(A/N This chapter sort of goes fast, and it's long.)
Chapter 13
Renesmee's Pov.
After I greet all of my family, with Jake tight at my side, we're all rushed to the big house. Mommy is still sleeping, and it's really starting to worry Daddy and Grandpa. A vampire shouldn't even be able to pass put, or sleep!
As soon as we get there, Momma is taken upstairs into the "hospital room." We always have medical equipment on hand because I seem to have inherited my mom's clumsiness.
I glance sadly at Jacob as Daddy mutter's, "Please Bella, I need you. Wake up, Love. Please." In a broken whisper. If he could've cried, I'm sure he would be.
It's been four days, and everyone seems to think Mommy's pregnant. Carlisle doesn't understand, but her stomach is getting bigger, and Daddy is able to make out a heartbeat if he listens close enough. I'm not sure if I'm excited or not. I mean, I'd love a baby brother or sister, but this thing is killing my mother.
Mommy woke up soon after we got home. I've been up to talk to her a little, and Aunt Rose is always with her.
It's night time, and Daddy still hasn't come up to tuck me in. I slip downstairs, from my bedroom at the big house. I hear voices in the dining room, so I decide to eavesdrop. They won't tell me anything anyways. I block my thoughts from Daddy, something I've become good at. I just kept my mind in a dreamlike state. It seems he's too busy to really pay attention to me anyway.
They're talking about Mommy, and I hear Daddy's voice the most. He's saying, "…like Renesmee. He's draining the life from her, but we can't feed her blood or she'll puke it back up. This thing is killing her." I begin to get confused. How was I like this baby? I remember trying not to stretch, not to hurt my Mommy, but I wasn't hurting her this bad was I?
Then I hear Grandpa's voice murmuring, "Well Edward, you don't seem to hate this as much as you did Renesmee. If I remember correctly, you wanted to kill her. You told me you would kill anything that hurt Bella."
"SHUT UP! You know nothing that went through my head! Yes I wanted to kill her, but so did all of you! No one wanted her except Bella and Rose!" Daddy booms.
"I love her, I wouldn't hurt her." I hear Jacob's voice mixed in with the others. Daddy snarls a laugh and I wonder why. Daddy growls at something, probably Jake's thoughts.
"You wanted t-."
"Shush Edward, you'll wake Renesmee." Grandma says in a soothing voice.
Kill me? I step out in the open to where they could see me. "You don't have to worry about waking me. I'm already up." I whisper, sad tears running down my face. Daddy stares at me in horror. "How much-"
"Did I hear? I heard everything. Maybe I should just leave. None of you wanted me anyways." I snarl, my sadness now mingling with anger. Alice steps forward as if to comfort me, but I back away, holding up my hand and growling. "You wanted me dead too. Jacob's the only one who ever wanted me. He never wanted me dead, only the rest of you. Maybe on the way to Grandpa Charlie's you'll get lucky and I'll get hit by a bus."
Jacob's face twists and in the back of my mind, I wonder why.
I turn and run to my room, grabbing a back-pack and filling it with clothes. After I'm packed, I go up to Mommy's room, changing my mind about where I'm running to. I didn't want to be too far away from Mommy. I step inside, and Momma's face instantly brightens at me. Her smile slowly sinks as Aunt Rose tells her everything that happened downstairs. She reaches out to hug me, and I except it, for a moment.
I pull away and tell her quietly. "I'm going to stay at the cottage for a while Momma, I'll visit you every day, but I don't want to be near the people who wanted me dead." I turn to Aunt Rose and ask her not to let anyone come see me, unless they didn't want me dead. She nods, and I leave the room.
I make my way to the cottage, and hole up in my room. Why does my life keep falling apart?
(Bella's Pov.) (Same day)
As I lay in the makeshift hospital room, I think about my daughter. Rosalie is beside me in the recliner, just sitting there. She looks over at me as she realizes that I'm staring at her.
"What are you thinking about?" I ask, my voice hoarse.
"Renesmee. She seemed so upset. I should go comfort her." She replies with ease. I immediately tense up, my jealous mother instincts kick in.
"No, you shouldn't. She's my daughter, I'll comfort her if she needs me." I snap angrily. She raises her eyebrows, amused at my reaction.
"I'm not trying to be rude Bella, it's just that she usually comes to me for this. I'm like her second mom." Rose explains. By the way her facial features move, she wants it to seem like Renesmee likes her more.
I glare at her, shifting my four month pregnant body to look at her. "I've had enough! She is my girl. She comes to me and I understand her more than anyone. Just because you were on my side during the pregnancy, doesn't mean you have any claim over her. She's mine. And sometimes, I don't think we moved to just get away from the imprint, we moved to get away from you. You are not her mother! She has no second mother, only me. I know you're mad at me for taking her away from you, but she wasn't yours. And she never will be. You need to start letting me do my job, and my job is to be my baby girl's mother. Back. Off."
She looks at me, slightly ashamed, but mostly angry. "I seem to recall you saying that I would be her second mother. If I remember correctly, which I do, you appointed me as her godmother. I'm sorry if she loves me. You know she'll always love you more. You need to calm down Bella, I'm not trying to steal her away. I'm going to leave now, and let you think about this. I need time to think too." As she stands up to leave, I notice her lip trembling. I hadn't meant to hurt her.
