Another week past and it seemed as though time was going faster and faster. Days were going so quickly that I found myself surprised at how all our lives were developing. Jake was spending a lot of time at the Cullen's and always came back with a smile. I was glad that he was getting somewhere with Edward. He told me that they spent their time talking and getting to know each other, starting as friends and working their way up.

Rylan was acting a little weird. He seemed a little shifty. Leah was getting closer and closer to her scan and we were all pretty much excited about it.

Today I was going to be headed to Seattle with Landon and the boys. I was looking forward to getting a tattoo. Sam was not happy about me going with the boys. I had to convince him that I would be fine but he still didn't like the idea.

I woke up about nine. Sam was still asleep next to me, one arm beside his head and the other against his stomach. I propped my head up on my hand and smiled down at him. His lips were parted slightly and his breath fanned my lips.

I stroked a line down his abs with my fingertip, smiling when the muscles twitched under my touch. He was so darn ripped that just looking at him filled my body with lust. I was one lucky girl that was for sure.

As my fingertips danced on the soft skin of his lower stomach, he groaned in his sleep and arched up a little. I smirked leaned over to kiss the same place. The thin silk sheet was pooled around his groin, tented with what will be his morning gift to me. He had work in an hour and a half so I really needed to wake him up someway or another.

I crawled over him and leant down to kiss his lips, then I moved it kiss every part of his face. His eyes, his nose, his cheeks, his forehead. He breathing quickened as I skimmed my lips down his throat, nipping and sucking the tender skin. I could feel his pulse racing under my lips and couldn't help but smile.

His skin was so soft, yet it covered the firmest of muscle. A faint taste of coconut tweaked my tongue as I lapped at the silky flesh. He moaned beneath me and moved his arms down to wrap them around my waist, one hand caressing the bare skin of my backside.

I giggled quietly as I nibbled along his collarbone. A large, rough hand slowly slid up the curve of my back, pressing me further against him. The feel of his naked skin against mine was something I loved. Something I would never give up.

"Morning baby." I murmured against his skin, smiling.

He grunted, "Hmmm carry on."

I chuckled and licked a long line up the column of his throat and pressed my lips against his. I couldn't help but moan. And for a minute, I felt my throat close up with a silent sob. Not the bad kind. The this-is-too-good-for-words kind. The overwhelmed kind. The ecstatic kind.

I knew he felt it, cause he held be closer. Kissed me deeper. Teasing my lips with his tongue, sliding the wet flesh into my mouth and curling it around my own tongue. I shifted my leg up, bending my knee up to his hip.

"Mmm, god I love you." he murmured, making me smile. He gently ran is fingertips up over my hip, making me jump as he stroked a particularly ticklish spot. He chuckled and circled the same spot a few times until I was trying to pull away.

"Stop!" I whined, purposefully rubbing my stomach against his hard arousal in order to distract him. It worked. He moaned and the hand moved up my waist and up to stroke the side of my breast.

I pulled up and looked down at him. His lips were stretched into a large smile and mischief sparked in his dark eyes. He looked so darn cute. His thumb circled my nipple lazily as he grinned up at me.

"How long we got?" he asked, running his teeth over his bottom lip.

"About an hour." I smirked.

His other hand swatted my ass as he pulled my other leg up, "That's enough." he grunted, obviously slipping further into his lust.

"What are you doing?" I squealed as he pulled my body right up so that I was sitting on his chest.

He growled, "I need to taste you, baby. I want your taste on my tongue all day. A reminder that your mine as you go out with those idiots." he pulled my hips up so that my slit was above his mouth.

His tongue snaked out to swipe at the layer of wetness glistening on my nether lips.

I sucked in a sharp breath as he growled, the vibrations making me jerk. He wrapped his arms around my thighs pushing me down onto his mouth.

"Oh fuck." I yelled as his tongue stroked along my mound, delving deep and swirling around my clit. He was devouring me and it was so goddamn good that I could help but scream out.

