The following weekend found Edward, Rosalie and Seth in Seattle because Alice said that Forks was not good enough. They all suspected that she saw something but decided not to ask.
R: So where is Jake?
Se: Some rich guy from Forks came in this morning saying that he heard we could fix cars quickly and asked Jacob to fix something for him ASAP because he needs the car for tonight.
E: Shame, I'll call him later.
Se: He won't answer, too focused.
E: Okay well, we do not have a lot of time.
R: Why did you have to wait until today anyway?
E: I was working the entire week, taking a day off would be odd, especially for me.
R: Yes mister white collar, get going now.
...
They went to three different stores before they found what they deemed was the perfect one that all three of them could agree on. Edward had a little something special added before the three of them were ready to drive back to Forks. Edward usually wasn't much of a talker but being in the same car with Rosalie and Seth for a couple of hours didn't leave him with much of a choice. They talked about what Edward had planned, helped him hash out a few ideas on his presentation and even spoke about how he was feeling.
~That Evening~
The entire Cullen family including Carly as well as the Quileute's who were free helped out with all the last minute arrangements to make sure everything would go down perfectly.
Jacob's POV
I have been working on the car all day and I haven't even had the chance to talk to Edward even once but I had to finish this because this guy could lead to more business for us.
S: Jake, how far are you from finishing?
J: I think I'm all done, just need to clean up here and then Paul can do his favourite part of the job.
S: Which is?
J: Taking the car for a test drive 'making sure everything is in good working order'
P: Hey, it's a part of the job and I just so happen to be great at it.
J: Mm-hm.
S: Any plans for tonight, Jake?
J: No, not that I know of, why?
S: Em invited you over for dinner, she hasn't seen you in a while.
J: Cool, let's get going.
S: No.
J: No?
S: Not looking like that. You know she'll send you home to go wash up if you show up looking like that.
J: Oh yeah, I remember.
S: I'll go pick you up in half an hour, be ready.
J: That's not necessary, I can drive myself.
S: Sorry boss's orders.
J: You and that boss of yours.
S: She will kill both of us if I don't drive you and you know it.
J: All too well.
S: Good, so I'll be at Billy's house in thirty minutes.
J: Okay, see you.
...
P: Emily's going to hurt you for using her name like this.
S: It was her idea, she knows that none of us can say no to her.
P: I can.
S: Do you want to tell her that to her face.
P: No, I think I'll pass.
S: Smart choice, now take the car before the guy gets here and then lock up and please don't forget Billy.
P: I would never.
...
Jacob got home, greeted his father and then jumped into the shower. He got out feeling refreshed and glad to be clean from all the grime that was covering his body after a full day at the garage. He got changed into dark jeans and a t-shirt because he knew Emily preferred them fully clothed whenever they came over for dinner because she couldn't control their states of dress or undress during the day. After getting dressed he sat down on the bed and tried calling Edward but it went straight to voicemail. He tried calling two more times and left a short message for Edward after the third call was sent to voicemail and then decided to go join his father.
J: Why don't you join us for dinner at Em's?
B: No you young people go out and enjoy yourselves.
J: It's Saturday night ad and I don't like it that you're here alone.
B: I'm not going to be, Harry is coming over and we're watching the game together.
J: Okay, if you say so but call me if you need anything.
B: Mm-hm.
J: Dad.
B: I promise I'll call now go Sam is here.
J: Okay, love you.
B: Love you too, son.
...
Jacob was busy starring at his phone when he got into Sam's truck.
S: Ready to go?
J: Uh... ye-yeah.
S: What's up with your face?
J: Huh, what do you mean?
S: Jacob.
J: It's Edward. We haven't seen each other all day and I tried calling him now but it just keeps going to voicemail.
S: He might be busy with something but I'm sure he'll call you as soon as he realises that his phone is off.
J: Yeah probably, now let's go because I don't wanna have to explain to Em why we're late.
S: As you wish.
Sam started the car and drove but Jacob was too out of it thinking about why Edward's phone was off that he didn't realise or even notice where they were heading until the car came to a stop.
J: Sam, what are we doing here? (He asked looking up for the first time and realising that they were at the path that led to the border.
S: Just get out and you'll see.
J: But...
S: Just do it, Jake.
J: Okay.
...
He got out of the car and jumped back in surprise when a certain spikey haired vampire appeared out of nowhere.
J: Edward. (He gasped)
E: Hello Jacob, the reason why my phone was off is because I did not want to be disturbed.
J: Why, what were you busy with.
E: You will see now, thank you Sam.
S: Anytime. (He said driving away)
E: Come on, follow me please.
...
-Border-
J: Wow, this looks beautiful. You set it up?
E: I helped, everyone did actually.
J: It looks really beautiful.
There were small candles all over and fairy lights in the nearby trees that lit up beautifully in the moonless night. There was a blanket in front of 'their rock' with Jacob's favourite foods set up on it.
J: It has a romantic feel to it. (He smiled)
E: That's why my phone was off, I had to focus in order for it to be perfect.
J: Why? I know it's not our anniversary so why?
E: I just wanted a special night for the two of us one that we will both enjoy and remember. And before you ask me why again, I just wanted the night for the two of us.
J: Okay, I'll accept that for now.
E: That is all that I want.
J: So can we get to the eating because I was promised dinner.
E: This way sir.
The two of them sat down and Jacob enjoyed the different varieties of food available with Edward feeding him every once in a while. They talked for a bit and Edward later laid with his head in Jacob's lap.
J: Okay, what's up Spikey? I've seen you angry before, I've seen you pissed, happy and a bunch of other things but I have never ever seen you nervous before not even when we were facing Bella so please talk to me. (He said running his hands through Edward's hair)
Edward laid there looking into Jacob's eyes seemingly working a few things out in his head and Jacob allowed him to until Edward finally sighed and sat up straight.
E: No talking until I am done okay?
J: I promise. (He said pulling Edward in for a kiss)
E: Okay. So uh... When we first met at this border I was in the worst stage of my life but I still opened up to you more than I did towards my family, I instantly felt like I could trust you and then I started developing feelings for you that I could not understand and then I found out that you imprinted and it all made sense to me. You are wonderful with Carly and I could not hope for a better partner because you are like her father. You get along well with my family even Rosalie and vice versa. We have built this powerful pack, a family... and... and I want the two of us to build something powerful, something magical. I want ... uh... Jacob Black, will you marry me? (He asked getting down on one knee and taking out the ring)
J: You're amazing you know that right. You made my life that much better and I will always love you 'till the end of time. (He said pulling Edward up) Of course I'll marry you. I'm not gonna leave you so that some desperate lady can come pick you because you are mine. I will marry you Edward Cullen.
E: Oh goodness, thank you. (He said pulling Jacob in for a kiss but being stopped by Jacob)
J: I want my ring first Mr. Cullen. (He laughed)
Edward put the ring on Jacob's finger and then pulled him in for a lengthy kiss.
J: So this is why everyone has been so sneaky this week, they knew?
E: Mm-hm, I asked for Billy's blessings first then I told my family followed by Carly and I told the pack last.
J: Real family effort, I guess I have a few people to thank then.
E: Start with me. (H said pulling him in for a kiss again)
...
When the two of them got back to the Cullen house that evening after eight everyone was gathered barbequing and they celebrate the news together into the early hours of the morning.
...
The guys had a traditional Quileute wedding with Carly as the flower girl and Sam and Emily's newborn as the ring bearer with everyone else playing a special role in the celebration. Everyone gladly offered to watch Carly while the boys went on their honeymoon.
The End.
