Sm owns Twilight
"Please, no!" I begged.
"Yes!" she said brightly with a grin on her face.
"No."
"Yes."
"Please, please, please, no! I'll do anything! I'll go shopping with you and carry all your bags and buy everything and take you out to dinner and-"
"Oh, you will be doing all of that in the near future." She smiled at me, "But I want to go see my brother's imprint. And you are going to take me."
Damn imprint. "Rachel, please, baby. Please don't even ask me." I begged her.
I guess I was finally discovering the downside to imprinting on the best, most beautiful woman in the world. She was stubborn. Just like her fucking brother, who had to go and imprint on fucking Edward and fucking Bella Cullen's fucking half leech baby. Fuck.
"Paul, there isn't even a question here." Rachel tapped her foot impatiently, "I am going to see my brother's imprint and I was wondering if you'd like to come along."
"But- But- I- She- Jake-" I sputtered like an idiot.
Rachel rolled her eyes and grabbed her car keys. "Ok. Stay here. I was really hoping you'd come along. Whatever. Jake, Seth, and Leah are there. I'll be fine with out you." She said breezily.
"No, no, no!" I yelled, "Rach, if you go see her, you will be surrounded by vampires! I cant- I wont let you go."
That was five minutes ago. Now I'm riding shotgun in my imprint's old white Dodge Intrepid. Fucking imprint magic. When Rach put on her pouty face and let a few tears slip about how worried she was about going to a vampire house with out me, fuck, I caved. I had to! I couldn't let her go there by herself!
But now that we were actually in the car, Rachel was all smiles and was telling me all about how happy she was for Jake. Yeah. A baby vampire. What a lucky fuck…
When Sam, Embry, and Quil got back from their little party over in vamp-land, all three seemed to have fallen in love with the weird little creature. Well, maybe not Sam. But he seemed to at least not be scared of it. Quil and Embry were fucking giddy.
Sam informed us that everything between us and the Cullens were just fucking peachy. Whatever. They broke the treaty. But Sam alpha ordered me not at attack anyone while I escorted Rachel to see Reneamemssnee. Whatever the stupid vampires named her. He even made a special run to the Black's house just so he could order me. Jerk.
Quil and Embry talked about her for the five days since they've seen her. Apparently she can make you see things. I think that's fucking weird, but Jake is proud of his little imprint's mind games. Quil and Embry are equally impressed.
Another reason I had to escort Rachel there was the fact that Bella had just woken up as a newborn, blood thirsty vampire. And, although when I called Jake to tell him we were coming, he assured me Bella and Edward would be else where, I just didn't like the fact that she would be in a newborn's house.
And I didn't care about the shit Jake told me about Bella not attacking Charlie when he came over. Rachel was so much more important than Charlie. I had to personally oversee her safety.
"What's her name again?" Rachel brought me out of my sulking thoughts, "Renee? Something with an 'R' right?"
I shrugged, "I guess Jake calls her something else."
Rachel sighed. "Paul, stop being such an ass. Jake imprinted on her for a reason. She's not dangerous. If you don't want to come then you can get out of my car right now." Rachel pulled over and stopped the car.
"No! Rachel! Its just- This is weird. I was taught to hate vampires and now your brother is gonna marry into a family of them."
"Well, yeah. Of course its weird. You're a werewolf." Rachel looked at me for a few long seconds before sighing. "What's really wrong, Paul?"
Damn it. How could she read me so easily? "I- I'm just- I'm nervous, ok!" I exploded. "I don't have the best control. I know that. You know that. Everyone knows that! What if I phase to close to you and I hurt you? I don't want to hurt you! And on top of that, I know you'd be disappointed in me if I phased. But what if-"
Rachel cut me off with a quick kiss before she started driving again. "I have faith in you." She said.
Wow. Faith. Great.
As soon as we pulled into a drive way, my nose was assaulted by the smell of leeches. My hands shook, but as soon as Rachel reached over and held one of my hands, it stopped.
I could do this. I could do this.
"If I tell you to run or get back, you'll do it, right?" I asked. "Promise me."
"I promise." She said, parking the car.
I took one last breath of non- saturated air and opened the door before rushing over to Rachel's side. She took my hand and led me onto the porch.
She knocked and not a second later the door swung open to reveal the little leech. I picked up the name Alice from Embry's head. "Hello Rachel. Paul." She said with a welcoming smile. "Come in. Edward, Bella, Jasper, and Esme are out hunting right now so you can relax, Paul." She said cheerfully. I saw right through it. She was a predator. And my Rachel was the intended prey.
"Thank you." Rachel said in a calm voice as she pulled me into the smelly house. "Um. Yeah. I'm Rachel Black, Jacob's sister."
