sorry it took so long
part 6
The little girl vampire (the child?) came up to me confidently. She reached toward me and touched my face. My arms flailed wildly as I tried to run My fingers brushed something cold. Then she was telling me without speaking that her name was Renesmee Carlie Cullen but most people just called her Nessie. She wasn't dangerous. She usually didn't show humans what she could do but everyone seemed to act like themselves around me. Was I a wolf person? Or a shield like her mama? Was her uncle Jasper alright? When she lowered her hand I told her softly that I didn't know, answering all three questions at once. Everyone was staring at me like I'd grown horns.
I threw my hands up in front of me before I realized that I didn't have a good reason to. The one who could taste emotions threw a small pillow at me very gently. He stared at his tiny mate "She saw that coming." The pillow? I hadn't seen it. But I supposed I did know to protect my face.
The leader's mate spoke suddenly in an apologetic voice "We are speculating and staring and keeping you from food. Here. Eat." Her voice was gentle as she pulled a chair out from the table. "Thank you Esme" I muttered, embarrassed. The room went silent. Should I have said Mrs. Cullen or Ma'am? The mind reader broke the pause "I'm almost positive that she heard Carlisle thinking Esme's name. Did you?" he asked me. I realized I hadn't heard Esme's name "I... I don't know how I knew" I admitted. The tiny one spoke with absolute certainty. "If Bella leaves the room Edward will be able to hear Juliet's thoughts clearly."
