A Twilight fanfiction novel - SheeWolf85

She stared into his eyes for a moment, not sure how to respond. He was basing his hope on
variables and unknowns, and she wasn’t sure she could do the same thing. She could believe that
her father would at least give it a shot. She gave Jacob a small smile and nodded.
“Yes, he could try.”
Jacob pulled her back down for a kiss. “That’s good.”
She settled back down on his chest and kissed his neck. He held her tighter and closed his eyes to
savor the few moments of peace he had left before they had to get up.

Renesmee stared at the phone and took a deep breath to try to calm down. She knew this would
have to come eventually. She typed a message back to her mother and sighed when she put the
phone back down. Jacob was gone on pack business, so she couldn’t tell him the news yet.
Her parents had just gotten checked in to the airport in Rome. They’d be back in Washington the
next day. She shivered and laid down on the bed to wait for Jacob.
They had a plan. She would wear her sunglasses and wait at Alice and Jasper’s house while Jasper
went to get Bella and Edward. When they returned, she would try to get through greetings and
introductions without raising suspicion, then when things had settled, she’d break the news. She
wasn’t sure how it was going to go over. She was confident that her mother would at least hear her
out. Her father, on the other hand . . . It was him she was mostly worried about. She’d hidden
herself from him for so long in fear of disappointing him. He wasn’t mean or controlling, but he could
be overbearing. Renesmee just didn’t want to be the cause of any arguments. She had a feeling he
wasn’t going to accept what she was. At least not up front.
She told Jacob about her fear when he got home. He held her and promised her dad would love her
no matter what. He’d make sure of it.
The next day, they got up early to hunt and get ready for the big day. Renesmee felt like time was
frozen yet moving so much faster than usual at the same time. They finally made it out to the car and
got in. She took a few deep breaths and looked over at Jacob in the driver’s seat. He smiled and
took her hand to kiss her knuckles.
“Remember, Ness, our deal still stands. You’re an amazing, kick-ass woman.”
She couldn’t help but smile back. “Thank you, Jake.”
As he drove, she let her thoughts wander. She couldn’t contain them. She squeezed his hand and
sighed as she looked out the window.
“What are you thinking?” he asked. He knew it had something to do with her parents.
She glanced back at him. “Aunt Alice and Uncle Jasper knew. My parents don’t. They think I’m still
cute and innocent. What would you do if you left for three months and came back to find out your
daughter was slaughtering deer with her bare hands and sucking their blood?”
