This is a really long chapter sorry! I hope you love it as much as I do!


Seth pulled up to his sister's house to see all the lights were on. He's not going to kill me. He can't upset Leah... He thought, slowly getting out of the car to walk towards the house. He couldn't stop the memory of that morning from flashing through his mind with each step he took.

The knock on the door grew louder as I rushed over to answer it. The moment I did a cup of Ice cream was being shoved under my nose.

"Dis is for you!" Daniel cheered as he shook it in front of me, taking the treat I looked up to see Jake with a cone of his own while Dee rest on his hip. "Jake? Dee? What are you doing here?" I asked.

"We got ice cream! Jake said we should bring you some too!" Dee smiled as Jake grunted.

"Uhh, thanks?" I questioned as Jake pushed his way into my apartment without saying a word. Kicking the door shut, I followed them to the kitchen; Jake sat at the chair closest to the wall with his legs spread far out in front of him. It wasn't until that moment that I realized the massive size of my brother-in-law. In his own house Jake was normal size but being squeezed into my tiny ass apartment the man looked gigantic. Deciding to take a seat closer to Dee I waited for Jake to say something... anything really... but the man just sat there taking bites out of his ice cream. Unsure at what to do, I looked down to see Daniel making a scooping motion with his spoon towards his mouth. Taking the hint I started to eat in silence.

"Do you like it?" Dee asked as the little boy licked his ice cream with a smile. It was chocolate with peanut butter mashed inside; with a smile I nodded my head as the little shifter continued. "I picked it out!"

"Thanks..." I grunted.

"You're welcome," Dee smiled and continued to eat his ice cream. With a shake of my head, I looked back up at Jake to see the alpha staring at me with his arms crossed.

Shit...

This is about Nessie. I thought, knowing that Jake had gone into protective mode as my alpha glared at me the same way he did the day of the fires. He wants to kill me.

"Why don't you go watch some cartoons Dee?" Jake asked pulling his eyes away from me for a brief moment to stare at his son.

"But," Dee whined, until Jake pointed him with a look which lit a fire under the little shifter's butt, making him jump up and run to the living room. He waited until the sound of cartoons started to play before growling at me. Straightening my back, I could feel Jake's power run through my veins causing my wolf to stand to attention.

"You're taking my little girl out." Jake stated.

I quickly answered "Yes" before becoming silent again, I could feel my wolf as he submitted to his leader and put my head down out of respect.

"You plan on making her your girlfriend?"

I looked up quickly confused why he would ask me, clearly I wanted more with Nessie that's why I asked her out on this date. "I don-" but I didn't finish as Jake brought a fist down on the table and growled at me again.

"Let me put it this way... MY Nessie came home excited about a date with you. This in my eyes means you're about to be very seriously dating my imprint. Who to me, is my daughter. I changed her diapers, brushed her hair and put her to bed every night. I would really hate to see her upset. I would REALLY hate to see her cry again. I would hunt down the thing that gave her so much pain and rip it to pieces. Do YOU understand?" I couldn't stop the nervous chuckle that bubbled out of my mouth. The fury in Jakes eyes shut me up and I nodded my head in response before the big man continued. "So I'll ask one more time. Do you plan on making her your girlfriend?"

"Yes." I answered, quickly knowing it to be true.

"Good, good... I'm happy to hear it." Jake said standing up before whistling to Daniel as if he was a puppy, and just like a puppy Dee was by his side with cheeks covered in chocolate. "Say goodbye to Uncle Seth."

"Bye Uncle Seth!" Dee smiled, coming to hug me as my wolf still shook with fear of it's Alpha. My body moved on auto pilot as I wrapped my arms around the little shifter.

"See you later Daniel," I replied, as the little boy poked me in the arm and laughed.

"Here's a cootie shot! Don't worry I gave one to Nessie too, so you can kiss her!" With a nervous chuckle again, I didn't look up at Jake as he ruffled the kid's hair. Jake put out his hands and Daniel jumped up as if it was a practiced trick and just as quickly as they arrived, they left leaving me confused and a little scared about messing up the date tonight.

With a shiver Seth raised his hand to knock only to have the door open suddenly to Jacob staring down at him. Swallowing the lump in his throat he went to say something until his sister's voice cut in.

"Leave him alone Jake!"

