Chapter 2: 12 Years Later
Renesmee's POV
It had been a long twelve years. After Brenna had transformed me into a human she had put me into the adoption system so I would get adopted by humans. I claimed that my name was Vanessa. I chose that name because that was the name that my mom had put onto my passport. It made me feel closer to her somehow.
Not long after I was put up for adoption I was found by my new parents David and Caroline Wolfe. I thought it was funny how I ended up with the last name Wolfe. Now my name was exactly as it appeared on my fake passport.
I have had a good life with my parents and my brother Tyler. I grew up at a normal human rate and no one suspected anything about me, thanks to the spell. I love my human family just as much as I love my vampire family.
I often wonder how they are doing. Had mom and dad ever gotten over my 'death'? Did they miss me as much as I miss them? How were all of my aunts and uncles doing? What about grandpa Carlisle and grandma Esme? I ask myself these questions all the time.
Now I'm 17 years old. Well, I'm technically only 12 but since I appeared to be five years old when I was found everyone thinks that I am 17.
"Vanessa, what time are you going to be back from your game?" mom asked. Snapping me out of my thoughts. "The game should be over by three" I said. I was the pitcher on my varsity baseball team. "Good. That's about right around the time when the new doctor is suppose to come over" she said. I had forgotten about that. There was a new doctor moving here from another state. My parents were going to be his or her boss. They always invite the new doctors over to get to know them better. This doctor was a mystery to me because I didn't even know his or her name.
"Mom, I think you forgot that I'm going out with Ryan tonight. Dinner and a movie. Remember?" I said. "Oh, I had forgotten about that" she said. Ryan was my boyfriend. He was captain of the football team at my school, but he wasn't a jerk like those guys you see on T.V or movies. He was a really sweet guy actually.
I got ready for my game and then I left. "There you are Vanessa" my coach said. "Would I ever let you down coach?" I asked. "No, but you had me a worried there. You're are MVP, we need you here" he said. Brenna was right when she said that I would still be stronger, smarter, and faster than most humans. That's why I was really good at baseball. "Hey Vanessa, are you busy later?" my best friend Valerie asked. "Sorry, I am. I'm going on a date with Ryan later" I said. "Oh, I wanted to go shopping with you later" she said. "We can still go tomorrow. Tomorrow is still Sunday" I said. "Okay, what about 9am, as soon as the mall opens?" she asked. "Sounds good to me" I said. "Would you two girls stop talking and pay attention" the coach said to us. "Fine" we said in union and then laughed. The game was over at three as I had predicted. We had won 10-0.
Once I pulled onto my street I saw a fancy car parked outside our house and I knew immediately that this was the new doctor. I opened the door and made my way to the living room. I could tell it was a blonde guy and a caramel haired woman that my parents were with. I couldn't see their faces but by their body stances they looked shocked about something.
"This is my daughter Vanessa" my mom said and they both turned around. I nearly fainted when I saw who it was. It couldn't be. There was no this could be Carlisle and Esme. My grandparents. No way. They froze as soon as they looked at me. They knew, my scent had probably given me away before I even walked in this house. "This is Carlisle and Esme Cullen" mom said which just confirmed everything. "Nice to meet you" I said feeling all awkward about the whole thing. They both just robotically shook my hand and didn't say anything. I could see a whole range of emotions cross their faces. Happiness, confusion, possibly anger, but mostly confusion if anything. "I have to go get ready" I said. I walked around still in a daze.
"What's wrong Vanessa?" Ryan asked once he had come for me. "Nothing" I lied. "You look like something is bothering you" he said sternly. "Nothing is bothering me. I just need to get out" I said. "Okay" he said and he started the engine. As much as I tried not to think about Carlisle and Esme, I still did a lot during dinner. I was good at keeping appearances up so I was able to fake that nothing was bothering me. We headed to the movies afterwards.
We were going to see the Hunger games. It was our favorite book so we wanted to see the movie.
"Excuse me miss…." a boy said from behind me. I nearly fainted again when I saw that it was Edward, my father and I saw my mother behind me. He had the same expression as Carlisle and Esme. "Vanessa, come on. The line's moving" Ryan said. I turned around and immediately ran to where he was. "What's going on with you today? You're not yourself" he said. "I'll be fine" I said. We bought our tickets and made our way to our theater. Was it just coincidence, or were Edward and Bella following us everywhere? They didn't sit close to us in the theater. But, the both of them continued to stare at me intensely.
The movie ended and Ryan took me home. I made my way up to my room and I nearly had a heart attack when I saw my vampire father waiting for me.
He looked very emotional as he asked "Renesmee, is it really you?" I winced at the name that I hadn't heard in 12 years.
"Yes, dad it's me" I said and a fraction of a section later I was engulfed in his arms.
