Chapter Eleven
"I see someone is taking advantage of their ability to move!" Jasper commented on me being so hyper these days. I did move a lot since Friday, when I was finally allowed out of this white bed, which I figured out later was the bed Momma used to use when she was pregnant. I didn't really need to know that!
Daddy and Carlisle didn't like the idea of me moving too much, but I couldn't care less; being trapped in a bed for almost three days was unbearable.
"Yep!" I answered him cheerfully, "If I'm going back to school tomorrow, I have to get out all that extra energy! We'll be walking, 'running' and playing 'baseball' in human pace, remember? I don't really think they should call that a sport in the first place when they move that slow!" I put on a disgusted face. Jasper laughed.
"It's fast enough for them," he replied, smirking.
"Slow, fragile humans!" I muttered, he laughed even harder.
"You're slow and fragile to me!" Emmett said, walking into the room. I frowned.
"Not that fragile, Em!" I was still frowning but was also fighting a laugh; practically everyone was 'fragile' to him! Well, except for Momma.
"Yes, you are," that was Daddy. So everyone's against me now? He laughed.
"Just stating a fact," he said, putting on a 'too-innocent' face. I decided to drop the subject while I can.
"So, does anyone know where Jake is?"
The look on Rose's face suggested that she would throw up if possible, "Your, ahem, boyfriend, is on his way." I knew she was resisting calling him "mutt", "mongrel", "dog" or anything like that, but she did it for me. I mouthed her a Thank You. She just rolled her eyes.
I went up to change, since I was allowed to go to Billy's with Jake today. Daddy said that if we go anywhere as far as one mile from the house, he was probably going to commit a murder.
I wore simple, straight jeans with a white tank top and pink converse shoes. I took my Prada pink bag with me, since the Gucci bag was destroyed last Tuesday. "Too much blood" was Alice's excuse.
Same usual hair and make-up. Plus, I put on the wooden charm that Jake had given me; I knew he would notice it this time, with no human blood 'issues' going on.
I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket for a second; just a text message.
I'm in the Rabbit downstairs. Come on! ;)
I smiled; my 'boyfriend' was waiting downstairs for me. I wasn't really used to the idea yet.
The day passed quickly at Billy's. We didn't meet anyone from the Pack, which was a little unusual. Jake told me that they had to patrol. In the morning? I wasn't that convinced but I couldn't get any other information from him so I dropped it.
We were in the Rabbit, ready to leave, when Jacob noticed the charm...
"You really liked it, then," he smiled.
"I told you I did!" He leaned closer, taking the charm in his massive hands. I felt that my heart was going to get out of my chest anytime.
"'I love you'" he read what was written on its back, in Quiluete of course. I could smell his delicious, musky scent miles away, but with him this close, I felt like I was in a different, fairy-tale-like world.
I felt the 'butterflies' in my stomach as he took my face in his hands and pressed his forehead to mine. Breathe, Renesmee, Breathe for God's sake! I kept reminding myself.
He laughed a nervous laugh. I could feel his heartbeat become more uneven every second. That's when he gently pressed his lips to mine. I was dazed; even my reminders to myself to breathe were useless now.
I pulled him closer, feeling his silky, black, beautiful hair in my hands.
After a couple of seconds, we both pulled away, breathing heavily. I felt my face warmer than ever; if there were a hundred shades of red, my face would be all of them combined now. His russet skin was two shades darker, I could tell.
"Do you really think it's safe to go home now?" I asked, nervous, expecting wonderful comments at home, especially from Emmett. Daddy made it clear that he didn't mind that though; he'd talked to me after Jake and I were 'officially' together.
"I think it's a lot safer than going anywhere else," he replied, obviously remembering what Daddy had said. I nodded in agreement, still unable to grasp the fact that what had happened was real.
Jake dropped me home and left. I was in this all alone.
Needless to say, everyone knew; having a family with a mood-controller, a mind-reader and a 'fortune-teller' left you no privacy whatsoever.
Daddy, Jasper and Emmett were smirking- which was good; no one would react to this like they did on my birthday, well, it was a different situation. Carlisle was trying to hold a laugh from the look on my face and the looks on the rest's.
Esme, Alice and Momma, however, were truly happy for me. Rosalie didn't look like she was going to throw up, she looked like she threw up already!
