Music: Rain- Breaking Benjamin
"Finally, we're alone again!" Edward held me close to him as we gazed into each others eyes.
"Yes, it's quite quiet isn't it?"
"Indeed. Why don't we go upstairs?" he inquired while raising his eyebrow playfully.
"Sure." In a flash I was cradled in his arms against him chest, one hand under my knees the other behind my back. He leaned in to kiss my lightly on my full lips as he carried me upstairs. I giggled, unable to control the happiness that ran through me.
Without my blurry eyes, the room was clearer. He swung me onto the couch with ease and jogged over to turn on music. I wiggled around in the couch, finding a comfortable position.
I heard a click as the CD entered the stereo and before I knew it his arms were wrapped around my waist, hugging me against his no longer so hard chest. Our legs were intertwined as we held each other close, as if the world was coming to an end.
He stroked my cheek with his thumb and we just gazed into each others eyes, remaining silent. Who needed words when you could communicate through each others eyes, knowing every word that went through them?
As the soothing music finally broke through my own world, that I had become stuck in when I always looked into his eyes, I finally realized that the music was his creations.
It was my lullaby. Even though so many years had passed, it was still beautiful. Tears formed in my eyes. Edward caught one that escaped my eyes with his thumb and gently kissed the rest away. His smile made my heart melt once more. How could this man belong to me?
"You probably want to change back into your vampire appearance," He whispered, finally breaking the silence.
"No, if it makes you happy, I'll stay like this all night. Besides I don't want to move right now." I laid my head on his chest. He kissed the top of my head and continued to rub my back with his hand that wasn't rested on my throat where my pulse used to be.
"You don't need to do that for me. Please, be comfortable. Your beautiful both ways, choose the one you want. Don't worry about my desires," he whispered in my ear as his breath tickled my neck.
"I like this form. I don't mind being in it once in awhile. And I do worry about what pleases you; don't think I don't care about your wants… needs," I whispered the last word more quietly.
"Fine, if you're ok. Then I'm happy too." He kissed my forehead and we laid in silence again.
The only sounds to be heard were the trickle of the rain on the roof and the delicate music that played in the background. I was in heaven, in his arms once again.
"So I guess we have a wedding to plan!" he chuckled in my ear and I groaned.
"Oh, please I don't want to think about that right now, please, distract me," I whined as I squirmed in his arms.
"I think I know how to take your mind off that and put it on me." He spoke quietly in my ear as his hands roamer lower to my neck.
"Do you?" I smiled as he kissed the line to my jaw and finally my lips. I giggled. I was forever in paradise.
PART 2- Jacob's POV
2 years earlier
It was a normal day. I woke up with Heather by my side and the rain pouring outside, as usual. She was already awake and was watching me, adoringly, with sparkling eyes. When she saw I was awake she gave me her stunning smile that she knew I couldn't resist.
"Good morning." She put her arms around my neck and pulled me to her. I kissed her lightly on her pink lips. She sighed and pulled away, much to my dismay, to look at me.
"Are you hungry? Would you like pancakes?"
"Sure, they sound delicious."
"I'll get right on them." She hopped out of bed and grabbed her fuzzy, light blue (my favorite blue on her) robe.
I grabbed my pair of plaid pajama bottoms, that I rarely wore, and I followed behind her. I snuck up behind her to wrap my arms around her waist, not letting out her out of my sight. She giggled, as she always did, when I could not walk beside her without the feel of her skin on mine.
Of course breakfast was delectable, as always. When we were finished I pulled her onto my lap and held her close to me like we did every morning. She finish her coffee as I read the news paper.
"I love you," I whispered in her ear. A delicate smile appeared on her face.
"I love you, too," she replied in her silky voice as she kissed my warm forehead.
Her lips lingered there for a second before trailing down my cheek and to my lips. I cupped her cheek and our heads came closer, our noses almost touching. Then a loud knock sounded before I could fulfill my intentions. (I wasn't sure if that made sense, but oh well)
I groaned and another loud knock bagged on the door.
"Come in!" Heather shouted as she sighed, leaning away from me.
The door creaked open and in walked Sam and Quil. Their soaked, almost dripping, jeans stuck to them like glue. Sparkling drops of rain lied in their hair as few ran down their foreheads.
"Good morning. My gracious, you two are soaking? Why in the world have you been running around in the rain," Heather exclaimed.
"We have been taking care of some business. Sorry mom, we didn't mean to disturb you this morning."
"Let me get you some towels. Would you like anything? I can make you some breakfast." She was always so welcoming to the pack, like a mother, just like Emily or Kim. Or Maria, Paul's wife, or Claire, Quil's wife, and Alison, Embry's wife, always so welcoming and loving. We were one big family.
