Nessie's POV
"Hey Nessie," Leah said as her and Daniel walked into the kitchen.
"Hey Leah," I smiled as I noticed the beautiful light yellow sun dress she had on and the little purple flowers she had pinned in her perfectly curled long flowing black hair. "Ready for the party I see," I smiled as she nodded joyfully.
"Yup, Alice did a house wide sweep while you Edward and Jake went for a run," she winked at me as Carillie took a seat next to me.
"Hi Carillie," Leah finally said after a few moments of silence.
"Hello," she said shyly trying to remember Leah's name.
"Leah," she responded before the tension in the room got thicker.
"Right," Carillie said as she let out a small yawn. "I do apolo-" Carillie started to say before Leah interrupted her.
"No need," she said bluntly before stomping out of the room.
"She has a problem trusting people," I said politely after we heard Leah stomping up the stairs and into what seemed like Aunt Rose's room?
"I understand," Carillie said before yawning once more.
"Are you ok?" I asked after noting her second yawn in the past 5 minutes.
"I'm sorry I don't mean to be rude, it's just that I was taking a nap after Alice made me change into this," she said as I noticed the long brown and white sundress she had on. "When I heard a loud crash down stairs," she said fiddling with a strand of her hair.
"Oh I'm sorry! That was Alice, she was uhm.. mad to say the least, when she realized she was behind schedule." I laughed as I recalled Aunt Alice throwing Jacob across the living room when she had a vision of the party being delayed for a few minutes.
"Oh she really doesn't joke with parties does she?" Carillie asked in a shocked tone.
"No she doesnt," I said quietly to myself as Jacob walked into the kitchen.
"Hey Ness," he said as he kissed me lightly on the lips, "you ready for the party?"
"Of course," I smiled at him as I gave him peck on the lips. "And from what I heard I'm sure you are too?" I laughed as we quickly realized that we were now alone in the kitchen.
"Where'd Carillie go?" Jacob whispered quietly in my ear.
"No idea," I said deepening our kiss. "You really have to stop with the whispering in my ear Jake," I said as he lifted me off of the kitchen chair and onto the kitchen table.
"Or what," he said as I wrapped my arms around his neck.
"Or her father will kill you," my dad said as he leaned against the door frame.
"Dad," I shrieked jumping off of the kitchen table.
"Renesmee," he said shooting a glare at Jacob.
"It's time!" Alice shrieked before my father could say anything else.
"Oh thank goodness!" I yelled grabbing Jacob and running out of the back door.
"Ok everyone listen!" Alice yelled as everyone quietly walked into the backyard. "They'll be here in 20 minutes, be sure to be very quiet. I'm gonna bring Kai into the house and get her ready," she said as everyone sighed, "don't you dare give me that sigh you all should know me by now!"
"We know," Jacob said grudgingly as he wrapped his arms around my shoulders.
"You especially Jacob Black," she glared as the pack as well as Aunt Rose, my mother and father let out a loud laugh.
"Go on Aunt Alice. You only have 20 minutes till the get here," I said as I rubbed soothing circles on the palm of his hand.
"Right," she said her voice going back into business mode. "As I said when they get here I will rush her to my room, get her ready and when I take off the blindfold," she said before Uncle Emmett interrupted here.
"And we yell surprise!" He boomed as he threw Taylor into the air catching him before Emily went into a panic. "You think we haven't thrown a surprise party before," he laughed as Alice glared at him.
"Rose," Alice said in a slightly irritated voice.
"Well he's right," she said examining her perfectly manicured nails, "we have done this before. I think we know what to do when you take off the blindfold"
"Fine then," Alice said as she crossed her arms. "15 minutes! And Emmett Cullen don't you dare pull any pranks while you're waiting."
"I'm" Uncle Emmett started to say before my father cut him off.
"Don't try and play innocent Em, she saw this a few hours ago and already hid the water baloons you hid under the patio." My father laughed as Uncle Emmett huffed.
Jacob's POV
"So when are you due?" Nessie asked Rachel as everyone sat in various spots around the backyard. She smiled at Rachel as I played with the hem of her light green sun dress, I laughed quietly to myself as I realized the tones of her dress went so well with my dark gray t-shirt.
