This was a very special morning. Today she was to spend the day with her Grandfather Charlie. How exciting that would be! Renesmee was more excited then she let people see, well Jasper would be the only one who could truly tell, but he was not around so her little secret was safe. Before she was aloud to go, her mother and father had quit the talk with her, about how she had to act. She was not to show Charlie anything the way she did them. She was only to talk in very short sentences, and she could not use very big words.
Renesmee understood all of this. She knew she had to protect her grandfather from this world. The world in which he did not really belong to. It was the whole need to know. Renesmee was not to read to Charlie, and she had to tolerate picture books. All that baby stuff, she had to pretend to like. Renesmee looked about 4 or 5 now. It was hard to tell, she as still a toddler. So she had to act like it. There was a long list of things she should not to around Charlie, and Renesmee made sure she practiced talking like a little kid. The last thing Renesmee wanted was to frighten her grandfather.
So this morning was the big day. All the work she did the last few nights, will soon be put into practice. Renesmee was woken up early dressed in a cute little shirt and skirt combo, before being buckled in the back seat of her fathers car. Then off they went. Of course Renesmee was not aloud to ride in her mothers 'after' car because there was no back seat, so the only logical car to take was her fathers, or Bella's husband car, a Volvo.
Renesmee was a little worried about how Charlie would react to her. Seeing as it has been about a week or so since they have seen each other, and with her growing so fast... Well Charlie was sure to notice. This was no small change. She has grown a couple of inches, her baby face is starting to slim out, making her look a lot more like a child then a baby. Her hair is longer, her eye were filled with knowledge rather then wonder. So many changes, but Charlie was strong, he would lover her all the same. Renesmee was sure of this. It was just a matter of getting by the shock factor.
"Mommy?" Renesmee said from the back seat of the car, her voice lower then normal. "Are you going to stay long? Or am I spending the day alone with grandpa?" Renesmee asked. Thought she thought she knew the answer. "Because what if I mess up? And I scare him?" Renesmee asked, a little concerned. She was now having second thoughts about her acting ability. Though being a Cullen, you had to have exceptional acting skills. Renesmee was not sure she had them down yet.
((Alright!!!! I did not go over board in this intro! Woot!))

"I'll stay for a little while," Bella said looking at her daughter. "But you'll be spending most of the day with your grandfather." Driving was easy she didn't even really have look at the road. She had always wonder about that when she was human and Edward driving like manic. Though now she did the same thing, all of them did really. "You'll do just fine," Bella assured her daughter. "Just do what you've been practicing and everything will be fine." Bella knew Charlie was strong he had noticed Renesmee's constant growth, but he tries to ignore things like that. On a need to know bases. He knew she had changed as well from being human to a vampire, but she would never change again. And he didn't know all of the details. And after a few years she wonder if they would have leave.
Charlie wouldn't live forever like her and her new family. And that pained her she loved her father and would miss him so much. But now wasn't the time for thinking like that. Bella pulled into the driveway where she could hear her father in the house
Bella got out of the car and got Renesmee out as any parent would do. Though she could probably figure out to get out on her own, they needed a show. "You'll do fine," Bella whispered. "I love you so much," Bella picked up Renesmee out of the car and placed her on the ground she grabbed her hand and made their way to the house. |

Like any proud grandpa Charlie would have loved to take his grand baby out and stop every person on the street and introduce them to his grandchild. Two things stopped him. Once, doing so would make him uncomfortable. Displaying things like that wasn't who Charlie was. The other thing stopping him was . . . hmmm. . .
The kid grew up more every time he blinked. He had a question he needed to ask Bella today that he had debated on asking for a while now. With Nessie's growth rate, he couldn't take her out and introduce her to people. That girl grew like Jacob Black, and if Nessie had not looked so much like Edward then Charlie would have wondered about her parentage.
When hear heard the car, (Which he only did because he was all but looking out the window waiting for them) he walked to the door and opened it.

"kay...." Renesmee said looking down at her hands for the rest of the ride. That was the last thing she said until they reached Charlies house, which did not take very long. Renesmee really did love and trust her mother more then anything, but still she had her doubts. Which she tried to push to the very back of her mind. Renesmee was about to unbuckle herself, but then she remember that a human 4 year old would not really be able to get out of a car by his or her self. So she sat there waiting for her mother to come get her. "I love you too mommy." She added as she was lifted from the car and placed onto the floor. Renesmee held her mothers hand a little harder then what was really necessary, but she was nervous.
The nerves were soon replaced with excitement as soon as she saw her grandfather. Renesmee looked up to her mother for a second before letting go of Bella's hand and running the rest of the way to Charlie. Of course she made extra sure to run very very slow, human speed. She added a little pretend trip towards the end, though it did not look too much like a trip more like she missed a step or something, but she was trying. She remembered Jacob saying stuff about how Bella used to fall around a lot and how he was worried that she might have inherited that fact. The vampire in her was a little more dominate then the human. "Grandpa!" Renesmee squealed. As she moved her short little legs the last few feet, to Charlie.

