thanks literaturesoccer enthusiast for faving , do leave a review !

Charlie was shocked on hearing his daughter say him like that without any fear ,he composed himself.

He had to think fast, even if he agreed there was no guarantee he would leave his daughter and his officers unharmed if he agreed to his demands. He had to think about Jacob too who was being held by Riley's two men. Before he could talk with his deputy, riley raised his gun and fired in the air. Bella taking the chance, kicked him at his ankle with her wedge which had pointed edges. .

He hissed but managed to save himself from falling. but he could not stop his gun from falling on the ground. she snatched it before he could and shouted the men who were holding Jacob to leave him , otherwise she would kill him . She fired towards Riley's leg which missed him very closely.

Bella went near the men who were holding jacob . they were looking at their boss who was suddenly overpowered by the officers. In all this mess, Charlie had very cleverly made his men surround them. The men surrendered as they came out with their hands raised as instructed by the police .

Bella rushed towards Jacob and opened his knots . Suddenly they were surrounded by a thick smoke , she took Jacob's hand in hers as they made their way from the car while holding their nose.

She prayed that she didn't fall asleep as she ran away with Jacob .Thankfully Charlie's men had handcuffed the men as all of them were coughing, trying their best to stay awake. But it was of no avail, in the middle of the chaos she noticed Riley running away .

"How are you feeling now?" Bella asked her dad as she placed a plate of banana crepes laden with ample chocolate sauce on the table. "Yeah, I am okay. Just feeling little sleepy "as he dug in one of the crepes. "I am sorry .That guy got away, kiddo" Charlie said in a gruff voice. "Don't worry, you saved me and Jacob" she tried to cheer up her dad. He didn't knew that riley was part of big drug cartel. If he knew that , he was going to chew her off for poking her nose in danger.

" you know you were pretty much close in putting him behind bars. He will not escape so easily next time " Bella said as she sat down taking her share of crepes .

"You were so brave, kiddo. I should have ..." he was cut off by his daughter's squeal. She was hitting Jacob's hand for stealing her crepes from her plate " you ..little thief "

"Nah ...You are little. Finish your food fast otherwise it's going to land in my stomach " Jacob grinned .

"Why don't you tell her the truth? "Renee asked him as she dug in her spinach leaves tacos.

"What are you hiding?" Charlie asked with his mouth full of crepes.

"Jacob is coming with us for the ..." Renee was cut off by Bella's sudden screech . "Mom, have you forgotten what happened today?"

Surprisingly Charlie agreed that Jacob could join Bella and Renee at Sue's ancestral home in la push. Renee had decided not to take the road trip to Idaho with Sue to her friend's lakeside vacation home. She surprisingly excused herself and Sue .Both of them had decided to visit their friend next time. She could not muster courage to take her daughter so far away unprotected after waht had happened today .

At their first day, everyone was amazed by Sue's vacation home, as Leah called it as they settled down in the quaint little patio. "We do come here now and then, it seems fairly okay to me" Sue said as she put her daughter's black jacket in place that she had flung on the coffee table. Leah was looking wearing an orange dress and Renee had to admit she looked lovely in it. The colour suited her mocha complexion perfectly. She looked at her daughter and Jacob who were helping Leah in uncovering the white sheets that were draping some of the furniture in the hall. Jacob had already started the heating and the room seemed comfortable now.

"I am going to grab a quick shower before starting dinner" Bella yawned as she woke up from the afternoon nap. All of them felt asleep after lunch of BBQ chicken and carrot mash. Bella, Leah and Jacob were famished after the car ride to the patio and mini clean-a-thon.

"While you do that, I need to go for a run and burn off some energy. I don't like take outs too much! "Leah said as she rubbed her eyes.

"Okay" she muttered and saw Jacob was sleeping quietly in his room. She was lucky, now she could make the dinner without any distractions. He loved to annoy her by playing with food when she cooked.

Bella stood at the sink washing the veggies for dinner. She could see kids digging in the sand, people running in the evening. "After dinner, i am taking you and Jacob for a walk down on the beach " Leah said as she left the kitchen and was out from the door of the house.

Renee entered the kitchen and asked her as she was taking out the knife "where's Jacob?"

"Sleeping" she said as she started cutting the veggies."And Leah?" her mother asked her as she took out pots and pans for cooking.

"Went out for a run a little while ago.I assume she went down the beach. "Bella said as she put the veggies in the pan.

"No kidding, does Jacob eat like that at home too?" Renee asked as she saw sue coming inside the kitchen with her ears glued to her phone.

"Nope, he had been like that after he came home with me. He's still growing and needs strength after what he had gone through"

Jacob stumbled out of the house he almost tripped over the track for the sliding door. He was wearing his shorts and black sleeveless t shirt. He scratched the back of his head and then rubbed sleep from his tired eyes.

He had just a dream about his 17 th birthday before he woke with a start , whether it was real or dream .He was confused, but it had seemed too real.
Bella blushed as she saw on seeing him yawn cutely like this. she saw some of the couples walking hand in hand as she handed him a cup of coffee.
