Chapter 9
Renesmee POV
Alice and I walked down the stairs in silence and as we passed Jacob and his friends I soon felt sad. We seemed to get along so well why had he looked at me like that before? Was it something I had done or hadn't done? Did he get offended when I didn't say good bye before the movie and ran over to Alice? Maybe I should apologise, I didn't want this to be the last time we would see each other, but I couldn't help but wonder why as we walk out of the theatre. Why did he have such a huge influence on me and why did I want him to accept me so badly. I wanted us to be friends at least anything more would be a gift. I didn't love him but I wanted to. I just didn't know him well enough for me to have feelings that great yet.
"Hey Renesmee wait up!" Jacob said grabbing my hand. He looked worried and searched my eyes as if an answer a waited him there. I was mad at him for the look he had given me before but that all soon melted away with his touch. "Look I'm sorry about before that look wasn't meant for you, I had just smelt something off and well you saw my reaction. I know I hurt your feelings and now I feel like crap because of it so please ease my pain by going out with me."
I stood there in shock for a little while. I had never had a guy do this before. I have had a few ask me out but none admit they were wrong or say sorry for something they had done. He looked worried again and I began to worry if by not replying straight away made him think I hated him.
"I would love to." I said sincerely.
"Really?" He said as a smile began to grow on his face.
"Really," I said smiling to.
"Um, what day are you free next?" Jacob asked dropping my hand beside me.
"I'm free after twelve on Wednesday?" I asked unsure if that was okay.
"That's great so I'll pick you up from work?" Jacob ask as he scratched the his neck.
"That would be fine." I smiling at how cute Jacob looked he seemed so happy.
"It's settled then I'll pick you up at twelve on Wednesday from your work." Jacob said beginning to slowly walk away and as he finished his sentence he turned and ran over to his friends. They all seemed confused but I guess Jacob told them what was going on as I saw their expressions change.
I turned to Alice and saw that she was confused. She would have just heard everything that had just gone on but no idea why.
"It's okay I know him." I said happy that Jacob also desired to be more that just friends. In return Alice just gave me a look that translated 'I know' but maybe I was confused she hadn't met him before and I hadn't told her about him before at the diner so how did she know? Maybe dad told her? Who knows?
We walked into the house and I ran straight up to my room, I desired sleep and some time alone. I hope you heard that dad, I want time alone. Well you could come and talk to me since you will find out any way but only you. I changed into my pyjamas and walked into the bathroom to brush my teeth. I tried to stop thinking about Jacob but my thoughts slipped. I knew dad had heard a few things but not everything so he was going to be waiting for me. I rinsed my mouth and walked into my room to find my dad sitting on the edge of my bed just as I had suspected.
"I guess you just know me to well kid." Dad said smiling, "So you going to show me what happened at the movies?" I just smiled and walked over to him. I took his hand and started from the beginning. I showed him that stupid blonde kid and Jake saving me. I showed him Jake's expression but not the movie as it went a little long. I then went on to showing him the conversation Jacob and I had after the movies.
"So?" I asked unsure of what dad would think.
"Looks like this guy has feelings for you." Dad said a little annoyed.
"Dad just cause he's from the reservation doesn't mean he's a wolf." I told dad, since he had a thing against them.
"Um Nessie he's pretty big I'm sure he's a wolf and I don't have anything against the wolves as they helped us all a long time ago but there is one I do have a problem with." Dad said.
"Who?" I asked unsure of what to think.
"Never mind..." Dad said. I hated it when he did that. You all know who my wolf is don't you and you guys aren't telling me! I bet that's the wolf you don't like as well!
"We might know..." Dad admitted. "And by the way if you are going out with Jacob and then you find this wolf of yours what are you going to do?"
"Hey just because this wolf is in my dreams doesn't mean he's the love of my life." Dad laughed at what I said, what am I missing? My dad usually replied to this but he just kissed my forehead and left me in peace. I wriggled into my covers and turned off my lamp beside my bed. I soon found sleep and slept peacefully without dreams.
I pulled into the car park and saw Tracy and Ben waiting for me outside. Tracy was eighteen and Ben was nineteen. They were both together and both total pranksters. Tracy had dark brown hair, green eyes and she was a head taller than me and was as thin as a stick. Ben was just as tall as Tracy but was a heavy build; he wasn't anywhere near as buff as Jacob but he was still pretty big. Ben had dusty blonde hair and hazel eyes. They looked rather cute together even though it looked slightly off. They were both already working here when I started and both helped me get used to things. I rather liked them both; they were both really cool friends.
"Well, look who's one minute late." Ben said greeting me as I got out of the car.
"Ohhh, one minute late, bad Renesmee." I said walking over to them.
"Ben, get off her back," Tracy said poking Ben's arm.
"I'm not on her back; I'm leaning on the wall." Ben said in a childish tone. I laughed at them both before walking into the diner. They soon followed and continued with the joking. I grabbed my apron and put it over my black skinny jeans and two shirts. One was a white tank top and the other was a red and black over shirt with the sleeves rolled up to my elbows. I took off my beanie and shook the water off, I chose my outfit today against Alice's will. But I didn't care I was comfortable.
Today was Tuesday which meant all I was going to be thinking about was tomorrow and what I was going to be doing with Jacob. That was the problem he didn't tell me what we were doing on this date so I didn't know what to wear tomorrow. It didn't matter, though, I'm sure I would have fun despite what I would wear. I thought of Sunday and smiled without effort.
"What or who are you thinking about?" Tracy said putting her arm around my shoulder.
"Nothing," I said trying to hide my smile.
"No there's something going on I know it." Ben said joining the conversation.
"Ok well I have a date tomorrow, with this guy named Jacob." I said biting my bottom lip.
"And why didn't you tell me this yesterday?" Tracy said a little annoyed.
"Um, this place was pretty packed yesterday. I didn't really get a word in about anything let alone about my date tomorrow." I explain recalling the masses of people.
"Well go Renesmee! She got a date in the first weeks of moving here, that's pretty good." Ben said tugging on one of my plats before greeting the customer that just walked in. And soon after Ben had seated that person people began to flow into the diner.
