Disclaimer: This is the 16th time I say this: I really own nothing but the plot, the characters from Nessie's school, Amy and Sofia. Yeah, and the Ferrari (I like the thought lol)

THANKS again for your reviews :)

Btw- the double date isn't in this chapter but there's a talk about the outfit, so I'll put the link here: (I created it so I could find something to describe; I ran out of ideas. Sorry.):

So, here's the chapter. I'm not really excited about it. I don't know why though. So, just please read and review, tell me what you really think :) :D


Chapter Sixteen

Jacob Black

After I said my Goodnight to Renesmee, I went downstairs to join the Cullens in their discussion about the whole Sofia situation; they didn't want to talk about that in Nessie's presence.

On my way to the dining room, I thought about what Nessie said. Did she really think she loved me more than I did? Or was she just teasing me? Because if she really did, than that girl knows nothing. No one can love someone else as much as I love her.

Of course, I was there in about no time so I didn't have much time to think about that. Carlisle told me to come in as soon as I was at the door. I nodded and entered.

"Did any of the Pack catch her scent today?" Edward asked. He didn't reply as he read my mind; probably to tell everyone else about it, too.

"No; they think that either she's like that Victoria-" Bella shuddered when I mentioned her name,"- as she attacks and runs away, I mean. Or that little confrontation today scared her off."

"She seemed pretty determined over there; I could feel her rage. Before she blocked us, I mean," Jasper said, looking uncomfortable.

"Yeah! Just that look on her face! I don't think she'd give up and I don't really care if she doesn't; we'd have another chance to fight her!" Emmett said. What was with this guy and fighting?

"Emmett! You've seen what happened to us today! Do you really think we can fight her with her power?" Blondie said.

"I think she's right; even with our powers, she could stop us all," Jasper agreed.

"I wonder why my shield did nothing to stop her; I mean, I was frozen, too," Bella said, confused. Yeah, I knew Bells had that 'super-mental-shield' something. Edward looked at her with surprise.

"I never thought about this. I wonder why," He mumbled.

"Bella's shield is against pure mental powers, it can't protect her, or the others that she shields, from physical attacks. I think Sofia's power might be like Jasper's; not an illusion, she really does paralyze you. I don't know but that's the only way it makes sense," Carlisle commented.

"Or she has something like what Renesmee has; Renesmee can go through shields to use her powers. The exact opposite of Bella's power," Jasper said. Fortune-teller just nodded.

"Do you think her mother was also a shield?" I asked, finally able to fully understand the whole supernatural powers thing that was going on.

"Maybe," Esme said when nobody else answered; they were deep in thought.

"I think that's enough theories. Now, what exactly are we going to do?" Emmett asked.

"I say we continue our lives normally, but keep a better eye on Renesmee; she might come back," Carlisle suggested.

"She will come back. I saw it in her head before she blocked us, she has a lot of different ways to do it. We have to be careful, very careful. Of course, we'll go back to school, continue our facade, but Renesmee won't be left alone, she won't even go home alone. Someone will always be with her. I can't risk seeing her again in that situation," Edward said.

Edward Cullen

Today was one of the most horrible days of my life; today I was on the edge of losing my own daughter in front of my eyes. Yes, we must be careful.

Flashback

I was running towards where Alice saw Renesmee was in full speed. I saw Alice's vision, I knew what was happening.

I smelled Renesmee as I got closer and heard what she was saying.

"Stay away from them! It's me who you want!" she said. What on Earth was she thinking? 'I can't even imagine my family getting hurt. And because of me' she thought. She was so Bella! Just sacrificing herself for the sake of others. Those two were really getting on my nerves; even though I can hear Renesmee's thoughts, I'd never know how those two make sense out of this.

