Renesmee P.O.V

These couple of days have been good. Kyle and I were good friends now. He was my only close guy friend, other than Jake. I could talk to him about anything. He's so friendly and just such a good person in all. I'm really glad I met him. Stevan, which is Kyle's bestfriend, is cool too. Immature at times, but good.

Samantha, Crystal, Kyle, Stevan and I have been hanging out more and we've become a group ever since Alexis moved to another town. Jake and I have been a bit distant lately, it's a bit strange. He's been so caught up in school work and I've been about and about with my friends. The only time we talk and see one another is at home.I wanted to change that. I missed Jake and I just wanted to spend time with him again. I want us to be closer and together more. I want the old Jake and Nessie.. Sighing loudly, I stopped writing and tucked my purple tiny journal along with my pen away into my nightstand. I wrote all my thoughts and feelings in there.

I quickly scanned my too neat of a closet for a casual school outfit. I didn't feel the need to be dressy or anything.. After all, it was just school. I didn't need to be like one of those girls who covered up their face in pounds of makeup just to be pretty or those girls who had to look fashionable and the best everyday..

Today was Friday. The end of another calm school week. I was going to talk to my Jake today. I pulled up my faded blue skinny jeans and threw on a pink, blue and white/tan long sweater.

Quickly after wrapping my infinity scarf around my neck, I brushed out my now redish-brownish hair, that was now about 4 inches past my shoulder. Before it was almost near my butt and I got tired of it. I made Alice cut it just last week. I had to beg her and my mom so much before they both finally gave in, thanks to my dad. Alice had a fit, but I wanted a new look. I don't know.. (PIC OF RENESMEE'S HAIR ON THE SIDE. RENESMEE IS PLAYED BY LILY COLLINS)

Since my hair was now out and tangle-free, I carefully placed my tan beanie on my head (Kyle got me into these) and slipped on my pair of short converse.

"Mom?", I called out rushing down the long staircase. I missed a step and almost tumbled to the ground, when I was caught by a pair of warm muscular arms.

"Ness, careful", Jake placed me gently back on my feet. I looked up at him.

"Thanks", I flushed slightly.

"You got a haircut? You look different Ness", Jake looked at me carefully. I sat on the step. "Yeah, I got a haircut last week...You would have known if you actually spent time with me", I mumbled at the end.

"What?", he furrowed his eyebrows together giving me a lost and confused look. I sighed. "Nothing. Uh, did you want to hang out later after school? Just you and I? I feel like we haven't spent time together in the longest time..".

He looked straight down at his feet. Jake stayed perfectly still for a few seconds then finally looked back into my eyes. Does he not want to be with me?

"Ness, I would love to, you know that but Cassidy and I are going to the library to work on our project".

I felt crushed. He was choosing her over me. What if he was secretly seeing her behind my back?.. No, my dad would have read into his thoughts. Maybe I'm just overreacting. "Oh, that's okay. Well, we better get going then or we'll be late", I tried changing the sad topic. We both stood up to walk to the door.

I went ahead of him when I felt my wrist being grabbed. I spun around swiftly and ended up in Jacob's arms. As if he somehow read my thoughts he hugged me tight and kissed my lips ever so gently. I loved it. I felt like we had become one again. I leaned into him more and tangled my fingers in his hair, deepening the kiss. His hands travelled to my waist, pushing me even closer to him. Too soon we both broke the heated kiss, needing air.
