Here we go… I thought to myself. Edward patted my knee, and I realized I still had my shield back. I don't know why, but this aggravated me, so I snapped my shield back into place. I heard Edward let out a rumble that ribbed through his chest. He knew I snapped my shield back blocking him from my thoughts. I ignored him, and locked my eyes on my dad. "Well…" I said impatiently.
"I have some good news for you kids." Charlie's eyes wondered only between mine and Seth's. I followed his gaze to Seth's who looked as confused as I was. If my heart were beating I had no doubt it would sound exactly like Renesmee's. I let my eyes drift to where she was sitting at Jacobs feet on the floor with Clair next to her. I was so wrapped up in what was going on with Charlie that I didn't realize she was eating. Sure she'll eat when Jacob ate human food.
"Well Sue and I… We're engaged." Charlie said his face gleaming with excitement.
"Your what?!" Both Seth and I shrieked at the same time. Charlie jumped back startled by our reaction.
"Well yes…" He said looking back at Sue. I realized her eyes were baring into me not blinking. "I love Sue, and we would love for you kids to be apart of the wedding…"
"CHARLIE!!" I yelled pushing Edwards arm off of me. Everything in the room now at a red tint to it through my eyes. Startled by my sudden movement Edward stood like a solid rock Between my father and I. "Do you realizing what your doing?" I said threw clenched teeth. My thoughts rushed to the wolf that was sitting on my porch. A vampire with wolf stepsiblings? Made no sense to me whatsoever. I glanced quickly at Seth who shot me a hurtful look. Oh great I hurt his feelings. I drew in a deep breath calming myself. Looking around the eerie quiet room I noticed all eyes were on me. Jacob and Quil were also on their feet in a protective stance in front of Clair and Renesmee.
"Bella please calm down." Edward begged turning his head to look back at me.
"Bells, I don't understand… I thought you like Sue and her kids?" Charlie whispered obviously hurt.
"I like Sue and Seth, but dad…" I trailed off trying to figure out how to explain without telling him who I really am. "Remember that need to know stuff?" I asked crossing my arms. He nodded once to hurt to answer with words. "Well it's like that." I shrugged before looking down at Sue who was the only one still sitting down.
"You," I started pointing to her. "You know, and your allowing this to happen?" She stood up standing in front of Charlie. Edward planted himself even more in front of me so I couldn't even see her.
"I know what I'm doing." She began sighing. "I love your father Bella. You three have to work it out." She looked out the front window. I turned to look behind me seeing Leah peering inside. Her eyes locked on mine. Edward must have read her mind because I heard his body whirl around behind me, grabbing tightly to the tops of my arms.
Leah pushed away from the window turning her back on me. That's it I had it with her attitude. I flared my arms, yanking them from Edwards grip. I knew I was still stronger than him. "Bella…" Jacob cautioned stepping in my path to the door.
"Out of my way Jake." I growled curling my top lip over my teeth. I stepped closer when he didn't budge. His hands were shaking, but I ignored him. I moved quickly past him before he even realized I was gone. I heard Charlie gasp behind me. Crap! I'd have to explain that later.
"Leah!" I yelled jumping through the doorway, landing about 10 feet from where I started. I rolled my eyes hearing Charlie once more still inside the house.
"What do you want?" She asked her hands shaking.
"I want to know what your problem is! You don't like me I get it, but our parents seem to want to bring our worlds together." Leah made sure she kept a good 2 yards away from me.
"I like your dad! It's not his fault who he falls in love with. Am I right?" She asked sarcastically raising an eyebrow at me. "It's you I don't like." Her eyes went from me to Edward, back to mine. "Both of you make me sick, and I refuse to be apart of… your family."
I took a step towards her both my hands in fists. A growl ripped through my chest, "Cant you just grow up Leah?"
"I'm not liking this as much as you are parasite!" Leah's whole body was shaking at this point."Why cant you let it go Leah! What did we ever do to you?! I'm sorry your life is miserable, but that's not our fault... pup!" My lips popped at the last p. "Girls... what are you talking about?" I heard my dads plea further behind me. I realized for the first time I was backing Leah into the forest."Stay back Charlie." Edward warned him. "Bella!" I could feel someone behind me. Then Edwards hand was on my shoulder."Control your wife Bloodsucker!" Leah yelled at him. "I refuse to be part of your sick family!" Leah spat at us once more. I followed her glare past me at the shocked face pressed up against the front window of the house. Jacob had his arm tightly around Renesmee as she watched me."What are you implying?" I already knew her answer. But I asked anyway turning back towards her."Your little mons..." She didn't finish before a deep growl ripped through my chest as I leaped at her letting out a high pitched scream I've never heard before.
