Normally when a loved one opens their eyes in hospital for the first time people are happy. Well maybe that's true but there has never been anything normal about the Cullens. Consequently when Renesmee Cullen finally opened her eyes she was greeted by scowling family members. They were all glaring at her except Carlisle who was talking to a nurse in the doorway. Eventually she left and he shut the door and joined the rest of the infuriated vampires in glaring at her.
"Renesmee Carlie Cullen" muttered her mother, "Why were you standing in the middle of a road?" She yelped, failing to restrain her anger.
"I didn't even notice" she answered honestly. However it was clearly not a good enough answer.
"Do you realise you could have been killed?" asked her father in a patronising tone.
"No I couldn't!" she snapped back. Silence fell over the room. Everybody knew she would have never really been hurt but they all felt she deserved to be told off anyway; however nobody could quite find the right words.
"Maybe…but that outfit was not unbreakable…and you ripped it to shreds!" fumed Alice but her anger only caused the other vampires to laugh. Renesmee stared at her leg and then at Carlisle and then back at her leg.
"Why?" she asked while attempting to move her right leg.
"Oh, well we needed to make you look less supernatural and more human so we had to break your leg" answered Emmett while still chuckling.
"You broke my leg!?!" she screeched while frantically waving he limbs around. Her behaviour only caused them to laugh more.
"No we didn't, I simply have put a cast on so it looks like it's broken" answered Carlisle after letting her panic for a few seconds.
After a couple of fake scans and fake pain relief medication prescriptions Carlisle released Renesmee from hospital. The car journey home was more akward that the one to the party had been.
"So…can I take this stupid cast off when I get home?" asked Renesmee. Simultaneously her parents glared at her before her father snapped his eyes back to focus on the road.
"No you can't…it can be your punishment…you have to wear it!" smirked her mother.
"I'll just break it off then" grumbled Renesmee under her breath however, of course, her parents could hear her and immediately returned to glaring at their daughter. She sighed loudly and began to curl her delicate hands into tight fists before stretching them out. For some reason she found this a great time waster. 'Stupid leg…stupid car…stupid horizon…stupid parents! STUPID PARENTS!' She repeated her last thought over and over again, each time more loudly hoping that her dad would be listening as he often was.
"Stupid radio!" yelped her mother and both her and her father burst out laughing at her cursing of inanimate objects. It was something that Renesmee had obviously inherited from her mother.
She smiled at her bemused mother and smirking father and subconsciously apologised to her father for calling them stupid, before resting her head against the shaking glass and closing her eyes.
