Renesmee POV
I sighed in relief, the vows were exchanged, Eleazar performed the ceremony himself. The newlyweds made their way for the reception to be held in the yard. Aunt Alice, as always, had gone overboard and the decorations were definitely beautiful. Songs started playing and because Momma didn't wanna dance, I danced with Daddy. He taught me how to dance when I was little, simultaneously teaching how to play the piano as well. I was happy in my father's arms, secure, stable, and strong.
"He wants to steal you away from me." My Daddy said, interrupting my blissful thoughts.
"Who, Daddy?"
"Nahuel. He wants to dance with you. He is about to come over here and steal you away from me."
"May I have this dance?" Nahuel said, ever so politely, and some for odd reason, my heart sped up, and I could feel the blush spreading across my face.
"Certainly, Nahuel."I said, giving him my hand.
Edward POV
I watched as my little girl walked away with Nahuel. My innocent baby didn't get the subtle meaning of my words. She couldn't read Nahuel's mind, and she didn't know the thoughts and feelings he harbored for her. She was dancing innocently, admiring Nahuel's dancing skills.
"She is growing up, Edward, and you can't do anything to stop it." Bella came up as I wrapped my arms around her.
"I know, that's what I am afraid of, love. She is just so oblivious. I know sometimes she looks at us and wonders if she will ever have a love like that. I honestly don't know what to do, Bella. She doesn't realize how Jacob feels about her."
"I hope everything works out for her and Jake…after all, she is destined for him." Bella made sure to whisper in a voice that Nessie wouldn't overhear.
Suddenly, I heard Damien's thoughts. I knew he wasn't listening to mine, because he was too engrossed by Nessie and Nahuel dancing. But I would pick Nahuel over Damien and I would take Jake over the both of them, hands down, no questions asked. Never in the entire of my life, did I think I would pick a mutt over those of my own kind. But Jake has more than proven his worth over the years and for the love he has (much to my chagrin) showered on Renesmee, I will forever be grateful.
Damien POV
I didn't like it. I didn't like it one bit. Nessie dancing with Nahuel. I mean, she is obviously as dense I thought, because she is way too beautiful for Nahuel. I mean, I understand that she is the only of his kind that isn't related to him, but still. The boy needs to have some class. Wow, I just contradicted myself, for the first time ever. I don't ever recall doing that, even in my meek human life.
First, I say Nessie is too good for Nahuel and then I say Nahuel doesn't have any class in courting or rather, his pathetic attempt to court her. What is happening to me? All of this has happened due to Nessie. And I'm not sure if I like where this is going. I need to leave again. I excused myself from the party and took a walk outside, in the glorious snow. I began to ponder what was going on, when I heard someone's footsteps.
I turned to Nessie, talk about speaking of the devil.
"Hey, Damien." She said.
"What are you doing? Stalking me?"
"No, I was just wondering why you left the party and whether it was because of me."
"There you go again, you self-centered half-ling. My life doesn't revolve around you. Everything I do isn't your concern. So why don't you just go back to the party, Nessie?"
"Well, I was thinking if I did something wrong again, and I came to apologize. Whatever it is I did, I'm sorry, Damien."
"How many times do I have to tell you? It has nothing to do with you? You mean nothing to me you stupid, self-centered, attractive, selfish, rude, stuck-up, spoiled brat?"
"You know, Damien, I remembered how you reacted to me earlier. I thought maybe I caused you pain again. I came to apologize. But you are absolutely right, I am a fool. I was a fool to think that an arrogant prude like you would ever care about someone else. I was wrong to think maybe we could be friends."
And with that tirade coming to an end, she stalked off. She seemed really hurt, and for a fraction of a second, I wanted to run after her and apologize for my rude behavior. But then I decided I didn't care what Renesmee Carlie Cullen thought about me. Because it didn't matter. Nope, it most certainly didn't matter.
