Finally a new chapter! Sorry for taking so long! Enjoy!

It was hard to believe I almost killed my entire family in one day and then saved them the next day without really understanding what I was doing the entire time. Well, now that that's over, my dad just seems to think my brain can take endless amount of information. How much of his long conversations could a girl take in one week?

My dad made me feel so dumb whenever he talked to me because he always read my mind to check if I was paying attention. Needless to say his little "talk" about imprinting was more like a lecture. It also gave me even more to think about considering I didn't understand a word of what Jacob said last time. I couldn't just sit down and breathe for once in my life, I always had something to worry about.

I still wasn't sure if I should take this imprinting thing as creepy or sweet. I mean I've known Jacob for such a long time that it doesn't seem creepy, yet I was scared to admit to myself that it sort of was. I just wanted to do the right thing, but judging by my dad's angry face, my mom's disappointed face, and Jacob's scared face, I really wasn't sure what to think.

A million thoughts raced around in my head as they all stared at me. Had I been asked a question? I must have completely zoned out. My dad has been known to repeat himself until he's blue in the face, and since that isn't possible for a vampire, he can talk for a long time. How does my mom live with this every day?

"Umm, what?"

"Nessie did you even hear a word I said?" I don't think I could stop annoying my dad if I tried.

"Yeah yeah, I did I just… why are you guys staring at me?"

No one answered. I think we were all expecting Dad to get mad or something. Finally Mom said in a gentle voice, "We were expecting some kind of reaction."

Oh joy. What was I supposed to say? I didn't want to hurt Jake's feelings, but I didn't want my dad or get mad or my mom to be disappointed.

"Can I just have some time to think?" As soon as I said that Jacob looked happy that he got to leave this room of tension and awkwardness.

Jacob and my dad walked out, and mom smiled before closing the door. How long had they been here anyways? I looked at the clock and discovered I didn't know when they started talking to me anyways. It was almost two already and I figured I should get dressed now.

***

After I showered and got dressed I went downstairs to see if there was anything to eat. I didn't really want to go the other house right now.

I walked through the living room and found Uncle Emmett sitting on the couch.

"What are you doing here Uncle Emmett?"

"Well, your parents wanted me to make sure you were safe." I tried not to laugh.

"Why wouldn't I be safe?" He patted the space next to him on the couch and I sat down.

"Well, don't tell them I told you, but they think your going to sneak out or something. Technically you are grounded."

"I know I know. But aren't you guys the least bit happy that we all don't have to die?"

"Of course we are" Psh, yeah. That was so easy to see on my dad. "Well, we are, it's just, Carlisle and your dad seem to think that you have a human memory after all."

"I'm sorry but it's not like I can control it!" I snapped.

"Haha calm down Nessie. We know. There's just a lot going on right now, that's all."

"Why did you come anyways? Don't you have anything better do to the babysit a crabby teenager?"

"Not really, Rosalie is hunting with Alice so I volunteered."

"You volunteered?" Wow, I should have known.

"Yep. I wanted to spend time with my favorite little niece." He said as he patted my head. I frowned at him.

"I'm your only niece."

"Oh Nessie, have a little fun! Your just like your mom when she was human." I tried not to smile.

"I'm telling her you said that."

"Go ahead, I used to tease her all the time. But now, I have you to pick on."

"Great." We didn't say anything for a while after that.

"Nessie come on, what's wrong?"

"Well, I'm pretty sure my father wants to disown me right now."

"Nah, he's just mad that his daughter is growing up at five times the rate of a normal human. That's all."

"But I hate disappointing my mom and dad."

"Nessie you can't always make everyone happy."

"I seem pretty good at making everyone mad though. This was so much easier when I was mad at them for spying."

"Let me give you some advice, kid. Sometimes, you have to go with how you feel, not what everyone else thinks. If you do like the wolf, then that's it. Your mom used to be dating a vampire when she was human for crying out loud!" I laughed. Emmett wasn't really the speech kind of guy, so this was pretty good for him.

"Thanks Uncle Emmett. What would I do without you?" I gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Your welcome, just call me the personal therapist." I smiled and got up.

I came back a second later with Poptarts in my hand. "So now that you know I'm not sneaking out, you can go get on with your life and stop playing therapist." I giggled at his fake hurt face.

"I told you! I have nothing else to do! And, besides, you might end up sneaking out."

"Where would I go?"

"To La Push?"

"No I wouldn't."

"Oh Nessie Nessie Nessie. I can so easily tell when you are lying."

"I'm not lying!" Okay, I was lying, but I think I really should talk to Jake about this whole thing eventually.

"I'll tell you what, if you beat me in Mario Kart Wii I will let you out."

"How many games?"

"Best out of one hundred."

"That will take all day!"

"Exactly."

"I thought you were supposed to be the fun one!" He just smiled and turned on the Wii. I sighed. "Okay, I'll just have to kick your butt."

"Not a chance!"

***

One hundred games of Mario Kart and a few Poptarts later, I had beaten Emmett 51 to 49.

"I told you I would kick your butt!"

"I let you win."

"No you didn't"

"Rematch?"

"Nope, sorry I have to go to La Push." I still hadn't thought of anything to say to him, but hopefully things would work out. I just really wanted to see him.

"Your parents are going to kill us."

"I'm already grounded, what's the worst that could happen? Besides they don't need to know."

"You are a devious child. I'm proud of you." I hugged him and started to walk out the door. "Wait! I have to drive you. If there's a new vampire in the area, I don't want anything to happen." I sighed but decided not to push my luck.

***

We pulled up to the treaty line and I got out. "You know, I don't think this thing matters anymore." I said pointed to a spot on the ground where I assumed the line was.

"Well, I don't want to take chances…"

"That's okay, see you later…. Thank you for everything" I smiled and shut the door.

When I got to Jacob's house butterflies fluttered in my stomach. Darn, this happened way too much. I pushed the doorbell still completely unaware of what I was about to say.

Okay guys I have an idea for the next chapter and it's going to be really cute. Sorry if you thought this chapter was bad but I promise you will like the next one. I also promise it will be on much sooner! Thank you guys for sticking with my story! Please review :):)
