(A/N: I have no idea where this idea came from. It just about killed me to write it, but I managed to put some blackwater in the end! Also, I think I may have gotten something about Nessie wrong. Not her actual character, but things like if half vampires would have bad dreams or something. I don't know. Enjoy!)

Dishonest

Nessie wakes up breathing heavily, her heart pounding harder than usual. Jacob is there before she even has a chance to scream for him.

Nessie's eyes brim over with tears when she sees Jacob. "They…they were chasing me," she gasps out.

Jacob wraps her in a hug. "Who was chasing you?" he asks, wiping tears off her face.

"Th-the Volturi," Nessie answers through sobs, her hands tightening on Jacob's arm.

Through Nessie's memory, Jacob sees Nessie running down a long, dark, hallway and a tall, looming figure in a black cloak running after her.

"Ness, it was just a dream," Jacob promises. "The Volturi love you. Everyone loves you."

"Leah Clearwater doesn't love me," Nessie says.

"Leah doesn't love anyone," Jacob says. "Besides, Leah wouldn't hurt you. She knows I would kill her if she did."

"Leah loves you," Nessie says. "And you love her back."

"N-no she doesn't." The words stumble out of Jake's mouth. "And even if she did, I wouldn't love her back. I have you, remember?"

Nessie never suspects that Jacob is lying.
