Renesmee is finally "fully grown" and ready to start living. How do the people she loves most react when she is ready to be a woman?

Gravity Gravity!

So, I recently was reading through Gravity, and I realized how bad some of the begining (like the first thirty :]) chapters kinda...well, SUCK! so i'm going to be reposting the edited chapters of Gravity over on FF.net.  same story, just better!

You know those fics where Edward doesn't come back and Bella forgets about him and five seconds later she's in bed with Jacob and none of it makes any damn sense?
Yeah, this isn't one of them.

This story picks up from the moment in New Moon when Jacob has driven Bella home after the cliff diving incident, right before he catches the scent of Alice. Only in this telling, Alice wasn't looking, so there's no sudden appearance at Bella's house, no Rosalie calling Edward and sending him on a suicidal mission to Volterra, and no reason for Bella to do anything but believe that Edward didn't love her anymore. This is simply a story of what might have happened if everyone stayed mostly in character and Edward's return was delayed. Yes, delayed. Because we all know that he was "this close" to coming back on his own anyhow.
So what would have happened if Bella had tried to move on with her life?  Would she have found happiness with Jacob?  And would Edward be too late?

* First in a series of stories

~I thought of Jacob’s warm arms wrapped around me, his infectious laughter, and his ability to keep me from falling to pieces again… The pain choking my heart relaxed and I could breathe.~

~“More than anything,” I whispered, not caring what I'd just agreed to. When it came to Bella, it didn't matter what the question was. I just wanted.~

Nine years has passed since Edward left her cold and alone on the forest floor. She has become familiar with the darkness and has relied upon Jacob to be her warmth and light.  After nearly a decade of living in the shadows of others, a crushed and broken Bella wanders off into the forest in search of the place where everything had gone wrong. 

She's known the cold bite of Ice.  She runs from Fire's all consuming intensity. What she finds on her jilted journey will change the way she remembers both forever.
