*********THREE MONTHS LATER………….*********

Renesmee

- - - - - - - -

I was running through a forest. Surrounded by haze I couldn't see anything but I felt this pulling sensation, so I followed the power. Constantly tugging, I had no choice but to go in the direction it was telling me to.

But I wasn't scared. No, in fact I felt oddly calm and peaceful; somehow I knew something good was about to happen. The trees whizzed by me as I was sprinting to my unknown destination

Then suddenly I saw my Jacob. His body was tall and muscular, so inviting and warm. He turned and smiled as he saw me, his handsome face gleaming. I knew that I he was what my legs were being drawn to.

And then I woke up. With a jolt I sat up in my bed, the sun just rising in the morning sky. My heart was pounding, it felt like it was going to explode. The hidden pain of missing Jake re-surfaced, tears forming in my brown eyes. I sat there thinking about the dream, mostly wondering what had happened.

The dreams I have about Jacob usually aren't serious- just memories of times of fun we had together, and sometimes him leaving. None of them have ever made me feel like this.

I heard a bold knocking at the door and without waiting, Alice walked right in. She was beaming at me and jumped on my bed. She sat there I as looked at her with a confused look on my face.

Her smile faded a little as she said, "Oh come on Renesmee! You seriously forgot what happens today?"

Wait……something is tugging at my mind. What was I looking forward too before that dream?

OMG IT'S MY LAST BIRTHDAY!

I can't believe I forgot! This is the day I've been waiting for all of my life. One I imagined to be perfect and wonderful! And I started it off with the most heart-wrenching dream I've ever had. Well, I never imagined Jacob would miss it; but what can I do?

Alice was bouncing up and down on my bed when she knew I finally remembered. She gave me a huge hug before running to my closet. Pulling out a simple green cotton dress, she gave it to me. I didn't understand….why would she dress me in such a simple outfit?

"I'm soo excited Nessie! Put this on while I go get a hair tie and brush for your hair," she briskly walked out of the bedroom. I slipped the dress on and Alice dragged me to the bed.

She pulled through my curls putting them in a loose ponytail. Finally she took my hand and walked me down the stairs. It was dead silent before I walked into the living room…….

" SURPRISE!" a chorus of people yelled.

My eyes grew large as I surveyed the people around me. It seemed as if every vampire I'd ever known was squished into the room.

I got pulled into a bear sized hug from Uncle Emmett as he said, "Happy Birthday squirt!"

I was still in shock as my parents walked up to me. Dad gave me a hug and Mom kissed my head. Suddenly Alice skipped up to us and finally told me what was going on.

"Okay I would like to personally thank everybody for coming today. I appreciate that all of you guys kept it a secret but now we can tell Nessie!," she said, talking at vampire speed.

Turning to me she took my hands and said, "Today is your last birthday sweetie so I've planned a HUGE party for tonight. I sent out invitations weeks ago for a surprise party! It's going to be a formal dance and we are going to rock out all night!"

It was obvious she had been planning this for years, possibly since I'd been born. And I'm not going to lie here- I absolutely love a good party. Unlike my mother, I enjoy being the center of attention, but not in a bratty way.

I jumped up and down as I screamed, "NO WAY!" Jasper thought he was funny and mimicked me, "OMG NO FREAKING WAY!" in a girly voice. The sight of my uncle acting like a girl was added to my happiness for the surprise party.

I ran around the room, hugging everyone who had arrived. A few of them I had never met before but most had come to visit my family during previous years. I recognized Kate, Ben, Tanya, Carmen, Eleazer, Maggie and many others. I stopped longer at my godmother Zafrina.

She pulled me into her strong arms and kissed my curls several times. I love my family, truly I do, but sometimes we could get crazy. Zafrina always was calm and I could always talk to her. I don't know why but I felt a connection to her. She whispered in my ear,

"Our baby has grown up. You are a woman now Renesmee, a gorgeous woman."

My eyes filled with tears as I hugged her tighter. I love this family sometimes.

Dad read my thoughts and said, "You better 'cuz Alice went all out for this one." He pointed out of the window as my gaze followed his hand.

