Ok, in case there is any confusion, this was loz191's story, but Flik gave it to me because she didn't know what to do with it. The story is still the same, but I changed the chapters to suit more what I write. Please, your feedback is essential. Thank you. And Flik knows what is going on as she is like, my best friend. So, she Ok'ed all of this.

Bella's POV

I rested my head on the couch, a habit left over from my days as a human. The soothing sounds of the lullaby that my husband, Edward Cullen, had written for me, drifted softly around the room. The notes melted into one another, and Edward played a song I hadn't heard before. I opened my eyes and looked over at him. He watched Nessie, our daughter, and I intently. He saw me looking and smiled his crooked smile, that one that I loved so much. His butterscotch eyes glittered warmly and he answered my unspoken question. "Renesmee's song." Nessie looked at me, an excited smile on her face. I hugged her warm body gently and opened my arms. Nessie walked over and sat next to Edward. He showed her how to move her hands across the piano, and how to coax the notes into music. I heard feathery footsteps coming down the stairs and Alice danced into the room. "Guess what," she sang as she came to stand beside me.

"What?" I asked, somewhat cautiously. I had learnt to be wary of what Alice said, in case it was a shopping trip or something. Edward shook his head sadly.

"You shouldn't spring surprises like that on Bella. You know how she hates them."

"Well, it has already been booked. But, there will be other people there. They shouldn't be a problem, but Carlisle said I should talk to you about seeing if you can check them when we get there."

Edward sighed. "Why did you even ask? You know the answer."

Alice opened her mouth to reply, but I beat her to it. "You might be able to read minds, Edward, but the rest of us can't," I reminded him gently. Edward walked over and gently touched my cheek. "We're going on a holiday." Alice seemed so excited.

Now it was my turn to sigh. "Where are we going?"

"Maine. There is a small estate turned resort."

"And you mentioned another family. Who?"

"I don't know, I can't see. Renesmee is blocking my view." Alice stopped looking so excited for a minute, and then regained her usual cheer. "So I asked Edward to check them out." She looked at me. I guess my face didn't show the feeling she wanted, because she pouted. "Please, Bella. It will be fun." Fun wasn't the word I would use to describe vacations. Renesmee looked at me imploringly. I sighed again. "Fine, we can go."

I hope you enjoyed the chapter. Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Twilight characters or Vampire Academy characters.
