Chapter 3
"Come on Nessie bear" Emmett laughed, picking her up in one hand,
"Erm Renesmee" Edward nodded towards Carlisle, Emmett placed her back on the floor and she ran to her grandfather and hugged his leg,
"Sorry grandfather" she smiled and he melted, then she left.
"You two don’t realise how much more love she has brought into this house" he smiled
"Its like we all have a new daughter" he sighed, Bella was thoughtful for a moment, Edward watched her face puzzled,
"Edward where you christened" she asked
"I have no idea, probably most children were in my time, why?"
"Well I know we cant have renesmee christened, so why don't we have a naming ceremony instead, that’s what I had , one of my moms new age ideas" she smiled, "We could name all your family as honorary guardians of Renesmee" she smiled as she saw the penny drop for him.
"That is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard" he kissed her softly, "I love you so much " he smiled. Their embrace was interrupted by Bella’s phone vibrating, she took it out of her pocket and looked at the caller ID, she opened her phone,
"Hi Bells" came the voice on the other end,
"Charlie" she spat, Edward placed his hand on hers and shook his head.
"Erm... is he there"
"Who" she snapped again and Edward closed his eyes and shrugged, he didn’t want her to fight with Charlie over him.
"Edward, please can I speak with him", she passed the phone and sat onto the sofa,
"Hello Charlie" he said in his velvet voice,
"Erm hi yeah listen about the other night" Charlie choked,
"No problem really Charlie" he smiled and Bella hissed.
"No I shouldn’t have said what I did" he was finding it hard to find the right words,
"Charlie you were right I didn’t know what it had been like for Bella or you I'm so sorry" Edwards eyes closed and he pinched the bridge of his nose, Bella stood and held her husband close, the phone clicked off.
Edward smiled and turned towards the door as Emmett and Renesmee came bursting in,
"Nessie get here now" shouted Emmett, Renesmee turned and hid behind Bella sticking her tongue out.
"What did you do" Bella asked pulling her around from behind her,
"She ran off and hid" he snapped
"Oh I thought you were playing hide and seek, sorry Emmett" sighed Alice
"Don’t you ever scare me like that again young lady, we need you to teach Henry how to behave himself" he smiled
"Oh I will, I promise" she tugged at his sleeve and he let out one of his booming laughs and kissed her on the head.
"Come on Renesmee lets go get Henry" said Jasper holding out his hand, she took it and they left.
"Jasper"
"Yes Renesmee"
"Where did Henry come from"
"I don’t know, but we must make him feel welcome he is frightened and confused at the moment"
"Jasper"
"Yes"
"Henry is Emmett and Rose's yes?"
"Yes he is"
"Jasper"
"Yes Renesmee" he chuckled
"When are you and Alice going to get a little one?"
"Hmm I think we have enough with you for now" he laughed swinging her into his arms.
"Jasper"
"Yes Renesmee" he sighed
"I love you" she giggled and jumped out of his arms, as they reached the cottage door.
She held out her hand for the key, Jasper obliged, he felt it best he had both hands free as he could feel the tension coming form the frightened little boy behind the door.
"You can unlock it but let me go in first okay" he said firmly, "and if I ask you to run home you do it immediately" she nodded
He guessed his Alice would know anyway, but he still wanted to protect Renesmee.
The door opened, Henry was in a low crouching position in the far corner. Jasper walked slowly through the door, renesmee peered round his arm, a low hiss grew in Henry’s throat.
"Calm Henry, you are safe with us" he held out his hand and Henry snapped at them, Bella’s side of Renesmee’s character took over, "How rude , don't you dare snap at Jasper" she shouted coming from behind Jasper wagging her finger.
"Nessie no!" but before he could react to Henry he had made a lunge at her pinning her in the corner.
She squealed and within seconds Edward was pulling a hissing Henry off of his daughter.
"Take that out!" he growled passing him to Jasper.
Renesmee wriggled free of her father and ran towards Jasper, who was knelt behind Henry holding his arms down, she stood in front of him her eyes black and solid, Edward was behind her in a flash.
"Stop that!" she shouted, "NOW!" she continued , "This is not the way to behave Henry" Edward shook his head, she was definitely Bella’s daughter.
Henry growled,
"Shut up!", "You don't scare me" she hissed and thanks to a little help from Jasper too he fell quiet.
"That’s better" she smiled "I'm Renesmee but you can call me Nessie and you will learn to behave yourself if you are going to live in my family" she walked around him and whispered into Jasper’s ear he nodded and Edward lifted her into his arms.
"You are so much like your mother" he laughed kissing her nose.
"Erm Renesmee" Edward nodded towards Carlisle, Emmett placed her back on the floor and she ran to her grandfather and hugged his leg,
"Sorry grandfather" she smiled and he melted, then she left.