Oh snap! Men were setting up tents and tables outside in Grandma Esme's garden. Yeah, Alice definitely decided to do this one big.

Everybody laughed as I started squealing some more and ran and jumped on Aunt Alice. She giggled and then said to everybody,

"Ok its about time for us to pamper the birthday girl so everybody can go unpack their things and get ready. In an hour Carlisle will be taking anybody who is interested hunting. Say goodbye to Renesmee, you won't see her until the party!"

The house shook as everybody said, "GOODBYE!"

Aunt Alice and Mom took my hand and we bounded out the front door, closely followed by Aunt Rose and Grandma. Together, we all piled into Alice's yellow Porshe. She drove us to the nearby spa downtown.

For three hours we got our massages, deep cleanses, and our nails done. I do enjoy getting taken care of but the only thing on my mind was Jacob. Somehow it just didn't seem right for me to celebrate my last birthday without him. We'd talked about it as I was growing up, but I'd never considered the fact Jake might not be there for it. It wasn't a possibility- I assumed he would always be there for me. I was wrong and now it killed me.

In the other room Mom and Aunt Alice were getting into a fight. Their voices were rising and I was trying to listen in.

Bella: "NO! She's too young for that still!"

Alice: "Have you seen her lately Bells? She's GROWN UP! This is her last birthday for crying out loud!"

Bella: "But, no. I won't think about it. Besides we don't know what he's feeling now."

Alice: "Well, about that………"

And then Mom realized I was trying to listen in because she whispered for Aunt Ali to be quiet and then briskly entered our room.

I had no faint idea what they could possibly be talking about but it was my birthday and I wasn't going to let it get to me. After we were finished it was about 1:00 and Aunt Rosalie took us to a gourmet Chinese restaurant for a quick lunch.

Soon Grandma checked her watch, "Alice! Its 2:30 already! We have to get her ready!"

Alice looked at her cell phone, "OH NO!" Grabbing me by the arm she ran out of the restaurant. Oh boy was I going to get tortured…….

She basically threw me into the car and started to speed away. Grandma, Mom, and Aunt Rosalie had to run at vampire speed to get to the car in time.

Once entering the car Mom chewed Aunt Alice, "Geez Al! Way to just leave us all behind."

I doubt Auntie heard her, she was just mumbling under her breath about how she had to get us ready. Doubling the speed limit we reached the house in under 15 minutes.

As I got out of the car I was attacked. I'm not lying! Aunt Alice was on my back with her arms around my eyes. Aunt Rose had my hand to try to lead me into the house and up the stairs.

"HEY! What do you think you're doing to me?!?" I said in shock.

I heard Uncle Jasper laugh and take a picture. Stupid fricken uncle. "Sorry Ness but seeing you getting kidnapped is pretty hilarious."

"Oh yeah, that's exactly what I want to hear. I get kidnapped - my uncle laughs at me. Typical." I said with an attitude.

He just chuckled as I slowly climbed the long stairwell. Then I walked into Aunt Alice's bathroom/ beauty center. She had set up a swivel chair in the center of the room next to the counter. The room was a deep gold with silver furniture. Two huge shelves lined the walls filled with every type of makeup and hair product imaginable.

I sat down and Aunt Alice sent Mom and Grandma Esme to check on the decorations. Perfect. This left me alone with my two aunts. Aunt Rosalie was going to work on my make-up as Aunt Alice did my hair.

Sitting there I let my mind wander. Apparently that was a bad move because they automatically went to Jacob. For some reason I was missing him more than ever. Maybe it was that dream, I don't know. Rosalie saw me frowning as she did my makeup and asked,

"Nessie, dear, what's wrong?"

I wasn't going to lie so I replied, "Oh well……I was just thinking about Jake actually. For some reason I'm really missing him today, maybe it's because I never imagined I would celebrate my last birthday without him."

Aunt Rose let out a sigh and Aunt Alice sent her a pleading glare. Obviously they were hiding something from me that I wasn't supposed to know about. Fine I get it. Don't tell the person whom it pertains to. Makes perfect sense.