Bella smiled at her father when she saw him come outside. She could feel Renesmee's squeeze on her hand she knew she was nervous, but she would be just fine. They had been practicing for a while and knew things were going to go smoothly. Bella watched her daughter as she ran off to meet her grandfather. She was running slow at least for a vampire and even tried to trip. Though it didn't really look that way to her it probably did to Charlie. Bella remembered as a human she was very clubmsy though the memories were foggy she did remember them some.
Bella followed after her daughter at a slow human pace and smiled more at her father. Hey dad," Bella greeted making her way up to see him. |

Charlie caught Nessie before her trip could turn into a fall like he had always did with Bella and was very glad for some sign that things were not as weird as he always saw. "Thanks for dropping her off Bells." Charlie said and waited for her to get closer then shifted Ness to his one arm (Wow this kid was growing!) and hugged Bella with the other. "Sue is going to make us lunch later, so you don't have to worry about my cooking for Nessie, er, Renesmee." Bella wasn't a fan of the nickname last he had heard.

So the pretend trip worked. That was a little surprise, a good one at that. Renesmee was not sure her little stunt would work, but points for her, it did. When she was lifted from the ground she let a small little giggle go, as she put her one hand around Charlies shoulder like she was giving him a hug. She let her head fall onto that same shoulder, while she stuck her thumb in her mouth. Normal kids did that right? She was never into the whole thumb sucking, but she saw that most kids always put stuff in their mouths. Renesmee never had the need to do this, in fact it was kind of, well nasty. But then again, it would look 'normal'. For Charlie Renesmee would do just about anything.
Renesmee moved her hand a fraction of an inch, towards Charlies face. She was about to tell him something, but remembered that she was not aloud to communicate that way. So instead she would have to talk. "Mama? You leavin' now?" She asked in a small little voice. Brushing some of her hair back off her face, then sticking her thumb right back into her mouth. She did not really want her mother to leave yet. But at the same time, it looked like Charlie was saying a goodbye, rather then a come on in lets talk a little. She knew she would be fine with her Grandfather, she just felt like she had to hold herself back. She could not be the real Renesmee around him, it would creep him out. It made her a little sad that she could not show him all the amazing things she knew. But as she aged, she would be aloud to do more and more around him. She just had to wait.

Bella smiled as her father caught Renesmee though she wasn't really tripping it was a good benefit for Charlie. No doubt remembering all the times she herself fell down when she was a child, human. With the rapid growth of Renesmee maybe this wouldn't seem so strange. Bella watched as Renesmee sucked her finger as a normal child of about her age would be doing. She had been practicing and she knew it would pay off.
Bella hugged her father in return. She loved her father and missed him dearly. She tried to avoid his skin knowing hers would be ice cold to him. Something that would worry him even more. "Your father's waiting on my sweetheart," Bella replied tucking Renesmee's hair behind her ear out of her face. She kissed her on the forehead. "I'll be back soon." Bella looked up to her father and hugged him as well, "Thanks dad, I'm sure you'll both have a good time." |

"Oh umm." Charlie turned around and set Nessie down by the door. "Wait right here, Darlin' while I walk your mother to the car." Charlie didn't want Nessie to hear what he had to ask Bella about. He turned and walked to the car, waiting for Bella before speaking up. He was looking at Nessie as he spoke. "You know I don't want to know anything, Bells, but I gotta ask." He sighed and keep going as best as he could. His voice wasn't very sure of what he was asking. "She grows so fast that umm. . . Will she keep doing this and . . . .how long . . . "
Charlie wasn't in the know as to if Nessie would ever stop growing. By Charlie's horrible math Nessie would age and die before him self. He hoped not. No one should have to watch there grandchildren die.

Renesmee smiled at her mother as she tucked the hair behind her ear. She had a small smile on her face. "Love you mama." Renesmee said softly before Charlie put her down. "Bye mama" She added once Charlie put her down and walked after Bella. Unknown to Charlie, Renesmee could still hear him. Being part vampire had its perks. So Renesmee stood there, thumb in mouth, just looking at her mother and grandfather. So far so good, she told herself waiting patiently for Charlie to come back. It did not surprise her the question Charlie asked. It was only a matter of time. If Charlie did not notice her growth, then he would need to get checked. She just let out a small sigh.

