Edward's POV

Jacob parked in front of the Cullen house which seemed to be vacant.

J: This is where you live?

E: Mm-hm. (He smirked)

J: This isn't even a house!

E: Carlisle has been working and saving for centuries and so have we at one time or another so we use it to live comfortably.

J: That's smart. I should probably leave before your family comes out.

E: They're not here but they'll probably be back at any moment.

J: Why are you so calm all the time?

E: I've had years and years to work on my composure.

J: Oh how I hate you sometimes.

E: Thank you.

J: With all the craziness today, I forgot to ask you if you enjoyed yourself.

E: I did, the Reservation is a very beautiful place and LaPush beach is just exceptional and I'm pretty sure Carly did too because she passed out as soon as I put her into the car.

J: Yeah she did, she loved jumping down the cliff and said that we had to force you to jump with us the next time we go.

E: The next time huh?

J: Hopefully. (He smiled)

E: I can get behind that.

J: Yeah.

...

E: Uh, I think that I should get her into bed.

J: Yeah and I think I'll hit the road before your sister gets here.

E: I agree but you'll have to meet her on Saturday.

J: But then I'll have a valid reason why I'm here and I'll be surrounded so she won't be able to kill me.

E: That's smart.

J: I guess that I have to go now.

E: Mm-hm, I'll give you a call later on.

J: Okay.

Edward got Carly out of the back of the car while Jacob got her bag and put it around Edward's shoulder. Jacob watched as Edward carried his daughter into the house before getting in and driving away.

...

Edward's family slowly started coming home about fifteen minutes after Jacob drove away.

A: You're alive! (She cheered when she saw Edward)

E: Of course I am, I didn't go to the Reservation to be massacred.

A: I know but both yours and Carly's future were blurry then it would go away and come back blurry after a while again. The same thing happened when you went into Forks yesterday.

E: Maybe it has something to do with Jacob and him being a werewolf.

A: Yeah I guess so. We're meant to be enemies so it wouldn't be fair if I could see their future's too.

E: You've got a point there.

A: So how was your day?

E: It was really, really nice but you'll have to wait for everyone before I can go into detail because I don't want to repeat myself.

A: Fine. (She huffed)

Rosalie and Emmett were the last ones of the family to arrive.

R: Where's Carly? Is she okay?

E: She's asleep and she's absolutely fine. She enjoyed herself quite a lot today.

R: I won't believe that until I hear it from her myself.

E: Believe me, she'll tell you all about it when she wakes up.

C: Edward, now that everyone is here care to share what happened at the meeting.

E: The werewolves are really nice and Jacob's father Billy is just the best, Carlisle. (He smiled) The Elders were a bit cold towards me when they first arrived but that had more to do with the fact that I am a vampire and they thought that the reason I was getting close to Jacob was so that I could somehow get him to change the treaty. They thought you had sent me because you were unhappy with the treaty but I cleared it all up. They were a bit surprised to tell you the truth but I told them that my only motive was being friends with Jacob and Billy even back me up on that.

C: It sounds like it all went well then?

E: It did, I wish you guys could see the Reservation. I'm definitely going to ask because it is really beautiful and I would love for you all to see it.

Es: Did you talk to them about the barbeque?

E: Yes. A few of them were worried about werewolves and vampires socializing...

R: So am I.

E: Noted but Billy convinced them all. Billy's just the best, Carlisle you'll love him.

Em: As much as or more than you love your future father-in-law?

E: Father in... what? Emmett, no. (He warned causing the entire family to laugh)

Ja: I have to agree with Emmett's assessment though, brother.

E: Billy's really nice. He's in a wheelchair but he doesn't let that get him down.

C: I would certainly like to meet him.

E: He's coming on Saturday.

Es: Good. I'll go shopping for what I need tomorrow.

E: You can take Carly alone.

Es: Really.

E: Yes, she'll definitely enjoy it.

R: Then I'm coming along too.

Es: I can take care of my granddaughter, Rose.

R: I know but I just like spending time with her.

Es: Okay.

The Cullen's did their own thing for the rest of the night and then Edward went to the border at five. He and Jacob sat around talking and even took a walk to the ravine. Edward felt like Jacob was holding something back but didn't want to be too forward by asking so he just let it go for the time ebing. Jacob invited Edward to go patrolling with him the following night and Edward immediately agreed. They would be meeting the following night at 2 a.m.

...

E: I can't believe Sam actually said it's okay for me to be here because he's suck a stickler for rules and all.

J: "I know I was too. I went to him expecting a no that I didn't even realise that he had said yes"

E: So what do you do when you're out here patrolling?

J: "I have the South side tonight so I just walk up and down making sure that everything is in place. We have to protect our people, sometimes we come across hunters and then we have to stay clear, make sure that they don't see us and inform the others to be careful"

E: Through your mental link?

J: "Yes and rouge vampires we chase and kill"

E: Just like that?

J: "No, the council would have our heads but if there are reports of unusual deaths around here and we're on high alert then we kill any foreign vamps around here, especially if they have golden eyes"

E: Have you met any other vampires with golden eyes?

J: "No, your eyes are unique. You're my first"

They continued talking and walking the length of the South of the Quileute grounds until the sun came out and then they had to part ways.

