Chapter 19
What do we do?
Rosaline lunged at me and I held out my arms to catch her. Instead of catching her I pushed her away and backed up. My father was in front of me trying to restrain Rosaline. I used to think when I was little that my father was invincible and nothing could beat him. That thought was crushed as I watched Rosaline push him out of the way with little effort. My father was over 100 years old and she was only 8. She tried to get at me again but she was stopped. It took dad, jasper, Carlisle, and Emmett to hold her back. She finally seemed to stop and compose and we brought her back into Carlisle's office. Carlisle quickly got some new chains and they all chained her to the table. She struggled to get away but the fact that there were extra chains made it impossible. She finally calmed but still growled whenever someone came near.
"Rosaline, it's me, Renesmee." I said in a calm voice holding my hands up.
She looked at me and tilted her head to the side, as if she didn't know who I was. I looked at Carlisle quickly.
"She won't remember you right away, she doesn't know what's going on and she has to get used to this." He said as if he could read my mind.
"So what do we do, just wait?" I asked.
"Yes, we have to wait for right now." He replied.
"Well, should we take her hunting?" I asked.
"No, she's too violent right now; we have to wait until she calms." He replied.
I nodded. The sound of the chains rattling was loud and obnoxious. We all left the room and sat in the living room. I looked out the window and thought of Antoine. My mind drifted to the night we spent together, just not together together. I thought about what it would have been like had he been more human and had he chose to go further and I realized that I did care about being morally right. I was glad that he had the sense to end it when he did before it when too far. I looked around when I came back to earth. Alice and jasper were sitting on a couch together and Carlisle and Esme were off in a corner reading a book and my mother and father were standing in a corner looking into each other's eyes. It was so romantic to watch them. They are so in love and I don't understand why they can't see that with me and Antoine. They shared a kiss and hugged. They stayed in each other's arms for a long time and finally I couldn't take this silence anymore.
"Carlisle?" I called out.
"Yes, Renesmee?" he answered.
"How long is this going to take?" I asked.
He opened his mouth to talk and then stopped. I looked around and listened. I heard nothing, that was just it, nothing. It dawned o me that that was a good thing. We all rushed into the office and Rosaline was just sitting there looking down.
"Rosaline?" I asked. She looked up and I saw a smile go across her face.
"Renesmee!" she shouted and then looked at the chains. I looked at Carlisle and he stepped towards Rosaline.
"Rosaline, are you thirsty?" he asked. She clasped her hand around her throat and nodded.
"Would you like to hunt the way we do?" he asked. She looked at me and then at him.
"Yes, I would." She replied. He nodded and motioned for my father and Emmett to come over.
They held her arms and Carlisle unlocked the chains. Emmett and Edward took her down and handed her to me.
"Can I take her for her first hunting trip?" I asked.
"I'm coming with you." My father said immediately. I nodded and we walked out of the room
