"Come on while Alex is taking his nap, before the bonfire", Jacob said as he kissed the side of her neck with clear intentions not to let her go until she says…
"Okay", she breathed on a sigh as his hands traveled down her back to cup her bottom. She giggled, and turned around to throw her arms around his neck, "you're such a bad influence on me Mr. Black."
His eyebrows shot up at the accusation, "me? Well last time I checked, when we were free of imprints, you jumped my bones first, Mrs. Black."
"Whatever", and then shoved him back on the bed and jumped on top of him. As she began inching her shirt up to take off, the doorbell rang. They both stilled and stared at each other in a panicked state. "Maybe they'll go away." She whispered.
Jacob didn't care anymore and was to desperate to touch her because her neck looked too inviting, he started kissing his way up to her ear, grabbing her shirt from her hands and pulling up.
"Jacob stop, it could be Alice." She said trying to pull away and keep her shirt on while she was at it. But when he got to the ear, like him, she was lost. "Oh gods Jacob…your shirt…take off your shirt." He laughed and through it off and on the floor. He pulled her back up and close for another kiss only to be interrupted again by the doorbell being rung three times now with impatience.
Jacob growled low in his throat, and when Leah looked up in defeat, he pulled her head back down to his, "it's probably just Jehovah Witnesses."
She was distracted again by his beautiful mouth and began to get back in the action, until a smooth deep voice was heard through the window of their bedroom upstairs.
"Oh crap, get up here Rose, its free porn!"
Leah leaped off of Jacob and promptly fell to the floor pulling the blanket from the bed to cover her, until she realized she still had all her clothes on. It seemed Jacob's shirt was the only casualty during their lovely battle. Jacob sighed and then stood up from the bed to yank the window open with extreme force.
"If you were 2 minutes later, I may have had to gouge your eyes out." Jacob said matter of fact as he looked down at Emmet holding on to a tree branch.
"Good to know", Emmet replied and fell gracefully to the ground, where Rose hit him in the arm.
Leah stood and walked to the dresser to grab Jacob another shirt. She held it out to him in silence, and as he took it from her hands, he lifted her face to his and kissed her, "tonight" was all he said as he pulled away and began walking down the stairs as he put his shirt on. She smiled wistfully, because she loved it when Jacob got all demanding on her. Fallowing downstairs, she ran to Rose and gifted her with a big hug.
"Where's Alice?" Leah asked.
Emmet smiled before he answered, "Jasper got home from hunting and looked really appetizing to Alice, so she apologized and sent us over with the clothes."
Jacob looked over at Leah with a look that said he saw something appetizing too. She grinned and turned back to Rose to get ready for tonight.
Leah was wearing a white cotton halter top dress that fell all the way to her sandaled feet, while Jacob wore jean shorts with an Abercrombie and Fitch t-shirt matching his 4 year old son to the Tee. Alex was just happy Aunt Alice hadn't given him a tie.
They walked to the bon fire with Alex on her hip and Jacobs arm wrapped around her waist. Her thoughts drifted momentarily to when she walked to the bonfire all alone and Jacob had shown up with Bella. It's been years since that night, since the Quileute legends were told to her and Seth shortly after their transformation. And since then, her and Bella were friends, Jacob is hers, and she did the impossible; she had a child. Life was good and she was happy to be amongst her brother's even though it's been years since she's shifted.
The night went by smoothly, with Billy and Old Quil Ateara retelling the packs beginnings. The new members of the pack were in awe of the stories being true, and not one of them was a female. Leah leaned her head back against Jacobs's chest while she cradled a now sleeping Alex in her arms. The stars sparkled above them in a dance that she never grew tired of seeing. Once the last story was told, Leah looked up at Jacob as he kissed her brow in tenderness, "I think it's about time we head home Jake."
He nodded his agreement and stood, he grabbed Alex from her arms while he helped her stand with his other arm, however once she was balanced, he still hadn't let go. Emily walked over to them with a smile on her scarred face. "Hey Leah, I was wondering if you had that recipe you promised me?"
Leah watched as Quil and Embry came over to talk with Jacob, and looked at Emily trying to remember, "Oh right, the sweet potato casserole! Sorry about that, it's in the car, let me go get it real quick."
Leah turned around and whispered to Jake she would be right back, he nodded his head and gave her a kiss. She looked at Emily and they smiled at each other, the old hurt and pain gone for years now. She began walking to the car and stopped when her stomach cramped. She held out her hand to grip something and found only air. Taking deep breaths, she looked towards the car and started walking towards it again, only to double over in pain with another cramp. The Cramps started feeling worst and she began gasping for air as she fell to her knees on the ground and then fell to her side in the fetal position.
Sam was walking to the car with chairs and the cooler to put back in the trunk when he came across Leah lying on the ground. He dropped what he was holding and ran to her with his knees sliding on the ground. "Leah dear god what happened?"
She looked up at Sam and was disappointed; she wanted to see Jacob's face. She looked pass him trying to stand up with tears running down her face. "I-I need Jac-Jacob…no-n-now!"
Sam was nodding in understanding and tried to help her stand up until she froze beside him, and felt the worst pain of them all, and fell back to the ground screaming in pain. Sam laid her back on the ground gently and stood up to yell for Jacob but found there was no need, and saw that Leah's scream had him running to her side.
Jacob's eyes were panicked as he looked down at Leah, and with his hands trembling, cupping her tearstained face. "What…oh god Leah," he said in shock when he could see a red blood stain spreading across the middle of her once pristine white dress. Jacob looked up at Embry who stood nearby holding a scared Alex, "Embry, take Alex to Sue and call Carlisle to let him know were on our way to the house."
With orders given out Jacob picked Leah up as gently as possible and began carrying her to the car, her screams had stopped but she was moaning and sweating with a pale shade to her face. As he slid her into the back of the rabbit, she clutched at his shirt in agony and fear, "please hold onto me Jacob."
He looked into her eyes and slid into the backseat with her, he yelled for Seth who he saw running up to them to get in the front seat and start driving to the Cullen's. Without question Seth settled in and started the car immediately. Jacob looked down at Leah, who's moans became weaker and weaker, he wasn't sure if that was a good thing or not.
He laid his warm forehead to her wet one and breathed in deeply of her scent, and whispered, "I'll always hold onto you." He opened his eyes when she didn't say anything back and noticed her moans have stopped completely now, "Leah," He said quietly. Still no movement, "Leah, look at me please," he said with more demanding need. No flutter of her beautiful eyes to show she heard him.
Seth yelled from the front seat, "Were here." Jacob got the door open and stepped out with Leah still in his arms. Carlisle was running down the steps to him, and looked Leah over, "Give her to me Jacob."
"Like hell, I'm not leaving her side!" Jacob said holding her tighter to his chest.
Carlisle nodded, and gestured for him to fallow him up the stairs to the medical room they've kept setup ever since Nessie was born. Jacob laid her on the medical table and pushed the hair away from her face. He was never going to leave her side, and while Carlisle and Edward looked her over from top to bottom, Jacob sat back and stared at his wife, the mother of his child and the love of his life.
I can't lose her, please god don't take her away from us.
