*chapter 2*

"i-its not just you. i-i mean with everything thats happened to me, i j-just kinda stopped trusting people. l-like today i didnt actually t-think you would come get me." the poor baby was studdering so much. he must have been through alot.

"collin listen to me. im so sorry you dont trust people anymore but you can trust me ok? i care about you and i dont want you to ever feel uncomfortable with me." reached in my pocket and took out a peice of paper. then i found a pen in the car and wrote down my number and handed it to him."if anything ever happens and not just today, and you need me to come up to the school or where ever you are call me." i got his bag out the back seat and got out of the car. he followed. i went to him and put it on his back. then i embraced him in a hug. "now i want you to go in there and strout down the hall way and not give a damn about what they say about you" he chuckled nervously.

"ok nessie and i-i trust you. ill call you if i need something." i smiled and kissed his head then pulled away.

"good. now have a great day at school ok?" he smiled more confident then he ever had and nodded. my smile got wider. he started walking towards the school he turned around and waved to me i waved back and waited until he was out of site to get back in the car. i drove off back to the house thinking about about what i could do for the rest of the day. i guess me and jacob could go catch a movie. when i got to the house i double parked and walked in to the cottage.

"hey mom is jacob up?" she shook her head. jeez this guy could sleep. "umm ok well can we go out until i have to go pick collin up later on? like to the mall or the movies?"

"sure honey. me and your father are going to visit grandpa charlie so call us if you need anything." i smiled and went to kiss her cheek.

"thank you mom, tell grandpa i had said hi"

"will do" with that i ran upstairs and into my room. i laid down next to jake. he always looked so peaceful when he sleep.

"wake up jakey." no response. "wakey wakey jakey" i said shaking his arm. still no response. finally i placed my lips on his while shaking his arms. his lips were so warm and soft. without notice his lips started moving with mine. i smiled into the kiss and he did the same. then we parted.

"that was one hell of a wake up call." i giggled and gave him another peck.

"what am i here for? but anyways get your butt up we're going to port angelos!" he groaned and got out of bed stretching. damn look at that sexy bod.

"do we have to?" he whined.

"oh shut it, we're not shopping we're going to the movies" he sighed in relief.

"awesome. so are you ready?" i went over to grab his hand.

"wait arent you hungry?" he shrugged.

"ill get something at the theater." i nodded and this time when we walked downstairs mom wasnt there. i grabbed the keys the ferrari and tossed them to jacob. we got in the car and headed to port angelos. compared to jacobs driving i was a speed demon! i mean he went over the speed (we all do!) but he drove way slower that me, so by time time we got to the theater it was 9:00. we stood in line and bought our tickets for 3 movies. a vampire one, a scary one, and a comedy. after that we went to the consession stand and bought popcorn and stuff. we were seated right when the movie started.

through out the movie me and jake would just laugh at the parts they got wrong.

"did they really think we burn in the sun?" i asked jacob as we moved to the next movie. he just laughed.

"just like they think we only phase on a full moon." we both laughed. the scary movie was not scary at all. due to a better seeing we could tell all the props and stuff were fake so we just got a good laugh out of it. now the last movie we went to the comedy, was hilarious! i was still laughing as we walked out the theater. i took out my cell phone and froze were i was.

"HOLY FUCK!" i yelled and got a whole lot of attention. jacob put his hands on my shoulders.

"renesmee are you ok?" i shook my head.

"no we have to go now! collins school lets out in 30 minutes!" jacobs eyes got wide and we ran out to the car."toss me the keys i drive faster!" he did and we were out of there in a matter of seconds. no matter how fast i went we were going to be at least 15 minutes late. the whole ride there i was hoping he would still trust me. i dont know what i would do if he didnt. like i said we got there 15 minutes late and when i parked i saw him sitting on the front stairs looking sad. i felt so guilty. "stay here jake." i got out of the car and made my way over to him

"collin!" i yelled. when he saw me he looked relieved but still sad. i ran the rest of the way and embraced him in my arms he hesitated in hugging me back but he did,very slowly. "oh gosh i am so sorry i was late i lost track of time. do you still trust me?" he stayed quiet for a minute. i was on the verge of tears. what the hell?

