Chapter 4

Blissful

Days went by since Alice and Jasper told us they bought a house right across the street from us, and Alice explained she is finishing her last year of high school in Vancouver along with Rennie and Jacob. We call Renesme, Rennie now because it is much easier, and we found out she is having a baby girl, so we are having discussions on what to call her bundle of joy.

Rennie says she and Jacob have a big decision to make today, and I'm nervous. It has been a four months since we first heard about the engagement and pregnancy, but this past week I have been having my visions back. This time, they are completely different; I keep seeing a little girl, about the age of two or three, wandering in a forest all alone. She has pin- straight long black hair, deep brown eyes, and very dark skin. She looks like a little girl version of Jake. Her nature looks poetic, and kind. Things always look so peaceful, until these neon yellow eyes appear in the distance. A sense of urgency is sent through me to help this innocent child until she morphs into this horrific beast. Her eyes turn bright red and really small, her nails turn into long eerie claws, her face turns hairy, her mouth becomes long and grimy, and the teeth are long, sharp, and pointy. Her arms are pale white, her chest is hairy, and her feet turn into paws, with long nails. I try to make it out, but it is very scary. The beasts appearance stays for a mere six seconds and then it runs off into the night, and then voices are heard in the background calling, "Lennox, where are you, Leni?" And then it stops. Everything goes blank, it vanishes, and the vision is over.

Edward sees this too. Well, whenever I kiss him, or think about it with my shield off. He is scared too, but shrugs it off.

Today, I will have to shrug it off, as well. Today is Lily and Anthony's school Christmas Assembly. Edward and I are taking the day off work to go watch, and Jake, Rennie, and Alice are skipping school today, Jasper has gotten a job as a Real Estate agent, seeing how he can change the moods on how people feel about different homes, and he is taking the morning off to watch his niece and nephew.

"Jake, Rennie, and the twins, hurry up!" I yelled up the stairs at the slow pokes of the morning. Edward and I were waiting at the bottom of the stairs with our cameras, ready to take pictures of our little Mr. And Mrs. Claus. They were picked to be the two leading roles in the play this morning. Which is no surprise considering how cute they are.

"Granny and Gramps we are coming. Get ready to take our pictures! We are so excited!" Lily squealed as she came prancing down the stairs like she was impersonating a reindeer.

Edward and I stared in aww at the cuteness of our grandchildren. Anthony had on little red Santa Claus outfit that Rennie and Alice had made for him, he had is hair slicked back underneath a white Santa wig and beard. He had little black leather boots on his feet and Rennie must have had put blush on his cheeks. Also, he had a red Santa hat onto of his head. Lily had green and red leggings on her legs that were tucked underneath a pair of black leather boots with a white fur rim. She had a red skirt on with a white blouse and a red camisole overtop. She had brown freckles, three on each cheek, over top of blushed cheeks. Her hair was braided down each side of her head with a red Santa hat on her head. They both looked so adorable you couldn't take your eyes off of them.

"My, my, you two look quite extravagant." Edward complimented with a smile on his gorgeous face. "If I may say so myself, I could think you two were the real deals, except for the height part." We all laughed at his statement.

"Thanks, Grampy. I get my looks from you." Anthony joked while winking at Edward.

"Hey, what am I? Chopped liver?" Jake asked offended, with a smile, showing his bright, white teeth.

"No, you're just liver." Lily replied back while running and jumping in Jake's arms.

"Alright, enough of this, it's time to go. Come on Rennie." I yelled up the stairs getting agitated.

"Oh, one thing, Bells. Renesme would like for you to call her Nessie again, she is tired of Rennie. Please?" Jake asked in a sorry tone.

"Fine, anything to get her cute bum down the stairs happily." I laughed while smiling at Jake.

"Honey, its okay to come down now." Jake explained.

"Thank you mom! I love you!" Nessie yelled full of love while running down the stairs half- vampire speed while running into my arms unexpectedly.

"Any day, and I love you too, Nessie! Now, let's go." I demanded for the last time.

With this we left outside with the children following behind us. Jake and Nessie went with us, while Anthony and Lily went with Alice and Jazz.

"Mom, we have some news concerning my baby." Nessie explained. For some reason I felt guilty, or worried. What was wrong with my grandchild? I did notice Nessie's baby bump wasn't growing very fast lately.

"Ness? What is wrong with my baby?" I asked very worriedly.

"Nothing, we just have a name picked out for the baby. I hope you like it." She spoke excitedly.

"Jake and I have put very much thought into this, and we have agreed on Lennox. I hope you like it."

My heart sank. That name rang a bell, louder than the bell on the clock tower the day I saved Edward's life.

Edward looked at me and we stared at each other, knowing what was coming in the future.

I hoped you guys enjoyed this chapter. Review, is the magic word. Lol.