He moaned as he lapped at me, making me reach down to grab a handful of his hair, gripping tightly as I rocked involuntarily on his face. His hands reached up to cup the weight of my breasts and his fingers pinched idly at my pert nipples.

"Oh, baby…yeah, that's so good." I whimpered as he sucked my wet flesh into his mouth and laved it with his tongue. My hips almost shot into the air but he kept me down. I had to bite my lip hard, in order to keep myself from screaming the house down as he rained his assault of my most sensitive skin.

It wasn't long before my whole body started to quiver and sparks were firing up in my groin. The tightly wound spring my lower stomach suddenly burst and I yelled out Sam's name as I convulsed. Pulling roughly at his hair as he continued to slide his tongue along my core, sipping at my flowing juices.

"So fucking good, baby." he grunted as he lifted my hips and pulled me down his body.

"God yes…" I panted as I felt his cock slide against my soaked nether lips. He was about to enter me when I stopped. "Oh, wait." I moaned and leaned over, opening the bedside drawer and pulled out a condom. I heard him sigh dejectedly as I sat up and ripped the packaging open before rolling it down his thick marble length.

"Hurry, I need you." He growled just as I let go and raised myself up. He didn't want to wait and grabbed my hips, yanking them forward and slamming me down on his cock. We both growled as he plunged into me and gripped each other tighter.

I leant forward to place my hands either side of his head as I rose up and slammed back down again. The feel of his hard flesh spearing through my tight muscles had my thighs quaking and my mouth falling open.

"Yeah, that's it baby. Ride my cock." Sam growled, gripping the flesh on my hips tighter. He had become so much better at talking to me like that during sex. I no longer had to prompt any dirty talk. He knows what I want and gives it to me.

I bead of sweat rolled idly down my spine as he shifted up and flipped us over. I bounced on my back as I hit the mattress. He loomed over me and grabbed my ankles and hoisted my legs over his shoulders, leaning down to kiss me as he began to piston into me.

This was the time that we could be one together. In every aspect. And through that we could give each other more pleasure then was ever possible before. I loved having his skin against mine. Having his body inside of mine. It made me realise that there was no place I'd rather be.

What seemed like a lifetime of pleasure later, the familiar tightening in my stomach began and I gripped his ass, pushing him deeper.

"Almost…there." I gasped as he pulled all the way out and then thrust deep again, his balls slapping sharply against my ass as he did so.

"Yeah, baby, god you feel so good. Still so fucking…tight." he leaned down to kiss me again, the change in angle set me off and he swallowed my yell as my inner walls contracted around his cock. Stars burst in my vision as he pumped a couple more times before roaring as he spilled his release. He released my legs, placing them down onto the bed and then collapsed on top of me.

"Oomph." the breath expelled sharply from my lungs.

He grunted an apology and rolled over, taking me with him. I took a deep breath as aftershocks shot through my body. "God, I love you." Sam murmured.

I giggled and leaned up, "I love you too, babe. But we need to get up and ready. You have work in a little while." I kissed his pouting lips and jumped up. Invigorated after a lil morning loving. I practically skipped to the bathroom and jumped into the shower.

Sam joined me once he had cleaned himself up a little and we stood under the hot spray, arms around each other and kissing softly. Tenderly. That was what life was about.

It took me a while to get dressed, I was too busy getting distracted by Sam stepping into his uniform. But I finally managed to dress. Pulling on a short denim skirt and some purple leggings. A black skeleanimals t-shirt and some trainers. I put a little makeup on but not much.

Strolling downstairs together we headed into the kitchen and I made us some pancakes. We sat opposite each other at the table so that we could talk.

"I want you to be careful today." Sam said slowly as he raised a glass of orange juice to his lips.

I rolled my eyes, "I'll be fine." I smiled, "Put I'll miss you." its good to butter him up before these events.

