Renesme

"The Volturi are coming again?" I heard my Mother ask Aunt Alice. "Yes, but only Aro is coming this time, he wants to check on Renesme's progress and of course offer the invitation for us to join them," she replied with distaste. Aunt Alice was wanted very much among the Volturi as was my parents and myself. She made it clear to me that the Volturi was something that our family wouldn't want to get involved in. We would be constantly used and never let go, she told me. "When will he be here?" "In a few days at the most." Mother finally seemed to realize that I was there. "Nessie, you remember Aro don't you?" she asked. As if I could forget them. I showed her a flash of images, telling her that I did, in fact, remember Aro. She sighed when I had finished. "I wasn't you to be on your best behaviour when he visits, understand?" I nodded my head. She turned to Alice, "Let Carlisle and the rest of the family know, I'm sure Edward and Jacob knows and is on their way here already." At that moment Father breezed through the door, and put his arms protectively around Mother and me. "Alice are you sure Aro means no harm, you see it nowhere?" asked Father. "You know how I am with Nessie," she said, "she is never clear in my minds eye, although it is easier as Nessie has been with us longer." "Mother, I'll go let Jacob know, he'll want to know whats going on," I said wanting something to do, but knowing that he would probably follow right after Father. Rarely did I leave the house, humans could not see me. It would raise more suspension than there was already. Luckily I had stayed in the same place my life, because Mother wanted me to stop growing before we moved. Though I think the main reason was that she didn't want to leave Uncle Charlie behind. He visted me every week at least. Father disapproved of this, but let Mother have her way. I wanted to stay here also. I was in no hurry to leave my Uncle Charlie. "No Nessie, Edward will do it," she said as she glanced at him. "I'm sorry but you're going to have to remain around the house until Aro gets here, its too dangerous." "Mother, I am 15 years old in human years-" She cut me off, "And only 4 in mine. So please stay inside, of at least around our cottage." Jacob came through the door in his wolf form and Rosalie wrinkled her nose as she came down the staircase. "It stinks like wet dog in here," she said as Jacob laughed. She glared at him. Rosalie spoiled me, well they all did, but Rosalie the most. They both turned to smile at me. As my family briefed them of what was happening they grew increasingly worried. **** "Wake up Nessie," Mother said as she gently shook me awake with her familiar cold hands, "Aro is almost here. I want you to get dressed really nicely. When he gets here I want you to stay around me or Edward. The Volturi can be very dangerous people." "Where's My Jacob?" I asked with worry, he should be here. "He's waiting for you, so hurry and get dressed." Putting on my clothes as fast I could, I thought about Jacob and the love I felt for him. Mother and Father told me that when I got older I would marry him. Rosalie of course would then cut them off and tell me I had a choise. Marriage was not an issue I needed to worry about now though. The door opened and I smelled a strange aroma. That must be Aro, I finshed and went downstairs. He looked the same as our meeting four years ago. I shuddered and went and sat beside Jacob. Aro looked at us with disapproval. He could shove it, Jacob and I were none of his buisness anyways. "Hello Renesme," he said attempting to be friendly. Standing up, I crossed the room and showed him. He didn't jump as Uncle Charlie usually did, or anyone else that wasn't used to it. He looked at me with admiration when I finished. "Remarkable," was all he could say. Walking back to the couch seemed to take forever and I sat beside Jacob putting my hand in his, I looked into his deep eyes. "Renesme, feel free to join us. We help keep the secret safe and you could help us. Of course, we would welcome you and your family he said looking around. "No thank you," said Carlisle politely. Aro sighed and stood up the same time I was hit with intense pain. "Jane stay away from her!" I heard Mother shout. Jacob snarled and phased. Someone grabbed me from behind. The last thing I heard was "Nessie" and all went black.
