After Alyssa and I tried on half of my mom's dresses, we finally decided what we were going to wear. I settled on a white sundress with my own sandals. My hair hung down in the normal loose curls.

Alyssa decided on white denim shorts with a orange lace cami.

"Are you ladies ready?" Jacob asked, knocking on the bedroom door.

"All set!" I skipped over to the door, yanking it open.

Jacob's mouth fell open with a pop. His eyes moved, slowly, from my face all the way down to my feet. I blushed.

"That's… you're…" Jacob took a deep breath. "Beautiful." He sighed.

I looked behind him at my mother approaching. "Thanks," she pushed him into the wall. "I wore that a week ago."

"You did?" Jacob scratched his head as he tried to remember.

My mom rolled her eyes and shoved him again. "Yes, I did." She growled.

"Oh, well… was I maybe… not around?" Jacob shifted uncomfortably.

"I wore it the day we took Renesmee to be measured." My mom crossed her arms against her chest. "You drove," she added impatiently.

Jacob scratched his head again. "Are you sure?"

"Ness was wearing a je--" Jacob brightened up and nodded.

"Oh, she wore that jean shirt and the blue and white striped tank top with her white flip flops."

She growled deeper and raised her hand slapping the back of his head.

"Ow! I'm sorry!" He hissed.

She turned her attention on me and nodded. "Approved."

"If she wears a sweater or something over the top." My dad appeared behind Jacob.

"Dad, it's like eighty degrees outside!"

"No it's not, and you don't want to get sick."

I rolled my eyes. "It's summer, it's warm out, and I haven't been sick since I was really little!" I wined.

"Well you got sick once, who's to say it won't happen again? Better be safe."

I looked at my mom and she was starring at my dad.

"Mom," I said to get her attention.

Without breaking her trance, she leaned over to kiss my cheek. "Have a good time. Jake, take them to Carlisle and Esme's after. They are staying there tonight."

"Bella," my dad started but she raised an eyebrow and he stopped talking.

Jacob took my hand and I reached for Alyssa's.

Seth had the same reaction for Alyssa that Jacob did for me. Alyssa said goodbye to her parents and we left. The restaurant was familiar. It was a favorite of mine. Most people needed a reservation, but my dad always got us in.

"Four, please. The reservation is under Black." Jacob informed the host.

"It's going to be forty-five minutes." He informed us, not even looking up.

Jacob tensed beside me and I pulled him behind me. "Hi, maybe you could check again?" I asked impatiently. "Anything for Cullen? Right away? And I like the booth in the back, by the window."

The host that usually takes care of us hurried over to me. "Oh, Miss Cullen. How nice to see you here. Where is your sister this evening?" He asked as he took four menus from the dumbfounded host.

"She's home with her husband," I smiled politely, slipping him a fifty dollar bill. "But I'm sure my friends and I will be taken care of. I could call my brother-in-law if you would like." I offered.

He swallowed and shook his head. "That will not be necessary. To your table?"

"Yes, please."

Jacob bent down and whispered in my ear. "You are truly a Cullen, Ness. Only your father would teach you something like that. It's a lot sexier when you do it though."

I sighed, relieved. "Sexier? Wow, thanks." I blushed.

I was pleased to see that he wasn't upset. Most guys in the relationships take care of the females. At least that's what I see on TV. I wasn't brought up that way, and I wasn't sure how Jacob would react to me taking charge. A part of me waited for him to get mad and call me a spoiled brat, but he seemed more impressed than anything. I didn't know how to be the damsel in distress. That's not the girl my parents raised.

He stood behind my chair and pushed me in. Seth did the same for Alyssa and we exchanged glanced.

"So, who taught you manners?" I asked taking a sip of my water.

Jacob and Seth laughed uneasily.

"What do you mean?" Seth asked.

"She means, you guys would have never known to do that." Alyssa chuckled.

"No one helped us." Jacob lied. His face gave him away. He never made eye contact when he was lying about something.

"Seth," Alyssa's voice raised as she said his name. A warning. I bit my lip to keep from smiling.

"Edward," Seth mumbled. "Jacob mentioned that he knew Nessie liked this place. He offered to call ahead, but Jacob insisted on doing it all himself. Edward told him we probably weren't getting in last minute unless Nessie stepped in. Jacob didn't seem to mind, but then Edward told us what he need to do at a place like this." Seth spoke quickly.

Alyssa and I looked at each other before laughing.

I felt even more at ease, since Jacob had a warning of what I was going to have to do. I leaned forward, laying my hand on his leg. "This was very thoughtful, I love it." I said softly.

Jacob leaned in to kiss me. "Well, I'm glad you like it."

We ordered our food and ate while we talked and laughed. This night was ending up to be perfect.

Jacob drove to the harbor and we walked hand in hand. Alyssa and Seth decided to walk the opposite direction that Jacob and I wanted to go in. Jacob's fingers threaded through mine. They wound together perfectly. Like they were meant just for each other. I stared down at our fingers until Jacob broke the silence.

"Show me what your thinking." He said softly. I smiled at the way our relationship was so different from others. Most men would ask their girlfriends to tell them that their thinking. Not Jacob. He would rather me show him. I was perfectly content with that.

