Chapter 1: It's not fair!

Bella's POV

"Mom please can I go to Jacob's for the night, pretty please?" Renesmee asked coming into the living room where i was just getting ready to leave.

"No" I replied "Not a chance."

"Awww, why not?" I'll be good." She pleaded, touching her hand to my face to show me a picture of her at Jacob's behaving really well.

"Being good is not what I'm worried about Nessie. And no it's not Jacob either. I just don't want you staying at his house over night. I'm sure Edward will back me up."

"I'll go ask him!" cried Renesmee already brightening up from this disappointing reaction from her mother. "Where is he?"

"Hunting, which is where I'm going now. You can join us if you want."

"No thanks, you'll just be kissing all over the place, every time you catch something. Which reminds me – I can hear you at night – it's disgusting! Wait…" an expression of realisation dawned on her face, "that's why you don't want me at Jake's overnight!"

"And that's why I think Edward will agree with me."

"Edward will agree with you on what?" asked Emmett, coming in from the rain that was pouring steadily outside and shaking his head like dog and spraying Nessie and me with water!

"Mom won't let me sleepover at Jake's tonight. She thinks he and I'll have –"

"Well, they are together now Bells" he grinned "Just because you and Edward are like nuns!"

"And you obviously have a very short memory. I distinctly remember one of our first agreements was that you wouldn't mention things like that! Anyway what my daughter does is my business not anyone else's. For a start she's only five."

"Technically, but i'm physically a teenager and mentally, well my mental capacity is higher than Emmett's!"

"I quite agree with you Bella, and I think you're right about Edward. Where is he by the way?" said Rosalie having followed Emmett in. "Is this water everywhere your fault?"

"Ooops!" he grinned, than grabbed her in a bear hug and gave her a big kiss.

"Edward's hunting, and I was on my way to join him, except I keep getting interrupted! Rose, is it ok if I catch up with your trip later?"

"Sure," she said pulling away from Emmett, "I was going to wait until Carlisle came home from the hospital anyway. Stop it!" Giggling she gave in to Emmett's insistent tugging towards their room.

"Ew, I'm leaving. I'll be at Jake's, and yes, I will be back before dark!" Nessie said, pre-empting my remonstrations, rolling her eyes at the same time.

"I'm going too. I really need to feed." I replied and left from the back door after her.
