Well, here we are once again. A new fic and a new start. :) I'm looking forward to this, I think it'll be a lot of fun.

So, I want to thank MicheleHarper who gave me the idea of naming this 'Unpredictable'. With what I have planned it seems fitting and matches with the title of the prequel.

For any new readers, a lot of this won't make sense if you haven't read Uexpected... But you could try this and see. There might only be a few bits that are confusing.

So yes, I hope you enjoy! Don't forget to follow me on Twitter and on my blog - the links are on my profile. :)

Chapter 1

Renesmee POV

How could it be that after 1 year, my life could miraculously fall into place? Bliss is the only way to describe the way my life has been.

My mother is living a blissfully happy married life with my father – none other than Edward Cullen. And I am living a blissfully happy life full stop. Jacob and my family have made every second worth living. Who could ask for more?

"I think the black one looks best. Don't you?" Alice asked as I paraded in front of the full length mirror, a little black dress in my hands. The satin feeling so supple against my skin.

"I'm not sure. I like the blue one." She put her hand on her chin and tilted her head to the side.

"Maybe we should try the red one?" I nodded.

"Oh my! You have such problems!" I swivelled to find my father leaning against the doorframe of my room, a grin on his face. Him and Mom had only been back from their honeymoon for a few weeks, but they've fallen into the routine of a happily married couple perfectly. "Hi Nessie." I smiled.

"Hey."

Alice sighed as she walked out of my rather large walk in closet, the red dress in her hands.

"What do you want Edward? We have things to do here." He rolled his eyes as Alice put her dainty hands on her hips and scowled – not before having placed the dress on the bed so that it didn't get creased.

"Renesmee's breakfast is ready and Jacob will be here to take her to school soon." He addressed Alice to give her a valid reason as to why I'd have to leave. She sighed once more.

"Fine, give me two seconds with her. Shove this jacket on and put on your boots. Then you're all set." She smiled whilst chucking a leather jacket at me. I loved the rock chic style she'd got going for me at the moment. I ran down the stairs, flitting past Edward and jumping over the banister of the last few steps.

"Careful Ness." Mom laughed as I grinned, gliding past and into the kitchen where Esme had made me pancakes. I went over to the other side of the counter and placed a quick kiss on her cheek.

"Thanks Grandma, they look lovely." She grinned.

"No problem sweetie." I took my seat at the breakfast bar, downing my orange juice and eating my pancakes so fast I barely had time to get comfortable. "What's the rush?" Grandma laughed. But it was then that I heard the roar of an engine and gravel crunching as a motorbike made its way up the Cullen mansion drive. Grandma laughed again. "I guess now I know." I smiled at her, thanking her once again and grabbed the jacket off the side, slipping on my boots.

"See you later guys!" I called over my shoulder, a chorus of goodbye's followed me as I walked out the front door. Of course, all other surroundings, sights and sounds were inconsequential as soon as I took in the sight in front of me. He grinned as he leant against his black motorbike. His shaggy hair dishevelled but gorgeous. I smiled back and ran down.

"Hey." He breathed as he grabbed me by the waist and kissed me quickly – appropriate for being outside of a house full of vampires.

"Hi." He smiled and handed me a helmet. I may be almost indestructible, but Mom still had her safety issues. Although she hadn't strictly said I should wear it, I could see the worry and Jacob seemed to agree with her. I took it and placed it on my head as I straddled the seat, wrapping my arms around Jake's sculptured body. He grinned and kicked the bike to start, swinging the back around as we headed towards Forks High.

The ride gave me a chance to think. Today was my first day back since my trip to Cambridge with Jacob. Seeing Layla and co was so great that I didn't want to leave and seeing as I could pass all my exams without having to even attend school all year, they all agreed it was safe to stay for a while.

Since they had returned from their honeymoon, my parents and my entire family had been treating me more like the adult I am. After constantly having to live like a child for my entire life – in the sense that I always felt I had to be there for my Mom – I am now able to live like an adult – even if I do still have to go to school. But I don't mind; I'm looking forward to this fresh start. It's something I've needed and I know now that I'll be able to make decisions and have my opinion valued as equally as every other person in my family.

Frequently I had been to see Charlie and Sue. Jacob and I hung out in La Push with the wolves – old and new – and I made sure to include my friends from Forks. I may not have been back from Cambridge long, but I knew what I was going to do. I hadn't seen them in so long, I really am looking forward to it.

Jake and I neared the school and I tightened my grip on him, knowing that I would have to let go soon. He chuckled and I buried my face into his back as he turned into the car-park, the bike leaning so close to the floor as he rounded the corner that I could almost touch the grungy tarmac. I sighed as he pulled up and he laughed once more, swivelling on the seat so that he looked me in the face, removing my helmet and his. He leaned forward and gave me a gentle, parting kiss.

"I love you." I whispered.

"I love you too." He pulled me towards him quickly, hugging me tight before letting me go. "Do you want me to pick you up?" He asked. I shook my head.

"I don't think so. I think I might go shopping with the girls. I haven't seen them in a while you know? But I'll text you to let you know." He smiled before putting his helmet back on.

"I'll see you later then." I nodded and he rode off. I watched until he was out of sight, before sighing and turning to face my first lesson.

"Ah-hem." Someone cleared their throat from in front of me and I grinned as I looked up.

"Renesmee Swan! Where the hell have you been for three weeks?" I laughed and threw my arms around my best friends. Jen, Sam, Kat, Kane, Jimmy, Aaron and even Terry.

"I've missed you guys so much!"

"Obviously, not enough to return." Jimmy huffed with his chin tilted up. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm sorry, I really am, but if you were me you'd've done the same." Jen laughed and nodded.

