Can't Stand To See You Cry (Jacob)

Chapter 15

Jacob didn't arrive back home until after 10. He was so far behind on repairs from spending most of the day with Renesmee. And since he planned on spending most of tomorrow with her too, he wanted to get as far ahead as he could.

He knew that he would have to keep busy in order to make enough money to pay for Ava to make her home visits. They had agreed on four days a week and Billy was thrilled. Jacob had hoped that Quil and Embry would keep coming by to help out in the garage because even though they liked joking around, they always seemed to get a lot accomplished together.

Jacob was towel drying his hair after a long hot shower when he heard his phone ring. He smiled when he saw who was calling. "Hey you," he answered softly. "Everything okay?"

Renesmee sighed at the sound of Jacob's voice. "Thank God you're okay."

"Of course I am. Why wouldn't I be?" he quizzed as he wrapped his towel around his lower half and laid back on his bed.

"I just wondered because my dad seemed really mad when you guys left. Was is just awful?"

"It was...uncomfortable," he replied, laughing weakly. "But I expected much worse."

"Well if it was half as bad as the talk I had with my mom, then I feel sorry for you," she groaned as shut her door and flopped back on her bed.

"Oh no," Jacob replied, smiling. "I hate to even ask..."

"It was the worst," she grumbled. "It was the sex talk. Like, we didn't already have that a few years ago. But this was the updated "Jacob" version and I hated every minute of it."

"Really? Geez they both must think I'm some sort of sex fiend."

Renesmee squeezed her eyes tightly. "I can't even imagine you and my dad talking about us having sex," she cringed.

Jacob rubbed his chin and nodded. "Yeah...he asked me if I planned on having sex with you."

"Oh my God," Renesmee exclaimed with dread. "Please tell me he didn't ask you to wait until we were married?"

"Yup, he did. He told me not to take advantage of you, since you're young and inexperienced."

"Oh...I'm gonna die! I can't believe he said that. How embarrassing!"

Jacob just laughed. "I wasn't surprised that he wanted us to wait, but..."

"You didn't promise him we would wait, did you?"

"Of course I did," Jacob fibbed. "I said we'd wait until we were married."

"Jacob Black! How could you?!"

Jacob couldn't contain his laughter any longer. "You are so easy to tease, Nessie!"

Renesmee scowled even though he couldn't see her. "You're lucky I'm not there right now..." she warned.

"Oh yeah?" he whispered huskily as he rolled over to his side. "What would you do?"

"Well..." Renesmee began, smiling coyly. "The first thing I would do...is cover you in kisses everywhere."

"Ummm," Jacob groaned painfully. "Maybe we shouldn't do this," he suggested gently.

"Oh no," Renesmee admonished him. "You like teasing me? Now it's my turn."

"Oh yeah?" he breathed, knowing this was a terrible idea because her voice was doing bad things to him.

"Yeah...because after I kiss you everywhere, I'm gonna pin your hands over your head, so you can't touch me." Renesmee paused and listened to his breathing. "You still there, Jacob?"
