Apollo

The car came to a sudden stop and we got out just to see the most beautiful place I´ve ever been to. Tall trees everywhere and the greenest, most beautiful grass I´ve seen surrounded us. Flowers were everywhere and the smell of fresh air was comforting. The sun was shining bright above us.

-"Are you ready?" Jacob asked so excited, like a kid about to be taken to an amusement park.

-"Always am," I told him with a smile. He held my hand and we started walking through the little trail filled with fallen leaves. In front of us, stood two beautiful horses; a white one for me and a brown one for Jacob.

-"I hope you like horseback riding," he said, that excited smile never once since I saw him left his face.

-"Jacob, I love it! And this place is amazing! I would´ve never expected this." Just then it hit my mind, the bag. For the first time since it was given to me, I opened it and saw a pair of horseback riding boots, a t-shirt, and a pair of jeans.

-"I told Alice to prepare that for you since I didn´t want those boots to give the surprise away if she told you to wear them in the first place. It´s just us here so I´ll go back to car to put my stuff on and look for something while you change. Let me know when you´re done."

-"Okay."

I took off my flip flops and put on the pair of jeans. Then, I put on the boots and took off the dress. I quickly put on the t-shirt and picked my hair up in a pony tail.

-"Hey, I´m done!" I yelled.

-"I´ll be there in a sec," he said. I climbed on my horse and waited for him. He came back with a pair of horseback riding boots and water bottles.

-"Okay, let´s go," he said after climbing on his horse.

-"What made you take me horseback riding?" I asked him

-"I don´t know. I just wanted a day for us. So we can… I don´t know, talk about things you don´t want anyone else in your house to know. We always talk with the whole family there and I´ve noticed it bothers you when listen to us. And they can´t help it. Besides… I´ve never taken you on a date before."

-"So this is a date, huh?" I hope it is I added in my mind.

-"I mean, yeah. If you want it to be." He said looking to the side, kind of embarrassed.

-"Actually, I do. It is nice of you to do this for me. I´ve never been taken on dates before," I told him with a smile.

-"Well, now you have," he said returning it.

-"Thanks"

-"No problem. I´d do anything to make you happy." I was incredibly touched but wasn´t able to say anything. Silence took over but it wasn´t an uncomfortable silence. I couldn´t believe just how perfect this was. Such a beautiful place to horseback ride and to share thoughts with my best friend. But then I asked myself if I really wanted Jacob as only my best friend. And I wasn´t surprised to find out that the answer was no. I wanted Jacob to be more than my best friend. I wanted it to be official. When suddenly, Jacob stopped.

-"What´s wrong?" I asked him. He didn´t answer. Instead, he had an annoyed look on his face. I looked up to see someone in the distance, approaching us. He wasn´t human, that was for sure. I could hear a heartbeat though, so he must be a half vampire too. I was able to see his face now since he was coming closer and I couldn´t deny just how surprised I was. He was gorgeous.

-"Hello, fellows. What brings you here in this beautiful day?"

-"Isn´t it obvious?" Jacob asked him in a rude voice. If looks could kill…

I ignored Jacob´s rude comment and answered the guy´s question.

-"We´re horseback riding. You?"

-"Well you know… the usual. A little hunt here and there. I´m Apollo," he said extending his hand.

-"Hi, I am Renesmee. Nice to meet you," I shook his hand, "this is my friend Jacob."

-"Hey," Jacob said with no enthusiasm at all. Apollo politely held his hand out to Jacob and Jacob shook it without even making eye contact. I felt my stomach growl and asked Apollo if we could join him.

-"Do you mind if we join you, I´m a little hungry myself."

-"No! Of course not. I was just getting started. In fact, meals are more enjoyable when you have company," he said with a friendly smirk.

Yeah, when you have good company I heard Jacob mumble.

-"Actually Renesmee, I have a reservation already at a local restaurant if you are hungry."

-"Well, I guess it will be in another occasion, Apollo. Whenever you have time to visit, I live with my family in Forks. I´m sure Carlisle would be delighted to meet you."

-"Are they half-vampires too?" he asked.

-"Oh no, I´m the only one in the family," I told him.

-"Well, it was very nice to meet you Renesmee," he looked at me with a polite smile, "and… um, Jacob?" he finished as if it didn´t matter.

Jacob snorted but Apollo ignored it. We got back on our horses and made our way back to the car. I got in and not once did Jacob look at me or mention anything. I couldn´t stand Jacob acting this way anymore, I needed to know what was going on. Jacob was never like that and he never wore that face around me. So I asked.

-"Jacob, what is wrong?"

-"Nothing," he said toneless.

