Five short years had already come and gone since we had been in Calgary. The time had been good to us, and our lives had been good ones. I had never been happier since we moved here and started over from scratch. It had been so nice being able to work instead of going through high school again. It had also been nice not to have the mutt breathing down our necks.
I had more than enjoyed fatherhood; Ren had been the light of mine and Bella's life. I would look forward to the next five years as well; of course, I was not by any means trying to rush time.
It was amazing what could happen in such a short time. Bella had three very successful books published; I am very proud of her and what she had accomplished. During that time, she had also been a spectacular mother to Ren.
It was hard to believe that next week school would be starting again, and our Ren would be in kindergarten. She would be attending the same school where Carlisle was principal. That fact made the whole family happy; we knew she would be well looked after.
Tonight we were going to the school's open house. It gave parents and children the opportunity to meet the teachers and tour the school, without first day of school jitters.
"Mommy! Daddy! Come on; I want to see my room," Ren said, as she quickly unbuckled her seat belt.
She did stay in the car at least; she knew better than to get out of the car by herself, especially in a busy parking lot.
"I am so glad you are excited about school, sweetie. Come on then, and let's go see your room and meet your teacher; then, we can go find Grandpa Carlisle and say "hi" to him before we leave," Bella said excitedly, as she opened Ren's car door.
"Yay!" Ren said, giggling, as she jumped out of the car and took each of our hands.
"Okay, little one, do you remember what your teacher's name is and what room number you are in?" I asked her, as we entered the building.
"Yes, daddy; her name is Mrs. Sanders, and I am in room three," Ren stated proudly.
The inside of the kindergarten building was very cheerful and very welcoming. The walls were painted with children playing; there were birds, trees, and flowers all over it. From the ceiling hung a banner that said "Welcome Children" in bright red colors; there were children and parents milling about looking for their rooms. Ren was practically vibrating with excitement, as we wandered the halls looking for her room.
"Here it is, sweetie," Bella announced, pointing at a room with a large purple three on it.
We entered the room where a cheerful woman in her 30s greeted us.
"Hello; my name is Mrs. Sanders. Welcome to room three," she said.
"Hello, Mrs. Sanders; my name is Edward Masen, and this is my wife, Bella, and our daughter, Renesmee," I told her.
"Wow; they are gorgeous! All three of them and look at their clothes! Looks and money; why do some people have all the luck? I bet this little girl's outfit cost more than my entire wardrobe. I bet she is a spoiled princess," Mrs. Sanders thought, although she kept her smile plastered on her face.
"Hello, Renesmee; it is nice to meet you. Welcome to my class," Mrs. Sanders said, kneeling down to Ren's level.
"Hello, Mrs. Sanders; it is nice to meet you too. I am looking forward to being in your class," Ren responded.
Mrs. Sanders was momentarily taken aback by Ren's polite and mature response.
"Well, you are a sweet little thing? Thank you, Reneesme; I look forward to having you in class," Mrs., Sanders said as she stood up.
"She certainly is polite. I may have been wrong about them. They have money that much is obvious, but she is too well-mannered to be a spoiled princess," Mrs. Sanders thought to herself.
"Renesmee, Mr. and Mrs. Masen, if you would like, feel free to walk around the room and get acquainted with everything. I look forward to having your daughter in class. We start our lessons at 8:00, but I would like for the children to be here no later than 7:50; it will give them a chance to use the restroom and settle down before we begin. I let the children out at 2:50 and you can pick her up outside under the covered walkway," Mrs. Sanders told us.
"Thank you, Mrs. Sanders," Bella said.
The teacher nodded her head politely then turned to a new family that entered the room.
"She is nice, but a little presumptuous about Ren; she quickly changed her mind though," Bella said too quietly for anyone but me to hear.
"Well, we do have an amazing daughter, love," I said, putting my arm around Bella's shoulders while we watched Ren check the room out and talk to the other children.
We talked to some of the other parents and found most of them to be basically nice. There were a few of the moms I would have to watch out for whenever I would drop Ren off or pick her up. The fathers were just typical males, except for a couple, who actually had their children's best interest in mind.
"Wish my wife still looked like that! What I wouldn't give..." one guy thought, as I caught him openly checking out my wife when she bent over to say something to Ren. He quickly averted his gaze when I shot him a withering glare.
"I think it is time we went to find Carlisle, love," I said when she raised back up. She looked around at the gawking males in the room. If she could have blushed, she would have.