"Actually I'm over due now," she said rubbing her stomach so gently and smiling at the both of us. "The doctors said I was supposed to give birth a yesterday, but," she said smiling at Paul, "no babies."
"Maybe they just loved the home you made for them," Emily laughed as she took a seat next to Sam.
"Look who's talking 'Mrs. I'm due a week before Rachel'," Sam laughed.
"Has the time really gone by that fast?" Nessie asked as she curled up onto my lap.
"I guess it has," I said as I played with a loose strand of her hair.
"They're here!" Alice yelled as we heard Seth's truck speeding down the driveway.
"Seth why's everyones cars still here?" Kai asked as Alice pressed her index finger on her lips and ran through the house.
"Oh uhm the pack probably ran everyone home," he said as we heard him helping her out of the truck.
"Kai!" We hear Alice yell before rushing her up the stairs.
"Sorry baby girl," Seth laughed as we heard Kai put up a small fight. "You know I wouldn't let you go unless I trusted Alice," he said as he quickly ran into the backyard.
"Hey guys," he said as everyone fell silent. "Thanks for doing this," he said as Edward nodded, "I really couldn't do this without any of you."
"It's no problem Seth," Paul said, "just so long as you treat her right."
"Course I will!" Seth said nervously as we all laughed at his awkwardness.
"Common man," I said joining him on the patio. We laughed as I was taken back by the people that stood before us: vampires, werewolves and humans all peacefully, for the most part at least, coinciding.
If someone were to tell me about this picture when I first started phasing I would've never believed them, but now after everything we've all have been through together and separately, it seemed right. As I was scanning through the crowd my eyes landed on Bella, Edward had his hands wrapped around her waist and whispered into her ear as she looked up and smiled at me. I smiled back at her as I found the one girl that held me to this planet, Nessie. I smiled at her as she whispered into her mothers ear, Nessie and Bella, how could those two bring so many people together? How two people can affect so many lives, for the best, simply by just being here with the ones they love the most. It was amazing to be apart of their lives. I was lucky, I thought to myself as Edward looked at me and shot me a smile.
"She's coming!" Nessie said snapping me out of my awe as we saw Alice leading a blindfolded Kai through the living room.
"Ok Kai," Alice said as she positioned her in the exact spot I was standing a few seconds ago. "I'm going to take off the blindfold," she aid as Kai nodded impatiently.
"Surprise!" We all yelled as her eyes grew wide and she literally jumped into Seth's arms.
"Happy birthday Kai!" Nessie and Claire yelled as they both pushed past the pack.
"Oh My God," was all Kai could say for a few minutes.
"Once again, happy birthday Kai," I smiled when I was finally able to extend my greeting towards her.
"Thanks Jake!" She shrieked as I pulled her into a hug, "I can't believe all of you did this for me! I mean you guys have more than enough to worry about," she said as Carlisle and Esme came forward.
"It was no trouble at all," Esme said as she pull Kai into a hug. "You of all people know how much we love parties," Esme said as Carlisle hugged them both.
"You're family Kai, it's what we would do for any of our family," he said as he let out a small chuckle, "well everyone except for Bella. You know how much she hates parties," they laughed as Bella playfully wrinkled her face.
"You my future sister-in-law," Bella said jokingly, "are more than welcome. I would go through a thousand more surprise parties so long as they have that same expression in your eyes," she said as Alice's face lit up.
"You really mean that Bella!?!" She shrieked from Jasper's lap.
"Don't get any ideas Alice," Edward said as it was his turn to greet her.
"You have been like a sister to Nessie since day one," he said as he pulled Bella into his arms, "and for that we should be the ones thanking you. You have grown into a lovely young lady, Nessie and the rest of us, especially Seth, are lucky to have you in our lives."
"Edward!" Kai blushed, "I think it should be the other way around. Without Nessie, Claire, Paul and all of you and especially Seth, I wouldn't be here." She said as she looked over the party in awe.
"Quit it Edward before she ruins her make-up!" Alice yelled as we all bursted into laughter.
