A Twilight fanfiction novel - SheeWolf85

“How are things between you and that Jacob guy?” Bella asked. “By the way, I’m putting you on
speaker now since your dad has asked me a hundred times what you’ve said.”
Renesmee felt her cheeks burn, but she pushed aside her embarrassment. Her attachment to Jacob
was one thing she felt secure preparing her parents for. She glanced up at him as she answered.
“We’re doing really great. He’s so amazing putting up with all of my crap.”
Jacob chuckled and kissed the top of her head. He knew she meant so much more than her mother
could comprehend.
“Is that him?” Bella asked. She’d heard him laugh.
“Yeah, he’s here with me.”
“Hi, Jacob,” Bella said loudly. Renesmee pulled the phone away from her ear. “Edward, say hi.” He
did, but it didn’t sound as welcoming as Bella had.
Jacob smirked. “Hey,” he said.
“Are you two keeping out of trouble?” Bella asked.
“They damn well better be,” Edward said.
Renesmee swallowed, and Jacob just laughed again. “We’re doing our best,” he offered.
“We could come home tomorrow,” Edward said. “If you need us to, Renesmee, we’ll be there
tomorrow.”
“No, Dad, we’re okay, really. You and mom need to enjoy the rest of your time in Italy.”
Bella snickered. “See, I told you. She’s fine.”
Edward grumbled again.
“So how are Alice and Jasper doing?” Bella asked, changing the subject. “I haven’t talked to them
since the last time I talked to you. Last I heard, though, Alice was trying to hire someone else. Do
you know if she did?”
Renesmee was grateful for the change in conversation. “Yeah, she hired someone a few days ago. I
guess they’re working out okay so far.”
“That’s good. I’ll call them a little later.”
“Tell me more about Italy,” Renesmee said, not sure if she wanted to end the call soon or talk
forever.
“It’s so wonderful!” Bella started talking animatedly about the places she and Edward had seen and
the things they had done.
