Chapter Two: "The Party"
Renesmee's POV
It was Thursday afternoon and I had agreed to go to the mall with Lana and Grace after school to buy a new outfit for Lana's party tomorrow night. I had plenty of stuff to wear but because Jacob was going to be there Lana said I had to buy something brand new even though he had only seen one of my outfits.
"How about this? It's hot" Lana said shoving an item of clothing into my face.
"It's also a belt" I said moving away from her.
"It's not a belt it's a dress" she said sounding miffed.
"Looks like a belt"
"She doesn't want to give him the idea that she is a slut" Grace intervened "How about this?" she offered and showed me something a little more me. It was a black strapless dress with white polka dots over it, something subtle and also something I knew I could move about in.
"Perfect" I smiled "I'll go and try it on"
"Okay fine go for the safe dress but you're at least wearing a pair of killer heels" Lana said, flicked her hair and went off of find me a pair of shoes. I was in the changing room getting changed when Grace spoke to me.
"Are you really just into him because you want to have sex with him?" she asked.
I shook my head even though she couldn't see me "No. I like him, he seems like a fun person to be around"
"Good. Because that's not you R. I just don't want you to lose yourself"
I popped my head around the curtain and smiled at her "I won't lose myself Grace. I know exactly where I am. I'm gonna stay here" I assured her and she smiled back. I closed the curtain again and finished getting changed. I looked into the mirror and fell in love with the dress "This is the dress" I said pulling back the curtain.
"Definitely" she smiled and clapped her hands.
"And the perfect shoes to match" Lana smiled as she skipped over to me. I looked at the shoes in her hand and almost fainted, I was never very good at walking in heels and these were heels. I just hope I don't fall over and make a fool of myself. That would be embarrassing "Try them on with the dress. You'll look so hot that Jacob will be walking around with a hard on all night"
"Lana" I hissed as the sales woman looked over at us.
"What?" she shrugged.
"You can't just shout that sort of stuff out" I said to her and she shrugged.
"Not my fault that these sales women have watched Pretty Woman one too many times" Lana said a little louder so the sales woman could hear. I disappeared back into the dressing room in embarrassment, I felt like I had to buy stuff worth $500 to apologise for my friend.
After I had gotten back from the mall I sat down to have dinner with Mom. Dad wasn't home from the hospital yet and probably wouldn't be until gone 8pm so it was up to either me or Mom to get dinner done.
"How was the mall?" Mom asked as she took another sip of her drink.
"Good. I bought a new dress and some shoes for Lana's party tomorrow" I answered as I pushed my food around my plate with my fork.
"But you have lots of dresses"
"I know but there is erm sort of a guy that's going to be there" I said quietly.
"You have a date?" she asked and I looked up to see her smiling "Who is the lucky guy?"
"His name is Jacob. He was the guy who fixed my car yesterday" I replied.
"The mechanic?" she asked scrunching her nose up "Aren't you a little out of his league sweetheart?"
"No. He's a nice guy. I like him" I shrugged.
"Hmm how old is he?"
"I actually don't know. He wouldn't tell me" I laughed at the thought of his answer when I asked him his age "He's not in high school though"
"Be careful Renesmee" she said finishing off her drink "I know what these older men are like. He'll try allsorts to get what they want. Just carry a condom with you, because sometimes they forget"
"Mom. I'm not going to have sex with him. Why does everybody think that?"
"it's a natural thing. Everybody does it"
"Well not me. I plan on waiting"
"For what exactly?" she laughed "A knight in shining armour. They don't exist honey bee"
"So you're telling me to just go and have sex with a stranger?" I asked and she shrugged her shoulders "What's happened to you? You're supposed to be warning me against casual sex but yet here you are encouraging me"
She waved her hand "It's the 21st Century. Besides if I told you to be careful you wouldn't listen to me. I may as well let you do what you want"
I shoved my plate away from me "I'm not even hungry" I said and stood up from the table "I've got homework to do" and I grabbed my plate, took it into the kitchen, scrapped the contents of it into the bin and put it into the dishwasher. I then went upstairs to my bedroom and locked the door behind me. I didn't have homework to do so instead I grabbed my iPod and laid down on my bed.