"I know. We all would. Jimmy's just being especially moody today." I laughed and his eyes shone as he slung his arm around Aaron's shoulders, pulling him towards him. "So, you have to tell us all about it! Did you see that Ian guy?" Kat asked me. I laughed and nodded.

"Yep. He's a mess, but he was on his way to move out anyway. Apparently he's moving schools."

"Why?" I shrugged.

"Fresh meat probably." I sneered and the all followed suit. "Ugh, it doesn't even matter, I don't care about him. We need to go." They nodded and shifted, starting to walk to class just as the bell went.

"Ren, this is Louisa. She's new here – only arrived a couple weeks ago." Kane introduced me to the new girl and I smiled at her as I sat down at the lunch table. She smiled sheepishly back, her face only just visible through sandy ringlets. Her green eyes were piercing and alert, a contrast to the shy aura she seemed to give off.

"Hiya." I greeted.

"Hey." She nodded once and went back to eating her lunch. Her small fingers drumming on the table as she chewed. I looked around the table to see everyone talking to each other except for Kane who was desperately trying to get her to talk.

I turned my attention to Jen who was next to me.

"Is she always so shy?" She nodded and smiled.

"But she's really nice though. Kane has a thing for her we think, it's quite sweet really." I smiled.

"Terry hasn't got to her yet has he?" She laughed and shook her head.

"Not yet, thankfully. He's spoken to her, but we've stopped his dodgy conversations before they corrupt her and send her running. We don't want that."

"Definitely. I was wondering if you wanted to go out later? You know, after school. I haven't see you in a while." She grinned.

"Sounds perfect. We can get something to eat and go shopping. We taking Sam and Kat?" I nodded.

"We should take Louisa too. You know? Try to include her." She nodded.

"Great idea. I've got Bio with her next, so I'll ask her then, I'm sure she'll come. So, how was your trip?" I grinned and got started with my stories, telling them all about Jamie and the latest with Tina. Louisa looked on in interest, but kept quiet.

"Renesmee Swan. Isn't it nice of you to join us after your little holiday. I do hope you've been reading whilst you've been away. You won't pass your exam if you don't." I fought the urge to roll my eyes as Miss Christelle read my name in surprise as she registered me.

"I was reading Miss Christelle." There was no need to tell her that I've read Catch-22 fifty times already, or that it's one of my favourite books and I could probably recall the entire novel word for word if someone asked me to. I'm not sure she'd appreciate that.

"Good. I hope you catch up with us." She sneered and Jimmy sniggered beside me. I turned to face him and glared. He just smirked and raised his hands all innocent. I rolled my eyes and went back to my doodling.

It felt good to be back here. Great in fact. To have a family and to have a boyfriend is all something I never thought I'd have 10 years ago. But yet, here I am. Mom says I've grown so much in the last year than she's ever known; I guess it has something to do with the intensity of it all. Knowing your father left your mother all those years ago, and then seeing him in the forest as he sneers at you? There's a lot of growing up that has to be done there I guess. I know I've been immature about things. I remember when they first told me we were leaving Cambridge and I kicked up a fuss even when I knew it was for my own safety. I think that was one of the most selfish things I could have done. But it's all part of the learning curve, and I think I definitely learnt my lesson. The events that followed just helped me to come to terms with everything. I had a lot to learn and a short space of time to do it in, and if you were to ask any member of my new found family, they'd all say I'd done it. Truth is, I'm still getting there.

"Ren?" I looked up to see Jimmy standing in front of me, books in his hands. I scanned the room – empty. I must have spaced out and not heard the bell. Miss Christelle looked at me with one eyebrow raised accusingly as I gathered my things together still in half a daze. "What happened to you?" Jimmy asked me.

"Must have zoned out I think." He laughed.

"I can't blame ya honey, that woman's voice is enough to send the dead back to sleep." I giggled as we walked to my locker. "So, what do you think of the new girl?" He asked me.

"She's nice. A bit quiet, the only thing she's said to me is 'Hi' but I'll get used to it. With a group of people like you, it's nice to have someone quiet." He feigned hurt and turned away from me for a bit.

"Swan, I'm offended." I rolled my eyes.

"You'll get used to it." He laughed.

"I like your style." I had to giggle as I pulled out my History textbook. This thing was the size of my mirror and not practical for my new leather school bag Alice had bought me as a welcome home gift. I liked gifts, but sometimes, they got far too extravagant and I felt guilty about not being able to get them something back. Carlisle had told me numerously that if I wanted anything, all I had to do was ask, but I couldn't do that. I'd always learnt to live without all the fine things and I've managed so far just with Mom and I. There's no need for me to suddenly change just because it's offered to me on a plate.

Louisa soon walked past. Her head down as she focused on putting one foot in front of the other. Her quiet nature seemed so surreal for someone with such inquisitive and knowledgeable eyes, but it's just the way some people are. People stared with curious glances as she bounced down the hallway, probably the smallest girl I've seen.

"I feel sorry for her." I told Jimmy as we walked on to Modern History.

"And why's that?" He asked as we slowed to a dawdle, nearing the classroom.

"I know how it feels to have all eyes on you on the first few weeks. It's not cool." He smiled.

"She'll get used to it. You did!" I smiled.

"Yeah, but she's just so quiet all the time." I frowned.

"She's always been like that. We've got used to it now." I rolled my eyes.

"You're so insensitive." He laughed once.

"I'm sorry honey, but it's just how I roll." He pretended to flick his hair as we entered the History classroom.

I'm sorry it's short, but there wasn't too much I could put in this opening chapter. I just wanted to set the scene and get things straight with a few things.
