Q: Will Renesmee ever happen? A: I'm sorry if it's what you wanted but no.
Q: Will the other mermaids get their mates too? If they do will they be vampires? A: One of the mermaids will... one of them... I don't want to expose who it is though, and no he will not be a vampire.
Q: Will the other mermaids have children? A: I don't think mermaids should have babies. They're pretty much like vampires (but more awesomer) so they won't be able to give birth.

Bella's POV
There was no time to sleep or daydream. Before my sisters and I went home, for Tick we found some real sand, coral, and shells, for his fish tank. We held it all together and kept it alive in a gigantic pool of water which we carried with our powers all the way back home to Tick.
Mackenzie shyly greeted us at the door and slightly bowed to me before bounding down the hallways to her room.
"Hey guys. We heard you went with the Cullens to their house for a while. They're vampires?" Morgan asked.
"Yes, how'd you know?" Katie replied.
"Oh, Lindsey called us with her phone," MaKayla answered. Lindsey handed the slick black rectangular object to me, and I inspected it closely. I have never seen a phone so small and without a cord. Where were the buttons? Katie forcefully ripped the phone out of my grasp and yanked me to my room to pick out my outfit for school today. After I had taken a shower and got ready, I said good-bye to Tick as he floated around in his tank. He was still exploring the gigantic glass case and all the new features.
By the time we got to school, only a few students and the Cullens were there because we were so early. We were obviously not repeating yesterday's dramatic entrance. Today, Edward walked me to all of my classes until lunch came around. We had officially made it our table and I always sat by Edward and Alice. Sometimes I would hold hands with him under or above our table, or control the water in the bottle to move into my mouth. Misi had an amazing idea.
"How about on Saturday we go to the river and have some fun!" She screamed.
"What is she talking about?" Edward asked me.
"Well," I started, "the river she's talking about is the river behind our house. You all should come, it will be fun!"
"I'll go," Edward said sweetly, and everyone agreed.
The rest of the week went by the same way and the my sisters and I were very excited to show the Cullens our tails. I did plan on bringing Tick. He would love to meet everyone.
Finally Saturday came along and we were all packing, though the river was only a mile away. I slipped Tick on to my finger, and kept an orb of saltwater around him so he could breathe. MaKayla, Morgan, Lindsey, and I were going to pick up the Cullens with each of our cars, while Mackenzie, Katie, and Misi stayed by the river. Since we didn't have coverings for out breasts as a mermaid, we bought bikini tops for each of us. They were all black.
As Lindsey led the way to their house I looked down at my outfit. It was a large white t-shirt with the Spanish flag on it. I was also wearing jean shorts so the shirt almost covered them. I'd blush if I were still human at my revealing outfit.
I hadn't noticed that we had arrived, but I was still shocked at the massive beauty of the house. immediately as I parked, Alice danced out of her house and Jasper came shortly after. Though I wanted so desperately to drive her to our home, Lindsey insisted that I drive Edward. They hopped in to Lindsey's car and left quickly. Esme and Carlile went with MaKayla and Morgan drove Rosalie and Emmett. When Edward left the house I almost burst out laughing at the sight. He was wearing bright sunset orange trunks that he shamefully hung his head at. When he finally swept into my brand new Red Chevy truck, Edward yelled as he looked at my left hand.
"Do you remember him?" I asked him.
"Yes. What is it- him, I mean?" Edward said getting closer to Tick.
"This is Tick, my pet jellyfish," I felt Tick tingling and shock my fingers and I knew that he wanted Edward to hold him before 'fully judging' him.
"Do you want to hold him?" I looked at Edward with pleading eyes. He nodded mutely, and cupped his hands together, awaiting the small creature. I rubbed Tick's head, also feeling the thin layer of saltwater, before pulling him off and gently placing him into Edward's hands. He cringed and winced and grimaced, but did not pull away from Tick. I heard Tick wanting to speak so I leaned into him after picking him up and placing him into my cupped hand.
"He's nice... he's warm," Tick complimented. I giggled at his cute voice and odd compliment and Edward raised an eyebrow at me.
"He thinks you're nice... and warm," I said. I slipped Tick back on my finger. I started to lean in to kiss Edward on the cheek, but he turned his head and full-out kissed me. We moved our lips rhythmically. It wasn't until Edward touched my bare thigh that I remembered we had to go -we can do this later anyway.
Edward held my right hand as I drove. When we arrived at the garage, Edward looked into the forest to see our house, though great, paled in comparison of his magnificent home.
"You have a beautiful home," Edward said, gathering me into his arms and repeating the compliment I gave his house.
"Thank you," I said, playfully putting my finger under his chin and pulling him towards the forest. We ran through the trees, side by side.
The bikini tops were hidden underwater, so when we unfurl our tails we'd go into the river and put them on. When we reached the river, we could see Katie and Misi sitting on rocks, their tails swashing in the water under them, and Mackenzie swimming toward us.
"Stay here," I told Edward before walking behind a large boulder and, stripping the clothes I had on, jumped into the water to turn back into a mermaid. Releasing my cerulean tail. With the help of Misi, I put the black biking top that we bought for all of us, and swam up to the surface to see Edward already with his shirt off looking down at me.
"Look! Mermaids!" Emmett exclaimed with wide eyes as he saw the sight of Katie and Mackenzie singing to themselves on the rocks. Edward slid into the water easily and took my hand.
"You're beautiful," Edward whispered to me and all of my sisters, except Lindsey who smirked, 'awed' in the background. I kissed his cheek, reminding him what we started in my truck and we swam off to finish.
This chapter sucks but I don't know how else to finish it.
Don't forget say 'Post Name' at the end of your review... whatever, you know what I'm talking about.
Remember to ask questions.