Jake dashed to the stairs to reprimand his sister. "LEAH! You're not supposed to be out of bed!" He took the stairs two at a time until he was by her side. Leah's stomach was massive as she rested her hands on her lower back for support. Seth had heard about her eating them out of house and home but until that moment he hadn't believed it. Rose hissed and smacked Jake as he went to pick up his wife to carry her downstairs. Ignoring her, he went to bend down again when Rose hit his hands away a second time.

"Hit me again Blondie and see what happens!" Jake barked, turning towards the blonde.

"Do you think I'm scared? HA! Listen here Fido I- LEAH?!" Both of them turned around as Leah was already halfway down the stairs. Before either of them could get to her Carlisle was there taking her arm to help her down.

"Thank you, I swear they bicker like an old married couple," Leah muttered as Carlisle chuckled.

"I think they're fond of each other but haven't figured out another way to get along. It's just the way they say I love you."

Leah and Carlisle laughed as he helped her sit down on the couch, smiling up at Seth she waved him over. "Come here stupid."

Quickly moving he was next to her side with a huge smile of his own. "You're glowing Lee!"

"That's called sweat sweetie and its pouring out me like Niagara Falls!" She chuckled and wiped her forehead before resting her hands on her stomach and looking at him. "So you're taking Ness out huh?"

"Yeah," he answered making sure to ignore the growl coming from upstairs.

"You know in this condition I won't be able to help you if you mess up?"

"I know," he replied.

"Ok, as long as you know... So where are you taking her?" Leah asked

"It's a surprise."

Leah patted his knee. "I am sure she's going to love it."

"I hope so."


Nessie stood in Leah's bathroom and did a double take to make sure she looked perfect. She wore dark skinny jeans with a long sleeve black and white striped shirt, compliments of Rose. She was going for a cute French look complete with beret. Smiling, she couldn't believe the night she had been waiting for years was about to start. Thoughts swirled in her mind.

Remember not to chew with my mouth open...

Don't get lost inside my head...

And don't freak out when he kisses me!

"Stop over thinking it squirrel" Jakes deep voice came from the bathroom door.

Nessie smiled at him as she grabbed her mascara to put on. "I just can't believe it's finally happening! I feel all bubbly and my heart is pounds a mile a minute. I feel like any second I'm going to float away. Is this how you felt with Leah when you first started dating?" She asked turning to Jake with a smile.

With a sigh, knowing that his little imprint was all grown up, he took a seat on the edge of the tub and answered honestly. "I feel that way every day with her."

Nessie just stood there thinking about his words and knowing that if she felt this way every day with Seth, she would die a happy woman. She knows she has been upset with him the past couple weeks but she also knows it wasn't just him to blame. She never told him how she really felt and to yell at him for doing what he did before she arrived really wasn't fair. Then when he surprised her by asking her out on this date it washed away all those feeling of hurt. It gave her hope. She hoped like hell that the date went perfect. She wasn't sure if she could survive knowing that they never gave themselves a real attempt at love.

I hope this date goes well...

I have to remember not to come on to strong...

Just play it cool... yeah... cool daddy Oh...

Nessie was giggling to herself when Jake cleared his throat. "Ness, try to remain in the real world on this date. He might not understand why you space out on everything."

"Sorry." Nessie smiled knowing that Jake understood that she mostly spent her days inside her daydreams.

But not anymore! I'm going to make my dreams come true tonight!

"NESS! Earth to Renesmee!" Jake laughed standing up. "I said your date has been waiting downstairs."

Spinning around Nessie screeched at Jake. "AND YOU'RE TELLING ME THIS NOW?!" With a little jump Ness threw on her flats and grabbed her purse but not before giving Jake a hug. The large man held her tightly, to her discomfort as she couldn't move her body except her feet. "You have to let go." She said with her cheek pressed against his hard shirt covered chest but Jake didn't let go and instead held her tighter and whisper. "My little Squirrel is all grown up."

"Yep! Now this little squirrel gonna get some nuts tonight! OHHH, you know what I'm saying?!" Nessie laughed as she pulled away and did a little jig. Not amused, Jake let out a ferocious growl. Nessie tried to quickly sooth him. "I'm kidding! I swear! Please don't kill Seth!"

I really need to stop hanging out with Brady! She thought as her mind was on an endless loop of what sex would be like with Seth.

