Chapter 2 At Last

The heat was almost unbearable but it was so beautiful that it was hard to complain. The sun beamed bright across the entire ocean, each ripple in the water glistened with each wave. The air smelled fresh and new, it felt as if I had a new pair of lungs. I welcomed each breath with a smile. The scenery was stunning and bright, the tree's stood motionless as the hot humid air blanketed around me.

I turned to face the most beautiful thing here.

"Jake" I said as I breathed in another strong gust of air. "I can't believe we are finally in Brazil"

He grabbed my hand gently. "Are you happy?" he asked.

I knew he was referring to the location of our honeymoon but I took the question literally.

"I'm happier than you could ever imagine" I wrapped my arms around his neck "I actually don't think many people in the world have ever experienced the type of bliss I'm experiencing right now"

He laughed and gave my lips a quick peck as if it were routine already.

"Well we should unpack" he suggested.

"I suppose" I sighed.

The sun showed bright in our room. The humidity was intolerable. I lifted the suitcase on to the bed pulling out bathing suit after bathing suit, lingerie piece after lingerie piece –which I was not going to wear; Aunt Alice could yell at me about that too if she wanted.

I could feel beats of sweat forming on my forehead. I'd never been out of rainy cold Forks, Washington. This heat plus my already extremely high temperature was not mixing well at all.

"Jake…" I said exhaustedly "I'm going to take a shower…the ride here was brutal and I hate feeling so hot…and sweaty…its gross" I complained as I grabbed another bag hoping my soap, towel and wash cloths were in it.

"Ok…I'll call down stairs and have them bring in an air conditioner"

"Thanks babe" I smiled as I grabbed what I needed for the bathroom. I walked past Jacob quickly pecking him on the lips but he grabbed my arm. He wrapped his arms around me tight and kissed me passionately. There was no need to dissect this kiss or analyze it. This was my husband that I was kissing, everything from every angle felt right. I didn't want to think. Sometimes thinking was too much.

Our bodies were meshed together as I felt new pellets of sweat forming on my body. I did another mathematical problem in my head; this heat plus my high temperature and Jacob's high temperature was not going to mix well.

"I have to take a shower" I whispered against his lips. He smiled; our lips still touching.

"Ok"

"Call downstairs?" I asked but I didn't wait for an answer I was already in the bathroom. This bungalow was beautiful too grand for anything Jacob and I were willing to spend on our honeymoon but my entire family insisted.

The bathroom was huge, with a gold chandelier hanging from the middle. The walls were sky blue with a golden border. The floor was some type of grey and blue marble.

I placed my things on the small white couch in the corner. I walked over to the shower, its porcelain tub rimmed in gold with huge glass shower doors. I turned on the water as I got undressed.

I stepped into the cooled shower, letting the cool water trickle down my body, letting each cold drop erase the hot humid air that had moistened to my skin. It was so calming and relaxing, I was going to hate getting out of this shower having to step back into the tortuous heat. I lathered up the soap when I heard a low creaking sound.

I ignored it as I closed my eyes leaning my hair back into the cooled water. Then suddenly the glass door was open. I jumped as my eyes finally caught focus of who it was. It was Jacob-of course- standing there with a look on his face that I could not describe.

"Jacob" I said shocked. A part of me wanted to cover my body just off of pure reflex but this was my husband what's mine is his including my body.

"They'll have the air conditioner in some time this afternoon" he said as his eyes examined my body lifting slowly to my face.

"Oh…ok" I nodded as I stood there water trickling down my face. There was a moment of silence that I wasn't sure if I should break or not. I could hear Jacob's heart beating it was as if it were calling my name specifically. I felt this unfamiliar rush blaze through me. It was an unadulterated feeling. I'd never felt anything so intense in my life.

There was some type of cosmic pull; I could see in Jacob's eyes that he was feeling the same thing as well. In that moment we both lunged towards each other. I pulled him into the shower with all of my strength, the water drenching him from head to toe. He was fully dressed; his t-shirt clung to his body as I fought violently with it, trying to take it off. I'd untied the draw strings to his shorts; they dropped to the shower floor with a loud clunk.

We kissed under the splashing water with such eagerness. His hands were all over my body and mine were all over his. He lifted me up in his arms as I wrapped my legs around his hips.

There were no words this time. No asking if I were sure, no playing games, no fear of being caught. This was my husband and as his wife I wanted nothing more than to be connected with him right at this moment. And at that moment it commenced. I was finally one with Jacob, not symbolically but physically. We were officially two halves of a whole. My love for him was pouring through every nerve ending in my body.

