So, if your back again it must mean that my first chapter was at least a little bit of a success. If your just here to see where this story is going; fair enough. I don't particularly know where it's going yet either.  Don't forget to review.

Disclaimer: Standard disclaimer, I do not own any of these characters. The true genius is Stephenie Meyer.

Chapter 2

Problems

When I arrived back at the house i knew that Edward wasn't back. The house was silent and still, apart from a soft humming that was coming from upstairs. "Hey Alice." I called casually as soon as I was inside the door.

"Hey." She said, coming swiftly down the stairs. "They'll be back in about an hour". Alice informed me. She was eyeing up my outfit; jeans with a plain long sleeve cotton top. If it was Alice's world she would end up dressing me up in bright cocktail dresses every day; thank god it is not Alice's world. I waited for her to say something, but when it was obvious she wasn't going to say anything apart from complain about my outfit I went to sit down in the living room. Of course, I didn't need to sit down, I was just as comfortable standing, but it looked more human. "Where is everyone?" I asked, before she could begin moaning.

"Carlisle is at work, Esme is with Rose at the supermarket, getting some food for Renesmee and Jacob. Everyone else is hunting." She smiled, but it faded quickly as she saw how deep in thought I was.

"What's up?" She asked her voice full of concern. She sat down next to me and put her arm around me.

"It's just Charlie." I told her. "He's began to look deeper, looking for the slight changes. I think he's becoming curious, which means that eventually he will want to know. What do we do then? We can't tell him." Alice didn't look too concerned.

"If it comes down to it we will have to move. If it's the only way to keep Charlie safe you know we'd do it." I couldn't help but sigh. I knew that that might be the only choice all along, but it was too hard to acknowledge it.

"Thanks' Alice. Can we try and keep this from Edward for the moment? I don't want him to be concerned about me or anything. You know..." Alice rolled her eyes.

"Yes, Bella; I know what Edwards like. I have known him a little longer than you." She smiled. "Anyway, pleeeeaaaassssseeeeeee let me choose an outfit for you." She did almost like puppy dog eyes, it made me laugh.

"No." I growled, playfully but also menacing. A true vampire growl. Alice laughed. "Is it really that bad?" She asked.

"It will be when I tell Edward you've made me unhappy." She gave me a look of fake shock. "You wouldn't!" She said.

"Wanna bet?" I asked. Smiling. Alice moved so fast human eyes would have thought she was a blur. Within seconds she had me in a headlock, which wasn't particularly painful, just inconvenient. "Alice!" I moaned, as she began dragging me up the stairs. No doubt she had been shopping all day. I could have broken her hold easily, but I didn't want to disappoint my favourite sister. So, for the moment I was captive.

Within an hour she had had me try on over fifty different sets of new clothes. If I had still been human I probably would have collapsed. I have to admit, I did try to escape a couple of times before I gave it up. By the end of it Alice was ecstatic.

I heard the door open, and I quickly put my shield over Alice. She looked questioningly at me, but let it go. I sprinted down the stars straight into Edwards outstretched arms. "Hey." He said softly after I'd kissed him. "Hey." I answered back, smiling. In that moment it was as if my heart was being put back together, a hole that I didn't realise was there was being filled.

"Hi Bella." Said Jake. He looked happy, and my favourite smile appeared on his face. I couldn't help smiling back. Renesmee let go of Jake's hand and walked gracefully over to me. Within a month she had grown so much she looked like a five year old. Instead of slowing down like we had predicted, Renesmee had, for about a week, been growing twice as fast as before. I did wonder how old she would look before she stopped growing. I expect she would look more like a sister to me than a daughter eventually. I shied away from the thought; just too weird.

"Have a good time?" I asked Renesmee, bending down to her level. She nodded, and pressed her hand to my face, using her unusual gift to tell me about her day. Meanwhile Edward wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him. I stared up into his dazzling face, which held more beauty than anywhere on earth. Yet again I find myself wondering how I could possibly deserve someone like him. My whole world revolved around Edward, and a world without him would be a black hell, where life was not at all worth living; full of pain and torment.

It was a soft "Hmph." That pulled me out of this bleak thought. I looked straight into those golden eyes and saw them full of concern. "Wha...?" That was when I realised that I had subconsciously let my shield down. I pulled it back over myself; no doubt he would have heard the earlier conversation from Alice by now. "Jake, can you look after Renesmee for a little while?" I looked down and saw Renesmee's upset face. "Just for a little while. Promise." I said to her. She nodded, and walked over to Jacob.

I took Edwards hand, and together we both ran out the door.

Please review.  Hope you enjoyed it; and I'm sorry if some of the characters are a little out of character, but there's not much I can do about that.  Oh, yea and I'm sorry if any of the chapters are like, really badly named. Any suggestions welcome.
