Chapter 4
"Don't worry they are going to be far away from here by the time that we get to leave for class." Alice always seemed to be so cocky about her visions as long as Jacob wasn't involved. At first Jacob through Alice's visions off, but by the time I was three she had gotten used to his habits and was able to decide his most logical path. I reached over to Jacobs's unfinished plate and took it from him. Dad walked back into the kitchen and stopped dead in his tracks when he saw me inhaling the remainder of Jacob's breakfast. When I had finished the food I looked up and everyone was staring at me.
Emmett was the first to actually say anything about it, "So blood obviously doesn't do it for you anymore!" Before I could say anything smart back I realized that he was right. I hadn't had a craving for blood in at least three weeks. Before I could try and explain this to myself Carlisle walked in the front door, "Don't worry Carlisle nothing happened he was just checking in." I really hated when my dad did that because no one else ever knew what the other person was thinking.
The sense of relief filled the air as soon as Edward had said the words. "If everything is ok then why does everyone look so worried?" Yet again Emmett was the only one willing to be insensitive. "Well Reneesme just down an entire plate of food. The weird thing is that must of it was fruit that Esme prepared for Jacob so he wouldn't get sick with it being flu season." Carlisle's expression seemed to be one of those he only used at the hospital because I had never seen it before. It was confusion mixed with many explanations. "That could be it Carlisle I was actually thinking the same thing when Aro said their fortune teller could no longer see Reneesme."
I was beginning to get frustrated with not only my father but with Carlisle as well. They broke off into their own little conversation and it was mainly one sided most likely on purpose. Just once it would be nice to not have a mind reader for a father. "It's agreed then. I will need to perform some test to prove this but…" Edward cut Carlisle off, "I agree with you on that we must be careful."
Being frustrated at the lop sided conversation I left the kitchen to change out of my running clothes. When I got to the room I saw that Alice had already placed out the perfect outfit for the day. It apparently was going to be warm because the skirt she picked out was a little shorter than I would have chosen to wear. Once I got down stairs to leave it became obvious that would be partly sunny because the rest of the family wore as much as possible, with the exception of Jacob. When ever possible the whole family would attend school, but when the weather wouldn't allow that me and Jacob would go and say the family was sick. Once the weather became safe we would miss some days claiming to have caught their sickness.