"Bye Renesmee," Bella said waving at her daughter while following her father. She figured he wanted to try and keep Renesmee from hearing what he was about to say not that they could hide much from a few feet away she would still hear. Part of being half vampire. Bella smiled at her father as he struggled for the words to day. "She'll slow down soon," never mind that she would stop growing all together no need to let Charlie know that much.
She tried to keep it at a need to know only. "It's nothing to worry about dad I promise," Bella replied. She didn't want her father to worry about this. She knew there were a few strange things that he was bound to notice but not say anything about. |

But Charlie was worried. He nodded his head and leaned in to his Bella's cheek. She was so cold, but Charlie put that along with her eyes, new looks, and new smell in the 'I don't want to know' category. "I will see you tonight." he said and then headed back up to were he left Nessie. Turning he sat down on the step so they could watch Bella drive away together.
looking back at Nessie Charlie gave her a smile, "Your getting taller and taller kid." he said, Pulling her back into his arms. "Your going to be taller then your Ma if you keep this up." He didn't know if she understood but he was just talking.

"Drive carefully Mama" Renesmee said a large smile growing on her face. She covered her mouth with both her little hands trying to hold in a small giggle. Yes, she throw that last part in for Charlie. Drive safe, of course Bella would. It was too easy to drive a car when you were a vampire. Anyway, the only thing that could get hurt if Bella crashed was the car and whatever it was she hit. But Bella would not crash no matter how fast she went. So the last part was like an inside joke.. almost. A joke that would not be funny to many others.
Renesmee let out a little sigh, letting her hands fall back into her lap, where she folded them, nicely. She was such a proper little girl. Of course that's what you get for living in a house full of vampires, who were all born hundreds of years ago. "I grew..." Renesmee started, trying to remember how to word this. She did not want to sound very smart, yet she did not want to sound like a stupid child. "a whole forth an inch yesterday!" Renesmee said. That was not correct grammar, not at all, but a 4 year old might say something like that. Imitating her parents or something. Who knew. "That's a lot of inches." She added on, just to dumb herself down a little... or so she hoped it did that. this might be hard. But she could do it. Now she just had to figure out what they were going to do today. They had so many options. But where to start?

Yes, Bella did drive allot better. He watched Bella drive off with his 'in thought' face on. When Nessie spoke again he got distracted and looked down at her. Wow she was getting big fast. A fourth of an inch was a big deal. Especially for a kid her size. Charlie gave a stressed sigh and then smiled at her. "Wow, kidO, that is a lot!" It was! More then he liked. "Before long you'll be to old to want to hang out with your grandpa." He joked and brushed very soft hair back from her face. At lest she seemed strong. She would need to be strong to handle everything in her life. Super strong.
"What would you like to do today?" He asked her still sitting on the porch. "Want to go fishing? Or we can do something around the house." He wasn't supposed to take her out in public but if he took her to the beach, or fishing he could make it just him and her. That wouldn't be public. "Or hiking." That would be less public.

"No! Your just silly grandpa!!" Renesmee said with a small giggle. "I looovvveee hanging out with yooouuu!" She said with a little smile, oh that heart breaking smile. "Your so funny..." She said with yet another giggle. Renesmee was just a happy little girl that's all. A very happy little girl. She loved life, and that was that. With what her parents were, with what her life was, she just had to be happy. She like Charlie said had to be strong, she had to understand, and she did. Renesmee did not know if it was possible to be any happier.
"huuuummmmmmm" She said putting her finger on her chin tapping it lightly. Acting as if she was deep in though. "Mama says I cannot go out in public..." She said, imitating Bella almost perfectly. "And I don't want her to be mad." Renesmee said with a small shrug. "Maybe we should stay in the house, like Mama says." She said before standing up. Though she did not really know why she did this. Man Renesmee must be like the perfect child. Always following the rules. Well then again Renesmee was not like other kids, and her thoughts were so much older.

Charlie nodded his head and knew she was right. Hmm. Smart kid. "Well, lets go in side." He picked her up and stood up to walk inside the house. "If your hungry, I can make you some eggs." He really only cooked that one meal. Breakfast. He wasn't good for much else when it came to cooking. It was why Sue was coming over later. To cook for them. "When you Mom, used to come stay with me as a kid, I cooked her breakfast all the time too." Kids liked hearing about parents as kids, didn't they?

