Author's Note:
I have seriously been plotting this chapter with my beta Ashley for three weeks(something, something, something CARNIVAL!) so I hope you like it. Stephenie Meyer owns Twilight I just own this story and Aiden ;).
Renesmee's POV
I was surprised my mom didn't even try to be a parent about me being out on a school night, but then again she actually did grow up in this time era. It wasn't dark yet though it would be soon since it was right in the middle of Autumn. The carnival was filled with sounds and smells I'd never experienced before. Aiden and I walked around for a while before he decided to get a snack.
"Do you want a caramel or a candied apple?" he asked as we walked up to the snack stand. The mention of caramel apples made me remember Jacob telling me what they were and how good they are. I didn't want to open that can of worms again.
"uh candied please." We walked up together and Aiden ordered for us. He refused to let me pay for mine which is a really weird feeling, if you come from my family. After that we shared nachos with cheese that looked like plastic but tasted delicious. Esme would have never let me eat something like this, but my mom would have, after all she was human recently.
"So, do you want to walk around for a while before we go on rides?" he asked, probably considering both of us. I wouldn't have thrown up, but I couldn't say the same about him.
"yeah, ok." we started walking and stopped in front of the petting zoo. He started getting jittery.
"Oh my god! Do you want to go in?" he was far too excited for a man of eighteen, so I just couldn't turn him down.
"uh, sure?" I answered. It came out as a question, but it was only because I was confused about his enthusiasm. It was just a petting zoo after all. We were the oldest 'kids' in there, and the animals were shying away from me, but Aiden was too absorbed in the litter of piglets to notice.
It took me a half hour, but I was finally able to pry him away from the llama, and out of the pen.
"So, uh, what do you wanna do now?" he asked, while looking back at the petting zoo, probably wishing that I would say that I wanted to go back to the animals.
"Want to do rides?" I suggested.
"Oh, yeah okay!" at least he seemed excited about that too.
We were in line to buy our wristbands, and once again, Aiden wouldn't let me pay. I wondered if this was what normally happened on a first date, because it was making me really uncomfortable.
We were walking towards the Ferris Wheel, and I was totally mortified at what I saw; Emmett and Jasper, forcing cotton candy down each others throats, attempting to make the other puke. I attempted to ignore them, but failed miserably,
"Do you know those guys?" Aiden asked, looking over at my two idiots of uncles.
"Unfortunately, those are my two foster brothers," when I said that, Emmett looked over at us and waved.
"Did he hear that from all the way over there?" Aiden asked, examining the distance from where we were, to where Emmett stood with Jasper.
"He probably just felt my gaze," I glared at my uncle, whom I was less than amused with at the current moment. I decided to just ignore them, and led Aiden to the nearest ride, it was called The Scrambler.
Bella's POV:
I'd never been to the carnival with Edward, in fact, I'd only been to one in my life, and that was with Renee, when I was twelve.
Edward and I were trying to look like a normal teenage couple, while keeping tabs on our daughter, and her human date. He could fall off the Giant Wheel for all I care.
We were on the Ferris Wheel, and I could see that she had already seen Emmett and Jasper, which spooked her, so she dragged the human she was with to the closest ride, which, unfortunately, was The Scrambler. I hadn't been on one in about thirteen years, but I remembered the mechanics. The ride spins around, and the forces and energy propels the inside person (normally the smaller of the group) into the outside person. Which would mean my daughter would literally be smashed into this hormone crazed, human boy.
I opened my mind, and let Edward hear my revelation, which caused his hand to become a tense fist. "You think it would be too conspicuous if I ran over there and broke it?" Edward asked looking over at me.
"You can't break the whole ride Edward," I told him.
"I meant that boy," my husband all but snarled at me.
"Edward, calm down," I said, though I completely agreed with him.
Renesmee's POV:
I hadn't been paying attention to the mechanics of the ride, I was too busy looking out for the other members of my family, because I was certain that they were there.