"Always a party-pooper," Emmett said as the pack and I devoured the food set up along the patio.
"Here! Here!" Seth jokingly agreed as I wrapped one arm around Nessie and used my other to attack the mountain of food in front of me.
Nessie's POV
"I can't believe you guys!" Kai shrieked as Claire and I managed to smear frosting all over her face.
"Happy birthday!" We both yelled as our family and fiends managed to temporarily blind the three of us from the camera flashes.
"Common you two I want a picture with her too!" Seth pouted as Jacob rolled his eyes.
"Let him get in this Ness," he said as he flashed me his best smile. I gave him a look of defeat as Seth joyfully ran past us.
"Seth!" Kai yelled as Mama Esme managed to swiftly cut the cake into equally big pieces for the pack and a few "normal" sized pieces for everyone else.
"Did you want a piece Grandpa Charlie?" I said as Jacob and I helped distribute the pieces.
"I rather spend time with my lovely granddaughter," he laughed as I handed the cake filled plates to Jake and took a seat next to Grandpa.
"Well consider this your lucky day," I smirked as Sue smiled at the both of us.
"How are you enjoying the party?" I asked as I rested my head on my Grandfathers shoulder.
"Its fun," he said awkwardly, "you know I'm not really much of a party person though."
"I know Grandpa," I laughed as I recalled the countless times Grandpa looked for excuses to get out of going to parties. "But I'm glad you came still," I smiled as he nodded.
"Anything to see my favorite granddaughter," he smiled as we saw Jacob and Jasper eyeing Roberto's every move. "What's up with those two?" Grandpa said acknowledging Jacob and Jasper's guard like moves.
"Need to know Grandpa," I smiled to him as he let out a deep sigh.
"Stupid need-to-know," he mumbled unaware that most of us can hear him perfectly clearly. "So you and Jacob look pretty comfortable," he said trying to break the awkward silence.
"More than you know Grandpa," I smiled as I caught him staring at me.
"Hmph. Your mother's already had that talk with you right?" Grandpa Charlie asked awkwardly.
"What do you mean?" I asked trying to sound as innocent as possible. Of couse she hasn't had the talk with me, but of course my father, Uncle Jasper, Uncle Emmet and Papa Carlisle have taken that tasks off of my mothers hands. Papa Carlisle's talk being the least awkward one out of the four.
"Good, you're too young anyways," he mumbled as we watched the party buzz with excitement.
Jacob's POV
I watched Nessie and Charlie talk for a 20 minutes, while constantly keep mental tabs of Roberto and his whereabouts.
"Hey Jake wanna switch?" Embry asked as Esme insisted that Charlie and Sue bring home some food that could probably feed them for a week.
"Switch?" I asked partially taken off guard by his question.
"Yeah you and Jasper's been watching Roberto all night. Quil and I could take over for a while so you guys can join in on the party." He said as I saw Nessie walk Charlie and Sue to their cars.
"Yeah sure," I said as I signaled for her to bring Charlie and Sue here.
"Hey Jake I was just going to walk Grandpa Charlie and Sue to their car. What's up?" Nessie asked as Charlie hugged Bella goodbye and Sue smiled brightly at me.
"Nothing I just wanted to see if you needed company walking them to the car," I asked as she raised an eyebrow at me. I smiled at her as I pointed toward Embry and Quil who were now watching Roberto from the edge of the pool.
"Sure," she smiled as the four of us walked through the patio doors.
"Since I'm off leech watch," I said as we watched Charlie's squad car make it's way up the driveway.
"Mhmm," she said as she buried her head into my chest, soft music from the sound system in the back filling the air.
"I wanted to know if you'd like to dance," I smiled as she looked up at the sky, the stars enhancing the beauty of her eyes.
"Well I'll have to think about that," she smirked as I gave her a disappointed face.
"Ness," I nagged as we slowly started to sway back and forth.
"Jake," she teased as she looked up into my eyes. I stared back into them and was completely lost in those beautiful brown eyes. My hand traced her face, every inch of that beautiful face carved into my brain, into my heart, my soul. Every inch of my memory, every part of me was hers and only hers.
