trees, phasing in a wolf; I laid down and stared at her window from below, before my eyes gave out on me.


Chapter 7

Renesmee's point of view

I opened my eyes, it was dark outside. I was in the middle of the woods, nothing looked familiar to me. I looked around for someone, anyone, no one was there. How did I even get out here, I just remembered going to sleep in Jacob's arms, did he bring me out here? It was very cold, to cold for my own body. I curled my arms up, across my shoulder and chest. I looked down and realized I was barefoot. I slowly walked forward in, the dark creeping behind me. My body shivered to the darkness, it was eerie. I froze in my steps. A low growl came out of the darkness ahead. Is Jacob playing around with me, "Jacob this is not a joke," I hissed through my words. It was silent. Does he think this is funny, "Jake?" Another growl responded to the name, it wasn't a familiar noise.. A large figure slowly walked through the darkness, the eyes shinning back at me. It wasn't my Jake. The enormous wolf was a mixture of colors, his sharp teeth glaring at me like I did not deserve to live. This wolf was not part of the pack that I knew. I didn't move, my legs stayed in place, all I can think about was how my family would react to my death, what about Jake. The wolf made another bloodcurdling snarl. I twitched to his threat, I closed my eyes, Jakes face came into mind. I was not going to survive this, no possible way I could out run this wolf. On top of that, I had no clue where I would be running to. Please Jacob…I need you now. I continued to keep my eyes shut for the impact. All of sudden I heard the wolf make a howl and thunderous paws hitting the floor. The fur touched my skin and I swear I fell to the ground.

A jolt ran through my body and I jumped awake to panting breathing. I looked around, darting my eyes to every direction. I was in my bed, in my room. It was just a dream. I grabbed my white blanket closer to my face, still shaking uncontrollably. Ness get a grip of yourself it was just a nightmare…a very realistic nightmare. I twitched at the thought of it; I slowly sat up to get a better view of the room. A hand reached towards me, as fast as I could react, I jumped on my sheets in a crouching position against my wall. Hissing at whatever was approaching.

"Nessie, Ness! Are you ok?" Jacob came in the clearing of the darkness, eyes filled with concern. I slowly came out of my crouch and buckling down on to my bed. I put my hand up to my eyes and quietly whimpered to myself. Jake reached over and pulled me into his chest, "Your ok Ness, I'm right here." He continued to rub my back, southing me down. He sat down on the bed, sitting me on his lap; still cradled into his chest, rocking me back and forth. I felt safe. I knew Jacob would come to my rescue. I kept my face hiding in his chest. Jake didn't ask any questions but held me tight. I slowly closed my eyes again.

The light woke me up out of my spell. I tried to sit up but a heavy arm was wrapped around my body, not letting me have the slightest movement. I turned my face to Jacob lying on my bed. His arms were constraining me into his body, he must have stayed. Studying him, I ran my hands on his face. He was perfect. A warm smile came through and he opened his eyes slightly, dreading to interrupt this moment. He pulled me closer and gave me kisses on my forehead, "You scared me Ness." I looked down, embarrassed of the nightmare. I was so silly, it was just a dream. He pulled my chin up, "Will you show me?" I bit my lip, what would he think. He insisted again, "Please?" I paused for a moment, closing my eyes. I pulled my palm up to his cheek, flashing all the images of the dream, the feelings that ran through my body, the request…the begging of Jacob to save me. I felt him jerk to the image of me shutting my eyes to death, he pulled me closer. I pulled my hands away and dropped my head into his chest. Jake only tighten his grip, "I'm sorry… I will never let that happen again." I peeked up to his face, his eyes were filled with guilt, "Nessie, I will always be here for you." He moved in closer to my face. Staring into my eyes, he brought his hand up, stroking my face. I closed my eyes moving forward. I felt the heat of our breathing moving closer. Our lips touched. This time was different from the first kiss. It was soft, with emotions. He ran his hand to the back of my hair and his other on my back. I wanted more; I pushed against his chest, bringing my hands up to his neck. Before I can make another move, Jake pulled back and pushed me in front of him, arms distance. I looked at him confused, I put my hand up to his face, did I do something wrong? He nodded his head, "No Nessie…" Then why you stop? He looked away, "It's for the better." He got up from my bed and faced the window. I thought this is what he wanted. I thought he wanted me. I brought my knees up to my chest, curling into a ball. He looked over his shoulders. His face still looked filled with guilt from what I showed him. "Jake, it's not your fault. It was a silly dream." I felt at fault for his feelings. Of course Jacob cared about me maybe even more than that. I uncurled from the bed and walked over to him, embracing him from behind. Jake's height toppled over me; I was hardly up to his chest. We stayed clung, staring out the window, what seemed for hours.

