Chapter Nine

Renesmee Cullen

"This can't be happening," I mumbled,"This just can't be happening!" My voice raised as I said so. It's not like everybody didn't hear the mumbling. Alice gave me her best puppy eyes.

"Please, Nessie?" she said," Pretty please?" she pouted and Jasper rolled his eyes, still silent. I sighed, giving up.

"Fine," I said,"Just get me the things here 'cause I really don't want to get up," I said, referring to my huge stomach; it had been half a month since we found out. She nodded understandingly and went, in a flash of an eye to get me the clothes she wanted me to try on. Momma kept playing with my curls.

"You miss him a lot, don't you?" she said. I sighed.

"Yeah," I said,"I don't see him a lot. That's why I hated the idea of him working in the first place," I continued.

"Normal people work," Jazz commented. I grimaced.

"I know," I said, already feeling tears in my eyes that disappeared quickly. Thanks to Jasper. I was getting on his nerves, I knew, but he was always there.

"Try these-" she pointed to a pink bag," and those-" a blue bag,"then tell me what you think!" she said and I smiled before I turned to try them on.

Jacob Black

I couldn't believe this. I screwed it all up; I couldn't do what I promised to. I couldn't be there for My Ness as much as I told her I would. This just sucked.

I missed talking to her. I missed waking her up in the morning. I missed going to the beach with her. I missed a lot of things.

I couldn't even spend Valentine's Day with her, which was today.

Yes, I screwed things up. But not anymore.

"I'm going," I announced. Embry looked at me from under the Mustang he was working on.

"Going?" he repeated," Did you just find out that you need to go home, Jake?"

"No, I found out about that yesterday."

Flashback

I got back from patrolling at 1am, expecting to find Nessie home and in bed as usual but I didn't find her there. I freaked out; where could she be?

I found a note beside the bed.

'I'm at the mansion. Don't worry; I didn't go alone. Call me whenever you're home. ~Renesmee.'

I felt my heart sink to my knees at those words. I could feel how mad she was at me for not being there for her. And I deserved it, every bit of it. I couldn't just call her so I ran my way there.

I bumped into the house without knocking; it's not like they'd be surprised. I found her on the couch of the living room, her head rested on Edward's shoulder, sleeping. I could see the dry tears on her cheeks and I wondered for the briefest second if it was because of me, and it hurt to just wonder, let alone hearing Edward confirm it...

"She has some of her clothes upstairs," he said,"I'm quite sure the crying part was merely her hormones but she really does miss you," he breathed, careful not to wake the sleeping beauty on his shoulder. Emmett came into view then.

"You'd better save your butt before she gets really mad," he advised. I sighed.

This was going to be hard. She never got mad at me. Ever.

Not even when I kissed her on her last birthday.

End Flashback

"Hey, Morgan!" I called. She came quickly.
