Jacob and Renesmee were sitting in the meadow, watching the sun set over the mountains. Renesmee had her head on Jacob's shoulder, and Jacob had his arm around her.

"Jacob," Renesmee said softly. "I don't want to leave you."

"I don't want you to leave either," Jacob said. "But you have to go. It's not safe for you here anymore."

"I know," Renesmee said. "But I don't want to go."

Jacob took her hand and looked into her eyes. "I love you," he said. "And I will always love you. No matter where you are, or what you're doing, I will always love you."

Renesmee's eyes filled with tears. "I love you too," she said.

They sat in silence for a few moments, watching the sun dip below the horizon. Then Jacob leaned down and kissed Renesmee gently on the lips.

"I'll never forget you," he whispered.

"I'll never forget you either," Renesmee replied.

They sat there, wrapped in each other's arms, watching the stars come out one by one. They knew that their future was uncertain, but they also knew that they would face it together, no matter what.
