Chapter 6:

Still Renesmee's POV:

"Here, try this one on too." Alice handed me another dress over the top of the changing room. I sighed. Couldn't she just foresee what dress I would end up wearing instead of making me try them all on? "Okay! Let me see! I know you're done Nessie, there's no fooling me."

I took a deep breathe and pulled the curtain back before Alice yanked it back herself. I stepped out. As soon as Alice saw me she all but danced for joy. "That's it Nessie! That's your dress!"

I looked at my reflection. I was wearing a midnight blue cocktail dress that went great with my pale skin. The dress had straps that fell off my shoulders delicatley and was quite short. Daddy wouldn't like that. It just barely covered my thighs with a layer of lace trim at the end but I had to admit that it was longer than some of the other ones Alice had had me in. I looked at myself again. I looked much older than sixteen in this dress. I could probably qualify for the same age as Jacob. I just hoped he liked it.

Alice was already planning my hair and make up to go with the dress. I changed back in the dressing room and looked around the store some more while Alice payed.

Finally, we left and instead went to a shoe store. It didn't take us long there. I imediatly fell in love with a pair of peep toe stiledo heels that matched flawlessly with the dress. But Alice seemed to be buying time like she was trying to distract me or something.

On the ride back I asked Alice about it but she just played dumb and said she didn't know what I was talking about.

When we got to the house, almost everyone was gone. The only person at the house was momma, which surprised me since she was usually at the cabin or with daddy. But there she was, sitting on the couch and waiting for us to get home. I ran over and hugged her."Mom! Where is everyone?" When momma didn't say, I pulled back and studied her face, She looked like she was trying to think of an excuse.

Finally, she said."They went out hunting."

I knew they didn't, momma was a terrible liar."Mom, they just got back from a hunting trip."

After that she sighed and told me not to worry about it. Alice jumped in then and declared that everything was ready for the fundraiser in 2 days.

I sighed."Alice why do we even have to go to this thing?"

"You have to go because it will improve your social status. I'm going because I want to."

Improve my social status? What did that even mean? But I held my tongue because it was best not to question Alice. I saw momma smirk out of the corner of my eye.

I spent the rest of the day watching television and eating green olives (they were one of the only human foods that didn't taste like dirt to me).

Finally, as it was just starting to get dark out, Jacob came inside from patrol.

"Jacob!" I ran over to him.

He ruffled my hair."Hi Nessie. God, what's for dinner? I'm starving."

Rosalie walked in through the back door then."Get it yourself, dog. I'm sure there's plenty of scraps out on the porch for you to munch on."

Jacob just rolled his eyes and chuckled. I offered him the jar of olives but he shook his head.

We watched t.v. for a while longer until all of a sudden Alice's eyes glazed over and she gasped. Everyone looked at her. A second later, the back door burst open and daddy, Carlisle, Jasper,and Emmett came rushing in.

I heard Alice whisper something like,"They're on their way." and then saw Carlisle nodd. Everyone started taking up a defensive postition and Jacob grabbed my hand and protectively pulled me to the back of the room.

"Jake? What's going on?" I whispered in a shaking voice.

Jacob sighed before answering."Some other vampires happen to be in the region. We didn't want to worry you so we didn't tell you."

I didn't have time to be angry about this though because the next thing I knew the door was being opened by Carlisle as he welcomed two strange vampires into the house.
