Detention was bearable because I knew Jacob was going to pick me up. We did nothing except do work or look at Chelsea giving you an evil glare. "You may go now," said the teacher.
I ran out the door. I had to hide from Rosalie so I went out the back door. I ran for the elementary. I saw Jake's car sitting in the lot. I ran over to the car. "Hey," I said as I sat in the passenger's seat.
"Hey," said Jacob as he started to drive. "What have you been up to?"
"Homework, school, and oh yeah, I gave a girl a black eye." He chuckled. "I just got out of detention."
"Why didn't you tell me on the phone."
"I guess I was on a role with a lying thing," I said trying to sound casual.
"What else did you lie about?"
"About what time school ends, that I have been fine, and I have already talked to Mom about you picking me up."
He almost ran off the road in shock. "What? Nobody knows you are with me."
"I actually haven't talked to Mom for a few days."
"You guys in a fight?"
"No, she is in Italy."
He almost wrecked the car again. "What? Why?"
"I don't know. Nobody will tell me. You know the old one: Your too young," I said with a sigh.
"Is she there alone?"
"No, Edward is with her. Carlisle, Esme, Alice, and Jasper are also there."
"Why would they need so many people there?"
"I don't know." My hone rang I looked at the ID: It was Rosalie.
"Hello?" I asked.
"RENESMEE CULLEN WHERE ARE YOU?" shouted a very angry Rosalie.
"I'm fine. I am with Jacob."
"Who gave you the right to do that?"
"Me."
"You are in a lot of trouble, Missy."
"I know. But I haven't seen Jake for a while.
"So, you thought it was okay to let him pick you up."
"No, I didn't think it was okay."
"So, you did it anyways."
"Pretty much."
'When is he dropping you off?"
"I don't know."
"Can I talk to him?"
"I don't thinkā¦"
"Just give him the phone!"
"Okay!" I handed Jake the phone.
"Hello?" he asked. There was a pause and I could hear Rosalie's shouting. "Okay. Okay. I'll have her home by 6:30." Another pause. "6:30" he repeated. Then he hung up. "Here," he said as he handed me the phone.
I stared at him wanting to know more. "I'm dropping you off at 6:30. She wanted 5:30 but I think you would want some real food before going back."
"Smart."
"So, why did you give a girl a black eye?"
I told Jacob everything. I knew he wouldn't laugh. He did the occasional interruptions. Wondering all about Joseph and if I liked him. He did laugh once when I got to the part when I punched Chelsea.