Well, I guess that didn´t work. Two more minutes went by and it felt like 2 hours. For the first time I felt uncomfortable silence with Jacob and I needed to break it.

-"So… I thought Apollo was nice. You don´t get to meet half vampires every day."

-"I don´t like him," he answered, this time as if he cared less, if that was possible.

-"But why? I thought he was really polite and educated."

-"Oh yeah… that and that he looked at you like a deer he was about to hunt down."

-"Jacob, I´m sure that is not true. You´re probably just jealous that´s all," I said with a playful smile. All to lighten up the mood a bit. I didn´t like the direction this conversation was taking.

-"Me? Jacob Black jealous of this half vampy who acts like a Greek god just because his name is Apollo? Come on, give me a break."

-"Awe, little Jacob is jealous. You know I love you!" I said while I gave him a peck on the cheek. Wow! Did I just do that? Hell and he noticed! His face lit up and I felt myself blush.

-"So, you love me?" he asked me with a smug smile. I froze. This was it. Should I admit it? What should I do? Esme did tell me to take it slow. I can´t shove my feeling aside for him either. So I just did what I felt was best. I just nodded my head slowly, feeling myself blush extremely. His smile got even smugger which only made me smile.

-"Well, you know about my feelings for you so I don´t think I have to state it again…"

I could tell Jacob was really enjoying this while I just went along with it, until something occurred to me. But I wouldn´t ask him about it now. I would wait until we were more calmed at the restaurant.

He drove for about 10 more minutes through which the smile never left his face. If giving Jacob a hint about my feelings was all it took to get him happy again, I would go for it. Seeing Jacob as upset as he was made me lose control. It was just so strange. It felt it was like a necessity to make that smile come back to his face again. Like it was my job. And judging by the big one displayed on his face this instant, mission accomplished.

He parked at this place called Sophie´s. It was a gorgeous Italian restaurant with an amazing decoration. It was not fancy at all but it had this little cozy feeling that was great to have some lunch in with some good company. We were welcomed by a waitress who led us to our table. She kept on looking at Jacob with these flirtatious looks that couldn´t annoy me more. I grabbed his hand to make her keep her distance. We were nothing, I was sure. I just couldn´t help it, though. It did work anyway since she straightened up and stopped exhibiting herself to him.

-"Your waitress will come in just a minute. Feel free to look at the menu or order anything to drink now," she said as she handed us the menus but not before sending me a death glare.

-"We´re okay for now, thanks," Jacob said. I couldn´t control myself and started to giggle uncontrollably. I just couldn´t believe how some girls could act these days.

-"Did I do something funny?" Jacob asked.

-"No… Tha-that gir-girl ju-just couldn´t s-stop glaring-g at me! She assumed we were a couple and that made her furious!" I said between giggles.

-"And is that funny? I don´t think it´s such a bad idea anyway," he said while flashing that warm smile. This, of course, made me half blush and I had to drink some of the water we were just given to swallow the uncomfortable knot that formed in my throat.

-"No… it´s just that her possessive behavior was hilarious. Do you know what you want to order?" I asked right away trying to change the subject.

-"Not yet… Do you?"

-"Yeah… I´ll have mushroom ravioli."

-"That sounds good. I´ll have spaghetti al pesto." Right then our waitress arrived. She didn´t look at Jacob at all which for some reason made me feel very calm.

-"Would you like to order now?" she asked very politely.

-"Yes. Mushroom ravioli for the lady here and spaghetti al pesto for me."

-"Anything to drink before your meal arrives?"

-"Renesmee?" he looked at me questioningly.

-"Diet coke, please."

-"Two diet cokes, please." He said looking at her this time.

-"Right away," she said politely.

We had our lunch and talked about many things here and there when it was time to go back. Jacob paid the bill and we were on our way. There was no longer that uncomfortable silence that I felt after we met Apollo. I couldn´t deny just how gorgeous he was.

Jacob didn´t drive like a maniac like most members of my family but he did drive really fast which got me home in just a matter of minutes. He claimed he had to go back to the reservation so he didn´t stop by to say hello to the family like he always did. Instead, he told me to explain to them why he couldn´t stay for a while and sent greetings to them. I kissed him on the cheek before getting out of the car.

-"Thanks Jake. Today was awesome. See ya!"

-"Always! Good bye!" he said cheerfully.

As was to be expected, as soon as I entered the main house Aunt Rosalie and Aunt Alice started shooting questions about my day. I ignored all of them, kissed mom and dad on the cheek, and went upstairs to the guest room for a nap. Most surprisingly, I didn´t dream about Jacob like I always did. This time, I dreamt of Apollo…
