Just For Kicks {Open}

[Emmett Cullen]

Once again he was having to face another dreadful day of school. Then again, it always gave him another day to be a full out teenager. Just living up to the human boy hidden somewhere deep inside him. Today was football try-outs, and once more he was showing up early for school. No intentions to really go out for the team, knowing he couldn't, just to tease himself with the insane idea.

Having borrowed Rosalie's car, he parked close the the back of the lot. Right next to Edwards's usual spot. Today he had come alone, mostly because school didn't start for good decent length of time. Alice was probably still fixing her hair, along with Rosie, Jasper was probably enforced to help his wife, while Edward...well...who knows what the hell that guy did every morning.Some human thing with beela he was sure. Emmett was curious, but not enough to figure it out.

Licking his lips, he shuffled the very empty--but for show--backpack, allowing the strap to hang loosely to his right shoulder. Making his way towards the steps of the school, he found himself grinning as he took a detour to an all to familiar black bench and sat down.

[Renesmee Cullen]

Nessie headed to school early, having woken up long before her alarm went off and with nothing else to do. Besides, she'd heard one of the many cars leave the garage. At least, if she were going to be there early, she wouldn't be alone. Leaving a note for her parents so they didn't freak, she headed up to the main house and tucked herself into the little Saturn Ion she'd saved up for and bought herself. It wasn't anywhere near as flashy as the rest of the vehicles the family owned, but Nessie rather preferred it that way. It was right for her.

Cranking the Paramore CD she'd left in from the night before, she drove slower than usual on her way through town, not in any rush to get to school despite her boredom. Things had held a ridiculous lack of interest for her lately, and it was beginning to get irritating. Granted, Forks had never been known for being the most lively of places, but it was her home and she loved it. But she'd been restless over the past few months, and was close to begging her father to take them on a trip of some sort just to get away for awhile.

Turning into the school, she spotted Rosalie's nearly-obnoxious red BMW and parked next to it, sitting in the car for a minute to listen to another song or two before finally deciding to get out and do something productive. Slinging her bag over her shoulder, it didn't take her long to spot Emmett by the football fields. Smiling to herself, she made her way over, sitting cross-legged next to him on the bench. "Not gonna try out this year?"

[Emmett Cullen]

Emmett turned his head to see Renesmee walking over to him. A large smile spread across his face showing his darling dimples. He looked down at her as she sat next to him he found the height different amusing. He was glad to see Nessie to tell the truth she was nice to talk to and mess with as well.

Emmett rolled his eyes at her comment and shooke his head. " You know I can't possibly try out...Carlise who murder me, or attempt to." he said smugly he knew the speech all to well. He couldn't expose them in any way it would be a danger to there speices and blah blah blah. He was tired of it but already knew better then to even try. But that didn't stop him from watching the young humans make fools out of themselves.

"Wheres your other half?" he asked refering to Jacob he rarely ever saw her without him now a day it was an odd thing to see one without the other. Not that he mindded he hadn't spennt to much time alone with Renesmee at all latly. But that didn't matter she was here now and he was fully able to enjoy messing with her.

[Renesmee Cullen]

Nessie didn't find the height difference quite as amusing as her uncle did, but at the same time she was pretty much used to looking up to people. Jacob was a whole two heads taller than she was, so craning her neck to see eye-to-eye with him was second nature to her now. "I know you can't," she replied with a laugh. "That, dear uncle, is called sarcasm. A talent I would've thought you had acquired after all these years hanging around Dad," she added with a smirk, teasing.

At his question, she sighed a little. Even though the separation was necessary because of school, she'd gotten used to spending every spare moment with Jacob and didn't really like the eight-hour torment school caused. "Down at the rez, of course. You know he can't hang around on school property. He'll get in trouble."

[Emmett Cullen]

Emmett rolled his eyes at Renesmee a smirk on his lips. "I know sarcasm much better then most this family." he said letting an unnessicary sigh out. "Trust me some of them just can't handle some of the prank I pull." he said smiling rmebering all the times he had pulled some trick on each of the family excpet Alice she was always a tricky one to get for obvious reason but he was determined to get her one day who knew when that day would come though.

Emmett shook his head looking back to Renesmee as she spoke about Jacob. A wicked smile spread across his face. "Trouble is my middle name and I don't see the harm in it really." he said teasingly. Emmett would encourage Jacob to come actually it would be his amusement for the day and he wouldn't mind helping out in causing a little havock at Forkses little highschool. True he would hear about it but that was Emmett for you. What was a little fun without some chaos of some sort.

Emmett may not be on the best of terms with Jacob especially with Rosalies feeling towards the wolf. But he was getting used to having him around. Beside when Emmett go bored enough it was fun to pick a fight with wolf. Getting him all rowled up made for a great night of sparing. Though he knew half the house hated it since it disrupted almost everyone with the noise.

[Renesmee Cullen]

And again, you don't pick up on the sarcasm. Gez, you're really not with it this morning, are you?" Renesmee continued to provoke her uncle, enjoying the banter. She enjoyed getting back at Emmett for al the times he'd poked fun at her growing up. It was fun without a reason really. She got an odd glee out of pestering her relatives most of the time. She'd always been a strange kid.