"Just go!" Jake groaned, covering his eyes and pointing towards the door. Taking her cue from him, she quickly bolted out the door and skipped down the hall only to see Dee waiting by his bedroom door.

"How do I look, little Wolf?" She asked giving a little spin.

"You look beautiful," Dee replied quickly, knowing it was the right answer as Nessie's face lit up with joy. He took her out stretched hand and walked with her downstairs. Seth's back was turned towards her as she came down and she waited until she was standing behind him to clear her throat.

"Are you ready?" she asked.

Spinning his head around Seth smiled at her. However, he didn't look her up and down like she expected, but as the growl came from behind her she knew Jake was watching. Seth kissed his sister on the cheek and jumped up from the couch.

"Bye Lee. Bye -" Seth began before Nessie cut in by grabbing his hand and pulled him out the door. "Yeah, yeah, bye everyone we'll be back later!" Nessie cheered. She waited for the door to shut before she let go and turned towards Seth with a smile.

"That could've taken all night! So where are you taking me?" She asked feeling her nerves run wild with excitement.

"That's a surprise." Seth smiled a wicked smile as he jumped down from the porch and start walking towards his car. He walked around to the passenger side and opened the door for Nessie. Smiling sweetly she quickly jumped in and watched as he closed the door gently and jogged to the drivers side to jump in. Starting it up Seth smiled at Nessie and complimented her. "You look really beautiful tonight."

"Thank you." she blushed as they started to back out of the driveways and head down the hill to exit La Push. The car was silent as they both had a lot on their mind but as Seth started on the long road that drove towards forks he got the ball rolling.

"I thought you had to stay with Brady and Collin while your grandparent were in town?"

Nodding her head she kept her eyes on the road as she answered. "I kinda forgot in my excitement about tonight... I just ran in the house without thinking. Lee and Jake tried to act surprised but grandma already knew. The idiots didn't change my bed sheets so they smelled me the minute they walked in my room a few days ago. But thats grandma and grandpa for you, they won't tell dad so I'm not worried about it..." Seth was smiling from ear to ear as Nessie rambled on, it wasnt till she looked over at him that she chuckled and asked. "What are you so happy about?"

"I'm happy you we're excited about tonight I was worried you might have second thoughts after I left." Seth responded honestly as he turned down a familiar dirt road that she and Brady had taken the day of the fires. Not wanting to sound like a needy girl, she was happy for the distraction "Uhhh where are you taking me?" she questioned as Seth stopped the car and got out.

"On a date."

"We're going into the woods?"

"Yep..."

With a slight frown Nessie got out of the car and came up to asked again. "We're going into the dirty woods? That's where you're taking me? You're not planning on killing me are you?" she joked by raising her hands and taking a step back. With a chuckle, Seth shook his head and reached for her hand but thought better of it and hesitated. "No peeking ok?" When it didn't click with her, he gestured with his hand and head."No peeking!"

"Oh yeah, I won't!" She laughed and sighed as he slipped his warm hand into hers and they started their long walk into the woods.


Brady sat on the couch flipping through the channels as he thought about Nessie.

She just bailed on me? She didn't even remember our plans!

The rejection was burning a hole in his chest. When she had gotten home the night before, he could hear the joy at finally having a date with Seth. He knew he should feel happy for her but he couldn't control the feeling that started to grow with being with her. Looking up as the front door opened he watched as Collin came waltzing in with pizza and beer. Plopping down on the couch beside him, Collin pulled out a cold one and handing it to him before opening the pizza box to take a piece.

"You can't be surprised that she forgave him so quickly, she's in love with him." Collin said not looking at him.

Taking a sip Brady sighed, "I didn't mean to start liking her."

"I know, but you can't do anything about that."

They sat there silently for a while as the show played in the background both got lost in their own thoughts.

What if I miss out on the best thing I could ever have? Brady thought.

"No, you can't tell her either. You'll just make her feel like shit for not choosing you." Collin said knowing what his brother was thinking. Brady growled and leaned forward to take a piece of pizza before flopping back on the couch to snap at Collin. "I never said I would."

"You don't have to! I know you 'jackass' and your going to do something very stupid. You have that 'Hey look I'm about to be reckless and insensitive' look in your eye that you get when you have a wild hair up your ass. Just don't hurt her, which you telling her that you love her, will do." Collin calmly said taking the remote from Brady as the other shifter started to tremble with anger at his brothers correct analysis. Collin only smiled as Brady stood up and stormed off into his bedroom to slam the door shut in rage.


