Chapter 4

I felt Nessie stiffen as we both turned our heads unwillingly to the voice that belonged to none other than Mike Jr. The red head that had been hitting on Renesmee earlier was standing next to Mike Jr. they were both smiling at us, Mike Jr. had same flirty smile he was wearing when he first saw me. I wondered how Mike Jr. knew my daughter, but then again, this was a small school. Time hadn't changed that. Edward and Jacob stood in front of us, blocking the boy's view of us.

"Do you guys want to hang out after school?" The red head asked us.

"They have plans." Jake said in a low voice.

"Hey, let them speak for themselves!" Mike Jr. complained to him.

"Leave. Now." Edward said in deadly voice. I was surprised, to say the least, I've never seen him so angry at a human before. I shuddered at the thought of having to read their minds.

Suddenly, I felt a ripple of fear go through me. I turned around to see Jasper and Alice leaning against the wall behind us, Jasper seemed to be concentrating on something. Alice winked at me.

I heard the sound of two hearts beating rapidly, and I turned just in time to see Mike Jr. and the red head scurry off like a worm from a bird.

Edward had a disgusted look on his face. He turned around to quickly for a human and took Nessie by her shoulders, looking into her beautiful brown eyes.

"I want you to stay away from them. Do you hear me?" Edward said in a stern 'parental' voice. Renesmee nodded numbly in response. I think she understood the fact that they didn't have good intentions.

Emmett and Rosalie had finally gotten out of the closet. There clothes were wrinkled and a bit tattered. They both had sheepish expressions on their faces. I took hold of Edward's hand and led him to the bleachers, where we could be alone.

"What where they thinking?" I questioned him.

His golden eyes were scorching as he said, "You don't want to know."

I shuddered again. I knew that they could never hurt me, but I hated the thought of them hurting Nessie. She was a tad naive when it came to humans, she thought of them as babies. Which they were, compared to us, anyway. That wasn't any reason to act comfortable around them, though. Renesmee was still stronger than an average human, yet not nearly as strong as a vampire.

Edward took me away from my thoughts when he grabbed hold of my hand, "What's wrong?" he asked.

I sighed. "Nothing, really. I was just thinking about Nessie, about how naïve she is to the human world. I think we should have waited another decade or so for school." Though my voice was grave, he laughed.

He saw the expression on my face and calmed down immediately. "You sound like an over protective mother," he explained in a light voice, "I think she's ready, though she is naïve. She does know the rules. No hanging out with humans, no skin-to-skin contact with them, and she is not allowed to show them her visions."

"But what if she gets hurt?" I asked, fretting again.

"She won't, not with us around." He seemed sure of this. So, I gave up.

"Fine, if you're sure, I won't worry about it anymore." I said to him in defeat. He was right; none of us would ever let anything happen to her. He smiled a dazzling smile and leaned in to kiss my lips, right when the bell rang for our last class.

-----------------------

Sixth period was one of the only classes I didn't have with Edward. He walked me to class, giving me a peck on the cheek before he turned and walked to his Calculus class. I sighed, walking into my Home Economics class.

Thankfully, I had Home Ec with Alice, Rose and Nessie. This is going to be an interesting class I mused. I spotted them at a round table in the middle of the room. I sat across from Nessie, Alice on my right, Rose to my left.

As the bell rang, a plump woman came walking into the room wearing an apron that read Kiss the cook! I glanced at Alice, expecting her to comment on the woman's wardrobe. Instead, she just shook her head silently. I imagined she was trying to think of fashionable clothes that would be better for her figure.

The plump woman introduced herself as Ms. Briggs. Apparently, she was going to teach us how to cook. I snorted at this, I already knew how to cook, and Rose and Alice did too. Renesmee perked up, she had wanted to learn how to cook for Jacob's sake.

Alice, Rose and I passed notes around the table. Even though we could've easily spoken to each other, we didn't want to disturb Nessie. Who was taking notes rather feverishly. An hour or so passed, and school was over.

The guys met us outside of the classroom door, were they took hold of our books and bags. On our way to the parking lot Jake and Nessie were arguing over the fact that Jacob was acting like an 'Over protective monkey'. To this, Jacob flung Renesmee over his shoulder, and started making monkey noises and picking for fake bugs from her hair. He looked like a fool, but at least she started laughing.

Edward and I took the Volvo, while the others divided amongst themselves. The drive home was relaxing; Edward was playing Yurima's CD. I closed my eyes as I let 'The River Flows in you' fill my senses. This was as close as I could ever get to sleeping. When I was human I used to think sleeping was a waste of time. But after living decades without sleep, I thought otherwise. On the plus side, I can spend my sleepless nights with Edward. I heard the tires turn onto the familiar drive; I opened my eyes to see the huge house that I called home.

Edward was at my door in a second opening it for me, he was still a gentlemen. I smelt an unfamiliar scent; I looked at Edward with a confused expression on my face. He just draped his arm around my shoulders as we walked into the garage; the others had already gone inside.

We quickened our pace when we heard Jacob growling.

Well, there it is! I hope you guys are enjoying my story.

I apologize for the shortness of this chapter. Read and review please!