Quick holiday vacation was over, back to school now. It was only with in time before the next holiday vacation would start for Christmas. Waiting patiently for this snow to hit the ground, it was making a late appearance in this season. I got up from bed getting ready for school. I felt comfortable enough to go alone, without Jakes escorting service. He understands, but it wouldn't stop him from watching over me whenever he was not at work, which I do not mind. I grabbed a pair of jeans, a warm sweater, and boots. Alice warned of us the weather that might approach today, snow. My family should be back in a week from their vacation to join us for the holiday, no longer a break for me. Not that I didn't love my family, they can just be difficult at times. Rosalie with the hate love relationship with Jacob, Emmet adult jokes, Alice full of personality, and Jasper. Well I guess Jasper doesn't do much of an annoyance. Clearing his throat, Edward knocked at my bedroom door, "Can I come in?" Please don't tell them what I think, come in. Edward chuckled at my request, "family maybe visiting us for the holidays. You remember the amazons?" Zafrina beautiful images ran through my mind. Yes I do. His face looked like he was holding back half the truth. AND? Edward cringed to answer me, finally, "Nuhel will join them as well." Great, what's the problem with that? I don't remember him much other than him saving our lives, my life. And he's like me. Edward turned around and faced outside the door, "Nothing Renesmee. You are going to be late for school," he turned around with his smile and walked back downstairs.

I waited till I was in my car, distances from my fathers hearing. Nahuel. I haven't seen him sense the day the Volturis came for me and my family. I shuddered to the thought of it. An image I prefer not to recall. I arrived at school and made my way in. The stares were something I was getting used to. Nahuel images were running through my mind all day, I wonder what he would look like now, hardly can recall his characteristics. He was another half breed, half vampire and human. Why did Edward hesitate to tell me the whole truth of who's visiting. With a blink of an eye, classes were over. I walked through the hall ways, leaving to the parking lot. A flyer caught my view. It was hung up on a wall right beside the exit door. It was a sign for volunteers to help the nearby reservation, Elijah. I haven't spoken to him since the day he dropped me off. It's only been a week. I was confused with the whole situation Jacobs's reaction scared me to continue the friendship without getting someone hurt. As I stared at the sign, a hand came up from behind, onto my shoulder. I flinched to the arm and moved away. "Sorry Renesmee…" I turned to see the face. What was my luck of bumping into the man on mind? Eli stood there in front of me, with a hand full of flyers. He looked down, in what seem to be a feeling of embarrassment, "I haven't heard from you since that…um was it the place? The waitress?" My eyes closed slightly, processing what he was saying. He looked up at me waiting for an answer. What I really wanted to say was 'I don't want be the cause of your death' but a different reply came out, "No Eli…I'm sorry, I just been busy with school again." I stared into his face, trying to convince him of the half truth. I managed to forget how perfect his features were. He had large brown eyes, with sensitivity and care in the background. A smile came across his face, he knew I was staring. I looked away, flushed with shame. I quickly replied, "I got to go…see you around." I walked away quickly around him. His eyes burned on my back, he must have been staring in disbelief of my get away. He didn't deserve me to treat him as such, he has been nothing but kind to me. Slowly, I turned to send him quick smile but he disappeared. "Hey, who you looking for?" My eyes opened to the voice, what's he doing here, did he just see what happened. I turned around and try to regain my usual face, "Jacob, I thought you were at work?" He walked up closer to me, bringing me into a hug, "got off early…Who were you looking for, maybe I can help?" I shook out of his hold, "No, no one. Thought I heard someone." I looked down at