Nessie was really regretting her choice of shoes as they came up to another small slope. She could see light coming from between the trees and she smiled as she realized they were almost there.

"We're here." Seth cheered letting go of her hand.

"Finally! I was about to ask you to carry me the rest of the way," Nessie joked as they walked into a small clearing were an assortment of fake plastic candles were scattered in a large circle, lighting up the small clearing. A white sheet hung up between two trees and a basket sat on a plaid blanket in the middle with large sofa pillows big enough for two. Seth was smiling as he came to stand in the middle with his arms spread out wide.

"Welcome to our first date!"

Nessie was silent as she looked around the space. Seth's smile dropped a little at her silence, so he began to ramble on to explain. "I thought I could take you to dinner and maybe a movie but that's boring. I thought maybe I could take you to a concert but then we couldn't really talk and hangout so... I tried to think of something. Then it hit me why not do all those things?" Nessie remained silent as she looked at him. Nervous, he continued to talk. "I got the movie One Day with Anna Hathaway, I remember you telling me it was one of your favorite movies we can watch it over here..." He said coming over to grab her hand and pull her to the middle with him. Leading them to sit down on the blanket facing each other. "And I brought dinner, your favorite cheese burgers from that little place in Forks. I made sure it was made the way you like it, plain with only pickle. For dessert I figured we would have all your favorite candies while we watch the movie so I got Jelly beans. I picked out all the none red ones because I know you hate any other flavor and see's chocolates but only the marshmallow caramel ones... Oh and fudge..." Seth waited for her to say something.

Nessie was staring at the basket full of all her favorite things and slowly grabbed the bag of jelly beans. She was sure her heart would explode with the thought of how much trouble he went through to make their first date special. She was positive that he had just ruined any other man's chance of ever stealing her heart. Trying to hold back the tears she squeezed her eyes shut.

Is this really happening?

I just know Im going to wake up from this perfect dream...

"Umm Ness? Is something wrong?" Seth asked, sitting back on his hunches a little deflated at her silence. Looking up quickly, Nessie could see the worried expression on his face. She opened her mouth to say something but couldn't trust her mouth not to scream at him that she was head over heels in love with him, so she shut it immediately.

"You hate it." He groaned covering his face.

Shaking her head quickly she reached across and pulled his hand away from his face. Without a sound she pounced into his arms and held him tightly to her as she let out a little squeal and finally found her voice. "No, I love it! I'm sorry I'm just overwhelmed." They were cheek to cheek as she slowly pulled back to look him in the eyes. Seth's face held no other emotion but longing and regret.

"I should have done this years ago." He whispered.

"Yes, you should've." she whispered back.

Nessie went to pull away when Seth pulled her body flush against his own. He held her tightly and ran his hands gently up and down her back, their lips were inches from each other and Nessie could feel the warmth of his breath as he came closer. Licking his lips, he looked into her eyes as if to ask permission when she gave a small nod he closed the space between them and pressed his lips against hers. Nessie's lips tingled when they came together; a warm bubbling sensation took over her heart and spread through her body like wild-fire. A shiver shook her body as she reached up to wrap her arms around his neck. Taking initiative Seth deepened the kiss, sending Nessie's body into a tailspin of emotion ranging from excitement to lust till settling on love. Her heart was pounding as she felt Seth's hands squeeze her curves. His warm scent invaded her senses causing her to moan out. Every caress of his tongue left her wanting more, needing more. It was overpowering, as Seth pulled back and whispered her name against her lips. With a jolt, her power shot out of her and pour into him letting him see every feeling as if it were his own.

Startled, Seth pulled away quickly. "Nessie?"

"Oh god." She cried quickly covering her face with her hands. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean for that to happen!"

Seth was breathing heavily as he stared at her... She loves me?.. He thought as he reached over and pulled her hands away from her face. Nessie refused to look at him and opted to stare at the ground instead.

"You love me?" He asked needing to hear the answer come from her lips.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean it." She whispered.

Frowning Seth used the tips of fingers to raise her chin "Soooo... you don't love me?"

Shaking her head she opened her mouth intending to lie to him, but the look he was giving her in that moment told her not to. "Yes." she said keeping her eyes on his face.

"Yes you love me or yes you don't?" he asked, confused.

