AN: Hey, people!

Guess this update is just a filler. I'm sorry in advance. In case you are disappointed. Promise to update a good one tomorrow.

Thank you for reading, guys; for the reviews too. I love you guys so much.

Take care and stay safe. Happy Day!

Jake and I were on the way to college in his new Ducati, which Mom and Dad had gifted him for his birthday. It had been a big day for him. I remember the day he got it. Jasper had asked him to meet my Mom and Dad in the garage. He had walked down, with Jas, there casually, assuming that it was some car problem they had. But, he was so surprised to see the bike standing there and looked at Jasper.

"Oh, my God! That is the Ducati Testa Streta NCR Machia Nera," Jake and Jasper had yelled in unison that made the entire family come rushing down to the garage. He was excited so much that he hugged Dad and was trolling round the house with his bike happily like a little boy riding his first tricycle.

"Jacob, drive faster!" I whined, hitting his shoulders.

"Don't you love your boyfriend, Nessie? Why would you want him dead?" he asked me sarcastically.

"Oh, Dad will never know," I assured him but, he shook his head.

"Anyway, I am going faster. Faster than anybody else."

It was true. I was most definitely enjoying the ride but, I would enjoy it much more if he drove a bit faster. "Whatever. I am driving tomorrow," I said.

"You do not even know to ride a motorbike, Ness. I am not letting you drive," Jake said firmly.

"Oh, that is no problem. I'll learn it by evening," I said casually. "If you aren't going to teach me, I will never let you get into that damn Aubrie one more time."

He groaned. "Fine! Just don't get us caught."

I laughed. "Cool."

Jake, Ina and I were sitting in the cafeteria after a morning full of irritating classes. Ina and Jake were talking something for a long time, which I muted out and listened to the various sounds in the room. But, they were too normal and began boring me and I turned back to their conversation.

"Sue seems happy nowadays. Nessie's grandpa must be really sweet," Ina was saying.

"He is. And, Sue really deserves a good life," Jake said, his mouth full with food.

I hit his head. "How many times have I told you not to speak with your mouth full of food?!"

"OW! It hurts."

"Ness, aren't you gonna eat something? It has been days since you hunted," Ina asked and to which I waved a dismissive hand.

"I'd better starve than eat this crap."

"Then why do even pick them in the first place?" she asked pointing to the apple I had in my tray.

"It is just easy to pretend," I grinned sheepishly and she rolled her eyes.

"Hey, how about hunting after a school?" Jake asked me.

"Murder isn't on our agenda today," I joked.

Ina looked like she was going to be sick. "It isn't on anybody's agenda."

Jake laughed. "No, it's in ours. Not until Thursday, though."

I laughed and shook my head. "By the way, Jacob Black, we are going to a restaurant to dinner with my parents. Remember?" I raised my eyebrows.

"Oh, yes," he said looking at his. "Of course, I remember. I just wanted to, you know…"

I shot him a look and he smiled apologetically.

After class, we drove to the restaurant and found Mom and Dad waiting in the car outside.

"How may I help you, Sir?" a lady in the reception asked us, shooting an extra smile towards Dad. Mom hissed and Jacob and I laughed.

"A table for four, please," Dad answered. We followed the lady to the table and took our seats.

"When is this going to stop? Pretty, young girls drooling over you?" Mom muttered under her breath.

"You know I can't help it, Bella," Dad tried to reason with her. Mom sighed and crossed her arms across her chest. The lady came back with a bottle of champagne and filled our glasses. She had her eyes on Dad and it started grossing me out. I touched Jacob's cheek.

Will you do as I say?

Jacob nodded but looked at me puzzled.

Tell Dad and I quote, "Edward, let me take a picture of you and your wife. You look great together."

Jake laughed and nodded and I saw Dad's eyebrows crease. "Edward, let me take a picture of you and your wife. You look great together. Bella, move a little closer," he said, taking his phone to take the picture. I tried to control my laughter with a fixed smile on my face.

The lady stood awe-struck and looked back and forth at us. After, Jacob took the picture, she said, "Enjoy your evening. I'll get your waitress on the go."

"Thank you," Mom said, smiling at her and we burst out laughing after the lady went.

I saw a petite girl making her way to our table, her name badge reading Ashley.

"Good evening. I am Ashley. I will be your waitress for this evening. How can I help you?" she asked, her eyes fixed on Jake and Jake only.

