Chapter 22: Presents, families and surprises
Nessie POV
It was the part of the day which I dreaded. Going home. I tried to imagine what Alice could have done in the short amount of time I was gone. It was only 6:00pm how much could she had done. We were already pulling into my driveway. I saw white string lights hanging from the house. I guess she could do a lot. I grimaced at what was indoors.
"you ready" Jacob asked still sat in the rabbit.
"no. Did you know about this" I now turned my body around to face him.
"I can honestly tell you I had no idea this was happening, until I got a call from Alice which told me to bring you home" he replied holding his arms out defensively, I could see the grin on his face. He did know. I took a deep breath and got out of the car. I didn't wait for him I just walked up to the door and opened it. Once inside I heard a chorus of Happy birthday.
I was going to kill Alice. Everyone I knew was here Jacobs pack, grandpa Charlie and grandma Sue, the Denali's and Billy, plus my family. I smiled at them even though I was raging inside. Once I was passed around everyone Alice came into the room.
"its time for her to open her presents" she sang across the room. So there was the evil pixie who created all this.
"I agree. I think she went a little overboard" daddy agreed next to me. No you don't say. The place was decorated with streamers and balloons. A banner hung from the wall with Happy birthday written across. I loved aunt Alice a lot but I hated it when she did all this. With a loud sigh I followed everyone into the dinning room.
Everyone was either sat around the table or stood around it. I caught Alice's eye and gave her if looks could kill look. She just beamed brighter.
"come on Nessie. You get to sit here" she sang pointing at the chair at the top of the table. I rolled my eyes but did as I was told. I wouldn't want to make a scene in front of everyone. I sat down in the chair and every eye turned to me. Normally I like being looked at but right now I hate it.
"here why don't you open this one first" Alice chimed next to me. She handed me a small silver wrapped box. It had a card with it. It read.
To my dearest Granddaughter,
I never thought I would I would have you in my life. But now that you are I couldn't imagine my life without you in it. You truly are an amazing granddaughter.
Love as always
Grandpa Charlie and Grandma Sue

I looked up from the card and looked at them. Then looked at the box, I opened it to find a beautiful hair piece. It had purple flowers with gems inside. I stood up and hugged them both.
"thank you so much" I said to them both.
"no problem sweetheart" they both replied. I went and took my seat again.
"now this one" Alice chimed again. There was another card with this so I opened it.
Dear Renesmee
We are so fortunate to know you. We wouldn't imagine our life without you here. You're the one you is taming Jacob. You will always be our friend. Well in Seth's case best friend.
Love
Seth, Leah , Quill and Embry xx
I looked at them for a moment Leah was smiling shyly along with Quill and Embry. Seth on the other hand looked as though he was about to burst. I looked down at the present. It was a medium sized box and was wrapped in blue paper. I carefully unwrapped it to find a large container full of hair accessorise and hair pieces. It looked good, expensive. I stood up and gave them all hugs and said thank you.
The Denali's present was next. They got me two. The first one was from Tanya, Carmen and Eleazar. This was a very small package that was wrapped in gold paper. There was no card so I opened the present. It was a pair of gold earrings. I looked at them, got up and hugged them and said thank you.
The next present was from Kate and Garrett. This also had no card and was a square shape. I opened the wrapping to find a book. But not just any book on the front engraved was Renesmee photo album. I flipped through the pages. Some had already been filled in with pictures of them holding me when we went down for a summer once. This was a really thoughtful gift. I hugged them tightly. Now for my families.
"here you go sweetie" Esme said as she passed my a small gold box. This present did have a card. It read.
Dear Renesmee,
In all our lives we have never had someone like you. We have lived for centuries looking after our children and never once did we dream of having you. You have brought new life into this family. We love you so much and will always love you. You are our angel.
Love forever and always
Grandpa Carlisle and Grandma Esme xxxxxx
I looked at both of them and smiled I could feel the tears building up in my eyes. I will not cry until I am finished. I told myself. I looked down at the box and opened it. Inside was a white gold locket. I picked it up and opened it. Inside was a picture of us. Standing outside the house. Carlisle had his arm around her waist and a hand on my shoulder. I looked at the side without a picture. Engraved into it was:
You are our life, you will always be in our hearts. We love you.
I couldn't help it I let the tears roll down my cheeks. I hugged both of them tightly. Tears were still streaming down my face. I reluctantly let go and walked back over to the seat.
"our present is next" Alice said bubbling with joy. I took a large square box. It had Channel written on it. Trust Alice to get me something from Channel. There was no card only a tag on the box.
We both love you with al our hearts. Xxx
I smiled and opened the box. Inside was a light pink handbag. It was beautiful, I looked at them and hugged them.
"well I have a confession. I didn't buy you one. I bought you 7" Alice chimed. Daddies face was shocked. Mum looked stunned. Jasper just smiled. I was even happier now. I hugged her tightly.
"now open ours" Rosalie said handing me a long small box. This had no card but had a small tag on the side,
You will always be our angel. Love you forever.
This once again made me tear up. Inside the box was a beautiful white gold bracelet with sapphires embedded into it in the shape of hearts. Engraved on the back was
You will always be in our hearts
I looked at them a moment and hugged them with pure joy. I had never been so happy. And finally the last present was from my parents.
"hold out your hand and close your eyes" daddy said with an eager tone. I did as I was told. I felt a cold object hit my hand. I opened my eyes to see a key. I looked at it a moment then looked back at my dad.
"look outside" was all he said. I walked over to the door and went outside. Once I got there I saw a beautiful convertible beetle. It was dark blue. I couldn't believe it I had a car. This definitely was the best birthday. I turned around and hugged my parents. I actually enjoyed this birthday.
I felt a warm hand on my back.
"you want to go for a walk with me" a husky voice asked from behind. I nodded. We walked through the undergrowth for a little while just enjoying each others company. Once we were out of hearing range he pulled me close and held me tight against him.
"you know I think I imprinted on the most beautiful girl in the world" he said looking into my eyes. I couldn't help it I began to blush. "she also has amazing blush" he continued. I blushed harder. I felt him kiss my cheek. That's when I noticed the moon. It was so big and full.
A strange tingling sensation burned my arm. It was starting to hurt. The pain was moving from my arm to the rest of my body. I felt my body shake violently and fall to the ground. I felt Jacobs hands catch me.
"Nessie are you okay. Nessie" he was screaming at me but I couldn't listen I was in so much pain. Darkness was coming I had no choice but to give in.
R&R please
