-A/N-
Alright, this is the third story in the 'Morning Light Saga'. You need to read Morning Light and Endless Night in order to understand what is going on. I also have another story called New Light, which is my first story, Morning Light, in Jacob's perspective.

1. DISCUSSIONS
It had been six months since Jacob had proposed to me. Six months since I said 'yes'. I was engaged to be married to Jacob Black. It still brought a smile to my face to even think about it. I loved him with all of my heart.
I didn't know how my life with Jacob could get any better, but he promised me as soon as he graduated, we were gonna go out and really start our life together.
He was starting to get a little nervous about his graduation. It was funny to see him so worked up about it. Being the valedictorian (something I was still impressed by), Jacob needed to write a speech to give to his graduating class. The graduation was in a few days and all he had so far was 'My fellow students'.
Jacob always had a way with words when the inspiration struck him. He just hoped it would strike him soon. I wasn't worried though, I knew it would be great. I kept telling him not to even bother planning what he was going to say, and just say it when the time comes. He always just said what was on his mind, he never really had elaborate plans or anything, so planning his speech ahead of time wouldn't really be a 'Jacob' thing to do.
For what was probably the millionth time since I had come back, Jacob, Edward, Seth and I were all hanging out. Us four were headed back from the movie theatre. As we sat in the car I began to think about just how weird the whole thing was. "You know what I find weird?"
"What's that?" Jacob turned to look at me. He was sitting in the back seat with me, an arm wrapped around my shoulders.
I laughed. "You guys. We've got a vampire and two werewolves on their way back from seeing a movie like a bunch of regular guys."
"You're just jealous because you're normal." Seth laughed in the front seat.
"I guess I kind of am. I mean, I'm just a regular guy with no super powers or anything. It's a little depressing some times."
Jacob smiled and stared into my eyes. "Would you rather hang out with normal people?"
"Not particularly… I mean the only other normal person I know here is Bella, and we may have been best friends back in Phoenix, but the more I've seen of her recently, the more I realize we're nothing alike anymore." I was a bit upset that I really didn't know anyone outside of the realm of the supernatural.
Edward sighed. "Bella has been acting differently as of late. I'm not entirely sure why."
Jacob laughed loudly. "Is it because you haven't boned her yet?"
"Leave it to the dog to think about bones…" Edward smirked briefly. "But to be honest, I think it might be."
"Why haven't you two had sex yet?" They had been married for quite some time, I mean, Jacob and I weren't married and we were having sex almost every night.
Jacob laughed again. "It's because he thinks he'll kill her."
"What?" Death by sex…? Well there was a time when I thought Jacob was going to kill me, but-
"Terry, please! I don't need that mental image." Edward shook his head.
Jacob turned to me. "What mental image?"
"I was uhh…" How to explain this one…
"Let's move on, please." Edward interrupted my thoughts. "It's true, Terry. I am afraid that during the heat of the moment, I might forget about my strength and kill her accidentally."
"Wow." I started to feel glad that I wasn't the one who was with Edward.
"She's so… adamant about having sex. It doesn't make sense to me. She wanted so badly to have me change her before. Her age was such a big deal to her. But now, she wants nothing more than to consummate our marriage. She wants to wait until we do, before I change her. She doesn't care how long it takes before I am willing to try it. I have to be missing something…" We were all quiet for a while as Edward drove on.
After a few minutes, we pulled up to Seth's house and dropped him off. He wished Edward luck with his problem with Bella and said we should hang out again soon, and given the previous months of us hanging out, it'd be within the next few days.
As Edward drove us home, he started to ask questions. "So, have you two decided on a date yet?"
Jacob and I hadn't really discussed the details of our wedding. All we knew is that at some point in time, we would marry. That was about it. "Not yet."
"You should discuss it with Alice. You know how she is. She'd love to help you guys plan the wedding: the date, the food, the flowers, the guest list. Anyone you want to invite Terry, let us know. We'll fly whoever you want out along with your mother." At Edward's mention of my mother, Jacob shifted slightly. After a few seconds Edward looked shocked. "You still haven't told her?"
"Wait, what?"
"According to Jacob, you haven't yet told her about your wedding, or even that you're with him." Edward's eyes were locked on mine in his rear-view mirror.
"Oh… Yeah…" I looked away. "I just haven't gotten around to it." Truth be told, I didn't want to tell her. I didn't know if she would accept me being with Jacob, let alone marrying him.
"Edward, leave him alone about it." Jacob spoke sternly. "He'll tell her when he's ready."
We were all quiet for the remainder of the ride. I did feel bad about not telling my mom. I knew it upset Jacob ever since we had a conversation about it. He felt that I was ashamed of being with him. It wasn't true. I just was worried about what she would think.
Jacob and I got out of the car and walked into our house. He sat on the couch in the living room, and I sat in his lap, leaning on his chest. He wrapped his arms around me. I turned my head to look him in his eyes. "I'll tell my mom, but you have to help me. You have to be right there with me. I don't want to do it alone, even if it's just on the phone."
He tightened his arms around me. "You never have to do anything alone you don't want to. I'm always right here." I guessed Jacob could feel my tension. He started to rub his hands up and down the sides of my arms. "I'll help you tell your mom, if you'll come with me to tell mine."
-A/N-
Yay, first chapter of Daybreak.
Not sure about keeping the title or not. But unless I decide to change it, it will remain Daybreak.
This is probably going to be the last story in the 'Morning Light Saga'. I'm going to try to make it into the best of the three.
There's a few big things I have planned, so please, if you don't like the direction the story is going, tell me. There's a few surprises I have in store that I'm not sure about. So when the big things happen, tell me what you think.