His lips curved into a large smiled, "Good. I'll miss you too, baby. How about we just spend time together tonight?" he asked.

I knew my eyes must have lit up cause his smile widened. "Yes please. We should get a movie and order some pizza in. snuggle on the couch."

He chuckled and nodded, "Sounds great. I'll grab a movie after work."

"I'm gunna pay Jake a visit when I get back. You'll probably still be at work but maybe you want to meet me at his. I wanna see if he and Edward are moving along well."

"Just don't interfere." Sam chuckled.

I gasped and placed a hand on my heart, "Me…interfere. Never."

He just rolled his eyes and scoffed, "How's Leah doing?" he asked.

"Great. I think that she is a little worried about Rye. But she's excited for the scan. Not long now and we can see the little critter."

"Its going to be exciting." Sam smiled, "Imagine what it will be like when we see our child on that screen for the first time."

I giggled, "I'm sure it'll be a great moment."

We continued to eat our breakfast and chat about little things until a car horn sounded from outside.

"Right, that's me off." I smiled and put the plates in the sink.

"I wish you wouldn't go." Sam pouted childishly.

I rolled my eyes, "Yeah, I know you do. But I'm going. I'll see you tonight." I leaned up to peck him on the lips. "Love you." I mumbled.

He grabbed my hand as I turned away and pulled me up against him. He covered my lips with his and kissed me until I was dizzy. Then he smiled down at me and said. "I love you too."

I shook my head and chuckled, "Have a good day at work."

I skipped outside and smiled when I saw the guys waiting in Landon's truck. I quickly jumped in the back and sat half-way on Colton and Archer's laps.

"Hey guys." I giggled as I tried to get comfortable.

"Hey Bella." they called in unison as usual.

Landon smiled at me in the rear view mirror and then revved the engine before driving off. "How are you today?" he asked.

I grinned, "I'm great."

"Why are you in such a good mood? I though girls were supposed to be moody in the morning." Luke said, fiddling with the piercings in his ear.

"I got some booty this morning so im uplifted." I giggled.

The guys burst out laughing and shook their heads at me. "Bet Uley will have a great day at work today." Kyle chuckled, his eyes glistening with laughter.

I shrugged, "He's probably going to be worrying about me all day. He wont be happy till I'm home."

"Possessive much." Archer muttered.

"Of course, I'm hot stuff you know."

"That you are." Landon smirked, "So what are we doing first when we get to Seattle."

"Tattoo shop!" Colton, Archer and I called at the same time.

"Oh god, im turning into one of them." I muttered, hanging my head. The guys laughed at me and Colton shook me a little.

"Think yourself lucky." he said.

I raised an eyebrow and scoffed, "Yeah, sure." I said sarcastically.

"So do you know what tattoo you are getting?" Kyle asked.

I nodded enthusiastically, "Yep."

There was a few moments of silence and then Landon asked, "Aren't you going to tell us then?"

I shrugged, "You wont get it. You can just wait to see it later. What are you going to get?" I asked the boys.

Archer smiled, "A dragon on my back…its gunna take a few sessions but I can get it started."

"I'm getting just getting a tribal design down my arm." Colton licked his lips and smiled.

"Hot." I chuckled.

The engine roared beneath us as we drove further from home. We chatted and laughed. Turning the music right up so that AC/DC blared through the car. We sung our hearts out and giggled like little school girls.

When we parked up in Seattle, we jumped out and headed. There was a row of shops, the one that caught my eye head 'TATTOO' in large red letters above its door. The windows were tinted slightly but I could easily see the movement of people inside.

Landon put his arm around my shoulders as we walked up to the door and headed inside. The shop itself was quite nice and large. The floor was a lacquered black tile and the walls were covered with amazing Japanese art.

There was a large counter to the right and a few heavily tattooed staff sitting around, bored. There was no customers at this time and as soon as we all walked in their eyes lit up and one of them jumped up to meet us at the counter.

