“So he’s hoping she’ll accept it if she hears it first then he tells her it’s all true?”<br />

Quil shrugged. “I guess.”<br />

“I hope it works. She’s nice.”<br />

He bent and rubbed his nose against hers. “Not as nice as you.”<br />

She rolled her eyes with a smile. “You’re too sweet.”<br />

Jacob showed Renesmee around the beach and introduced her to Seth and Embry. Embry was<br />

wearing a white wife beater, and she noticed he had the same kind of tattoo that Jacob did. The<br />

other two were wearing t-shirts like Jacob, and she couldn’t tell if they did. It wouldn’t have surprised<br />

her if they did. She met Harry and Sue Clearwater, Seth’s parents, and was again surprised when<br />

neither was as warm as their son. Everyone she met was nice, but she was still amazed by how<br />

much Jacob and his friends looked alike. Even Seth—as small as he was comparatively, and with his<br />

light brown eyes—could have passed as a brother to Jacob. After she met a few more people, she<br />

began to realize what it was. It wasn’t just the heat they all shared; it was in their eyes and the way<br />

they held themselves. None of them could affect her the way Jacob did, but they still seemed as<br />

naturally powerful.<br />

After the introductions had been made, Jacob left her on the beach to help Sue and Quil get a few<br />

more things. She crossed her arms over her chest, already cold, as she sat in the sand and watched<br />

the sun setting over the waves. She had felt out of place before, but now she really wondered why<br />

Jacob loved her. The other women there were dark-skinned like he was and so much more beautiful<br />

than she thought she could ever hope to be.<br />

“Pretty, isn’t it?” Embry said as he sat next to her.<br />

She looked up and smiled as much as she could. She wasn’t sure what to think of Embry. He was<br />

nice, but just in the time she’d been there she’d seen him drink four beers. He didn’t seem even<br />

slightly tipsy, but she wasn’t sure if she could trust what she saw. He pushed his chin-length, black<br />

hair behind his ears and pulled the cap off yet another bottle. She was amazed at how easy it<br />

seemed for him. She had to have a towel or a bottle opener to get into the soda bottles her dad<br />

sometimes bought.<br />

Embry saw her staring at his bottle and offered it to her. “Want one?”<br />

She shook her head. “No, thank you. I’m not twenty-one yet.”<br />

“Me neither.” He chuckled to himself and leaned back on his elbows. The fact that he was<br />

perpetually sixteen was hilarious to him. It was only funnier when he thought about Seth being<br />

forever twelve.<br />

Renesmee furrowed her brow. “Jacob told me you were twenty-six.”<br />

Embry took a drink. “Yeah, well, Jacob’s not considering my inner child.”<br />

She smiled, and her eyes trailed down his body stretched out before her. He was nice-looking, but<br />

she found herself comparing him to Jacob. Embry wasn’t as tall or as impressive. She realized when<br />