"You're right. Come on, sweetie; let's go find Grandpa Carlisle before we leave," Bella called to Ren.
"Yay!" she squealed, as we headed out the classroom door.
Carlisle was up at the front of the school talking to some parents when we walked up. He excused himself from the couple and held his arms out to Renesmee.
"How do you like your room and teacher, sweetheart?" he asked, as she jumped in his arms.
"Oh Grandpa! I love it; and Mrs. Sanders is so nice, even if she is 'sumptuous about me," she replied.
Bella's eyes grew wide. Oops! We thought we said that low enough for her not to hear.
"I'm guessing we will have to be more careful about what we say in front of her from now on," I whispered to Bella.
Bella nodded in quiet agreement. Carlisle laughed loudly.
"And what was Mrs. Sanders presumptuous about?" he asked, as we walked into his office for some privacy.
"She was assuming Ren was a spoiled princess, but changed her mind quickly when she saw how smart and well-mannered she was," I said, taking a seat on the sofa in his office.
"Mrs. Sanders is very nice, Ren; I think you will enjoy her class very much," Carlisle said.
"I think so too, Grandpa; I can't wait for school to start," Ren said.
We stayed for a few more minutes, and then we got up and went home. It had been a busy night and Ren needed to be in bed. Bella and I had agreed we would have her in the habit of going to bed early by the time school started, so she would be used to it. She had adjusted remarkably well. I was really proud of her and so was Bella.
"Well, now that the little munchkin is in bed, Mrs. Masen, what do you think about us going to bed early as well?" I asked Bella with hope burning in my eyes.
After having to be my less amorous self all evening and after hearing all those lustful thoughts of other men, I was more than ready to ravage my gorgeous wife.
"Hmmm, well, Mr. Masen, I do believe I would be amendable to that," she said with the cutest giggle I had ever heard from her.
At vamp speed, I scooped her up in my arms and headed for our bedroom. It took only a mere two seconds to have her undressed and lying on the bed underneath me.
"I do believe someone is really in need tonight; am I right in that assumption, husband?" Bella asked with teasing in her tone, but hunger and fire in her eyes.
"Why don't you see how fast you can undress me and test that theory out, wife," I replied.
Bella flipped us over and was perched on top of me in the blink of an eye. She took no care in ripping my pants and button down shirt from my body; they now lay in shreds on our bedroom floor. She stripped me of my boxers, socks, and shoes and then was back and sinking down on my hard cock in less than a second. She was already wet and ready for me; she squeezed me with her inner muscles, as she slid down on me.
"Fuck, baby, you keep doing that, and I will cum before we even get started," I told her.
"Mmmm, go ahead; I happen to know you have excellent recovery time, darling," she purred, as she squeezed me again and began to move over me.
She rocked slowly back and forth and then lifted up and slid down every once in awhile. Our eyes never left each other. There were no words from our mouths, only the sounds of great passion; the words weren't needed. We knew what the other one was saying with only a look, plus the fact that our minds were keeping a running commentary while our lips stayed silent.
We made love for hours on end like that, and I loved it. Bella showed me how she felt from day one up until now about how she felt about me. I loved the gifts she gave me like that; each one was precious to me and something I would never take for granted. After some time, we switched positions; and I was back on top of her. I gave her the same gift back. I knew our lovemaking was coming to an end, when we began growling low at each other.
I felt it building; the tension in her body was the same as mine. The end was going to be explosive and we were going to come hard and loud. Bella knew it too. We didn't want to wake Ren, so I bent down and nuzzled my face into Bella's neck; and she did the same to me.
"I'm ready, Edward! Bite me, bite me, now!" she told me in her thoughts.
I pulled back and slammed into her one last time and sank my teeth into her flesh at the same time. We both roared our release into each other's necks, as we came together. When I was spent, I slumped over Bella's body. I knew I could no longer hurt her by doing this, and she always welcomed it.
"Mmm, yesss, safe and well-loved by my husband; you always make feel like this, Edward. I love you so much, honey," Bella said in her thoughts, as she clung to me.
"You make me feel wanted and treasured too, my love," I told her.
After a few moments, she released me; and I moved off of her. We turned so that we faced each other. I brought her leg up and over my hip, so we could still be as connected as possible. It was just our way; we lay and talked the rest of the night
We took the time to reminisce on all of Ren's monumental steps in her short life so far. It was hard to believe she was already five years old and about to start school. It seemed only yesterday that she called me "da da" for the first time out loud then soon called me "daddy" out loud. I was so happy and proud of her; Bella pouted a bit because that was her first spoken word instead of mommy. It didn't last long though; Ren quickly made the transition to mommy. We quickly realized she had no favorite; we were loved equally.
