We were walking through the forest at a normal human pace holding each other's hands in a tight grasp. Edward brought up Jacob and how he must feel knowing these vampires are after Renesmee when she has nothing to do with this.

"I'm concerned about him. He seemed so happy after the Volturi left and we all knew Nessie wasn't in danger He felt like he could relax and just enjoy his time with her, We all did. Now it's starting all over again and I am beginning to wonder how he is feeling and if he can cope" Edward said really concerned considering it was Jacob.

However Edward and Jacob have gotten close, for them at least and it was nice for me to see and to know that what happened in the past was staying in the past.

"Yea, poor Jake. He is so determined to do right by her all the time and what I'm worrying about is if something happens to her. How will that effect him?" I replied stuttering at the thought of anything happening to my daughter.

"It won't effect him because like I said nothing is going to happen to her or you if Jake and I have anything to do with it" Edward smiled with a smirk on his face probably proud of himself because I didn't try to argue.

I liked the way he said Jake and I. It sounded as if Edward and Jake were best buddies. Obviously it wasn't true but they are getting there. It just takes time, I thought to myself. I had let my thoughts run away with me again.

"I'm sure Emmett is in there warming up" I laughed sarcastically.

"Yea, since when does Emmett warm up. He just goes straight for the punch" replied Edward, both of us laughing now.

I often made fun of Emmett as much as I could because I always knew that behind my back he was making fun of me so I did the same at any chance I got. Emmett and I have a love/hate relationship.

"Is Emmett going to ask for another arm wrestling match today?" I asked Edward who I knew would know the answer.

"Yes and he so thinks he is going to win today. He's been practicing all morning. He's more determined than ever" Edward told me laughing at how childish his brother got on.

"Emmett, Emmett, Emmett," I muttered "Sometimes I think Nessie is more mature than him" I told Edward.

"Sometimes," He replied laughing.

"Do me a favor" He said.

"Anything"

"Beat him. I want to see his expression if he gets beat today again. It will make you 50-0."

"My pleasure" I laughed.

We were almost at the house. It seemed like we had gotten their so fast considering we were walking.

"Bella, Jake is really worried." Edward revealed. "He is going to ask us what we are going to do with Nessie."

"What will we say?"

"I'm not sure but Carlisle seems to think that having Nessie involved in the fight will give us a better chance of defeating them as they will not care about us, they will just want Renesmee which is definitely not going to happen or even come close to happening." Edward explained.

I stopped walking and Edward stared into my eyes. He could see the expression of confusion on my face.

"What's wrong?" Edward asked as soon as I stopped.

"I...I don't know where I want Renesmee to be. I don't want anyone to take her to a hiding spot for safety over the duration off the fight because I don't want her to be out of touching distance but I don't want her anywhere near them. It's really hard because I don't know what is the right thing to do and me, you and Jake will need to fight so I don't want her took away from us and I know she won't want to be took away from us, especially Jacob. I will be too worried about her Edward" I told Edward who was listening to me very carefully.

"Love, I know how you feel, the exact thought occurred to me earlier but I wanted to explain to you first and I'm sorry I kept you waiting the way I did, I shouldn't have. I knew you were getting impatient but I was listening to Alices' thoughts and got so caught up in what she was telling me" Edward apologized.

We were walking again. "It's alright, though at the time it felt like everything happened so fast. First Jacob and then Alice and then no one was answering me. I felt like I was going to scream" I revealed to him.

"I'm so sorry" he apologized again "I won't do it again, I promise"

"Your already forgiven" I told him.

"Thank you" he said. He was always so polite.

"Your welcome" I replied.

I felt that I had to get the last word in.

"What is everyone's mood like?" I asked.

"Calm considering the situation but I guess it's Jasper's doing" He assumed. "Nessie has just fallen asleep again."

"I don't blame her. If I could sleep I would be asleep by now too. She's has been through so much already and she is so young. Sometimes I feel there is a huge responsibility on her especially with Charlie. I mean I'm sure it's hard for her too keep such a big secret from her Grandpa. She doesn't exactly have a normal life."

"She understands though, she is used to it now" Edward emphasized. "It doesn't bother her, she has everything she wants and that's all she cares about," He said comforting me.

"Alot of the time now I think I'm going to wake up any minute and this would all be a dream. You, Nessie, Me as a vampire, our cottage. It doesn't feel real" I changed the subject not realizing it until the words came out.

"So I'm a dream now, am I?" Edward asked a rhetorical question now smiling.

"Your my dream" I replied smiling. "You'll always be my dream."

"And you are my one and only love. Remember that" He said.

He always said the right things, no matter how hard I tried he always had something better to say. I reached up to his face and touched his lips with mine, He made my blood boil. He always did, well he always used to make my heart skip a beat but that couldn't happen now. It was frozen. My feet touched the ground and my lips left his.

"Just thought I should do that since we never can with Emmett there" I said sarcastically.

"You can do it anytime you want, even if Emmett's there" Edward laughed.

He stared at me. "Why are you staring at me?" I asked.

"Because your beautiful" he said.

If I could blush now would've been the time. "Not as beautiful as you," I replied.

"Well I'm glad you think so!"

"Yes I do" I said.

"Why can't you just accept the compliment and say thank you?," He asked.

"Thank you" I said getting the last word in again.

He kissed me on the cheek and ran his smooth fingers through my hair. We walked up to the porch of the huge house. Suddenly I wasn't so excited anymore and Edward saw this. He couldn't read my mind but he could read my facial expressions only too well just like everyone else.

"Everything is going to be fine" He reassured me. "Trust me"

"I do." I replied.

He opened the door for me.

"Ladies first" He said.

"Thanks" I smiled.

Everyone was sitting in the living room. It seemed like they had been there a while. They seemed so comfortable. I wondered how long they were sitting there for. Everyone stared at us when we came in. Renesmee was lying in Jacob's arm's asleep. Carlisle and Esme were on the 3 seater recliner with there arms around each other. Alice had her head laid on Jasper's shoulder and Emmett and Rosalie were holding hands. I felt like saying a sarcastic remark to Emmett but I didn't want to break the atmosphere and it wasn't exactly the best time to try and be funny which I never accomplished too well anyway. I turned around and Edward was by my side with his arms around my waist. Him being there by my side was helping me through this.
