I was lying on my and Rose's bed on the second floor. Then I started hearing noises. Vampires flying up and down the stairs in inhuman speed. Especially Alice. What is going on? Edward didn't answer me; he just kept going around asking Nessie questions, I could smell it. Edward!? What's going on? Nothing, not even a low whisper. Then Rose came in the door and walked straight to her walk in closet.
"Rose? What's happening?" I asked and sat up on the huge double bed. "Are you going somewhere? With Alice?"
"Yes, I am.. We're going to Paris, to see the new collections" she explained. "We just found out that it's starting tomorrow.. I have no idea how this went past Alice" She said, referring to Alice's "see- into- the future" powers. Then she turned around with two fully packed suitcases.
"Let me help you with those" I told her and went to carry her suitcases. "I really hope you have a nice trip to Paris, Rose. I love you" I told her and kissed her sweet and beautiful red lips.
I took both suitcases and followed her downstairs. The whole family was busy. Carlise walked around at the porch in his phone, Alice was still in her room with Jasper, Bella on the phone with her mom and Edward following Nessie around. Esme was the only one calm and still, sitting in the sofa thinking.
"Where is everyone going?" I asked looking around the room.
"Carlise have to hurry to Baltimora, apparently it's been a plane crash and they need Carlisle and his brain there" Rose explained. "Esme is coming with him to see a crystal vase that was made when she was born and she wants to buy it. Bella has to go to her mom because she is really ill and Edward is coming with her, Nessie can't go with them because she's half human and can get the disease that Renée and Phil has" I looked at Bella; she looked upset and scared to death.
"And you and Alice are going to Paris, that means.. Me and Jasper have to.." I didn't finish the sentence. "Are you guys sure.. Me and Jasper watching a little girl?" Edward looked just as scared as Bella. Maby the thought of me, Nessie and Jasper alone in the house with Jacob coming regularly. "You can't be serious?" Rose nodded and smiled at me. At least someone had faith in us.
Edward? You can't be serious? Us watching Nessie? Alone?
This actually made Edward loose even more color from his face, he looked even paler.
"Emmett, she is soon four years, I know, but she looks 13 and acts like it.. So you're only concern is watching her not to hurt herself" he told me, trying to look calm. When Alice and Jasper came down to the living room I could feel a wave of calm hitting me. It felt nice, and for a moment I actually thought that if would be fine. Watching Renesmee.
"Good, you're all here" Carlise said when he came inside again. "I guess you've heard Emmett? Jasper?" We nodded, both of us. "Esme and I are going to Baltimore right away staying there for a couple of days uncertain of how many people it's there" He looked at Alice and Rosalie. "Your're going to Paris, now?"
"Yes, I've called the airlines and we're taking the noon plane from Seattle" Alice told Carlisle that nodded and moved his eyes to Edward, Bella and Nessie that stood there holding each others hands.
"We're leaving in an hour, apparently Renée is getting worst" Edward told Carlisle. "I will pack the Volvo now" He said and ran out the door to his and Bella's house in the wood.
"I guess you can watch Nessie for the following days" Carlisle said. "You will be alright? You can call all of us anytime. Alice will keep her head dialed in on Renesmee, so she will tell if she see something bad or nothing at all" He said, referring to the werewolf Jacob that is Renesmee's future husband.
After the so called 'family meeting' Rosalie and Alice decided to go. They didn't want to miss their plane.
I said goodbye to Rosalie and wished her a nice trip to Paris. Alice was as always super excited to go to a fashion show. After the girls had pulled out of the garage with Alice's yellow porche I went inside again. I went to talk to Nessie, she sat at the dining table alone while Edward packed the car and Bella was on the phone. Carlisle came flying in followed by Esme.
"Bye, Emmett! Take care of Renesmee and the house" Esme said and kissed Nessie's forehead. "Love you, sweetheart"
"Love you to, Grandma" she said and took a bite of her chocolate before she hugged Carlisle goodbye. They ran out of the door to get to the car.
"So... Nessie" I said and sat down across her on the table. "What do you want to do for the next days?" I asked, hoping to get a good answer. My ideas were probably a little crazy.
"I want to rent a dvd and look at it till mom and dad get back" she told me and took another bite at her chocolate. "Why are they going anyway?"
"They have to go because your other grandma is sick" I told Nessie, she looked scared. "It's nothing serious, -they think, but your grandma and Phil needs someone to take care of them" I said to Nessie, trying to make her feel better. What was I thinking? She looked more upset now then before I sat down. "Jasper!?" I yelled. It was completely unnecessary since we were vampires and heard much better then humans. "Come here for a.." I didn't really need to finish, he was already there.
"What's up Emmett?" He asked, a little worried. I just pointed at Renesmee, that sat completely still in her chair. "What's wrong Nessie?" Jasper asked her and sat down.
"I miss Jacob, my mom and dad are leaving, my stomach hurt and my grandma and Phil are sick" she said as fast as she could before the tears came. She sat there gasping for air for a few seconds before Edward and Bella came running in the door.
"What's wrong?" Bella asked shocked and hugged her daughter. "Honey..?"
"I.. I.. Mom" she managed to say before she continued to cry.
"Bella" Jasper whispered while his eyes were closed. "She's an emotional wreck" he said and took a deep breathe. That couldn't possibly help while Nessie were around. Breathing in her sent couldn't help at all. "I need to go out for a second.. Say hello to Renée and Phil from me" he said before he ran out in the woods.
"Renesmee" Edward whispered. "What's this all about?" Nessie didn't answer. "sweetheart?
"I need to call Jacob" Renesmee said and dried her tears with her sleeve. "Bye mom, bye dad" she said and hugged each of them. "Love you" Then she ran upstairs. Really fast while dialing Jacob's number.
"That was.." Edward said.
"Weird" I finished and looked at Bella who looked thoughtful. Then she smiled.
"Bella? What is it?" Edward asked, curious. "Tell me? What's going on?" It was obvious that it still bothered Edward that he only could read Bella's mind when she wanted to.
"I think I know what's going on.." she murmured thoughtful. "I need to call Carlisle" Then she ran. Neither Edward or I said anything. We just listened to the conversation between Jacob and Renesmee.
"Emmett?" Bella came in the kitchen door suddenly and still. "I need you to do me a favor" I nodded.
"What is it?"
"You need to go to the grocery store and buy woman supplies" The favor shocked me more then necessary. I knew that this meant Nessie were becoming a woman. I've read some of Edward and Carlisle's medical books, and knew what that meant. The four years old girl was having her first period.
"Oh.. sure" I said and smiled. "But Bella.. Sure you want to go? You know.. missing this?"
"I have to" she said and looked at me. "But you or Jasper have to call me as fast as you sense something.. strange" Then she turned to Edward. He was shocked, still.
"My little girl is growing up" he whispered. "Fast" Bella nodded and embraced him and kissed him shortly.
"Shall we tell Renesmee that we're leaving and start driving?" Edward pulled it together and they ran upstairs hand in hand.
"Nessie is having her period, huh?" Jasper asked when he came through the door. I nodded.
"Yes, she is"
