CHAPTER EIGHT- As Time goes on.

ISABELLA

Back with my family the way it should be. Everything in my life right now was perfect. I know I keep saying that but come on! I mean do you really think it could get any better? I had a loving, wonderful, gorgeous boyfriend. I had a fantastic, beautiful, cheeky daughter and a great family.

At the moment my life was on that line of complete serenity. We would do something different almost everyday. This was surprising considering we were vampires and we had forever to do things. One day we would just stay home and be a family, others we would go out, or be vampires.

Pretty much every night after Renesmee had been put to bed; Edward and I would be together as couples should be together. Emmett would always come up with new jokes about us, like now for instance.

"Something really bad happened to you two last night." Emmett stated, I rolled my eyes,

"What Emmett?" Edward had gone out to hunt with Nessie, why I had stayed home I don't know?

"Nothing!" He cracked up laughing,

"Emmett that one wasn't even as funny as your other ones!" He rolled his eyes at me this time,

"Okay let me think..."

"OH! I got one! You should blame Edward's mother for your lack of sex life before you were taken...why? Because she always told him that the man goes on top, the woman underneath...so for ages you slept in bunk beds!" Emmett laughed again. I giggled and tried to ignore him. He wouldn't however have that.

"Bella you're a nymphomaniac."

"What's a nymphomaniac Emmett, wait scratch that I don't want to know?!"

"It's a woman who is as obsessed with sex as a man! Ergo, you!" Okay so that one was sort of funny.

Edward then walked in the door. "HEY Edward! You need to invest in a Mercedes-Benz 380L convertible; it's one of the many mechanical devices that increase pleasure in woman. I think Bella needs it!"

"Emmett you're forgetting your niece is in the room."

"Oh right! Hey cutie-pie. I want you to tell your daddy something okay?" He whispered something in her ear that neither Edward nor I could hear, nor could Edward read their minds either because they were in my shield. I felt like being nice to Emmett today.

"Daddy you aren't an intellectual because that would have meant you found something more interesting than sex." Nessie said in her sickly sweet voice. Both Edward and I glared at her uncle.

"What's sex?" She asked innocently.

"Something I'll tell you about when your old enough to know about it okay hun."

"But I want to know now!" She complained to me.

"Well sweetie...sex is where a man-"

"EMMETT STOP!" I yelled at him.

"Wait I think I know mama. Sex is like what Michel was doing to you that time."

"It was in a form hun, but that wasn't sex as I would describe it. Daddy will tell you later on alright?" I told her, she nodded. I turned to Edward who looked like he could crush a train.

"Bella can I talk to you alone for a moment?" I nodded and followed him out of the room.

"What did Renesmee mean? What was Michel doing to you?" I looked down,

"Michel raped me Edward." I simply stated while staring down at my feet. Then I heard a giant cracking sound that echoed around the house. I looked up from the shaking floor to see Edward standing next to what used to be a part of the wall.

"What the hell?!" Emmett yelled from the hallway. Edward growled a deep and scary sound. This was the first time I had truly been afraid of him. He had a look on his face that would frighten away Emmett.

"Bella I swear to god that I will do everything in my power to murder that scumbag." I walked tentatively over to him.

"I'm okay. Don't worry about me, it will never happen again and as far as I'm concerned it never happened." I told him. He just glared at me.

"It did happen and I will personally murder him because he did it!" I took a step back from my fuming boyfriend. He mumbled under his breath incoherently. Emmett looked confused and Nessie looked scared.

Nobody-not even Edward- scared my daughter. I turned back around to face Edward and growled at him. I put all my anger into the glare I gave him. He stopped fuming and looked at me. "Enough. You scared our daughter and you're scaring me. Stop it! You won't kill him because we won't ever see him again, understood?!" I said through clenched teeth. He looked like he was sorry and started to walk over to me.

I took a step back. He stopped and looked confused. He was probably asking himself what I was doing. "Bella."

"No." I said and turned to scoop Nessie up in my arms and walk downstairs. She wrapped him small arms around my neck and mumbled into my shoulder, "Mama, why is daddy so mad?"

