Alice sucked in a quick breath. “Well, what are we doing standing around? Come in and sit down.<br />

Stay a while. I made snacks, but I guess you probably won’t want to eat them?”<br />

Jacob smiled. “I’ll eat them.”<br />

They went to the dining room and sat at the table. Renesmee sat on Jacob’s lap. Alice brought in a<br />

plate of fruit, crackers, cheese, and a dip she’d made.<br />

“So how are things?” Renesmee asked.<br />

Alice sighed. “It’s been very difficult to focus on everything with you gone. Knowing that you’re safe<br />

with Jacob is probably the only thing that’s kept me sane. The flower shop is getting more business,<br />

though. I hired another two people yesterday, so that should help.”<br />

“That’s good to hear. Good luck.”<br />

“Thanks. What about you? How is everything? What’s the biggest change? Apart from your eyes, I<br />

mean.”<br />

Renesmee shrugged. “It’s going, I guess. I’m doing the best I can. Jacob’s been a huge help.”<br />

Jacob smirked and kissed her head. “Everything is so different, though. I kill deer with my bare<br />

hands now.” She held her hands up as if to demonstrate.<br />

Alice and Jasper were silent for a moment, not sure what to say. Renesmee looked at her lap and<br />

put her hands down. Jacob hugged her waist. “She’s a very efficient hunter. Hasn’t missed one.”<br />

He wasn’t going to let her feel ashamed or guilty for doing what she had to do.<br />

Alice licked her lips nervously. “Do you just hunt deer?”<br />

Renesmee shook her head. “No. I’ve taken down a few elk, too.”<br />

Jasper was trying to accept this as reality. “Maybe we could hunt together sometime?” He hadn’t<br />

hunted in what felt like a lifetime, but the idea of having fresh meat had always appealed to him.<br />

“No.” Renesmee immediately shook her head. “I’m sorry, but no. I follow scents, and to be honest,<br />

your blood smells better than any deer could.”<br />

He nodded. “I see. Okay, well, what do you do with the meat?”<br />

She smiled. “Sometimes I eat it, sometimes Jake does. We could give you some, though.”<br />

“That’d be cool. Elk is good.”<br />

They talked more about Renesmee’s new changes and how she was adapting to them.<br />

“Who’s up for a game of cards?” Jasper asked a while later.<br />

“Poker?” Renesmee asked. She hadn’t played in a long time.<br />