"Hi." he greeted, "I'm Tony."

Tony was average height and build, with a large blonde mohawk and piercings covering his face. I placed my hands on the counter and smiled. "Hello Tony." I said and smiled as he blushed slightly.

"So how many of you are looking for a tattoo?" he asked me.

I turned to the guys and raised an eyebrow in question. "All of us." Archer informed.

"Okay then." Tony smiled and paired every one of us up with an artist. I, of course, was with Tony. He took me to the nearest station and asked me about what I wanted. I told him. Two wolf paws on my hip, one white and one black. He questioned, and took my story about a passion for loyal animals. He also had the two paws angled towards each other, touching slightly.

The next few hours were a bit of a blur. There was so much chatter going on that it was a little hard to keep up. Everyone was having one large conversation and it was really nice. The boys were whining about the pain of getting tattooed while I didn't feel it at all.

When Tony had finished the tattoo and I checked it out in the mirror, tears sprung to my eyes. It was perfect. A great representation of Sam and I. The black paw and the white one where leaning against each other. Supporting each other. I couldn't wait to show Sam.

"Its amazing, Tony. I love it. Do you think you can do something else for me too?"

He scratched his arm, "Sure, Bella. What is it?"

I smiled, "Can you tattoo a name on the back of my neck please."

"Sure sure." He said and got me to spell the name. which wasn't hard. Then he free handed the three letters onto the back of my neck and tattooed them in a nice fancy script.

"Don't you think it's a bit early to get his name tattooed on your skin. You two could break up at anytime." Kyle frowned unimpressed. I knew that they wouldn't understand anyway. How could I expect them to think that Sam and I will always be together. They didn't know about soulmates at all.

"No. Sam and I will be together for the rest of our lives." I shrugged.

They all raised their eyebrows, "Isn't that a little naive?" Landon muttered.

"For some maybe, but I don't expect you to understand."

Luke shrugged, "Well, if you do break up at least you know that you have us."

I rolled my eyes but smiled thankfully anyways. "I'll keep that in mind." I saw Landon watching me out of the corner of his eye.

"Right, I'm all done here." Tony's voice came from behind me.

My lips curved into a smile, "Great." I took the hand mirror that he was holding out for me and headed back to the large mirror against the wall. I checked the tattoo on my neck and smiled as I saw my soulmates name on my skin. Forever. A brand of sorts. Sam will be happy, that's for sure.

"Its wonderful." I stated as he covered the tattoo's. "How much do I owe you?"

Tony smiled and took me to the counter before giving me the price. I was expecting it to be around that amount so it didn't bother me. Although he looked a little embarrassed for some reason.

I paid him and then waited in the seating area for the guys to finish. I looked out of the window and started people watching. The things you see when you pay attention are amazing.

"Ready?"

I jumped when Colton's voice sounded in my ear. All the guys laughed at me as I stuck my tongue out at them.

"In your own world there?" Luke teased.

"Yeah, I was actually. Ok lets see those tats." I grinned.

Colton's was easy to see as he still had his shirt off. From shoulder to wrist of his right arm was decorated with a swirling tribal design. It was amazing. All black, standing out against his olive skin.

Archers back held the outline of a large Japanese style dragon. "I'm going to come back to get it finished in about a week. But it doesn't look so bad like this."

"Its going to be great though. Are you going to have it in colour?" I asked.

He nodded, "Yeah."

"Bet it cost a lot." I chuckled.

His eyes shone mischievously, "Yeah but hey, its worth it in the end."

Once everything was paid for we headed out and to the car. "Lets grab something to eat." Landon suggested, running a hand through his hair.

I rubbed my stomach, "Yes please. Im starving." I muttered, my stomach rumbling to back me up.

We drove to McDonald's and ordered a shed load of food. We sat down and started to eat. I think I ordered a lot more then the boys but I didn't care at all. I was hungry.

