RENESMEE'S POV
Everybody was talking about him. My friends. Even my mom seemed to flutter of excitement when they said his name out loud. Stupid man of a brat. Sorry, even I cuss, even though my mom forbid me too, I bet she's the only one in this house that believes in God for Christ sake. Yes, only Jesus. I decided to hate on men. Especially when their last names begin with a B. A couple of months ago Mr. Berger asked me to marry him after we had a few weeks planned with dates and walking trough the park-attractions. I almost committed to him before he nearly undressed my by himself and covered my neck with saliva. Elena continued to pull the strings of my yellow dress more tighter on my back for me.
I gasp.
"Sorry, Mrs. Cullen but you're mother told me to combine the strings around each other more tighter. We don't want that accident to happen again, my lady" Elena said with her French accent. I hate men with British accents. Elena is quite adorable and very helpful, that's why I chose her to be my maid.
And she was totally right. Last week we went to visit an old friend of my dads as I was wearing my new dress.
Inhale deeply Renesmée. I blushed as I looked down when the scene keeps repeating in my heart shaped head. They immediately pushed my second maid on the streets because she didn't combine the strings on my back very well which made my dress fall down when I stood up from my seat.
I hope daddy's friend, who's name is Carter by the way, didn't mind when it exposed my half see trough gown underneath my stuffy dress. He already has a wife. Pervert. He was double my age.
Later Elena braided my bronze hair and let it flow over my left shoulder and not even ten minutes later we went downstairs where my parents were waiting. We were planning on going to the market today, I insisted. There were some beautiful things out there. Almost every weekend.
"Oh sweetie, you look lovely like always" Mom insisted.
Dad almost stopped her with his crooked smile. "Bella, I don't think -"
I shook my head. "Mom, by now I should already know, but I don't. If you think I'm pretty, fine by me, just don't tell me the same thing every time you see me, thank you" I stared at her shocked face for a moment. "By the way I look like crap, It's not even noon" I hope I didn't offend Elena with that one. I gave her an innocent smile joyfully and walked pass her and dad where our butler, Joe, opened the door for us.
I talked to mom like this before, but she was way too mother-ish and I'm sure she understands and won't be upset. My dad didn't complain this time. I'm a full-grown woman now and soon will find a man who I will get married with and that will love me for eternity. I thanked the butler and he went out looking for a horse carriage.
I was just hoping we wouldn't see Mr. Black, the newcomer in town, even though I don't exactly know what he looks like.
Joe jumped out of the carriage first to open the door for us. I see that it was pretty busy downtown this time of the year. Always permanently.
Elena came with me, of course I insisted again so my parents wouldn't mind. I want to buy her something new, make her go out. I can't let her left alone in our huge villa with only trees and flowers around us. My mom chose the house, so we can always wander around the forest, which makes it so scary when it's dark at night. That's a reason why I always come home before 8 o'clock. And of course my dad is still worried about me like I'm still twelve. Which I, too, always was he says. I hate it.
I smiled as I felt the sun shine on my face. Soon winter would come back again. It's a cruel season. Blame 'God' for that.
I took Elena's hand and led her trough the crowd. I don't do this a lot, but I really like Elena and she's one of the few friends I've got. Most of them can never be trusted.
Me and my parents went separate ways. Mom always went searching for diamonds and dad always had so follow her and sigh. I wonder if I would be like that someday. They seem happy, so yeah..
Some people that walked by nodded at me, but I only remembered a few of those faces. I just smiled back politely. Elena did the same.
"Haven't seen anything interesting yet?"
Elena looked at me questioningly and shrugged. I send her a playful accusing look before I went to a random table that seemed clean, and not too expensive. The table carried a bunch of scarves and the lady behind it on a chair said she made them herself. I was quite impressed and gave her a bright smile.
"Umm, I'm just looking for something new for my friend here.. Like a scarf!" I picked up one which I liked and smiled at the woman. She just cocked up her eyebrow. I rate 40 years old.
"Knock yourself out then"
I guess she didn't know me. I was royalty. I wish. Wel, at least we were close to the people who owned this town. That made the Cullens well-known. "I will" I answered hesitatingly. People can be so rude sometimes.
I barely noticed Elena taking the scarf out of my hand as I send the woman a daring look. I caught her gaze.
Inhale deeply Renesmée. "How much for this scarf?"
"10 euros" she answered careless.
"Say whàt?"
"You heard me"
I laughed. "Seriously m'am, this one's probably worth 3 euros!"
"I made them so they probably are more worth"
"Eww, no. Now I definitely do not want them anymore. Elena, put that down!" I commanded her, but I saw the pleading look right in her eyes and sighed. I whined actually.
"Jake, this little girl is threatening me. Do something!" Old sales lady say what?
"Do not call me that! I am very mature for my age thank you very much" I said raising my voice, not even looking at the guy she gazed, not me. I looked down at the table, planning just to jump over it and give her a kick in the guts. If I have to I'll take down the guy's nuts too. Oh Renesmée don't make a fool out of yourself. Daddy will kill you, I said to myself, almost mentally kicking myself.
The guy, a big one actually, took her hand and pulled her out of the chair.
"I'll handle this, Sue" He said politely with a smile on his face. Like he could smile at that stupid scene. When 'Sue' was out of sight the good looking guy turned to face me and stood there a little uncomfortable leaning on the table with his hand.