"I love you Nessie," I whispered as we swayed back and forth under the starlight.
"I love you too Jacob," she smiled as her lips touched mine.
"Hey lovebirds," Leah smirked from the front door. "If it wasn't for Edward and the whole mind reading thing, we could've sworn you guys escorted Charlie and my mom all the way back to Forks."
"No Leah," I said as Nessie laughed at the irritation in my voice, "we were just having a moment alone."
"Mhm," she said as we saw Daniel's silhouette lingering behind her. "Well I better tell the rest of them to all of the search party," she laughed as we heard the pack laughing.
"Common let's go enjoy the party," Nessie said as she dragged me towards the house.
"Mmm, can't we have just five more minutes alone?" I nagged as she sighed and pulled out her cell phone.
"We've been out here for 30 minutes Jake," she smiled as she laced her fingers with mine. "Common, we should enjoy the party with our family and friends," she said as she batted her eyelashes in a way she knew I couldn't resist.
"Ok, ok you win," I sighed as we reached the patio doors.
Nessie's POV
"Thank you guys so much," Kai said as she hugged the last of Jared's pack goodbye. "You guys... well the imprints, I mean, are more than welcomed to stay the night," Kai said as Alice told us about the sleepover.
"As much as I would love to," Emily said as Sam and Jared carried a sleeping Taylor and Leila, "the kids are completely knocked out."
"I'd love to too," Kim said as she helped Jared open Sam's van door, "but I have to work tomorrow afternoon and I know how you girls are at these sleepover." She finished as all of us tried to muffle our laughs as we remembered the last imprint sleepover.
"Well thanks anyways for coming up here," Kai said as I pulled Kim into a hug.
"No problem," Kim said as she closed Sam's van. "You know we miss seeing you on the Rez Nessie," she said as Jared and Jacob were discussing the patrolling schedule for tonight.
"I know. I miss you guys too," I said as Jared ran to us in his wolf form. "I promise the second this Huilen business is cleared up I will make La Push the first place I visit."
"Good," Kim smiled as she climbed onto Jared's' back. "I guess we'll see you guys later," she said as the rest of the imprints climbed onto their wolves' backs.
"You sure you guys don't want us to drive you back?" My mother asked as Kim buried herself in Jared's fur.
"No Bella! I've told you a thousand times today we don't want to make you all drive back and fourth, besides after the amount of food they ate today, these boys need some exercise," she laughed as Jared growled at her playfully.
"You all be safe now," Mama Esme said as she placed a large box full of food in the trunk of Sam's van. "I packed you some more food as well, Emily knows exactly how to warm them up," she said as Emily smiled at her.
"Well that should do it," Same said as he climbed into the divers side of his van. "We'll see you guys soon," he smiled as Tacita, Viveca, Carillie and Roberto watched from the patio.
"Have a safe trip everyone," I said waving to Sam and Emily's van and all of the wolves and the imprints ready to take off.
"See ya!" Leah yelled as they all ran into the forest and left out simultaneous wolf howls.
"Common ladies," Alice said calling our attention, "I believe there's a sleepover to start." She finished as she smiled at each of us.
"Oh no," I groaned as Alice led all seven of us girls towards the guesthouse.
"Uhm aren't you forgetting some peole?" Claire asked as Tacita, Viveca and Carillie attempted to help Mama Esme clean up the backyard.
"Oh! Tacita, Viveca and Carillie you three put those plates down and come over here right this instant," Alice demanded as they all willingly dropped what they were doing. "You three are all included in this sleepover and there will be no objections," she said as Viveca opened her mouth to object.
"Don't worry ladies," Mama Esme said to them as Uncle Emmett, Uncle Jasper and my father picked up where they left off, "I have these three to help me clean." They all smiled at her and shyly started to walk towards us, each avoiding the glare coming off of Leah.
It's gonna be a long night I thought to myself as my father chuckled.
"From the things going on in Leah's head, it is," my father laughed.
"Here we go again," I sighed to myself fully aware that a majority of the sleepover party heard me.