"So are you going to come to the karaoke night at the café?" I asked the boys as we stuffed our faces.

They all nodded, "Hell yeah, we want to see everyone make a fool of themselves." Archer laughed.

I scoffed, "You guys are so singing."

"No, no, no, no!" Kyle shook his head vehemently. "No!"

I raised an eyebrow, "W.I.M.P. what does it spell…KYLE!" I sung before I chomped down on my Big Mac.

"I know I cant sing, so im not putting people through that. Its not being wimpy, its being thoughtful."

I giggled, "Yeah sure."

"I take it everyone you know is going to be there." Luke said, raisin an eyebrow and fiddling with the piercings in his ear again.

I nodded, "My guys are going to be there, sure."

"Even Sam?" Colton asked.

"Yes. Why?"

"No reason." they said in unison.

I looked between them all suspiciously. "Just don't piss him off. I'll just have to deal with it when we get home."

"What do you mean? when we get home." Landon said.

I sipped at my diet coke, "Sam and I live together now."

They all frowned, "I thought we were just picking you up at his house. We didn't know that it was your house too." Kyle muttered.

I nodded, "Yeah. I moved in last week. He had been bugging me about it for a while, so he was happy." I grinned.

Landon sighed, "What about you? Do you like it?"

"I didn't think I would but I do. I love being close to him and sharing a place."

"Must be weird. Your only seventeen."

"Yeah, it is a little. But hey, I know its meant to be." I popped a fry in my mouth. "Anyways, its my birthday in just over a month."

"Yeah but your still young. We just want you to be able to enjoy life a little." Archer shrugged.

I sighed, "Guys, this has been the best few months of my life. I'm enjoying myself immensely. And I can continue to do that with Sam. Okay?"

They all grumbled, "Okay." simultaneously.

Once we were finished we did a little shopping. Running around with the guys was fun. They were kinda like brothers, not as close as the guys in the pack are but still. They were people that I trusted. I bought some jewellery and a pair of high top sneakers that were a glittery purple.

Afterwards we drove home and I got Landon to drop me off in front of Jake's place. I jumped out and grabbed my bags. "Bye guys, thanks for today."

"Bye Bells." They all called.

I turned and skipped up to Jake's front door, it was already unlocked so I opened it and went inside. Strolling into the living room I came to a stop when I saw that Jake and Edward were sitting on the couch. One at either end, their legs folded up so that they were facing each other, their shins touching as they sat there.

Edward looking spotless, of course, he was wearing an emerald shirt and black slacks. His snow white skin was flawless and smooth, peaking out from the bottom of his shirt as it rode up a little with the way he was sitting. He ran a hand through his copper locks and smiled at me.

Jacob was shirtless, his tan, ripped chest and abs on show. I don't know how Edward could resist. He must be a bloody saint. I noticed, with shock, that Jake's long hair was gone, replace with short choppy locks similar to that of Sam's when we first met. He looked good.

"I wasn't interrupting was I?" I asked guiltily.

Edward shook his head, "Of course not." he grinned.

If there was one thing that I noticed about Edward now, it was his attitude change. He was so much more nicer. He smiled a lot. And that was something. He also spoke a lot more and it was more interesting. Funny how something like finding the person that was made for you changes you even if you haven't acted in a romantic way with them yet.

"Come in and sit down." Jacob said.

I did, sitting in the arm chair. "Nice haircut." I smiled.

Jake ran a hand through his chopped tresses. "Thanks, Edward did it."

I raised an eyebrow in shock, "You did?"

The copper head nodded, "Yeah, Esme taught me a few things during the boring days."

"Cool."

"So what did you do today?" Jake asked.

I smiled and shook my bags, "Did some shopping with Landon and the boys." I chucked him my bags and he rifled through them, pulling out the shoes I bought and giving a low whistle.

"Nice." he said.

"Hey, we need to do something together soon. Its been ages." I pouted.

"Lets go to the movies…catch a film. Lets do it Friday." My best friend smirked.

