A/N: Hi, I do not own Twilight (S. Meyer), or 7 Things (Miley Cyrus), I am just using their work for this story. The following link is to the 7 Things real lyrics:

Jacob's POV
I watched Renesmee flip through the channels on the television and finally settle on a music video. I smiled at her and watched her mouth the lyrics. She doesn't believe she has a beautiful voice but she does, she really does.
The rest of the Cullen's went hunting but are on their way back. They left me in charge of Nessie. When she was younger it wasn't fun but now that she is older, and my girlfriend, there are definite perks to being trusted by the family.
I took Nessie's hand in mine and kissed the palm gently several times. She giggled but kept mouthing the words.
"Why don't you just sing out loud?" I ask her and she sighs dramatically.
"You know I don't have a good voice. I would rather not disturb the perfect hearing of my family," Nessie explains and entwines her fingers through mine. I sigh back just as dramatically.
"Don't be stupid, Nessie, you have an amazing voice," I argue back. She doesn't answer. I don't repeat myself. I know she heard and is just choosing to ignore me.
"We're back!" Bella calls happily as she bounds into the living room and pounces on the couch next to Nessie. Bella, too, has a beautiful voice now. All the vampires do.
"Nessie, can sing, can't she, Bells?" Renesmee glares at me. She hates when I bring her family into our private matter.
"What private matters, Jacob?" Edward calls in evilly. I ignore him and stare at Bella.
"Of course, Renesmee can sing!' Bella exclaims and forcibly uses her daughter's full name. She still doesn't like Nessie much.
"I'm coming into the room now, drop whatever you are doing!" Edward warns us before entering the room. I drop Nessie's hand grudgingly. Edward always finds a way to ruin things…he snickers at my thought.
"Okay, okay, if I can sing so well, does that mean you guys can too?" Renesmee glares at me and her family. I shrug and her parents nod.
"I'm not much a singer, Nessie, didn't inherit the flawless vampire voice. So no, I don't sing." I tell her smugly. I see the mechanics in her mind buzzing furiously, she has a plan. More like a scheme by the look of ecstasy on her perfect face.
"Alice, Jasper, Rose, Emmett, Carlisle, Esme, can you all come to the living room?" Renesmee says a bit louder than her parents would have had to. But the result is the same. Each couple waltzes into the room and looks at Nessie. "I want to play a game." She announces. Every relaxes and takes a spot on a couch or the floor. Nessie's games are usually okay. "I want to have a karaoke battle!" Renesmee exclaims and jumps from her seat in joy. Her family looks around confused, their eyes settle on the TV where a music video is still being played. They understand and smile. Emmett even pokes Rose in the side, he thinks he can win.
"Are there any rules, Nessie?" Jasper asks. His calm face slightly scrunched in concentration.
"Nothing dirty! If it is dirty then you get points marked off!"
"Who are the judges?" Rosalie asks.
"I bet I can get Charlie to play judge and maybe even Claire, she is old enough now to know what sounds good!" I nod at Renesmee, Claire is ten now, she can make educated choices and wont choose the prettiest vampire.
"Who starts?" I ask Nessie, I hope Edward has to start.
"Wait, wait, wait! TWO MORE RULES! One, it has to be an original song…like you have to at least add your own stuff in the song! Two, it has to be for someone…even yourself. It just can't be a random song! Okay?" Renesmee bounces around the room happily, all eyes on her, where they should be, I think smugly.
"So who goes first?" I ask her again, I REALLY hope Edward has to start now!
"You." Nessie says simply. My jaw drops and the room bursts into laughter.
"But…uh…ummm…Nessie…honey…I….I cant sing!" I sputter in embarrassment.
"Yes, you can! Right everyone?" Nessie laughs and everyone agrees. Damn vampires…
~*~*~*~*~*~
My last hope was that Charlie and Claire wouldn't come. But they did. No one resists Nessie. That's why the next day I am standing in the middle of the living room sweating profusely. I cannot sing! But Nessie wants me too…soo…here I go…
"This song is for Edward," I laugh at myself and see Bella perk up and Edward glare. "It is based off the song 7 Things by Miley Cyrus…so here goes nothing…" or everything…
"I probably should have said this,
But at times I get so mad,
When I think about the previous,
Life I could have had.
I had Bella but you took her,
It's not possible for me not to care,
And now I'm howling at the moon,
But nothings ever gonna change,
Until you hear me scream, parasite!
The 7 things I hate about you!
The 7 things I hate about you, Edward!
You're a pain, your mind games, you're too secure,
You love her, she loves you,
You make me scream, you make me howl,
I don't know which side to prowl!
Your family, they bite,
You act like them in the middle of the night,
I wanna be talking to anyone else,
And the 7th things I hate most that you do…
You make me like you!
It's frustrating and depressing,
As I wait for you to say,
What I never want to hear now
'I always win, dog!'
When you say it, I will kill you,
If you write it, I'll destroy you,
Let's be clear,
Oh, Edward, I will kill you,
You're taking 7 steps too far here!
The 7 things I hate about you!
The 7 things I hate about you, Edward!
You're a pain, your mind games, you're too secure,
You love her, she loves you,
You make me scream, you make me howl,
I don't know which side to prowl!
Your family, they bite,
You act like them in the middle of the night,
I wanna be talking to anyone else,
And the 7th things I hate most that you do…
You make me like you!
And compared to all the great things,
That would take too long to write,
I probably should mention the 7 that I
Like!
The 7 things I like about you!
Your jokes, your wife, your daughter,
When we kiss I'm hypnotized!
You make me laugh; you're going to kill me,
I can tell it by your growl!
Her hand in mine,
When we're intertwined, everything's alright,
I wanna be with Nessie all the time,
She's the seventh thing I like about you!
Doesn't that piss you off?"
My adrenaline still rushing in my veins I run to Nessie and kiss her on the cheek. She blushes slightly and pushes me off. She tries to look angry but fails miserably.
Rosalie's mouth is twitching.
Emmett is laughing into a pillow.
Alice is chuckling lightly.
Jasper is smirking.
Carlisle and Esme and smiling.
Bella is laughing.
And Edward.
Edward is glaring!
Yes! Just the reaction I wanted!
"That was very good Jake!" Claire cheers. I look over to her. She smiles brightly and holds up two thumbs up.
"Very…interesting subject Jacob, Claire and I will take a short break to go over the score you will get. So hold out here and don't upset the family too much!" Charlie laughs and gestures for Claire. They leave the house together and climb into his car. They'll be back after dinner.
"Jacob, what were you thinking?" Nessie whispered lightly. I laugh and look back over at Edward who has composed himself.
"That was very, very interesting, Jacob. And yes, that does piss me off. But I think I will go next and win this competition. But unlike you, I won't sound like Bella's old truck." Edward smiles.
"Hey!" Bella chirps. We both ignore her, locked in a staring competition.
"Also, I won't sing to you…" Edward laughs and leaves the room to prepare his song.
"I think you could win!" Renesmee laughs and kisses me on the cheek. I think I can't but at least I got Edward mad…
A/N: Okay, okay, I know this was odd. But I couldn't help myself. The soundtrack just go released for the movie so all I can think about it Twilight music! Please rate and review! I wrote the song during school so it may suck just a bit…but I need to know what you think Jacob would get for singing this! 1-10 is the scoring. I'm scoring him on song and sound. So if you wanna give two scores awesome! Okay, thanks for reading my little one-shot here!
