The ride to school was silent. I was excited that Jacob was still here. We've spent every second we could together. We went to the movies, he took me out to dinner a few times, and we even went out once with Quil and Claire, before they had to go back home. The two of them looked so in love it made me sick. I didn't think it was possible to see people more in love than my parents. Quil and Claire never took their eyes off each other the entire time we were out. I hope I can find live like that.

"Will you please tell me what your thinking?" My dad said impatiently. His sudden outburst made me jump.

"Nothing." I answered quickly.

"Between you and your mother, the two of you are going to drive me insane!"

We were at the school and Derek and Melissa were walking towards the car.

"Sorry, but I like it this way." I smiled and leaned over to kiss his cheek.

"Hey, Edward." Derek bent over and waved through the passenger door.

My dad groaned. "Ness, Bella will pick you up after school." He informed me.

I nodded and closed the door behind me.

"You coming to my party this weekend?" Derek asked me.

His parents were away on business, so he was throwing a party. Apparently it was a big deal in high school to party. Since this was my sophomore year I was due to appear at one.

I shrugged. "Sure." I could easily get away from my parents now. "Jake will still be here. I'll have him bring me."

Derek nodded and we walked to class.

I sat silently in my seat as I waited for class to start. That's when I saw him, muscles and all. He gave new meaning to tall dark and handsome. I watched his eyes flash around the room until they landed on me. My heart stopped, and my breath caught. His glare was even sexy. His eyes widened and narrowed when my heart started beating again. I immediately knew we were no longer the only vampires living in Boston, Massachusetts.

The seat behind me was the only one open and I watched him walk swiftly down the isle towards me. His eyes baring into mine. He bent his head down to my level and flashed me the most angelic smile I have ever seen, and slid silently into the seat behind me.

"Hey." His voice was smooth and soft.

I turned slightly in my chair, trying to hide my smile. "Yes?"

"I'm Luke."

"Renesmee."

He nodded, his golden eyes sparkled. "Do you happen to have a pen I could borrow?" I caught him out of the corner of my eye chuck his pen across the room. It moved so fast, no one noticed.

"Did yours happen to fly away?"

He nodded and it made him look sexier. My heart stopped again. His eyes dropped down to my chest and he smiled. I handed him my pen and turned quickly in my chair to face the front of the room. Something hard kicked my shin.

"Derek." I hissed and rubbed the spot that he kicked.

Derek just shook his head, his eyes showed nothing but worry.

The bell rang and Luke was bending over to pick up my bag.

"Thanks, but I think I can handle it." I smiled.

"Walk with me, talk with me." Luke spoke and I had no choice but to obey. His voice sent a shock though my entire body.

"Ness, come on." Derek took my hand roughly.

"I'll be there in a minute." I hissed and reclaimed my hand.

As soon as Derek walked into the boys locker room, Luke was sanding over me. His head lowered until his lips were at my ear. "What the hell are you? I know you're not human."

"You're half right." I giggled. "Your not human either… vampire." I whispered.

Be backed away from me and smiled. "Your quick. So what are you? Your scent is… different."

"Hybrid." I sighed. "Mom was human, Dad is a vampire. Mom was turned after I was born."

"Seriously? That's… new. I've never heard of a human and a vampire getting together."

I laughed. "Yeah, well my parents don't like to follow the rules."

"Hey, you feel like going to class? We could go for a walk." His eyes glared into mine.

I forgot how to talk, so I nodded. His cold hand wrapped around mine as we walked swiftly out the side doors.

We walked to the nearest park. "So tell me something," I started.

"Anything." He answered quickly.

"Where did you come from? We've been the only vegetarian vampires in the area. I don't recognize you."

"What's your last name?" Luke asked.

"Cullen."

He leaned away from me and gasped. "You're a Cullen?"

"You know the name?"

"Do I? Your coven-"

"Family." I corrected him.

"Right, sorry. Your family is the reason why my creator decided to live the life your… dad?

"Carlisle? He's my grandfather."

Luke nodded. "Yes, him, he wanted to live the life your grandfather started. It helps pass the time easily. I actually like it. Being good feels… good."

We both laughed. "So, it's just the two of you then?"

Luke nodded. "We've been searching for mates, I think it's time I settled down." He leaned over, his breath cool against my face.

"Oh," was all I could say.

Luke chuckled lightly. "So, did your family really go up against the Volturi and survive?"

I nodded, still not able to find my voice.

"That's awesome." He said excitedly. "So, looks like we're going to be sharing the land. You think your family is willing to share?"

I cleared my throat. "Well, er… as long as you don't go killing any humans, I don't see why my family wont welcome you."

"Renesmee." My mom's voice came from behind me. She sounded worried, but not mad, so I decided to keep Luke by my side.

By the fountain mom. I'm fine, come meet my new friend.

"I have to get used to that." My mom said behind me.

I turned and smiled at her, but she was frozen as she glared at Luke. Her eyes immediately took in the color of his and she relaxed.

"Mom, meet Luke. Luke this is my mother, Bella."

"Hello." My mom smiled warmly. Her hand reached out and took mine, pulling me to stand next to her.

"Bella? Bella Cullen? You're the one that caused the Volturi to run away, defeated." My mom's arm tightened around me and a hiss escaped her lips. She did that whenever the Volturi is mentioned. "Renesmee is your daughter? That means Edward Cullen is your husband, right?"

"How do you know all this?" My mother demanded.

Luke held up his hands showing her no harm is meant from him. "Mrs. Cullen, I'm terribly sorry if my knowledge of your family is startling you."

"I'm not scared." My mom snapped.

Luke nodded. "My creator knows a lot about your family. In a way your father-in-law is a idol to him."

"What's his name?"

"Cooper Jennings."

My mom shook her head. "I don't know the name."

"We came from New York."

"Well, would you like to come meet the rest of my family? You seem to already know my daughter."

"Thank you Mrs. Cullen. I would be honored. Cooper is out hunting for the day. He'd be sorry he missed this opportunity."

"It's Bella, and maybe another time then."

Luke turned to run, but my mom reached out and grabbed his arm. "We don't run around during the day. I have a car in front of the," my mom looked at me. "School where I was supposed me be picking someone up."

I shrugged and flashed her my innocent smile.

"I'm sorry Mrs.- I mean Bella. That was my fault. I walked into her class and immediately heart her heartbeat. It made me curious as to what she was. I didn't mean to pull her from school."

"Just don't let it happen again." She spoke to me.

I nodded.

We walked into my house and Alyssa was already pacing in front of the door with Jacob. "You missed an entire day of school! Where were you?" Alyssa demanded.

"An entire day?" My mom asked.

"I made it to my first period class." I shrugged innocently.

"Who's that?" Alyssa asked as Luke walked into the house behind my mom.

Jacob stiffened. His arms reached out for me and my mom.

"Relax Jake. He's clean." My mom pulled her hand out of his.

"Bella?" My dad appeared between her and Luke.

"Luke, this is my husband, Edward."

Luke held out his hand and my dad took it cautiously. His eyes flickered to me as he looked inside Luke's head.

"I must ask you not to pull Renesmee out of school like that again."

"Yes sir." Luke nodded.

My grandparents and the rest of my family came to meet Luke. He seemed to get along with everyone, but Uncle Jasper. Which made my Aunt Alice seem uncomfortable with whatever he was showing her. My dad's eyes would flash to Uncle Jasper every so often, but he seemed calm. I made a mental note to ask Uncle Jasper about it later.