The ecstasy the coursed through my body was that of an unknown word. I was complete; euphoric I was enthralled in every feeling, every motion, every ache, every aspect of being bonded so secure with Jacob.

Elation and bliss were trivial words; they didn't scrape the surface of what I was feeling right now.

As I became breathless, as the water splashed angrily against us; I wrapped my arms tighter around his neck pulling my face closer to his ears.

"J…Ja…Jake" I panted exhaustedly "I …I …love…y…you"

Chapter 2 Part II Nahuel POV

"So you see it's truly that simple" Aro smiled half heartedly. "It's not as if it matters, the girl married the dog…so it's not as if you're jeopardizing your chances with her"

I gritted my teeth; I still couldn't believe Nessie married him, without even thinking about us one last time. She knew she was trying desperately to cover up the feelings she had for me just to abide by some wolf voodoo.

"Nahuel, we've given you enough time to make a decision. We've given you beautiful headquarters to think in, bathe; we even supplied you with the appalling human food that you prefer…"

"And in that time, I told you I wouldn't help you" I interrupted vehemently.

"What a pity, I assumed you'd come to this conclusion" he turned facing Felix and Alec "Would you two please bring out our other guest" Aro waved them off towards the door.

Aro turned towards me with that same eerie smile on his face. "I really didn't want to have to do this but you left me no other choice"

I was confused I didn't know what he meant until two large doors opened and there stood Hulien; Felix and Alec with tight grips on her arms.

"Let her go" I yelled "She is not a part of this"

"Oh but she is…the simple fact is, if you don't do what I ask…then …"

Aro stopped speaking as Hulien-the woman who had been practically a mother to me- started to wither in pain. Excruciating screams bellowed from her mouth. I looked over to see Jane with a menacing smirk on her face.

"Stop" I yelled "Stop" no one listened but why would they. Hulien fell to the floor, her eyes almost bugging out of the socket. I couldn't bare it; I had to stop the pain.

"Ok" I yelled "Ok, I'll do it…I'll do it just stop" I conceded loudly. Aro raised his hand towards Jane and her smile vanished. The screams stopped; Hulien laid there trying desperately to recover from the torture.

"Marvelous" Aro beamed. "I knew you'd come around" he said excitedly.

Renesmee POV

We laid in the gigantic bed, the hot air bellowed lightly down my spine-it was starting to cool off but only slightly. I was sprawled safely over Jacob's chest, my naked body draped protectively over him. I giggled lightly at the soft snore that was starting to crescendo coming from Jacob.

I moved to stretch my body, it was sore but not in a particularly bad way.

This was the most amazing dizzying happiest moment of my life. I didn't feel apart of this world anymore, feeling new was an understatement. I didn't know that such a feeling of pure tantalizing pleasure was possible.

It felt as if Jacob and I were made for each other, not just mentally but physically. We molded together with such ease such reliable and undeniable certainty that every second of pain I felt was quickly covered over by elation.

I slowly got up, I didn't want to wake him. I grabbed the white sheet that was dangling from the beds edge and tied it around my body into the bathroom. The shower was still running, I laughed to myself realizing that I never really did get a chance to finish my shower.

I let the sheet fall from my body to the floor as I slowly stepped in to the freezing water. I turned on a little of the warm but not too much, it was still pretty humid in the bungalow. The throbbing sensation I felt would have been much more painful had it come from a different circumstance, but this pain I welcomed and only beckoned it as a practice feeling that wouldn't last forever.

As I lathered the soap on my body; washing the scent of Jacob from my body regretfully. I heard an annoying buzzing sound. Who could be calling me on my honeymoon, we just got here; I thought to myself.

"You want me to answer it?" Jacob yelled out from the bed.

"Who is it?" I called back.

"Don't recognize the number" he stated simply.

I figured if it wasn't my mom or dad than there was no use in answering right at this moment.

"Let the voicemail get it…then listen to it"

He laughed "You're screening calls now"

"It's our honeymoon, no one should be calling…you know my password right?" I questioned. He didn't answer.

I continued to wash my body lathering strawberry kiwi shampoo in my hair and rinsing it out thoroughly. I cut off the water and stepped out of the shower grabbing my towel off of the small couch. I wrapped it around my body as I just let my drenched hair lay freely and wildly past my shoulders.

I opened the door to see Jacob sitting on the side of the bed. With his shorts on and his chest bare.

"What…?" I asked sarcastically "No round two?" I walked over to him caressing the side of his face.

He didn't respond. "Hey what's wrong?" I asked concerned. I started to feel self conscious, what if I had done something wrong, what if he was feeling regret. That's not possible right? Everything was so right and so perfect for me how could it have been wrong.