I wasn't disturbed by anybody for a few hours so when it turned 10pm I'm guessing that they had decided to leave me be. I switched off my iPod and put it on my side cabinet. I went into my bathroom and took a quick shower. I wrapped a towel around my body and walked back into my bedroom where I changed into a pair of shorts and a strappy top. I brushed my hair and let it dry naturally as I climbed into bed and switched my light off.
"Oh Edward. Oh my god Edward" Mom started shouting from the room next door "Harder, harder!" she shouted and I groaned.
I rolled over onto my stomach and pressed my face into my pillow and pulled the covers over my head to try and drown out the noise of my parents having sex.
"You like that huh?" Dad started shouting "You like me shoving my cock into your tight pussy huh?"
"Yes, yes!" she shouted back. Clearly the covers weren't protecting my ears from the scene playing out in the next bedroom. The bed started slamming against my wall, didn't they care that I slept in the same room? "Edward I'm coming!" Mom shouted followed by a huge scream and a few grunts coming from Dad.
"Fuck!" he shouted out and the noises stopped. I'm officially scarred for life right now, I don't think I can look at them ever again. Suddenly the noises started again, are you fucking kidding me? "That's it Bella, I love it when you ride me like that" Dad growled. That was enough for me, I climbed out of bed and put my dressing gown and Uggs on, grabbed my phone and left my bedroom and walked downstairs and outside into the garden.
I sat down on the swinging chair and started a new message to my Aunt Alice. I hadn't spoken to her in a few weeks. Her and my Uncle Jasper were in England on one of their yearly trips. Alice was my Dad's younger sister.
Not too sure about the time difference but you're awake right? I texted her and waited for her to reply back, she didn't instead she phoned me.
"What's up baby girl?" she said as I answered the phone.
"I have gross parents" I answered and she laughed "It's so not funny"
"I don't mean to laugh. I always remember my brother had stamina" she chuckled and I rolled my eyes "Where are you now?"
"Sitting outside on the swinging chair. it's the only place where I can't hear them" I replied "I thought parents were discreet about this type of thing?"
"When you have the urge you have the urge. I wouldn't worry they'll quieten down soon"
"I hope so" I sighed "How is your vacation?"
"Amazing Renesmee, absolutely amazing. You'd love England. We'll take you one day, perhaps before you start college"
"I'd like that" I smiled "What have you been doing?"
"Oh you know the usual. Seeing the sites, visiting old friends and of course shopping" she laughed.
"Of course" I laughed back "Hows Uncle J?"
"He's good. He found the History Museum in London and wants to visit it all of the time. He does that while I visit the shops" Uncle Jasper was a huge History buff. He loved studying all the different wars, the Civil War was his favourite. I don't really know why "I have something for you already. You're going to love it"
"What is it? Clothes? Shoes? A new handbag?"
"You'll have to wait and see Missy. We'll be coming home in a few weeks so you best be ready for me"
"I will be. Isn't it Grandpa's birthday in a few weeks?" I asked.
"Yes we'll be back a few days before that. So apart from their exciting sex life, how are your parents?"
"They're good. Dad has taken to his job really well and seems to be enjoying it. Mom on the other hand is just Mom" I sighed.
"Has she stopped drinking?"
"Dad seems to think she has but that's him be naïve. She drinks less but she's still drinking"
"She'll get better one day baby girl"
"I hope so"
"How are you and Nahuel doing?"
"Actually we broke up"
"What? When? You two were a perfect couple"
"Apparently he didn't think so. He thought that Catherine was better for him"
"He cheated on you?" she shouted "I'll rip his balls off and we'll see how he's going to bone people then"
"Alice its fine really. I'm okay. There is no need to castrate Nahuel" I laughed.
"And you're alright with everything?"
"Yeah. It was a little hard at first but I'm over it"
"I hear that tone. You've met someone haven't you? Tell me about him, what's his name?"
I smiled "His name is Jacob and he's really cute"
"Jacob huh? What does Jacob do for a living? Did you meet him at school?"
"No he's a mechanic. My car broke down yesterday and he fixed it for me. Lana invited him to her party tomorrow night"
"Like a date?"
"I don't know. Maybe" I shrugged "He did say he wants to figure me out"
"Figure you out? Oh he likes you"
"How can you tell?"
"If a guy was just after a quick romp between the sheets then he wouldn't bother trying to figure you out. He wants to get to know you Renesmee. It's a good sign"
"I know but he's older then me. Why would he want a seventeen year old?"
