Summary: Renesmee convinces jacob to buy her something that will upset ehr parents.

Renesmee looked up at Jake with her biggest pout and puppy dog eyes. "Please Jake," she pleaded, pressing what she thought should be her newest possession to her chest.

"No, Nessie," Jake shook his head, "I can't buy that for you. Your parents would be so upset with me, if I didn't talk to them first. The young girl rolled her eyes at her caretaker for the day and then she gestured for him to come down to her height.

"But it's the absolute coolest," she said as he kneeled. When he was her height, she reached out and touched his cheek, sending him images of her playing with it, loving every second. She made sure he felt everything she would feel, understood what joy it would bring to her.

"You don't play fair," Jake complained, since he couldn't deny her anything that would make her so content, as he stood up again and sighed, knowing he'd be in for it later. "Alright, let's get it." He led her to the register to pay; buying some other things in passing that would be a necessity for Nessie's purchase.

Renesmee had finally gathered her whole family and she couldn't keep the smile from her face at the exciting news she had to give them. And she couldn't help but notice the scared look on Jake's face. The young girl appeared to be about four years old, though she was much younger. "I wanted everyone to be here," she began, "to meet the newest member of our family."

At the confusion on her family's face, she gestured Jacob over. The young girl took a bundle of fur from Jake's arms. The kitten was only about ten weeks old, still very fluffy and very small.

"That's not a family member, that's not even a snack," Emmett spoke, but immediately piped down at the cross look he received from the child.

"This is Penelope," she informed him and the others, "She's my kitten. That Jake bought for me."

All eyes turned to Jake and he shrugged helplessly. It's not like he even had the power to say no. Rosalie growled slightly. "Stupid dog can't even handle a simple shopping trip," she said under her breath. He had begged and begged to take her, and he thanked them by providing her with a constant temptation for the rest of them. How would Nessie feel if one day she woke up to jasper making a meal out of little Penelope.

As Nessie took in the hungry look in her family's eyes she returned the kitten to the safety of Jacob's arms. "Protect her," she said to him sternly. And he pulled the kitten closer to his chest.

She walked over to her mother and father and touched their cheeks, showing them that she wanted Penelope. And that she was a friend, a companion, a playmate. Not food. When she pulled away Bella and Edward shared a look before Bella said, "Maybe Penelope should stay at Jacob's house."