"That's what I'd been saying," Sofia replied. 'No one would grasp how much I'd lost because of this little brat! Even if she makes it through today, I have a million other plans. She will never get away with what she'd done to me and my father. The Volturi said they wanted me for my power, maybe that Aro would do me a little favor first' she added mentally. I growled at the thought of the Volturi attacking my daughter, or worse, taking her away.

When I could see them both, Sofia was leaning towards Nessie, aiming for her neck, wanting to suck her blood.

Everyone had followed me by then.

"Stay away from her!" I hissed.

"Make me!" she replied. That's when she blocked us all and I couldn't even use my own power. "Oh, if I'd known I could make that happen, I would've attacked them first. Interesting."

She was sucking Nessie's blood right in front of me and I couldn't do a thing. I felt so weak, so helpless. I couldn't save her. I was losing her more and more every second and I could do absolutely nothing. What kind of a father was I? I shouldn't have left her alone. I shouldn't have agreed to this nonsense. It was my entire fault.

Then, right at this moment, Nessie touched Sofia's waist. I wondered why was that for. Then, her grimace -that has formed on her face due what I'd assumed was pain- turned into a straight line, indicating that she was concentrating really hard on something. What could that be?

Then, suddenly, Sofia was somehow distracted, Nessie was able to escape her grip and ran behind us.

End Flashback

I couldn't even think that there is a chance that she gets to lay her hands on my daughter again, to try to take away her precious life again. I just simply couldn't. She won't be alone for a second from now on, even if I had to stay with her the whole time. Anything for my baby.

I couldn't stay over there helpless, weak, unable to protect my own flesh. Without the blood part; it doesn't really apply in this situation.

No way was I giving her the slightest chance to do this again. Never.

"I agree, in fact I think we all agree," Carlisle said, pulling me out of my little reverie. I concentrated on everyone's thoughts and nodded.

Renesmee Cullen

Momma woke me up the next day. I glanced at the clock beside my bed, it was still 5:30am. I groaned.

"Momma! It's still so early! I want to sleep," I mumbled groggily. She put her cold hand on my cheek gently.

"I know, sweetie, I'm sorry. But I need to talk to you before Alice attacks," she smiled as she said that.

"I'll get back at you, you fashion-hater!" Alice yelled from downstairs though she didn't need to. She was just adding a dramatic effect as usual. We both chuckled. I sat upright, wrapping my arms around my knees.

"Yes, Momma?"

"Well, we all talked about what happened yesterday and-" I cut her off, guessing where this was going.

"Don't tell me you guys have more rules!" I groaned; this was getting way overboard. I'd rather go shopping all week with Alice and Rosalie, together!

"It's important, Renesmee. And you know why," she added seriously, I sighed.

"Shoot,"

"Someone will always drive with you; to and from school. And Edward managed to take the first class, French, with you, too, just so you won't be alone. You can still go out with Jake, though. But you won't leave his sight. Literally," she stated. I nodded grimly.

"Fine," I muttered grudgingly. She just chuckled and kissed my forehead gently.

"I know how your father can be overprotective, but I agree with him this time; it's necessary," she said. I smiled back at her and nodded.

Then, just as Momma had said, Alice was at the door, ready to dress me up today. Apparently, she thought that her own computer program was getting 'too predictable'.

For today, I wore a simple red button-down shirt with a white skirt that was a couple of inches below my knees with red ballerina flats and a red bag. Bloody red. Talk about irony!

"I'm dressing you up for that double date on Saturday by the way, I already have your outfit planned!" Alice said, grinning widely. I grinned back.

"Great! I was just going to ask you to!" Really; I kind of like it when she dresses me up on occasions.

"I knew you were going to say that!" She said, laughing a little at her 'inside joke'.

"Oh, please, Alice; it's getting pretty old by now!" Emmett said from the living room. We both cracked at that point.

Today, Daddy and Momma drove with me in my Ferrari. Emmett, Rose, Jasper and Alice were coming in the Jeep.