E: I'll see you in a couple of hours.

J: "Can't wait"

...

Everyone was busy doing some thing or another for the barbeque that they were having later when Edward arrived so he quickly went up to go wake Carly up because he knew that she would hate missing out on helping with the prep.

...

E: What can I help with? (He asked coming down the stairs with Carly on his back)

Ca: And me also.

A: You can come and help me get out all the utensils that we'll be needing.

C: Are other people going to be eating with me?

E: Remember that I told you that Jacob and his friends are coming over for a visit.

Ca: Oh yeah, is grandpapa Billy coming too?

C: Grandpapa Billy?

Ca: He said that I can call him that. I asked him and he said okay, it's okay right grandpa?

C: Of course it is.

Ca: So is grandpapa also coming?

E: Yes he is.

Ca: Okay, let me down then so that I can go help aunt Ally.

E: One day it's aunt Ally and the other day it's aunt Alice, you're a crazy little girl you.

Ca: I'm not crazy, daddy. (She says stomping off into the kitchen)

Around 9 a.m. everyone gathered in the living room after having finished all the prep that they could.

Es: I think you guys should go feeding because you haven't gone in a while and we don't want any incidents later today.

C: Edward you should go too. Esme' and I went yesterday so we can take care of Carly and if Jacob and his friends arrived then we'll make sure that they're comfortable until you get here.

E: And what about Carly, are you still okay sweetheart?

Ca: Yes daddy.

E: But the last time you had anything was a month ago.

C: She's still small Edward so her need isn't that severe and she eats food which helps take the edge off a little.

E: Okay, I'll go with.

Ca: Bye daddy, enjoy yourself.

E: I will sweetheart.

She said goodbye to her aunts and uncles before they all left. Esme' made her a quick breakfast. Carlisle was in the office when they heard cars parking outside. Carly ran to the door closely followed by Esme'.

Esme' opened the door and Carly ran over and jumped on Jacob.

Ca: Jacob! You're here.

J: Yes I am, darling. Are you happy to see me?

Ca: Yes I am. This is my grandma Esme' Cullen.

J: Nice to meet you.

Es: It's a pleasure to finally meet you.

C: It feels like we already know you based on everything that Carly and Edward have told us. Carlisle, nice to meet you.

J: Likewise.

Billy and the rest of the werewolves came in an introductions were made before they all moved into the living room.

C: It's nice to have you all here, the kids will be here in the next 10-15 minutes. We sent them to feed.

B: That's okay, we wouldn't want them to be hungry or thirsty while we're stuffing our faces.

C: That's exactly what I thought.

Es: Boys, I want you guys to be comfortable here. You all made Edward feel comfortable when he was at the Reservation and I want to return the favour. There are snacks in the kitchen and I'm sure Emmett will start the fire for the barbeque when he gets here.

P: We can get it started for them.

Es: It's okay, you don't have to.

P: I know but it'll give us something to do for now.

Es; Well in that case, let me show you where everything is set up.

All the wolves except Jacob and Sam followed Esme' to the back door.

Ca: Do you want to see how my room looks like Jacob?

J: Huh. What will your dad say if he sees me in your room, Miss Carly?

Ca: Stop being silly Jacob, come one.

J: Yes ma'am.

...

S: I'm going to make sure that they don't cause any trouble. (He says walking towards the back door)

C: I've heard a lot of wonderful things about you, Billy.

B: Likewise. My grandfather spoke very highly of you. He was very impressed that the two of you got along so well given that you were a vampire and all.

C: I guess that the same could be said about our son's.

B: Yes indeed. (He smiled)

Carlisle pushed Billy towards the back where everyone else was.

...

Carly showed Jacob her room and couldn't stop talking about everything inside of it and then took him to the room next to hers.

...

The werewolves were out back finally settled when the vampires arrived. They all went around back and Edward made all the necessary introductions before looking around expectantly.

Em: What are you looking for?

E: Jacob and uh... Carly.

Es: Carly was busy showing him her room.

E: Okay, I'll go find him, I mean them. (He said running off into the house)

Em: He's whipped.

P: Yes he is.

Es: Leave him alone boys.

...

Em: I think that you can move aside so that I can take over here.

P: What makes you think that I'll trust you with cooking meat when all you eat is raw no, you just drink blood. No way.

Em: But I'm the best.

P: Nah, that's me.

S: Why don't you both just do it? (He asks rubbing his hand over his face)

Em & P: Fine. (They both grumbled)

Ja: Good boys.

...

Edward found Jacob and Carly in his room going through his records.

Ca; Daddy has a lot of boring music. I don't like it but he does and he plays the piano real good too.

J: Really?

E: Yes I do. (He smiled going in)

J: Edward. (He gasped)

E: Nice to see you two are enjoying my room and my music isn't boring Carly.

Ca: Yes it is.

J: You have a nice room, I love the view.

E: It is the best. So what are the two of you doing up here.

Ca: I showed Jacob my room and then yours daddy.

J: They're both really nice. (He smiled)

...

The little group joined the family downstairs and they enjoyed the rest of the afternoon getting to know each other and just having fun.
