"How again did you talk me into this?" Renesmee griped as she stood at the top of a cliff in La Push. Jake wasn't being much of a help, snickering into his hand while failing horribly at trying to disguise it as a cough. Somehow, jumping off the top of a cliff into the dark water below didn't seem like a good idea. She spun away from the edge and turned to glower at her...boyfriend.

Boyfriend was a poor excuse for a title. She knew about imprinting now, her 18th birthday having been a week ago. Well....she technically wasn't eighteen, but you know the story. Jake wiped the tears from his eyes and tried to look sympathetic..or at least somewhat serious.

"You can do this Nessie...it's fun." He walked up to the edge and looked down at the water, worry marring his features for a minute. "The water doesn't look rough, you are a good swimmer anyway." Still, Jake had insisted that he be in the water waiting for her. Honestly, sometimes she thought of buying him a shirt that said bodyguard. She couldn't say this annoyed her though, it made her sort of melt to know he cared about her so much.

Renesmee walked back to the edge and peered into the water while Jake went to grab something from his bag on a nearby rock. "I'm not scared...I was just wondering how you came up with this little sport." She folded her arms and smiled crookedly, gazing at him as he straightened up with another laugh.

"Sure, sure, I still think your stalling Nessie."

Renesmee narrowed her eyes before opening them wider to dispel the mischievous glint in them. She took slow steps backwards until she felt her heels touch the end of the cliff. "I have to admit, this is quite a feat. Catch you at the bottom." With a small tinkling wave of her hand at her boyfriends shocked face she slowly leaned backwards and fell off the cliff.

Renesmee had a feeling she knew what flying was. As she plummeted towards the water doing several flips she was torn between laughing with adrenaline or shrieking in terror. The wind whipped by her and her eyes blurred as the water came closer. Finally she reached the bottom and angled herself for a almost perfect dive into the water. It was a little colder than she thought, but not scary and dark. She smiled underwater until she was pulled up by a hand.

Jacob was not smiling, or laughing. In fact he looked a little....scared? Renesmee was more than sure that he had done that jump multiple times before. "Jake..what's wrong?" He didn't answer but towed her to shore and let go of her arm after tossing her a towel.

Renesmee's eyes were blurring again, this time not because of the water. She sat down in the sand and dried her hair, counting the threads to banish the tears. She didn't look up when he sat down next to her.

"I'm sorry, I didn't meant to hurt your feelings, and I didn't mean to be angry with you." He gave her a sad sheepish smile. "It was just a sense of deja vu I guess." He took her hand and surrounded it with his big warm one. She looked up at him, puzzled, and laid a finger on his face.

"Why?"

Jake blew out his breath in a gust and seemed to consider something before answering her question. "Have you parents told you much of the past...before they were married?" At the shake of her head he continued on. "I guess they wanted me to tell you...probably thinking it was my story to give." He let go of her hand and looked her square in the face. "I have something to tell you."

"Where to start....." He mused for a minute and asked a new question. "Did you know that your father left your mother?" Renesmee's wide eyes answered his question. "About...oh a good seven or eight years ago now. It just about killed her that much was easy to see. Your daddy had still loved Bella very much. She was human then." His took a breath and forged on. "You see, vampires and humans existing together..it's rare. It's this way because of how dangerous it was. You know how your mom had been attacked by James?"

Renesmee nodded, having seen the faint traces of the scar on her hand. Her father had only been able to tell her in a halting voice, and she stopped after seeing how much it hurt him to recount it. Jake continued after a moment of silence.

"Your daddy knew that since she had started dating him her life was always in danger. From them, and from others. He left her to erase the danger in her life. They were apart for six months, though it didn't work out for them. Over the time he was gone your mom was hunted by the friends of James. They wanted revenge, and we protected her. The way she was back then though, it was like they both held chunks of eachother when they parted."

Jake seemed to be hesitant to continue after this. "Well, he came back and everything was all happy again I suppose. Victoria, the female hunting your mom wasn't giving up. We had killed Laurent, and wanted revenge. Since we were all protecting Bel..your mom she decided that killing her would be a way to ruin all of us. I..sort of had a crush on your mom Nessie."

Renesmee looked so staggered that Jake would have laughed if this wasn't such a serious story. "And I kissed her before." Now Jake couldn't stop a smile from stealing over her face. Was it possible for vampire-human hybrids to have heart attacks? "That was before I saw you. I think it also explains why I imprinted on you. I was waiting. Are you mad at me?" Renesmee laid her palm against his cheek to show that she clearly wasn't. He smiled and continued.

"Well, I sort of kissed her without her permission. Anyway we managed to defeat Victoria and Bella went on to be married. You came into the story at this part. Of course, Bella became pregnant with you and the pack made peace with the vampires and everything was good again. Volturi gone." Renesmee knew this part of the story, but she was still confused.

"Why did my jumping off the cliff upset you so much?" Jake took her hand again and played with her fingers.

"When your dad left your mom she would do anything to hold onto the little pieces she still had of him, terrified her human mind would forget. When she did somethings stupid or reckless, she could hear his voice yelling at her. She missed him so much she was nearly getting herself killed chasing a figment of her imagination." He smiled quickly before continuing on. "She came here one night...it was pretty stormy. She wanted to hear his voice, and knew how to grant that wish. She jumped of the cliff."

At this Renesmee glanced at the top of the cliff and squeezed his hand before signaling he continue. "The water was rougher than she'd anticipated. She just about almost drowned, I thought she did. At this point though Nessie, I was pretty sure your mom had given up. Like all the sorrow had been to much for her to handle anymore. Well, Aunt Alice saw her jump and rushed here to comfort Grandpa Charlie. Aunt Rosalie called your dad thinking it was the right thing to do. When your dad heard he went to Italy hoping the Volturi would kill him." He ignored her slight gasp for the moment. "Your mom went to save him even thought it meant she could die."

Now he looked up with a real apology. "I didn't mean to be harsh, I just panicked when I saw you jump. It reminded me of when your mom had done it, I just couldn't lose you like that Nessie." He looked down at the sand but felt a cool hand lift his head back up. She was really crying now, but with a big smile on her face. She squeezed his hand and pulled him to his feet running up the hill to the cliff again. She wrapped her hands around his wrists, kissed him with a passion that may have beat his body temperature by a large amount, and walked them off the cliff together.
