"Renesmee, can I talk to you for a minute?"

I look over my shoulder, and Billy is rolling his wheelchair over to me. I give him a smile, "Sure!" I turn back around to Claire, who was telling me about a date she had with Quil a week ago, and I look at her, "Do you mind?"

"Not at all!" She tells me with a smile, and she gets off of the couch that we are sitting on, and then she makes her way into the kitchen where Emily is cooking.

I watch as Billy slowly pushes the wheels to bring him in front of the couch, and he stops when he is right across from me. His dark brown eyes, which look almost identical to Jacob's, look tired and wary. His whole face is covered with wrinkles, and he looks like tiredness has swept through his whole body. Suddenly a smile explodes on his face, and he holds out a hand for me to grab. When I take it, his smile becomes wider, "I just want to thank you."

"For what?" I ask him, as I grab his old, wrinkly hand tighter. I've gotten to know Billy these past few years, and he is like a second father to me. When I was younger I used to sit in his lap, and he would wheel us around. Now we are both older, and he is too weak to push us both.

"For making Jacob happy again," He says simply, as he locks his eyes with my own. "Ever since you were born he has became a new, better person, and now that you two are together I can tell that he is a lot happier."

I love seeing Billy talk about Jacob, because in his eyes I can tell that he is so proud of him. I know that I didn't just make him happier, but that he changed my life as well. "I love him, Billy, and he has made me happier, too."

"I can tell," He says, speaking with a hint of glimmer in his eyes. "You are going to make an amazing wife and mother one day."

Wife and mother? Jacob and I had our first kiss a couple of days ago, and now I'm already being thought of his wife and a mother to his kids? My heart starts picking up speed as I realize that I can't wait to be Jacob's wife. I know that in the future I will marry him, and the thought makes me smile. I've never thought about being a mother, but I can imagine little Jacob's running around the house as we try to catch them. I know that I don't have to worry about the future right now, so I just smile at Billy, "Thank you."

"I can't imagine a better wife for my son, and I am so glad that it is you, Renesmee." He tells me, and I can start to see tears forming in his eyes, as they start to glisten. "I know that you don't need my permission for this, but I just want to tell you. I give you permission to marry my son. I know that it probably won't be soon, and it might be a few years down the road, but I just wanted to tell you."

I know that tears are forming in my own eyes, as I smile brightly at him. "That means a lot Billy, and I'm glad that you wanted to come and talk to me."

"I figured that since all of the boys were patrolling and running all over the place that it would be a good time for us to talk," He says, and then he lets go of my hand. "I love you, Renesmee."

"Love you, too." I smile, and then lean forward to give him a kiss on the cheek. "I'm glad that we got to talk."

He smiles, and then wheels backwards a little, "Me too, kiddo."

"You did not beat me!" Quill's voice echo's through the entire house, as the front door swings open and they come in.

Jacob scoffs at what he says, and then punches him in the arm, "Yeah right. I won the race."

"I don't know, Jacob." Claire adds as she walks out of the kitchen, and wraps an arm around Quill's waist. "Quil is pretty fast."

"Then obviously you haven't seen Jacob run," I tell her as I walk over to Jacob, and wink at the three of them. Jacob wraps his arm around my shoulder, and I grab his hand with mine. "So how was patrol?"

"Boring," Quill answers me, as he brings Claire in closer to him. "There are no vampires around anymore, so I'd rather be here spending time with Claire."

I watch as Claire blushes, and reaches up to give him a kiss on the cheek. She grabs his hand, and leads him into the kitchen. Jacob pulls me into a tight hug, and kisses me on the top of my head. "What were you talking to my dad about?" He whispers in my ear, giving me goose bumps.

"We were just talking." I tell him, as I rest my head on his chest. I can hear his heart beating underneath my ear, and my eyes close. "So what did you want to do today?"

"Well, I was hoping –" Jacob's train of thought is interrupted by a loud scream that echoes through the house.

"SOMEONE CALL THE HOSPITAL!" Sam's strong voice makes everything quiet. What happened? I can feel my heart beating faster as Jacob grabs my hand, and pulls me to the front of the house. As we walk out of front door, something makes Jacob freeze where he is.

Billy's head is hanging down, his chin touching his chest, and his body looks limp. I manage to tear my eyes off of him, and I look up to Jacob. His eyes look hallow, and his face has no emotion. He is just frozen.

"He passed out, and his heartbeat is slowing. We need to get him to the hospital!" Sam yells over to us, as he puts too fingers on his neck to find a pulse. "I don't know what happened!"

Emily runs out of the front door, and rushes to where Sam and Billy are. She removes the phone from her ear, "The hospital has a room for him. We just have to get them there. It is only a few minutes away."

"Jacob, help me get Billy in my truck." Sam yells over to where we are standing.

I look up to Jacob, but his eyes are fixed on Billy. His hand is gripping my hand so tightly that it hurts, but I don't say anything. Sam yells over to Jacob again, trying to get his attention, but he doesn't budge. I know that we have to get Billy to the hospital, so I reach up to Jacob's face with my free hand. I pull his face down, so his eyes will meet mine. Once his eyes look like awake again, I squeeze his hand. "Jacob, he needs your help."

"Ness," He whispers softly, not letting his eyes leave mine. Tears are forming in his eyes, and I can feel my heart aching. He hasn't come this close to crying before in front of me.

"I'm here, Jake," I tell him as I pull his face closer to mine. No matter how much I want to kiss him and to tell him that it is okay, I know I can't. It's not the time for that. He needs me to be strong. "You need to go help Billy."

His eyes and face look full of pain, as he leans down to kiss me on the forehead. "Thanks." He looks down at our hands, like he is afraid that I am going to leave, and then he slowly lets go. I watch as he basically drags his feet over to Billy, and picks him up from the wheelchair. Sam has the back door to the truck open, and Jacob slides Billy in.

"Renesmee, do you want to go to the hospital with us?" Emily asks me, as she places a hand on my back.

I manage a nod, and then she brings me over to the truck. Jacob is sliding into the seat next to Billy, and then I move into the seat next to Jacob. Jacob's hands automatically find my own, and I lean into him. As I close my eyes, and find comfort in Jacob, I hear Emily telling Quill and Claire to go and tell everyone to meet us at the hospital.

Everything has changed in the past few minutes. It was only a moment ago when I was smiling as I talked to Billy, and now he lays unconscious in the seat. I can't imagine what happened, since he seemed fine a few minutes ago. Sam said that he fainted, but from what? I know that he is getting old, but I don't want him to leave us yet. I don't think I'd be able to handle it. My heart breaks at the thought of watching Jacob deal with the loss of his father. I try to push the image out of my mind, because it hasn't happened yet. Billy is still here, and that is all that matters. I bring myself closer to Jacob, as I struggle to hold in the tears that are building up. He wraps one arm around me, and holds me close to him.

Emily sits in the passenger seat, as Sam starts the car. I hear them talking to each other, but I don't try to focus on the words. I'm only worried about two things at the moment: Jacob and Billy. I can't find enough strength to open my eyes and look over at them, but I know what I'd see anyways. Both of them hurting, and both of them in need of help and comfort.
