"I'm getting sick of Aro!" I complained to Edward as we headed back to our house (at human speed so as not to wake up Nessie). I felt slightly guilty about complaining about our guest, since it was only the second week that he had been here. But the issue that I was having with him was one that bugged me tremendously. It reminded me of times when Charlie would try to be the boss of me when I was human, and my natural teenage instincts would fight back. But I wasn't human, and Aro wasn't my father, thank goodness for that. But the former leader of the Volturi kept trying to boss the Cullens around, insisting on us bringing him his "meals" from outside of town. When we refused for varius reasons, Aro would argue until Rosalie snapped at him, and then Aro went to hunt for himself. As he adjusted to Cullen life, he only became more demanding, even arguing about hiding when Charlie came over. That precaution was one that we Cullens thought that he'd understand; it was for vampire society's protection, not anything else. But Aro always acted like we had something personal against him, and played the guilt trip on Carlisle.

I looked up at Edward's face to watch his reaction. He frowned.

"Personally, I agree with you, love," he murmured quietly. "But in all honesty, he's a guest, and really we can't kick him out, although very much I would like to. Maybe even worse."

"Edward!" I whispered, shocked. I made sure that my shield was down so that he could hear exactly why I was shocked. And it was because although I harbored a dislike of Aro, I wasn't yet ready to kill him.

Edward's frown deepened. "You don't have to hear his thoughts." Edward muttered through clenched teeth. I rolled my eyes. Judging on Edward's reaction, I could probably guess what Aro was thinking about. There was nothing, except for maybe Renesmee, that Edward was more protective of than me. Edward's face pulled up into that beautiful, heart-stopping crooked smile of his. He reached up to gently sweep my hair away from my face. I sighed, closing my eyes, and leaned into his touch. I wasn't afraid of walking with my eyes closed; for although that would have been a life-threatening mistake for me as a human, as a vampire it was physically impossible for me to be hurt by a silly tree. I could sense it when Edward stopped beside me, and automatically, I stopped too. Opening my eyes, I caught a brief view of the ground before Edward swept me up into his arms. Pretending to be angry, I crossed my arms, pouted, and chatised him with my thoughts. Edward only smiled, and leaned down to kiss me gently before setting me carefully down on my feet. Suddenly, I remembered about Renesmee, sleeping in my arms. Edward opened the door for me, and I walked into our cottage. I place Nessie gently in her crib before turning to Edward.

"What should we do about Aro?" I asked him. He sighed.

"Talk to Carlisle, probably," he murmured. "I can come get him. This is becomimg unbearable for most of us." And Edward was out the door before I had a chance to protest. I sighed, sitting down on the large white bed. I could hear the voices of Carlisle and Edward approaching, and stood up. I walked into the hallway to greet them.

"Carlisle, please, Aro's presence is disturbing the life of Bella and I," Edward pleaded. It was probably uneccessary, since Carlisle looked like he was ready to kick Aro out himself. Carlisle sighed deeply.

"We'll have to get Aro out of town in order to have a decent family meeting." he said. Edward smiled.

"I can take care of that, Carlisle," he told my vampire father. "I'll just tell him about diffferent city that he can...hunt...in." Carlisle winced visibly when Edward said hunt. But Carlisle knew that there was no other way of getting Aro out of hearing range.

"I'll go with you, Edward," I said quickly. I really didn't want to be seperated from my vampire husband. I looked at Carlisle, nervous about giving him too much to do.

"Carlisle, would you mind watching Renesmee for a little bit?" I asked hesitantly. Carlisle smiled happily.

"Oh, I'd be glad to!" he replied cheerily. I smiled. Renesmee had my entire family wrapped tightly around her little pinky.

"Ready to go, love?" Edward asked. I nodded, smiling, and we were at the house in approximately two seconds.

"Aro?" Edward called as we stepped inside. Instantly, the ancient was in front of us. He looked out of place in this room, with his dark swirling robe that he still wore from the Volturi.

"Yes, my friends?" he asked eagerly. He held his hand out for our thoughts, but none of us did that. Because then he'd know our intentions of kicking him out.

"Aro, we have found a place for you to hunt more openly. There's a bigger population in this city." As soon as Edward said that, Aro was on his feet.

"Where?" he asked excitedly. Edward pulled out a map, and pointed to a city that was across the country.

"Over there, Chicago is what it's called. You can borrow our Mercedees." Aro swept up the keys, and flew into the garage. Once he was out of hearing distance, Edward began, turning to the rest of our family.

"Everyone, we need to have a family meeting. Carlisle is at our house, watching Renesmee. Would you mind coming to our cottage with us?" Everyone nodded, and we all ran to our little cottage, joining Carlisle around Nessie's crib.

"Ok, Aro is getting on our nerves," Edward began quietly. His irritation was evident on his face. I looked around, and sw most of our family nodding. In fact, everyone.

"What should we do?"

OK, I'm sorry, I know this wasn't my best chapter. But I haven't updated for a while, and besides, having Aro living with the Cullens was honestly getting on my nerves! So, yeah, a nice and maybe critical, mistake-pointing-out, inspiring review would be nice! Thanks again to all of my wonderful reviewers, I'm going for 200 now.
