Bite Me: Renesmee [2] Oh, Jacob

WHAM!

My head flew right into the back of my mom's seat waking me from my slumber. I growled. I wasn't remotely injured – it was just very rude.

"Edward!" Mom shouted.

"You said wake her up," he replied.

"Do you have to be irritating all of the time?" I asked.

"I believe I do," he said. I rolled my eyes. "But get up. We're here."

I looked out the window and realized we weren't back at our old house but we were at LaPush.

I squealed, but I didn't mean to. Edward and Bella both laughed.

"Mom-."

"His idea," she immediately.

"Really?" I asked. "How out of character for you, father. You surprise me."

"Sure, sure," he said mockingly. I leaned up and kissed his cheek.

"Be nice," I said.

I opened the door and got out of the car.

"You guys comin?" I asked.

"No. Just hurry up. We didn't tell him we were coming back. We decided to let him be surprised," Bella said. "I'll come back and visit him later."

I looked over to Edward.

"Are you serious?" he asked.

"No, but you know that," I said. He rolled his eyes. "I can be irritating too."

"Like father, like daughter," Bella said. Edward looked over to her and she smiled.

"I'll be back," I said. I closed the door and started towards Jacob's house.

When I was about halfway there I could smell her.

Leah.

"Well, what brings you here?" she asked coming up beside me.

"I can show you," I said reaching my hand outward her. She moved away. I shrugged. "Well then I guess you know very well why I'm here. Is he home?"

"Yes," she replied.

"Good. Then you'll go away and stop slowing me down," I said. Leah glared at me and I gave her a wink.

She stopped and I continued to walk.

I reached the front door and went to knock but the door opened. He was right on the other side. I smiled at him.

"What the hell are you doin' here?" he cheered as he brought me into a hug, lifting me off the ground.

He put me back down on the ground and placed my hand on the side of my face and thought back to the conversation I'd had just a few days ago with my parents.

I brought back down from his face.

"School?" he asked.

"Probably my dad's idea. I don't think my mom would want me to suffer high school," I said.

"Yeah, she has horror stories," Jacob said.

"She told me you and dad almost got into a fight at school this one time," I said.

"Yeah. . . I would've totally kicked his ass," Jacob said.

"And he's gonna know you said that," I said tapping my head. "You're an idiot."

"Duh," he said. I rolled my eyes. "So when do you start school?"

"Tomorrow," I said. "I get to drive the old Volvo until my dad buys me a new car."

"Or I could pick you up," Jacob said. "Give you a lift home from school."

"Is that an act of kindness or an attempt to spy on me?" I asked.

"You know what those high school kids are like," he said.

"Well from what I've learned watching reruns of Degrassi, ever other boy will be gay, half the girls will be skanks, the other half will be vegetarians, bookworms, and born again Christians. An epidemic of STDs will break out often and people will be horribly crippled or get cancer all the time," I said.

"Half the girls being skanks, yes. STD epidemics, only if you hang out with the girls who are skanks and the boys who have been with them. The rest of that is horribly exaggerated," he said. "Besides the only thing you have to worry about at your school is vampires and werewolves."

"Ha. . . Ha. . . You're so funny," I said. "Look, I have to go before my dad comes to investigate what's taking me so long."

"I'm telling you, Nessie, I could take him," he said.

"Oh, Jake," I placing my hand gently on his shoulder. "I'll see you tomorrow."

As took my hand away he grabbed it and held it up to my face.

"No, bracelet," he said.

"Oh, I still have it," I said. I reached into my hair and pulled it out it's ponytail and showed him. "Clever, huh?"

"I guess," he said.

"It's my favorite accessory you know. I wear it, whether it matches or not," I said.

"It's that special to you?" he asked.

"Well you gave it to me and you're like my favorite person in the world, you know, after Esme," I said.

"I'm second banana's to Esme?" he asked, pretending to be hurt.

"Well Esme would just be happy to be on my list," I said. "She's nicer than you."

"I'll have to work on that," Jacob said.

I smiled. "Three o'clock. Don't be late. I'll see you later."

I started away from the house.

"Hey, Nessie," he said. I turned back to him

"What?" I asked.

"I'm gonna have to race you sometime," he said.
