the one holding the camera.

"The kids don't like plain eggs. They have to have something with it, so I'm making them egg's with Polski Kielbasa aka Sausage. They eat them with tortilla which I think is weird, but Rosalie wanted them to eat all types of food, and they like Tortilla's. I would have made French toast, but we don't have cinnamon sugar," He said. A while later both Shane and Ashlyn came down. Shane was wearing Levi Carpenter Jeans, a black shirt with grey and light blue stripes and grey and light blue Nike's. Ashlyn was wearing skinny jeans, a turquoise colored shirt with a peace sign design, a black and white striped polyester vest, a butterfly silver necklace and white ballet flats.

"Smells delicious dad," Ashlyn said. She got herself a plate and served herself, Shane doing the same after her.

"So what do you kiddies have planned for today?" Emmett asked.

"It's raining," both Ashlyn and Shane said in sync.

The video was black for a second then started another video of the same day.

"Reading! Are you serious?" Emmett said, "No… I won't have this, no kids of mine are going to read when it's raining outside on a day they don't have to read." Emmett grabbed their books and set them down on top of the highest shelf making both kids look evilly at him.

"We were enjoying the peace," Shane muttered.

"Well enjoy doing something else…Like ooh play music, rock out, learn new songs, or we can have campfire using the chimney, or we can be creative and redecorate the house," Emmett suggested.

"Can I get a horse?" Ashlyn asked.

"No, sorry sweetie, but your mom would kill me."

"let's be creative," Shane and Ashlyn said.

"I don't think redecorating the house is a good idea Emmett when rose comes back from the store she'll be angry," Carlisle said coming into the room.

"I know. I bought all kinds of clay, and artsy stuff, let's go in the kitchen," Emmett said coming back with a bag filled with Clay, fuzzy wire, fuzzy balls, paint, paint brushes, construction paper, foam stickers, crayons, glue sticks, colored pencils, markers, roller stamps, and smocks. The kids colored, painted, argued, and when Rosalie came home she was shocked by all the art supplies on the table. She was happy though that nothing had ended up on the floor or walls.

"How come we've never done stuff like this before mom?" Ashlyn asked.

"Because when you were younger you got all this stuff all over you, the floor, and the wall. It got really messy," Rosalie answered. She too sat down at the table and started doodling.

The video ended and Alice looked at me.

"You were right he is going to be a heart breaker. He's so cute too," I said, Alice nodded.

"I don't know how I never noticed there southern accent before until now," Alice said smiling.

"Actually it's not a southern accent. It's a country twang that the kids have," Jasper corrected. Alice and I laughed at jaspers facial expression. He looked angry at the fact that Alice said they had a southern accent.

"Shane's a good drawer," Renesmee said.

"He's even a better singer, actually both of them are," Alice said. Esme and Carlisle both nodded in agreement.

"They don't like to sing in front of anyone, but they'll be singing in their rooms forgetting that we have vampire hearing," Carlisle said.

"I want to hear them sing, can we go visit them?" Renesmee asked me. It caught me by surprise; she was jealous of them lately or showed no interest in them at all until now.

"You won't have too, they are moving back after Ashlyn and Shane's fifth birthday. They are only a day apart," Alice said. Everyone looked surprised at her. Esme and Carlisle then smiled.

"They are!" Renesmee yelled, "I mean they are…Cool." Renesmee then got up and walked to her room. Edward and I looked at each other.

"What's wrong with her now? I'm tired of her jealousy," I said.

"It's not that love. She's a little nervous, they out number her. Two against one, apparently she said something that offended them and she's quite positive that they will try and get revenge," Edward said.

"What in the world did she say? When did she even speak with them?" Edward didn't say anything, and then looked straight at Alice.

"The day Esme and Carlisle came back from Tennessee I skyped with Rosalie and she asked her kids to talk with Renesmee. They told Renesmee about their daily schedule and how it's like a schools schedule. Renesmee then asked what Rosalie does if they are in trouble because they seemed really scared when she first saw them because they were trying to explain to Rose that they'd didn't do anything wrong. Shane told her that Rose doesn't hit them or anything. Then Ashlyn realized Renesmee thought Rose hit them and Renesmee said and I quote, "Well it's just that you were scared when I first saw you, you were trying to explain that neither of you broke anything nor did anything wrong. And then when you started to tell me about your schedule, I mean who does that. It sounds as if you're in a strict boarding school were you get hit if you miss behave. It's almost as if you live with Ms. Viola Swamp who's a bitch". I scolded Renesmee and Ashlyn just flipped. Shane calmed her down though…Didn't Renesmee tell you… I grounded her for a week and gave her talk, but I told her she had to tell you." Alice said. Edward looked was Angry, everyone else was shock. Jacob and Seth looked sad that Renesmee would say something like that.

"Renesmee Carlie Cullen get down here now!" I yelled. I heard her slowly open her door and walk down the stairs. All eyes were on her. She stayed a few feet away from us knowing she was in trouble. Carlisle, Esme, Jasper, Alice, Seth and Jacob all went their separate ways. "When did you start thinking it was okay to use the word Bitch?" I asked. She looked shocked, and then looked down at the floor.

"I didn't mean it. it came out before I could stop myself," she silently said.

"You know your aunt would never hurt you, so what made you think she hit them. Especially when you knew what kind of environment Shane had lived in before?" Edward asked.

"I don't know they, Ashlyn just seemed scared. She was trying to tell aunt rose that she and Shane never did anything wrong. I tried to say I was sorry, but Ashlyn was really angry and Shane was trying to calm her down." Renesmee looked up at us and you could easily see the regret in her eyes and facial expression.

"Sweetie you have to think about what you're going to say before you say it. How come you didn't tell us?" I asked.

"Aunt Alice was disappointed in me and I didn't want to see the same expression she had on your faces," she mumbled.

"There are always going to be times were we are going to be disappointed in each other, but that doesn't mean we'll stop loving you. Were your parents we can never stop loving you," I said.

"You're grounded for a week for not telling us," Edward said.

"Okay," she said. I pulled her toward me and hugged her. Edward gave her a kiss on the forehead. She went back up to her room and closed the door.

"Softie," Edward muttered to me.

"What! I can't help it. I'm sorry, but she looked so sad and we both saw that she regretted what she said," I argued.

"Sure," he laughed. I hit him playfully then sat down on his lap and kissed him. However I couldn't help but think how things would change when Rose, Em the kids come back home.

"Everything will work out fine," Edward assured me as if he had been reading my mind.
