Renesmee POV
Okay so turning 17 tomorrow still feels kinda weird, but I'm so glad that I am finally looking almost like my age, I'm not growing super fast any more and the best part is that mom and dad are finally going to let me go to High School! I seriously can't wait. Being home schooled for the past years have been awesome, no doubt about that, everyone taught me what they knew best. But I just feel like I want to have a bit of normalcy in my life, what with vampire coven for a family and a werewolf best friend, I need more…let's say, exposure.
We're still living at Forks, Washington, people finally accepted that the Cullen family are always going to be beautiful no matter how old they get, so no one really asked questions or felt weird that mom and dad and everyone else didn't age (well physically at least) I guess since I'm growing, it's all the proof they need that we're just another normal family that just happen to look amazingly young and beautiful all the time. But we all know that sooner or later we had to move, but they all promised me that I would graduate from Forks High School same way that mom and dad did.
SO I'm starting my senior year, but the school year already started and I am soo nervous of showing up in school tomorrow as the new student. Everyone knows about me and has seen me here and there but no one really got to know me. But it's not like I have no friends. I have Jacob Black, my constant companion and the whole pack down at La Push.
Okay, I'm going to stop thinking about all this, the more I think about it the more anxious and nervous I get.
I finally got out of bed and put on a pair of skinny, dark jeans and a plain white t-shirt and went down stairs.
"You're finally up! It's about time. Why did you have to be the one that needed sleep in this house? It's so boring when you're asleep!" Alice walked me into the living room where everyone has sitting around doing whatever they do when I'm not around.
"Good morning sweetie. Are you all rested?" Dad got up from his place in front of his piano and kissed me on the forehead. Mom came up to me and kissed me too, "Do you want breakfast. I can whip something up for you?"
"Thanks mom, but I'm not so hungry right now, maybe later."
I went and sat down on the piano and started playing the first thing that came to mind, a melody my dad used to play for me when I was younger, I didn't even have to concentrate to play it, I knew it so well. Dad sat next to me and mom went into the kitchen. Everyone stopped what they were doing and listened to my playing, everything loved it when my daddy and I played music.
"So kiddo, you ready for school tomorrow?" Emmett was the first to talk when I stopped playing.
I looked up at him with a nervous smile, "Yeah sure," I said uncertain.
"You like you wanna throw up," Emmett laughed, "something wrong? Feeling a little nervous maybe?" he kept laughing.
Rosalie hit him on the head, "Way to be mature Emmett, and leave the girl alone." She turned to me and winked, "so Nessie, what you planning on doing today?"
"Oh OH! Back off Rose!" Alice jumped out of Jaspers lap and put her arm around my shoulders, "We have to go shopping! She's going to school tomorrow and she has to buy new clothes!"
This is going to be painful, "Aunt Alice, do you mind if I don't come this time. We already went shopping for 'school' 5 times already and besides you have better taste then I do."
"Are you sure, it might be fun," she looked at me with pouted lips and big puppy eyes, the whole works.
But I looked away, "Yeah I'm sure. I just wanna hung out here today, and maybe go out somewhere and hang out with Jake or something. I need to relax."
"We understand sweetie," my dad kissed the top of my head; "you don't have to do anything you don't want to, especially if it's shopping." He looked up at Alice, "Back off Alice and leave my daughter alone."
Alice stuck her tongue out at him and said, "I guess she gets that from her mom."
Now that that's settled, I felt a bit more relaxed, knowing that I have no plans today, that I could go to my room and stay in bed is if I wanted to.
Mom poked her head out of the kitchen door, "Renesmee, sweetie, I know you said you weren't hungry but I made some pancakes," she smiled at me, "and of course fresh blood," she added after looking at my disappointed expression and the thought of fresh blood just brightened my day.
"Thanks mom, I started to feel kinda hungry anyway," I walked past her and into the kitchen, "what kinda blood is it?"
"Dear's blood sweetie. Now sit down and eat."
That afternoon Jake came over and we hung out in room and he was just as nervous about me going to school as I was.
"Look, how many times do I have to tell you that I'm going to be fine? It's only high school, mom went through it, and dad went through it, multiple times. Everyone goes through high school and so did you!"
"I'm just saying," he raised his hands like he was surrendering to the police or something; "you just have to be very careful around the people in school. It's going to be a little hard to keep your strength on check. And you must always remember not to 'talk' to people by touching them. You have to be careful, and you can't go…."
"…around drinking blood and doing anything out of the ordinary." I turned around from my computer and looked at Jake sitting on my bed, "I know! You've been telling me this for a month now. I think I got the gist of what you're saying."
He looked me straight in the eye and smiled, "I know I might be a worst best friend sometimes, but I'm just worried," he got up off my bed and came and sat down next to me on the floor. We were so close I could feel his heat vibrating off his body and warming mine, "What ya doing anyway? You've been using the computer for hours."
"Just surfing. Nothing special," I closed my laptop and pushed it away, "What you wanna do?"
"Don't know. Claire is back and she's hanging out at Emily's house with the rest of them. Wanna go there? Or we could just go watch a movie or something. Anything really, it's not like I have a schedule planned out or anything." He lay back next to me and stretched out; he put his hands behind his head and closed his eyes.
"You seem tired. What's up? I thought you're life right now is boring, what's keeping out awake?"
His eyes were still closed but he smiled, "Nothing, I'm just relaxing. So decide what you wanna do."
"Let's go down to La Push. I really want to see Claire. It's been like 2 years since she's been down here."
Jake got up and pulled me with him, "Okay, let's go. I know that she's been dying to see you."
