I growled in frustration "But what about Nessie? I need to protect her!"

Chapter 10: New Beginning

Jacob

It was way past midnight when the phone rang. I had been asleep in my room with my long legs handing off the edge. I got up grumpily and swore. Who the hell was calling at this hour?

I went into the dark living room- not that it was dark for me- and picked up the phone.

"Hello?" I mumbled in a sleepy voice and cleared my throat.

"Jake?" it was Bella. She sounded very worried.

I became alert instantly "Bella? What happened?"

"Oh Jake, you know when Edward was taking Renesmee to the cottage he came across Alistair, you remember him? He was the grumpy vampire who-"

"Yeah, I remember him." I interrupted. My heart was beating very fast. If something happened to Nessie…

"Yeah, well Edward ran into him and he asked us all to join the Volturi but Edward refused. Alistair went away but Edward thinks that he can come back to attack us so we are leaving Forks. Now."

I almost dropped the phone "What? You guys are leaving Forks because of that nerd of a vampire? Bella, we can track him down and-"

She interrupted me "No Jake we are not afraid of one vampire. Moreover, he cannot be tracked. He has a gift that enables him to hide from us. But don't you understand? He has joined the Volturi! He could easily come back for us with backup."

I considered that. She had a point. "Bella, I am coming with you guys right now." Nessie's face was all that I could focus on right now.

"NO Jake you stay where you are. We need to protect Charlie. Our scent is all over his place. Please Jacob, try to understand."

I growled in frustration "But what about Nessie? I need to protect her!"

Bella spoke in a cold voice "Jake we are her parents. And we are perfectly competent in taking care of our daughter."

I felt embarrassed " Yeah..sorry…..but Bella…how will I survive here not knowing about how Nessie is? How you are?"

This time she spoke in a soft comforting voice "Jake, I understand how you are feeling right now. Don't worry I will keep calling you."

I sighed "Sure, sure."

"And I just need you to do one more thing. Protect Charlie. Please"

I nodded even though she couldn't see me "Yeah will do. I am just gonna phase right after I hang up."

Bella almost sounded like she was crying "Love you Jake, bye"

I hung up and sat down on the sofa to think. My Nessie was in danger. And here I was in Forks roaming around like a fool. I felt useless, not being there to protect her.

I jumped off the couch and ran outside. This time I was so irritated that I didn't even bother taking off my clothes before phasing. I phased and ran directly into the woods.

New Orleans

Renesmee was long asleep in my lap when Edward parked in front of a huge white mansion. It was even bigger than the house in forks and more beautiful. It had two carved white pillars on either side with a triangular dome. All other cars were already parked behind the house in the garage. Edward got out and flitted to my side and opened the door. I got out carefully and took Renesmee inside with Edward.

When I got into the house, it all felt very familiar. Maybe it was because it had the same pale on pale color scheme preferred by Esme. The floor was a soft caramel colored wood and the walls had Oak paneling with mahogany edges. The upper walls were creamy white and peach. It all felt very comforting and homely.

Jasper and Emmett were busy demolishing the back wall that faced towards the forest and Esme was guiding them. I shot a questioning look at Edward and he whispered in my ear "Esme wants the whole back wall to be of glass."

I nodded just as Renesmee woke up. The sound had woken her up. She rubbed her eyes and glanced around surprised. "Momma, why are we back at our house? I thought we were…." she trailed off confused.

Edward chuckled "No Nessie we left Forks. We are in New Orleans. This is our new home."

Nessie smiled "It looks very familiar" Then she frowned and placed her hand on my cheek and showed me images of Jacob. She was asking When will my Jacob come momma? I miss him.

I glanced at Edward for a brief second and replied "Soon sweetheart…now let's get you tucked in."

I took her upstairs and finally found a room that was fully made up. It was definitely Alice's room because it had her preferred color theme- pink and white.

I put Renesmee in the soft bed and covered her up with a quilt and kissed her forehead "Goodnight sweetheart, sweet dreams."

I came down and to lighten Edward's mood I spoke enthusiastically "So what's my job?"

He chuckled "We will just sit around until Esme or Alice orders us around. That department is theirs, handing out jobs."

I watched Rosalie and Alice argue on which curtains would look best on the side walls for an hour. Finally Esme turned to us "Dear, do you mind bringing the furniture in when the truck arrives…?"

She turned to Alice for conformation and she replied "13 minutes, 34 seconds."

Edward and I nodded "Sure, Esme. We will wait outside." I said.

We went outside and sat down on the porch steps. The place was really beautiful and sufficiently isolated from the main town for our benefit. There was a forest on the backside of the house, just like it had been in Forks. At a distance, I could hear water flowing and the occasional ripple as fishes jumped and poked their heads out of the stream.

It was just beginning to get lighter as dawn broke through the sky. I held Edward's hand and sighed. The sunrise was beautiful. First the sky became red, then orange and then a beautiful golden hue set over the eastern part of the sky. The sunrise signified a new start, a new beginning. My perfect universe.
