Hey guys!! Sorry the update took so long. I've had one crazy week lol. Thanks for the great reviews, and as always keep them coming!! I might have the next chapter up on Sunday. This is another happy little chapter, no drama. Coming up next... everyone meets Gavin!!

Once I gave Claire and Alyssa the tour of the house, I dragged them outside to look at my four wheeler.

"Dad, can you take them for a ride?" I asked as I bounced around him. His arm was locked around my mom as they watched us run around the four wheelers.

"Bella." my dad said as he bent down to kiss her.

"Come on girls." My mom called out. She walked towards my four wheeler as my dad got on theirs.

Alyssa got on with my mom and Clair climbed on behind my dad.

We all took turns driving with my parents. Jacob and Quil went down to the beach, hopefully to keep Gavin away from me. My mom told me once we were getting our guests settled, that I had to go talk to him. If I didn't do it myself, she was going to take me down there. I don't know why she was so set on me not blowing him off. It made me think if she had a past relationship I didn't know about. I left it alone for the time being. I knew the right thing to do was talk to him.

After we were tired of the four wheelers we went into my room.

"So… spill!" Claire said eagerly as soon as I had the door shut behind me.

I narrowed my eyes at her, confused. "Spill what?"

"How was it?" Alyssa chimed in. She knew what Claire wanted, and I now had a pretty good idea.

"With Gavin?" I asked them.

They both picked up the pillows on my bed and hit me with them. "DUH!" They said at the same time and we burst out laughing.

"Everything ok in there?" My dad asked as he tapped lightly on my door.

"Fine, Edward." Clair chuckled.

"Bella will be bringing in some snacks in a few minutes." He added, speaking through the closed door.

"Ok!" The three of us said in unison.

"Turn up the radio." I whispered as low as I could.

Alyssa nodded, reached up on her knees, and turned the dial on my radio up. Our voices were drowned out by the music.

"So, tell us!"

I shrugged. "It wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be."

"What? Well what did it feel like?"

"Like… gross." I scrunched up my nose. "I got nothing from it. I like to pretend that it didn't happen." I sighed. "What about any of you?" I looked at Claire since she was a year older than Alyssa and I.

"Well…" She started and looked towards the closed door. "I do sort of like someone. But he's too old for me."

Alyssa and I both looked at the door. "Who?" I asked.

"He's here now." She whispered. I only understood what she said because I read her lips. The music was too loud for me to hear her whispers.

"Jacob?" My voice came out in a high pitch. I couldn't help the jealousy that shot through my body.

"No!" Claire shook her head.

Alyssa leaned forward to whisper, we all leaned in to hear her. Our heads almost touching. "Quil?"

"Yes!" Claire hissed.

"I knew it!" Alyssa boomed.

Claire clapped her hand over Alyssa's mouth. "Shut up! He'll hear you!"

"Why do you like Quil?" I asked, playing with a strand of my hair.

Claire sighed and smiled. "He's perfect in every way. He's always there for me, he's never done anything to upset me, and he's… well he's gorgeous!"

I nodded. "So, does he know this?"

"Nope." Alyssa shook her head. Her eyes got wide and she grabbed onto the tops of my arms. "He's not going to find out either!"

"I wont say a word." I promised.

"Good, besides he's like supposed to be in his twenties, I think."

"Well," Alyssa shrugged. "He's not growing or aging right now. He stopped just like the rest of the wolves. So he's frozen at 16 or 17 right now. Just like Jacob. Seth is younger than that. There is no way my mom would let me date someone like him. Although if he'd ask me I would definitely say yes!" Alyssa's gaze became distant as she stared off towards my wall.

"Come on guys! They're much older than us. There is no way they would be interested in us." I hated to kill the mood, but they were over thinking things.

Alyssa opened her mouth to talk but my mom walked through the door with a tray of food and drinks.

"Boy talk?" She asked, and winked at me.

I rolled my eyes and covered my face, embarrassed. "Ugh, mom go away." I moaned.

"What?" She shrugged. "I'm not one of those embarrassing moms, am I?" She asked me. "I'm young, I mean people think I'm your sister before they think that I'm your mother." She very nicely pointed out.

"So, I know the truth!"

"Hey, Bella?" Claire butted into my rant.

"What?"

"Have you ever been with anyone else besides Edward?"