He smirked at me. Breathtaking. "You really shouldn't threat those kind of lady's you know"
"If you can call that a lady" I shot a glance in the direction she went to.
"So why exactly?"
"Can I just take this scarf and give you 3 euros?"
He frowned teasingly. "I think she said 10"
I whined again and looked at Elena apologizing. "I'm sorry. If my dad finds out I spend that much money on my maid we're both dead" She nodded understandingly.
"It's okay.. But you can buy me one for Christmas!" We both giggled.
"Wel err.." I heard the handsome man murmur. I smiled at him automatically. "Yes?" "How about five euros?"
"Aww, thanks, but I already said only 3 euros"
"Four"
"Three"
He bit his lip as he looked at me. "Fine"
Elena and I shrieked as I gave him the money but didn't let go. The handsome man looked at me and couldn't help but smile. I let the money go with a grunt and she immediately placed the scarf around her neck.
"Thank you so much, sir!" Elena smiled brightly. He shrugged and I rolled my eyes at her.
"I'm Renesmée Cullen" I extended my hand towards him and he took it in his big hand. His russet skin was so soft… I began kicking myself mentally again. But then he did the most magical thing. He brought my pale hand, which looked even more pale next to his and lifted it up to his lips. He pushed his soft lips on my hand and I almost shuddered.
"I already thought so, I already heard so much about you. Jacob Black" He winked and I gasped. Jacob B.. So this is our famous guy.
"Wait, what do you mean you heard so much about me?" I asked way too curiously.
"I guess you'll have to figure that out then" Jacob B winked at me before he took a seat in Sue's chair. I also noticed he almost was fully dressed in black.
I shook my head and turned to Elena and took her hand. Before I turned around and gave him a brief smile and he was grinning at me. I didn't ask anymore questions, I just wanted to get out of here. I've heard so much of what those kind of men do. I have to admit he's handsome. Manly handsome. So muscular… I bet he was on steroids. I've seen better.. Oh who am I kidding.
"I hope I'll see you again soon, Ms. Cullen!" I heard him shouting as I got in between the crowd. I turned around but he was already out of sight.
Before we went back home again Elena and myself spend another hour looking for some jewelry instead. The sun was still shining, lucky for us, as we got home. When we had dinner later it was completely silent as always. I think my head went red when I thought back of Mr. B from in the afternoon. Mom brought us all out of our thoughts which surprised me and made my heart go pounding as I forgot the thought of my subject of the day.
"So..." She began hesitatingly. I cocked an eyebrow up and dad looked at her in anticipation. He wasn't used to someone talking during dinner.
"Yes my love?" He took her hand. This better be good.
"So too bad we didn't see Jacob Black at the market right?" Mom started talking like she held her breath for the last few minutes. Dad chuckled but looked confused too.
"Oh yes he was!" Good job Renesmée, by tomorrow you'll mentally have bruises all over your body.
Everybody, my parents, our maids and butler, looked at me. Mom was the only one who seemed interested. Elena who still had her scarf on smiled carefully.
It was quiet for a moment and you could only hear me taking a deep breath…
I know it doesn't seem to bad, but soon I hope I won't get spanked by mommy again. Stupid scarf.
The next day went by slowly. I just spend in at home in the library. More slowly than I wanted. But the next day at the cafeteria went by way too fast. Aunt Alice send her butler to our house to tell me she wanted to meet me at the cafeteria down town. I immediately made Elena to put my yellow dress on again and made my way to Alice. I immediately noticed her and her flowery hat. She had Jasper with her too. He was just in a suite like usual.
Alice smiled and shrieked when she saw me and stood up to hug me as I hugged back.
"Aww, I definitely missed you!" I rolled my eyes at her and we both took a seat next to each other. Jasper was busy reading a newspaper with a cup of coffee in his hand.
We were silent again so I looked at her in anticipation. She came back out of her thought excitingly, making me blink more than usual.
"So did you see the new guy in town this weekend?"
I just cocked my eyebrow up. She was still waiting for my answer, like she asked it only a second ago.
I sighed. "Alice. Did you just made me come out here, which is more than half an hour away from my house, just because you wanted to talk about the 'new guy'? And the guy has a name you too know"
"Yes yes, Jacob Black, very handsome" Alice got interrupted by Jasper's throat getting cleared. Alice apologized and gave him a kiss on the side on his lips, he looked happier then. I tried not to laugh. Poor Jasper. He looked at me with an amusing smile and returned to his newspaper. Alice continued.
"I just met him Saturday and when I said my last name, instead of Jasper's, he looked surprised and asked if I knew you. I said you we're my niece, and he looked very happy so I offered him a date with you and-"
"Aunt Alice say whàt? What did you do now? You set me up with him? That is totally unbelievable!" I looked at her in disbelieve and sat back in my chair as I scowled at her.
"You don't have to yell my name at me you know, it gives us a bad reputation.." I heard her say in the background.
The door of the cafeteria opened when I did and I had to look away from Alice, so I looked at the door and my eyes widened. I gasp as I see that gorgeous smile on that persons lips.
Yes, Alice in unbelievable in a negative way, but a miracle in a positive way at the same time.
