Everything around me is little...

[clairebear3232]

Claire waited anxiously at the window, her little fingers pressed into the window sill as if she moved at all she'd miss their arrival.
Claire and Lilly's house was located on the edge of the beach, instilling in the girl's a deep love of the ocean. The house was fairly big with each girl having her own bedroom, a guest room the master bedroom and the office. However Claire expected to either spend most of her day in the large playroom, or the outdoor tree fort in the back yard.
Leah was coming to visit her mother today, and she was brining the little girl Renesmee who Claire still thought to be a princess. Nobody had corrected her when they had met last and so she had been telling her twin sister Lily all about how the pretty princess Nessie was coming to their house today.
Lily was very much the opposite of Claire. Shy and a little on the quiet side, she liked to play alone..when Claire let her. She however instantly believed her twin when she told her about the little princess and was nervous to meet both her and the beautiful woman who like Claire's Quil was a wolf as well that Claire kept going on about.
"Claire honey, Leah won't get here any faster because your waiting at the window." April, Claire and Lily's mom stated with a slight grin.
April hadn't seen her cousin Leah in quite some time and was glad she finally had a day off so they could get together.
Claire didn't even turn to face her mother as she addressed her. She was completely stubborn and would not budge from this spot until she saw Leah appear with Nessie.
"Alright it's your choice, I'm not going to stop you." April replied
Lily sat in the corner dressing and undressing her baby dolls saying "No no, ugly." Over and over again.
Claire rested her head on her hands, although it had been only a couple of minutes ago that she began her watch that was a very long time in the eyes of a five year old.
"When will Leah come?" Claire demanded of her mother.
"She'll be here soon, come here, let me fix your hair." April replied
Claire shook her head, it was brushed and everything she'd just deal with it being down today. She had no patience to wait while her mother braided it or something. Not when Leah and Nessie were coming!
"I meant to tell you, I called Mikka's house and asked if she could come today too. That way her parents can have some one on one time with Misha." April who had grown rather scatterbrained after having twins, sighed as she realized she had forgotten something again.
"Mikka too!" Claire shrieked, Mikka was little Claire's best friend.
She bounced over to her mother to give her a hug and scattering toys raced back to the window to watch for their visitors. Today she knew, was going to be fantastic.

[[TAG: Leah, Ness & Mikka]]

[Leah Clearwater]

"Don't bitch at me." Pause, "Oh, crap! Don't use the word bitch either!" Leah said as she drove up the high way to her aunt's house. "I don't wanna go, this wasn't my idea but if I have to go, I am not going alone!" Leah wasn't sure how, or why she was going to visit her Aunt. All she knew was when Sue Clearwater said 'go do this' you went and did that. You didn't fight back. Sue Clearwater, or mama wolf's wrath wasn't what one would call all bark and no bite.

"Besides, we can always say I have to leave shortly to take you to a movie or something. That way you can be my excuse to leave . . . "

Leah loved her Aunt, she did. But, her aunt was a Young and Leah had trouble with that side of the family at times. Not trouble as in, bad blood, but trouble as in her aunt would always hope that Emily and Leah would make up. Leah bit back a groan and hoped her aunt forgot to bring that up this time. Granted, it was a nice wish but somethings weren't meant to me. Maye one day, Leah would stop phasing and grow older and past this. One day. Maybe.

Another thing that bothered Leah; was no matter how badly she wanted to quit phasing, move on. She also enjoyed her friendship with Jake, and Ness. When she grew old, they would stay forever teenagers. She was afraid of losing them, but wanted her normal like more then her next breath. Parking out side her aunt's Leah looked down at Ness. "You know your my girl. I love Claire, but . . . your my girl." Leah said to make sure there would be no hissy fits this time.

[◇Renesmee Cullen◇]

Renesmee sat in the front seat, though she has only been on this earth a few short year's she could pass as a 7 maybe even a 8 year old. So finally she was aloud in the front seat of the car, no more baby seats and stuff. She was tall enough to have the seat belt hit her in all the right places. (Yes you should be 9 years old to sit up front, but Renesmee had cried enough that people just sort of gave in. Leah was one of these people.) Renesmee covered her mouth, sucking in a deep breath of air. "Awwww.... you said a bad word!" Renesmee said with a giggle. Yeah, Leah said bad words a lot these day's which only made Renesmee giggle, so she liked it. "you know... that's $100 in the jar..." Renesmee said nodding her head. Money was no object to the Cullen's and when a young girl got so much money, a dollar to Renesmee was more like a penny. So $100 bucks would teach her something. "but you don't have to put money in there..." Renesmee added. "Cuz its only for people with the Cullen last name. "She informed Leah, who probable already knew this, Jacob had to have bitched to her at some point. As Leah stopped the car Renesmee took her belt off, and turned to leave the car, but was stopped by Leah, who spoke. "I know that Leah." Renesmee said with a sigh.

