Chapter 9
Second Meeting

I ran out into the woods to "hunt". I was really going to look for Antoine. I ran through the woods for a while until I came to the spot where I last saw him. He wasn't there. I looked around for a little bit and then I thought I saw a movement in the bushes. I walked slowly toward that area. There he was; standing next to a tree snapping a photo of a rare flower. I walked closer.

"Ah, dear Renesmee! How are you?" he asked before I had even made a sound. "How did you know it was me?" I asked surprised. "I am now attuned to your sound." He replied. He turned around and smiled his beautiful smile. "So how are you today?"He asked. "I'm very well, how are you?" I asked. "Better…now that you are here." He said smiling. I looked down, feeling embarrassed, but in a good way. "Would you like to take a walk with me, take some photos?" he asked hopingly. I bit my lip and nodded.

We began to walk and look at the lovely scenery. We came across a patch of red roses. I looked at them with a big smile on my face. "You like roses?" he asked sweetly. "I love roses, they're so romantic." I said. He bent down and carefully plucked one out of the patch and then bowed and gave it to me. I giggled and took it from him. We continued walking and talking for hours. Then we found a little patch of grass and we sat down and talked. There was a long silence and we sat there and looked into each other's eyes. He leaned in and we kissed. It was a long kiss, not passionate, but it was nice…sweet and it was then that I realized, I was totally and completely in love with Antoine. We looked at each other for a long while and then I heard my father calling for me.

"I have to go, I'll see you later?" I asked. "Yes, of course, we will meet again." He bent down and kissed my hand just as he had done yesterday. I walked until I was out of his sight and then I ran. I got into my house and there were my parents, waiting for me. I could tell they were angry and I was about to get it.
My parents stood there for a long while and we just stared at each other. Finally my mother decided to break the silence. "Where were you Renesmee?" she asked with tension in her voice. "I told you, I went hunting." I answered back. "You know I can read your mind Renesmee?" my father asked. I nodded, not knowing what that had to do with anything. Then in dawned on me, he could hear what I was thinking when I was with Antoine. "You were with Antoine, weren't you Renesmee?" he asked, I could feel the anger rising in his voice. I looked down at the floor. "Go to your room." He said angrily, but still staying calm. I nodded my head and turned toward my room. I got in my room and sat on my bed, not knowing what to do next. So, I decided I would lie down and take a nap.

I was awoken with a knock on my door, it was my mother. "Come in." I answered. She quietly opened the door and sat next to me on my bed. "So, your father and I decided that we are going to go on a little trip." She said calmly. "Oh really?" I asked surprised. My parents never go on trips. "Where?" I asked. "Um, well, we are going to go where we had our honeymoon. Isle Esme." She replied with a sly grin on her face. I giggled. "It will kind of be like our second honeymoon, and we've asked Carlisle and Esme if you could spend the night at their house." She stated. "Why? Why can't I stay here?" I demanded. "I don't know, it's just that-well-you've never stayed alone. We've always been here." She answered. "So have Alice and Jasper come and stay here!" I demanded. She looked down while she thought. "Okay, if Jasper and Alice will come over to stay, then you can stay here." She compromised. She took out her cell phone and called Alice. "Hi Alice….I'm fine, how are you?...that's good….listen, Edward and I are going on a second honeymoon….yeah, I'm very excited….Renesmee wants to stay here…..could you and Jasper come and stay here with her?... Thank you so much Alice….bye bye." She hung up the phone. "Well, Alice and Jasper will be over tonight at 5:00." She said. "I have to go pack now; I'll see you in a little bit." She continued. I nodded and she left my room. I lay back down on my bed and sat there thinking, about Antoine.

I smelled the flower once again that he had given me. I looked at it, and without taking petals off, I went through each of them saying "He loves me, he loves me not…" When I finally finished with all the petals, it said that he loves me. I smiled to myself and sat up. I went over to the computer and logged into my MySpace to search him on the computer. I typed in Antoine, but I didn't know his last name. So instead I just typed in Antoine and put in the state, city, zip code, and male category. I was sure I wasn't going to find him, but as soon as I hit enter it brought me to one page of matches. Antoine was number one. I clicked the name and it took me to his profile, which was set to private. I clicked add as friend and I immediately was added onto his friends list. He was online when I had added him. I went onto his profile and to view his photography. When I clicked on his photography album it brought me to new pictures, the ones he took today. I clicked on the IM chat on the bottom of the page and clicked on his name. As I clicked on it, he started to talk to me.

Antoine: hello Renesmee.

Renesmee: Hi, Antoine, how are you?

Antoine: Better now that you are online. How are you?

Renesmee: Awe, I am doing very well. What are you up to?

Antoine: Reading some Shakespeare and thinking about you.

Renesmee: I don't think I have ever heard a Shakespeare quote.

Antoine: "But soft, what light through yonder window breaks, it is the east, and Renesmee, is the sun."

Renesmee: Tehehe, I don't think that's how it goes. ;)

Antoine: In my world, Renesmee, you are the sun.

Renesmee: You're sweet.

Antoine: And you are Lovely.

Just then my mother knocked on my door.

Renesmee: I have to go, my parents are going on vacation and I have to say goodbye. I'll talk to you later?

Antoine: Indeed, "Good night, good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it be morrow"

Renesmee: Goodbye.

"Come in Mom!" I shouted. She came in with my father. "Are you guys leaving?" I asked innocently. "Mhm!" my mother said excitedly. I jumped up from the chair and walked out of my room with them. We got to the door and I gave them a hug good bye. Alice and Jasper were sitting on the couch together. My parents walked out the door and drove away. I walked over to Alice and Jasper. Jasper got up and gave me a hug and so did Alice. We decided that we would watch some movies. After a few hours of movies I was bored. I excused myself to my room. It was already 9:00 and I was tired. I lay down on my bed and grabbed a book and began to read