"You're almost eighteen. Besides your gorgeous, why wouldn't he want you?"
"You're just biased"
"And you have spent too much time with your Mother"
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing" she sighed "Just take it one step at a time okay. Go to the party tomorrow, flirt and have fun. Have you exchanged numbers?"
"Well he already had my number from the car but he gave me his"
"There you go then. Don't make me come and beat your little butt. Just enjoy tomorrow, you never know something might come of this"
"I hope you're right Alice because I really like him" I sighed.
During History class at school on the Friday my phone vibrated in my pocket. I grabbed it and saw I had a new message. I clicked on the little envelope.
Hi Nessie, its Jacob. Your friend didn't say what time to be at her house tonight. I was wondering if I could pick you up?
I smiled to myself. I looked up at my teacher to see he was distracted by teaching so I could reply back to Jacob.
The party starts at 7:30. I'm actually going to Lana's after school so I'll already be there. Thanks though.
I hit send and put my phone back into my pocket. Jacob didn't text me back until I was in the cafeteria.
No problem. I guess I'll see you later then.
Looking forward to it I text back and put a smiley face next to it and hit send. Why couldn't I be this flirtatious when I was around him? The rest of the school day went by quickly, which I was thankful for and I found myself in Lana's bedroom with Lana and Grace as we got ready for the party. It wasn't a special occasion or anything its just that Lana's parents were away for the weekend so naturally a house party had to be thrown.
"I can't believe you're actually making me wear these shoes" I grumbled as I sat on the edge of Lana's bed to strap up the dreaded shoes.
"Jacob's what? 6'7? You're going to need a little height, you can't expect him to get neck ache when you're making out" Lana answered.
"Who said we're going to be making out? He's coming to your party with his friends"
"That might be the case but he's coming here for you. When will you get that into that pretty little head of yours"
"Don't force them together Lana" Grace chimed in "Just let them get on with it on their own terms"
"Thank you" I smiled at Grace and she smiled back.
"Whatever. I know you two are going to be swapping saliva tonight. Mark my words" Lana said firmly and nothing else was said on the matter.
Everybody started arriving at 7:30 and by 8pm the house was heaving. 8:30 rolled around and there was still no sign of Jacob. Did he decide not to come? Was it because I turned down his offer of him picking me up? But he said he was coming, what if he doesn't turn up?
"He'll turn up" Grace said squeezing my hand.
"Can you read minds all of a sudden?" I asked her.
"You're looking around the room as if you're waiting for the Queen to arrive. Its obvious who you're looking for"
"What if he doesn't show up though? I am a high school student after all" I sighed.
"R just chillax okay? He'll show"
The clock stuck 9pm and I had officially gotten depressed. I had been stood up. Then again is it being called stood up when it technically wasn't a date? Whatever, I felt lousy. I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up, after all I had only met him two days ago. I was sipping my vodka and orange through a straw as I slumped on one of the armchairs.
"Bad night?" a voice said and I looked up to see Jacob smirking down at me.
"You came?" I shouted.
"Yeah" he nodded "Sorry I was running late. I had to work late, I was going to text you but I didn't get the chance"
"Its okay. You're here now" I smiled. I studied his outfit. He looked good. He was wearing a pair of dark wash jeans which were turned up at the ends and he had white tennis shoes on. He was also wearing a red plaid shirt. Good? Scrap that, he looked hot "You look different from the last time I saw you" I smiled.
"Is that a good thing?" he asked.
"Oh yeah. Definitely" I smiled.
"I changed about three times - I don't know why I just told you that" he laughed and ran his hand down his face. I smiled at him then looked away.
"Would you like a drink?" I asked and stood up from the armchair. He appraised me as he looked me up and down and a smirk spread across his face "What?"
"Nice dress"
I looked down at me then back to him "It might be a nice dress now but after walking in these shoes, it become a mud stained dress"
He leaned forward and whispered in my ear "I wouldn't worry. I'm not going to let you fall" I shivered as I felt his warm breath on my neck "I'll take that drink now if you're offering" he laughed and I nodded.
We walked over to the drinks table "What's your poison?" I asked him.
"Strictly a beer guy" he answered.
