Okay, so please don't be to hard on me, it's my first FanFiction and I've never done anything like this before. Normally I just read them but I thought it was about time I did something and my friends got tired of me talking about all the stories they ended up begging me to write one so I'll stop talking about them. Soooo..... here it goes!

I do not own the Twilight Saga, Stephenie Meyer does. :)

Setting Sun

Chapter 1 – Realization

I was walking through the woods, hand in hand with my favourite person in the world. As I looked around at my surroundings, I thought about my life, and how lucky I was to be alive, in this world, and to be who I was. Everything around us was green, the moss, the leaves, the grass, just the way I liked it. We were stepping over roots and under branches until we got to an opening in the trees. We stepped through the opening in between the trees into a beautiful meadow. The meadow was like the kind of thing you would see in fairy-tales. It was set in a perfect circle, with grass covering the ground like a soft blanket and buttercups, daisies, snowdrops, bluebells and heather scattered on the ground.

I've been here before, but when? I thought to my self, it seemed so familiar to me, being there. "Jacob, where are we?" I looked up to my best friend, into those beautiful, brown eyes of his that looked almost black. Wait, what? When did I start thinking Jake's eyes are beautiful?

"We're in your parents' meadow, Ness." Looking down on my small form. In that moment I saw something in his eyes, something I'd seen before in his eyes. I realised then what it was; it was the same thing that my parents had in their eyes when they looked at each other. It was the same thing I saw in Aunt Alice and Uncle Jasper's eyes when they looked at each, and when Uncle Emmett and Aunt Rosalie looked at each other and when Grandpa Carlisle and Grandma looked at each other. It was even the exact same look I saw in Sam's eyes when he looked at his Emily.

Jake sat down on the emerald green grass and pulled me down with him. We lay back down and I lay my head on his bare chest. I looked up at the stars and I felt something, I felt a warm glow in my stomach, surrounded by butterflies. Confused by this feeling, I felt the urge to snuggle closer into Jacob's warm body. I looked up to his face and studied his features as his eyes were focused on the stars.

"A beautiful view isn't it?" I whispered to him, while looking back up into the dark sky that was dotted with stars.

"It's okay, but I can think of something more beautiful to look at," He dropped his gaze down to me and my eyes, and gave me his just-for-me Jacob smile. For once I didn't drop my gaze in embarrassment, we just kept on staring into each other's eyes like we were staring into the other's soul.

Then Jacob bent his head down until his face and lips were an inch away from mine. "Ness, I-I... I love you." I felt a smile spread across my face and my heart burst with joy. I was speechless, so I pressed my palm to his cheek and said with my gift; I love you too Jacob. He closed the distance between us by pressing his soft lips to mine, wrapping his arms around me and me putting one hand on the back of his neck and tangling the other in his hair. His tongue traced my bottom lip, begging for entrance. I was just about to open my mouth to take the kiss further when I felt myself being shaken.

"Nessie? Ness? Come on!" It was him. Jacob. I could recognise that voice anywhere. "Wake up, I can already hear Alice coming. Quick! I'm trying to save you here!" My eyes fluttered open to see him leaning over me. Reality caught up with me and I remembered my dream. I suddenly jumped up, scared he might have seen my dream. His facial features changed from excited to worried. "What? What's wrong? Did I hurt you?".

"Um... no of course not Jake, it's nothing." He raised his eyebrows in a questioning manner, "Really Jake, it's nothing. I'm fine."

"Okay, well umm... Happy birthday Ness! God, you've grown up so fast. It seems like it was only yesterday I looked into your beautiful eyes for the first time and look at you know!" He went back to grinning again, "Oh god, I'm rambling aren't I? Oh well, but wait until you see-"

"Jacob Black, one more word and I will cut that furry tail of yours right off!" Jacob's expression turned from cheerful to genuinely frightened, as he knew that Aunt Alice really wasn't joking. One look at his face and I burst out laughing.

"Oh so you think that's funny, do you Ness? That my life is being threatened?" He grabbed me round the waist and started tickling me so I laughed even harder.

"No, no- Jacob, stop!" I yelled, shaking my head and laughing, "Please Jacob, I'll do anything! Please?" He stopped and pretended to think very hard.

"Hmm... Let's see... How about the usual then Ness?" He said, grinning, "So Nessie, who is your Alpha?"

"Jacob is my Alpha," I mumbled, while he cupped his hand around his ear.

"What was that? I didn't quite catch that."

"Jacob Black is my Alpha!" I yelled, "There, happy?"

"Yes, very happy." As I looked up into his triumphant eyes, I felt complete. I realised that what I said in my dream was true, I am in love with Jacob Black.

"Yes, yes. Enough with the games now, I've only got until five to get you ready for your party as you slept in until midday." I almost forgot Aunt Alice was there until she spoke, I decided to do what she asked as there was no way to get round Alice when there was any celebration involved. "Jacob, please leave unless you want to watch Nessie getting changed, which I'm sure would make her uncomfortable." I ducked my head down as the blush spread across my face, but I took a quick peak at Jake to see his cheeks were a shade darker against his russet-coloured skin. He caught my eye and due to his usual cockiness he had to wink. Does he know what he does to me? Does he feel the same way? But what if he doesn't? All these questions ran through my head in a matter of seconds, but no answers came with them. I felt the butterflies enter my stomach when he gave me his special smile that he uses only for me.

"Okay, fine. I'll see you later, Ness. Oh, and Alice? Don't torture her to bad, I still want to give her her present and birthday hug later." And with that Jacob left the room, chuckling at his own joke.

