Chapter Two - New York Here We Come!
"I'll miss you." Jake whispered as he grazed his lips against my ear softly.
"I'll miss you too." I said quietly biting my lip trying to fight back the tears, I snuggled into his chest deeper and his arms wrapped tighter around me. He kissed my hair lightly and I buried my face down as tears silently slid down my face, soon Jake noticed little pools of salty drops on his jeans.
"Nessie, don't cry." he soothed "I will miss you so much but it's good for you to do some shopping, we have the rest of our lives together." I bit my lip and focused on keeping my voice stable. It failed miserably.
"I know that, it's just it's three whole days away from you, can't you come?" I asked my voice wobbled. Jacob laughed lightly and pulled my chin up to face him, he kissed my lips once lightly before speaking again.
"I don't think Alice will like that very much."
"I don't care." I gripped tightly to his bare arm and smiled at his copper face. "Nothing or no one can seperate us."
"Forever." he agreed nodding, a cheeky glint sparkled in is eyes and soon we were rolling around on the grass playing and laughing like we used to do when I was ten. Jacob gave me a small kiss and then I heard someone clear there throat. I launched to my feet recognising that tone anywhere.
"Hey Dad." I said harmlessly pulling the grass out of my hair, I gave up. Jacob stood beside me doing the same thing. Dad raised his eyebrows.
"Hello Edward." Jacob said politely and I could see the caulculating going on in my fathers eyes.
"Auntie Alice is ready to leave Renesmee, everyone wants to say goodbye." He said taking my hand and pulling my back to the house, Jacob took my other hand silently, we were back to the house in minutes. As we approached the house I saw that they were packing up Alice's porsche with the three weekend bags, all our family looked up and smiled as they saw us approach. I kissed and hugged each member. I was going to miss them all, our family was stronger together.
"Here darling, me and your grandfather want to give you this she said pushing a small envelope into my hands, don't open it till your away." she smiled and hugged me again. I kissed Jacob goodbye and Alice had to drag me to the car, I was going to have bruises on my arms from her tugging but I didn't care if it let me have a few extra seconds with him. I was bundled into the back of the yellow car with the three bags trying to fight back the tears that threatened to overwhelm me for the second time. As we pulled out of the Cullen house and out of sight tears slid silently down my face for the again. Alice had plugged her iPod into her car and was playing girly classics through the car, both sat there singing and giggling while I tried to get the water works under control.
"Tissues are in the front pocket of the first bag." Alice casually told me, then peered over the headrest to look deep into my brown eyes, her smile was small.
"Thanks Alice." I mumbled as I fiddled with the zip on the bag. I wiped my tears away with the tissue and blew my nose. After I inhaled a shaky breath Rosalie spoke.
"We'll be back before they even have a chance to miss us, anyway I think that the boys are going to do somthing anyway." Rose said smiling into the rearview mirror. "Just enjoy yourself Nessie." Rosalie was right this was a weekend with two people I absolutely loved so the smile I wore was bright and the tears seamed to dry up, the smile wasn't the same one I had to fake when we said goodbye but a natural one. Alice turned the volume of the music up and soon we were singing and dancing to the words.
"Man, I feel like a woman!" Rosalie sang along. Alie tapped the steering wheel and bobbed her head.
A few hours later and I noticed that the envelope Esme had given me was on the seat beside me, I picked it up and fiddled with it in my hands. Alice seamed aggitated by this gesture.
"Nessie, just open the damn envelope." she sighed, my fingers obeyed and out fell a shiny purple credit card and a small note attached, it simply read.
' Use it well. We love you.
Grandpa Carlilse and Grandma Esme x'
"Is this what i think it is?" I asked gobsmacked. My eyes widened as I ran my fingers over the plastic, the numbers popped out at me.
"Yup, that is a credit card to the Cullen Family Fund, I can't believe you got it so early, it took Alice over twenty years to get her hand on the account details." Rosalie giggled but Alice pouted, I just stared at the shiny plastic card I held in my hands. We drove in silence for a little while but I soon noticed a sign for "New York City" and we were soon aiming for the "Big Apple".
"Oh my! New York?! No way!!" I squeeled in delight and Aunt Rose and Aunt Alice wore some of the biggest smiles I had ever seen, they also hads the same cheeky glint in their eyes whenever shopping was mentioned. We drove through the tightly packed city streets until we came to a large hotel. It was extremely grand and reached high into the sky. My eyes took in the large building.
"Welcome to The Mayfair ma'm" the bellhop chimed as he held the large doors open for us. "Why hello Miss Alice and Miss Rosalie back so soon? And who is this?"
"Of course Brian. This is Renesmee" Alice chimed putting a wedge of dollar notes into his hands. "Can we have our bags up to our usual room pleasee?"
"Of course, enjoy your stay. Welcome Miss Renesmee" he smiled again.I giggled lightly.
"I remember coming here when this place first opened, don't you Alice?" Rosalie asked as we walked through the marble hotel lobby. Alice nodded.
"Hello Miss Alice, we have stocked the bar like you requested." the receptionist called.
"Thanks Carol." she replied with a dazzling smile, it seamed that all the hotel staff knew my Aunties. I started to wonder how often they came here, considering they were on first name terms with many members of staff.
"What floor?" I asked as we stood in the elevator.
"Penthouse of course." Rosalie said bending around me to press the button. The doors closed and the elevator started.