"Come on, Nessie, nous avons une classe de français," Daddy said, opening the door for me; he wouldn't endure my 'slow' driving so he drove himself. It's not like I didn't want to drive fast; I loved the speed, but he wouldn't let me.

"D'accord, Edward," I replied, smiling; I loved it when we talked to each other in French.

"Can't you two just speak English?" Momma asked. We both chuckled.

French passed quickly. Daddy sat on my other side while Stacey stayed where she was. I could swear some of the girls in my class were hyperventilating when the teacher asked him something and he replied in perfect French, I thought I was going to be sick when I heard several whispers stating how hot he was. It was like the first day all over again. He turned his head to me as soon as he heard that thought and wrote a note.

I feel the same; I can actually hear 'details'. Just don't think about it, sweetie.

I quickly erased it as soon as I read it and thought I'll try my best, Daddy, really.

After French, as usual, I headed off to Geometry with Emmett, who picked me up from French. Seriously, what would she do? Come at school? Inside the damn building?

Anyways, we didn't make fun of Mr. Charles, so we were free to go today; no detention.

Chemistry was fun with Alice, we kept discussing what I was going to wear on Saturday.

Then, it was time for Lunch.

"Stacey!" I called from behind her, she turned her head immediately to me and greeted me. We went to the table together. We talked a little on our way though...

"So, that was Edward, your brother, right?" she asked. No way! We were done discussing the whole my-family-being-attractive thing, right?

"Umm...Yeah? Why?"

"Nothing, I just noticed that the two of you are pretty close. All your family, you guys are so close to each other," she commented, smiling politely.

"Yeah, ummm, we're really close," He's my father, so yeah, we're close.

Now, I remembered to bring my chocolate with me everyday.

"Don't you worry about your weight at all?" Mary asked, eying the bar of chocolate I had. Matt and Brad were trying to hide a laugh.

"Actually, I'm one of those people who eat and don't gain weight," I responded politely. I don't gain weight because I'm a half-vampire, I corrected mentally.

"So, Ness and Stacey, where do you want to go on Saturday?" Matt and Mary knew about the double date already so we talked about it freely while they were there.

"I don't know. Maybe a restaurant or something?" Stacey suggested, looking at me.

"Maybe," I whispered; I liked the idea of the double date but I didn't really like the idea of me eating gross substances that humans actually dare call it food.

"Does Jacob have a place in mind?" Brad asked.

"I don't think so," I said, smiling; I'd find a way to hide the food with my super speed.

"Okay, then. I know the perfect restaurant here in Port Angeles. It's italian and I love it," Brad said, smiling at Stacey.

"Which one?" As if I knew any of them.

"La Bella Italia," he and Stacey replied in unison; it must've had a special meaning to both of them. But, I've heard that name before, haven't I?

Yes! It was where Daddy took Momma on their 'first date' if you may call it that. That should be interesting. I remember she told me that she ordered the Mushroom Ravioli. Daddy made me taste it once, in one of his what-can-nessie-eat-other-than-blood experiments. It tasted like mud but with a sticky sauce. Totally Gross. But, I was going to order it anyways; for its sentimental value. I was going to hide the food whether it was the Mushroom Ravioli or not so why not order it. I was pulled out of my thoughts with my phone ringing, Clair De Lune, it must be Jake.

"Hello?" I said.

"Hey, Ness, how are you?"

"Hey, Jake! I'm great, you?"

"Just the usual, missing you." I chuckled.

"So, Jake, we kind of settled on the place we're going to on Saturday,"

"Really? Where?"

"La Bella Italia here in Port Angeles. What do you think?"

"Italian's good. I wasn't calling for that, though,"

"Yeah?" What's wrong? What's wrong? Please don't be Sofia!

"No big deal, it's Claire's birthday on Sunday. Just wanted to tell you." I sighed, relieved." Is something wrong?"

"No, nothing,"

"Okay, then. See you at home, honey,"

"See you." I said as I snapped my phone shut.

