A Twilight fanfiction novel - SheeWolf85

Her words caused a wave of peace to wash over him. He kissed her again, slow and soft. “Thank
you.”
She licked her lips and sighed. “What am I going to do about my dad?”
He shrugged. “Let’s at least go assess the damage. We also need to ask him about the test thing.”
Her eyes widened. “Damage? You said I didn’t hurt him.”
“You didn’t hurt him, baby. I just meant figurative damage.”
She relaxed. “Oh. Okay, yeah. Let’s go.”
She stood up and watched him stand beside her. She couldn’t take her eyes off him as he brushed
himself off. He caught her eyes and smirked.
“What?” he asked.
She shrugged. “I don’t know. You’re just nice to look at.”
He took her hand and chuckled as he let her lead the way out the door and down the stairs. She
took a deep breath when she heard the conversation in the living room. They were talking about the
first time she’d visited Alice and Jasper after the injection. The talk stopped when Renesmee and
Jacob came into the room. Bella stood up immediately and went to her daughter.
“Are you okay, honey?” Bella asked.
Renesmee nodded, a little surprised when her mother reached out and touched her arm instead of
running away. “Are you okay, Mom?”
“I’m fine, sweetie.” She tucked a stray lock of hair behind Renesmee’s ear and leaned in for a hug.
“I love you,” she said softly.
“I love you, too. I’m so sorry.”
“Oh, honey. It’ll be okay. You’ll see. I think your dad has something to say, though.” She turned and
looked at Edward pointedly.
Edward swallowed and got up. He took tentative steps toward his daughter. Even after what
happened, he was more wary of Jacob than he was of Renesmee. He took her hand and stalled a
few more seconds. He was never good at this sort of thing. Finally, he looked up at her orange eyes
and shivered.
“I’m sorry I didn’t believe you, Renesmee. Are you okay?”
“Daddy,” she whimpered. She wanted so badly to hug him. “Did I hurt you?” She had to hear it from
him.
“No.” He shook his head and reached out to stroke her hair gently. “I know I hurt you, though. I
never wanted that.”
