Chapter 1: The Video

Nessie's POV

I woke up to a ray of sunshine coming through my window. This was not an unusual sight since I lived in Orlando, Florida. I got out of bed slowly and went to check on my son Beau. Yeah, that's what I named my son. It means "handsome" in french. When I first looked into his beautiful green eyes three months ago that was the first name that jumped into my mind. He had inherited my bronze hair color and I knew his beautiful green eyes were likely to make the ladies swoon when he was older. Several of the nurses told me that he was the prettiest newborn baby that they had ever seen. I'm not exaggerating or lying about that either. I've even had strangers come up to me and tell me that even if they had kids of their own.

Beau was wide awake in his crib. When he saw me he held his arms out toward me and smiled. I wondered how long he had been laying there awake. Sometimes it scared me how little my son cried. Even the pediatrician didn't believe me when I told her that he hardly ever cried. But she did tell that he was very aware for his age. Beau always gazed at his surroundings with such focus and intensity and everyone noticed it. I often wondered what was going through his head.

"Okay baby, why don't we go change your diaper first and then I'll feed you. How does that sound?" he squeaked as if he were trying to answer my question. This has been my routine for the last three months. Get up. Change baby. Feed the baby. Take care of Bailey, my golden retriever. Then eat breakfast. By then my parents and my younger brother Jackson had already finished eating. I was only sixteen years old when I found out that I was pregnant. I just turned seventeen a few days ago. My family had been very supportive of me throughout my entire pregnancy. But they made it very clear that my son was going to be my and my responsibility only. It was the same lecture they'd given me three years ago when I insisted on getting a dog for my birthday. It was a condition that I was more than happy to accept. I was just happy that they were not going to kick me out of the house. The truth was that I loved taking care of my son. I wanted my baby to grow up knowing that he was loved and wanted from the very beginning.

My own parents had given up on me when I was about four or five years old. They didn't even bother taking me to an agency. Instead they abandoned me in the middle of nowhere and I ended up getting hit by a semi truck. How the hell I survived that is beyond me. The doctors said I was a medical miracle. But unfortunately that event erased my memory. All of the answers to my questions would forever remain a mystery. I had some jewelry engraved with the name Renesmee on it but that was all that I had to show for my previous life. But oddly enough there were a few other names that were prominent in my mind. Though I had no idea.

Shortly after I got adopted my family relocated to Orlando, Florida where we've lived for the last eleven years now. It was a beautiful city that quickly turned me into a roller coaster enthusiast as soon as I was tall enough to ride them. When I wasn't at school it wasn't uncommon to find me at Disney World, Universal, SeaWorld, or Six Flags. I hadn't been to any of the parks since I found out that I was pregnant. I was already three months pregnant when I found out. But during that three month period I had ridden so many roller coasters that it was a wonder how I didn't miscarry or experience placental abruption. Even my doctor said that it was nothing short of a miracle. Sometimes I swore Beau has been made of steel since he was just a fetus.

I'd never planned on getting pregnant. At least not this young. In hindsight it shouldn't have been such a huge surprise. Having unprotected sex with my boyfriend Jack every weekend was bound to have some unintended consequences. Actually he is my ex-boyfriend now. He dumped me the second that I told him that I was pregnant. First he gave me an ultimatum. Either I "get rid of that thing" as he put it or he was going to leave me. I remember cradling my belly and tears falling down my eyes but I couldn't abort my baby. I already loved my baby and I wasn't going to give up on him.

Jack and I still aren't on speaking terms. I tried visiting him once when Beau was born thinking that maybe he'd change his mind when he saw his son for the first time. I was wrong. He slammed the door in my face as soon as he saw me standing on the porch with Beau in my arms.

Jack didn't know that he was missing out on the sweetest little baby boy ever. Sometimes Beaut would just randomly smile at me and my heart would melt. Beau flashed a gummy smile at me. I could see some of his baby teeth beginning to erupt. Beau giggled and smiled. I shook my head. Sometimes I swore this little guy could actually read minds.

I laid him down on the changing table and quickly undid his diaper, cleaned him, and replaced the dirty diaper with a clean one. I'd learned early on that I needed to do this quickly before I was hit with a fountain of pee. "There we go. Now does that feel better?" Beau babbled incoherently as if he were actually trying to answer my question. "Okay now it's feeding time,"

I lifted my shirt and unclasped my bra. Beau latched on quickly and started feeding. When he was born the nurses had tried formula feeding him since my milk had not come in yet but the little stinker refused to drink it. He took maybe two swallows before spitting it out all over the nurse. It was actually pretty funny. Every single attempt to formula feed him failed. Luckily it didn't take too long for my milk to come in.

The rest of my family had already finished breakfast by the time that I came down. I quickly heated up some frozen pancakes and then practically inhaled them afterwards. Beau seemed to find that amusing. As I stood there washing the dishes I tried to think of a plan for today. My parents had gone off to work already. My brother had left for basketball practice and I was sure he was going to meet up with his girlfriend afterward.

My phone beeped. It was a text message from my best friend Natalie. Do you want to meet at the beach later? I replied with a quick yes.

The beach would be perfect. I loved going to the beach. I loved taking Bailey and playing fetch in the sand. I loved laying out on the sand to sunbathe. I couldn't get a tan to save my life though no matter how much I tried. I hadn't had a chance to visit the beach since before I gave birth. It would be nice to take my son to one of my favorite places that was not an amusement park.