My mom looked at me before she looked back at Claire. She took a deep breath and sighed. "You know, your right." She said to me. "I don't need to butt into your conversations. I'll be in later to take the tray." She said quickly before walking out of the room.

I now had a new mission. Find out my mom's past love life. It was obvious that there was someone else. Someone besides my dad, I shivered. That was a weird thing to think. My parents were so in love that it made me sick half of the time. The way they stare at each other, the way I catch them kissing whenever I turn my back, the fact that they don't sleep at night- I still don't want to even think about what goes on when I'm sleeping, and the way they are always touching. Weather it be holding hands, my mom sitting on my dads lap, his arm around her, her arm around him, didn't matter what part of them was touching just as long as they were. I couldn't picture my mom doing any of that with someone else.

"Hey, I have an idea." Alyssa whispered, breaking my train of thought.

"What?" Claire and I asked at the same time.

"Lets challenge Jacob, Uncle Edward, and Quil to a racing game. Loser has to be the others servant for the entire week." She smirked.

"Awesome!" I yelled and jumped to my feet.

We grabbed a hand full of cookies from the tray and ran out into the living room. As if to prove a point, there was my parents. Wrapped up in each other in a way I didn't think was possible. The TV was louder than usual, probably to drown out my radio. We stood there for a minute waiting for them to realize 3 children were standing in the room.

"So, is that how babies are made?" Alyssa asked, she fought to keep her voice serious. Even though my parents were fully clothed and no where near… that, it was still hilarious to see them jump.

"Girls, I didn't even hear you come out of the room." My dad looked down at my mom and narrowed his eyes. "Or even hear them think of leaving Renesmee's room."

My mom shrugged and gave her best innocent look, which wasn't hard for her. "Guilty. I thought it would be too much for you to listen in on their girly conversations. Besides, Nessie has been good lately."

I mouthed thank you to her.

"But wait, I'm still confused… was that how it goes?" Alyssa bit her bottom lip to stop from laughing.

My dad walked up to her and messed her hair. "No it's not, and stop turning into your father. How did you accumulate his sense of humor?"

"Many years of watching and listening." Alyssa said proudly.

"Well stop it." He said, and bent down to kiss the top of her head.

"Where's Jakey and Quil?" I asked looking around the living room.

"In your playroom." My dad nodded his head towards where my playroom was.

"We have a contest for you guys." Claire smirked.

My dad crossed his arms and smiled down at her. "And what might that be?"

"Lissy, Ness, and I against you, Jake, and Quil. We play one of Nessie's racing games and loser has to be the others servant for the week." Claire explained.

"Ok, ladies choice." My dad said, and bent down to kiss my mom. "And you can be the ref." He winked at her. "Since we all know you cant play any of those games if your life depended on it."

"It's just a stupid game." My mom snapped, and playfully slapped my dads arm.

We walked into my playroom and explained everything to Quil and Jacob. They were more than excited to play. Both of them already planning on things that they were going to make Claire and I do when they won. We had chosen the person we wanted to play against. Alyssa chose my dad because she knew if she won that Uncle Emmett wouldn't let him live it down. I chose Jacob because I knew Claire wanted to go against Quil, and ok, I wanted nothing more than to have Jacob at my beck and call, but I wont admit it to anyone… as long as everyone didn't include my dad. Apparently my mom pulled her shield off us. My dad glared at me and then looked at Jacob. I refused to meet his eyes.

"Ok! Dad and Lyss up first!" I quickly turned his attention from me to the game.

They started and the rest of us jumped around cheering them on. I was standing next to my mom so I reached over, taking her hand. I flashed her quick visions of her kissing my dad. I wanted her to distract him. Alyssa was only a few seconds behind him.

"Don't you dare, Bella!" My dad yelled just as my mom took a step towards him. She ignored him, and I looked away so he wouldn't see what she was doing through my thoughts. "Renesmee!" He wined as soon as I looked away.

He glanced over his shoulder just as my mom fluttered in front of him.

"Bell-" He was silenced by her lips. Quil and Jacob howled and hooted as my mom put more effort into the kiss. Within seconds the controller fell from my dad's hands as he brought them up to my mom. His left hand locked around her waist, his right moved to the back of her head grabbing a fist full of her hair.

Alyssa jumped up and danced in a circle. "I win!" She cheered.

"Only because Aunt Bella cheated for you." My dad said after he composed himself.

