Carlisle

Alistair's eyes were a mix of topaz and crimson. He smiled as Tanya crashed into him.

He came inside, and didn't seem too bothered by the amount of people around him.

We all greeted him as he entered the living room, and we were now sitting, talking.

"Whoa. 16 vampires in one room…" I heard Mason whisper to Violetta.

"Let's hope nobody upsets me right now…" She said to him just as quietly.

I looked at her, and she sensed my eyes on her. She looked back and smiled.

The conversation continued before Tanya decided she wanted to hunt, so she and Alistair stood and went out the back door.

"Are they actually hunting, or not?" Mason asked me.

"I'm going to guess that they're not."

"Both, actually." Edward said. "Alistair has to keep himself well fed so he doesn't pounce of you or Ness. He's still new to this lifestyle."

"Clearly. His eyes were a weird mix of red and gold." Jacob said.

"Crimson and topaz…" Renesmee corrected.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't use the right terms…" He stared at her.

She smirked, "If you're going to try and sound like you know what you're talking about, you at least need to say the right colours."

Everyone laughed.

Jacob rolled his eyes, "Whatever."

Renesmee smiled and kissed his cheek.

"Are your lips a dark pink or a dark salmon?" Alice asked Renesmee.

"It's actually called Ravishing Riches…" Renesmee smirked.

Alice laughed, "Mine's just 'Old Hollywood'."

"Is it a coincidence that mine is Ramblin' Rose?" Rosalie laughed.

"Mine's Siss." Bella said.

"Odyssey." Kate said.

"Wish." Esme said.

"Devotion." Carmen said hers.

"Swoon." Leah said.

"Why are there so many different lipsticks?" Seth asked.

"Vi, what's yours? It's nice." Rosalie asked her.

She smirked, "I don't really want to say after our conversation earlier…"

Edward broke into laughter.

"What is it?" Renesmee asked.

"Fetish…" She answered. "The one I wore yesterday was 'Sin'…"

"Yours suit you so well…" Mason said to her, smirking.

"Nope, I'm changing it." She stood and disappeared upstairs.

"I bet you it'll be something even more self-describing…" Alice said.

She came back down the stairs with a new colour complimenting her face.

"And what's that one called?" Jasper asked.

"'Violetta'." She smirked and sat down.

"Well, Alice, you weren't wrong…" I said.

We laughed and Mason explained it to her.


Tanya and Alistair got back once it started to fall dark. As soon as they walked in, Rosalie asked Tanya what colour her lipstick was.

"'Seduction'. Why?" She asked.

Jasper and Emmett laughed, "That's exactly what you've been doing for hours. Perfect." Emmett said.

Tanya glanced at Alistair and swallowed.

"As much as I enjoy your inappropriate jokes, I don't think Tanya does." Alistair said to them.

"We were talking about our lipstick colours. Vi's was 'Fetish' before she changed it. I think it fit perfectly with our conversation earlier…" Rosalie said.

Tanya tried not to laugh at Vi as she looked over at her.

"Alright, let's forget about that conversation." Violetta rolled her eyes.

"Oh please honey; you're never living that down." Bella said.

"It's stuck with you forever." Kate smirked.

"Alright, whatever." She shook her head and lay backwards, resting her head in Mason's lap.

"Letty?" I asked.

"Yes?" She turned her head and looked over at me.

"Never mind." I decided against asking.

"Don't do that."

"Don't do what?"

"Go to say something but then change your mind. I'm curious now." She sat up again.

"Forget about it."

"Dad."

"How much do you like Forks High School?" I asked. Esme looked at me questioningly.

"That depends on why you're asking…"

"We have to leave, Let." I said. Everyone stared at me in silence. Renesmee stood up and walked out of the room.

Violetta stared at me for a second before she glanced at Mason.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, we worked this out with the pack…" Jacob said.

Renesmee appeared again, "You did?"

Jacob nodded.

"I don't know why it never really occurred to us before…but…" Leah said.

"We're technically not a part of Sam's pack." Seth said. "Jacob is our alpha."

"This means we can do whatever the hell we want, and we don't need Sam to come with us." Jacob said.

"So you'll be coming with us?" Esme asked, hopeful.

"We will be." Jacob nodded.

"What about Billy and Sue?" Violetta asked.

"Oh, they'll survive." Leah nodded. "We already talked to them about it, they don't care."

"Sue cares, Leah." Mason said, "She just wants you and Seth to do what you want, not what she wants."

"She doesn't seem at all effected by our decision…" Leah shook her head.

"Leah, Sue wants what is best for you and Seth. She wants you to be happy, and she wants you to be safe. Believe it or not, you're safer with vampires than you are with wolves." Jacob said.

"Whatever, I don't care."

"Well, you do." Edward called her out.

"Don't worry Leah, we'll visit her, and Esme has been better to us than mum has." Seth said.

"Just because you have a thing for Esme…" Leah said quietly.

"What!? I do not have a thing for Esme!" Seth defended himself loudly.

Everyone laughed.

"Remember the days when I was the only one in love with you?" I asked her.

"Ah, yes. Now I have Emmett and Seth chasing me too." She smirked.

"Oh my god." Emmett laughed and shook his head, "You wish."

"Oh yes, it's just a dream of mine to have all my sons following me around like a Mike Newton."

Bella broke into hysterical laughs, followed by Rosalie and Alice.

"That was good, I'll give you that." Emmett nodded and laughed.

"I'm actually proud of that…" Esme laughed.

"That was mean." I said to her.

"Oh, come on Carlisle! You cannot say you liked how he followed Bella day in, day out." Rosalie said.

"No, it was very uncomfortable for Bella and very strange that he never got the message." I agreed with a smirk.

"Oh, says you!" Esme laughed at me.

"What?"

"You followed me around like a lost kitten 24/7 for 5 months straight after you changed me! You never got the message!"

"Hey, that's not the same. I knew you were my mate, you just didn't know it. You had no idea you were in love with me that whole time."

"Oh, big ego." She teased.

"And look where we are now, Esme." I smirked, "Guess I was right, again."

"You're so proud of yourself…"

"I landed you." I winked

"Why aren't you that sweet?" Renesmee asked Jacob.

"I'm not—I don't know…"

"Mm. Pick up our game." She smirked at him.

"Appreciate what you have." He said to her, trying to keep a straight face.

"Vi, is Mason that sweet to you?" She asked.

"Mason's a dick." Violetta replied.

"I am not! No, is this because—"

Violetta cut him off my kissing him. "It was a joke, calm down."

"You don't do that…" Jacob said to Renesmee.

"That's because I take joy in winning arguments."

"Stubborn, like your mother." Jacob shook his head with a smile.

"Like mother, like daughter." Bella said.

"Edward and Bella are both stubborn. Seriously, when they argue, all hell breaks loose…" Rosalie said.

The laughter and banter carried on. Esme looked up at me and I kissed her lightly.

"Thank you for changing me." She whispered.

"Thank you for loving me." I nuzzled her nose.

"Always." She kissed me back.