"I was young then, and stupid!" Renesmee once more informed Leah. Renesmee was in her 'teenage phase' so she knew right and wrong, yet the 7 year old in her took charge at some point's. So you usually got a teenager, or a 7 year old. Both selfish, yet one could accept and move on where the other side got stuck on things. Let's just hope Renesmee could forget about her dislike for Clarie and move on with her life. It was complicated being a little half vampire. But someone had to do it! "anyway. I'm much to old to play with them!" Renesmee said with a giggle, trying to act all old, and it sorta worked... kinda. It was kinda funny that Renesmee looked much older then all the girl's when in fact she was the second youngest. She would have been the very youngest but Nooo.... some other girl would be there who was a whole 6 months younger then she. But her brain told her to forget it, while body(Or her 7 year old mind) told her to throw a fit about it. So far her mind was winning. It was a battle in Renesmee's mind. It was away physical body or mental body, who would win? you just never knew who would come out and when.

When Claire saw the car arrive she ran from the window to her mother's side.
"There here!" She cried then running to Lily, "There here Lily!" Claire tended to be the one to get excited easily, while her sister Lily just smiled shyly.
Lily was rather unwilling to meet these new people. Her mom's cousin and this princess girl. She was the one who'd hide in the corner. Maybe joining in if she felt more comfortable.
Lily and Claire were so strange. Claire was smaller, and had the very outgoing personality and Lily was bigger, and was so very shy.
Claire went to the door and pulled it open wide, letting in a cool breeze. It was beginning to rain so she wanted it to be as easy as possible for Leah and Nessie to get into the house.
"Mommy! Get the cookies!" Claire whined and then realizing she was acting rather rudely added, "I'm sorry I meant please."
She was usually polite but on days like this she forgot herself.
She was used to be at her Aunt's house where Emily would instantly pull out cookies, cakes, and assorted food for her guests. Claire's mom rarely got visitors because she worked rather strange hours, and Claire's daddy was away on yet another business trip. So she wasn't used to being a hostess.
April smiled at her daughter, and went to retrieve the cookies and some lemonade.
The wind stirred Claire's hair and she crossed her arms waiting for the two to get to her door.

[Leah Clearwater]

"Yeah," Leah said in managing to hit a monotone and still sound sarcastic all in the same breath, "Weren't we all." Leah knew she was talking that 'THAT' moment. The one Leah blocked out. It had been one her 'less greater moments'. Still, everyone said that it was easier to make the right call when you looked backed. Hindsight, or something. Looking back, Leah doubted she would have done a damn thing different. Bitched a bit more, or maybe just walked out.

That was the trouble with hindsight, it felt you with maybes.

Leah meet Ness at the head of the car, took a deep and troubled breath before walking up to the door. She could hear Claire in side and knew Ness could to. The humans could not hear them talking yet however, they were to far from the house. "Just be nice to her, we get in and we get out." Before Emily's side of the family tried to use guilt or worse, kindness on them.

[◇Renesmee Cullen◇]

The parked the car and Renesmee could hear a young girl, Clair freak out behind the walls of the home. Renesmee could see the young girl getting so excited, and for what? To see Renesmee? Yeah right. Renesmee just ignore it as the car was parked and out Leah and herself went. "What if I don't wanna be nice!" Renesmee fired back, her I'm better then you kinda attitude coming out. She truly was one lost little girl. She never knew how to be, how to act. She was so very mature, yet at the same time she just wanted to be a child. She just wanted to make a mistake and freak out, she wanted to fight, and scream, and cry. Yet at the same time she knew she could not do such a thing. She wanted to sit on the floor kicking and screaming until she was taken home, but yet again, she could not do such a thing. She had to act her age, and not her mental age, not her physically age. But she had to act how old she looked when in public, yet when at home she had to be mature. Of course she could be silly, but she was a Cullen, and Cullen's do not throw temper tantrums. Well most don't, the only real exception would be Rose.... and not even that. Renesmee was just confused that's all. she was one lost little girl, lost in a world that was not meant for her. Oh well, there was no turning back now, so she had to move forward towards the one little girl, whom she did not like. Towards a home she knew no one, towards the unknown. Leah was her security blanket from this moment on. And she would cling to Leah, as if Leah was the one keeping her alive.

((You all make me feel so loved. *cries* ~ *wink* Kidding))

Claire waited impatiently at the door, bobbing up and down like a rubber duck in a bath tub. She looked at her sister who was waiting there anxiously clutching her dolls to her chest and felt a mixture of sadness for her and anger. Why did she get all the calm? Claire was like a rocket waiting to go off!
She watched them get out of the car...watched them take FOREVER doing so.
Claire didn't hear April telling her to be patient she was too psyched that they had shown up at all. She knew perfectly well that Renesmee hated her. She just had no idea why.
She moved away from the door and sat next to Lily, wrapping her sister in a tight hug.
"It's okay Lily, Leah and Renesmee are nice." Claire lied, about Renesmee at least. She only remembered blurs of the event that took place that day, but Nessie hating her stuck pretty hard.
