"You can build me up, you can tear me down, you can try but I'm unbreakable."

"Wait, so let me get this straight... you told Charlie that you're a werewolf?" 

 Jacob winced as if I had already hit him, holding out his hands as if they would protect him from my wrath. It was the first time I had seen Jake since my supposed death, and I guess he could sense I wasn't happy with him, because he started wincing as soon as I glared at him.

"Jacob, are you serious?" Bella demanded, in that moment her glare almost as scary as mine. Her startling red eyes grew almost twice in size, her nostrils flared, and her lips curled into a flat line. "Why would you do that?" 

 "I solved a problem! You were leaving, what did you expect me to do?" 

 "You have just put him in so much danger!" I hissed, taking a small step forward. Jacob responded by taking an even bigger step back, and looking at Jasper as if he could stop this. Jasper smirked slightly. We are the couple who beat people up together. "The Volturi will kill anyone who knows about the-uh... us." 

"No!" He defended, crossing his arms, "I only told him about me... not you."

 "You think that he'll just think-" 

 "All I said was that you were different. Okay?"  

"And that we have a niece we just adopted." 

 "Whoa-" I held up my arms, "a niece? Wouldn't that make Renesmee my child? Just say you adopted a daughter you weirdo." I rolled my eyes. Edward always has to make everything extra. Even though I have to admit Charlie might freak out if he thought Bella and Edward had a kid... he would freak, but it might be kind of funny. 

 "Do you consider the pain you'll be putting Bella through?" Edward demanded, seemingly just struck by the idea that Jacob was, in fact, an idiot. "It'd be like sticking a white-hot branding iron down her throat." 

 I winced at the description, although I didn't think that the pain would be something that would bother me. I haven't felt the slightest bit thirsty since the first time I hunted... but I haven't exactly been hungry either, which is a little bit worrying. Could I die from not eating when I'm this weird Vampire-human thing? I hope not, but I could tell Carlisle was having the same thoughts, as he was constantly monitoring my weight... like, every hour and a half. 

 "Look, Charlie's been in hell-" Jacob began, suddenly twisting on his heel so he was looking in my direction, instead of my sisters. "I know you want him in your life." 

 My throat suddenly grew very dry. He was right, I hate to admit it. but that was why I didn't want to change. I needed to tie up some ends, and then I can live peacefully.