"I'm Alice Cullen. Its nice to meet you. I would shake your hand, but I could guess the outcome of that." She said with a grin before flitting away.
"Oh, great." Leah's sarcastic voice said from the other room. "Paul is here. As if the leech smell wasn't enough. Now we have to deal with his stench."
"Excuse me." A female vampire voice snapped. "You are welcome to leave at any time. That goes for you as well, fido. You have no right to complain."
"Shut up, Blondie." I heard Jake mutter as Rachel dragged me into the living room. "Hey Rach. Hey Paul." He said my name with a little less enthusiasm.
Jake was holding the…baby? in his arms with a leech standing over him glaring.
"Hey Jake." Rachel said quietly. She took a step towards Jake, Leah, Seth, and the leech. I immediately growled and pulled her right against me.
Jake rolled his eyes. "Get your paws off my sister, Paul." He spat at me before looking lovingly down at the creature in his arms. "So what's everyone saying in the pack?" Jake asked me.
I couldn't stop the shakes and growls coming from me as I answered. "No one know what the fuck to think."
Jake gasped and looked down at his imprint as her tiny, half vampire hand shot up to his cheek and after a few seconds back down again. Jake looked at me with angry eyes. "No, Nessie. That's a bad word, you can't say it, think it, or show it, ok honey?" he cooed.
Rachel pulled away from me and took several steps forward. I shadowed her. "What do you call her?" Rach asked.
Jake grinned, "Well, I think Renesmee is a mouthful, so I shortened it to Nessie. Bells doesn't really like it, but she does." He grinned down at Nessie.
I had heard the story of how the bitch tried to attack Jake for giving her daughter a nickname after the loch ness monster and how Seth saved the fucking day. Bella is such a bitch.
Rachel and I were now close enough to see Nessie. I saw the vampire in her. I saw that pussy vampire's hair and the bitch's eyes. Big freakin deal. It was a baby-kid thing. They all look the same.
But then I looked at Rachel. Rachel's face was light up like a mother fucking Christmas tree. But she wasn't just looking at the kid. Her eyes were going from Jake- to the kid- to Jake- and back to the kid over and over again.
Did I look that stupid every time I looked at Rachel? Nah. I couldn't, I'm the epitome of cool, now way I could ever look that stupid. But… then again, Rachel was like a billion times better than Nessie. And every time I looked at Rach happiness and other pussy/wonderful emotions washed over me. So… I probably did look kinda stupid.
But Jake was staring at a baby like that. That loses him some serious cool points.
"Wanna hold her?" Jake asked Rachel.
"No!" I yelled before she could answer.
The kid fussed around which made the blonde vampire scoff. Jake rolled his eyes. "She's smart, Paul." He sneered my name, "She knows she can only have the blood in bottles."
"I would love to hold her." Rachel said, shooting a glare at me.
"Wait!" I jumped in as Jake was just about to hand Rach the kid. "Just- Wait. Let me- I- Lemme hold her first!" I spat out.
Rachel beamed at me, the blonde glared, and Jake looked amused. "Aw! Paul!" Rachel cooed, "That's so sweet of you!" Oh. She thought I wanted to hold the creature. Nah. I just had to make sure Jake wasn't trying to kill his sister. I didn't know what the fuck the little thing was capable of.
"If you drop her, or hurt her in anyway," Jake warned, "I will kill you." He said it with such seriousness that I wasn't sure I wanted to hold it. Baby necks were all floppy and their skulls weren't fused together and all that shit. They were very breakable.
But before I could vocalize any of this, the warm, little body was placed in my arms. Nessie looked up at me with wide, smart eyes. She was…
She was kinda cute I guess.
But freaky. Her pale hand shot up to my face and just like Sam, Embry, and Quil said, I saw pictures of her family and Jake. I would have dropped her if Jake's warning wasn't so fresh in my head when she showed me an image of Rachel and me.
Goddamned it. I do look as stupid as Jake.
But Nessie seemed to have different feelings on that subject. From what I could feel from her, Nessie was happy that Rachel was happy with me. Jake had apparently been telling her stories about his childhood and she was fascinated with Rachel.
Who wouldn't be? Rachel is the most amazing person on the planet.
I quickly took a peak at Rachel. She was laughing and smiling with Jake. She was thrilled to have her happy brother back. I couldn't hate anyone who gave Rachel happiness.
Ness then showed me an image I was prepared for. She asked everyone else if they liked her. And I was seeing the same question. I had originally planned on not holding her because, in all honesty, I didn't really like her, but seeing the way she noticed Rachel and I kinda warmed me up to her.
That and the fact she would most likely be my sister-in-law someday, made me reply with and honest, "Yeah. I like you, too, Nessie."