Alice took a wide-barreled curling iron and was making my natural curls bouncier and fuller. After applying a base, Rosalie was using different shades of purple eye shadow to make my eyes pop.

Aunt Ali finished my hair as Aunt Rose put the final touch of coral lipgloss on my pink lips. I turned to look in the mirror and a large grin overcame my face. The front pieces of my hair were pulled back, with just on piece sweeping my face. My curls were glossy and beautiful as they hung down my back.

Aunt Rosalie had put enough make-up on me too look pretty, but not too much. My face was glowing as I surveyed myself.

"Oh GOD what am I going to wear?" I screamed as I realized that I didn't pick out a dress this morning.

Laughing Aunt Alice rolled her eyes. "Dear dear Renesmee, what type of party-planner do you think I am?"

When she spoke, Aunt Rosalie ran out and quickly rushed back in with a bag. When I unzipped it I opened the pretty blue dress from shopping 3 months ago. I sighed as I looked at its beauty again.

I hugged both of my aunts before stepping into the dress. It fit me perfectly, gripping the right places, flowing in the others.

"What jewelry do I wear with this?" I wondered out loud.

Already prepared were a set of large diamond studs and a diamond drop necklace that Alice handed to me. I quickly put the earrings in but looked at the necklace and frowned.

Instead I grabbed Jacob's necklace and carefully put it around my neck. Aunt Rose sighed but it felt right. Somehow, a piece of Jake would be here for my celebration.

Mom hurried in and began to speak but then just stared at me. Suddenly her eyes filled with tears as she looked at me.

"Oh my little baby. You are a beautiful woman now. I can't believe this is you….." she tried to say, her words marred by dry sobs.

I ran over to my mother and threw my arms around her. Alice hissed and said, "DON'T YOU DARE RUIN WHAT WE HAVE WORKED SO LONG ON!!!!!"

She ripped me from my mom and scanned my body for any things that needed to be fixed. Finally satisfied she said,

"Well we need to get ready. We will be done soon but until then I'm locking you in here so the decorations are a surprise."

Before I could begin to protest, she had already pad-locked the door. Stupid pixie aunt! I sat there and waited, too excited to try to pick the lock to get out.

About 10 minutes later my aunts and mom walked in gracefully. Mom went with a strapless pink dress that folded down the bottom. Aunt Alice looked like Tinkerbell with a green cocktail dress accentuated by a black sequined bow. And as always, Aunt Rosalie looked like a model in a satin red halter dress.

I looked at them and back to me. We were all ready for the party, which would begin in 10 minutes. OMG 10 MINS! The party I'd looked forward to since I was 5 (physically) was about to begin.

"You look perfect Renesmee. I'd be pretty jealous if I didn't love you babe," Aunt Rosalie said as we walked out the bathroom, down the stairs. Mom and Alice went down first, to my waiting father and uncles. Then Rosalie made a dramatic entrance as Uncle Emmett whistled at her.

And then I began to walk down the stairs. The room got dead quiet as I hit the last step. Then Grandma was the first to speak, "Wow Nessie. You look stunning."

I looked around the faces of my family, the ones I loved the most. Uncle Jasper's jaw had dropped and Uncle Emmett's eyes had doubled in size. My Dad cleared his throat as he managed to get out, "She's not our baby anymore."

I ran up to him to hug him but he seemed a little awkward. I guess the whole daughter growing up thing threw him a bit.

"Okay its showtime people! Renesmee, you will be walking in alone when I give you the cue ." It seemed Aunt Alice had planned this perfectly.

I followed my family to the backyard. Before I entered the largest tent I stood there, trying to collect my thoughts. I was nervous, excited, but it was definitely a bittersweet moment. I was officially going to be an adult but my Jacob wouldn't be here.

Then I heard the magic words of Grandpa as he announced me, "And today, celebrating her 6th and final birthday, is our Renesmee Carlie Cullen."

I smiled and entered the tent. For a second I was thrown at how elaborately decorated it was. The walls of the tent were pale lavender, adorned with pink roses. Lights sparkled over every inch of the tent. A DJ booth was set up on the stage along with tons of presents.

