Chapter 9- The Wonders of Charlie's Place
I arrived to hearty laughs and a loud television set. I walk in, since Grandpa gave me a key and see them on the couch through the door frame.
Grandpa, Billy and Jacob are talking about the Nationals vs. Mets Game and occasionally yell at the television.
I never understood why on earth people do that. Its not like the people on the screen can hear you. I mean, seriously people. That's a bit odd.
I finally walk into the living room and grandpa is the first to look up. He smiles, defining the wrinkles on his forehead and his laugh lines.
Mom had tried to get him to use moisturizer, but he believed that moisturizer was for girls. In which I completely agree with.
Men should not use wrinkle cream. It seems unnatural.
"Hey, look, it's my Nessie!" Grandpa says, standing up to give me a hug. I embrace him quickly and then back away.
He still is kind of creeped out by my family's differences. You know, the vampire part. Which is completely understandable.
Jacob looked up at me with his special grin, his obsidian eyes gleaming with happiness.
I smiled back tentatively, turn to grandpa again and say, "Hi Grandpa! How's it going?"
"Good! The Nationals are winning!"
I smirk, knowing that he is lying. The Nationals are never winning. Sure enough, I look at the TV and they are losing 5-1.
"Okay, well maybe I'm a liar," Charlie says back sheepishly, sitting back down in his chair, "In my mind they are."
We all laughed and I sat down next to Jacob on the couch. His warmth swept over me in relief. AAAAHHH…. That felt good.
I finally look at Billy and ask, "You okay, Billy? Feeling better?"
"I'm recovering, thanks Renesmee."
Billy had recently had a massive heart attack 3 months ago.
It was a miracle that he survived, but Jacob had said that he had werewolf blood in him that helped him heal.
I scootched closer to Jacob, just barely touching him and asked him silently, 'We need to talk. Alone.'
I tried to make sure it didn't sound nervous, but I'm sure it did. He nods, just barely, so only I can tell that he had said sure.
He told Grandpa and Billy that he was going to go out with some friends, so he had to go back to La Push.
Charlie fleetingly said goodbye and continued to watch the game. Promptly 1 and 43 seconds later, I announced,
"Grandpa, I better go tell Mom that I'm home."
He looked up and said in confusion, "Where were you?"
"Oh, just with visiting some friends up in Canada…"
Well, I wasn't exactly lying…
I quickly waved good-bye to them both and ran out the door, not bothering to close it behind me.
I followed Jacob's amazing scent to the woods. In about the middle, I saw him with his back to me.
I took a deep breath and stepped out from the darkness. I looked around, saw me and grinned.
"Hi!" His piercing eyes seemed to look through to my heart and see the newfound love there.
I blushed and said, "Look I was wondering…" I took a deep breath. I would do this. I promised myself that much.
I decided to just get it over with. "Er, do you want to go to the movies sometime?" I asked hurriedly, quickly looking away from his perfect face.
I said that last part so fast; I didn't know if he had even heard me correctly.
He seemed a little startled by my outburst but looked pleased. He beamed at me. I smiled back, waiting for him to speak in anticipation.
"Sure!" he finally said and my stomach dropped in relief. Yay!
"How about Friday night or something?" Jacob said, looking like he could embrace me, but restraining himself. I wished he hadn't.
"Perfect," I answered, trying not to sound too eager. Of course, I failed.
He grinned and dashed through the woods towards La Push.
When he left, I stood there for what seemed like hours, frozen with a hige smile in my face.
I finally decided to go home. It was starting to get dark. I ran in a trance, thinking of nothing but everything.
Still beaming, I burst into our little cottage where Mom and Dad were sitting at the kitchen table and talking.
And kissing, which I tried not to think about. It kind of creeped me out when they did that.
They looked up at me, startled, into my smiling face.
"Oh!" Mom exclaimed a little too loudly, "Hi Renesmee! How were the Denali's? Did you get everything straightened out?"
I beamed wider, if that was even possible, and replied, "Everything I just so wonderful!"
And I danced up the stairs to my room and called Kate.
"Hey Ness! Did you…" Kate trailed off so I could fill in the blanks. Or maybe she was with Garrett.
"Yes!" I practically screamed back into the phone. I'm sure the whole house heard me. Well, louder than usual, "And I feel so relived!"
"I'm so proud of you! Oh! Got to go! Going hinting with Garrett! Bye! Visit Soon!"
She hung up before I could say good-bye, but nothing could kill my buzz right now.
I fell back on my bed with a contented sigh. I thought that at how wide my smile was that I could be compared to the Cheshire Cat.
I started to fall asleep but sat up as I heard the door open. A dancing pixie waltzed into my rom.
"Hey Alice," I grinned, knowing why she had come.
"I am so proud of you, Ness!"
I blushed as she sat on my bed to hug me, but I did not protest. For she was my aunt and I loved her with all my heart.
"We have to figure out what you're wearing! Hopefully you have better taste than your mother…"
"I heard that!" shouted Mom from beneath the floorboards, playfully of course.
Alice giggled and went on about what I should wear, my hair, my make-up, and everything else her odd mind could come up with.
I zoned out the whole time thinking about Claire and Quil, of all things. Why does he hang out with her all the time?
I pondered this question for a while. And then I understood; Quil had imprinted on Claire.
Something else that I needed to talk to Jacob about.
I woke up out of my daydream when I noticed that Alice had gone.
"Alice?" I inquired when she came into my room, skirt in hand.
"Why don't you wear this old thing? Your mother wore this to her graduation."
When I started to look doubtful, she added, "I bet Jacob would recognize it."
I smiled at her.
"Perfect."