"are you ok? You seem a little distracted." Aiden asked as the ride began. I turned my head to answer him, but just then the ride sped up and I was slammed into him. Which was really bad because the way my head was turned made it so our face's were inches from each other. It wouldn't have been a bad thing, if I hadn't seen my parents at the top of the Ferris Wheel, looking at us with the intensity equivalent of a peeping neighbor spying on someone, with a pair of binoculars.
Edward's POV:
I was contemplating a hundred ways to kill that boy and make it seem like an accident, while they were still on the ride. Sadly none of my plans would have ended well, considering that my entire family was here and my daughter was sitting next to said boy.
"I'm going to kill him!" I said through clenched teeth. My daughter, though she couldn't hear me, was terrified. As she should have been. My wife sighed and I looked at her.
"Edward! You can't kill the boy, our daughter wouldn't be too happy with you." She tried to reason with me.
"Isabella look down there and tell me what you see!" I pointed down at where the kid was with his impure thoughts about my daughter!
"Edward I can see them down there just as clearly as you. Besides, Renesmee really had no idea the ride did that."
"yes I know!" I tapped my temple with my index finger. "He did know and was quite thrilled when she chose that ride!" I hadn't been this pissed off since Emmett tried to stake me! Why somebody let him watch Van Helsing, I'll never know.
Rosalie's POV:
My current task was to get a teddy bear without actually playing a pointless carnival game. I could have won any of them easily but I needed more of a challenge than that. I flashed the guy running the turning ladder game a very flirtatious smile.
"Hi." it was the only thing I said but the way his heart rate picked up meant this wouldn't be too much of a challenge.
"um do you w-want to climb the ladder miss?" he asked in a shaky voice. I looked down at my feet,
"I would, but I can't in these shoes." I almost felt bad for this poor guy I thought his heart might burst through his chest.
"Well uh I could always climb the ladder for you." he suggested.
"would you really do that for me? That would be so sweet!" I batted my eyelashes at him and smiled my most innocent smile.
"yeah just don't tell anyone. I could lose my job." he was intimidated by me just all humans are.
"I promise I won't tell anyone." He climbed the ladder with ease and rung the bell.
"Ta da!" he boasted and got a giant teddy bear down from the prizes.
"Thank you." I said flashing him another smile. He looked like he was expecting more in return for him risking his job but I wasn't going to give it to him. I carried my prize over to Alice who was waiting by The Zipper.
"Wow you actually did it." She really looked genuinely surprised which is rare with Alice.
"Men are all the same Alice, just show them a little cleavage and they're yours to control." it was scary how true that was. "So what did I miss in the Edward, Bella, Renesmee drama?" I asked.
"Edward, Bella, Renesmee, Human boy drama." Alice corrected me.
"whatever! What did I miss?" I asked like a woman who missed her daily soap opera.
"Not too much they saw our husbands, then Renesmee was pinned to the boy and Edward and Bella saw it."
"How exactly was she pinned to him?" I asked curiously.
"The Scrambler," Alice replied simply.
"I bet our beloved Edward liked that," I said, my voice dripping with sarcasm.
"He liked it so much that he's actually contemplating killing him right here and now," Alice informed me.
I just rolled my eyes, it was so Edward.
Emmett's POV:
I was starting to become a bit queasy, but there was no way that I was going to puke first! I couldn't lose a thousand dollars to Jasper again. I was just resting on a bench watching the events of the night unfold. I watched Renesmee and that kid get off of The Scrambler together and go on several more rides. Rosalie and Alice were flirting with carnies, Bella was trying to keep Edward from killing the boy Nessie was with, and Jasper was pacing in front of me.
As the night progressed I began to feel worse and worse but I just couldn't give in. As the night temperature began to cool down I heard Aiden and Renesmee talking, they must have been going on the Ferris Wheel.