"Safe choice" I said handing him a beer and he unscrewed it and took a sip "Are you going to tell me how old you are?"
He leaned forward and his arm went behind me "Old enough to drink legally" he said and pulled back with a handful of peanuts and put them into his mouth "What's with you and age?"
I shrugged "It's just something about a person I like to know"
"And what else do you like to know about a person?" he wondered and took another sip of his beer.
"Whether or not they're honest"
"Honesty huh? How can you tell if someone is honest unless they do something dishonest?"
"That makes no sense" I laughed.
"Yeah it does. You're never going to know if someone is honest, they could just be biding their time. It takes months, years to do something dishonest. You could know someone for years and they seem as though they're honest until one day they turn around and do something dishonest" he smirked.
"So you're saying that nobody is honest?" I asked.
"That's not what I'm saying"
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying that honesty isn't something you should base relationships and friendships on. Sooner or later they could disappoint you"
I smiled "So tell me Jacob Black. What should I base friendships and relationships on?"
"Honestly?" he grinned and I nodded "I haven't got a clue"
"You're so weird"
He raised his eyebrows and winked at me. For the rest of the evening we spent the time talking and drinking with each other. I eventually switched over to soft drinks as I wasn't the type to have hangovers in the morning, I just wished Lana shared the same thought. Jacob had bought two of his friend with him. Quil and Embry. I remember Embry being the other guy at the garage but I had never met Quil before, he seemed very friendly. Embry had disappeared during the night and coincidentally so did Lana. Grace and Quil spent the night chatting too but Quil already had a girlfriend so it was more of a friendly chat, besides Grace wasn't into hook ups.
At round 1am everybody had pretty much left Lana's house. Embry and Lana had surfaced looking a little ruffled and creased, no guessing as to what they'd be doing. Jacob and I were hanging out in the back yard by the pool when Embry and Quil decided to call it a night.
"I had fun" Jacob said standing up and offering me his hand, I took it and he helped me up from the floor.
"Me too" I smiled.
"We should do it again. But maybe just you and me next time?" he suggested.
"I'd like that. You have my number"
"I sure do. I'll call you"
"Okay" I smiled. He leaned forward and kissed me gently on the cheek.
"Goodnight Nessie" he whispered.
"Goodnight Jacob" I breathed back.
I waved goodbye to Quil and Embry as they departed from the backyard. Lana waved flirtatiously at Embry and Embry signalled for her to call him and she chuckled. I turned round to start picking up the empty cups and bottles when I heard Jacob call my name.
I turned round "Yeah?" I called back.
"24" he shouted.
"What's 24?" I shouted back.
"Me. I'm 24" he smirked and turned back around and disappeared from sight.
24. 6 years difference. That wasn't too bad right?
"An older guy huh?" Lana said nudging my arm with hers "They have experience" she winked.
"Is that all you think about Lana?" Grace sighed.
"I'm an eighteen year old girl. That's all I think about"
"I thought that was guys" I laughed.
"Honey, most teenagers think about sex. You don't because you're still a virgin but honey trust me if Jacob is anything like Embry then you're in for a ride. Embry is fucking huge"
I grimaced "I really didn't want to know that" I shuddered.
"Yeah me either" Grace agreed.
"Then I guess you don't want to hear about how well he uses that thing. Man I thought his cock wasn't going to fit and those fingers" she bit her lip "I might not even have to use my vibrator anymore, I now have Embry on speed dial" she winked and danced off into the house.
Grace and I looked at each other "I know she's our best friend but that was too much information"
"You think?" I asked "Come on lets get cleaned up, might take our mind off of it"
The cleaning did take my mind off of the over share from Lana but it didn't take my mind off of Jacob. However that was something I didn't mind.
"What are you smiling about?" Grace asked.
"Nothing" I smiled.
"You're lying. I thought we didn't lie to each other" she whined.
"Didn't anybody ever tell you G? You shouldn't base relationships and friendships on honesty" I smiled and continued to clean up with a huge smile spread across my face.
A/N Hope you enjoyed chapter two. Edward and Bella were getting it on, how gross for Nessie. Hearing or seeing your parents get it on is the most life scarring thing imaginable. Trust me. Pictures of Nessie's and Jake's outfits are on my blog. It will start getting good soon, after all Jake is a huge horn dog so he won't be able to keep his hands to himself for much longer.