I flashed him pictures of how perfectly our lives molded together. From my very first memories he was there. Every time I needed a friend, a shoulder, protective arms to keep me safe, someone to keep me warm, he was there. I showed him bright colors when I knew he was around, and darker ones when he was away.

Jacob stepped in front of me, wrapping his arms around me and picking me up, making our lips meet. "I love you," he moaned breathlessly.

I smiled against his lips. If I knew my thoughts would bring out this reaction, I would have done it a long time ago.

We stumbled around, both of us not able to hold the other up. But Jacob didn't let us fall to the ground. That part I didn't like, but as long as he kept kissing me the way he was, I'd be fine.

Jacob gasped and I felt him stumble over something. Wind rushed by me and I realized we were falling. Instead of hitting the dock, we landed in the water.

"You're parents are going to kill me," Jacob groaned. He still held me tight against him.

"Not going home, remember?" I wrapped my legs around his waist, and for once, he didn't push me away. With a grunt, his lips were moving with mine again.

His hands slid down my back, moving under my dress. His hands were warmer than the water against the skin on my back.

Out of nowhere I could see his face, hear his words echoing inside my head: "I'm not discussing ages anymore. I said I would prefer you wait until you were eighteen. It's your life, do with it what you will. I find out you… I will be very disappointed in both of you." My father's words repeated over and over again, getting louder and angrier.

With a groan I pulled away from Jacob. "No!" I gasped.

"What?" Jacob loosened his grip, sliding his hand away from my skin.

"My dad," I whispered.

"Where?!" Jacob shrieked and let me go. I caught myself before dipping under the water. His eyes searched the dark.

"He's not here," I wrapped my arms around his neck. "But I cant disappoint him. He wants me to wait until I'm done growing, or until I'm eighteen before having sex. I can keep my thoughts away from him, but I don't want you to have to avoid him."

Jacob snorted. "Is that all your worried about?" He asked. "Not the fact that he personally asked you to wait, but because if we made love right now, my thoughts would not be hidden from him?"

I bit my bottom lip and nodded.

Jacob rolled his eyes. "Ok, Bella."

I raised an eyebrow.

"That's only something your mother would say."

"Oh," I sighed. I couldn't help the disappointment in my voice. I was still getting used to the fact that Jacob knew my mom better than she knew herself. Although she may have his past, I have his future.

"Lets go find Seth and Alyssa." Jacob kissed me once more before helping me out of the water.

"What the hell happened to you?" Seth laughed.

"We got wet." Jacob mumbled.

"Obviously," Alyssa chuckled.

"What will my sister think about this?" Seth said teasingly.

Jacob lunged at Seth, both of them wrestling around on the ground. "Bella is not going to find out. Renesmee is going to her grandparents house.

"Well," I said smugly. "There's only one way to even out the field."

Jacob didn't need to hear my thoughts in order to know what I was thinking. He nodded and stood up pushing Seth towards the water. I was stronger than Alyssa, so it was easy for me to push her off the doc.

The four of us splashed around in the water until two policemen shone their flashlights on our faces.

"This is a no swimming zone." The deep voice spoke impatiently behind the light.

"Out of the water," the other man sounded as if he was bored.

Seth and Jacob helped Alyssa and I out of the water. Both Seth and Jacob stood in front of us, blocking the cops lights from shining over us. I was grateful since I had on a white dress.

"How old are you girls?" The deeper voice asked.

"Fifteen," Alyssa and I answered at the same time.

"You boys have to be at least eighteen, right? Aren't these girls a little young to be out here so late?"

"No, sir. Their parents know where they are." Jacob informed the police officers. They didn't seem to be interested in what he had to say.

"Really? Well why don't we just find out then."

Jacob took my hand and held me close to him. His eyes never left the cops.

"You can take them home, but their parents left us in charge of them. We're going too." I didn't see the look Jacob gave the cop, but he agreed on it.

"What about Aunt Bella's car?" Alyssa whispered.

"Dad will pick it up tomorrow." I told her.

"Where do you live?" The cop asked me through the rearview mirror.

I gave them my grandparents address and phone number so they could back up my story that we all were to report back there.

Grandma, Grandpa, don't panic everything is fine. Alyssa and I are being escorted home by cops, but Jacob and Seth are with us. We just did some illegal swimming off the docs. Nothing to worry our parents about. They're going to call you any second. I ran though the story I told them.

I listened closely to the conversation from the front seat and I knew they got my message. I giggled to myself. What a nifty talent at a time like this. Jacob glared down at me and mouthed, "Did you do that?" And pointed to the cop driving while talking to one of my grandparents. I nodded. "That a girl," he whispered too low for the cop to hear. Jacob glanced behind us at the other cop car carrying Seth and Alyssa.

When we pulled up to the house my grandparents were already outside waiting. Their expressions were very believable. They looked angry. And that took a lot for Esme and Carlisle Cullen to ever have a frown on their faces.

The cops released the four of us to them. Once they left my grandpa put his arm across my shoulder. "You're first double date and the cops bring you home." He chuckled.

I shrugged.

"But she got out of it, only the way a Cullen would." Jacob rolled his eyes.

Esme and Carlisle laughed at him.

Alyssa and I were sent to our room to change and go to bed. They gave us the night free, but in the morning we would have to tell our parents what happened. Being that both my parents were over reactors--I didn't stand a chance.
