So, I think it's safe to say, that I'm in the safe zone right about now.

"You know, you could've helped." I said placing the last couple bags of groceries onto the island counter. Carrying those things in was a huge pain. Especially when you were dropping food out of the bags all over the place. Besides I had to walk back and forth to the car, ugh. She got her way this time.

I had to learn to suck it up to her pouts, and her sweet talk. Especially when she went all. Jacob. Jakey. That was my weakness right there. She was a monster, she knew exactly what she was doing. Little maneater.

"Could've.. would've.. didn't." She laughed. Nessie sat on the sofa snuggled up in a blanket watching TV. Of course as soon as we got home she ran inside and kicked off her shoes, leaving me to do all the work. But she assured me that I was the man of the house and that I had to do all the actual work.

"Gee thanks Ness." I rolled my eyes and pulled out all the food from the bags, shoving them into cabinets.. I didn't know what I was doing or where I was putting things, but I was putting them away so that's all that mattered.

Nessie laid on the couch looking perfectly at ease while watching tv.. completely beautiful. The way her eyes would seem to light up when she saw something she liked. Or how she giggled when a funny commercial came on. I could've sat on the love seat and watch her all day long..

I finished putting away the groceries, but I decided to keep the plastic bags for later use- old habit I guess. I remembered my mom doing that, she always ended up reusing them anyways so.. it couldn't hurt. I shoved all the plastic bags into one big one and put them in the cabinet under the sink.

"Hey Ness?.." I asked crossing into the living room. I slumped down next to her, and put my feet up on the coffee table, another habit of mine.

She kept her eyes glued to the tv screen and picked up her foot brushing mine away. "Off."

"Ugh.." I sighed. I took my feet off lazily.

Nessie sighed and muted the tv, and she turned to face me bundled in her blankets. She knew I could do that for her, I swear I think she was teasing me.

"Okay Jacob, what do you want?" She chuckled, and leaned forward to place the remote back on the coffee table, then she turned all of her attention towards me.

"Actually, I was wondering if you could help me unpack before we go out tonight." I smiled. "And don't try and get out of it, because a quarter of this crap is yours."

"Crap?" she raised her eyebrows at me. "For your information, Jacob Black, this crap is my stuff." She shoved my shoulder.

I winced and rubbed my shoulder. "Ow Ness.. jeez."

She scuffled and rolled her eyes.

"That wasn't very lady like." I chuckled. "I thought I taught you manners."

"I'll show you manners." She threw the blanket off her and jumped on me, throwing my back down against the cushions.

"What the hell are you doing kid?!" I tried to get her off me, but she wouldn't budge.

Easy Jake.. easy.

"Beating you up." She straddled my waist, and tickled my sides.

I didn't know I was ticklish.

"Seriously stop it Nessie." I chuckled. "Come on hun stop it." I tried to brush her hands away, but she managed to squirm her hands away from mine.

"Okay fine." She snatched her hands away from my sides, and rested them atop my chest.

Hands to yourself Jacob. My conscience was telling me. But I had another voice telling me to do otherwise. So, I uh.. put my hands around the small of her back.

Her eyes widened a bit, I wanted to pull my hands away, but her face relaxed into a smile, so I didn't move. She was so soft, and she smelt amazing. Her body fit perfectly into my arms, every curve aligned with me.. oh God it was the greatest thing in the world.

"Jacob.. I've been meaning to tell you something.." Her hands rested against my chest patting and stroking away nervously. I took my hands away from her waist and took her hands into mine stroking them gently.

"Yeah?" I whispered. I looked up at her, and she smiled gently. I saw the heat rush to her face, it was the most beautiful thing I ever seen.

"Um.. I uh.." She sighed heavily, and pulled her hands away from mine.

I looked at her completely confused. Did I do something wrong?.. Great. At least I was god at something.

"Spit it out Ness." I chuckled attempting to lighten the mood. Why did everything have to get so damn intense with these Cullen's?

She cleared her throat and mumbled something, but I didn't hear it. I scrunched my eyebrows together and she rolled her eyes, and she repeated in a higher whisper.

"I love you."

I think I was going into shock. I felt like every nerve in my body was on fire, like I was flying. My heart stopped, and my breath caught.