Alyssa shrugged. "I still won."

"I guess we're playing dirty." Jacob said as he grabbed my elbow, leading me towards the beanbag chair. "Sit, little girl." He said as he pressed my shoulders down, making me sit.

"Look it's Gavin!" My dad called out.

"Not gonna happen." I shook my head, not breaking my concentration.

"This woman can race." Jacob said when I won the race. Despite all the waving and jumping around by my dad and Quil. I was marveling over the fact that Jacob called me a woman. I glanced quickly at my dad glaring at me.

I shook my head, pushing the thought away. "I would like a coke, servant." I smirked.

"Same here." Alyssa chimed in.

"You have to." My mom pointed out.

They both grunted and walked out of the room. Claire and Quil were next. Alyssa and I were able to distract Quil just enough where Claire won by .2 seconds.

"I still call that a tie!" Quil said as he stood up to go get Claire her desired drink.

"It's passed midnight." My mom pointed out. "You don't have to go to sleep, but it's time to lay down."

We raced into my room, where my mom had set up the blowup mattresses across the middle of my room. The three of us lounged across the mattresses and talked until we fell asleep.

"AAHHHH!" I woke up to both Claire and Alyssa screaming. I was about to ask what the problem was, but a flash of lightning lit up my room and a loud crash of thunder made my ears ring. I was used to the storms here, but they never fail to scare me at night. Usually I ran towards my parents room, but always landed in my dad's arms halfway there.

"What is it?!" Quil and Jacob asked as they almost broke down my door.

As if to answer their questions another bolt of lightning lit up the room directly followed by an ear piercing clap of thunder. We screamed again.

"It's ok Quil, Jake. It's just the storm." My dad said as he pushed passed them.

"That's not a thunderstorm! It sounds like a war going on outside!" Claire cried. Quil walked over to her and she climbed into his arms.

Can we sleep in with Quil and Jacob? I'm sure you and mom don't want a room full of girls all night. I thought to my dad. He sighed and seemed to be deep in thought.

"Everything ok?" My mom asked. She tightened her light pink silk bathrobe around her when she noticed both Quil and Jacob standing in my room.

"Fine," My dad sighed. "Ness show your mother what you want. Let her decide." He said, not wanting to tell the others what I told him.

I walked swiftly over to my mom, rushing a little with the next round of lightning and thunder. Instead of just grabbing her hand I locked my arms around her, hiding my face in her bathrobe. I reached up and touched her neck.

"As long as you go right to sleep." She said sternly.

"I'll set up the beds on the floor in the playroom." She disappeared from in front of me so fast that I stumbled forward.

"I'll help." My dad said, and disappeared too. Leaving the 4 of them staring at me, confused.

"Slumber party in Quil and Jakey's room!" I smirked.

"They will sit with you until the storm is over. Quil take Renesmee's bed, and Jacob on the couch." My dad instructed. He turned to my mom and held onto her upper arms. "Your shield stays far, far away from that room." He told her.

"Of course!" She hissed. "I'm not that easy going."

"Just making sure." My dad sighed and led her out of the room.

"Hey Ness, why was your mom in a bathrobe, and your dad in pajama pants?" Claire asked.

I shrugged. "Beats me."

"Oh, I thought vampires didn't sleep." She sat for a moment, deep in thought.

"It's just so they're comfortable." Jacob said quickly.

Another clap of thunder filled the room and I was suddenly in Jacob's arms. "Sorry." I whispered as I backed away. No idea why I was apologizing, but I figured I had to.

"Not a problem." He smirked. "This is another side of you I've never seen before. Renesmee Cullen, scared of thunderstorms. Huh…" Jacob snorted.

"I'm not scared of thunderstorms, I'm terrified of these ones." My voice shook when the lighting flashed.

Jacob walked over to me and pulled me down on my mattress with him. I rolled so I was facing him, digging my face in his warm chest. I suddenly felt safe. A tornado could rip through the house right now and I would feel just as safe right here than if I was miles away from the tornado in a storm cellar. I suddenly felt Jacob's lips against my ear.

"Better?" He whispered. I couldn't talk, I don't think I was even breathing. I nodded my head instead. At least that didn't involve my voice or breathing.

I closed my eyes and fell asleep smiling. The fear of the storm vanished. I don't even remember hearing the thunder after Jacob took me in his arms.
