Nessie climbed on my back as we sped into the forest. She kept her hand placed on my cheek the whole time, replaying the events from the earlier days.

She showed my the diving contest, with Uncle Emmett acting funny. She showed the first campfire with her family. She loved to be held by her loved ones, she loved the cool miracle of our skin.

I let her down when we came upon a herd of deer. "Ugh." Renesmee made a sound of disapproval.

"I know exactly how you feel." Edward groaned along with her.

"You could always try another baby bottle Nessie." I teased her.

She gave me a look of pure horror before chasing off after one of the deer. Edward and I followed at our own pace.

"What are you thinking?" He asked as we drifted through the woods after our daughter.

"Just about Jake." I told him truthfully. "Oh and what exactly is bothering concerning Jacob Black?" He casually asked me.

"Well Nessie just misses him so much. They talked on the phone this morning though. It made her a little happier. I just know it hurts both of them to be away from each other. Just like it hurts you and I." I explained.

Looking down at me, Edward gave me a look I had never seen before from him. "Oh, I see." Was all he muttered. "I guess I'm worrying to much again." I sighed. "It's all right. Nessie is fine. She'll see him soon enough." He reassured me. "Your right. You almost always are." I whispered. I kissed him softly on his neck.

After Renesmee was finished hunting, we made our way back to the others. When we were back in ear shot of them, we heard that the boys were discussing our plans for the day.

"Lets race in teams!" Emmett excitedly proposed. "Or race boys against girls!" He giddily jumped up and down.

"Naw, it's always boys vs. girls!" Alice complained. "And whats the point anyway, we always beat you." Rosalie sneered at the boys.

"Gee Rose! It was just an idea!" Jasper said, defending Emmett.

"I don't think that they will let Nessie ride by herself, so we need to decide who's going to ride with her." Carlisle interjected.

"Your right, I she can ride with me." Esme said.

"That sounds like a good idea, that is if you really don't mind Esme." I said.

"Not at all. Either way, our team will win." Esme smiled.

"No. I think you have it all wrong. I'm going to be a beast at racing." Emmett gloated.

"Sure you are. Sure you are." Alice replied, rolling her eyes.

"We had better get going." Esme said, looking towards Carlisle.

"Yes, but first I have some rules children." Carlisle spoke firmly.

A giant groan came from everyone except Esme. "Enough with the rules old man!" Emmett pouted.

"I just want to make sure you know these few things. First, the cars we will be racing, are not like our cars back at home! You should not even attempt to push them over 25mph. Second, I don't want to have to write a check for damages. That means respecting the property. I don't even care if it's an accident. And finally, don't embarrass your mother and I!"

He made direct eye contact with Emmett when he said the last part.

"It's time!" Alice screamed with enthusiasm. And we raced out of sight.
