So this is late and I apologize but I just lost interest in this story. There's probably only going to be one more chapter.

There's a link to her outfit on my profile. Just go into her clothes link it's pretty obvious which one it is.


I woke up with a pounding headache. I groaned and burrowed my way into Jake's chest to try and get away from the light. He let out a sleepy sigh and stood up, throwing me over his shoulder. I was too tired to say anything so I just let him take me to my bedroom.

I felt his steady heartbeat under my ear and I let the sound of it lull me back into slumber. Soon enough I felt my back hit the softness of my bed but I didn't feel it give with Jake's added weight. I shot up and saw him getting ready to jump out my window.

"Where are you going, Jake? I thought you said that you were going to keep me safe," I whimpered, pulling the blanket up to my armpits to fight the cold of the open window.

He froze and turned to face me. "I am but I need to shift for a minute or two to calm my nerves. I wasn't going to leave the grounds or anything; I was going to stay close enough to hear everything."

I stood up and wrapped my arms around his waist, his heat filling me up. "Take me with you, I'll wait while you run and then we'll come back here. I'm too afraid to stay by myself."

I felt his arms wrap around me and pull me close to him. He kissed the top of my head and said, "I'm afraid that if you're out in the woods with me that I won't be able to keep a good eye on you."

"Aren't your senses better when you're in wolf form?" I asked, stepping back from him. Suddenly everything started to make sense to me, "Do you want to get away from me? Is that why you're leaving me?"

He froze and looked at me. I was as far away from him as my small room allowed me to be and I had my arms wrapped around myself protectively. Judging by the silence surrounding us I had hit the nail on the head.

"Nessie, it's not like that. I want to protect you all the time," Jake said, coming closer to me. "Please don't be mad at me."

I heard an unsaid but in his words. I pushed past him and slammed my bedroom door shut, sliding down it to sit in the hallway. My mother walked past and saw the tears falling down my cheeks.

"Nes, what's wrong? Did something happen between you and Jake?" she asked, sitting in front of me and taking my hands in hers.

"I feel like a burden to him all of the time. I think he's starting to get fed up with me," I whimpered, burying my face in her shoulder.

"You're not a burden in the slightest; I love that I'm meant to protect you," he said from the other side of the door.

"Did you hear that? He likes to protect you," she said, looking at the door. "Why don't you go talk to him about this? Maybe you can fix it."

I sighed and opened my door. Jake was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed, "Are you finished overreacting? Do you want a few more minutes?"

"Stop being a prick and come get me warm," I said, smiling at him. "I'm sorry that I'm a drama queen, I'm just freaked out about today."

He pulled me close and whispered, "I understand, you just need to understand that when everyone else is against you I'll always be on your side. You can always count on me."

I nodded against his chest and sighed. "I have to get ready. I feel like its judgment day, I guess it kind of is though, isn't it?"

He didn't answer and I heard the springs in my bed squeak. I moved over to my closet to try and find something to wear today. I picked out a strapless floral dress with a rose colored cardigan; I paired it with a pair of nude heels. I pulled my hair up into a messy bun and put on my makeup.

During this time Jake had ran home and picked up clothes to wear today. He had on a pair of jeans and a black polo with converse. He looked adorable but completely and totally uncomfortable. I walked over and sat on his lap, wrapping my arms around his neck.

"I'm so glad that you're going to be here with me. I'm so nervous," I said, kissing the side of his neck softly. "Can you feel them? My nerves I mean."

He didn't get to answer because Alice ran into the room. "Nessie, they're really close. You guys better come to the main house with me."

I nodded and walked down the steps with Jake holding my hand tightly. When we got there I saw Dad pacing the front yard and Emmett was throwing a football up in the air. Before I could even blink dad had gone over and popped the ball in his hands. Everyone was so tense.

"I know what you're talking about. Try feeling all of the emotions," Jasper said, placing a comforting hand on my shoulder. I must have sent the thought out by mistake.

I gave him what I hope was a reassuring smile as we all walked into the house. Esme and Carlisle were standing next to the door trying their best to look carefree. Suddenly the atmosphere changed and everyone froze in their spot. The Volturi had arrived.

The leader of the coven walked inside making me tighten my grip on Jake's hand. Caius locked gazes with me and he said in his whisper like voice, "Look at the Cullen child, she's all grown up. I wonder if she's staying with the code."

I felt Jake's nails digging into the top of my hand but I didn't let it go. I held my ground and with my head held high said, "Yes, I have stuck with the code very well. I am a very subtle hunter and very responsible with all of my endeavors."

"You're most definitely Edward's daughter, you'll say anything as long as it's what I want to hear," he said, taking my chin in his hands. "I, on the other hand, am going to read your thoughts to see if they've been as pure as you're making them out to be."

I knew he was searching through my mind, trying to find anything that would tell him I was a bad seed. When he pulled back and his lips stretched into a hideous smile I felt my pulse accelerate. People didn't smile like that unless they found something that you had kept hidden.

"You're not as innocent as you're making yourself out to be, are you Miss Cullen?" he said, eyeing Jacob.

"That's not breaking the rules but I still think it should be talked about," Marcus said, stepping forward and staring at Jake. "Does she drink your blood often?"

I heard everyone in the room let out surprised gasps and I felt my cheeks heating up. I didn't want anyone to know about that, it was something just for Jake and I. Damn it, shit was about to get awkward.