"It just doesn't seem possible that she's so big already. I would cry if I could, Edward; I'm not ready for our baby to be grown up," Bella told me.
"I know very well how you feel, angel; I'm not ready for it either, but we know we can't stop it. It's part of life," I replied.
"Yeah well, let's see what you say the day she comes home with her first crush on a boy, mister," she retorted with a giggle.
That made me growl; I never wanted to think about that happening. None of those little shits would ever be worthy of my princess. I didn't care who they were.
"Then, we will just have to make sure to take them out of the equation before it has time to become a problem," I told her.
"Right, like it worked when my father tried to keep you away from me?" she asked and placed a kiss on my nose.
I rolled my eyes at that, but I knew she was right. I had found ways around his rules, whether he liked it or not; and I was sure it would be the same with Ren. We talked about how proud we were when our baby took her first steps and then when she walked from me to Bella. Then, when she ran out to meet me at the car the first time; I would have cried, if I could have. All of those moments will be treasured, even more as the years pass on.
"Just keep in mind, she loved you first, daddy; and she will always love you best because you will be there when she needs you, where others are bound to fail," Bella told me.
I smiled at those words knowing in my heart I would always see to it that my princess was happy and had anything and everything her heart desired.

Today would be my very first day of school. I was looking forward to it, but I was a teensy bit scared too. I was worried I might not make any friends. Aunt Alice told me I was worried for nothing and so did mommy and daddy. Mommy said I was too sweet for people not to like me, and daddy told me I was too pretty. Aunt Alice and mommy helped me pick out my clothes, and daddy helped me put all new things in my book bag. I had a really good time when mommy and Aunt Alice took me shopping for new clothes, and again when Mommy and Daddy took me shopping for the stuff I would need.
My book bag was pink and had a bunch of Disney princesses on it, and my lunch box had Barbie on it. My first day outfit was a pink shirt and jeans with pink stars on them, and mommy bought me some pink shoes to go with it. I couldn't wait to show daddy how I looked, so I hurried and brushed my teeth then went downstairs.
"I'm all ready, daddy; Do I look pretty?" I asked.
Daddy smiled and reached out to pick me up; he set me in his lap and then squeezed me tight.
"You look just like your mommy, too beautiful for words to describe, princess," he said.
"Thank you, daddy," I said laughing.
I laughed because mommy rolled her eyes when daddy said that.
"Don't you roll your eyes at me, woman; you know I think I have the two most beautiful girls in the world, and it's quite alright for me to say it," daddy said.
Mommy just winked at him; it made him laugh.
"Mommy, I know Aunt Alice said I would have a good first day of school, but I am so scared," I said, as I watched Mommy fix my lunch and snack for the day.
"Ren, it is normal to be nervous your first day, but I could tell you without your Aunt Alice that you will have a great day. Just be your normal sweet self and everything will be alright," Mommy said with a smile.
I was nervous, but excited too. I just knew I would make a best friend today.
"You are going to have a great day, little one. Just remember what we talked about last night, okay?" Daddy said with a serious look.
"I remember, Daddy. I can't talk to anyone by touching them, and I can't tell anyone our secret," I said, walking over to him and crawling up in his lap again. I loved being in my daddy's lap; I always felt safe there.
"Do you think I will meet my best friend today, daddy?" I asked him with my thoughts.
"I have no doubt you will make many friends today, little one. Maybe you will be lucky today and meet your very best friend," he said, kissing the end of my nose.
"Okay, sweetheart, it is time to head to school," mommy said, as she gathered up all my things. She and daddy both took about a million pictures of me walking out to the car. Then, another million when we got to school.
"You are going to have a wonderful day, little one. I have to go to my school now. If you have any problems, remember grandpa is here; and he will help you," Daddy said, giving me a kiss on the head.
"Okay, daddy; you have a good first day of school too!" I said, and he chuckled then left me with mommy. We drove in two cars since it was the first day, and mommy wanted to make sure I made it to my classroom. I think mommy was a little bit scared too.
"I love you, Ren; I will see you this afternoon. Mommy will miss you, but I know you are going to have fun," Mommy said giving me a kiss. I waved goodbye and watched her walk out the door. When she left, I looked around the room and was so excited; I had never been around so many children my age before.
"Ren, why don't you go talk to some of your new classmates," Mrs. Sanders said, giving me a gentle nudge forward.