"Is something wrong, Ness?" Matt asked. I was confused; why would he think that something's wrong?

"Um, No, Matt. Why?"

"Nothing, you just looked paler than usual. Just checkin'," He said, smiling. I just smiled back. It showed when I was scared, didn't it?

English was quick, too. Though Mrs. Cox gave us a quiz, but it was grammar, and I had a 114-year-old father, I knew grammar better than anyone there.

I met Jasper as soon as English was finished.

"Hey, Jazz," I said, breaking the silence after an hour of it. He greeted me back and walked me to Gym.

Basketball was really boring, but we had to. But, today, I didn't want to play, so I decided to do a little trick. But I had to tell Jasper first.

"Jazz," I whispered, lower than a human would hear. We had changed at that point and were getting ready to start the game.

"Someone's excited. At Gym. Why?" He was growing suspicious.

"I'm ditching," I was still whispering. He raised an eyebrow.

"And how's that?" I rolled my eyes.

"I'll fake an illness. I just told you to ask you if you wanna ditch, too." He considered that for a moment and nodded.

"Okay, then. I guess you know what to do. I'll just sit there and look pale," I said, he smiled.

"Coach?" He called, mastering a 'worried' tone.

"Yes, Mr. Hale?"

"My sister there feels a little sick. Can I take her to the nurse?" He put on his most innocent face. The coach looked at me. I sat there, my head rested on the back of the chair and my eyes closed. He just nodded.

"We'd need a note from the nurse, you know," Jasper whispered. I nodded and grinned mischieviously.

The nurse was stunned by my high temperature and excused both of us from class, since I wouldn't be able to 'drive'. We just waited in my gorgeous black Ferrari, listening to music until everyone came out. We heard a knock on the window, Jasper couldn't help but giggle. I looked at him questioningly he just told me to open the window.

I opened it to find my Dad, his face a mixture of worried, afraid and furious.

I looked at both of them.

"What?"

"You scared the hell out of me! I went to Gym to wait for you and you weren't there. Then I heard some guy think that you were sick! Then-" I cut him off.

"I'm fine, Daddy, really. And Uncle Jasper was with me the whole time. I just couldn't endure that class. Sorry," I whispered.

"Don't you ever do that again! And if I didn't hear your thoughts there's a damn invention called a phone!" He whisper-yelled, pretty harshly, I gulped.

Sorry. He didn't react to my thought.

"She's scared, Edward, stop it!" Jasper whispered, too. Daddy put a hand on my cheek and mouthed a 'Sorry', I just smiled.

Instead of Daddy and Momma riding with me, Alice just joined us.

"I know the perfect outfit for Saturday!" I beamed.

"Tell me!" I squealed.

"Oh, boy," Jasper mumbled.

"What?"

"I'll drive," he explained, looking between me and Alice. We rolled our eyes.

I jumped to the back seat with Alice.

"Before you ask, you'll be wearing a white flock and lace dress, with a brown belt, brown strappy sandals, brown silk scarf, a golden watch and a brown bag! What do you think?" I pictured it for a moment.

"Sounds perfect!" Her face went blank for a second. Then she grimaced.

"What now?"

"Humph. Edward wants jeans. They'll look great though. Really," Her genuine smile confirmed it so I just nodded.

When we were home, I ran to my room only to find Jake there, leaning on a wall. He smiled when he saw me. I just went there and hugged him, inhaling the musky scent that I'd missed.

"Hey, Ness," He said, chuckling and hugging me back.

"Hey, Jake," I whispered; all I could get out while being so distracted like that.

"Umm... I have some news to tell you. They're good though,"

"What?" I was curious.

"Rachel and Paul are getting married this month," he muttered; he wasn't exactly thrilled that Paul imprinted on his sister but he got to accept it, reluctantly though.

"That's great," I said as I kissed him.

"Yeah, I know," his husky voice had a hint of sadness.