"Oh, Nessie, Nessie, Nessie! Did you paint your face red there?" Emmett said, smirking. Obviously amused by the constant-blush on my face. I just stuck my tongue out at him. Everybody, except Rose, laughed out loud.
I escaped to my room, getting ready to sleep as I had school the next day. Someone knocked.
"Come in!" Please don't be Emmett, please don't be Emmett! It was enough that I was riding to school with him tomorrow.
It was Rosalie, her face to the ground.
"Can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Sure, Rose, come in!"
"Umm, Nessie, I wanted to apologize," she still didn't look at me. I probably got that from her.
"Apologize? For what?"
"You know. I'm just not the werewolves' biggest fan. But, despite that, you should know that I'm really happy for you. Sorry again,"
"Oh, Rose. You shouldn't be; I know you care for me and I know you're happy for me," I smiled at her and hugged her. She hugged me back.
"Thanks, Nessie. But you have to promise me something, ok?" She confused me.
"What?"
"I get to do your hair on your first date!" She grinned. I could swear I heard Alice's gentle growl from downstairs. The whole house laughed.
"Sure, Rose. Alice gets to dress me, though," I said, winking at her.
"THANK YOU!!" Alice squealed as she stormed through the door and hugged me tightly.
The next day, I was finally going to go to school. Daddy would have to help me with all the work I'd missed but I didn't care that much; I knew most of the stuff I was taking at school, well, except for Geometry and Chemistry; they weren't exactly my favorites.
Of course, I didn't get to drive. I drove with Emmett in his newest Jeep. Rosalie rode with Alice, Momma and Daddy today; she said she wanted to plan something with Alice. Probably a shopping trip though. Jasper rode with us.
"So, my niece,-" Oh, no. This wasn't going to be in any way good,"- do I get to 'talk' to Jacob?" Just as I'd expected. Jasper smacked his head.
"Stop it! You're embarrassing her! Besides, I think Edward beat you there," Jasper smirked. I felt my face get redder and redder every fraction of a second.
"Sorry," they both muttered.
We were early this time, thankfully. I had to put my left arm in cast; no one could heal from a car accident completely that fast, so I was going to hear a lot of questions today.
I waved everybody goodbye and headed to French. Stacey was early, too.
"Nessie! How are you now?" she asked, smiling and hugging me for a couple of seconds.
"Much better! Just a broken arm though,"
"Yeah. Good! Oh my God, we were so worried about you!" I rolled my eyes; if I had been in a 'car accident' I would've probably just walked away.
"Don't worry; I'm completely fine now, well, mostly," I said, smiling.
"So do you still want to double? Oh, have you been on the date?" I blushed again.
"Umm...Not yet; I'm grounded. But he's officially my boyfriend now," I grinned happily.
"Oh. Well, as soon as you're 'ungrounded', tell us and we could double then!" She was really excited about that, wasn't she?
"Sure," I whispered; the teacher called the class to order.
As usual, I went to Geometry next, but I stayed at the door to wait for Emmett this time.
"Ms. Cullen?" Mr. Peterson came out of the class. I huffed; he was really getting on my nerves.
"Yes, Mr. Peterson?" I said grimly.
"Umm... Mr. Cullen left your homework with me-" Ah! I totally forgot! "- I was just asking you to come to the staff room today after school to take it." If that's it, I'm cool; Jake's driving me anyways so I can just tell him that I'd be about five minutes late -No big deal.
"Sure, Mr. Peterson," I said, forcing a polite smile; I really didn't like him that much. He entered the classroom then and I kept waiting for Emmett.
"Ha! You actually waited for me this time!" he exclaimed. I smiled and nodded.
Geometry and Chemistry passed fast as I didn't know most of what they were saying so I had to concentrate.
"Hey!!" Brad greeted me as soon as I was at our table.
"Hey, Brad!" I turned my head to Matt, Samantha, Mary and Stacey, "Hi, everyone!" They all greeted me back.
"Whoa. How's your arm? I heard your Nissan was damaged pretty badly," he asked, glancing at my 'broken' arm.
"Better; it doesn't hurt that much now." He smiled.
"I bet you'd pay a fortune fixing your car." The relationship between men and cars, once again, amazed me.
