Chapter 22:

Stupid Tangy Punch

The next few months were . . . nerve wracking. First of all, I wasn't sure when Alice's vision was going to happen. I was always worried when Jake started to mess with dad and began to hyperventilate when dad was mad at us. That seemed to be very often actually now.

We really tried to stay out of trouble but it always seemed to find us. In school we weren't really doing anything bad but dad was so . . .tight. He would yell at us for no reason. If I lost my keys, he would say I should be more organized. If I got a detention, which I only got one more that also wasn't fair, he yelled at us for about an hour.

If I didn't get a perfect test grade he would yell at me saying that I knew everything the test was one so I was just being lazy. It wasn't fair! I got distracted and circled the wrong one but I knew the answer. The worst was when I got a speeding ticket.

That really set him on the edge. It wasn't fair though. Alice or Edward were normally in the car when they went really quick so they never got caught! It was so not fair. School was becoming a safe haven. Everything was not great but it wasn't terrible. That all spiraled down one day.

"Hey Ness, Jake. There's a dance/party at my house tonight. See, my brother is on the football team. He told me to invite some of my friends if I wanted too. It'll be fun . . . nothing crazy though" Matt asked at lunch.

"Sure" I answered and we started talking about what to wear.

When I got home, I went to my room right away and started my homework, hoping to finish quickly. I went faster than I had ever in my whole life. Luckily, I didn't have much so I finished in about an hour.

"Mom!" I called from my room.

"Yes honey?" she asked.

"Okay, my friends is having a party at his house and lots of my other friends are going and some other people . . .can I please go? I already finished all my homework . . . please??" I begged.

IF she said yes, I could go. If she said she wasn't sure, that meant I had to ask dad. I shuddered at the thought.

"Sure, just don't be home too late" she said and I nodded happily.

"Come on" Alice said as she suddenly appeared in my room and dragged me out. "I have to get you ready. Go take a shower" she commanded once she had locked me in her room.

I rolled my eyes but stripped down and climbed into the shower. I took my time, enjoy the hot water. Once I was done and completely shaven, I got out and went to Alice's closet.

"Here you go" she said as she handed me lingerie.

"ALICE!!!" I screamed. "What in the world am I going to need this for?!?!?!"

"Relax, it's just the way it's made is good for the dress" she said as she took out a purple cocktail dress.

When I put it on and looked in the mirror, I realized she was right. You could see no creases of bumps in the form fitting dress.

"Here" she said as she handed me silver heels.

"Uhh, Alice, not a good idea" I said as I refused them.

"Fine" she grumbled as she took out another pair of sliver shoes but with a smaller heel.

"Better" I said as I put them on.

She put on a sliver necklace with matching bracelet and earrings.

"There, now . . . makeup and hair" she said as she dragged me to her vanity area. "Rose!!"

Rosalie appeared behind me seconds later.

"Would you mind doing her hair?" Alice asked as she began doing my makeup.

I closed my eyes and let them work, letting my mind wander.

"Nessie!" Alice called and I woke with a start. "So, what do you think?" she asked excitedly as she showed me my reflection.

I had to say, I look pretty good. I had on mascara, dark blue eyeliner and purple eyes shadow. I had a slight blush on my cheeks which I didn't think I would really need. I looked down at my nails and saw they were painted too.

"How did you do this amazing job without waking me?" I asked and they squealed.

"Come on, I got Emmett on Jacob duty again. You're perfect Nessie. You be the most beautiful one there" Alice said as she ran off.

I stood up, stretching my tense muscles and moving my stiff neck. I grabbed the purse Alice left on her bed which already had all my stuff and headed to Jake's room.

"Jake? Ready to go?" I asked.

"Yeah . . . just . . . give me a second" he said as he came out and man was he looking hot.

"You . . . Ness you look . . . amazing" he finally said.

"You look amazing as well" I said as I linked my arm in his and we went down the stairs together.

We stopped once for the picture Alice wanted to take but other than that, continued to the garage.

"Bye mom! Dad! See ya later" I said as I went to our car.

The last thing I heard was "Renesmee! That dress is too short!" before we rode off.

We arrived at Matt's house a couple minutes later and I was awed. His house was almost as big as ours except his looked like a true mansion with pillars and a gate and a fountain and all. What . . . it looks so out of place next to all the small houses around it. The party was already in full swing. There were people dancing in the yard with drinks in their hands. You could hear the music blaring from inside. There were lights and through the front door, you could see people dancing. It seemed like the whole school was here.