"Okay, inside it is!" Renesmee said with a little sharp nod of her head. Renesmee waited for a second or two, before lifting her hands. She was not sure if she wanted to be picked up or if she wanted to walk. Though it seemed that her granddaddy wanted to carry her, so she went along with it. As soon as she was lifted in the air, a little giggle left her lips. When she was safety in his arms, Renesmee put her little hand over his shoulder and let it rest on his back almost.
"Really?" Renesmee said with a bigger smile. "Did Mama like your eggs?" Renesmee said, her little eye brows squeezing together a little, her thinking face, as Bella calls it. Renesmee was a little surprised by this info. She always herd that her grand-father Charlie was a horrible cook. Well not as bad as her grand-mother Renee(who she has yet to met.) But that's a whole different story. "Cuz I bet, you make the beeessstttiiisstt eggs ever!" Renesmee said, as she came out of her thinking face, and back to her normal self. She remembered over hearing something about not telling the whole truth, is okay sometimes. She did not want to hurt Charlies feelings by saying that she hears people say he's a bad cook, yet she did not know if she should eat the eggs or not. Well the egg's cant be so bad. Most human food tasted the same anyway. So who cares. She would eat a small amount. She was growing fast, but she was still just a little girl. Anyway she just fed with Jacob not that long ago, so she did not need to eat. But again she did not want to hurt Charlies feelings. How she loved him. Her grad daddy.

"Well. Not the best but I make good eggs. I am not much good at cooking anything from bacon and eggs." He told her. "Your Mom used to do all the cooking around here. She sure was a good cook." He chuckled, "No like your grandma. Renee, she would try her best but she wasn't nothin' like your Ma."
Charlie sat her down at the table and looked at her for a moment as if not sure if he should find her a phone book to sit on, or a booster seat or something to do while he cooked. The house looked as it always did. Bella's school photos everywhere, the fading and chipped yellow paint, and everything the way it had when Renee lived there when Bella was an infant. Now he had Bella's daughter in the seat Bella used to sit at.

Renesmee giggled a little. "Oh... Momma is a good cook... she makes very good food. Everyone loves it. " Renesmee said with yet another giggle. A giggle Charlie would never know the true meaning behind the giggle. Renesmee basically did her own 'cooking' if you counted killing and drinking the blood of an animal. Of course she would get some help, well if Jacob was there he would help her take down the bigger animals, of course Renesmee was unaware of the fact that she was being helped. But that was a different story. "Grandmama is a good cook also. She is always cooking and making yummy stuff..." Renesmee said, talking about Esme of course. She has not yet met Renee. Renesmee had always wonder why, but her daddy had said that Renee was not read to met Renesmee, and her specialniss. Or something along those lines. Basically Renesmee could not handle 'their' world.
When Renesmee was place on the table, she was a little small, she could see over the table, but only just. Eating would be hard, but then again Renesmee really did not need to eat. Renesmee would eat anyway. Human food was nasty to her anyway. But she had an act to keep up. Renesmee scooted to the very back of the chair, so her feet no longer hung off the edge of the chair. The next time she came over, her legs would most likely be able to hang off the edge. "Granddaddy" Renesmee said watching him, as he looked at her. "I think I need a booster seat!" Renesmee said stretching her self up a little more, so she could a little better. Yeah she needed a phone book or something to sit on. Yeah, she needed something to sit on.

"I think you do too!" Charlie said and turned around looking for one. "Ummm." He opened a few cabinet doors and pulled out a big pot, then walked back over and lifted Ness up with one arm and out the pot down upside down, the put Ness back down on it. "That ok for ya, kid?" Charlie asked her.
He walked over to the china cabinet that he used more for storage then chinaware and pulled a pen and paper out. "You can draw while I cook if you want." He put then down before her, then pulled a shoe box out of the bottom of the same cabinet and put it on the table and opened it. "These are things you mom drew we as a kid."

Renesmee giggled a little. "Yeeaeahhh..." She said letting her legs kick the pot a little. It made quite the funny sound. But she did not do it more then the once. Renesmee could remember when she was a lot smaller, not that long ago... when she took Esme's second best silver and started bending it, and throwing it all over. Yeah, those were good times. It was a blessing to remember all her 'childhood things. Being a vampire, or at least half a one sure had its advantages. Like she really never forgot anything. At least if she put a small effort into remembering she would, though if she wanted to forget, she was sure she would. She still had half a human mind.
Renesmee looked up at Charlie. Draw? That was not something she normally did, so this was going to be quite fun. She did not often do 'human' things. She was much more active. So when she got a change to draw or do any of those normal human things, it was fun. Though she got a little worried, she was not sure how well she should draw. She was not perfect, but she could draw like a teenager could. Not that baby scribble. "You kept it all?" Renesmee asked, went the shoe box was placed in front of her. Well her problem was solved. Some drawings from when Bella was younger. She would try to match that. So Renesmee reached out and took one of the pictures out of the box. She started looking at it, examining it really. She did not want to be too advanced.
