Chapter 3.
Esme P.O.V
''So we'll be there in about 5 minutes.'' Bella told me just before hanging up the phone. I didn't know why they were coming, but it was always a pleasure to see my one and only grand-daughter. After almost a century of being alone, Edward deserved someone like Bella, she was perfect for him, and they fit perfectly together, Renesmee was a perfect blend of the two. Adam and Dylan, they were a different story entirely. I loved them to bits, but they were a lot to handle, and since there were two of them, they caused double the trouble. Carlisle and I, the whole family really, were fascinated that Bella had managed to conceive, not only once, but twice, and one of the two, after she had been changed too! All of us had wanted the same to happen to us for decades, but Rose took it the hardest, when she found out that Bella was pregnant with the twins, she went ballistic. We eventually calmed her down and she'd stopped complaining, but we all knew that inside, her still heart was ripping to pieces. And Emmett was now the only victim of her rage, although what she released on him wasn't exactly anger… I shuddered at the thought and went back to my housework.
I decided to redo Nessie's room. The girl hadn't slept here in ages and if we wanted her to come back, the room needed some serious tidying. I had the room ready with plenty of time to spare. Then I looked around, hmmm… I ran to mine and Carlisle's bedroom and took a box from under the bed. I picked up a frame I had bought weeks ago in an antique shop; I knew this would come in handy. I once again hid the box under the bed and found the perfect picture in one of my photo albums. It was one of the whole family after a hunting trip; The twins were casually lying at the front fighting over a mountain lion cub they'd caught, Nessie had an elbow on each of her brothers' heads and held her face up with her hands, Alice and Japer were sitting on a nearby tree branch, Edward was under Alice's and Jasper's tree, he had Bella slung over his shoulder facing the camera (she'd lifted her head just in time for the snapshot),Emmett was standing at the back carrying Violet and looked like he was about to drop her in the pond next to him as Rosalie smacked him in the back of the head (in the end, they actually both fell in the pond and when Emmett held out his hand for Rose's help, he pulled her in with them!), and lastly, Carlisle and myself were standing next to our grand-children, he was embracing me tightly and pretended to be biting my neck. If I knew my Nessie, which I most certainly did, she would LOVE this picture.
I placed it in her room and came out just in time to hear the door swing open as my grand-daughter lugging 3 bags behind her. I shook my head. She was so like Alice, always changing her clothes, always wearing the latest trends, the two practically lived at the mall; they always went there. I walked down the stairs and gave Nessie a big bear hug.
Nessie P.O.V
I put down my bags and let Grandma Esme give me a hug, her bear hugs were nothing like Emmett's-thank God. ''Have you grown since last time I saw you?'' She asked, I chuckled, considering the last time she saw me had been the day before, but I decided to enlighten her, ''It's possible…'' I admitted. Mom and Esme took a bag each and took them to my room, luckily for me I only had to carry the lightest bag; my handbag. I opened the door and I was amazed at what stood before me. Esme had really gone and outdid it; my room had never looked so magnificent. I immediately spotted the picture frame I guessed had been put out especially for me. But what caught my eye wasn't the frame, but the picture itself, ''I love it.'' I announced. ''I knew you would.'' Esme replied, once again, wrapping me in an embrace.
