Jacob's POV
"But Bella!" I groaned in anticipation of Renesmee coming out of her room. She was finally turning 7 and I was hoping her feelings would change for me.
"You can wait a little longer, Jacob Black. It won't kill you." She laughed at my exasperated half-smile.
"Sure, sure." I sighed and sat down on the couch and watched a bit of football with Emmett. "Who's playing?"
"Well, Mr. Pedophile," he chuckled, "if you must know, it's the Packers vs. the Cowboys."
"Shut the hell up!" I smacked him hard, knowing it wouldn't hurt even a bit. "I'm not a pedophile. She's practically twenty with her brains and looks!"
"Yes, dog," Alice's little voice came chiming into our conversation, "but she is seven today."
"Whatever, shorty." I rolled my eyes and went into the kitchen. "Esme?"
"Yes, sweety?" Esme was always so kind to me, and it made me feel like I finally had a mother.
"Can I have something to eat?" Even as I said the words I saw a huge plate of bacon and pancakes waiting for me on the counter. "Never mind. Esme you are amazing!" I kissed her on the cheek and she smiled wholeheartedly at me.
"You're very much welcome Jacob. And you know that I'll always be here for you." She patted me on the back and left me to devour my food alone.
"Jacob." Edward's scent hit my nose as soon as he hit the doorway but I didn't say a word.
"Edward." We were still sort of stern with each other, but at times we would crack up like normal guys. Unfortunately, we weren't normal.
"I need to speak with you alone, when you're finished." And he left without another word.
"Stupid stalker." I growled but then forgot about it as I dug into Esme's home-cooking.
As I finished eating, however, I walked outside to meet the freak that Bella loved. He was a good guy, so I can't give him shit for not being good to her. He loved her as much as I loved Renesmee. She was the light of his world.
"Thank you for coming to talk to me," his smile was a little crooked but he really looked worried. We had male time together just talking sometimes, it helped us get along.
"Yeah, whatever." I sat down on the ground next to him and licked the last of the syrup off my chin. "What is it, vampy?"
He chuckled, "I just wanted to speak with you about my daughter. I know she's now the age that we agreed you could act…mature…with her—"
"Edward!" I turned beat red, "I don't think of her that way! You know that! I can't think of her that way until she thinks of me that way!" Stupid vampire doesn't know a damn thing. I wouldn't expect him to, but still.
"But you will start to Jacob. Last night she talked with Alice." Edward looked like he was about to throw up at that and I laughed. "Shut up. But she told Alice she had feelings for you and all this gushy stuff that I can't believe my 7 year old daughter would say about…about….you!"
"Edward," Bella's voice was still lovely to me, "Renesmee is entitled to her own opinion about Jacob. Deal with it, sweetheart." She came and ran her fingers through his hair as she spoke, trying to get him to understand. Her hand lingered on his face. No doubt she was showing him her mind.
"I see." Edward looked towards me, "Jacob, I might as well give you my blessing before you decide to propose to her on the spot." Bella smacked him, and I loved it. "Just wait a little while. Make her happy and if you do one thing that hurts her feelings or body I will…"
"Rip your head clean off!" Emmett came barging outside, listening in obviously. In a house full of vampires there wasn't any room for secrets. Especially the Cullen's house. "The little squirt wants to talk to Jacob for a little while."
"Is that alright, Daddyo?" I looked at Edward and he scowled.
"Fine. You have an hour. We have certain people coming to visit soon." I gulped. "Charlie and Sue, and your father are coming to visit with the pack, not the Volturi so calm down!" I didn't realized I was shaking, so his calm down comment made me mad until I did.
"Thanks, Dad!" I mocked him and punched Emmett on my way to the house. Even though the house had too strong a vampire stench, Renesmee had that human scent, mixed with a sweet honey that I just couldn't put away. Even if I was surrounded by a million vampires, her smell would be the first to register. This imprint thing had its upside too because it smelled down-right sexy! But I couldn't tell anyone about that. I stepped into her room and her face lit up. Damn, I loved this girl. I just wish I could show her how much.
"Jake!" She still had the little kid in her sometimes and when she saw me, it came out even more in her girly giggles. She pecked me on the cheek and showed me what she'd been doing by putting her hand on my neck. I smiled, knowing her thoughts were mostly about me now. "I want to talk, okay?"
"Okay Princess." I followed her to sit in the middle of her bedroom floor, like we always did. "I should get you some beanbag chairs. Would you like that?" I watched as she nodded, her movements reminded me of the water down at First Beach.
"So, Jacob Black," she said looking like she was about to interview me for a huge TV special. She giggled and looked at me. "Can I ask you a question?"
"Of course you can, honey." I smiled at her and made myself look skeptical.
"Do you love me?" That shocked the shit out of me. Where did this come from?
"Of…course I do, Nessie, I've alwa—"
"Okay, how do you love me?" My forehead crumpled in complete shock. "Do you love me like a daughter, niece, family member? Or do you love me like I was your girlfriend?" Her face got pink at that last one and I could tell her feelings were changing for me.
"Renesmee, I don't think you understand this thing that's keeping us together," I spoke softly, watching her as she curled her arms around her knees.
"Explain it, Jake." She ordered.
"I have to be whatever you want me to be, but someday I want the chance to be for you what you are for me. I want to be that light for you. The one who you look to as someone you can always run to. I want you to love me like that." I gulped, hoping no one in this damn house listened to that.
"But Jake I do love you." She looked me straight in the eyes and said it again, "I love you."
"Nessie…" I breathed, shocked as shit. I had to talk before I did something stupid. She looked like she wanted me to jump her but I couldn't do it. She was still innocent, as Edward always said. I do want my balls intact while I'm alive.
She moved closer to me and sat with her legs crossed. She grabbed me by the face and held her palm to my cheek, showing me that she was going to kiss me. This would be great, but I didn't know if that was all she wanted. That's all I wanted right now was to kiss her.
"Jake…" she leaned forward and kissed me full on the lips. My head spun around in circles and before I knew it she was cradled in my lap and we were just kissing. I don't know where she learned how to kiss like this, but it was the best experience I've ever had. I could kiss her for hours, but unfortunately, we were still in the bloodsuckers house.
"Renesmee Carlie Cullen, I love you." I gave her a quick peck on the lips again. "I've always loved you." She pecked my lips this time. "I was made to love you." I breathed.
I just held her like that for a while and we sat and talked about what we would do now. She asked if we could take a trip down to the reservation and spread the news of us being together, but I told her everyone was coming here for her big bash. That made her remember to get ready. She pushed me out the door but not before she kissed me full on the mouth again.
