"50 Euros for the night?" Nessie said in perfect French and then looked at Jacob. "We'll take it." her French was flawless as the old lady led her and Jacob up to a bedroom on the second floor. They were on the outskirts of France which was infested with poor people trying to make some money anyway they could. The couple that owned the house rented rooms out, and this was a regular means of sleeping in a bed for Nessie and Jacob.

"I'm exhausted," Nessie said falling down on the bed.

"Me too Kid," Jacob responded and laid down next to her. He was trying to think of their next plan of attack. "So where to next?"

"I don't know, when the world is at your fingertips you just have too many options," Nessie responded cuddling up next to him, he hugged her nice and tight.

"We could go to Switzerland, or Germany, the UK even," Jacob said thinking out loud.

"I want to go to Italy." The room was dead quiet for a moment.

"Ness, that's not a good idea," Jacob said. The Volturi were in Italy, and hadn't they been running from them for 20 years.

"Robberies happen all the time, all over the world. We won't make spectacles of ourselves, and we don't even know where they live anyway," she said and started tracing mindless images on his chest.

"But why run the risk?" he asked, his gut was telling him this was not a good idea.

"I… I don't know. It would just make me feel closer to them," Nessie responded and she couldn't bring her gaze up to meet his. He kissed her gently on the forehead.

"Why do I always end up listening to everything you say?" he asked and they both laughed.

"Because I am always right," Nessie chuckled.

They got changed for bed and cuddled together. Jacob held Nessie in his arms and waited until her deep even breathing was the only sound in the room. He couldn't sleep; Italy was not the place for them to go. It was too dangerous; everything Bella had ever asked him to do was going to be broken by going to Italy. But he didn't answer to Bella's requests anymore, only her daughter's, and he couldn't find it in himself to deny Nessie the chance to somehow feel closer to her family.

As Jacob began to drift to sleep, Nessie started screaming in her sleep.

"Shh, baby, wake up," he gently shook her.

"Oh, oh Jake," Nessie cried into his chest. Much like Bella, Nessie had night terrors that made her scream on an almost daily basis.

"It's okay, it was just a dream," he said and kissed her head. She brought her hand to his cheek and replayed what happened.

"You're going to look beautiful!" Alice and Rosalie chimed as they fixed Renesmee's hair and make up. Bella stood in front of her daughter beaming.

"Momma, what do you think?" Nessie had asked.

"You're breathtaking, Jake's not going to know what to think!" her mother said and kissed her on the forehead. Edward then appeared at the door of the room wearing a tuxedo. His mouth hung open a little as he looked at his only daughter.

"Daddy?" Nessie asked, worried for him. If Edward could cry he would now.

"I love you so much Ness, forever," he said walking over to her and kissing her forehead. He took her by her hand and led her to a stairwell. Wagner's march began to play and he led her down the stairs, her white dress trailing behind her. At the bottom of the stairs she looked ahead and saw Jacob, standing tall and proud, a tear in his eye at the sight of her. She smiled at him and an overwhelming sense of joy filled her, she was going to marry Jacob! She had waited forever for this, to make it official.

"Who gives this woman away?" the priest asked, his eyes were red.

"Daddy, don't it's a trick," Nessie tried to warn her father but it was to no avail.

"Her mother and I do," Edward said. Then all havoc was released.

The priest was Aro, his brothers waiting in the wings. Alec and Jane and all of the other Volturi bodyguards stood from their seats in the pew and started to attack.

"Ness, Run!" Bella's voice shouted out, but this time Ness was rooted in her spot. She watched as her mother, and father, and aunts and uncles and grandparents, and her Jacob were ripped apart by the Volturi. She stood there screaming for them to stop, crying, begging.

"Take me, you want me! Take me!" she said turning to Aro, but everyone was already gone.

"You foolish girl, you could have spared their lives," Aro responded as he walked closer to Nessie. "Never the less, we have gotten what we came here for, brothers?" the other two men nodded in agreement.

"Momma, Dad, Jake!" Nessie cried as she was being dragged off.

"You aren't responsible for what happened, Ness. It wasn't your fault," Jake said holding her nice and tight.

"I was," she cried into her chest. "Everyone died because of me."

"That's not true. They had it out for your family well before you were in the picture," Jacob tried to reassure her. He hated not knowing what to say.

"And I just made it happen all the more quicker!" Nessie said sitting up.

"That's not true, everyone would tell you that's not true."

"But they aren't here, Jake." It was the harsh reality they were faced with everyday.

"No, they aren't," he said regretfully and wiped a tear that escaped Renesmee's eye. "But they would want you to be happy."

Nessie brought her hands to her temples and rubbed them and smiled.

"I am happy, with you," she said. "You have to know that, I just can't get past the guilt." Jacob hugged her and rubbed her arms. "And it's not just the guilt of my family, it's the guilt that I took you away from your home and you pack, it's the fact that I can't marry you no matter how badly I want to, it's the fact that I made us do what we do, its so many things," Nessie cried into Jake's shoulder and he hushed her.

"You are my family Nessie, you are everything I need. And I don't need a ring to tell me I'm with you forever, I know that. I love you more than anything in this world and I would never ever leave you. And I'll change the situation for us, I'm so sorry it is like this now," Jacob reassured the sobbing girl.

"It's not that I don't want to marry you Jake, it's just that I can't fathom doing it without my family. I know I was only a few months old, but there are still so vivid to me…" she trailed off. Jacob didn't need to hear anymore, they had this conversation on an almost nightly basis. He knew how she felt, and he didn't blame her. If his family had been viciously murdered, he wouldn't have been able to get married either, not without them there.

He held her in his arms and she soon drifted to sleep. Jacob inhaled deeply at the scent of her hair and kissed the top of his head. This was all he need, just Nessie.
