Chapter One

Pretense...

I looked at myself in the mirror annoyed, I cant believe I'm going to high school—again. Pretenses so I can live a normal life. I look seventeen but I am actually twenty one years old. I could play a college student, but my father wouldn't want me to yet—I'm not ready yet.

"Well, you are ready. But you wanted this pretense… to be my twin." My dad, Edward Cullen, said sounding smug and he gracefully dashed beside me and ran his hand on my hair. He planted a soft kiss on my forehead. "Though I am really sure no one is going to buy it, you look more like your mother." He whispered, his voice breaking as if he's going to cry.

I bit my bottom lip, feeling guilty. I don't really think I look my mother, I look like my father. But how would I know if I haven't seen her before. Only from that hazy memory of her, when I killed her, I am a monster, I should have been destroyed before I even killed her.

I felt my father shake, he took my face firmly with his hands. He looked at me intensely, "You are not a monster. Do you understand me?"

I couldn't look away from his face, I felt a tear fall from my eyes. How can I think that? If it wasn't for me she would be here right now. Then my father wrapped his arms around me and let me cry on his chest.

"Renesmee Carlie Cullen, your mother fought for you for a reason. Even though we have lost her, you must know that she loved you deeply." He breathed though my hair. "I regret ever thinking of not wanting you, I am sorry."

I laughed, he didn't need to apologize. I'm sure when I'm stubborn that's when the time he would think he should have destroyed me.

He laughed with me, "Nah, I wouldn't have a twin if that's possible,"

I pulled away from his hug and glowered at him, "What did Alice see that you have the feel like you should be with me at school?" I remembered that Alice had a vision last week and then all of a sudden he said yes to my pretense because he never wanted to be a brother to me. He wants to keep the fact that he's my father.

"I want to be in high school with my daughter is that so bad?" he said. He ran his hand on my cheek.

I stared at me suspiciously, "You haven't been in high school ever since I was fully matured, you take your age a bit older so people would buy that you're my father." I frowned, "Now, you and I are sophomores? Why all of a sudden dad?"

He frowned at me, "Just trust me on this, Alice's vision—"

"Has everything to do with it!" I gasped, even though I am not a mind reader I can always know when my father is keeping something from me. I've got twenty one years of practice. "Dad, please don't shut me out." I pleaded.

He took a deep breath and then shook his head in defeat, "I don't know what it is yet, but Alice saw another vampire in the high school we are going to,"

I raised an eyebrow and then started bursting into laughter, "Dad, you overprotective freak—" then I gasped, "What did she see?" I started panicking, so what if there is another vampire in that school, that would mean he or she is a vegetarian. So dad shouldn't be overprotective, unless if I was—no I couldn't smell that good.

"Shh, shh," he said when I started hyperventilating. "No, its not that." then he laughed again.

I eyed him, I am annoyed dad. Tell me.

"I told you we don't know yet, and just calm down. Its nothing bad." He said then poked my nose.

"Fine Edward," I hissed through my teeth. I saw him glare at me and I hugged him, "Hey, I'm just practicing."

"I'm Edward at school." He growled at me.

"Leave her alone Edward," Alice teased as she dashed beside us.

"Hello," Dad and I said at the same time. Then he had a grin on his face as if he heard what Alice had thought.

Then I noticed Alice glaring at me, eyeing me from head to toe. "You are not wearing that right?"

I shrugged, I looked at myself again. I was wearing a sweatshirt and jeans. "I guess."

Alice groaned, "No, come with me," she ordered as she grabbed my hand to lead me in my huge closet.

"That's my cue to leave," Dad breathed, I gave him a cry of plea. I have no plans being her Barbie doll. But he grinned at me, "Punishment." Then he left not before he laughed.

I guess it's a good punishment being tortured and being told what to wear. I should just let her do it. It makes her happy anyways.
