"Vivian, do you wanna pack for yourself or should I?" He asked.

"I don't care," I said, sitting down on the bed.

"Well, do you want big clothes or little clothes?" He asked.

"Probably better take both," I said.

"What's wrong babe?" Jasper asked, stopping his actions to come sit beside me.

"Nothing," I lied.

"Viv, you can talk to me babe. I can tell something's up," he said.

"I just missed you," I said.

"But, I'm here now, right?" He asked, smiling a little in attempt to get me to smile.

"Yeah, you are, but I still missed you, and I'm kind of angry that you ever thought it was okay to leave me," I said. "Why couldn't you just pull me from little space and take me with you?"

"You slip too easily with me around, and I knew you needed to be big and focus on getting ready for the fight. I thought that leaving would be best, Viv. I know now that I was wrong and that you are strong enough to have stayed big around me, but I couldn't risk it with such a life or death situation on our hands," he said. "I never would've forgiven myself if you had slipped and gotten hurt or worse babe. I'm really, really sorry. Think you can forgive me?"

"Of course I can," I said, smiling a little and hugging him.

"I love you Vivvy. So much more than you'll ever know," he said, kissing the top of my head while he returned the hug.

"I love you too Daddy," I said.

We set about packing together and trying to make the next few hours fly by. Luckily, they did. Alice tried stealing me to do my hair and makeup, and fortunately, no one let her because Daddy and I have been separated for so long.

"You two almost ready?" Esme asked, peeling her head in the door of our room.

"Yeah, we are," I said, grabbing my blanket and heading out the door as Jasper grabbed our suitcases.

We all piled into one car so that not all our cars were sitting at the airport. The ride was buzzing with excitement. I have never been to Isle Esme before, but the others had. They kept telling me about how beautiful and amazing and picturesque everything is, and it just made my excitement grow. Jasper kept a tight grip on my hand so he could keep me calm enough that the car didn't burst into flames or anything like that.

Great thing about being a Cullen: private jets, baby. We could hop on the plane and go wherever we wanted, which today is Rio de Janeiro. Within an hour of leaving home, we were on a plane on the way to Rio.

"Wanna play a game?" Alice asked.

"Sure, let's play chess," Jasper said.

"No, a fun game," Alice said.

"Why don't you just tell us who wins," Rose said, sounding entirely fed up with Alice. But, Alice has been bouncing off the walls all day, and we left her self-control in Forks.

"You're no fun," Alice said, sitting down beside me as she pouted some.

"Would you like to braid my hair, Allie-cat?" I asked her.

"It beats boredom," she said. I wiggled out of Jasper grasp and let her braid my hair to help cure her of her boredom for the last little part of our flight.

When we landed, we got off the plane and had to catch two taxis out to the dock, where apparently we also own boats. From the dock, it was a couple hours of low speed sea travel to reach the beautiful island that is Isle Esme.