Renesmee Carlie Cullen, just told me that she loved me.. me, Jacob Black.

"Jacob?" She looked at me concerned.

For once, I couldn't say anything. For once I shut up. I was frozen, my thoughts were scattered of everything and anything having to do with her. I was on cloud nine right about now.

"Erum.. happy." I mumbled, I felt numb, in a good way.

"What?" She chuckled.

"Happy. I. Am. Happy." I managed to say.

She chuckled and buried her head in my chest, trying to hide her embaressment.

"Dont- dont hide." Still numb.

She chuckled into my chest, I felt the heat linger against my shirt.

"Jacob?" She stroke my cheek.

I saw it then. All of it. The way she felt when I touched her. How she smiled when I told her she looked beautiful. Everything, every last detail of my relationship with her, from when she started having strong feelings for me, she showed me.

How the hell could I have been so blind?! I deserved a punch in the face.. maybe Bella could-

"Jacob? Jacob your killing me over here.. say something.." A very shaky Ness awoke me from my daydreaming.

"I always have." I whispered, I looked up at her and stroked her cheek. She smiled and rested her small face into my palm. She smiled and closed her eyes, and sighed happily.

"Mmm.. always have what?"

"I always loved you Ness, ever since-"

"I turned sixteen?" She finished my sentence.

Sixteen was a good estimate I guess.

I nodded. "Why.. why didn't you tell me?"

"I don't know." She shrugged. "I guess I was scared.." She sighed.

"You don't have to be afraid Renesmee." She knew I was serious, whenever I was, I said her full.. long.. name. "I would never hurt you, I wouldn't dream of it."

That must've soothed her because she relaxed a little bit.

"What are you thinking?" I whispered.

Nessie smiled down at me warmly. She stroke my cheek again and I saw how she blushed when I was with her at the grocery store this morning. How she felt when I was over protective of her with the cashier. Or how her breath caught when I touched her, lifting her up in the aisle.

She didn't need to show me for the second time. I grabbed her face in my palms, and pulled her face against mine.

I kissed her roughly, passionately. I wanted her to know that I loved her. She was stiff at first, but immediately recovered and kissed me back just as passionately. My hands wrapped tightly around her waist, and I pulled her closer to me.

She pulled away and rested her head against my chest, and I began stroking her long hair.

"Jacob?"

"Hm?" I asked completely dazed.

"I don't want to go hunting tonight, I changed my mind." She said matter-of-factly.

"Oh?" I kissed her head.

"Yeah, maybe we could do something." She said, snuggling closer to me.

"Hm, we can go out on the river, then visit the family if you'd like."

The family. I was still trying to get used to that.

"Hmm.. Thad be nice." She sighed. I think she yawned.

"Alright."

"Jacob?" She asked again, she was getting sleepy, I could tell by how her breathing deepened.

"Yes, Nessie?" I whispered.

"This is going to be the best summer.." She breathed in my scent, apparently it didn't bother her like it bothered everyone else, she actually liked it. "of my life." She sighed, I glanced down at her, and her eyes were already closed. "I want to do everything with you.. I want to spend all my time with you, and only you." She said in her sleep.

I let her drift off then, I didn't dare move for two reasons. One she was peacefully asleep and I didn't want to wake her. Two, because I was in pure bliss right now and there was no way in hell that I would move, I didn't want to. I could've stayed like this all day, just holding her in my arms while she slept. Besides, I was her own personal heater, I smirked at the thought.

Today was amazing, I mean I let my guard down around her, and look at what happened.. She finally confessed that she loved me.. no- she loved me all along.

Could this day get any bit crazier? Was I freakin' dreaming?! I had to me. This had to be a dream. The most beautiful girl in the world.. just told me that she loved me. She loved me, not some random boy like Andrew, not some lame boy band like the Jonas Brothers.. me, all me.

She was mine, all mine. I never loved anyone more in my life- yes I mean that.. no need to get a blast from the past. I didn't know anything back then, but I know a hell-of-a-lot now. I wasn't sure about a lot of things in life, but I was one thousand percent sure that I was in love with Renesmee Cullen.

