The next day I felt better than I expected, and walked into the kitchen to make Renesmee and Jacob some breakfast. Everyone was still in the exact same position as when Emmett was telling his story. Esme followed me, and gave my shoulders a tight squeeze. "Sit, I'll make her and Jacob something."
I sighed slouching into a chair feeling tired, "Thanks."
I watched her make omelets just the way Jacob liked them.
"The party was amazing. I really think Renesmee had a great time." I said resting my head on the table.
Esme laughed, "I think you all enjoyed yourselves." She turned to wink at me, "As for Renesmee, well, it was a night she will never forget."
I could hear Jacob coming down the stairs, and he sniffed as he walked into the kitchen.
He sat down next to me, "I knew I smelt Esme's cooking." She smiled warmly at him as she placed a plate in front of him.
"Morning." Renesmee smiled as she climbed onto my lap. I leaned back in the chair playing with her hair as she ate.
"Did you have fun at your party?" I asked her leaning forward to kiss her cheek.
"Yes I did! Your all funny when you drink." She giggled taking another bite of her omelet.
"You got that right." Jacob said with a mouth full of eggs.
"Hey, no talking with your mouth full." Renesmee glared at him. I wrapped my arms around her laughing.
"That a girl." I looked at Jacob, "She told you."
Jacob rolled his eyes at me, "Shut it."
Emmett and Rosalie walked into the kitchen and sat in the chairs across from Renesmee and I. Edward followed kissing the top of mine and Renesmee's heads before he sat on the counter. Renesmee pushed her plate away, and leaned on the table to stand on my legs. Confused I held her waist to steady her.
"I have an announcement to make." She looked serious, and I glanced quickly at Edward. He was starring at her shocked already knowing what she wanted to say.
"You have the floor." Esme took a seat next to Jacob.
"I want to go to school! Clair is starting kindergarten, and I want to go too!" Renesmee looked at all of us before meeting Edwards gaze.
"Carlisle." Edward said softly, and he walked into the room. He obviously heard the conversation from the living room.
"I think it's a good idea. She's the perfect size of a 5 or 6 year old. I've spoken to Nahuel numerous times. Seems as if she has slowed to a rate much slower than Nahuel and his sisters. I've concluded that it's because both of you are much younger than Nahuel's mother and father. He stopped aging around the age of his parents. Therefore I don't think Renesmee will age any older than 18. I think it's perfectly safe for her to attend school. Although it cant be in Forks."
"Why not?" Jacob asked wide-eyed.
"Well, it's past time for us to move on, and Bella and Edward just graduated. There is no way they can enroll their 6 year old in kindergarten."
"She could be your adopted daughter! Just like the rest of them." Jacob's hands began to shake.
"Not when she resembles her parents as much as she does." Carlisle looked from Renesmee's face to mine and Edwards.
"So we move." Edward shrugged, "We will all enroll back in school. This way Renesmee will be able to stay in one school district for a while. She can easily pass as our sister."
"You would say that! Your not taking her away you filthy bloodsucker!" Jacob yelled standing up, making his chair tip over. He slammed his hands down on the table, his whole upper torso was shaking. I stood up with Renesmee still in my arms, and turned to take her out of the kitchen. I didn't want her anywhere near him if he phased.
"Jacob, we have to. Carlisle has been at the hospital for too long now. We have to move on." Edward jumped off the counter standing in front of the doorway so Jacob wouldn't follow us.
"No, you just want to take her away from me!"
I handed Renesmee to Jasper and Alice, and they took her upstairs. I turned to walk back into the kitchen, and everyone but Edward, Emmett and Jacob were standing in the far corner.
"Jacob please go outside." Esme pleaded watching Jacobs entire body shaking, she had her arm protectively holding Rosalie behind her. Carlisle had positioned himself in front of both of them. Emmett and Edward were crouched in front of Rosalie, Esme and Carlisle, blocking them from Jacob.
"Jake, we wont go far." I said holding my hand out in front of me. I stepped forward and rested it on his trembling shoulder. He cringed at my cold touch to his bare skin. I was standing behind him, so I couldn't see his face.
"Bella back away." Edward growled stepping towards me from the other side of Jacob. I held my free hand out to stop him. I stepped closer to Jacob, so I was pressed against his arm. I could hear Edward's snarls, but I ignored him.
"You can visit whenever you want. Jake, I think it will be good for her. She needs to grow up without you constantly by her side."
Jacob spun his head, and narrowed his eyes at me, "What are you saying?" he pronounced each word slowly. I stepped back when he turned his whole body towards me.
"I'm saying giver her some space to see what's out there for her. If she falls for you, than so be it. I have to give her that choice." Jacob crouched down at me pulling his lips back over his teeth. Edward moved swiftly between us followed by Emmett.
"Back of Jacob." Edward warned, "She's right. We wont go far at all. We could go to Seattle. I could never take Bella away from Charlie. You can be in Renesmee's life, just let her choose her own destiny." Jacob stood upright. He looked passed Emmett and Edward, narrowing his eyes at me.
"You of all people should realize what your doing." I shook my head confused, "God Bella, how did you feel when Edward left you? Should I go get Sam and ask him to explain in detail the state you were in when he found you?" He looked up at Edward, but still talking to me, "Or should I have him THINK of the exact moment he found you?" Edward looked down and closed his eyes as if he was in pain. Jacob ignored him turning back to look at me, "Do you remember that pain? Bella you were a walking zombie when you showed up on my doorstep. I couldn't mention that leeches name without you literally wrapping your arms around your torso to hold yourself together. You want to implement that kinda pain on me?!"
I was gasping for air. My human memories weren't clear, but for some reason I could easily remember the pain and anguish I went through. "Please stop." I begged leaning forward holding onto my knees.
"No! No I wont stop! You feel it? You remember it?" Jacob moved towards me, but Edward pushed him back.
"Lay off Jacob!" Edward growled.
"She needs me." he whispered holding back tears.
"She needs her parents." Edward snapped. "She doesn't need you! Your nothing to her right now. She may look up to you, but she also looks up to Emmett and Jasper. Let her make her own decisions. We're not taking her away from you. You are more than welcome to come visit, and she can come here to visit you." Jacob stepped back out of Edwards grasp. He turned abruptly, and leaped for the door. He cried out as he phased, and it turned into a high pitch howl once in his wolf form.
