His Golden Haze Part I

Ancient Mars

Chapter 11: Ancient Mars

Renesmee POV:

I was in the middle of crying tears of laughter at Seth Rogen on Freaks and Geeks and a stupid text message Jake sent me when Mom and Dad approached me with the sternest looks on their faces.

I started to worry because Mom looked like she was about to cry and Dad's eyes were dark. I paused my show to face them and Mom sat beside me and ran her small fingers through my hair.

"Honey, there's something we have to tell you." Mom started, "And it's up to you to decide on how you deal with this.

I gulped and looked up at my parents, "Okay, shoot."

"We payed a visit to your Aunt Alice today, your mother and I were curious about what would come out of your relationship with Jacob." Dad sat in front of me, "Do you want to hear the good news or the bad news?"

"Rip the band-aid off." I brought my knees to my chest.

"Alice had a vision of this house burning down in flames, we don't know who died in it." Dad held one of my hands, "But I'm sure the Volturi had something to do with that."

"The Volturi? What could they possibly want to do that for?" I asked with a hint of worry in my voice, "This doesn't have anything to do with me being with Jacob right?"

Dad paused and looked down, "I guess I should tell you the good news.."

Mom bit her lip and gave me a small smile, "You and Jacob will get married, and Alice says that you'll be able to have children."

Will it be like Mom's? I don't want the house to be tense like that ever again. At the same time, it eased me to know that I could bear children. This is the perfect news to tell Jacob.

"No, it won't be like your mother's." Dad answered, "But if you and Jacob end up having a child, that may get the Volturi riled up again."

"So what do we do?" I pinched the bridge of my nose, "I can't live in constant fear of them, none of us can."

"We keep it a secret." Mom told me, "You can let Jacob know but when that time comes we can't let you be seen."

"We also have to keep your relationship with Jacob a secret until this all blows over." Dad firmly stated.

This was a lot to take in. I knew there would be complications that would come with being with Jacob but I love him. I will do whatever it takes to make sure our future together is as safe as possible.

"I need to tell Jacob this." I spoke quietly before standing up.

"Honey, we'll do whatever it takes to make your load less heavy." Mom comforted me, "There are hardships in life, I guess this will be yours."
