I saw him stand, running a hand through his sleek hair absentmindedly. He grabbed his bag and an empty plate sitting in front of him. Then, he started to walk away. My heart must have skipped a beat. The idea of him leaving scared me. Where was he even going? Would he come back?

Thankfully, someone stopped him, placing a tanned hand on his shoulder. Someone I didn't know. She was quite tall, just barely reaching his shoulders. Her blond hair reaching just below the shoulders with curls left in there tracks. Fake, nothing like my own. She turned briefly, allowing my eyes to scan her face. She wore a thick layer of make-up, her blue eyes barely visible under the layers of mascara she bared. Her lips plump. The ideal Barbie.

Straightening his shirt he turned, his eyes briefly catching mine. Embarrassed, that he had caught me staring I shifted my eyes downward. Trying to look anywhere else but at him, I looked around. I was in a lunch room of some sort- maybe a school cafeteria?- I wasn't entirely sure. I had never been here before.

Students flittered by, exiting through the large glass at the front door leading out of the big blue room, to the outdoors. It appeared to be time to leave. I wondered briefly if Jacob had left with his friend. I let my eyes wonder back to the god on the other side of the room.

I felt my cheeks redden as I realized he was starring at me. Though I didn't look away. His black eyes bored into mine. The blond sitting next to him seemed to be having a conversation with him. Seeming to realize that he wasn't paying any attention, she turned to see what was distracting him. Her eyes scanned the room briefly, landing on me. The thought "If looks could kill" passed through my mind. She glared daggers. I felt myself become frightened. Swiftly I turned my gaze to the floor.

Why was I embarrassed? Why was I frightened? She had no claim on him at all. And I did. Determined lifted my head.

My heart stopped. The women placed a single kiss on his lips as she departed. She had a claim. My Jacob, My Jacob. No one else's!

I woke with a start. Hot tears streamed down my face. I wasn't sure if I started to cry when I woke or if the tears flowed while I slept. Jacob, my Jacob. My hand flew over my mouth to muffle the sob that was threatening to break free - hoping know one heard.

I was never that lucky. The door flew open. Leave. Me. Alone. I just wanted to be alone. Suddenly warm arms were around. Nothing compared to the cold ones of my heart stopped. Was he….?

"Jacob?" I chocked through the tears, hopeful.

The arms that constricted around me tighten. "Shh," He said. It wasn't a confirmation. It could've been Seth, QuiI, or any other of the wolves. Though I couldn't help but hope, still.

"Jacob?" I asked , my voice rising, the hope beginning to fade.

"No, sweetie. It's Seth. I'm Seth," he was speaking so fast it was becoming hard to understand. "Your family had to go hunting. There eyes were pitched. And then they couldn't find Jake, so they asked me to take over here for a while."

I shuddered at the mention f Jacob. They still hadn't found him.

"Ness? Nessie, are you okay?" he asked his voice becoming frantic.

"I-I'm fine." I stuttered, unthinkingly. I briefly wondered if I was okay.

"My parents left?" I asked shocked, just registering that fact. That was totally out of character. It must have been dire. "Ho-how long have I been asleep," I whispered.

"A couple days. Maybe more," he murmured against my skin, on which he arrested on my shoulder, rocking me.

I gasped. I had been out for a couple of days?!

"What happened?" I gasped, the tears starting to lighten.

"When you went missing, you were hurt. Badly. You dislocated both kneecaps, and a couple of broken ribs. How on gods green earth, I don't know."

Shocked, I recalled that night. I didn't remember any pain. Only when Seth had lead me away. I couldn't recall anything that could've caused the injuries. Was it the fear, the adrenaline, the ache find him? I didn't know.

"Ness, what did happen to you. Did someone hurt you?" He asked shifting so that his eyes could look into mine. "Did he hurt you?" I started to shake.

He arms tighten impossibly around my frame. "NO!" I cried pushing him away with all the force I had in me. Swiftly I looked around. I was in my room. I saw my opportunity for escape. My window was open wide.

Frantically I pushed onto the floor, trying to stand. I gasped at the impact, falling back over in the pain, onto the tile.

"Ness," Seth stated calmly, picking me gently off the floor and into his arms. "Did you not just hear me?"

"PLEASE!" I screamed. "Just leave me alone. This is my fault! NOT Ja-," I was cut off by the sobs. I started to struggle against his warm hold wishing for freedom.

"Renesmee," He hissed hold me as tight as possible to stop the struggles, " Stay still, Damn it! Look at your knees!" I obeyed his 2nd command. My knees were blood red, soaking completely through the gaze wrapped around it. Instantly I stopped moving. "Yes. Very good." He soothed, laying me back down on the bed.

"W-where's Jacob?" I demanded, holding as still as possible.

"I don't know, Hun. But don't worry, we'll find him."

Once again tears welled din my eyes blurring my vision.