"Not really; Jake's great with cars," I said, taking any chance to talk about him, without the whole embarrassment thing with my family; I missed him more often now. Mary sighed, but she wasn't as annoyed as last time.
"Good," Brad said, turning his head to talk to his new girlfriend, my friend, Stacey.
"Umm...Ness?" Mary called shyly. I felt bad for the whole situation that had happened last week; I was sure she was good on the inside.
"Yeah, Mary?"
"I'm sorry for the whole thing about Jacob; I honestly didn't know and I was acting all childish about it. Sorry," she whispered. I smiled at her.
"No problem,"
Daddy walked me to English, as usual, simply because he has it with me.
"So, how's my little girl?" he whispered, lower than anyone would be able to hear, and faster, too.
"Fine; about everything is solved now. Even the 'Mary' issue." He looked confused.
" 'About everything' ?"
"I'm still grounded, right?" I smirked. Understanding crossed his face.
"Oh," he said, "You're right; you're still grounded." I moaned.
When is this going to end?
"Probably one more week," he smiled. I smiled back; I wasn't expecting it to be that fast. "We can make it longer if you want," he smirked.
NO!! A week is more than enough! Thanks Daddy. He just smiled.
After another boring English class, I met Jasper on my way to Gym and, as Daddy did, he walked me there.
"We're switching to Tennis next week, you know. It's going to be even more boring than baseball; we won't feel like we're moving at all," he commented after class.
"I'm more than grateful." That surprised him.
"Why?"
"Well, compared to the few days I wasn't moving in at all, Tennis is going to be like running full speed!" We both laughed.
"Okay, Ness. Now I'm going to go change, and you too. Jake's going to pick you up, right?" he asked. I forgot; I was supposed to tell Jake that I was going to be a little late, I'd better text him now.
"Umm...Yeah." He kissed my cheek and waved me Goodbye. I texted Jacob then,
Hey! Look, I have to go take my Geometry homework from Peterson in the staff room after school. I might be late. Only 5 mins or sth though. Love you (L)
That should do it.
I changed back to my skinny jeans, white blouse and white flats. God how do humans endure those stupid casts? It took me longer than it should to dress.
I grabbed my bag and my books from my locker; I had a lot of homework due to my long absence.
I walked a little faster than human pace to the staff room since no one was in the hall way.
The staff room reeked of coffee. It was a large room with a lot of desks. Only Mr. Peterson was left there, he opened the door for me. I didn't know why but I didn't feel good about this.
"Hello," he greeted me, a smile growing on his face. I felt like I was going to throw up.
"Umm...Hi, Mr. Peterson," I greeted him, against my will, as he closed the door behind us. I heard a light tick.
"So, Ren-" Again? What was he? A retard?, "- you wanted your homework, right?" he said in a strange, creepy low voice.
"Yeah," my voice was almost a whisper. What the heck was going on? Why didn't he just hand me the homework and let me leave? "Umm...Can you please just give it to me?"
"Oh, Ren! You really thought I brought you here for your homework? I could've just handed it to you there," he said as he stroked my cheek with his fingers. I shivered at his touch.
"What do you want?" I hissed, but on the inside, I was so scared that I didn't think I could really move. My back was now to the wall, he put his other hand on the wall, next to my head, trapping me there. His hand moved from my cheek to my neck and I froze.
"You," he whispered in my ear.
Jacob Black
I was in my dear Rabbit -I know; it's weird but I love that car!- heading to Nessie's school when I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. Text Message.
Hey! Look, I have to go take my Geometry homework from Peterson in the staff room after school. I might be late. Only 5 mins or sth though. Love You (L)
It was Nessie, my 'girlfriend', a concept that I still had a hard time understanding. It was all too good to be true. She was the most beautiful, delicate, caring, loving and innocent girl that ever existed. I doubted that I really deserved her. Focus! Focus! I kept reminding myself.
She was going to be late! I'd have to wait more time to see her! God I'm being so silly; they're only a couple of minutes. I smiled; she was only going to 'take her Geometry homework from Peterson' how mu- What? Peterson? Did she mean that creepy teacher that was flirting with her last week?
I didn't feel good about this. At all. But, no, stupid! She's only going to take her homework from the staff room! What can happen?