"Okay Beau, do you want to visit one of mommy's favorite places?" I kissed my baby on the cheek and he giggled and smiled again. I couldn't help but laugh along with him. "I'm going to take you to a place called the beach. I hope you love it to,"

I went to the garage where my car was parked. I opened one of the back doors and strapped my son into his car seat. I whistled and Bailey came running out. "Get in," I ordered and he excitedly jumped into the back. I put a few more things in the trunk before finally leaving.

I stopped at a McDonald's and ordered two Big Macs, one large fries, 12 piece McDonald's chicken McNuggets, a large coke, and a strawberry shake. It was all for me. Ever since I gave birth and started breastfeeding it felt like I was always hungry and craving junk food. I was sure that at least ¾ of my milk production was all McDonald's.

The beach was less than five minutes away from the McDonald's. I saw Natalie already waiting at our usual meet up spot. I unloaded Beau and Bailey. I strapped Beau into his stroller and unloaded everything that I had brought along with my McDonald's haul.

"There you are Nessie oh and there is my sweet little godson!" she cooed at Beau.

"Natalie, you do know that the baptism hasn't happened yet, right?"

"Can you just let me have my fun?"

I shook my head. Natalie had been my best friend ever since the day I started school here. She was the only friend who remained by my side during my pregnancy. She was the first one to meet my son. I was with her when I suddenly went into labor. She rushed me to the hospital and the labor progressed so rapidly that my family didn't even have time to get here. All of my other friends had abandoned me by that point but not her.

"Are you going to eat all of that?" she asked me as she eyed my food in disapproval.

"Yes. You wouldn't believe just how hungry I am,"

She shook her head. "Anyway Nessie I've been thinking and I have an idea that-"

"Uh oh," I said.

"What?"

"You've been thinking and you have an idea. Every time you think and have an idea I always end up in trouble or on a missing person's list,"

"Oh come on, that was one time! Sheesh we get lost in the woods for five measly days and-"

"Five measly days? We were ten years old. We had everyone in the entire three surrounding counties looking for us! One thing is for sure our parents never trusted to take us camping together again after that incident,"

"You followed me when I suggested we leave the camp at night to go exploring," she reminded me.

"Because we weren't supposed to go farther than a few feet away from the campsite,"

"Okay and what about that time we got arrested for disturbing the peace?"

"Hey you promised never to bring that up again!" she took a deep breath. "Anyway there is no way this next idea is going to get us in trouble. In fact I think it will help you,"

"Okay?" I questioned.

"I think you should make a video,"

I tried to figure out what the heck that she was talking about. Natalie loved acting mysterious just to annoy me. "To find your biological family," she said.

"Okay Natalie enough with the suspense already. What do you mean?"

"You've talked about finding your biological family and you remember a few names. Names that you can't exactly place. Maybe they are the names of your biological family members," she explained. "And if you make a video of your plight maybe it'll reach them,"

I shook my head. "Natalie my video would have to go viral for that to happen and it's extremely hard to go viral,"

"Include Beau and Bailey in the video. People love baby videos. People love dog videos. Including them will expand the demographic of people interested. I think you should give it a try,"

I sighed. "I doubt it's going to work but I guess it's worth a try. After all this is the first idea you've had that likely won't get us into trouble,"

"Ha, ha," she said. "Anyway, get into position. The ocean is the perfect backdrop,"

I took Beau out of his carrier and walked a few feet away. Bailey was instantly at my side.

"1, 2, and 3!"

"Hi, my name is Renesmee. But people usually just call me Nessie," I chuckled. "About eleven years ago I was found in the middle of nowhere somewhere outside of Port Angeles in the state of Washington. I was about four or five years old at the time. I suffered a terrible accident and ended up losing most of my memory as a result. I was adopted right away after that and then my family and I moved to Orlando, Florida. But recently I've been thinking a lot about finding my biological family. I have so many questions. Why did you abandon me when I was so little? Was I a horrible child? Did I do something wrong? Why did you just leave me there to die? I don't remember much about you. Just a few names mainly. Names that I can't really place. Edward, Bella, Carlisle, Esme, Emmett, Jasper, Rosalie, Alice, Jacob. I also remember names like Aro, Caius, Marcus, Jane, Alec, and something about a Volturi? If you guys are my family and you see this I hope you find it in your hearts to reach out to me. I understand if you want nothing to do with me. After all that's probably why you left me all those years ago. But I just need answers. I've had a great life here. I have two loving adoptive parents, and a loving adoptive younger brother. This little guy here is my son Beau. Yeah mom, dad, if you're seeing this know that you have a grandson. I gave birth to him two months ago. This is my dog Bailey who I've had for three years now. Anyway, I guess that's it,"

"Perfect," Natalie said as she ended the recording."Here is your phone back. I'd upload that right away if I were you,"

I uploaded the video to YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. "Well it's out of our hands now I guess. At least this idea won't get us in huge trouble this time,"

"Look at that intense gaze that Beau has in the video,"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean just look at how focused he is on the camera. It's just so unnatural for a baby to be that focused on anything for that length of time. It's weird,"

"Yeah, I guess so,"
