Disclaimer: I don't own twilight. If I did Renesmee would have had a normal growth rate.

Weeks passed; soon it was time for prom. Edward as usual dazzled me into agreeing which I was not very happy about. I knew I should have found a way to be strong against it but it felt like it was a part of who we were, him dazzling me and me getting dazzled, forgetting everything and everyone around.

He knew that I was not the most coordinated person on earth and I was not sure why he wanted to do this. Doesn't going to high school for a million times make you hate occasions like this?

The other Cullens seemed to love it as well and I didn't know what to feel about it. The only think that I was sure about was that my clumsiness and dancing were a deadly combination.

Anyway here we were all dressed up. Edward was looking very handsome in his black tux and it was not a big surprise to me when I saw all eyes pretty much glued to him.

I wore a blue dress which I borrowed from Alice but something told me she had bought the dress specially for me. She even helped me get ready which was surprisingly fun.

I never had best friends who were there for situations like this and I was really nervous when she suggested that she could help me but everything went well. We had fun just laughing and teasing while she helped me get ready.

Everything with Cullens was different and Prom was no exception. For one they were incredibly beautiful and excellent dancers. As soon as they entered, the crowd parted as if welcoming the royals. Each and every eye was turned to them as we entered. The fact that Fork's most clumsy person was with one of them was downright laughable.

I clung to Edward as if he was taking me to make a sacrifice. After walking around for a couple of moments he pulled me to the dance floor which made me tenser.

I saw Edward's siblings dancing as if they were in a competition or something which made me more nervous. I knew I could never be a good dancer as I had difficulty in walking even on plain floor but seeing my future family dancing so gracefully made me feel really self-conscious. I looked back at Edward to see him watching me with a smile on his face. I bit my lips making him smile wider which I had no idea why.

He came closer to me and put his arms around me. Before I could say anything I was standing on his feet.

"I will never let you fall my Bella." He whispered in my ears. It felt like a promise for eternity than a silly dance in the prom.

We swayed to the music with both of us concentrating only on each other. I forgot his siblings, our friends and everything. It felt like we were the only people in the world. I was not even sure if we were dancing to the music that was being played.

Alice was the one who brought us back when she asked me whether I needed something to drink.

I looked around us to see everyone who was not dancing still staring at the other Cullens as they showed off their dancing skills, which was not actually a big surprise to me.

"Let's go outside Bella." Edward said to me.

Edward led me outside and walked to a gazebo decorated with hundreds of fairy lights. A pond on the side reflected the tiny lights making the sight more beautiful.

He pulled me into the gazebo and soon once again I was standing on his feet dancing to an imaginary song.

The whole scene felt like it was taken from a fairytale. I held him tightly inhaling his scent and losing myself in him.

"I will never let you fall." He whispered in my ears once again making me shiver with intensity of it.

"I will be there when things go wrong and you need someone to hold you tight."

He continued whispering as we swayed to some unknown music.

"I will never stop holding your hands even in darkness."

He spun me around and pulled me back on to his feet.

"I will be always there as your other half for rest of eternity."

He whispered as he kissed the tears streaming down my eyes. He was perfect in all sense of the word.

"Edward, that was too cheesy even for you." I said jokingly just lighten the atmosphere.

"Maybe or maybe I was just practicing. The groom cannot forget his vows."

That shut me up. I was not very comfortable with the concept of marrying this early in life besides Charlie would flip.

"Relax Bella. I am not proposing I was just looking for your reaction but I will one day and it will be the happiest day of my life."

"How do you I will say yes?"

"Oh Bella I know you better than I know myself." He said kissing me hard but continued.

"Bella you promised me eternity then why are you afraid of a piece of paper?"

The whole week I was thinking about what he said. I knew that I had promised him eternity and I should not be affected by the whole marriage thing but I didn't know what to think. I was too young to marry. People would definitely think I was pregnant.

By the end of the week I decided that it doesn't matter what people think or Charlie and Renée screaming at me if I could get to keep Edward physically, emotionally and by marriage legally with me forever.

"Bella Cullen." I said the name several times just to feel what it is like. I knew that in vampire world I was his mate which held more meaning than wife in human world. You can separate from your wife but in vampire world separation from mate means death.

"Bella…!" I was brought back from my thoughts by Charlie's voice.

"In here dad!"

"Bella, I need to talk to you about something." He looked really nervous and I had no idea why.

"What is it dad?"

