Bella's Point of View

The final bell rang and I looked over at Edward. "Time to go see Jake." I said, stiffly.

"Yeah." He said, beaming.

"Stop that Edward! Don't be like that.." I said, frowning. "Don't have that much fun with this. Or at least don't tell me."

"Sorry.." He said as we walked to the parking lot, holding hands. "But it'll be so great!" He said, way to happy.

"Quit Edward." I said, pulling my hand from his and opening my door of the Volvo. I sat down and was surprised to see Nessie sitting in the back already. "Hey, Nessie." I said, frowning as her father sat beside me.

"What was dad doing?" She asked, frowning.

"Being mean." I stated, as we pulled out of our parking spot and into the long line of cars.. I wasn't telling her about Jake. No. He didn't want her to know about the imprintion, not yet.. And I would have to explain things if I told her what stupid Edward was doing.

"Oh." She said, staring out the window.. I fallowed her gaze. Mike (the forth) was walking past the car to an old rusted truck just a few cars away..

"Nessie.. Are you watching him?" I asked, laughing.

"No." She lied..

"Don't lie to me.. I'm your mother, I know when you're lying." I said, smiling over at Edward.

"Who?" Edward asked me, fallowing my eyes.. He growled when he saw who it was. "Newton." His voice came out in more of a growl than his voice.

"Dad?" Nessie asked, nervously.

"I'm okay." He said, quickly changing his expression to an easy smile, but the smile didn't touch his eyes now on the road. I took his hand and smiled at him as we turned onto the road, and he accelerated.. "Not mad anymore?" He asked, smiling down at me.

"Maybe.. If you shut up about Jake." I told him.

"Okay." He said, kissing the top of my head.

"Good boy." I said, glancing back at Nessie. She was staring out the window, deep in thought. What was she going to do?


Nessie's Point of View

I ran up the stairs, knowing we had beat Jacob here from school (yes, he had started back in school today.).. I didn't know why, but I didn't want to see him. I wanted to hide in my room until it was time for school tomorrow. But I had the worst feeling that wouldn't stop Jake.. We were friends. It's not like he hadn't come in here before.

On the third floor, I turned past my parents room and to the very end of the hall.. I opened my door and sat down at my desk with a sigh. I pulled my books out of my backpack, setting them on my desk in a neat stack, before turning to my lap top. I turned it on and opened up my favorite search engine.. With a quick flick of my hands across the keyboard I typed Mike's name.. I was surprised when I saw a link for the Newton's store. I started reading about it (at my special half vampire speed.), and the many generations of Newton's that had kept the traditions up. The store had been open for at least seventy years...

I smiled when I saw the link for employees.. I clicked on it and was pleased to see a picture of Mike, but when I read below it I realized that it was in fact a picture of the fonder.. James Newton. He must have been Mike's great great grandfather or something like that.

I scrolled down to the very bottom, and smiled deeply at the latest picture.. It was myMike. I gazed at the picture, seeing how cute his face was with its big small, stretching across his face. He looked so happy, all the time.. Just seeing his face made me want to smile- but that could been other things too..

I closed the page, and turned to the books, sitting in the corner of my desk.. I opened my favorite and started reading, quickly losing my worries in the twisted tail of a cruel and unforgiving love triangle.

I didn't notice the sound, loud bounds up the stairs, until it was to late.. Jake opened the door and strode across the room, plopping himself down on my bed. "So. What's up? How was your first day of high school?" He asked, a wide smile on his face.. In my mind I couldn't help but compare his smile to Mike's. Although Jake was handsome, I couldn't help think Mike was cuter.. His face was still boyish and seemed carefree. I needed some of that, in this magical and slightly scary world.

"Fine." I said, stiffly as I closed the book and set it back on top of the stack. I looked at him, his legs dangling off the edge of my king sized bed. "How was yours?" I asked, faking a smile.

"Nothing special.. Make any new friends?" He asked, smile disappearing at my lack of enthusiasm.

I thought about that.. I didn't want Jake to know anything about Mike. I don't know why, but I didn't.. It wouldn't be easy though; he knew my face so well. "Er. No.. Pretty much stuck with the family." I answered, glancing out the window.. I could see Leah sitting at the edge of the forest.. She looked sad. "Hey, what's up with Leah? Is she okay?" I asked, frowning.

"Oh.. She had a hard time at school." Jacob said, feeling uncomfortable.

"What happened?" I asked, worried.