I began to slowly walk to the center of the tent, trying not to trip. Once I got there, Mom grabbed one of my arms, Dad the other. They escorted me to our table where I sat down on a huge chair.

My eyes filled up with tears as I looked around and saw the faces of my loved ones surrounding me. Well minus one of the most important people but I can't have it all…..

Soon my Mom went up onto the stage and began a short but beautifully written speech about me.

"Thank you everyone for coming here tonight. We are so excited to be celebrating our dear Renesmee's last birthday. To get to this point is a miracle in itself. I know none of us can forget the sacrifices you all made to protect her that day from the Volturi, and for that I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart- that is if I still have one…..(chuckling from crowd)

Well today we finally realized something. That our daughter is all grown up. Once the amazing baby we all fell in love with, now a sophisticated, wonderful woman. So let's give a toast to my daughter, Nessie."

Her eyes were cloudy, and she was practically sobbing without tears as I got up and wrapped her in a huge hug. We walked, arm in arm, back to the table and I had just sat down when the lights dimmed.

I turned to see my father next to me holding his hand out. Just then the DJ just announced that I was going to have a first dance with my father before the real partying began.

He twirled me to the dance floor as the song Butterfly Fly Away came on.

You tucked me in, turned out the lights.

Kept me safe and sound at night.

Little girls depend on things like that.

Brushing my teeth and combed my hair

Had to drive me everywhere

You were always there when I looked back

You had to do it all alone

Make a living, make a home

Must have been as hard as it could be

And when I couldn't sleep at night

Scared things wouldn't turn out all right

You would hold my hand and sing to me

Caterpillar in the tree

How you wonder who you'd be
Can't go far
but you can always dream
wish you were mine and wish you mine
don't you worry , hold on tight
I Promise you there will come a day
Butterfly Fly Away
..Butterfly Fly Away (Butterfly fly away)

As the song played I put my head on my dad's shoulders. We danced around in circles and he sang the song to me in my ear.

The song ended and everyone in the room began to applaud loudly. I smiled at everybody as the lights dimmed even further and an Eminem song came on. Definitely Emmett's doing but he knew we all loved it.

People from all over the room poured out onto the floor and began to dance. I was at the center of it all, shaking it down with Uncle Emmett, Aunt Rose, Aunt Alice, and Uncle Jasper. We tried some crazy moves and even incorporated the chicken dance into some Rihanna. For awhile life seemed pretty darn good.

Then the DJ's voice came on through the speakers and said,

"Now we're going to slow things down a little. Everyone grab your loved one and come out to dance."

I slowly backed away to our table as I watched the couples flood the dance floor. Mom and Dad, Emmett and Rosalie, Alice and Jasper, Grandma and Grandpa, Carmen and Eleazer, Kate and Garrett, Siobhan and Liam, Peter and Charlotte, and many many others.

I was hit by waves and waves of sadness as I watched all the men hold their girlfriends and wives close as they twirled around to Elvis's, Can't Help Falling in Love.

All my mind was thinking about was Jacob. I didn't know why, but at that particular moment I didn't care. I felt as if something was trying to pull me outside but I ignored it for a second. Mom looked at me carefully as she swirled with Dad.

I gave her a weak smile and started walking away from the dance floor. Once I was closer to my table I stood next to it, swaying my body to the music, staring down at the floor.

Then it happened.

I felt a strong, warm, hand tap my shoulder. I gasped as I felt like I was being electrified in a very good way. I gasped as I instantly recognized who it was.

"What? Nobody wanted to dance with the prettiest girl here?" my Jacob asked me, grinning widely as the shock of his return was evident on my face.

OOOH CLIFFIE! Sorry the chapter was getting too long for me to continue it but I've started Chapter 12.

All of the outfits are on my profile so check out the links!

I couldn't leave Jake out for much longer so he has returned *happy dance*! Next chapter will start in his POV and end in Nessie's.

So REVIEW please. 5 reviews before Chapter 12