"Right, I expect you to be showered, dressed in this outfit," gesturing to white suit carrier in her right hand, "to have eaten breakfast and be at the main house by one o'clock. Okay?" Before I could say another word, Alice was out the door leaving me dumbfounded. I stood up and walked into my bathroom and turned on the shower. While I waited for the water to heat up, I let my mind wander to Jacob. What if he doesn't feel the same way as I feel about him? Should I tell him? What if he doesn't want to be friends with me anymore because of the way I feel? I couldn't stop the questions jump into my head now that I was alone with no distractions. An irritated groan slipped past my lips, I didn't know what to do. I jumped in the shower and used my favourite orange-scented shampoo and then put in the conditioner. As I let it set in, I closed my eyes and let the water run over my body. But all I saw when I closed my eyes was him. Jacob. It was like his face was tattooed to the inside of my eyelids. All I could see was those gorgeous black eyes that were a window into his perfect soul, his cropped, jet black hair, I couldn't help but imagine me running my fingers through it, and then those luscious, soft lips of his...

And then reality caught back up with me. "Renesmee! Honey? Breakfast is ready," My mother, Bella, was calling up the stairs to me. She, being her usual stubborn self, still wouldn't call me Nessie or Ness, even though everyone that we knew was calling me by those names.

"Coming, Mom! I'll be down in a minute," I said, knowing she would hear it with her vampire super-senses. I washed the conditioner out and shut the water off. I brushed my teeth and towel dried my hair. I went back into my room and got my bra and panties and the white suit-carrier. Once I had my underwear on, I unzipped the bag to the see just a piece of bright purple fabric, I took it off the hanger and held it against my body as I stood in front of my wall length mirror. I gasped, I realised it was supposed to be a dress, and a very short dress at that, with no straps at all. It only came to a few inches bellow my butt, What is Dad gonna say when he sees this? I sighed and pulled it over my head and looked back in the mirror. It actually looked amazing on me, the colour complimented my pale skin perfectly and it showed off all of my newly founded curves in the right places. What was that saying Alice always told me? Oh yeah... Less is always more. I always thought Aunt Alice was genius, but now, now I was lost for words.

I grabbed the black 4-inch ankle boots that Alice left at the bottom of the suit-carrier and ran down the hallway and into the kitchen to see my dad sat on a stool at the island with my mom on his lap. What a surprise? They were making out like there was no tomorrow, and they obviously didn't hear me come in as the were 'distracted'. I cleared my throat and said; "Yeah, I'm sorry to interrupt, but I was hoping I could eat my breakfast without having to witness my parents sucking face." They turned around and their attention to my outfit. My mom's face went from embarrassed to shocked to disapproving, whereas my dad's face went from happy to shocked to furious.

"Renesmee Carlie Cullen! What on earth are you wearing? You are not going anywhere dressed in that!", my father yelled at me. I was used to this, his disapproval at most of the outfits Aunt Alice dressed me in these days. I decided to wait until he was finished with his ranting.

"Dad, I don't see what the big deal is. I am fully matured as of today, so I think that I should be able to wear what I want from now on and I think Aunt Alice and Aunt Rose will agree. And anyway, it's just for today, I'm only going over to the main house for my birthday party. It's not like there's gonna be any pervs at the party, it's just the family and the pack."

"Yeah, well that's what I'm worried about," he mumbled, "Fine, but as long as this is the worst it's going to get, Nessie."

"Okay, Dad. I'll try but I can't make any promises, you know what Alice is like." Before they could say another word, I was out the door with a piece of toast in one hand and my boots in the other. I ran the distance to the main house in half a minute or less. It would've taken less time if I were a full vampire, but obviously I'm not. I am a half-vampire, my parents conceived me when my mother was human. They obviously didn't know it was possible that they could have children, otherwise I wouldn't be here. My mom's pregnancy only lasted about a month or so, the birth nearly killed her, so my dad resorted to finally changing her so he wouldn't lose her. My growth was not normal either, at the age of only four months I looked about five. That was the age the oh-so-famous Volturi came to 'visit', or rather try and get rid of me, which nearly caused all of my family, vampire friends and Jacob and his pack to be killed. Luckily they were too scared of my mothers gift to attempt to attack, as she was able to shield us from their most talented guard. So they had no choice but to leave.

As I stepped through the doorway, Alice was instantly at my side and already started to drag me up the stairs and into her bathroom. She pushed me down onto her chair and started to work on my hair, while she was doing God knows what to me, I closed my eyes and my mind went back to Jacob. I felt content, and I almost forgot where I was until I felt Alice prod my eyelids with what I thought was eyeliner. I got caught up in my fantasies and replays of the dream I had the previous night and before I knew it, she was telling me to open my eyes.

"Nessie, you have got to admit I am a genius," she said as I opened my eyes to look in the mirror, Aunt Alice had straightened my usually long curly locks into a messy, bed-head look, which actually looked really good on me. She put a bit of foundation on my face, but not much because apparently I have perfect skin, she made my eyes all smoky, giving me a seductive look. There was clear lip gloss coating my lips and no blusher on my cheeks because Alice thought my natural blush was much prettier.

"Okay, I can hear that everyone is ready downstairs, but are you ready?" Alice asked me excited but slightly concerned eyes.

"Yeah, I'm ready, let's go," I smiled at her, while slipping why black snakeskin ankle boots. I stood up, smoothed out my dress and stepped out into the hallway.

"When we get to the bottom of the stairs, you wait for about fifteen seconds after I've left you and then come into the back yard, that's where everyone will be."

"Right, got it." We walked hand in hand to the bottom of the stairs and then Aunt Alice kissed my cheek and took off to go outside. So I started counting.

I took a deep breath and made my way to the back porch, I paused as I took another breath and stepped outside to my friends and family...

Yeah, sorry about the cliffhanger, but it was just begging me to do it. I'm starting the second chapter straight away. And please... REVIEW!! :)