"Aren't you cold in that little jacket?" The kid asked my niece. She sounded a lot like Bella when she lied,
"Oh…uh a little bit." I finally got a good view of them and saw Aiden take his jacket off and give it to her. He must have been freezing but he didn't show it. The fact that he was being such a gentleman to Renesmee brought him up a few notches in my book.
Aiden's POV:
The Ferris Wheel was not a fun ride in my opinion, on account of me being afraid of heights but Renesmee wanted to go on it. I don't know why but I felt like I would do anything for that girl. When we were walking to the parking lot so I could give her a ride back to her(awesome)car she stopped dead in her tracks and swore under her breath. I looked up to see a couple walking towards us.
The guy had Renesmee's strange red-brown hair. This must have been the older brother she'd told me about.
"Hey Renesmee! Strange seeing you here." Said the most beautiful brunette I'd ever laid eyes on. I had no idea who she was but I was strangely jealous of Renesmee's(now angry looking)brother.
"What are you guys doing here?" Renesmee asked, a little rudely.
"We're on a date, kind of like you." The girl looked over at me and smiled. I don't know why but I got a sudden burst of confidence and lust that seemed to come out of nowhere.
Jasper's POV:
I managed to pull a very sick Emmett off of the bench and get close enough to Edward, Bella, Renesmee and her date to have some fun with them. I felt the anger from Edward, the blind rage coming off of Bella, the embarrassment from Renesmee and lust from the human. I realized that this lust was not for my niece but for my married sister, Bella. I wanted him to make a fool of himself so I sent him a powerful burst of lust and confidence.
Those two things should never be mixed, sort of like alcohol and firearms…or Emmett and Slinkies. I'm not even going to get into that one though.
Renesmee's POV:
I saw Aiden's eyes, they were clouded over. It was a look I'd seen my father give my mother a few times before. I heard my father growl and I saw Emmett and Jasper cracking up twenty feet away from where we stood. I shrugged out of Aiden's jacket and gave it to him.
"you know I think I'm going to get a ride with Edward and Bella, ok?" I asked him. I knew there was no way in hell my parents would have let me get into a car with a lusty teenage boy so I didn't want to push it.
"ok." he looked like he was controlling himself from pouncing on my mother or myself. Which was seriously messed up.
"I'm sure you two will see each other tomorrow." My mother sounded like she desperately needed to get Aiden away from us.
"it was nice meeting you." Aiden sounded a little nervous as he walked off to the parking lot. My mother angrily stalked over to Jasper and smacked him violently upside the head,
"What the hell is wrong with you Jasper Whitlock Hale?" She yelled at him. He held up his hands like he was surrendering,
"Hey, those were his feelings, I was just intensifying them!" he defended himself.
"You couldn't have intensified fear? You had to do lust!" My dad said frustrated. Alice and Rosalie walked over to see how this would play out and if we might need to move again in the near future.
Esme's POV:
Carlisle and I were enjoying the fair as we always did. He'd won me my customary tiny toy from the pin knock over game and we'd spent several rides on the bumper cars and of course the Ferris Wheel. It reminded us of when we went to the world fair and rode on the very first one. We were about to go home to inspect the inevitable damage caused to the house while we were gone. I still hadn't forgiven the children for ruining my reclaimed hardwood floors. We were making our way to the exit when we heard seven familiar voices arguing.
My first thoughts were why they were all yelling at Jasper and why Renesmee was out on a school night. Carlisle and I speed walked over to them at a human pace. They all quieted down when they saw us walk over to them.
"Uh hey…What are you guys doing here?" Bella asked casually.
"We were on our annual carnival date what are you doing here?" my husband asked.
"And why is Renesmee out on a school night?" I added.
"Mom let me come here grandma I swear." Renesmee said innocently. I turned my gaze over to Bella to confirm this and she nodded. My gaze then turned to Emmett who looked like he should be a very putrid shade of green.
"Emmett honey, are you okay?" I was truly concerned about my son. Emmett opened his mouth as if to answer but instead threw up all over Carlisle's shoes.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REVIEW IT MAKES ME HAPPY!
