(I woke up today and 1K reads on this book, I'm so happy ;) )

「Kristen's POV」

After that whole Charlie problem was situated, we had a nice dinner, fell asleep and woke up to a cloudy morning.
I settle onto the couch and start watching some television to clear my brain.
Renesmee joins me because I was watching a kids show.
Then loud sobs and cried were heard.
"Dakota......" I hear Anna whine.
"Don't cry, it'll be ok." I hear Booboo say.
I walk to where the cry is heard.
In the middle of Anna and Booboo was Dakota, her eyes red and puffy. Her hair flowing like a blond waterfall over her face. She looked terrible.
"What's wrong?" I ask her.
"Today's Elle's birthday. I promised I'd be there. I always am." She says in between sobs.
"It'll be ok."
"But I never broke a promise to her." She sobs even louder.
"Hannah Dakota Fanning." I scold and I slap her square on the cheek.
"You are stronger than that." I say glaring daggers at her.
She whimpers and stares at me with her now midnight eyes.
"You need to hunt." Anna notes looking at Dakota's eyes.
"I don't wanna." She says back.
"Do it, you need to clear your mind." Booboo says.
"Only for you." Dakota says pecking him on the cheek.
"Dakota won't let this down, will she?" Renesmee asks me when I come back.
"Give her time, she'll be fine." I assure her.
We sit in silence until night came. As I said, Dakota was better. She brought it up every now and then but she dropped it after a while. I tucked in Mackenzie.
"Good night."
"Kris?"
"Yeah?"
"Will we ever get home?"
"I just don't know."
I just don't know.