"Bella there is this game on TV."

"ok." I said encouraging him to continue.

"It is ok if you don't want to."

"What are talking about?"

"I just…"

"Dad you look like Mike when he asked me to prom." I joked just to make him relaxed.

"What? I just…Who is this Mike? Is he giving you a hard time?"

"Mike is ….never mind. What were you saying?"

"Bella, I know that you have concerns about the tribe but…"

"Dad just say it."

"I was thinking about inviting Billy and Jake to watch the games but I won't if it makes you uncomfortable."

I didn't know what to say. I knew that my initial reaction was to say no. I didn't want any more drama in my life but I knew that I had to think about Charlie. Billy was his friend perhaps his best friend. I didn't know anyone else he was this close to. It was not fair on him to sacrifice his friendship for someone else's mistakes. So I decided to put aside my feelings and put on a happy face.

"It is fine dad. Are they staying for dinner?"

I knew that the bubble would appear when they arrive so I decided to call Edward to tell him what was happening so that he doesn't freak out and rush here.

"Edward please try to understand. I will be fine besides you can hear my each and every thought."

"Bella you know what happened last time. He is a wolf, they are unpredictable."

"Hey stop worrying. I know they are unpredictable but I have our bubble to protect me and I promise not to eat anything they bring."

"Bella…"

"I love you too"

That went better than I thought. I knew he was worried and a small part of me felt guilty for putting him through this but I had to do this for Charlie. That didn't mean I liked it. So I made the dinner earlier than usual and basically hid in my room.

I missed Edward which was nothing new. I was hurting both physically and emotionally which was also not new when he was not near me. But I had to do this for my dad.

Soon I felt the bubble around me giving me a sense of security and confidence. It felt really good to be in it again which in itself was really weird. But the best of part of it was that I was connected to Edward through thoughts.

"Hey handsome, miss me?"

He closed his eyes and let out huge sigh as soon as my thoughts reached him. I felt his as well as my pain all vanish as our minds connected with each other.

"Tell me again why I am all the way here when you are there." He asked

"You know the reason Edward. If I had my way you would be super glued to me for rest of eternity."

"I would like that very much."

I heard a car pulling in my drive way.

"Looks like wolf boy is here." I joked as I felt Edward's anxiety increasing.

"Bella…"

"I know Edward. But I have to do this for Charlie."

"I love you my sweet Bella."

I heard Charlie calling me from downstairs.

"Time to make an appearance." I thought to Edward and walked down the stairs.

"Hey Bella look who is here." Charlie said with as much enthusiasm as he could muster which made me feel really sorry for him. He was trying too hard to make me as much comfortable as possible.

"Hey guys." I greeted them with a smile which was really hard to pull considering what they and their tribe put me through.

"Hey Bella, You look good." Jacob said which made me almost roll my eyes.

"Thanks. Why don't you guys make yourselves comfortable? I really need to complete this assignment so call me when you are ready for dinner." I said and walked up the stairs into my room before they could say anything.

"That went well." Edward said.

"I miss you. I wish you were here."

"I know love. I want to be there so bad but you know that it will only cause problems. Once that mutt gets my scent he would most probably phase putting Charlie in danger."

"Do you really think that?"

"Bella I have told you before, wolves are very unpredictable. This one is very young and has not really seen much of world outside Forks. He thinks he is capable of anything even though the truth is far from it. They are like teenagers with their first motorcycle -careless and reckless."

"Well let's hope he does not end in a ditch somewhere."

"Enough with the wolf talk. Let's talk about something else."

So we talked and talked until I heard a knock on my door. I opened it to see Jacob standing there.

"Do you need anything Jacob?"

"Can I come in I need to talk to you about something."

I heard Edward's thought change from calm to angry in matter of seconds.

"Why don't we go down to the kitchen so that I reheat the dinner while you talk?" I said already walking down the stairs before giving him time to respond.

"Are you scared to be with me alone?" Jacob asked as we reached the kitchen. I snorted when I thought about what would happen to him if he was alone with my bubble.

He looked surprised by it. He must have thought that I was nervous because I was scared of him. Poor boy didn't realize that I was scared for him and not of him.

"I am not scared of you Jacob."

"Then why did you not allow me to enter your room?"

I heard Edward cursing which rather surprised me as he was always a gentleman. It was pretty funny when Emmett flew back at least two feet hearing Edward curse abruptly.