She rolled her eyes at Emmett's comment about Jacob, punching his arm. "Not funny. Much as the rest of you would enjoy seeing him get chewed out, I'm not going to encourage him to do something that'd get him in trouble. Besides, if I encourage him to come down here, soon he'll be kidnapping me between classes to hang out down in La Push. Do you want to be witness to the fit Dad will pitch if that happens?"

Nessie knew that the feelings toward Jacob were mixed back at home. And while her father tolerated him for the most part, it was clear that if he (Jacob) set one tow out of line, hell would break loose. Things were tense enough at home without her parents worrying about whether she was at home or cutting class to see Jacob. Not that it mattered much anyway. With how much moving they did and how many times she'd go through high school because of it, she'd learn anything she missed eventually.

[Emmett Cullen]

Emmett looked at Renesmee smiling and shook his head simply saying nothing. "Sometimes I think you to smart for seven year old." he said jokingly to her he knew she wasn't seven but hey messing with Nessie always was fun especially since she usually challenged him back as well. We all know Emmett loves a good challenge.

Emmett put his hand on his arm where she hit him and fake a look of hurt. But is fadded quickly as a laugh replaced it. " I would love to see that but I don't think he would steal you between classes I think our honored student would end up skiping." he said a smirk on his lips. Emmett knew by far he wasn't the best student missing weeks of school but the Cullens had the reasonings and excuses.

Emmett had mixed feelings about Jacob he knew how Renesmee felt about him. But Emmett enjoyed messing with Jacob all the same he couldn't stand the smell of him though he was getting used to it since either he was around or nessie was and she smelt like a wet dog. Emmett had to really take a side on whether to like the werewolves or not. Something Rosalie was pushing him on.

[Renesmee Cullen]

While comments about her age usually irritated her, Nessie had to laugh at Emmett's rebuttal. "That's because I am smarter than a seven year old," she replied, still laughing. It was so much fun to give her family a hard time, Emmett most of all. More often than not, he had a wittier response, and the battle of wits would commence. (Or, more aptly named, the battle of who can be the most sarcastic.)

Nessie rolled her eyes as he faked hurt where she'd punched him. The guy was a bear, it was most likely that he hadn't even felt her hit. "You're right, not kidnapping would be involved. I'd go willingly. Which I think Dad knows and it's what worries him most," she laughed, pushing her hair behind her ear. But, now that she thought about it, it made eprfect sense. She could tell that her father had been a bit more tense whenever Jacob came to the house over the past few months, and the puzzle was starting to come together.

She and Jacob had been spending more time together since she graduated last spring. She'd been realizing that her feelings for him may extend beyond friendship. Her Dad could read thoughts and had obviously realized this, since there were times when she didn't try and shield what she was thinking from him. Aw, crap, she thought miserably, sighing internally. Well, at least he hadn't started setting curfews and crap like that. Not yet, anyway...

[Emmett Cullen]

Emmett smiled at her he had to give her props for her come back. She was usually jadded when he made a coommet about her age. "True which makes you like an alien right?" he said playfully knowing very well none of the Cullens were anywhere near being normal. What was normal though really it was by far a word he gave up on trying to define many years ago.

Emmett nodded as she spoke about how Edward would feel about her going off with Jacob. There was alot of tension on that subject. "He just loves you and your growing up just so fast it's hard for him to let go." true the comment came off as sarcastic but there was some truth in it and Emmett knew that Renesme probably would get it to.

Emmett knew Renesmee was still considered a child in a way she was yonger then all of them but just as wise as all of them. Emmett shook his head his thoughts were getting a little to serious for him at the moment. Emmett could be seious when it was important to but her much prefered to be sarcastic and carefree.

[Renesmee Cullen]

I guess it does," Nessie replied, not arguing the fact. "But what does that say about you, if the alien can outwit you?" was the retort that followed, another smirk twisting the corners of her mouth. This was almost as fun as giving Jacob a hard time, but didn't hold a candle to the battles she'd get into with her father. Now that was a workout for the brain.

She sighed quietly at Emmett's reply, nodding her head. "Yeah, I know. But, really, it's not like I'm running off with some 23 year old biker with a tattoo and a nose ring. It's Jacob. Even if they haven't liked each other, he's known Jake since before I was born, and he can trust him." Wait, why was she defending him like this? It was one thing to defend your best friend, but she was wounding like she was trying to explain her reasoning for wanting to date him...

But what if she was? I mean, it'd make sense. All the awkwardness, the confusion, the random fuzzies in the pit of her stomach whenever he was anywhere within reach... Damnit, she thought, more of it coming together in her head. I'm falling for my best friend. Crap, crap, crap. Okay, alright, you can handle this. Just don't panic. And don't think about it when Dad's in the room. See, it'll all be fine. Thoughts raced frantically through her head as she tried to reason her way through this, and she hoped Emmett didn't notice the silence. Thank God Jasper's not here.

