Chapter 8: Reunited
Alexia's POV
I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Edward and Bella were coming. My grandparents were coming. I was going to meet my grandparents. I was really excited. Even though they didn't know that I existed.
The rest of the family seemed just as happy as I was that they were coming. It was a bit of shock to them. But apparently they and Carlisle contact each other, usually through email, once in a big blue moon and that's how they knew where we were.
By 7pm all of the Cullens had left to the airport. Alice didn't know what time they were going to land but she had a feeling that it would be after 9pm.
I was watching TV when I suddenly heard the doorbell ring. I looked at the clock which read 8:03. Could it be them already? But Alice was sure that they wouldn't land until after nine. Perhaps she was wrong?
I heard the doorbell ring again and I literally jumped out of my seat and ran to the window. I saw a young woman that looked exactly like me and she was with a bronze haired boy. It was them, Edward and Bella. It was definitely them.
I opened the door and they just stared at me in complete shock. Especially Bella. I can't say I blame her. We really do look exactly like each other.
"Who are you and where is Carlisle and the others?" Edward asked me.
"Well I'm assuming they are at the airport. Alice had a vision that you two would be coming although she had no idea what time you would arrive. I guess her vision was a little off"
"How do you know about Alice's visions?" Bella was the one to ask.
"and who are you human?" Bella said with a lot of emphasis on the 'human' part.
"First of all I know about Alice's visions because I've been staying with them for the past few days. I've known about vampires, shape shifters, and hybrids all of my life. I can recognize them all from a mile away"
"You still haven't answered us about who you are" Bella said. "You're a human so how can you have possibly known about us all your life?"
Edward then grabbed my arms and growled.
"answer her" he said in a menacing voice.
"Ow! Will you let me go you are hurting me" I said as bruises started forming on my arms. I was fighting back the tears that I could feel forming.
"Edward let her go" I was relieved to hear Carlisle's voice.
Edward released me. But he didn't look too happy about it.
"Carlisle why do you have a human here? She could be a threat. A liability"
"She's not Edward. She is family"
"How?" Edward asked.
"She is yours and Bella's granddaughter" Carlisle said.
"What?!" Both Edward and Bella said at the same time.
"What are you saying?" Bella asked.
"I'm saying that Renesmee and Jacob had kids. This is their daughter Alexia. She ran away and it seems that fate decided to bring her to us"
Edward and Bella stared at me with new eyes.
"You're really her daughter? My granddaughter?" Bella said.
"Yup. Your only granddaughter actually" Next thing I know Bella is hugging the life out of me. She's sobbing as she hugs me. And I find myself hugging her back. Bella, my grandmother.
She eventually let me go only for me to be hugged to death by my grandfather.
"I'm sorry" he said.
"For what?" I question.
"For hurting you" he said. "I didn't mean to do that"
"It's okay" I said. "I lived with four guys, three of them didn't know their strength half the time?"
"Four guys?" Bella said in shock.
"My father and my three brothers Jacob Jr., Mark, and Leo"
"So we have four grandchildren and we didn't even know it?" Bella said. "Increible"
"We are quadruplets. Don't know how my mom managed to be pregnant with all of us at the same time"
"Sounds like, thanks to the mutt, they had a litter" Edward laughed.
"Ouch!" Edward shouted when Bella whacked the back of his head. "What was that for?"
"For one you called Jacob, her father, a mutt. And second for just being plain inapproriate" Bella seethed.
A little while later we had all of our plane tickets to Wyoming booked. We had to wait a few more hours before we could go to the airport.
But that just meant that I got to spend more quality time with my family, especially my grandparents. I already loved them. I never once asked what happened between them and my mom, even though I really wanted to know. I just didn't think that it was the appropriate time to ask just yet.
I eventually fell asleep only to be awoken a few hours later to go to the airport.
I avoided Rosalie at all costs. Instead I preferred to be near my grandparents, who were only to happy to have me nearby.
"Alexia why did you run away?" Bella asked me once we were on the plane.
"Well all I ever did was get in the way. They pretty much ignored me and the only time they seemed to notice me is when my humanity annoyed them. Like, for example, if I took too long getting dressed. I mean, they never noticed me when I wished they would have. I hated it and I couldn't take it anymore. So I left"
"Alexia I don't think Nessie or Jacob would ever do that to one of their own kids" Bella said. "Not on purpose anyway"
"You know Carlisle said the same thing. But I just have a hard time believing it. They're probably happy that I'm not around to burden them anymore"
"Alexia don't ever say that again" Edward said. "Kids are never a burden on their parents and I know Nessie and Jacob well enough that they would never purposely hurt one of their own kids. I'm sure they are going crazy looking for you right now"
"I don't know" I said.
"Look Alexia" Bella began. "Just listen to them and see what they have to say"
"Okay" I said.
When we landed the sun was shining brightly. Unfortunately that meant that we were stuck inside until the sun went down. I could have left of course, but I chose to remain with my family.
After what seemed like an eternity the sun finally went down. We rented several cars and drove as far as we could. I had given them all directions to my house.
We walked through the woods. I didn't like that very much because I could barely see but the rest of my family had no such problems.
"Wait" Edward said throwing out a hand to stop me. "I smell one of those wolves. But I don't recognize the scent"
"It's probably just one of my brothers. I forgot to tell you they could phase didn't I?"
"Yes you did forget to mention that"
W walked closer and closer to my house and eventually it loomed into view. I was surprised by how dark it was. I saw a wolf laying out in the front of my house. I immediately recognized the wolf as Jacob Jr. His tan fur color was a dead giveaway.
"You all should stay here. They don't take to kindly to vampires and if he sees you he might try to kill you"
I didn't hear their response but they stayed behind. Jr was fast asleep. I wondered why he was here. All of the others were gone. Speaking of which where were they?
I tried pushing him to wake him up, but it didn't work. I knew kicking would not work. I'd just break my foot instead. So I grabbed a big rock and threw it at him as hard as I could.
It was just enough to wake him up. He stood up the second he saw me and walked right over to me. He started licking my face happily which was weird because he never did that. If I wasn't mistaken I was sure that he was crying. Tears had begun falling out of his eyes.
I threw my arms around his massive neck as I realized just how much I actually did miss him.
Maybe I had it all wrong. Maybe my brothers really did care.
