It had been three days. since he'dbeat up the wolves. and now here he was sitting next to

the most beautiful woman in the world. Zafrina. they were talking about there lives. She was like him

She didn't really like to socialize only choosing to spend her time with her

sisters. for the most part. and given Her ability she would be the protector of her coven

just like he'd tried to protect Bella He thought about the wolves again

beating them had came with a heavy price. Nessie wasn't speaking to him.

She considered Herself part of the pack's. and She was furious Charlie had

attacked them. he hadn't even done that much damage really.

He'd broken Sam's nose. and knocked out Paul. and anyway Carlisle had treated

them. hell Jared hadn't even been hit. He watched as Nessie came in the house with Jacob and Her parents

Nessie sat on one of the chairs pointedly not looking at Charlie "yep, she's got Her mother's temper for sure" He thought

"hey dad" said Bella sitting next to him on the Cullen's couch. on the opposite side to Zafrina.

"whats up Bells?" he asked She shrugged "nothin much. you have any plans for today

"just gonna sit here might go for a hunt later, why" he asked

"I was hoping you would take Nessie fishing for a few days" She asked

Nessie for her part just snorted then Edward spoke up. "Nessie, I need to talk to you. for a second follow me" he said

she didn,t look happy but she did what she was told. and followed her father. out the back

did vampires fish he wondered after five minutes they came back ok grandpa let's go fishing" she sighed

"but Jacob's coming he sighed meting her eyes "fine" he said too" she added in a tone that brook no argument

She went over to Zafrina and put her hand on the woman's face.

once it was over. Zafrina hugged Nessie "I'll be here when you get back my dear Nessie" She said sweetly

then they left for Charlie's house to get the fishing rods and stuff

they decided to run on foot. Jacob had shifted and Nessie had climbed onto his back

it only took them a minute to reach Charlie's front door. He looked over at the for sale sign.

Alice had organised the sale as his proxy. she had even taken care of Charlie's job.

He was now officially unemployed. as far as everyone knew He'd beaten the cancer .

but had decided to retire which to be fare wasn't a lie. He pick the key out of his pocket and unlocked the front door.

they walked into the house. he went out back to where he kept his fishing gear.

he picked up his rod he found an old spare for Jacob. then He remembered something he looked around

trying to fine what he was looking for he finally found it. It was Bella's old fishing rod. She had barely ever used it.

despite having bought it some fifteen years ago it was pretty much brand new.

He called Nessie over to him "this was you mother's once. but She didn't like fishing" He said try

She smiled at him. just a little. once he had everything including a tent that Edward had given him and his tackle box they left the house