[Emmett Cullen]

Emmett raised a curious eyebrow to her. "Who said the freak aliens outwitted me,"He looked around him as if looking for someone "I sure didn't." he said teasingly to her. Emmett enjoyed the battles of wits almost as much as he did in tempting Alice in a battle on any sort. He knew some day he would beat her at least her hoped to that is.

Emmett laughed as Renesmee explained Jacob to him. "Sounds like some had a crush." he said jokingly. He shook his head still smiling. "Edwards and Jacob have a long history starting before your birth...it's complicated and I'm sure neither of them can explain it fully since they are so stubborn on the stand point in it." Emmett knew who ever you asked you would have gotten a different story but in truth it was quite simple game of my horse is better then your horse kind of deal...sort of.

Emmett looked to Nessie who seemed to be lost in thoughts of her own. A large smile swept across his face. Her place a hand on her head and ruffled her hair. "What's the matter thinking about a certain something?" he asked retracting his hand so it wouldn't get hit or anything. He was curious but knew he as going to respect her and not divulge into things she didn't want to share.

[Renesmee Cullen]

"Well, if the freak alien is smarter than a seven year old..." Nessie started, trying not to laugh. It had to be an off day for her uncle. He usually didn't give her this many opportunities to rag on him. Maybe he was just tired. Or maybe Rose had... Wait ... Nev ermind. She didn't want to consider what he and Rosalie may have been doing the night before. It was ridiculously nasty. Worse than the nights she'd wake up and hear her parents outside the house. Yuck.

She flushed a bright red at his comment, meant to be joking but really hitting the nail on the head. "I do not..." Nessie muttered lamely, looking at her shoes. And she knew full well about the rivalry between her father and her best friend. She'd been informed of that story a few days prior. Or, had the depth of it explained to her at least. It was a little ridiculous, but she kept her comments to herself. "Is it a crime to defend your best friend?"

At his next comment, she groaned, swatting at his hand. "Just because thinking is a foreign concept for you doesn't mean you get to tease me for it," she retorted, rolling her eyes. "And yeah, I was thinking about something in particular. It's nothing important, though. You probably wouldn't care." Oh what a lie this was. She knew that most of her family wasn't fond of the idea of her being with Jacob. And she couldn't risk telling anyone about her newfound feelings, except for maybe Alice. Anyone else might let it slip to her father, and then all hell would certainly break loose.

[Emmett Cullen]

Emmett laughed. "Well if you weren't smater then a seven year olf then there'd definitely be something majorly wrong with you not that there isn't already but I hate to make you cry." he said jokingly sticking his toungue out at her. Yes he could be childish but it was apart of who he was. Emmett wasn't really tired vampires didn't get tired the only thing they really needed to survive was blood. Emmett thought ack to the last time he had been hunting he realized his eyes were probably get dark. He would need to go on a hunting trip soon. Maye it could be an exucse to dissapper into the forrest with Rose for awhile. He smirked at the thought.

Emmet looked at Renesmee feeling slightly remorseful for haveing such thoughts around her she was still young in his eyes. He saw her blush and actually gave her a shocked look. "Oh did Uncle Emmett discover you secret." he said teasingly giving her a nudge with his elbow."No little miss it's not I was just joking but it looks like you can't take a simple joke." he said turning the tables around in this battle of wits.

"Of course I care." he said smiling at her. "You my little baby niece." he said giving her a brief noggy just basically asking for her to fight back now. He pulled away a wide smirk on his face he didn't want her to get upset which from er face a little while ago was where her thougts where heading. He was just going to have to fix that.

[Renesmee Cullen]

Nessie's tongue darted out on response, her lower lip jutting out in a pout. "If you don't want to make me cry then why are you being mean?" she whined, sniffling a bit. Oh, how she loved tormenting her uncles. Emmett especially. She didn't pick on Jasper too much because Alice usually got irrtated with her, and she loved Alice to pieces and hated to make her mad. At his smirk she raised a brow, then decided she didn't want to know. It was better in situations like these not to ask, particularly when he got that look. It usually meant he was thinking about doing something with Rose, and no one wanted to know what went on with those two behind closed doors.

She narrowed her eyes and glared at him, trying to detract attention from her slip. The last thing she needed was for Emmett to know about how she felt for Jacob. Chances were her parents had figured it out already, but they weren't making a big deal out of it yet. if Emmett knew? Oh, God, she'd never hear the end of it. "No, you didn't. And I can take a joke, you just don't know how to tell them," she countered, not wanting to be bested in this battle of wits. She hated losing anyway, and least of all to Emmett. Her father usually teased her relentlessly if she lost to Emmett, and she just wasn't in the mood to deal with that.

Nessie squeaked a bitand nearly fell over trying to retract her head from his grasp. Smoothing her hair back down, she whacked at his arm, glaring. "Not in public, thanks? Try and act normal. I know, it's difficult, but put forth some effort for your little baby neice," she teased, smirking. God, he made it so easy to dig at him! It was almost pitiful. Good thing Rosalie wasn't here yet, or she'd be toast.