We parked on the sidewalk and got out quickly.

"Come on, let's go have some fun" I said as we walked up to the house.

Everyone stared at us as I passed. I got a bit jealous at some of the girls that stared at Jake though.

"Hey Ness! Jake! You made it!" said Matt as he walked out with Emma by his side.

"Yeah, nice party" I said as we went in.

It was pretty awesome. The house was huge so everyone could be dancing or talking and you didn't feel all crowded together. There was a bunch of food that seemed to come in endless supply and a big tub of punch. It took a bit and tried it.

"Wow! That tastes really good. The punch is perfectly sweetened and was like a tang or twist to it" I said as I gave Jake some.

"Wow, that is good" he said as he tried it.

Overall, we had a great time. We would dance, talk and drink punch. That stuff was addicting, it was so good. At some point, I got a bit dizzy but I thought I had just drank too much and danced without eating so we served ourselves some food . . . with punch. We sat down and ate as we watched people dance.

Eventually, we got back on the dance floor just as a slow song started. We danced slowly, our bodies moving in perfect synchronization. I remember looking up into Jake's eyes and leaning in for a kiss. The next thing I knew, I was in a bed upstairs without my dress on and Jake had his shirt and pants off. I felt everything get clearer and clearer.

"Oh my gosh!" I said as I jumped out of the bed.

We were drunk! We had gotten drunk. But how . . . the punch! The tangy aftertaste! Crap. And we almost . . . crap! I put my dress on.

"Come on Jake, get dressed, we have to leave" I said as I put my dress on.

I guess my vampire side didn't let me stay drunk. I got completely dressed before Jake started to come back to his senses.

"Nessie?? Why are we in a bed . . . " his eyes widened as he noticed he wasn't dressed.

"We got drunk on that stupid punch" I said as I tried to fix my hair which was crazy.

"Shit!" he said as he grabbed his clothes and began getting dressed. "Did . . . did we?" he trailed off as he blushed and then groaned.

"One, not we didn't. I guess the effects wore off of me because of my vampire side and you because you regenerate. And two, what's wrong—" but I quickly stopped talking and blushed.

Now that he had gotten dressed, there was a noticeable bulge in his pants. He turned around as he finished getting dressed and I couldn't help the small giggle that escaped my lips.

"Come on" I said as I put on my heels.

"Ness" he sighed unhappily.

"Oh! Umm . . . walk right behind me then" I suggested getting redder.

"That'll make it worse" he mumbled.

"Okay, then just walk next to me" I said and he sighed before walking over to me.

"I'll be right behind you" he said in my ear.

I nodded and walked out. We walked down the stairs and headed for the door.

"Hey Ness! Leaving?" Matt asked at the door.

"Yeah, the party was awesome though" I said as we headed out.

Everyone was absorbed in their own thing and they didn't notice us leaving the mansion. We climbed into the car.

"You're dad is going to skin me alive and then make your life hell" he murmured as we drove home.

"Technically, nothing happened, really" I said and I saw him smile slightly.

I glanced at the clock and cursed.

"Crap. It's already 1:30, maybe he will kill us" I said as we parked.

"Do you want to go in through the back since . . . "

"No, I'm fine" he said as he helped me out. "Come on" he said as we went inside.

We headed straight for our rooms but was stopped by dad. Joy.

"Sorry dad, I know it's late, we lost track of time" I said.

He sniffed the air and his eyes widened.

"Renesmee . . . were you drinking?!?!" he asked getting angrier.

A/N

Hey Guys! So, what did you think? Poor Nessie. She was all stressed out and now this. I really wasn't sure how to take this. I needed to think up something that would get Edward really mad (and it's not being drunk, just saying) and I really wasn't sure what todo. This just seemed a logical thing to do. I thought of the idea but I wasn't sure but I finally decided yes! Don't worry, the climax is coming so don't stop reading or say "Great so now Jake F** Nessie" I said you might be confused but just hold on at least until the next chapter. Sucks though, getting drunk unwantedly and then wake up in bed. So, I have a very busy next few weeks but I'm determined to try to stay on track. If my updates are a bit late, I'm sorry. I promise they will never be up later than a SUnday (Which is rare if I even get it on a Sunday) They set the release date of the movie companion the day before the movie comes out. Remember to reserve your tickets, the theaters will be full!

Days until Eclipse Premier: 82 Weeks until Eclipse premire: 10 and 5 days Movie Companion Comes: June 29th The Second Life of Bree Tanner: June 5th
