"Do you have to sleep with a guy to get him to love you?"
Rose looked at me for a moment before kicking into the ignition and turning down the stereo, "Eventually." She shrugged, "But maybe you should be asking your mum on this one, she managed to keep Ed on strings for yonks and they didn't screw once."
"I don't talk to her about stuff like this. And I really want to know, Rose. Please?"
"Emmett and I are really...sexual people." Yeah, I knew. "So for me, having sex with him like, made the deal between us. But...It depends on the people, Ren. I mean, Alice and Jasper have that whole intense, could spend hours looking into each-others eyes thing, and your mum and dad, eughhh, they have that whole, 'total Hallmark movie, could write a whole novel about how they feel about eachother' thing going on. Everyone's different."
"Do you think Jake's a sexual person?"
Rose rolled her eyes, "Do you want me to tell you the truth? Or the, aunt answer?"
"You know I love you because you tell the truth."
"Yes. But sweetie, you have this imprinting thing up your sleeve. He is your lapdog," - she giggled at that- "Forever. He won't pressure you into anything and you sure as hell don't have to make yourself available to him until you want to."
"I love him." I sighed.
"I know." She exhaled.
"But I keep thinking, if he's turning me down so much... Maybe he's with someone else."
"I'm not a werewolf-shape shifter, whatever he is. But, it seems like the low-down for this imprinting thing is he is in love with you at unbelievable measures. Ofcourse he's going to be faithful its in his nature. His dog nature. Get it? Cause he's a-"
"I get it." I rolled my eyes with a smile.
"Dogs are the most loyal animals. And if he gets to horny he'll probably just start humping your leg." Rose winked, "You don't have anything to worry about. Don't do anything you might regret. When you're ready, believe me, you'll know."
"Thanks, Rose."
"No problem." The car came to a stop and I realised we weren't home, we were at the Mechanic's-where Jake was currently working.
"Wh-?"
"You think you dads the only mind reader in this family?" She laughed, "Go tell your lapdog he's not getting in your pants and he's still going to love you for it. I'm going to teach this guy a thing or two about handling high-end cars."
I beamed and, without another word, skipped beside the beaten up cars to Jake, who wiped his nose uncomfortably without realising my presence.
"Guess who?" I cooed, my hands covering his eyes.
Jake jumped, but managed to turn his equipment off before turning to me, "Ness! Don't do that when I'm working with this stuff I could have killed you!"
My happy expression wavered and his subsided.
"I'm sorry," He smiled, wrapping his finger in a strand of my hair. "You scared me."
"Can we go somewhere?" I asked, "To talk?"
"Sure...I haven't taken my break yet so, yeah, how bout we go for a walk?"
The fresh air was good away from the strong smell of petrol around the cars, even Jake seemed relieved to be free from the garage.
"What's up Ness?" Jake smiled warmly to me on the other side of the side walk.
"I just had a long day," I sighed. "I really wish you were there with me, at school and stuff. I miss you."
"I miss you all day too, Ness." His hand softly took mine in his, "Its good though, that you get to experience a normal life like that."
"I don't think I like normal." I grimaced.
Jake chuckled, "Oh no?"
"Lucy and Caroline spent lunch discussing how hot my dad was," I made a disgusted face. "It was just the worst. Then we learnt stuff I already knew, then I had to get in the car and listen to how active Rose's libido is." The last part was meant as a joke, but Jake's smile was filled with questioning.
"Why were you talking about sex?"
"Promise not to get angry?"
"I promise."
"Pinky promise?" I held out my pinky.
Jake laughed and linked his with mine, "Pinky promise, Ness."
"So I was talking to Caroline and Lucy today,"
"Here it comes," Jake sighed. "What have they told you this time?"
"That if I wasn't having sex with you we weren't really, well you know, together together."
He laughed and pulled me closed, "Nessie, when you're around me the whole world surrounding me falls and all I see is you." He kissed the tip of my nose affectionately, "I can't even fathom being with someone else. We are, and always will be together."
"Do you think its just because of the imprinting thing we're together?"
"I don't know, Ness. What does it matter? We are together, who cares what brought us here?"
I giggled, "I'm sorry Jake, its just all these teenage hormones, I get worried..."
"Just remember I love you."
"And we'll live forever. Together." I beamed.
"And nobody-"
"And nothing-
"Can change that. Not in a million years." Jake leant in and kissed me for a long moment before Rose interrupted.
"We have to be back at the house before Carlisle gets home." She grunted, "Because he has a 'family discussion' and we all have to be there."
"Okay." I sighed, pulling myself reluctantly away from Jake.
"I have to be getting back to work anyway." He replied, running his finger lovingly along my face. "I love you."
"I love you too." I leant up and pecked his cheek before he made his way back to the garage.
"What is the meeting about?" I asked as we hoped back into the Scarlett red Aston Martin.
"God knows, I'm just happy its not your Mother calling these things again."
"Aren't we all?" I laughed.
Alrighty (: Whats Bella calling a meeting about? Guess ;) I may or may not know myself ;)