"im not mad at y-you nessie i just had a bad day. and yes i-i still trust you." i sighed in relief and released him. we got up and i ran my fingers through his hair. but there was something sticky in it. i walked behind him and saw that it was gum. i tried to pull as much as i could out with out hurting him.

"did they do this to you?" he nodded. i was furious. "i will kick everyone of their asses collin how dare they do this to you!" he just hung his head down. they had absoultly no right to make this little boys life a living hell. "dont worry about a thing collin but i have to ask, why dont you fight back you are a werewolf after all." he sighed

"b-because the guys said if i did i would get to angry and phase. and plus im just a c-coward. i wasnt meant to be a wolf so why me?" he looked like he wanted to cry again. i cradled him close to my heart.

"dont call yourself names collin. you have been through alot and you are emotionally damaged. and thats perfectly fine, i understand. and you are a wonderful person thats why your a wolf. to bring peace to the world and to the pack. anyone who doesnt like you is a damn fool because you are the mixture of a perfect man! sweet ,sensitive, thoughtful, and sexy. who could ask for more?" he chuckled. i smiled. i pulled away so i could look him in the eyes "and dont ever doubt yourself sweetie, people are only mean to you because they are jealous. hell id be jealous of you. but you know, im just finer than you so..." he laughed a full on laugh and it was the most beautiful sound i had ever heard. i beamed at him.

"thank you renesmee, i r-really needed that." he said now really shy. i kissed the top of his head.

"no problem hun thats what im here for." we walked over and got into the car and i drove him home. the rest of the week went exactly like that. and i was really getting to know collin alittle more. i was happy when he came out of his shell to me. dont get me wrong he is still really shy around me but he can finally talk to me without studdering. come thursday when i was dropping him off at school something felt off. like i knew something was gonna happen.

"nessie are you ok?" i looked at him and smiled.

"yeah im fine sweetie have a good day at school today." i kissed his forhead before he got out of the car. i drove home and laid on my bed for a couple of hours and that weird feeling just wouldnt go away so i had to go down to the school and see what it was i looked at the . i would have a couple of hours to just sit down there with him. i walked downstairs and left a note for my parents they were out hunting.

"mom and dad, something felt off when i dropped collin off at school today going to see what it is,but dont worry im sure its not a threat. love nessie" with that i got in the car an drove up to the school. when i got there i went straight up to the front office.

"hello miss what can i do for you today?" a lady behind the desk asked.

"can i have the room number for what class collin areceli is in?"

"may i ask why and who you are?" i mentally rolled my eyes .nosey ass.

"im his eldest step sister vanessa. and im here to sit in his class and observe his behavoir." she nodded her head and searched up something on her computer.

"his class is room 308." i smiled politely. and then left out the office. i was walking down the hall looking for his class when i heard people chanting fight. i followed the noise and found out it was ms. landons room. oh hell no they better not be messing with my baby. i mean collin. i walked in and went straight to the teacher, who was trying to silence her students. i told her that i was here for collin and that i had a plan to get them to stop picking on him. she just smiled and told me to go ahead. i pushed one guy out of the way that was shouting in his face. but collin just had his face buried in his arms.

"collin,baby its me" he looked up and when i saw all the hate and sadness in them it broke my heart.

"nessie what are you d-doing here?" the other kids had already quieted down.

"i came to see if you were alright." i said rubbing his back.

"i-im fine" one of the guys that were yelling at collin spoke up.

"what is a girl like you doing with a freak like him?" time to start my plan. i turned to collin.

"you didnt tell them about us collin?" he looked confused but i shot him a look that said play along."i knew you wanted to break up with me. baby please dont leave me ill change i promise."

"y-you dont need to d-do that nessie." he said playing along but nervously. i acted as if my world had been reborn.

