Growing Up Chapter 7

A/N – I am so sorry for the long wait for this chapter, but I have been really lazy lately. Also, rehearsals for this years school musical that I have been busy lately. Anyway, I hope you all had a happy holiday! Now for Chapter 7!!!! (By the way, I am not Stephenie Meyer and I don't have to do everything the way she does it in the book. I am my own person and I have my own imagination, which I have put into this story. I f any of you have a problem with that, then you can stop reading it. Thank you.)

"You won't be affected as much as Bella was by you, since you are half vampire, but you will still be affected. Also, we know what to expect this time and how to handle it.", Carlisle was explaining to me.

We were all in the living room together. Ian and I were curled up on the couch, my mom and dad were on the other side, Carlisle was perched on the edge of the coffee table with Esme sitting next to him, and everyone else was standing randomly throughout the room with the person they loved standing next to them.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Who is it? I mentally ask my dad.

"Jacob", he says as an answer. "He wants to talk to me. I'll be right back."

What's going on? I think. Why does Jacob want to talk to you?

"Don't worry about it, Ness. We're just going to talk."

"OK"

Edward's Pov.

I got up and walked to the door and opened it. Jacob was standing there.

"Hello, Jacob. What is it you wanted to talk about?", I asked. I decided it was best if I closed the door behind me.

"Do you mind if we some where so your family can't hear us? I wouldn't be surprised if Bella and Alice were listening to us through the door."

"I think so, too, considering Bella is using her power to shield Alice's thoughts"

"Shoot", I hear them say at the same time. Jacob and I start laughing.

"Come on, let's go", I say.

Jacob and I go down the steps and don't stop until we are out of hearing range of the house.

"So?" I ask.

"I need your help", he replies.

"With what?"

"To not kill Ian. I want to help Nessie and killing Ian would just make her sad."

"Sure, I'll help you."

"Thanks, lets go back"

We went back to the house, and as soon as we got inside, everyone thought different variations of ' What was that about?' at the same time.

"Like I said before, Jacob and I just talked, that's it.

I could tell no one believed me, but it was the truth.

"Um...Nessie? Can I talk to you alone?", Ian asks.

"Sure, I know just the place", she says as they walked out of the room together.

I couldn't believe what he was going to tell her.

Nessie's Pov.

I decided to take Ian to my tunnels. When we got there, I jumped on top of the main tunnel and sit down, I then start patting the place next to me and say,

"Why don't you sit up here with me?"

"OK", he says and sits down.

"So what did you want to talk about?", I ask.

"I wanted to tell you my power"

"What is it?"

"Well, there's a story that goes with it, but you're not going to like it"

"Tell me anyway." Now he had me curious. What was so bad about his power?

"Well, my power is , when I kiss a girl, they fall in love with me"

"Wait a minute...does that mean?" Now it makes since why I thought he was Jacob for a second in Italy. I really do love Jacob.

"I'm afraid so", he says. "But let me tell you the rest."

"This had better be good"

"When my dad figured out my power, he created a plan to get you and the rest of your family to join the volturri. He decided that if you fell in love with me, the rest of your family would join him. Then when I meet you, I fell in love with you. So I told my dad I loved you and that I wouldn't go along with him any more and asked him to leave. I'm really sorry, Nessie. Please believe me."

"I do believe you, I just don't trust you.", I say. I jumped down from the tunnel then and ran toward my house. When I got there, I ran straight upstairs and into my room. Downstairs, I heard my dad say,

"Ian told her his power."

"And what is his power?" My mom asked.

"When he kisses girls, they fall in love with him"

A little while later, there was a knock on my door.

"Nessie, It's me. Let me in.", I hear Jacob say.

"Go away", I answer. I knew he could hear the sobs in my voice.

The door opens. Shoot, I had forgotten to lock the door.

Jacob comes in and sits on the chair next to my bed. I turn on my side so he can't see how badly I was crying.

"Are you OK?, he asks.

"No", I say. He then picks me up and puts me on his lap.

"Go ahead and cry", he said. "He was a jerk to do that to you."

I don't know how long we stayed there like that, but it seemed like forever. I just couldn't seem to stop crying. There were two things t decided while I was sitting there. One, I loved Jacob more than anyone in the world, and two, I wanted revenge on Ian.
