He slightly turned his head and I pulled myself together in the dead silence. Why does life have to be so messed up? I'm choosing Jake aren't I…but Edward is my other half, I've been through this countless times.

Come on Bella, pull yourself together girl!

"It's him, it's final." I said almost like telling myself.

The tension in my words simmered on the floor between us and I could see it rising from Edward's standpoint.

Not only is he losing me but Renesmee, too.

No, it's for the best.

"This isn't about us anymore—it's about our daughter, what do you want from me?" He snapped back.

"I want the man I fell in love with to come back and be with me. Not this." I motioned to the ground in front of him.

"Fine, have fun with your pup—I'm done." He glared.

Saying the word I'm done hurt enough but "fun" sounded like poison sliding down my throat. I felt like hell but Jacob is there for me; he is always there for me.

My shoes clicked against the floor and brushed Edward's shoulder while retreating from the room; there was no reason to stay. I felt a pair of eyes when I looked and found two dark brown eyes looking at me sleepily in the darkness of the hallway.

Attempting at cheering up, I scooped Renesmee into my arms and snuggled her close. Her hand found my face and patted for attention—I pressed closer as she replayed Edward and I ending the last few years we've had together before playing all the happy times we had, too.

"Maybe I can help?" Carlisle appeared out of the dark hallway as well.

I looked at him puzzled once Renesmee leaned over to see him.

"Surely you don't want to ruin Everything you have with Edward including the one bond you two share sitting in your arms-" He smiled to his granddaughter and looked over to Edward.

"Call Jake" He said.

"Jacob?" I said with a slight hint of happiness. I knew it would make the commute faster.

Jacob walked in the door a few minutes later. He had his helmet in his hand and barely looked at me but more to Renesmee in my arms along with the rest of the room. I sighed with the situation; a hunch said it was going to get ugly.

"Bella…you want to have Renesmee, correct?" Carlisle asked sweetly.

I nodded.

"You also would like to have Jacob?"

I nodded again.

"-and of Edward?" He asked with certainty of what my answer would be.

I nodded with a slight smile.

"Then have them all" He motioned and looked to Jacob.

"Deny her and you lose her, Jacob. She loves you and she is willing to destroy her marriage along with losing her most prized possession—Renesmee—for you. You should be smiling right now but you are not and it is because this still feels broken, that's understandable. Jacob you need to let go of having her to yourself and learn that it will never be to yourself-"

Jacob and Carlisle both looked to me, Renesmee, and Edward before returning to eachother.

"—she has another willing to replace you." Jacob's eyes immediately flashed to Edward but Edward shook his head and looked to Renesmee sitting on my lap.

Jake nodded slowly and finally met my eyes with a slight smile.

Carlisle gracefully spun on his heels to Edward and brought his hands together. I wondered if this conversation was going to be for all of us to hear or just those two then Carlisle finally began to speak to his son.

"Edward, I've known you over a century and have never seen you like this. I will say I am ashamed. You and Jacob are the same whether you prefer to recognize it or not—you both have the desire to protect Renesmee and love Bella eternally. So learn to work together. Bella can't fight this anymore as we've all noticed and surely you will grow tired of it in the next century so let's forgive and restart immediately. She would hurt if replacing you and you know the last thing you want is for her to hurt helplessly again." He concluded before backing up to a seat in the corner of the room.

Edward stared at the floor in thought and Renesmee wrestled from my lap and repeatedly nudged her dad beside her until he slightly smiled at both of us.

I smiled back and Renesmee laughed like she understood what the smile meant to our relationship and life together.

I love you, Edward…I love you, Jake…I love Both of you.

"You're right Carlisle." He said and scooted closer to me before pushing squished Renesmee into his lap.

"I'm not yet, I don't want it." Jake spoke.

Edward silently sighed and I shook my head wondering when this would end.

"Jake?" I asked.

"Just let me figure this out"

"It's different for me than you two. I'd be the limited one." He added before leaving out the door beside me.

Edward nudged me.

I snapped out of my thoughts to find Edward beside me with small concern and Jake beaming; I looked to Jake who was repeated what he said to Carlisle and Edward chuckled.

"As long as I get to walk in the house and not be insulted by their kissing on first hand but also see that little Bella, I'm okay with it, too." He said looking to Renesmee.

I looked down to Renesmee and she craned her head back to meet my eyes.

That's when I noticed.