"It's something you don't need to worry about Nessie." I told her while I sat down on the couch. She cuddled up into me. Emmett came back downstairs and he looked a little worried. I smiled at him to reassure him I was okay. He gave me the puppy dog look,

"Can I go play with Nessie?" He blinked several times and jutted his bottom lip out. I laughed and asked her if she wanted to play, of course she said yes. I should have realised it was a ploy to get me to talk to Edward, but frankly, I didn't want to right now.

"Bella," I sighed and patted the seat next to me. "I'm sorry I got so worked up, but I honestly couldn't control myself. He hurt you Bella and I can't let myself live if I know he has no consequences for what he did."

"I'm sorry to."

"Why do you need to be sorry?" He lifted my chin so I was looking into his eyes.

"I shouldn't have gotten angry at you for defending me. it's just, Michel is strong, really strong, you may think that you, and the rest of our family can take him...but it's not that simple."

"Bella, you're forgetting I can read minds, Alice can see the future, Jasper was in the army, Emmett has brute strength, Carlisle has his words, and Rosalie and Esme wouldn't let anything happen to Ness." Edward reassured me.

"No, Edward, I am not forgetting these things. Sure we could win in a fight with him, but he has a power as well. He can us down and put us in a dome that is unescapable, my shield does nothing against him. He could easily tie down all of you and take Ness and me."

"Bella we would stop him."

"You wouldn't be able to! You have to listen to what I'm saying Edward! He could defeat us because of his one power, even if you don't think it's so great, it stopped me from escaping for three years! It was only because of his stupidity that we got out!"

"Okay, I get it. I won't go running off to find him and kill him. I love you." He told me and placed his hands on my shoulders. I smiled softly.

"Thank-you. I just don't want you to get hurt." I wrapped my arms around his waist and pulled myself as close as possible to him. He moved his hands from my shoulders to around my whole body. He made me feel safe from the world. I sighed in contentment.

I heard a musical giggling and a booming laughter. Emmett and Renesmee walked inside. "What did uncle Em do to you?" I asked my daughter. She was covered in leaves and dirt.

"We were playing a spinning game and I knocked him down and we landed in the leaves! It was fun mummy, you have to try it! Come on!" She yelped happily and dragged me up. I shook my head and laughed as I headed outside with her. Edward and Emmett followed. The sun was shining today and I smiled. I loved the sun.

Nessie ran to Emmett and he picked her up and started to spin her around, they landed in a pile of leaves and she was giggling like crazy. "You have to try it mama!" I smiled,

"Sweetie I'm not as little as you I don't think-" I squealed as strong stone hands picked me up. I giggled when Edward started to spin me around. I moved slightly so we would land in the leaves. He chuckled and I was giggling just as much as Nessie.

"Again, again!" Nessie yelled, she was talking about Edward and I. He picked me up and again spun us around. The next time I did it to Nessie and she was in hysterics. The rest of the household came home a while later and found the four of us having a blast.

Emmett started to spin Rosalie around, Jasper picked up Alice, Esme picked up Carlisle (which was really funny and had us all on the ground laughing). We had lost our breath and only one of us actually needed to breathe.

I don't think I've laughed so hard in ages. We all headed inside not to long after we got over our laughing fit. Nessie was asleep in Esme's arms. "I think I'll go take her upstairs to bed," We nodded and smiled and she headed upstairs.

About five minutes later she came back down with a furious look on her face. "Why, is there a giant hole in my wall?!" She said angrily.

I pointed to Edward, "He did it!"

"Gee thanks Bella. Sorry Esme, I'll get it fixed up tomorrow."

"What the hell did you do?!"

"I ummm..."

"Well you see, Bella and Edward were getting jiggy and he sort of pushed her into the wall to hard...." Can you guess who said that? Ding, ding, ding we have a winner! Emmett.

"That isn't what happened, Esme. Bella told be something and I got angered and broke the wall."

"No, you didn't break the wall Edward, you DESTROYED it!" Esme was still really angry, I don't think I've seen her angry before.

"Sorry." Edward said looking like a very guilty little boy...well there wasn't anything little about him. I giggled to myself as I thought this. Everybody in the room turned to look at me,

"I was just thinking...never mind what about though...carry on!" Edward shook his head and moved over to sit next to me; Esme had calmed down-courtesy of Jasper-and we were all just sitting quietly.

