P3 Chapter 7

Tanya POV

The house was packed! Haha, packed. Hehe, wolf joke.

Anyway Zafrina had just gotten in so naturally the attention was
focused on Renesmee. But she was gloomy.

Wolf boy wasn't around so she went up to her room a while ago. She
said she needed sleep but it had been a solid two hours. Something had
to be done.

So being mature adults, Emmett and Alice came in with straws. I had
the shortest. I had to go get her. Damn.

I walked up the stairs of execution. I slowly followed her scent to
her bedroom. I knocked gently. "Nessie?"

There was a muffled shuffle. Good enough for me. I was turning to
leave when the door came open. I turned around just in time for her to
fling herself into my arms.

"Oh Auntie Tanya! Why? Why isn't he here with me?" I grimaced. I hated
the whole aunt thing. It made me feel old.

Oh shit. She just said something. What was it. Oh, ummm... "It'll be
okay sweetheart." That line usually works for Esme. Now it's been
Tanya-fied. Hehe.

"I spent four days cooking an he doesn't even bother showing up!"
Her sobs were shaking the both of us. This was soooo not in the job
description.

"Ness, it'll be fine. But we have o get downstairs. There gonna start
eating soon. Don't you wanna see the wolves devour your food?"

"I only want Jacob!"

Okay, my patience was wearing thin. "Well too damn bad. C'mon. I
picked the shortest straw so you're gonna get your ass down those
stairs whether you like it or not." I picked her up bridal style and
stood at the top of the staircase. "I've got her!"

There were whoops and cheers. But my chest hurt when I realized I
could barely hear them over the sobs. Oh shit! Was I actually caring
now? Meh.

I sighed. "Give us one more minute guys." I carried Ness back to her
room and locked the door. We needed to talk.

Cassidy POV

I had brought my brother's dog to the park with me today. We were
going to have a good ole game of frisbee.

Ever since I had came to visit my brother and his wife in Oklahoma, it
had been kinda boring.

My brother was fun sure, he had always been my favorite. But still,
now that he was married he barely had time for me and he had changed.
Whether he knew it or not.

He was actually supposed to walk Mickey with me but he had to go to
his son's soccer game at last minute because Stacey had to work. I
sighed.

Once we got there I took of my jacket and threw it in a crumpled heap
on the ground. I took of my flip flops too. So there was nothing but
my surfer shorts and tank top on.

I walked Mickey deeper into the park so we were surrounded by the
beautiful trees. I threw the frisbee.

I was never good at this. I was never good with throwing period.
That's what my brother was determined to teach me.

Hence, the football incident. Speaking of, I was wondering how that
Jake character was doing. He seemed like a chummy mate.

Mickey had just given me the frisbee again so I threw it. Crikey! Too
far!

I chased after Mickey who had gone down the path to get it.

"Mickey! Oi! No, I'll get it mate!" But he wasn't listening to reason
anymore. Man, it seemed dark as I walked up to the boundary between
the park and the woods.

But no, I had to get Mickey back! He was all I had right now. I
swallowed and took off running. No looking back.

Jacob POV

I heard the screaming before I heard the running and barking. Shiz!
Someone was coming!

I transformed into human form and in the midst of struggling to pull
on my shorts a frisbee clucked me on the head.

Ouch. I shook it off and pulled up the zipper just as a lab pounced on
me and bounced off. Poor doggie. I am a vampire now. Hehe. Fawesome.

I checked to make sure he was okay. He rolled over and stuck out his
tongue. He was playing dead. Haha, I rubbed the poor guy's tummy.

"What's your name little buddy?"

"His...name is...Mickey." I looks up to see Cassidy panting up to us.

"Candy, you look like crap."

"Oh shush it puppet."

"Here." I tossed her a water bottle. Oops, maybe that was too fast for
a human. Either way, she caught it.

Sweet. She stared at it confused for a second and then she unscrewed
it and gulped it down. I laughed as she finished up and she blushed.

"What?" She asked embarrassingly.

"Its that you swallowed it down so fast!"

"That's what he said." We both broke into a fit of laughter. Mickey
stared at us like we were high.

After satisfying Mickey and grabbing her stuff she asked if I wanted
to walk down the beach with her.

I said sure. So on the way to the beach she stopped home and left a
message with one if the kids running around inside.

"Oi, sorry you had to see that. It's my nieces and nephews. They hate
their babysitter but I threaten to go home if they don't behave. It
works," she paused and then added, "until I walk out the door."

I got to hold Mickey's leash on the way there. Being a wolf, it seemed
wrong to keep a dog on it's leash.

At the corner I stopped. Cassidy stopped two feet ahead of me. "What
is it?"

I shook my head to indicate that it wasn't her. I bent down and
unhooked the leash from around Mickey's neck. He licked my face in
response. I laughed.

"Whoah, I didn't know he was so well trained," she said as we were
walking down to the beach. I laughed at her surprise. "You're really
good with animals."

I was shocked for a moment. It had been a while since I'd received a
complement. I blushed. "I guess I am."

"Aye mate?"

"Yeah?"

"Race ya!" She was running before she even finished the sentence. I
took off after her. I so wasn't gonna let that cheater beat me!