"really? you'll take me back?" he nodded his head hesitantly. i threw my arms around him. "yay thank you!" then i kissed him. just a small peck, but enough to collect alot of gasps. when i pulled away from collin he looked surprised and his cheeks flushed a pink so he looked down. i got up and stood in the boys face that was been picking on collin. i gave him my best vampire look and he stepped back.

"and if you ever mess with my collin again your ass is mine you got that?" he gulped and nodded. i smiled and sat on the floor next to collin the rest of the day. after we went to his locker we walked out to the car. once we were settled in and i pulled out he spoke shyly.

"you didnt have t-to do w-what you did for m-me today nessie." i smiled at him.

"i know but i wanted to i couldnt stand to see you upset like that. you dont deserve it." he smiled shyly.

"thank you though, a-and that was m-my first k-kiss you know." i gaped at him.

"really? i wouldve thought that all the girls would be chasing after you." he looked away.

"no. they make f-fun of me to." i was getting furious all over again.

"what do they say to you?" he sighed a shaky sigh. and i pulled into his house.

"w-well they always say im u-ugly, cant dress, and s-something similar to what y-you said to seth a-at the bonfire"ouch. that has gotta be a low blow to his ego. i sighed. why the hell do they tease him? and plus i had just broke down his shell alittle and he was actually happier!

"when did people start teasing you hun?" i said rubbing his back.

"about 4th grade. i-ive always been weird. i n-never really had f-friends back then because i was always so shy. b-but now its different because i have no choice on whether to have friends of not. a-another thing is that my parents were h-having problems when i first started m-middle school and they would b-beat me. so i was also just jumpy. that was t-the first time they called me a freak" i stayed silent soaking this all up. it wasnt his fault he was shy. and it wasnt his fault the got beat by his parents and was scared that someone would hurt him.

"is that why you keep to yourself alot? are you afraid to let people in your life because your afraid that they'll hurt you in the end?" he nodded his head and kept his eyes on the floor. i let him i didnt want to hurt him anymore so i continued to rub his back soothingly. "baby, sometimes... you gotta let people hurt you thats just the way of life." i heard him sigh again.

"nessie, you life has always been perfect. y-you never had to w-worry about being picked on. one b-because youve n-never been to school.a-and two your not a l-low life like i am..."

"NO!" i yelled and he jumped. oh no i scared him! crap! "oh baby im sorry i yelled but i dont ever want you to call yourself a lowlife. you may be alot of things, good and bad. but a low life is not one of them. i want you to stop listening to what other people have to say about you. especially those little girls whores you are no doubt very handsome and have the most beautiful soul even if it is damaged. but if you let some people in it can begin to heal. and sweetie dont worry about style cause you got it all. and as for your manhood... you might be to much to handle for anygirl." he blushed and tried to hide his face.

"i-ive already let y-you in nessie and the wolf pack. i-im not ready to let a-anyone else just yet" i smiled and hugged him. i just love hugging him. but he always hesitates to hug me back. like right now. but i dont mind. i've got to let him heal at his own pace.

"im honored you've let me in and allow me to help you heal i really am but i have 2 things to say. one we've been sitting in my car for an hour." he pulled away from me.

"oh im sorry." i giggled and put my hand on his arm.

"its ok collin oh and the second thing is, we sound like an oprah episode" he laughed his musical laugh and i couldnt help but join in.

"i guess i should get inside now and thank you for actually listening to me." i smiled widely. i got him to talk with out studdering!

"hey im here for ya babe."he chuckled.

"bye renesmee, tell jake i said hi." i laughed. of course he knew i would be going to see him.

"ok and ill see you tommorrow and bright and early on saturday." he smiled. then got out and headed to his door. i waited until he got in the house then i drove off. i started to think about jake. im his imprint and i love him, but my feelings dont seem to be moving past friends with benifits. with collin its a different thing. ive known for about 5 days but i feel like i love him more than a friend already. everything i say to him is the utter truth. i feel like crying for him sometime because of the way they treat him. with jake, it feels like i cant live without he or collin were to leave... i wouldnt make it. like my mom couldnt live without my dad when he left.

i pulled up to my house and parked the car in the garage putting the keys back on the hook and walking into the house.
