Author's note:
Stephenie Meyer owns Twilight I just own Aiden and this angsty story. This chapter is in a lot of different of POVs.
Bella's POV:
I was blocking everyone's mind from Edward and that alone was already irritating him. But I wasn't finished yet.
"Emmett do you have the CD?" I asked my bear of a brother. He reached into the pocket of his grey sweatshirt and pulled out the unmarked CD I had him burn for me a few hours before.
"I got it right here sis." Emmett said grinning at me mischievously from across the room. Alice began to giggle uncontrollably as she saw what we were planning. Jasper was reading another civil war novel and looked up confused. But when he felt the giddiness coming from Alice, Emmett and myself and the annoyance coming from Edward he knew it would be something good. He decided he would much rather pay attention to us than his novel.
Just then Rosalie piped up. "I live in a house full of morons!" we could all hear her laugh towards the end. Clearly we didn't annoy her too much because she was soon downstairs getting ready to watch and possibly participate in the events that were about to unfold. It's a good thing Carlisle and Esme weren't home or else they would have decided to pull the parents role and stopped us from what we were about to do.
"Emmett music please." I commanded all the while smiling at Edward. Emmett grinned again and put the CD into the stereo linked to the house's surround sound. Edward was starting to get seriously confused and probably even more angry at me because he still couldn't hear anyone's thoughts. Courtesy of moi and my seriously messed up brain. The music began to play and Edward quickly recognized it.
"No!" he yelled and attempted to run out of the house but Emmett and Jasper slammed him onto the floor(causing a crack in Esme's brand new reclaimed hardwood)and held him down so he could listen. Alice and Rosalie jumped up to join me as we began to sing and dance to It's Raining Men by The Weathergirls. We were about to go into the second verse when Edward yelled, "Renesmee's coming!" the look in his eyes assured us that he wasn't just using that as an excuse to turn off the music.
Emmett got off of the floor and turned off the music thirty seconds before Renesmee ran up to her room in tears. "Bella will you please stop blocking me?" Edward is as protective of our daughter as me so I instantly dropped my shield. By the look on his face I instantly regretted it.
Edward's POV:
When my daughter ran into the house everyone stopped in their tracks. My wife's shield was up so I could no longer hear Renesmee's thoughts. "Bella will you please stop blocking me?" I yelled. Her shield dropped and everyone's thoughts instantly poured into my head but I tuned all of them out so I could clearly hear exactly what was causing my daughter's distress.
What I heard made absolutely no sense. All I could make out clearly was Go-gurt, that boy and Jacob. I had no idea how the three tied into each other. I did know they were causing her extreme pain and that is not ok with me.
"Edward!" my wife screamed in my head. I looked over at her and saw that her eyes were wide with shock. Clearly she was worried about what had upset out daughter. I looked at her and mouthed,
"it's him."
Bella's POV:
We all sat in silence for a few minutes. Eventually Renesmee called someone. It didn't take a brain surgeon to know who. I'll give you a hint it starts with an A as in the ass that he is for praying on my six year old! Jasper felt my blind rage and just shook his head at me. I still had everyone on the ground floor blocked so Edward had no idea how much hatred I felt for the boy our daughter was talking to. When Renesmee hung up her phone, I decided that I would go up and talk to her.
As soon as I opened the door she said; "I'm going hunting," and jumped out her window. I followed her out into the woods, staying close enough for her to realize I was there, but giving her enough space so she didn't think I was smothering her. She eventually found a heard of dear and grabbed the biggest one by the antlers.
"do you want to talk about what happened today?" I asked carefully. She pulled at the antlers decapitating the poor deer and soaking her clothes with blood. It was sad I really liked that outfit on her. "I take that as a no?" I asked. The next thing I knew, I was dodging a deer head. "That was uncalled for young lady!"
"So leave me alone!" She shot back at me, her voice dripping with acid. I looked at my daughter with pity in my eyes and said,
"Renesmee I don't know exactly what you're going through but I have a pretty decent understanding of it." she looked at me with rage which quickly melted into sadness.
"You wouldn't know. Dad just left. Jacob is dead! He's not coming back for me." then she wrapped her arms around herself like she was the only thing holding herself together. I walked over and wrapped my arms around her.
"I do know what this is like though." I whispered. She began crying on my shoulder. She didn't say anything and I didn't say anything I just held her to me. I hoped my silence was enough support for her. Apparently it was because soon she stopped crying.
Renesmee's POV:
The next day at school people were staring at me again. And not in a good way either. I expected Aiden wouldn't want to talk to me so I was surprised when I smelled his scent behind me and he whispered in my ear, "Are you feeling better?" our close proximity once again caused people to gossip. I didn't even bother to listen to that crap.
"Yeah I just had a really bad allergy attack and I needed my medicine." He brought his hand up to cup the side of my face he felt how hot my skin was to his.
"Whoa you're like seriously running a temperature are you sure you'll be ok tonight?" he asked while looking at me for any other signs of illness. I had almost completely forgotten all about our plans for the evening and forgotten to tell anybody.
"yeah, yeah I'll be fine I think your hands are just a little cold." I lied as casually as possible. The rest of the day flew by and before I knew it Aiden and I were walking to the parking lot together. Aiden automatically walked over to his car but quite frankly I was terrified of riding in it.
"Are you coming?" he asked as he unlocked the doors. It was just a car I couldn't be a coward. I cautiously opened the passenger door and was surprised to find the inside of the car wasn't nearly as bad as the outside. You see this is what happens when you're raised by the Cullens. I swallowed my pride and got into the car. The first thing I noticed was the extravagant stereo system that seemed out of place in the car.
"I'm guessing you like music?" I asked gesturing to a giant box of original vinyl records resting in the backseat.
"Yeah my band likes to redo older songs so I always have to find ones that could be given a more modern sound." he explained as he started the engine and began driving to the Ithaca fairgrounds.
"oh I just remembered I need to call my….foster mom and tell her I'm going to be getting home late." I said as I reached into my jeans pocket to get my phone.
"No problem I always had to check in with my foster mom too." he looked like he was remembering something sad when he said that. I dialed my mom's cell phone number because she seemed to be the most tolerant of Aiden.
Bella's POV:
I was about to email Charlie when the song Roxanne by The Police began playing from my phone which Renesmee had set as her personal ring tone a few months before. I pressed the green answer button. "What is it Renesmee?" I answered.
"uh I'm probably going to be getting home a little late tonight." she answered me nervously.
"Why?" I asked with suspicion in my voice. Edward, Emmett and Jasper were playing Risk upstairs so they probably weren't listening to our conversation.
"Well I was sort of wondering if I could go to the carnival with Aiden." She confessed. I listened carefully to the background noise and made out a noisy engine. It was too close so she had to have been in the noisy car.
"Are you driving there already?" Renesmee really needs to get used to the fact that I have superhuman hearing. There wasn't an answer. "I'll take that as a yes."
"I'm sorry he asked me yesterday and I forgot to ask you." she apologized.
"Ok fine just don't get home too late you need your sleep." I gave in sounding exactly like Renee.
"Thanks mom." she hung up. I couldn't get over the fact that she was so eager to go to a place that was going to be special for her and Jacob. I've never dated a human boy(freaky right?) but according to Edward their thoughts about girls are almost always nasty. With that I decided what I was going to do. Even though it was unnecessary I piped up my voice and broadcasted through the house,
"We're going to the carnival!"
Having no reviews makes me sad :( so please just take the time and tell me what you think.