"Come on, Jake! Your sister is getting married not moving away! Paul has to stay for the Pack and so would she. That's good, right?"He smiled.

"You're always right," his voice was still sad, but less.

"So...?!" It was rare when we found nothing to say to each other. Maybe because the whole Rachel and Paul thing was still bothering him.

"What?" He said, as if I pulled him out of his thoughts.

"Do you want to go cliff-diving?" I grinned; he loved that.

"No." WHAT? Oh, come on, Jake, it can't be that bad!

"What's wrong?" I asked grimly.

"Nothing; I don't want to go cliff-diving because I want to take you somewhere else." I smiled.

"Where?"

"Charlie's," he replied. I practically jumped. He laughed at me.

On our way, in Jake's Rabbit, he told me something...

"We gotta tell him...about us I mean," he said nervously.

"Why?"

"Because...umm...well...he'd find out sooner or later," he seemed hesitant when he said that, like he was searching for an answer. Weird.

"Okay, then," I smiled at him.

When we were finally in Forks, he stopped in front of the little yellow house. Charlie was waiting at the porch.

"Hey, kid!" he called.

"Chief Swan!" I called him, smiling and running to hug him.

"Hey, Jake," he said over my shoulder. Jacob just waved.

"What's wrong?" He asked as we entered the house. I pointed at Jake and shrugged. Charlie laughed at my expression.

"We have to, umm, tell you something, Charlie." Charlie looked horrified and surprised at the same time, so he just nodded.

"Is Sue here?" he asked, glancing around him. Charlie shook his head.

"Good, well,-" I heard his heart beat faster. Why's that? Anyways, I just stood by his side and took his hand. Charlie eyed us suspiciously,"- Nessie and I are together. As a couple, I mean,"

Charlie's face went from normal, to white, to red then finally green. He was totally mad, and felt sick, apparently. We just waited until he calmed down. To my surprise, he came by my side and took me away from Jake, hugging me protectively like someone was going to hurt me.

"What, grandpa?" I asked, confused. He looked down at me, then at Jacob, accusingly.

"But she's six and you're, like, twenty-three! How could you?" he yelled.

"Oh, grandpa, please. Do I look six?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.

"But you are! And that's not even legal! Not even when it's a 'need to know' situation!"

"Charlie, we love each other. Isn't that enough?" Jacob finally spoke. Charlie sighed.

"I don't know if I could ever accept this," he muttered.

"Grandpa, please. We just felt the need to tell you. Okay? Nothing's wrong. And Momma and Daddy are cool with it. So, please don't be mad at us, ok?" I told him gently. He accepted it, reluctantly though, at last. It reminded me of Jake with the whole Paul-and-Rachel situation.

We had fun that day, hanging out with Charlie was always fun. We left him, though; there was another game playing. Only to go to La Push for a while before going home.

We went to Sam and Emily's to my surprise. They got married 5 years ago, right after the Volturi incident.

"Hey, guys! Good you came now. We have news for all of you," Sam said as we entered. News again? What was today? A national news day?

We waited with the whole Pack, and their imprints, for the 'news'.

"Well, um, I'm pregnant!" Emily announced. We stared wide-eyed for a moment then we all rushed to her, congratulating them and stuff.

"That's so great!" I told her as I hugged her.

"Yeah, I know!" She squealed, not much of her habit. But it was an extraordinary day.

I went back to sitting next to Jake and leaned my head on his shoulder. I got lost in thought.

Did I really feel a little jealous? I mean, I've never thought about this. But, now, I kind of wish I had a baby. My child. Just mine. A little girl or a little boy to look after. To be a mom. The idea seemed really nice to me.

I looked up at Jake, who looked like he was in another world himself and another thought hit me; I wanted him to be that father of my children. I wanted him to be my husband. Renesmee Black. It had a ring to it.

I sighed, knowing that this wouldn't be any time soon. I could only wish...