"No, I meant yes I love you. I think I always have."

Seth remained silent as he looked into her warm brown eyes and auburn waves of hair. She was his best friend, the only women besides his sister that he told everything to. She knew his worst fears and his greatest dreams; she supported him and knew what the risks were when she fell in love with him.

She knows it could all be taken away with one look...

Yet she still loves me?

Me?

She loves me...

Seth knew his own feeling because he had felt them for years but tonight he knew it was the right time. It might be to soon for these words but he trusted her and he hoped like hell that they made it the distance as he whispered the only words he only ever said to his mom and sister. "I love you too." Lips crashed against his own as she quickly wrapped her arms around him and squealed out in happiness. He kissed her back tenfold until they felt breathless and she started to giggle.

"You probably think I'm a silly girl, but this is the best moment of my life."

Knowing the perfect words he gently peppered her lips and cheeks with kisses as he whispered in her ear. "It is mine too..." Holding back the tears she wanted to cry Nessie just put her head on his shoulder and sighed. Unsure what to do next she took his hand in hers and looked down at their entwined fingers and smiled.

He loves me?

If I'm dreaming, I hope I never wake...

Seth pulled her to lay back with him on the pillows. With a smile that could light up the dark sky, she reached up to capture his lips once more. She felt it before she heard it the sound she hated most. The sound of her dads ringtone. With a groan she reached into her pocket and pushed the silent button to send it to voicemail.

"Sorry," she smiled just as her phone began to ring again.

"Just check it." Seth laughed as she wiggled about trying to dig it out of her back pocket. Pulling it out with a sigh, she knew she had to answer.

"I have to answer this," she groaned standing up to take the call. "Hey dad!" she cheered looking back as Seth lounged against the pillows with a lazy smile.

"Hello darling, how's school?" Ed's voice came through sarcastically.

"Uh oh it's great! Staying really busy," she lied.

"I can see that, tell me again what dorm number you were staying in?" Edwards said as she could hear her mother's voice behind him.

She answered a little nervous. "Three zero two? Why?"

"That's very interesting considering we are standing outside your dorm room and the kind girl inside told us she's never heard of you."

"Shit."

"Come home now Renesmee. I expect you back before we get there." He didn't leave room for argument as Edward hung up on her. Staring down at her phone, Nessie debated just ignoring her father but knew no amount of arguing would change his mind. She looked at Seth as he was laughing.

"Did you just get caught?"

"I have to go home." She groaned feeling like a helpless child as she turned her back to him. Seth quickly stood up and walked up behind her to wrap his strong arms around her shoulders. With another sign she melted into his chest and decided she never wanted to leave the safety of his embrace again.

"How long do you have until you have to be back?" He asked kissing her neck for the first time. In that exact moment she decided that was her new favorite thing in the world and wished he'd never stopped.

"They're in New York, if they're running we have an hour before I need to be on the road."

"I think that's enough time to enjoy the rest of our date? What do you think?"

Smiling up at him she nodded as they both took to the floor again and he started up the movie...


Night club in Port Angeles:

Looking down into the sea of people dancing on the dance floor, Warren rest his hands on the railing. He could hear as Leona laughed from somewhere behind him as she and the rest of the coven except Dorian, Tasha, Vander and Luther all sat in VIP seating.

It had been weeks since the fires and Dorian had called off their hunt for the time being because of the idiotic Bulgarians slip up. They were all growing exhausted of sitting around the house only picking up a bite to eat every other day to lower the risk of being exposed. It was Leona's idea to come out the club and while Dorian disapproved he knew it would be pointless to demand them all to stay in the cramped house.

Warren realized that Dorian needed every last one of his soldiers to fight for him, so giving them the much-needed break, they all came to the busiest nightclub in town and took over. Girls threw themselves at them like they always did and the coven was more than happy to oblige their dinners for the evening. Warren could feel as Leona came to stand beside him, without looking he hooked an arm around her waist and pulled her close. He could smell the blood and alcohol pouring out of her mouth letting him know they had all began to feast.

"Are you still thinking about her?" Leona asked as she wrapped her arms around him and frowned. Knowing that she was referring to Natasha, Warren hissed as his semi good mood turned completely sour as he glared down at his wife. Tasha and he had butted heads every day, since they arrived. Dorian's favorite little pet was the bane of his existence. Whenever he told Dorian of a brilliant plan, the bitch was there to shoot it down or point out its many flaws. It was a silent competition between them and everyone knew it. He wanted to be Dorian's right hand man, his voice of reason, and advisor. Instead Dorian listened and respected any words that left his precious princess' mouth.