Heather jumped up from my lap and scampered to the closet to get a few towels. I stared at Sam, knowing something was not right.
"What's going on? What business were you referring to?" my voice was anxious.
Heather returned with a few, dark colored towels and handed them to Sam and Quil.
"What's going on? Is someone hurt?" she too was nervous as she walked back to my side, her eyes wandered back and forth from the three of us. I wrapped a reassuring arm around her slender waist.
"Why don't we sit? It's a long story." Sam gestured to the table.
"Sure, sit, please sit." I sat Heather on my lap and they sat on the other side of the table.
"Everyone in the pack is safe, but… the bloodsuckers have returned to Forks." He spoke through clenched teeth.
"The Cullen's?"
"Yes. I crossed their scent today. I already spoke with the leader early this morning, and he has promised to stick to the treaty."
"Is Bella with them? Do they know about her?" I couldn't hold back those questions. I always had wondered where she had disappeared too. I had figured that she had hunted down the Cullen's and was reunited with them. But I never got any conformation from her saying so.
I saw a small, timid smile crawl onto my lips as I asked about Bella. She thought it was charming that I cared so deeply for Bella, even though we were mortal enemies. I had told Heather about Bella, she knew everything. Heather never objected to my feelings about her, knowing all along that I cared for her more than anything on this earth.
"No. They know nothing about what happened to her. Only the short one knew and she hadn't told anyone. She spoke with me in private, wanting to know info about Bella."
"What did you tell her?"
"I told her that Bella was turned and she left eighteen years ago."
I nodded my head. I was glad that he didn't give them much detail on Bella's behalf. I thought that I deserved to know more about her and her whereabouts then they did.
"What are we going to do?" I asked, simply. My head was turned down to my hands that played aimlessly with a piece of Heather's hair.
"We are going to watch them. If they break the treaty, a war begins," Heather gripped my hand tighter to hers. I massaged her back, calming her instantly. "There is nothing we can do to stop them from living here. As long as they follow the treaty, all will be fine. I just thought you should be aware of the circumstances."
"Yes, thank you. Let me know if you find out anything else."
"I will." He stared at me for a moment before speaking directly to me again.
"Jacob if you break the treaty, you know the consequences. I know you would like to give your… thoughts to Edward, that bloodsucker, but you must keep them to yourself. He is miserable beyond explanation. That should be enough. Do not go to him, it will only end badly."
"I understand. Are you sure… he's miserable?"
"Completely, he was lifeless and dead. Even though he physically is. He showed no emotion, I think he misses her. He hasn't moved on or anything."
"Why are you defending him?" I snapped back. Heather slapped my shoulder and when I looked down at her, I felt embarrassed for my harsh words.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean that. I apologize." I hugged Heather closer. When she her small arms wrapped around my neck, I knew that she had too forgiven me.
"I understand. I know you loathe him, but you cannot see him. I wasn't trying to defend him, just answering your question," Sam replied in his calm, relaxed voice. His hands were held up in the air, in defense.
"Yes, thank you."
"Well, I'll let you get on with your morning. Thanks for your patience, Heather." He nodded toward her and smiled back.
"Of course, thank you." She shook hands with Quil before they departed out of the house. You barley heard the sound of wet shoes on the wood floor.
"Jacob…" she turned her head into my chest, sick with worry.
"Shh, it's okay. Don't worry; I'll keep you safe, like I promised long ago." I rubbed circles on her back.
She turned her face up and I wiped away some stray tears. "Silly Jacob, I'm not worried about me… I'm worried about you." Her fingers glided across my cheek. I smiled down at her.
"Me? There just a few, vile vampires, nothing to worry about. I can take care of myself and you of course. Even though they are bloodsucking leeches, I… somehow am able to trust them. I know it's strange, but Bella trusted them, even after they left her. If she can… so can I. They never broke the treaty; I don't think we should expect any trouble from them." I reassured her.
"Really? You can trust them?" she asked in astonishment.
"I think I can, they never really screwed up, expect about leaving Bella. But that was better for her in the long run. Sam will never trust them, but I think I can learn too."
"Wow, I didn't know you could be so… civilized about them," She teased.
"Ha, ha," I paused for a moment, figuring out my thoughts, before continuing, "I will give them a chance, but they do one thing wrong, that trust will cease to exist!"
"What ever you say, sweetie." She kissed my cheek and laid her head into my chest, relaxing again.
"I love you. I will never let anything hurt you, ever." I stroked her hair.
"I trust you, I really do. And I love you too." She leaned her forehead against mine and for that moment I forgot there was a coven of vampires that just moved back in town.
