Chapter 8 Airplanes and Oranges

Bella's POV

Yayyy! Not! On the airplane, sitting on the runway at Seatac. Going to Rene's wedding to Phil. The Minor league baseball player. HHHMMMFFF. Whatever. At least I'll be able to sneak away and see Paul and Emmet. My babysitters. LOL. Billy seems to think she is going to try to force me to stay there. Ha. A month of no Jacob. My chest already hurts. We had so many plans this summer. All ruined. But at least I got that kiss. OOOOOO. So sweet. So simple. My phone buzzes. It's Emmet in first class. "Hang in there kid if it sucks I have the Cullen credit card and we will come right home. Emmet." Thanks bro I reply. Bastards Him and Paul in first class probably drinking free alcohol. Oh yeah Vampires can drink. Carlisle discovered it evaporates before they would have to spit it up.

Exiting the plane Emmet says "Ok Belly good luck we will see you tomorrow." They both give me hug and disappear. "Bella." I hear Rene shout. Here we go I think to myself. "Hi R-mom." I say. As she wraps me in a fake hug. "Bella we have so much to do. Let's get your luggage and get to your dress fitting." Oh joy I think. I see Paul at the luggage carousel and he winks at me. I smile and whisper "Dick." He just laughs.

As we were leaving the dress shop Rene looks at me and says "Bella I think it's time you consider moving down here and have a real family." I look at her in shock. "Mom I'm happy in Forks. I have Dad, The Blacks, Clearwaters, Atera's, and the Cullens." "Bella" she replies "You can't really consider any of those crazy people family." I feel my skin getting hot and squeeze my eyes shut and count to ten. It works and I don't hurt anything or anyone. "Mom you can't be serious." She brushes me off and says "we can talk about it later." Whatever. I think crazy selfish bitch.

Jacobs POV

I mope through the Cullen's doorway with Seth and Leah at my heels. Rosey takes one look at us and rushes over to us. She grabs my face and says "are you ok baby?" Leah snickers and says "of course he is. He's just being over dramatic." I snip "whatever Leah as if you haven't been just as mopey." She frowned and shut up. Rosy looks at us and says "Emmet just texted me every things fine so far. So let's feed you guys." I take a big wiff and look at Leah and Seth with a smile "Let's go Esme and Edward made Omelet's." We bum rush the kitchen and skid to a halt as Esme gives us the behave yourself look. Seth beams at her and says "Sorry Esme couldn't help it. Once we smelled the food it was over." Esme beamed at us and said "Go ahead dig in." As I started in on my breakfast Edward sat down right in front of me and cocks his head to the side. Before he can say anything I look at him and say "Shut up." He grins at me and says "I wasn't going to." I look at him and think LIAR. He just grins. Rosey puts her hands on my shoulders and says "Let's go to the beach." Leah looks up from her plate and says "No way it's tourist season," Rose says " We aren't going to First beach. I already talked to Billy. We are going to Third beach. No tourists." We all jump up and shout "Let's go!"

Edward's POV

Ahhh. Third beach one of the only places we can be ourselves. As I look up to cliffs I think to myself I'm so happy Jacob is having fun. Though I shouldn't count my blessings yet Bella's only been gone twenty four hours. I sigh twenty nine days to go. I notice Leah preparing to dive. She is a peculiar one. So strong. No filter if she thinks it she says it. I think Bella and Jacob are truly the only people she cares about outside of immediate family. Although for some strange reason I am in there every once in a while. I hear Jacob call my name. "Edward, watch this one." He completes a perfect inverted flip dive in to the waves. I grin and shout "I got that beat" and go to join in the fun.

Rose's POV

The pup's are having a blast. I look at my Jacob. I call him my Jacob because since Sarah passed I am essentially his mother. I love that boy. I was the first person outside of Sarah and Billy to hold him. I watch him and Edward joke around and realize his life saved Edward as much as it saved me. Edward had no fulfillment in his life until Jacob was born. Sure he helped out on the rez and with our family. But the friendship those two have formed gave him purpose. My thoughts quickly turn dark when I think of Bella being down at Rene's. How I despise that woman. Her departure hurt so many people. Billy, Charlie, Sarah, and most of all Bella. Though Bella acts like she doesn't care I know it hurts her and I don't need Jasper to tell me that. I was so glad when Carlisle, Charlie, and Billy decided to send Emmet and Paul with her. Though no one has phased yet Paul is close I am certain if the need be it would happen. Rene. MMMM. I haven't that the need to hurt someone til her. Of course I can't discount Billy's mother. That witch.

TBC….. So there it is sorry for the wait.
