RENESMEE

I flinched and took a step away from her. My eyes moving from Jacob to my mom back to Jacob.

"You have got to be kidding me!" I screamed. My dad, Eddie and Chloe appeared in the room.

"Seriously?" I asked, my head spinning, the information wasn't processing. They had… kissed? Full on lips to lips kissed? My mother... and Jacob... had kissed?

"Nessie…" Jacob said taking a step towards me.

"No no no no," I said moving away from him, I saw his face twist in pain as I moved away.

"You two…" I said pointing to them. "But I'm her daughter!" I shouted at Jacob. "I mean, no one falls in love with their ex's daughter. That's sick," I said.

"Nessie you don't understand. Please let me explain," Jacob said. I shook my head.

"Let me guess, it's the imprint thing?" I asked. Jacobs face twisted again as if I was right.

"So if you hadn't imprinted on me you would still be in love with her?" I asked pointing at my mom, my voice rising. The way I said the word imprinted made it sound dirty.

"Ness… listen-," My mom began. I shook my head violently.

"No, no," I said stopping her from speaking. I didn't know if I wanted the answer or not yet. Was Jacob's love for me a lie? My head just couldn't process everything. Seeing my mom and Jacob together. That dream. The times he teased her, the times he hugged her. I thought they were just best friends that had grew up together, that's why they were so close now but I saw a double meaning to everything. Were they in love? No I knew that wasn't true. My mom loved my dad, there couldn't be anything between them. But did there used to be? I turned to my dad, begging for answers. He looked at me pitifully. I looked over to Chloe and Eddie standing at the door, they looked sympathetic too. Then I remembered all the things Eddie had said as he teased my mom about her friendship with Jacob.

"Did you two know?" I asked, my voice rising. Eddie nodded. I took in a sharp breath. They had betrayed me, two people I counted on, and the two people who were my best friends.

"They were sworn to secrecy Renesmee, they left it to us to tell you," my dad said.

"So it must have happened before you got with mom, right? I mean she wouldn't cheat on you," I asked. My dad's face twisted.

"Holy shit!" I said putting my hands on my head.

"Renesmee…" my mom said.

"I don't give a crap about my language. I just found out the man I love more than anything in this entire world, the one I would die for, dated my mother. My mother!" I screamed at her, she flinched backwards. I could see Jacob smile a little as I described my feelings for him, I scowled a little. It wasn't time for that at the moment. My dad stepped closer to me.

"Jacob befriended your mother again when I left her. You remember I told you I disappeared for six months?" he asked. I nodded weakly. "I left her broken, wounded. Jacob healed her, and left his mark on her. When I came back your mom was… confused; if that's the right word. She had feelings for him, nothing more. She chose me but before she chose she and Jacob... kissed. But Jacob left for a while. Your mom and I got married, she became pregnant with you and Jacob came back. Then when you were born… well you know the rest. He imprinted on you. The feelings he had for Bella were because you were part of her. They disappeared as soon as you were born. You think I'd let him be here so often if he was in love with my wife?"

I shook my head.

"Just once?" I asked them. "And you weren't actually together? You were just confused?"

They nodded.

"It was twice but we weren't together," Jacob said.

"Twice?" I asked.

"First one doesn't count. It wasn't really a kiss," my mom said.

"No it was a punch in the face. That didn't hurt me, just broke your hand," Jacob said smiling at my mom. My mom smiled back.

"Yeah well, you were a pushy bastard."

"Okay enough of memory lane! I understand it now but I don't want to hear about it, and I don't want to see you smiling at memories of kissing each other," I said. My voice was slightly acidic but I didn't care.

"Sorry," my mom said and Jacob straight after. I turned to my dad.

Thank you. I don't think I could have let Jacob or mom talk long enough to explain. Thank you. He nodded and smiled

"I'm going to go my room. I want to be alone for a while okay?" I asked everyone. They all nodded and I walked out of the room. I walked up the stairs into my room; I locked the door and collapsed onto my bed. I felt like crying but I couldn't. I couldn't get the tears out.

As I lay there and worked it out in my head, the only thing that I wanted was Jacob. I hated that I had this need for him. There was no way, even if I wanted it, that I could cut him off from my life, and to do that just because of something he did in his past was wrong. I wanted to see him now; I wanted his arms around me. I needed to forget about him holding my mom like he holds me. That was the past. This is now. I was still pretty mad though, thinking about how long they had kept this from me. I thought the hardest thing to hear was about the imprint and to know that without that we probably wouldn't be how we are now but I was wrong. THIS was the hardest thing to hear. I had never imagined my mom with anyone else other than my dad. What would have happened if my dad never came back to her? Would Jacob and my mom be married with their own kids by now?

There was a soft knock on my door.

"Come in," I choked out and sat up in my bed. Jacob opened the door.

"Your dad said it was okay for me to come up now," he said, his face was sad. I nodded. Seeing him upset made me feel guilty, I wanted to comfort him more than anything.

"I'm sorry I overreacted," I said as he closed the door.

"No, I'm sorry Ness. If I knew back then, I swear to you I never would have done it," he said. The sincerity in that statement made my heart swell. Jacob did love me, he didn't love my mom. He just made a mistake; like I made with Liam. I sat up better on my bed so I was cross legged. I reached my hand out towards him. His face lit up and smiled as he walked over to me. He sat down on the edge of the bed. I crawled over to him and took my place on his lap. He wrapped his arms securely around me; I smiled in his shoulder and placed a kiss on his collar bone.

"I love you so much," he whispered into my hair.

"I love you too," I replied. He pulled back and I looked up at him. My eyes flickered down to his lips as he brought them to mine. The kiss wasn't forcefully or passionate. It was gentle and sweet and it melted my heart, it was weird though. I'd have to get used to it. His face twisted as he pulled away, as if he didn't want to be so far from me.

Daddy please, please let him stay with me. I pleaded in my head. I wasn't expecting an answer. I just didn't want him to come into my room and tell Jacob to get out.

I pulled myself off from Jacob and climbed back into my bed. He frowned at me and squeezed my hand longingly. I tugged on him, trying to get him to come over to me.

"Ness I'm not allowed." He whispered. I pouted.

"Please," I whispered and as if that's all he needed to hear he took his jacket off so he was just in his jeans and t shirt and climbed under the covers with me. He wrapped his arm around my back and I placed my head on his chest. Resting my arm across his stomach, I ran my fingers along his chest, marking out where his abs were.

And for the first time in my entire life, I slept peacefully, dream free in my bed, in Jacob's arms.