Maybe this move was a good thing- not that I didn't want to move in the first place. Sure I left behind people I loved.. but it wasn't the end of the world? We were all still a family, and I'd see them again soon enough, I shouldn't even be thinking about it anyways.

I smiled as I held Nessie close, I hoped she would get plenty of rest out of her little nap, 'cause as soon as she wakes up I would love to get these boxes unpacked.. so it could actually look like a home of some sort.

I bet her family is already unpacked by now, I wouldn't be surprised if their home looked like they've lived there all their lives. I mean come on were talking about the Cullen's.

I couldn't help but think about Bella and Edward.. and what they were doing right now- well okay I had an idea of what they were doing. Ew, mental image. Okay- but I mean yeah.. Second honey moon right? That's what your supposed to do.

I kinda wondered how they'd react when they'd see how uh.. close?.. Nessie and I got while they were away. I imagined Bella pouncing on me again, or Edward getting all in my face like the over-protective father he was. But then again.. they knew this was going to happen someday. They knew I imprinted on her, and did nothing but love and protect her ever since, so they had to give me some credit here, especially since she loves me back.

I didn't worry about the others though. I'm sure Alice somewhat saw a blurry outcome of all this, and was bouncing up and down. I was positive that Emmett got money out of Jasper making a bet on Alice. (I've learned to never do that, the hard way.) I bet Esme and Carlisle were just thrilled. And as for that Blondie, I bet she just rolled her eyes.

I actually liked Rose. She was kinda like a sister to me.

Oh god I know what your thinking.I would've said the same thing a few months ago. EW!

But if you think about it.. we protected Nessie. We raised her while Bella was unable to. I guess we bonded that way. But hey- that doesn't mean I still didn't make fun of her, and she still didn't give me threat-less threats.. if that makes any sense.

Anyways, back to Edward and Bella. I'm sure they'd call tomorrow or something to check on Nessie, since they didn't end up calling today. (One of the first things Esme made sure of my condo, was that it had a phone installed immediately for emergencies, and to keep in contact. I couldn't thank her enough, 'cause I didn't even think about that.)

You know, despite my.. uh 'history' with Bella, things weren't really weird to be honest. Sure she was would technically be considered my mother-in-law, and Edward my father, but I didn't look at them that way. I cant really explain it.. you just gotta believe me on that one.

Even though they were just.. Bella and Edward, doesn't mean I wasn't a little, I don't know; worried? For the lack of a better word. I mean, they were the parents of the girl I loved. Normally telling the parents of the girl you loved, that you loved her, would be intimidating. But then again.. nothing about my life, or the Cullen's was normal. So I guess I had nothing to worry about in that department. The Cullen's were very open minded.. I mean come on, they were friends with us, their 'enemy', and considered us as a part of their family.

The more I thought about it, the less I worried. 'Sides, they all knew this was going to happen, especially with Alice on their side, despite Nessie's blurry future. Bella seemed like she didn't care. She implied that she'd rather have it be me, then someone else, which I could live with. Edward on the other hand, considered me his brother, and wanted nothing more I guess.

So, I think it's safe to say, that I'm in the safe zone right about now. I just couldn't help but think about it, since you know, Bella pounced on me and all.. then again she was under so much stress at the time, but still.

Sometime this summer, probably when they call.. (I cant keep this a secret very long- neither can Alice) I'd tell her parents about us.. about how I feel about her.

Nessie slept soundlessly atop of me, her face rested on my chest, and her hands managed to slide under me; hugging me to her. I rested my cheek against her head, and took in her scent. Even though she was part of them, she still smelt amazing, at least I thought so. She smelt sweet, but sour at the same time. It was the sexiest scent ever. Too sexy for a Victoria's Secret body spray, yeah.. that sexy.

I started to drift off, and I let my eyes close. I let sleep and my dreams over took me. I could see it now..

"Mom.. Dad.. Jacob and I have something to tell you." Nessie held my hand, and I squeezed it, my way of supporting her.

"Go on sweetheart." Edward crooned, his arms wrapped around Bella.

"Well.. see.." She bit her lip.

"Yes?" Bella pushed.

"I'm in love with Jacob."

The dream then, became a blur.
