Sorry I haven't updated in so long. I've been on a boat in France with limited Wi-Fi. Warning, when school starts again, I'll be limited as well, but I'll try and make the wait with it with a long chapter.

Did I keep my promise? That's going to happen every chapter now, sorry guys! I promise to check properly!

"Dad what are you doing in my room?" Just by being my dad he got a free pass to walk in on me. Great.

"What is he doing in your bed?" Dad wasn't angry, at least. And he could tell that we hadn't done anything just from reading our thoughts. "Watch it. I still don't like you." Dad walked out, he'd never really liked Jacob. They were born enemies, and only I kept them from officially, outright hating each other.

"It's him, isn't it? You're only saying no because he'd kill you. He may be evil, but he's not that evil. He wouldn't hurt me, or mum, like that." I knew it was true, and I would convince Jake it was ok to do what he wanted.

"Yeah, well, he can't be this protective for much longer, you're a grown woman." Jacob was doing his 'I'm being serious, not' faces.

"And I can decide for myself so ignore his death threats." I was facing the closed window, with Jacob smuggled up to my back. This is the best way to fall asleep...

"Nessie...wakey wakey...come on, up you get." Ugh.

"Go away dad." I rolled over under the cover and came face to face with Jacob.

"I may just be old enough to be your dad, but I prefer boyfriend." He was smiling at me. Oh God, he was in my bed. But I was fully clothed. And he has his shorts on. Weird.

"Why do we have to get up?" I remembered yesterday night, and how nothing big happened. Shame.

"Execution of killer vampire this afternoon. Don't want to come? It's already 11:00, you'd better get up soon if you want breakfast AND lunch before he gets the chop." I really wasn't bothered about witnessing Luke's execution, as long as it happened.

"Fine, but first I need girl time." Which involved washing, changing, brushing teeth, checking perfect features in mirror and a short time talking to my reflection. So I'd be out in about 5 minutes.

Downstairs, Jacob and dad were talking quietly about something. I had a very big idea on what it was about, but I was a fully matured woman, so why was he making such a fuss?

"Oh, Nessie, as its Saturday, do you want to go to the execution?" That sounded sick, in a bad way. But I still wanted to go. I would see that traitor's head burnt before I was satisfied.

"I'm coming." Jacob walked me out of the door, and on the way out I took a look back at my dad. He was standing there waiting us go. He was frowning, which was weird.

Jacob phased and together we ran to the Big Field. I entered the large clearing and stopped dead. On the centre rock, Luke was sitting facing the other way. The rest of my family arrived behind me.

"Family shield." Said mum as we started to feel her shield ability saying to protect us. "Should I cover Luke as well?"

"No. He tried to kill Jacob." I wanted so badly to see Luke at Jane's mercy, writhing in agony on the floor.

"Haven't we all?" Not funny Emmett.

"Still here." Jacob agreed then.

"They're coming." Alice looked dazed, just like after a vision. "Now."

I could see, about a quarter of the way round from us, Aro, Jane and Alec stepped into the field, followed by another dozen all in black. Luke stood up and turned to face them. Just like that, he dropped down on the stone, subject to Jane's painful ability. I couldn't take this. I'd changed my mind. Just kill him quickly.

When the the mass of black reached him, they split so they surrounded him. I'd kissed that guy. What was I thinking, letting him die? I wasn't a monster, I was alive, so why shouldn't he be?

I sprinted to the rock and leapt into the centre of the circle.

"I thought you wanted me dead." Luke looked at me, surprised.

"Changed my mind. You'd better not make me regret this." I stood in between Luke and Aro, and put my hand out. Aro put his palm to mine as I sent him a vision.

Please, please don't do this. Let me speak his defence.

"I do love your courage young Renesmee, and your ability baffles me. Let me see... you once loved this boy, then you wished him dead for attempting the murder of your dearest love. Only now do you change your mind. I have never been in love, so I wouldn't know, but why you wish to save him I do not know." Aro would never let him off. Carlisle leapt up next to me. "Go on then girl, defend this murderer."

"He only did what all vampires do, except a slight few. He drank because he needed to feed, and so the girl died. No-one would have found her if she hadn't been moved. It is that person who should die." I had no idea who did it.

"May I see?" He asked. Why was he always so polite? Evil emperors made orders, not polite requests. I gave him my hand, and he closed his eyes. "It seems you have no idea who moved the body, and so I will consider your argument. Luke did kill the girl, and you have proof. Yet it is not his fault it was discovered. Yes I see your point. But you are humanitarian, and only eat animals. Why do you protect him?"

Carlisle didn't give me a chance to answer. "We don't like to see anyone die. You know that."

"Yes but there is something more." Aro pressed. He knew, he'd seen my thoughts, but he wanted me to say. I couldn't say, last of all now that Jacob had climbed up, phased, next to me on my other side. So, I put my palm to Aro's face and showed him.

"Let me show you." And he leant in and, gently, put his lips to mine.

"Please don't share that, it's private." I heard dad chuckle far off.

"We'll take him in, teach him to live like us." Carlisle offered. "Then you won't have to worry about any more deaths in this area." He had a good point.

"He'll try hard, I've seen it." Said a light, distant voice from just behind Aro. No-one had seen Alice creep up behind, she was the best at being silent after all.

"But will he succeed?" Caias was an impatient white blob in my eyes. Can't he just shut his mouth for a change?

"Eventually, yes." Alice replied and held out her hand. Aro took it and after a short while, stepped back and nodded.

"The volturi don't give second chances, but this is not a crime for the newborn, so it is his first. We shall be watching how this goes." And with that, they flicked their cloaks and disappeared.

"Oh God, thank God you're not dead..." I walked my arms around him and squeezed tightly. Then I thought the better of it and let go with a scowl. "I still hate you though."

"Sure." He said to himself with a cocked smile, and flashed back to the main house.
