haha, i thought he was gonna go buzzurks and freak out, then tell rene, but unfortunately he took it well, like, he just needed to know basics and its all good

So if Charlie didn't know what Bella was why would he have "cautiously" leaned in and hugged her?

Well, i was obvious by her change in looks she was SOMETHING... fear of the unknown tends to make you cautious, but we've actually already stated a few times, we think Charlie knew... just smart enough to keep his mouth closed

Yeah that would make sense. Edward can't exactly read Charlie's mind well so Edward probably wouldn't have known if Charlie knew or not.

When Emmet says "It's about time somebody scored around here" and Bella almost hissed, I wonder how Charlie would have reacted if she did. I think it would be pretty funny.

I wasn't all that surprised by Charlie's reaction.

After all, Bella is a lot like Charlie... or Charlie is a lot like Bella. Bella has never reacted normally to anything that has happened with the Vampires and Werewolves in the world. Maybe she gets that from Charlie, but never knew that she did because when did she have a chance to prove it?

I was just like... huh... they're alike.

So do you think that if she didn't wear contacts that Charlies reaction would be different? Since she would have blood red irises.

I'm going to go with Yes on this one. With all the changes Bella went through, the blood red eyes are a bit .... too much.

If bella had been one of those kids who streaked her hair pink and wore white out contacts and nothing but black, maybe he'd have thought it normal... but... thats not the case! XD

I think if she'd not worn contacts, it might have been TOO much for Charlie.... O_o

What do you think Charlie would have done? Knowing his character.

Knowing his character? I think he may have turned purple and had a heart attack. Or possibly a small break down, where he goes back to his car and sits for a bit till he thinks he can handle it, if and when he recovered, he wouldn't be making much eye contact!
