the long awaited day is finally here.
the graduation ceremony.
the seniors spend their morning trying on their clothes, last minute hairstyles and preparing speeches if they have.
the whole morning, before the ceremony, renesmee fiddles around with her pretty dress. unlike many of her peers, she has settled on a darker attire, she thinks it is more stylish, somehow classier.

at first, the ceremony is nothing too special. the students
receive their diplomes
and it's time for the speeches. shayla is the announcer.
after the speech
of the valedictorian, shayla steps in front again and announces: "and now it's time for our second speech. it has been prepared with lots of love and care from declan cartwright!" the crowd applauses, as declan steps in front of a microphone, sets it quickly and begins his long awaited speech.
the crowd listens to his stories about how he has met his friends and the beautiful renesmee. how if he hasn't gone to that school, nothing would have been the same. he is thankful to his family, his friends and of course renesmee. he is careful not to mention any names. if he slips up, the secret will be r e v e a l e d . and that's not what he wants. y e t .
it's a little sentence that surprises everyone, however.
"but i don't want her to be just my girlfriend."
gasps are heard from the crowd.
bella smiles in edward's ear, whispering how cute it will be if declan proposes to his girlfriend in front of everybody.
little do they know that his girlfriend is their daughter.
that is when declan finally turns to his only one. and with love and lust in his eyes, he gets on one knee, holding the ring he has been saving for so long.
"renesmee cullen, m a r r y m e."
bella, edward and jacob's jaws drop. the rest of the cullens are speechless. it feels like the times when they've been skeptical of bella and edward's budding romance.
how is it possible?
all the girls around renesmee are just as excited, as she is. tears from joy stream down her face, as she says yes.
if the cullens have had beating hearts, they would have had stroke right there and right now. their renesmee is getting married. straight after high school. and she is not marrying jacob. she has fallen in love with a human.
a story bound to repeat itself.
or not?
the whole crowd and the students are cheering, as declan and renesmee have just shared their first kiss as an engaged couple.
the ceremony finishes with natasha bedingfield's song "unwritten", which the whole class sings and dances to it, celebrating their pride and joy.
but after it, it is the most dramatic moment e v e r .
the cullens pull renesmee to themselves.
"what was that?"
"what the heck?"
" what do you think you're doing?"
she shrugs, smiling. she is too happy to let them get to her. she is grown-up. nothing can tell her what to do a n y m o r e .
and when jacob demands for an explanation for her immoral cheating, she flatly says:
"i hate you, jacob."

"i've never l o v e d you."
a limp forms in jacob's throat. with what has he deserved this? hasn't he been good enough for her? hasn't the imprint been enough?

he doesn't know that this is n o t what she wants from life. she wants n o r m a l i t y. she is happy with someone else
and that is what hurts him the most.
tears from devastation threaten to fall from jacob's eyes. but before they can, he runs away in the woods, perhaps to la push, his home, so he can tell his friends and his dad about his broken heart.
a heart, broken by a m a t i v e g i r l s .