"He's here." Alice said. We all looked at her, Edward growled.

"Who dear?" Carlisle asked,

"Michel. He is in Africa. He won't find you though, he'll leave and go back to America, I saw it." She stated.

"Good because if he was here that would not be good." I said.

"No, it wouldn't." Edward agreed.

A while after Alice's little vision, everything had calmed down and everybody, except Edward and I, were going hunting. Renesmee was still sleeping. "I don't want you two doing any hanky panky while we're gone so...sit!" Emmett said, jeez enough with the sex jokes! The all ran off and I just laughed,

"Well screw Emmett's orders." Edward said huskily into my ear and started kissing me. He pushed me down onto the couch and hovered above me; I wrapped my legs around his hips and pulled him closer to me.

He slid his tongue over my bottom lip and I opened my mouth to give him access. I pulled open the buttons on his shirt to reveal the smooth expanses of his heavenly chest. He ran his hands up my sides stopping at my breasts. He growled huskily into my ear causing me to giggle.

The evidence of his arousal was obvious to me; I could feel it pushing against my leg. I stealthily turned us over so I was straddling him. He groaned, "God Bella, stop teasing me!" He said.

"I wasn't doing any teasing Edward." I said as I ground my hips into his. He pulled me down on top of him,

"So that wasn't teasing?" I shook my head against his chest. He pealed my top off and added it to the pile that was forming on the floor.

His pants and mine were extracted quickly as were our undergarments. We moved together in a rhythm that was well perfected from the first time we had sex. We put new clothes on soon after we had finished and went upstairs to check on Nessie. She was sleeping perfectly contentedly, smiling away to her dreams.

Edward and I picked up the pieces of the broken wall and found some of the special reconstructing glue (there was a need for that in a house that contained Emmett). We fixed the wall up and would go buy some paint today to make it look like it had before.

We headed back down to the living room when Edward suddenly stopped. "What is it?" I asked him,

"I can hear somebody's thoughts, but I don't know who it is, they know Nessie though." I gasped and ran upstairs to Renesmee, only to find Michel standing there looking smug.

"Isabella, it's so good to see you again." I growled at him and tried to move, but I couldn't. Edward stood next to me and we forward to Michel but was stopped.

Michel had us sealed in a dome. Great. Nessie was on the other side of that dome. I started to panic, he couldn't get to her, he couldn't! "Who is this then?" He asked gesturing towards Edward.

"Just leave Michel, you know I don't want to be with you, neither does Renesmee, this is Edward by the way, the love of my existence."

"Ohh... So he's the fool who knocked you up!" Edward growled fiercely at Michel. "I guess I'll be going now."

"Don't even think about touching my daughter!" Edward said loudly and angrily.

"Sorry, but you don't know what I'm thinking!"

"Actually I do, I'm a mind reader!"

"Well, that's too bad then because you can't control what I think, and considering you're in a dome, you can't control what I do either!" Michel roughly picked up Nessie who awoke with the jerk.

"What's going on?" She asked.

"Shut up brat! Say a last goodbye to mummy and daddy, you'll never see them again!" He said. Nessie looked at us and Michel turned,

"I won't be seeing you later slut, sayonara!" Michel said and jumped out the window,

"NO! RENESMEE! I LOVE YOU!" I yelled, knowing I was powerless against Michel's shield.

"BASTERD! COME BACK HERE!" Edward yelled. I fell to the floor and started sobbing dry sobs. Edward was stuck in his own bubble and was running his hands through his hair, we couldn't do anything, we couldn't even be near each other.

Everybody came home, but none of them realised what was happening. I looked at Edward and screamed. They all ran upstairs. "You have to get her back!" Was all I said. They all stood there open mouthed.

"We can't move, he shut us in a dome, follow his scent, Nessie's scent. Do something!" I cried.

"Right on it." Everybody except Esme moved to go follow Michel and Nessie's scents.

She couldn't get into the dome and Edward and I couldn't get out.

It was getting darker, my light was dimming fast. I could live without Edward. I couldn't live without my sunshine.
