CHANGING NAME (CANDY POV)
"Hurray!" Ella seemed very excited "Grown-ups one, Kids two"
"Yup, just like the amount of kids going up against the grown-ups" Carmie announced. "So this means that power class is over right?" I have a bad feeling about this…
"I guess so" Uncle Eddie said, and we all jumped up for joy.
"Rosette I've been thinking…" I said
"About what? If you are going to do something to me I'm against it" ugh. I can't believe she cut me off!
"No, nothing like that just what do you think about JAZZALICE?"
"I think that it's a little to…" TO WHAT! "Shoot what's the word? Um… to out in the open."
"What do you mean to out in the open?"
"Like to Complex and CONFUSING!"
"Well I like complex;" I defended "But as for confusing… I don't think so"
"What if someone is calling Jasper and Alice" I made a your-point-face "and it sounded like Jazzalice"
"Rosette, Candy do you want to play vampire tag with us?" Carmie asked. Lucky she was just saved by the bell; or the call to make it more direct.
"Sure odd girl out is it!" I said "Ella no cheating!"
"Rock, paper, scissors, Rosette you are out!" I said "Can't catch us!"
"Oh, yeah watch me" Damn she caught me.
"Hey guys come inside!" Uncle Eddie said to us "GIRLS, sorry"
"5 more minutes please" I was too absorbed to look who it was, or to even concentrate on the voice that was speaking.
"Sorry, but you have to come in" damn it, oh well at least I'm not going to be out this game.
"Haha so how was your game of tag?" daddy (Jasper) asked
"Short" Rosette replied
"Hey Mommy (Alice) can I change my name?" I wonder if I should've asked daddy first "to Jazzalice"
"What's wrong with Jalice? I think that it is a nice name" Puppy dog face time! "But I think that Jazzalice is a nice name"
"Daddy what do you think about me changing my name?"
"NO!" Shoot.
"But"
"No!"
"Why?"
"I don't need to explain myself. My answer is no and that's final" I wonder why he doesn't want me to change my name
"Jasper…" Mommy tried to reason with him
"My answer is final. Sorry..." he said that with a pained look on his face then stormed out of the room
"Candy are you okay?" Renesmee asked "Yep, I'm fine. I'm just shocked"
After the family meeting, which I wasn't really paying attention to, I went up to my room (Edwards old room), which was also rosette's room, well half of it anyway. And I laid faced down on my bed wondering why dad did not want me to change my name. I must have been laying there for a long time because I fell asleep, and didn't wake up until morning.
"Jalice" Mommy told me I wonder what about "Do you want to know why your dad did not want you to change your name?"
"OF COURSE! I mean sure."
"You did know that your dad was in the military right" I nodded "well before he was there he got into a big fight with his dad. He got so angry with him that he had joined the military and changed his name. But just after his name was changed and the paperwork was filed his dad had a heart attack. His dad survived but had to stay in the hospital, and they would not let anybody in there to see him that wasn't family, and since they needed to show a letter of who they were, your father didn't have that so he couldn't go in to see him. And ever since then he always regretted changing his name and always thought that what happened to cause his father's death was all his fault."
"But it wasn't his fault, his father died of natural causes right?" I said
"Candy, it's not that simple" Mommy said "He never knew rather or not his father had forgiven him, because he was never able to apologize"
Just then I seen daddy walk in the door. I ran up to him and hugged him, he knew why I did it too because he could sense my sympathy for him. "She told you didn't she?" he said and I jus nodded, still hugging him.
"Jalice you know if you want to Change your name you can…" I shook me head not wanting to change my name anymore