Well, a lot can happen!
Oh God; I was talking to myself.
I decided to go a little bit faster, if she gets too late, I'm entering the school.
In exactly 15 minutes, I was in the parking lot. I parked the Rabbit and got out of it, leaning on its door. Everyone was gone now, except for a few students still getting into their cars or waiting for someone.
I glanced at my watch, five minutes passed and she didn't come out. No way was I staying there. I asked the first person I saw for directions to the staff room and ran there, as fast as I could while still in human pace.
I kept running until I found a glass door with the words "Staff Room" written on it, I tried to open the door but it was locked. I felt myself shaking uncontrolably. I couldn't phase there! So I tried to calm myself down. That was when I heard her...
"What do you want?" she hissed, but I could feel that she was scared, very scared.
A couple of seconds later, I heard another voice which I assumed was Peterson's, "You," he whispered.
That was it! Screw not breaking the door crap!
I pushed the glass door, causing it to break into pieces without any trouble.
I saw him then, turning his head to me in surprise. One of his hands was on the wall, blocking her from escaping, the other one was on her neck. He had his filthy hands on her! How dare he?!
Her face was frozen with shock, she didn't even glance in my direction. He was going to pay for that. And pay hard.
Renesmee Cullen
I heard the glass door of the break into pieces but I couldn't even move my head to see what happened; I was far too shocked. But whatever happened was good; this creepy creature took his hand away from my body.
"Who are you?" Peterson asked, obviously annoyed. Rudely confident.
Then I saw him, Jacob, putting one of his hands on Peterson's shoulder, pressing hard.
"Get away from her," he told him, choking the words. I felt a lot safer then, just him being so close made me feel so safe, like nothing had happened, or rather was happening.
"Who are you to tell me that?" He was pushing his luck. He obviously didn't know what he was dealing with.
Jacob's eyes were burning with fury, I could see he was doing his best not to phase right there and then. He pushed him away from me, hitting him to a desk Emmett style.
As soon as I was released, I realized that I should call someone before Jake would kill him; I thought he already broke one of his bones.
I grabbed my phone from my bag with shaky hands and dialed Daddy's number, he didn't answer. Oh, great!
"You wanna know who I am? I'm your worst nightmare, you filthy animal!" Jake growled, punching him again. His attempts to defend himself were, of course, totally useless.
I dialed Jasper's number next; if Emmett came now there will be a lot of blood.
He answered after the first ring,
"Hello?"
"Jasper, i-it's Nessie," I said, my voice shaking.
"What's wrong? Why aren't you home? Everyone's-" I cut him off.
"Come...to...the...staff..room. Now," I said, panting as Peterson passed out.
"We're on our way," he said in his 'military' voice. I snapped my phone shut. Staring wide-eyed at Jacob, who moved away from Peterson and towards me.
"You're okay?" he asked gently, putting a hand on my cheek and hugging me with the other, "You look paler than usual," he wasn't teasing me; he looked really concerned.
"I'm fine," I managed to choke, relaxing a little at his warm touch.
"What happened?" That was Jasper, coming through the door, followed by Emmett and Daddy.
Daddy obviously knew what happened from our thoughts, he hissed.
"He what?" he growled the words.
"What is it, Edward?" Emmett and Jasper asked in unison, glancing at Peterson. Emmett got it though.
"He didn't!"
"You guys are confusing me now. What the hell happened here?" Jasper asked as calmly as he could. I released myself from Jacob's grip and showed Jasper what happened.
"Jasper! Emmett! Calm down now; we need to figure out what to do," Daddy said, angry himself.
"Should we take him to a hospital or something?" Jacob asked, sarcasm in his voice.
"We have to, Jacob."
"I have a better suggestion," I managed to choke.
"Good one," Daddy commented as he knew what I was about to tell. Everyone looked at us questioningly.
"Call an ambulance and leave," I told them. They nodded in agreement.
Daddy called the ambulance and told us to move towards the Volvo.
As soon as I was in the car, I burst into tears. Not even Jasper could stop me, not with him being angry himself.
"How did you end up in the staff room alone with him?" Emmett asked. I told him the whole thing, from A to Z.
Then we headed towards the house, not knowing what to expect tomorrow...
