"Renesmee!"
Renesmee Cullen continued to ignore the calls from Jacob Black. She flipped the pages to her newest Jane Austen novel and sighed in annoyance as she heard Jacob thunder up the stairs.
Jacob Black glared at Renesmee, growling when she continued to ignore him, "Ness, we have to go."
"I don't feel like going."
"What?" Jacob groaned, "Oh come on, Renesmee. This is Emmett, Rosalie, and Jasper's graduation. We have to go."
Renesmee stood up quickly, frowning at him, "We have gone to how many of their graduations? Too many. I don't want to go!"
"I'll drag you there, if I have to. I don't need Bella chastising me later for letting you skip out!"
She laughed at him, "You're going to make me, are you? Why don't you go ahead and try."
"I don't need this, Renesmee!" Jacob snapped, "It seems like we fight more than anything now a days. I can't figure out what to do to make you happy!"
"And what if you can't, Jacob?"
He stared at her, annoyed, "What are you talking about? I've been changing your diapers since before you were born. Of course I know what to do to make you happy."
"That's just it, Jacob. I never had the chance to figure my life out. I never had another option, besides you. I never had a crush, a wild and passionate affair… and now…I don't know. You at least, had my Mom to crush on. Sometimes I wonder if I'm just a rebound thing. You couldn't get Bella to yourself, like you wanted. But you get the best next thing."
Jacob stared at her, his 17 year old face frozen in shock. "Renesmee, it was never like that. I fell in love with you the moment I laid eyes on you."
Renesmee looked up at him, her eyes a turmoil, "So tell me Jacob. Have you ever thought when you've been with me: that's not how your Mom used to do it."
"You're ridiculous, Nessie." Jacob spat, "If you can't see how much I love you, then maybe you're right: you're not ready for this."
"I never said that!"
"It sure as hell sounded like it."
Renesmee watched as he bolted from the room and slammed his way out of their home. Feeling emotionally week for the first time in a long time, she let out a slow breath and sank back into her chair.
Edward glanced at his watch and growled, annoyance creeping into his voice, "we're going to be late. We're going to have to suffer Rosalie's wrath. I might just kill Jacob."
Bella Cullen sighed as she watched her husband pace back and forth, "Edward if it bothers you so much, why don't we go get them?"
"Because I don't want to walk in on them doing… Well you know." He grinned at Bella as her eyes went wide and she looked down, embarrassed by what he had implied, "At any case, maybe we should get them."
"You go," she laughed, "I really rather see my daughter do that with my best friend."
"I thought I was your best friend," Edward smiled at her, bringing her close and kissing the tip of her nose.
"You are. You are my best-est best friend," she breathed, "He's only has one best." Bella looked down at his open hand and rolled her eyes, "You're going to make me go with you?"
"Only because I love you and every second that I'm away from you makes my heart ache." Edward's heart swelled as Bella grabbed his hand and smiled up at him. He was a married man now. A married man with a grown daughter and her husband. Who would have thought that he would ever be this happy? Not himself, that was for sure. He had at one point in his life accepted the fact that he was probably going to be alone for all of eternity.
"Edward, do you see that?"
His eyes snapped up, scanning the area for any danger. He found nothing but noticed the shape on the ground, "A human?"
Bella gasped as they approached it, "Edward, we need to call Carlisle!"
"Jacob." Edward fell to his knees, and began to pump life into his best friend.