Dorian trusts her too much... Warren thought as he hissed out at Leona. "She is a thorn in my side like you are woman."

Laughing Leona snuggled closer "Why don't you just kill her? It would make you feel better."

With a smile he looked up to and replied. "No that's foolish what with the morons guarding her every move." Leona was silent for sometime as they just stood there. She was swaying on her feet from drinking the drunken girl's blood. Looking behind him, Warren could see the humans as the lay passed out from blood loss around the table. Night clubs were perfect for a night out. People who were drinking, thought nothing of it when people were passed out on the tables. As long as they disposed of the bodies after they leave no ones the wiser.

"Then you'll have to get Dorian to see she is nothing compared to you!" Leona blurted out causing Warren to come out of his thoughts

With a roll of his eye he asked. "And how exactly should I do that?"

"Let's take the Alphas wife! I'll borrow Dorian's gift so that we can sneak onto the land for the next few days. We find her patterns, then when no one is looking we take her to him. He will see how wonderful you are and toss Tasha to the side with the two others and you'll be his number one. The rest of the coven will follow your lead Warren..." Turning around Leona pulled him towards the group as they drank and sang a tune from their beloved England.

"Who here is sick of this god forsaken country?"

"AYE!" The group cheered sending them into a flurry of laughter, Warren's mind began to run wild with what his wife had said and a plan began to form...


An hour later:

Brady lay on his bed staring at the ceiling as the front door flew open and he could hear as Nessie came running down the hallway and into her room. He groaned as he pushed himself to stand up. He had a while to think about what Collin had said and he knew his brother was right about him. Walking across the room Brady opened his door and went across the hall to see Nessie shoving all her things into her bag as quickly as she could. He felt sick to his stomach as he watched her move, Is she leaving to stay with him? He thought as a low growl slipped out alerting her of his presence.

"Hey B!" Nessie cheered as she ducked under the bed to dig for a shoe.

"The date went so well your moving out? Damn I might need a lesson or two from Seth!" Brady joked as Nessie popped up with an angry face as she placed them in her bag.

"Mom and Dad know Im here, I've been summoned home." she growled with an eye roll as she started ranting on. "You'd think Im old enough to make my own decision, but nooooooo Im just a child to them! They think they can come barging into my life without a care in the world! Well the jokes on them cause Im going to stick so close to them they won't have another minute of-" Brady stopped listening as the relief that she wasnt going to Seth's house washed over his body. He continued to watch her as she moved from one side of the room to the other all the while continuing to go on about the injustice that is her life. She's perfect... He thought as he looked at what she had chosen to wear on their first date. Lucky asshole... He thought of his pack brother.

"I think that's everything! Ill be back!" Nessie cheered turning on her heels to grab her bag. Brady bit his lip to stop his mouth from saying something that would cause more damage than good. Instead he opened his arms and she came crashing into his chest, he could smell the lingering scent of his pack brother and he held in the growl that wanted to escape. He could see how happy she was as she looked up at him with her warm brown eyes. "Don't miss me to much!" Nessie smiled as she went to pull away. He debated kissing her lips and could almost taste them but the sound of Collin coming into the room stopped him and for the first time in his life he was happy for his brothers annoying presence.

"Yo Ness! Seth said to hurry up you only have twenty minutes to get to Jake's house..."

"Shit!" Nessie yelped as she gave Collin a quick hug and ran out of the room screaming at them. "I'LL BE BACK! AND DONT STOP PRACTICING YOU HAVE THE AUDITION IN A FEW DAYS!"

"WE WONT!" Collin yelled back as the front door slammed shut and he turned to Brady. "I'm proud of you! You weren't a completely selfish ass! How does if feel to know that a woman isn't into you?"

"Not good..." Brady grumbled "Is this how it feels to be you? Damn your life sucks!"

Collin growled as his brother hit him in the head and ran out the room clearly heading towards the woods for a run. Knowing that Brady was in need of a good distraction he followed suit ready to kick his ass in a race.


