Rosalie P.O.V.

We had just learned that Renesmee had run off with her friends to Alaska. On some level, I saw this as reckless and stupid, but on another I envied this human experience I had never gotten to have.

After a long discussion, it was decided that we would split up and look for Renesmee and her friends. I would be driving Bella and Edward, which I am not looking forward to, because they are still in the lovey-dovey first ten years of marriage. Emmett would be taking Jasper and Alice, who would be searching a different route from us. Carlisle and Esme would take Seth and Jacob with them. I pitied Esme; I can't go twenty minutes with Jacob without attempting to murder him.

I took off with Bella and Edward in the backseat. Bella was worried about Renesmee and Edward was trying to figure out how he could blame this all on Jacob. I couldn't wait to catch up with the girls so we could get out of the car.

About fifty miles down the road, I needed to stop for gas to fill up my car. I went inside and stood in line, waiting to purchase my gas. In front of me stood a plain girl, who looked nervous and excited. Something about her reminded me of Bella when she was still human. I don't know what it was, but it was definitely there.

After I paid for my gas, I followed the girl. I was fascinated with her, and I doubted Bella and Edward would notice my absence. She walked to a shiny red sports car, the exact same car model I had given Nessie for her first birthday. She was arguing with another girl, who was sitting in the front seat of the car. The girl who she was talking to stepped out of the vehicle. She had glossy red hair, green eyes, and appeared familiar to me. I recognized the girl at once. It was Meg, Renesmee's little human friend. These girls must be Nessie's friends. And that meant that Renesmee was most likely in the front seat of the car.

Without thinking, I marched over to the car. "Renesmee Cullen get your butt out here!" I exclaimed.

She didn't say anything, so I marched over to the car. I saw a grinning Renesmee in the driver's seat. "What are you smiling about?"

She laughed. "You should see your face right now! It's absolutely hysterical!"

I glared at my niece. "What do you think you're doing?"

She sighed. "Well, my friends, Meg and Claire, thought it would be a good idea to go to Alaska to find the boy who imprinted on Meg when she was a baby! Isn't that romantic?"

"I think the word you're looking for is idiotic."

She sighed. "What are you even doing here?"

"Why don't you ask your parents? They're over there, in my car making out."

She winced. "I didn't need to know that last bit, but were you guys looking for me?"

"Of course we were looking for you! You ran away!"

"It wasn't really like that. It was kind of… spur of the moment."

I rolled my eyes. "I think you're becoming more and more human every day."

Bella P.O.V.

Edward and I were discussing our plan when I saw something out of the corner of my eye. "Edward, did you just see what I just say?'

He wrinkled his forehead. "What?"

"Rosalie is over there," I said pointing.

"So?"

"And she's talking to Renesmee!"

This got Edward's attention. He spun around and looked in the direction I was pointing. "Found her."

Rosalie walked Renesmee and her embarrassed friends back to the car.

"What were you thinking?" I screamed at Renesmee. "You didn't tell anyone where you were!"

Renesmee opened her mouth to defend herself, but Rosalie stopped her. "Bella, can I talk to you in private for a minute."

"Um, sure, I guess." This surprised me, because Rosalie and I aren't exactly close. I followed her into the convenience store, where we talked in a corner by the sports drinks.

"What's going on?" I asked.

She took a deep breath. "I think you should go easy on Nessie."

This confused me, this was irrational behavior for Rose, who I used to believe did not sympathize with anyone.

"Why?" I asked.

"She was just… being human. I think I understood."

I didn't completely understand where Rosalie was coming from, but I didn't argue. We left the store and got back into the parking lot.

I looked at Nessie, standing with her friends. "Renesmee, you and your friends should drive back home, and we'll meet you there in about an hour."

She looked at me and nodded. She and her friends drove off in the direction of Forks, Washington.

"Thank you, Bella," said Rosalie.

"Uh, sure," I said.

Edward exchanged a glance with Rosalie, obviously knowing exactly what was on her mind. Sometimes I wish I was the one with the powers.
