Chapter 7: Jacob

Nessie's POV

I was scared. I had no idea where I was being taken. I just wanted to go back home with my momma and my daddy.

"I want to go home!" I cried.

The vampire that had kidnapped me slapped me really hard. I cried out from the pain.

"Shut up you stupid little girl!"

"Where are you taking me?"

"I swear to God if she wasn't a hybrid I'd just kill her already,"

I sat up now wide awake. My heart was beating fast and I was breathing hard. It was just a dream. One scary dream. I was safe.

It took me a moment to gather myself. That's when I realized that one of my babies was crying. I got out of bed and walked over to their crib. The Cullens really were a generous family to say the least. They had really gone out of their way to buy everything we needed.

Aiden was still asleep as Owen cried. I kissed my son as soon as I'd picked him up. I changed his diaper and then sat down on the bed to nurse him.

An odd feeling settled over me as I sat their feeding my son. I wasn't quite sure what it was at first. Until I made a strange revelation. That feeling was peace. Whenever I'd fed my babies before I was also super stressed about something. Usually it was Robert finding me and then getting angry at me because I wasn't at work yet. He was not above ripping my babies away from me as I was finished nursing them.

This was different now. I could do what I needed to do without fear of getting in trouble just for simply feeding my babies. I could watch my son happily as he drank his fill for the next twenty minutes.

Aiden was just waking up as I finished feeding Owen. Then I repeated the cycle all over again. When I finished feeding Aiden I left my room with my babies and that's when I realized the house was empty.

I was startled when I heard a noise in the kitchen. I went in there expecting to see Esme but was surprised when I saw Jacob cooking stacks of pancakes.

There it was again. The inexplicable pull I'd felt when I first saw him was there again. It felt stronger now that we were alone together. But I didn't know what to say.

"Oh Nessie you're awake," he said as soon as he noticed my presence.

"Yeah I guess I am," I said stupidly. "Um where is everybody?"

"Carlisle had to go to work. The girls decided to go on some shopping spree. They would've invited you but they didn't want to wake you up. Emmett and Jasper...well I'm not sure what they're doing actually. So it's just you and I today,"

I was sure it was just my imagination but it felt like the room temperature when up ten degrees when he said you and I today.

"Oh,"

"Unless you want me to leave. Then I will,"

"No. I want you to stay," I blushed as soon as the words were out of my mouth.

He smiled at me. My heart skipped a beat. "Well I'm just about finished making breakfast. I hope you like pancakes. You go ahead and sit down. I'll serve them for you,"

"I've never had them,"

"Never?" he looked at me in disbelief.

"You don't often come across food like pancakes when you're homeless,"

He sighed. "I'm sorry. Sometimes I forget,"

"Don't worry about it," I said as I sat down at the table. He placed the plate of food right in front of me.

"Do you need help? I can hold them for you while you eat if you'd like,"

"You're too kind Jacob," I said.

"Well kind is my middle name," he responded as he took Aiden and Owen from me. I gasped when his skin touched mine. His skin was burning.

"Are you okay Jacob? You feel like you have a fever?"

"It's nothing you need to worry about. I just run a higher temperature than normal,"

I bit into my first pancake. The flavor filled my mouth. It tasted so good. "Thanks Jacob this tastes really good,"

"It is my pleasure Nessie,"

I tried to think of something else to say to him. Something that didn't make me sound stupid. When I looked at him I became all flustered again and I couldn't think straight. Except well he did look incredibly sexy when he was holding my babies.

"Nessie I was thinking. Well would you like to go out with me today?"

I almost choked on my food. "What did you just say?" because surely I couldn't have heard him correctly.

"Would you like to go out with me today? I was thinking that we could spend the day together. You, me, and these two little guys right here,"

"Well, I, um, huh?" I couldn't form a single coherent sentence or thought to save my life. He must have thought that I was stupid. "I mean um yes. I'd love to," I must have been as red as a tomato.

"I like it when you blush. I'm going to have to find ways to make you blush more often,"

"You're the only person I've met that's ever made me blush so easily and I barely even know you," I admitted.

He sat closer to me and grabbed my arm. It felt as if an electric current had passed through us through that one little physical contact. I liked it. I liked being so close to him. He was like a magnet to him.

"So what would you like to do today?" he asked me. I was breathless.

It was impossible to think clearly when he was looking at me like that. Maybe if he'd just wear a shirt I'd actually be able to unclutter my jumbled thoughts.