Leah and Rose sat side by side on the couch with their heads together as Jake paced back and forth in front of them. Jake paused by the window and pulled back the curtain to check if Nessie had returned from her date only to growl when there was no sign of his imprint. Rose started laughing while Leah rolled her eyes and whispered to Rose. "Do you think if I go into labor he'll even notice?"

"Nope..." Rose responded as Jake checked the window again.

"What I don't understand is what is taking so long?! Who goes on a date for over an hour!" Jake growled worried as he checked the window again. Leah couldn't control the sarcasm that came pouring out of her mouth at his statement.

"Oh, you know they're probably having hot wild sex in the woods! Its time-consuming... you remember!"

Jake's body went rigid as he began to shake uncontrollably and both women started laughing again as Jake ripped the curtain in his hands. It was Esme's calm voice that soothed the beast raging inside the man as she came up to him with a plate of food.

"Stop your teasing girls... He can't help it, I have to say it is very hard to see my little angel all grown up and going on a date!"

It was Rose this time who rolled her eyes as Esme guided Jake to the big love seat to sit down and eat. The large man agreed sitting down and began to stress eat by shoving the food in his mouth. "See why can't you be more understanding like Emse!" Jake said around a mouth full of food. Leah just shrugged her shoulders and looked down at her larger than life belly and smiled as she thought about what it would be like to watch them go out on their first dates.


Nessie smiled over at Seth again as he pulled up to Jakes house and put the car in park.

"He's waiting for me..." Seth said as they watched the curtain fall back into place.

"Probably..." Nessie laughed as she remained seated in her seat. She didn't want the night to end so quickly, if it was up to her they would just run away together and never be seen again.

"Come on before he rips down the door." Seth laughed and got out, he quickly made his way around the car to open her door and smiled as his girlfriend got out of the vehicle.

Does she knows Im her boyfriend? He questioned himself realizing he didn't want her to leave with doubt in her mind. Closing the door he took her hand in his and pulled her to rest under his arm as they walked up to the porch.

"Just so I'm clear... I'm your girlfriend, right?" Nessie asked beating him to the punch.

Letting out a sigh of relief Seth nodded his head and gave her a quick peck on the lips as he answered. "Damn straight." They both laughed as they came up the stairs and Nessie had hoped to get a little more time like they had in the woods when the front door came flying open to show a pissed off Jacob as he glared holes into Seth. Quickly dropping the arm that held Nessie close he watched as Jake pulled Nessie forward and into the house.

"Um goo-" Seth went to say goodnight when he was greeted with the door slamming in his face. He could hear as his sister and Rose were laughing and Nessie started yelling at Jacob.

"WHAT THE HELL!"

"What?" Jake replied as the front door opened again and Nessie pulled him inside. Leah had tears coming down her cheeks from laughing so hard while Rose smiled brightly next to her.

"What are you doing home so early?" Leah asked.

"The jig is up Dad knows Im not at school he called and I have to go home." Nessie sighed flopping on the couch where Jake had been sitting. Seth went to follow when Carlisle came out from the back room putting his cellphone away.

"I'll come with you Sweetheart, I need to fill in at the hospital."

"Is everything ok?" Jake and Leah asked concerned that he was leaving them so soon.

"Doctor Hampton fell off his bike and sprained his wrist. I'll be back the minute they find a replacement." Carlisle said grabbing his keys off the coffee table, in a blink Esme was by his side with their suitcases packed. With a frown Leah looked up at the woman and asked. "You're going to?"

Nodding Esme came and gave her hug. "I have a few things I want to grab for the nursery at the house."

Leah only nodded her head as she panicked a little at not having Carlisle there, not that she doubted her husbands ability to deliver the babies she just liked having the comfort of knowing that Carlisle had hundreds of years of practice. Sensing her discomfort Carlisle came over and sat down next to Leah, wrapping his arm around her shoulder he pulled her close and promised. "Stop worrying we'll be back long before the babies are born I promise."

"What if I go into labor before you get back?" She asked as Esme came to sit on her other side. "Then we will drop everything and be down here in a flash. It takes less than five hours for us to run down here from Calgary."

Letting out a deep breath Leah nodded with an uneasy smile. Rose rolled her eyes and smacked Jake's arm as she joked to him. "You'd think she'd remember that we've both had medical training..."

Jake only snorted but didn't admit that he felt uneasy with the idea that the doctor and his wife were leaving them so soon...