I could not help but laugh which made Jacob look at me as if I was crazy.

"Jacob, I needed to reheat the dinner."

"We both know it is not true. Don't you like me at all? I was your friend"

"Yeah when I was five." I said sarcastically.

"But we could have been. now look at you not even bothering to look at me when I talk."

"Well being poisoned by your people can make you like this."

"You won't even allow to enter your room?" he said ignoring what I said.

"Oh my god, Are you crazy? Can't you use your common sense? No girl wants a stranger in her room."

"Yet the leech gets free access." He mumbled.

"What did you just say?" I asked in a raised voice as I was getting angry. I could feel Edward's anger increasing which doubled my own anger.

"Bella I know the leech was there. I can smell him all over the house." He said in a cocky tone.

I had reached at my limit. I took deep breaths to control my anger.

"Jacob, listen to me and listen to me good. Edward is my mate. As a supernatural being you should know that it means more than marrying in the human world. You don't know me or anything that I am capable of doing. You may have seen me do some things but you have no idea what I can really do. Your people poisoned me and I remained calm, your people insulted me I remained calm but if you ever as much as utter a wrong word about Edward I will end you. You hear me I will end you. I know you feel like a big bad wolf capable of doing anything but trust me when I say this you are nothing to me."

He looked surprised. Suddenly I saw him shaking.

"Not this again" I thought.

"Stop shaking you stupid mutt. I don't need a repeat of your first day here." I shouted. I was afraid if Charlie heard anything but thanks to the high noises from the game he did not.

"Bella, I am coming." I heard Edward and knew that I could not stop him this time. I hoped that at least he used the back door and not pull out the front door like the last time.

The shaking boy phased and lunged towards me but I caught him by his neck.

"I told you not to do that." I said through my teeth.

He struggled but I did not let go. He started to make whiny noises as my grip tightened around his I opened my back door and walked outside with a wolf held by its neck in my hand.

He was struggling, trying to bite me but I was much stronger. I would not have noticed that he was struggling if I was not seeing it with my own eyes.

I saw that Edward was close and that now a bubble was around him as he got closer because of the wolf's presence.

"So ….next time you insult someone better be prepared for consequences." I said raising Jacob higher.

I was about to smash him to the ground when I heard Edward's and Emmett's laugh.

"Damn this never gets old, our little Bella manhandling the mighty wolves." Emmett said in between his laughs earning an eye roll from me.

"Edward I told you I would be fine." I said smiling at Edward forgetting all about the huge wolf that I held by the throat.

"You know me. I was worried." He said as he walked towards me and kissed me as if there was nothing unusual about the situation.

He took the wolf from my hand by its throat and threw it towards the forest. I was sure it would have fallen somewhere much further than anyone could throw as Edward was as strong as me with the bubble around him.

"Wow you guys are like superhero couple throwing big wolves like they were paper balls." Emmett said in awe. We just rolled our eyes at him.

"And what are you doing here" I asked him.

"Well broodward here freaked out about a big bad wolf hurting his little red riding hood. So I decided to tag along."

"Did you just compare me to a little girl who roams the woods with a red cape?"

"I sure did. What are you going do about it? Throw me across the river?"

"Don't tempt me Emmett."

"Edward, control your girlfriend. She is threatening to throw your most loving brother across the river."

"Well you started it and if you continue this I will be the one throwing you not Bella."

"I should go inside before Charlie realizes that his daughter is outside with her boyfriend." I said stopping their bickering.

"I will wait in the room for you love."

"And I will report back to the pixie who probably had a heart attack by now. These blank spots are making her crazy. Well crazier that what she normally is." Emmett said giving me a huge hug.

"And I am glad you are ok little bells." he added as he disappeared into the woods.

After saying bye to Edward and Emmett I went inside as if nothing had happened. I felt like deja vu from the first time Jacob turned to wolf in my kitchen.

"Bella where is Jacob?" Charlie asked.

"I don't know dad. He just walked out through the back door. You know the teenage boys and their mood swings."

Billy looked surprised.

"He left?" Billy asked.

"Yeah mumbling about wolves and leeches." I added just to make Billy shut up. It worked like a charm. Billy did not utter a word about Jacob till Charlie who was going on and on about teenage hormones drove him home.

"You are evil." Edward whispered as he kissed every part of my face after I went to bed snuggling close to him.

"Well what did you expect? I am your other half after all."

"That you are love, that you are."