What! I whined to myself and Dad laughed. Mom looked at me and Jake was stifling a bubbling laughter.

I am so gonna kill you, Jacob Black, I put the thought inside his head and he pursed his lips.

"Two mushroom raviolis and a pineapple cake," I said and she noted it down.

"Nothing for us," Dad said, speaking for himself and Mom.

"Anything else, Sir?" she asked once more, looking at Jake. I shot her a dirty look and I knew she would have got the answer for her question.

"You are gonna pay for this!" I hit Jacob several times in his arm.

"Hey, spare me. I am not the one who drooled over her. Besides, I can't help if she likes tall tan guys," he smirked and I narrowed my eyes with anger. "Sorry," he mumbled. I saw the waitress walking towards our table with the food and pulled Jacob into a kiss. I had not kissed him anywhere in public, let alone in front of my parents. But, that bitch had to know that he was mine. I broke the kiss and winked at him. She left the food before us silently and left us undisturbed. I saw Mom and Dad looking away and Dad's face was filled with utter awkwardness. Jacob leaned in closer and whispered in my ears. "Maybe we should come to restaurants more often. I mean, you haven't kissed me like that."

"Shut up, mutt. You are still making up for that situation," I said.

We drove home and I ran eagerly to Emmett. I sat excitedly on the couch beside him and he eyed me suspiciously. "What did you do?" he asked me and I laughed.

"Can I show you something?" I asked and without waiting for his answer, touched his cheek and showed him what had happened in the restaurant. Jacob, Mom and Dad followed me behind after parking.

"Awesome!" he said, his eyes popping out of his sockets.

"Should I know?" Jasper raised his eyebrows and Emmett nodded sincerely. I reached up to Jasper and showed him. "Wow, Ness, way to go!" Jasper patted my shoulders and laughed. I showed it to Rosalie, Alice, Esme and even Carlisle.

"Man," Emmett said to Dad. "Those girls were hot!" Rosalie and Mom hit him at the same time and Dad chuckled. "Hitting your brother is not very polite, Isabella!" Emmett complained.

"And so is telling something like that to a married man. Much more wrong when it is your sister's husband," she pointed out and he stuck his tongue out at her.

"Emmett!" Esme chided and he huffed.

"Esme, I will be leaving early today," Jake said and looked at Carlisle. "Actually, we spotted two newborns yesterday." My family stiffened and my jaw dropped. "Not a big issue. Sam was patrolling yesterday and they couldn't catch them. Those leeches were fast." I winced when Jake said leeches.

He mouthed sorry and continued. "Anyway we will take care. I will let you know if you need to interfere. Okay?"

"Okay, son," Carlisle said and Dad nodded at Jake.

I went to the backyard to say goodbye to Jacob. "It wasn't anybody that-,"

He cut me off. "Honey, don't worry. I would never let anything happen to you. And your family."

I hugged him. "Do you have to go?"

"I'm afraid I have to."

"Be safe, Jake. Please."

"Of course, sweetie. Don't worry. Sleep tight. Okay?" he said, planting a kiss on my forehead.

He ran behind a tree and phased into his wolf. He smiled his wolfy grin and licked my face from my hairline to my jaw. "Ew, Jacob. You are such a puppy!" I complained and he barked a laughter. I scratched behind his ears and he rested his big face on against my stomach. I kissed the top of his head. "Be safe. I love you."

The wolf howled and ran into the forest, turning to shoot one last glance at me before he went off to patrol. I ran to the cottage in vampire speed and sat on my bed texting Ina.

Me: Hey, I.

Ina: Jake's off to patrol?

Me: Yup.

Ina: That's why I'm getting a text from u. Lol.

Me: Oh, please.

Me: Done with homework?

Ina: Nope. Gonna.

Me: Gr8. Me too.

Ina: Hey, is something wrong with the pack? Seth seemed tense 2dy.

Me: Oh, no biggie. At least tat is wat Jake says. U don't need to know, thou.

Ina: Whatever. As long as Seth is fine, I am glad.

Me: Hmhmm.

Ina: Okay, then. Bye. Lots of work to do. Baby is gonna hustle.

Me: Hahhaa. Bye. Gn. XOXO.

Ina: Gn. XOXO.

Ina: P.S. it wud be really nice if yu send a picture of yur homework.

I laughed and pulled my hair into a bun. Okay, I texted her back.
