True Love Never Dies

Chapter 10

Ellen's POV:

I'd woken up in the morning with a feeling that something wasn't right. Sitting up in Max's bed I looked over to see him sprawled across the blankets, looking as if he'd just crashed. Smiling slightly to myself I carefully slipped out of his bed before running my brush through my hair. I looked out the window to see that the sun was only just coming up. I smiled slightly before heading to the bathroom to freshen up.

Splashing my face in the mirror I could faintly hear Renesme and Jacob talking which I thought was coming from the bathroom. I stopped for a moment in my tracks, hoping I hadn't been the one to wake either of them up.

"Someone has to tell her Jacob, I don't want her getting herself into danger trying to find out for herself."

"I know Max wants to tell her and I know there's defiantly the imprint bond between the two of them, I just don't know... Sam and Emily need to know first, they'll know what the best thing to do is."

"She's going to get hurt trying Jacob, you know that,"

"And my son would get hurt if he told her, Sam or Emily may have a better idea,"

"Do you think she's not suspicious about him being dragged out by you last night for Patrol?"

"He refused to go Renesme, the pack needed him. There's a new nomads scent out there, they need to be found and I don't want to bring Sam into this, he's on break,"

"He's going to find out about it... and She was so upset last night... She really needs to know Jacob,"

I no longer knew what to think, I'm sure they were talking about me but I couldn't be too sure. What did they have to consult my parents with first? What the hell was an imprint? Sighing quietly I looked around the bathroom before drying off my hands and towards the kitchen, hoping to grab a glass of water before Max was to wake up.

Standing in the kitchen I sipped at my water as I looked through the photos that where hanging across the walls of the lounge. There were pictures of the Cullen Family, which was Renesmes side; there were also pictures of Jacobs side of the family, along with all his friends and my parents. This place really felt like a home.

I could hear footsteps coming down the hall; I turned my head in hope that it was Max to see Jacob. I smiled lightly before putting my glass into the dishwasher. Something felt slightly awkward; did he know that I could hear him talking to Renesme?

"Morning!" Renesme chirped as she made her way downstairs.

"Good morning," I smiled softly towards her as she headed straight to the kitchen after kissing Jacobs's cheek, the two of them where so perfect for each other; they reminded me of my Mum and Dad. I smiled slightly towards them when it hit me, I really wanted to go home, but I also wanted to be with Max.

"I can't believe you're going home tomorrow! This has gone so fast!" Renesme huffed as she wrapped her arm around my shoulder. "Pancakes for breakfast sound good?"

"They sound amazing," Max said sleepily as he made his way downstairs. I smiled slightly over to him, trying not to make it too obvious that I was dying to see him and have a hug from him. Renesme just nodded and smiled in his direction before pulling out the pancake mixture that she must have prepared earlier, humming happily.

I smiled slightly over to Max as he made his way to me, wrapping his arms around my waist as he kissed my forehead. "Morning Beautiful,"

"Morning," I smiled softly up at him; I could feel eyes on us. I turned to see Jacob giving me the death glare with Renesme watching Jacob. I stood up on my tiptoes and whispered into Max's ear.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what I've done, your dad used to love me but I think he hates me," I frowned a little before stepping back, looking up at Max. I could see the expression on his face drop, I couldn't help but frown.

I looked over to Jacob to see him still looking our way; it was as if he could hear us because his expression only became tougher.

"He doesn't hate you... He's just a little mad at me," he whispered, I looked up at Max, not sure what to say. He could tell I was lost for words. "I left... work ... early last night, I wasn't supposed to because it was an emergency... but now he's mad at me," he sighed.

I looked over towards Jacob where I could see him keeping an eye on us, looking over towards Renesme you could read her expression; worried.