He didn't answer; he just held my cell phone up, placing it on speaker.

'You have one unheard message' the automotive voice spoke 'press one to play message'. Jacob pressed one.

"Ness, hey it's Nahuel I need to talk to you its very…very important. I miss you and I just…well it's very important that I talk to you as soon as possible…please. Remember what I said don't ignore it…don't ignore me"

'End of message Press two to replay message' Jacob pressed two.

"Ness, hey it's Nahuel I need to talk…"

I didn't listen to it the second time. My heart sank; my mind was running miles per hour trying to figure out what to say. I hadn't spoken to Nahuel since the fight, so much has happened since. I didn't think he was something I would ever have to worry about again. And yet there he was in the mist of ruining my honeymoon.

"Jake…I don't know what that is about…I haven't seen him or spoken to him. I'm married to you Jake…Nahuel he is just…" I stopped speaking Jacob looked up finally his eyes were a little softer than I expected them to be but they were still angered.

"Ness…its fine" he said lowly. "I believe you…you can't help that he called" he sighed.

I was wondering if this whole being married thing was truly changing Jacob, because the Jacob I knew would have blown up, he would have suspected the worse. But he believed me, he trusted me not as Nessie but he trusted me as his wife.

"I'm sorry…when I figure out why he called…"

"You're not going to figure it out…you're not going to call him back…your never talking to him again" Jacob interrupted.

I didn't want to fight on our honeymoon and Jacob looked so adamant. I left it alone.

"Ok, you're right" I conceded. In that sentence I realized that this whole being married thing wasn't only changing Jacob but it was changing me. The old me would have argued why I should see what he needs to tell me, the old me would have been upset that Jacob commanded I not call Nahuel back and that I could never see Nahuel again, but I let it go. Being happy with Jacob was my only concern.

Nahuel was a part of Nessie Cullen's life, a part that confused her and made her question things that shouldn't have been questioned. At that moment I decided that Nahuel wasn't invited to Renesmee Black's life, she was confident and not fickle minded, she was a woman so positive of her life and future that nothing would stand in its way.

Jacob closed my phone and handed it to me. I didn't like the feeling in the atmosphere, Nahuel's surprise call was almost enough to sour this perfect honeymoon. I couldn't allow it I had to act now, do something to change the ore of the room.

I threw my phone on the night stand and dropped my towel "Back to the original question…no round two?" I asked as I slammed my body on top of his forcing him to lay down on the bed, my lips crashing and molding perfectly against his.

I was ready for the next exhibition of our love making, though I had been a virgin, being with Jacob I just knew what to do everything fell into place without any sort of glitch.

I was ready to encounter this drug again, Jacob being my addiction; when there were three loud thuds at the door.

"Ugh…not the interruptions again" I rolled off of Jacob on to the bed.

"Maintenance" a man with a heavy accent called out.

"The air conditioner" Jacob sighed as he put his shorts back on. "I never thought I would say this but…put some clothes on… I don't want the guy looking at you" he smirked.

I grabbed a large t-shirt from one of the many open bags on the floor. Jacob's t-shirt was so much bigger than I was, it was comfortable and had his scent all over it…it was perfect.

A young Brazilian man with extremely long hair came in to install the air conditioner in the window. As they did so, I just stared at Jacob's perfectly sculpted body in complete wonderment that I belonged to him and that he belonged to me. I didn't feel deserving. Against any conscious will; my mind retreated back to when I'd hurt Jacob so terribly. How I let Nahuel almost come in and tear down everything Jacob and I had built up.

Then I thought about a conversation my mother and I had when Jacob had broken up with me and Nahuel was coming by wanting to see me. She told me that whatever was going on between Nahuel and I wouldn't go away if we didn't talk about it, if I didn't tell Nahuel specifically how I felt. I remembered before the fight I was going to tell him right then and there how I felt but Jacob came unexpectedly. For all I know Nahuel could think he still has a chance.

I wanted this to be officially over, I couldn't have Nahuel popping up out of the blue trying to win my heart…I wasn't even sure if he knew Jacob and I were married. It would kill him; it's not fair of me to leave him in the dark when he'd saved my life when he'd done nothing wrong.

I decided in that moment that I would call Nahuel back-when we got back to Forks-only to tell him how I felt and that whatever it is that he thinks is there, is no longer there because Jacob is everything and more than I need. I knew that Jacob couldn't know about this, that he would be livid with me. But if I wanted this to go away, if I wanted this situation to never rear its evil face again then I knew what I had to do.