"We could go to the park and just hang out I guess. Unless that sounds boring to you?"

"That sounds nice actually. As long as you allow me to take you out to dinner afterwards,"

"I'd like that very much,"

"Me too,"

He really did seem happy. There was something that I was very confused about though. Why was he bothering with me? Why me out of all the girls in the world? Surely he could do better than a 17 year old girl who already had two babies to care for?

I heard a sound that I hadn't heard in a long time. Giggling. Jacob was smiling and tickling my babies. He was making them laugh. It was the first time I'd ever heard them laugh. It warmed my heart.

"You're really good with babies I see," I said. "This is the first time they've ever laughed,"

"I don't know about all that. But I really like your little guys,"

I took a deep breath. He noticed that something was bothering me right away. "Nessie what's wrong?" he looked worried.

"I'm just wondering you're even bothering with a girl like me. That's all. You can do so much better than me. A 17 year old with twin babies,"

He looked mad. "Nessie I like you. That's why. You're exactly the girl that I want to be with. It doesn't matter to me that you have babies. Besides I really like them. Maybe as much as I like their mother. It doesn't bother me at all,"

"For most guys that would be a turn off,"

"Well Nessie you'll quickly learn that I am not most guys," His voice rang with so much sincerity that I couldn't doubt him.

After we both finished eating breakfast we got ready to leave for the park. I was thrilled at the prospect of hanging out with Jacob all day.

"Jacob what do you have against shirts?" the words were out of my mouth as soon as I saw him waiting for me downstairs.

"It's simple. I prefer not to wear them,"

"Oh. Okay," I blushed for the hundredth time that morning. He laughed. Damn my lack of filter!

We continued to talk after we left. The questions didn't stop once we'd gotten to the park. He asked me a lot of questions about what my life was like growing up. He didn't like what I had to say at all. I think it made him sad actually.

"I'm sorry Jacob maybe I shouldn't be telling you all of this," I said after I finished telling him about what it was like to be homeless during the winter time. Winters were brutal in Chicago.

"No," he disagreed. "I'm glad that you trust me enough to tell me all of this. Even if I don't like hearing about how much you've suffered,"

"Well now it's my turn to ask you some questions. What was your life like growing up?"

"Not much to say really. I grew up on the Quileute reservation in Washington with my dad and my two older sisters. My mom died when I was young. I barely remember her,"

"I'm sorry about that,"

"Nessie do you mind if I leave you alone for a few minutes? I need to use the restroom,"

"No go ahead. I'll be alright. Just don't leave without telling me,"

"I'd never do such a thing Nessie. I'll be back in a few minutes,"

"Well it's about time he left," I jumped when a voice that didn't belong to Jacob spoke. With pure dread I recognized the voice as one that belonged to a completely different man.

"Remember me Renesmee?" I felt like fear like no other when Alfonso stepped in front of me. He noticed my babies and smiled widely. "What do you know? You conceived that night and wow not one but TWO boys. Perfect. Just perfect,"

I gripped my babies tightly. The memory of Alfonso and all of his friends raping me played in my mind.

"What a surprise indeed. I wish Robert would have told us about this. We would've taken them the second we found out you had boys. I wouldn't care so much if you would have had daughters,"

"You can't have them," I said in a voice that sounded as scared as I felt. He laughed.

"Watch me,"

I screamed when he yanked Aiden and Owen away from me. He knocked me over and ran as fast as he could with them. My babies cried out for me.

"Nessie what happened?!" I could hear Jacob's panicked voice.

"My babies! He took them!"

"Who?!"

"He's gone!"

"Where did he go?!"

"He's gone Jacob. He's-"

"Which direction did he go in?!" Jacob was shook with fury.

"That way," I pointed in the direction that Alfonso ran.

I was a mess. My babies were gone. He'd taken them. What was I going to do now?! How was I going to get them back?! Also where was Jacob?

Then to my complete and utter shock I saw Jacob coming back with both of my babies.

"Here you go Nessie," he said as he handed them over to me.

"Oh my God they're okay!" I kissed the two of them over and over again. "Thank you Jacob. Thank you so much! But how did you get them back?! That guy was so big and-"

"That doesn't matter," he answered quickly. "The babies are okay. That's all that matters,"

"Thank you Jacob," I cried as I hugged him. "Thank you so much,"
