Two Weeks Later

4:55 AM

Ren POV

Cottage

It had been a good two weeks; we had made more arrests. Sometimes, it shocked me how Agatha, Arthur and Dash. Could see so many murders taken place. It most have hurt, them all to look in on the future and see that almost all of the time. Made me sad, that their parents were drug addict. Guess, that was a good sign. Still couldn't get over, how hurt everyone was about. What the bad leader said to Fletcher. John died, had hurt everyone in ways. No, one could understand, that more then me. Uncle Jasper, he is an empath really wanted to help them. Still had no clue, how to help them. But, maybe just quietly approving support to them all.

"Honey! You, better get a move on." My father tells me.

"Ok, dad I'm getting dress right now. Using my vampire speed. Had my clothes on in a hurry. Then uses my speed to get me over to the main house. Alice and Rosalie, had me in Alice bedroom. A chair, was wasn't too bad. Rosalie, did my hair and Alice, did a little bit of makeup. " Thank you. Both." Take off for downstairs, to the kitchen island. Grandma, had my breakfast ready for me. Pancakes and bacon. I ate every bit on my plate. Emmett and Jasper, were going to drive me today.

Jasper drove the jeep, while Emmett was just hanging out. Could feel Jasper eyes, on me. "Alright, there Sweet Pea. You're emotions are different a lot lately."

"I'm just confused, about everything." Tell him.

"What has you confused?" He asked curious.

"Everything, has been making me questioning myself, a lot lately." Confess to Jasper.

"Can see that, I've been feeling a lot different emotions coming off you. There pain, confusion, loss, despair, guilt and anger. That's a lot of feelings. Coming from one person." He looks at me.

"Uncle Jasper?! Can I ask you a question." My hands are gripping my backpack tightly.

"Of course. What's your question?" He looked right at me.

"Is mating bond different for everyone?" I lookout the window, looking at the forest.

"Depends on the person, is I guess. But, it was different for all of us." He is still driving, under normal speed.

"How did my Dad? Feel about me and Jacob being together?" Biting my bottom lip.

"He wasn't too thrilled about it. Especially, after he was going to kill you. Jacob, was going to end you because of you killing your mom." Could cry all over again.

"Tell me something, Uncle Jasper. If Jacob had never imprint on me. He would still carry a torch for my mother wouldn't he?" Jasper was hesitant, he wasn't sure. "Uncle Jasper, please just tell me. The truth, don't lie to me."

"He would always carry a torch for your mother. Weather, he imprinted on you or not." Told me, truthful.

"Thanks, Uncle Jasper. At least, your honest." Wasn't going to cry, over Jacob every again.

"Ren?! What's the real reason, you wanted to talk to me." Realizing, that shouldn't keep stalling anymore.

Taking a deep breath, "it's about Fletcher?"

"What about him, is there more to it."

"When I'm around him; he's warm and when he gets closer to me. Feel the extreme heat, coming off of him. It doesn't feel, uncomfortable at all. It much more, then that." Finally told him.

"That is different, are you sure."

"Yes! I'm completely sure. We run into each other. Fell backwards, he grabbed me. It much more, different with Jacob too." I lookout at the window.

"How different, did you feel about Jacob?" He asked me.

"Never realized it before, but after so many years. Guess there was signs, but I wasn't paying attention at the time. Too caught up, everything around me."

"Everyone, makes mistakes Ren. You're mom and dad made a lot of mistakes. Some not so good." Had a feeling, their was more then he was telling me. Could have something, to do with Jacob or is there any reason behind it.

"When I was around Jacob, could smell wet dog on him. He always trying to pull away from me." That's when it first began, the awful night before the betrayal. I really had, been blind the whole time. "He really was going leave, no matter what. Those that mean, he never imprint on me. Oh, god feel stupid, the whole time." Really wanted to hit something, but couldn't really. Felt the burning pain in my heart; I was totally stupid. If, only I hadn't been so blind.

"Ren?!" He pulled the car, over very fast. He grabbed me and gripped me even tighter around the waist. I was extremely worried, that I would ruin my makeup. So, shouldn't ruin my aunts hard work. "Please, don't beat yourself up. Everyone, was just happy for you. We thought, he would protect you forever, keep you safe and love you."

"No! I know, that the signs were all there. Just don't listen to my heart." Emmett had grabbed me and hug me even tighter. "I wish, he had told me the truth." Why, this everything keep going back and forth. Was everything just hitting me even harder then before. It was like waking up from a long nap. Maybe, if paid better attention to everything. Could have foreseen everything before it hurt very badly. Both men, held me tightly in an embraced.

After A Little While

We got back on the road; had to be careful not have anyone worry about me. But, sometimes it's good to let everyone have your back. Perhaps I should be more grateful, the more people stand up for you the better. "You, two are totally best uncle's in the world."

Once they dropped me off at work. Walked inside, saw that Fletcher was there again early too.
