Chapter 9
Pressure
I walked into the house and sat down in the dining room. It was the only place with enough room to fit everybody.
"I have decided." I said in a whisper knowing they could hear even that.
The vampires came down first. Carlisle, Esme, Emmet, Rosalie, Jasper, Alice, Edward, Bella, Renesmee, Kaleb, Lance, Medea, Jayme, Jayden, Loraine, Loreda, Shiloh, Tala, Marina, Owen. Then the werewolves came. Sam, Jared, Paul, Jacob, Embry, Quil, Leah, Seth, Brady, and lastly Collin came down. I waited until all thirty-one of us were in the room.
"Collin and Lance gave me a choice," I started, "They said I had to choose a mate, either him or him." I said pointing them out, restating the facts even though I knew that they had all been eavesdropping.
"And I chose," I stopped.
"Well!" shouted Rosalie.
I still hesitated with my answer, so in response, Emmet started to bang on the table-top in an impronptu drum-roll.
After about ten seconds of this, the pressure finally got to me, "Neither!" I screamed at them.
"What!" Lance and Collin yelled at the same time.
"I'm sorry! But I'm just not ready for this. You have to give me more time! I just can't decide, not right now." I said looking down at my feet as I whisper/screamed and waiting for thier reactions.
Everybody was quiet until... "Well Renesmee time to go to sleep." Bella said.
I stared at her confused until she looked up again with Renesmee in her arms.
"Well you have obviously thought about this and I for one respect your decision. If Lance and Collin both love you they will not contest your decision and they will let you be as you are."
Then she and Edward ran into the forest with a sleeping Renesmee in her arms.
"Well we must bid you goodbye, it is time for us to be getting home." Said Kaleb
The werewolves also said goodbye and went on their way back to La Push. Then my coven filed out the door and we ran home.
