Chapter 4
Space Needle
As we entered the city I was totally shocked at how beautiful it was, the tall buildings were shimmering from the now ended rain. I coulnt'd take my eyes off of the buildings, and then just when I thought It couldn't get anymore amazing there it was, the seattle space needle. I had only seen it on the internet and in books. I turned and looked at jake "jake! Oh gosh! Are we actually-" He cut me off " Yep!" he said seemingly proud of himself. "Oh wow! I cant believe it, I've always wanted to go on the space needle!" I said excitedly. " I know, I talked to bella, she said you've always been fascinated with it." He replied proudly.
We drove in silence once again. We got closer and he found a parking space for us and then he got out. He walked over to my door and opened it up for me and helped me out of the car. And we started walking toward the space needle. I wondered what he was thinking about, if only I had my dad's ability. He then took my hand, I felt like I should pull away but I couldn't bring myself to. When we got there we walked in and paid for our tickets and went up into the elevator, the woman in there kept looking at us strangly and I couldn't figure out why. Then it dawned on me, Jake is so tan and im so pale. We probably look ridiculous together. At least my parents are both pale so they look normal, even if they are more beautiful than anyone else on the normal street. We arrived at the top quickly and when I walked out I was surprised to see that there was hardly anyone else there. Why wouldn't anyone want to spend all of their time here, it was so beautiful. The tops of the buildings seemed so close as if you could touch them. I know now why people call it Emerald City. I had forgotton that we were still holding hands as we walked around. And then he turned and looked at me and pulled me into his arms. "happy birthday Nessie" he whispered into the top of my head. He then pulled myy chin up and put his lips to mine.
The kiss was long and sweet. I was actually enjoying myself. Then he pulled away and looked at me apologetically. "im sorry, I should have learned my lesson the first—" I cut him off and pulled his lips to mine again. And then the rain started and it was then I realized, I was in love with Jacob. He was in love with me, how could it be anymore perfect. No, renesmee you are not in love with him you don't want him, you have been best friends since you were born. This isn't right. I pulled away and shimmied out of his arms.
"jake I can't do this." He looked at me with disappointment in his eyes. "I just don't know why you think i have to be with you and it is starting to tick me off." He looked at me and I could tell he was getting angry. "Nessie you know what it is. You know what I am!" he shouted. "Yeah I know you're a..a…well yeah! But that doesn't explain any of this, for all I know you're just messin with my head and you don't mean any of this." He just stared at me. "Jake you are a teenager, and a teen boy I might add, I know what goes through their heads and how do I know that your not just trying to ge-" he cut me off. "Don't even say that! Renesmee, I AM IN LOVE WITH YOU HOW HARD IS THAT TO UNDERSTAND!?" he shouted at me. I walked toward the door of the elevator and he followed. "No, take the next one, im going alone. See you in the car." I said putting my hand to his face.
The elevator started to close and he put his hand in it and it bumped open again. He hurried inside and closed the doors, this time there wasn't a guide in there. He grabbed me and smashed his lips to mine again, this time with anger and fury. I punched him and pulled away. "YOU JERK! I TOLD YOU NO, SEE YOU'RE JUST A STUPID TEENAGE BOY WHO CAN'T CONTROL HIS STUPID HORMONES!" I snapped. I had had it with him. Lucky for me the elevator had reached the bottom. I stormed out and ran out of the lobby and out into the street. I flagged down a cab and got in. Jake was at the side of the car immediately. "what do you think your doing, Renesmee?" he asked angrily.
I rolled the cab window up and told him the way back to my house. It was a long ride and I slept for most of the way. The driver woke me up when we got to Carlisle and Esme's. I thanked the driver and paid him. I walked in to search for my parents. No one was there. I ran to my house to see if anyone was there. No one. Where was everyone? Then I remembered that they probably went hunting. I put my hand to my burning throat, it had been a while since I'd quenched my thirst. So I decided to go out for hunt as well.
I ran outside and into the woulds several miles away. I saw a heard of dear about 30 yards from me. They seemed easy enough. I lunged and caught one easily sinking my teeth into its neck,tasting the sweet blood as it rushed down my throat. It was empty in no time and the burn was now tolerable. So, I decided to go home now. Still no one there. I showered to get the remainder of stray blood off of my body. Then I went to bed expecting my parents to show any minute. They never did, and I fell asleep waiting.