"Nothing.. Don't worry, Nessie. Leah is strong, she'll be okay." He said, and I glanced out the window to see Leah sitting in the same place.. Even from here I could see the tears glistening on the skin of her face.

"Jake! What happened to her?" I asked, worried. Leah and I had (amazingly) become somewhat friends.. We talked and she was able to confide secrets in me, that she wished her pack didn't know.. Know I wished so much that I could tell her about Mike, but then the whole pack would find out (and that would suck.).

"Okay.. Here's what happened." He said, with a sigh. "See she was walking to class and well.. you know how girls don't really like her?" He asked, a deep frown on his face.. I nodded. "Well.. As she passed two girls started talking about Emily and Sam.. Just randomly, on purpose. And then they said something that she didn't know, something that made it worse..." He hedged, not wanting to go any further.

"What?" I asked, pleading. I was worried for my friend.

"Well.. They started out just talking about how cute they were together- Emily and Sam." He clarified. "Then one of them asked if they had heard 'the news'.. The others said no and so the other one smiled and started gushing about how she had heard that Emily's baby was graduating college this year.." He said, frowning.. I looked out at Leah, crying in the shadows. I felt like I was going to cry. I hated what happened to Leah. She was a good person, never did anything wrong. Now she was bitter and broken.. "That's not even what did it. Then one of the other girls started talking about how Sam was so much better off with Emily, that Leah wasn't good enough for him.. They all were agreeing and then one of them started laughing about how how the baby was graduating college before Leah even finished high school.." He laughed and I frowned at him, angrily. This isn't funny. "Sorry. That's not what's funny. It's the next part. So Leah turns and punches the girl who said it in the face.. She didn't cry or anything, just punched her in the face. It was hilarious. The girl was bleeding like crazy.. I think Leah broke her nose." His voice was light and I felt torn, because in this moment, he looked so beautiful.. So happy, and I couldn't bare to compare him to Mike in my head.. I knew I wouldn't be able to choose.

"That's awful." I said, frowning out the window.. I frowned when I saw Sam step out of the trees beside her.

"What?" Jake asked, looking out the window. "Oh.. Sam's talking to her." He said, and I rolled my eyes.

I couldn've listened in.. But I didn't want to. I didn't want to listen to Sam trying to make Leah feel better. I hated Sam.. I knew it wasn't his fault, and I knew that Leah didn't want me to hate him, but I couldn't help it.. He'd caused her so much pain. . So I watched Jacob, who was watching Sam.. I felt in my heart a deep down love for Jacob, but I needed Mike's carefree smile.. I've been looking for (not consciously, but still..) someone to be my sunshine.. Mom had told me of how Jacob had been her sunshine, known things about her that she hadn't even told him.. That he had helped her live through a time when she was more a zombie than a human. Now Jacob was touched by to much magic, by to many worries to be anyone's sunshine.

"Nessie?" He asked, suddenly turning to me.. His eyes were intense and I frowned.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"Nothing." He said, shaking his head. "Never mind."

"What? What is it?" I asked, curious now.

"It's nothing Nessie." He said, looking away from me out the window and into the trees.

"What is it, Jacob?" I asked, standing up and walking to him.. I sat down beside him on the bed and took his big hand in mine. "You can tell me.. You know that, right? You can tell me anything." I told him..

"Nessie.. I don't know if this is the best time to tell you this. I don't know if there ever will be the perfect moment to tell you.. And you might be mad, cause I didn't tell you sooner.. I didn't think it was right and it might not be now, but I don't think I can keep it from you anymore." He said, his dark eyes boring into my green ones..

"What is it, Jake? It's okay. Just tell me." I begged. I didn't like the suspense.

"Renesmee Carlie Cullen. I.. I. I imprinted on you." He stated, touching my face lightly with one of his big hands.

I felt myself gape at him.. Yes. I had heard that word before.. I knew what he was talking about, my heart pounded in my chest and I frowned..

Mike. Jacob. Mike. Jacob. Mike. Jacob. Mike. Jacob. Mike. Jacob.

Jacob. Mike. Jacob. Mike. Jacob. Mike. Jacob. Mike. Jacob. Mike.

My head spun and the last words I heard before I went under were from Jacob's frantic worried voice.. "Nessie? Are you alright?" After that I blanked out.. Lost in a sea of nothingness. I wish beyond anything, I had never met Mike Newton. That way I could just smile and tell Jake that I loved him too.. Now. I was confused and My head was spinning in his big hands.
