CHAPTER 9 ~ DATE

Jacob P.O.V

I woke up the next morning, and I was really tired. I was still in my jeans; I was too tired last night to take them off. I looked at my clock. It was almost lunchtime. Nessie would be awake by now, wouldn't she? I picked up the phone and dialled her number. She picked up after a few rings.

"Hello?"

"Hey Nessie."

"Jake! Hi!"

"I was wondering… are you busy tonight?" I asked her.

"No… why?"

"Well, I wanted to know if you want to come and see a movie or something."

"Yeah that sounds great!" She said.

"Ok! So, is 6 ok? I'll pick you up and then we can go have dinner."

"I'll see you then!" She said. We hung up and I walked into the kitchen. My dad was sitting in his chair, eating his breakfast.

"So you're going out tonight?" He asked.

"Yeah. I told Renesmee everything last night." I said.

"Good for you. Have fun tonight." He said.

I changed into some shorts and ran outside. Embry, Seth and Quil were all standing in front of me.

"Hi guys." I said.

"Hey." Embry said.

"What's up?" I asked.

"You're going out tonight, apparently that's up." Quil said, with an annoyed look on his face.

"How did you hear about that?"

"Why did you tell Embry about Nessie, and not me?" Quil asked. He seemed to be the only one pissed off. Seth and Embry looked fine with it.

"Embry was there, that's why he knows. And I haven't seen you since, so give me a break!" I told him. Quil came over and gave me a hug.

"Little Jakey's growing up! He's finally got a girlfriend!" He said in a baby voice. I pushed him away.

"Shut up! It's not my fault it took her this long… and you can't talk, you're girlfriend's five!" The other two laughed.

"Shut up, you guys!" Quil whined. He hated it when we teased him about Claire.

"Well we came over to make sure you were ready for tonight." Embry said.

"What are you gonna wear?" Seth asked.

"Um, a t-shirt, and some jeans?" I said.

"Oh no, it's worst than we thought!" Embry said.

"Didn't you buy a nice shirt when you went out with Nessie and Alice? Why don't you wear that?" Quil told me.

"And don't wear the jeans you wear every other day, wear some new ones, preferably ones that don't have a rip or a stain on them." Seth said. I nodded, trying to take it all in.

"And when you pick her up, give her something, like… flowers! She likes tulips, right?" Embry said.

"And you have to take that thing off, it's gonna make you look weird." Quil said, pointing to my sling.

"Well, the doc said I could take it off today so…" I started.

"Perfect! We'll come over at five to help you with everything! See ya." Embry said, as they all left.

I went back inside and thought about all of the things the guys said to me. I got out all of my clothes and then had a shower. I got dressed and put on a new pair of jeans and the shirt I brought when I was shopping with Nessie and Alice. I took off my sling, and messed up my hair, just as Nessie liked it. The guys came back when they said they would, and they told me things to say and do on the date.

"Ok, it's ten to six, you better go." Embry told me. I got up and went to get my things. We all walked outside.

"Good luck!" Quil said. They all hi-fived me and walked off into the trees. I got in my rabbit and drove to Nessie's place.

I drove up the long driveway and stopped in front of the huge house. I could hear people talking inside; I walked up the stairs and rang the doorbell. Nessie came and opened the door.

She looked so beautiful. She was wearing a cute blue dress, and her hair and makeup was done up.

"Hey, you're out of your sling!" She said as she pointed at my arm.

"Yeah, I still need to stay with the plaster on for another week. It's healing faster than we thought though!" I handed her the flowers. "These are for you. I know that tulips are your favourite." She smelt them.

"Jacob, they're beautiful, thank you!" She gave me a big hug. She handed the flowers to Esme, said a quick goodbye to everyone, and then we headed out of the door, holding hands.

I took her to a beautiful Italian restaurant for dinner. We talked for what seemed like hours, and then we headed off to see a movie. We saw a romantic comedy, which left us in a pretty good mood. We walked out of the cinema, still hand in hand.

"So, where are we going now?" She asked. It was only 9.00, still pretty early. She was due home by 10.00.

"It's a surprise." I said, grinning. When we got to our destination I made her close her eyes. We walked through the forest, and when we got to the clearing I took my hand off her eyes. I took her to the meadow. Our meadow. It looked so much different at night. The light from the moon shone over it, and it made everything a faint shade of silver. We lay down in the grass and looked up at the stars.

"We've come here so many times and looked at the clouds, I thought we could come and look at the stars instead." I said. "And I know heaps on constellations, and all of their stories, so I thought I could tell you some."

"I'd love that, thank you." She said.

We stargazed for almost an hour. I told her about all the different stars that we could see. I said that each one had its own meaning and story.

We lost track of time, and quickly headed off home when we realised we only had 10 minutes to get home.

When we arrived at the house we sat in the car for a couple of minutes, not saying anything.

"I had fun tonight, thank you." Nessie finally said.

"I had fun too." I got out of the car and opened her door for her. I grabbed her hand and walked her to the front door. Before she opened it I gave me a kiss on the cheek. She looked towards the window to see Alice looking at us.

"I'll see you tomorrow. Goodnight." I told her.

"Night." She opened the door and walked inside.