Some of the children were saying goodbye to their parents, and some were already playing; there were some who were screaming for their parents not to leave them. I saw one little girl that stood out to me; she had long dark hair and blue eyes. She was sitting at the table coloring quietly; I decided to go talk to her.
"Hi, my name is Renesmee Carlie Masen, but you can call me Ren. What's your name?" I asked.
The little girl just looked at me for a second like she couldn't believe I was talking to her. She looked like a nice girl; she seemed quiet.
"Um hi; my name is Alyssa Jefferies," she said to me shyly.
"Can I sit and color with you?" I asked her. Again, she looked at me surprised.
"Um sure, here you can color on the other page in my coloring book," she offered me quietly. I happily sat beside her; she handed me a color. It was green, my favorite color!
"Alyssa, will you be my best friend?" I asked her.
Uncle Em always says if you want something to go for it! I wanted Alyssa to be my best friend, so I asked her.
"You want to be my best friend?" she asked, looking and sounding surprised again.
"Sure, why wouldn't I want to be your best friend?" I asked her.
"My brother said no one would want to be my friend, and that all the kids would probably be mean to me," she said, shrugging her shoulders like it was no big deal.
Why would her brother say that? He was mean. I would tell my daddy, and he would take care of it. He wouldn't let anyone be mean to my new friend.
"Well, your brother doesn't know what he is talking about. I want to be your friend, and I will never be mean to you; will you be mine?" I asked her again.
"Sure, Ren; I'd like that. My brother won't believe I made a friend on the first day," she said, giggling happily.
"Besides, if anyone is mean to us we can tell my Grandpa Carlisle. He is the principal," I told her proudly, and she just stared at me in amazement.
"Really? He isn't mean is he? My brother said all principals and teachers are mean. That is why I have been sitting here not talking; I didn't want to get in trouble," she whispered to me.
"Alyssa, you have a lot to learn. Just stick with me; I will help you out," I told her. We played together the rest of the day. Mrs. Sanders let us sit together in class, as long as we didn't get loud. We ate lunch together and even shared our snacks. That afternoon she got to meet my mommy.
Alyssa whispered to me that mommy looked like an angel. Mommy just winked at me. When daddy got home, I told him all about Alyssa and asked him to take care of her bother. He picked me and put me in his lap.
"Well, you see, princess, I can't do that because Alyssa and her brother aren't my children. I would get in trouble if I did anything to him. I bet that if she tells her mommy and daddy that they probably would take care of it. The only children I can discipline are the ones I teach and you," he told me.
That made sense, and I wouldn't want daddy to get in trouble. After our talk, daddy put me in my seat and buckled me in then drove us home.
"Mommy, I had the best first day of school ever," I told her, as she was tucking me into bed later that night.
"I am so glad, Ren, and I am so happy you found Alyssa. Now go to sleep; you and Alyssa will have a big day tomorrow," mommy said, kissing me good night.
I smiled and rolled over onto my side so happy because I loved going to school, and I had found my best friend.

I wouldn't dare let it show to Ren, but I was probably more scared than anybody about her going to school. I knew it was silly, but I guessed all mothers went through this when their children would be away from them for the first time. I was excited for her too though, and I hoped she would adjust easily and quickly.
If it had been possible, I would have cried when I had to leave my baby this morning. She looked so cute in her first day outfit. Alice called me later in the morning asking about how things went, and I told her they went great. She had assured me they would; but as a mommy, I had my own doubts.
I stayed on pins and needles all day long just waiting on Carlisle to call me and tell me to come pick Ren up because she was upset. I found out later that afternoon and night that my fears were unfounded. She had indeed had a great first day and couldn't wait until the next one. She was also thrilled that she had made a best friend. My baby was truly growing up. Damn, it sucked that I couldn't cry anymore.
"Love, you are just going through what all mothers go through, but you are being silly. Ren loves you and will always need you no matter how old she gets. Look at all of our sibling for instance; we've been around for decades, but we still love Esme and need her just as much as we loved and needed our human parents when we were little children," Edward told me, as I joined him in our bed after I tucked Ren into hers.
"I know you're right, Edward, but Esme is used to this; and all of you were grown by the time she got you. Our baby is still little," I whined.
"Come here, angel; let me hold you and comfort you. I think I might have a way to make you forget your worries for a bit," he said with his voice low and seductive.
I was instantly ready for him, and he knew it. He very efficiently distracted me from my worries for the rest of the night.
