Chapter 4- Not Really An Answer

Renesmee's POV

I waited impatiently for mom and dad to come back. Jacob came about ten minutes ago but I didn't ask him anything. I was sitting on my aunt Rosalie's lap and I stretched my arm out to touch her cold cheek with my warm hand for the twentieth time. I showed her an image of mom and dad. "They should be getting here soon, Nessie just a little bit longer." She said as my mom and dad entered the living room. I jumped off my aunt and rushed to where they were standing. I hugged both of them in one and then I turned to my mom.

She walked over to one of the couches to sit. As she sat down, she fixed me on her lap, then Dad sat next to her. "Well, Emmett and I have to go hunt; Jasper and Alice went shopping, so we most be on our way." Aunt Rosalie said and I saw her get up from the couch. I got off my mom's lap and went to give her and uncle Emmett, a hug and kiss goodbye.

"See you tomorrow Renesmee, have a good night sleep." Uncle Emmett shouted back as he and Aunt Rosalie waved goodbye, and then they disappeared into the forest. I went back to my mom and hopped on her lap, she smiled at me and I smiled back. I didn't want to talk so I decided to use my other form of communication.

"I'll be back later, I have some things to do." Jacob said "Bye Nessie" He said to me before headed for the door, I just waved at him; which was unusal because I never wanted him to leave. Then out of nowhere my Dad got up. "I'll be back too. I think you two have a conversation to finish" He said and my mom gave him the death stare. I giggled at that, since they were both vampires a death stare seemed kind of silly. After my dad left, I turned to my mom and put my hand on her cheek. I showed her he image of us in the garden and when I asked my question. Then I pulled my hand away and waited for her to answer. We sat there for a good 10 minutes an uncomfortable silence between us.

"Renesmee the answer to your question isn't simple" Mom said looking straight into my chocolate brown eyes.

"Why?" I asked even more confused then before, I really didn't understand why my question was so hard.

"The thing is sweetheart, Jacob's here to protect you" she said
"Ok, so why does he need to protect me if the Volturi is gone?" I answered with another question

"Are they coming, back for me Mommy?" I asked now terrified

"No, it has nothing to do with that" She said to my relieve and brought me into a tight hug.

"Then why?" I asked pulling away so I could see her face.

"Because everyone needs protection" She said calmly

"What do you mean?" I asked

"That's enough questions for a day young lady, you'll know everything when you get older." She said touching my nose with the tip of her finger and giving me a kiss on the forehead.

"You mean in a couple of months, right?" I said

"No I mean in a couple of years" She answered

"But.." I started but never finished

"But nothing, enough" She said

Then we got up and she carried me to the door, where Daddy was waiting for us. As mom sat me down I saw the clock and it said 10:00 pm. The day had gone by so fast. No wonder I felt so sleepy, I gestured my dad to pick me up. He looked confused, but did so any way. I put my hand on his cheek as I rested my head on his shoulder. And showed him my room, he understood and took my mother's hand in his, then we headed to the cottage. He put me into bed and they both said goodnight, I watched as they both went out my bedroom door and turned of the lights.

And with that I knew there was a night I made a promise to myself to find out what it was or my name wasn't Renesmee Carlie Cullen Swan. The good thing was that I had a start and that was that it involved Jacob.
