Renesmee's POV
We reached the big white house quickly, during the whole journey I did not move my eyes off from dad, who looked ever so lost, not like usual.
As we entered the house Aunty Alice greeted us at the door, and told us that we arrived too late to the house that everyone else had already left, and that we had less than 20minutes before the Volturri arrived. We left the house instantly and arrived in the meadow, where everyone was waiting for us. Seth came up to me, and soothed me so quickly, that I forgot that I might die at the end of the day. We had to wait for around 2minutes after our arrival, until The Volturri had arrived.
Aro and Grandpa Carlise were the ones who steeped forward and greeted each other. I looked up at dad and saw he was reading things he didn't want to. I looked around at everyone in my family, for the last time. Without looking at mum, dad, or anyone I steeped out in front of Aro.
"Hello Uncle Aro, it is very nice to meet again, how have you been?" I asked as confidently as I could. I didn't have to wait long before he answered slowly, like he was uncertain, for why I looked up at dad who was standing there with a massive grin on his face. "It is truly...nice to see you again...Renesmee...I am fine, how about yourself?" "I'm fine uncle, thank you for asking. How may I be of service to you uncle?"
"We will discuss that in just a bit, but I have I have to say, you are quite an image, a pure product of Bella and Edward. Now if you move over to the side so that I can speak to Edward." He replied again softly. "Of course uncle, dad can you please step forward." I answered and went to stand between Seth and mum, who both held my hand tightly.
"Welcome Aro, how have you been and what has made you make a visit?" Dad asked with a smile on his face. "Well I came to make Renesmee's decision, remember six years before I told you that I would come to check on how she is and whether to-" mum cut him off and replied softly and calmly, "Aro please don't say anything, she still doesn't understand fully" he respected it and answered, "of course Bella, but I have to say that you are not giving your daughter enough credit, if you haven't realised she understands exactly what is happening."
Everyone turned to look at me and then back at Aro, "now Edward I have to ask simple questions, which you may know in a while." He said and then backed off to stand next to Alec and Jane.
Edward's POV
I stepped out towards Aro, and he started, Edward I wish not to ask the questions aloud, unless you wish me to.
I replied quickly, so that he could go quickly before Alec and Jane started to hurt my family, "no I think it is easier if you ask in your mind, please I would appreciate that, and I'll answer like this."
Of course I respect your decision, remember Edward I mean no harm to anyone in your family.I just nodded and went along, right lets start, has she gone out of control, killing random people?
"Of course not, we have kept away from dangers like that, her and Bella have not killed a human to this day!" was I was able to get out. Ahh that is really good, but does that mean she doesn't go school? "No Aro it does not mean that, she has attended school properly, we have made sure." That is good, last question before I go off to make my decision, now has she found a companion or is she willing to stay single for eternity? Was his next question for which I answered so simply, "Seth please step forward, Aro this is her companion, and before you think anything, I am not willing to go against my daughter's happiness just because he is a shape-shifter, he has helped our family so much." And before he started anything, I stepped up to him, and he held out his hand and I showed him everything that he needed to see. It took a while but was over soon. He opened his eyes and looked up, "Edward please give a few minutes while I make up my mind, and one last thing, does she still have that ability?"
I replied calmly, and quickly, "yes she does and she uses it rarely, because she ahs adapted herself to use less as she has humans around her for most of the day, as she is in school, you must understand."
"Of course I do Edward, now Jane and Alec please follow me, we are going to away for a few minutes." They left back into the woods.