"Have you two gone out yet?" I asked, "You do you just hang out here or at Edwards?"

"We're going to the beach together tomorrow." Edward beamed, his topaz eyes bright and happy. I couldn't help but smile back. It was something about the vampires loved up mood that made me want to jump around and dance. It was infectious.

"That'll be cool. Maybe you should come to the karaoke night at the café with us." I mentioned.

Jacobs chocolate eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded, "You should. It will be really fun."

Chucking, the vampire licked his bottom lip, "Yeah, it sounds great. Maybe I'll even sing."

"That would be cool…although it might take some shine off of other people. You vampire sure know how to do everything perfectly."

Edward's eye widened and he looked down, "Not everything." he mumbled and I had a feeling that he would be blushing if he could.

I cleared my throat, "I got a tattoo today." I announced.

Jacob's eyebrows rose. "Show us then." I got up and walked over to stand in front of them. I unbuttoned my skirt. "What are you doing?" Jake asked.

I rolled my eyes, "Showing you my tattoo." I pulled the covering off and let them see.

"Wow, Sam's going to love it." The male werewolf whistled appreciatively.

"I hope so. This is for him."

"What does it signify?" Edward asked.

Jake smiled at his imprint. "Sam is a black wolf and Bella is a white one. So these prints signify them together."

"Its very nice." I vamp said, touching the tattoo.

"What the hell is going on in here?"

The sharp, deep voice made me jump and whirl around to see Sam leaning against the door frame, thick arms crossed over his wide chest. I sighed. "You just ruined the surprise." I muttered.

He frowned, "Huh?"

"Come here, you big oaf." I tsked.

He walked over and raised an eyebrow. I turned to my side and pointed at my hip. He looked down, his face stoic. It took him a moment and then his lips started to curve. Then he gave me a huge smiled, cupped my face and landed a huge kiss on my lips.

"Its amazing." He mumbled against my lips before nipping my flesh and making me moan softly.

"I have another surprise for you later." I smiled.

He raised an eyebrow suggestively. "Oh really."

I slapped a hand against his chest. "Not that." I rolled my eyes.

He chuckled and nodded at Edward as I button my skirt back up. "Sorry for assuming you two were checking my Bella out."

The vampire chuckled, "No problem."

Jake on the other hand, sighed, "You are an idiot sometimes, you know that." he muttered towards our alpha.

Sam nodded, "Yeah yeah, I just know that I have a lot of competition."

"Not us." Jacob huffed, folding his arms over his chest.

"Yeah yeah, I get it."

Sighing, I flopped down in the armchair again. "Your early, I thought you'd be working for a lot longer."

Sam shrugged, "Nothing was happening, Charlie let me off early." he came and perched on the arm of the chair I was sitting in. "I went at grabbed some movies and came straight here."

"Why did you arrange to meet at my house?" Jacob questioned, frowning.

I smiled at him, "I told Sam that I was coming to see you."

Sam cleared his throat, "Yeah and now we are going to head home and have the night to ourselves."

"I'm not done talking yet." I sniffed. "Leah's scan soon."

Edward grinned, "That's got to be weird, huh. I never really understood why someone would want to see their child when it looked a lot like a tadpole."

We all chuckled, "All I know is that its going to be the most spoilt child ever." I said.

Jake scoffed, "Until you and Sam's first one comes along."

"Our children will have everything they want." Sam sighed happily.

I frowned, "No they wont, I will not raise spoilt kids thank you very much."

"Ok baby, but I still want them to be happy."

"They can be happy the way I was…with my family and friends."

Jake rolled his eyes, "Alright, children. You have a long time yet."

Sam grunted at that remark and I smirked. "Your right." I said to Jake.

He nodded, "Yes, I am."

His imprint slapped him on the chest, "Bighead." he laughed. Jakes smiled widened. And I was amazed by the light in his eyes as he looked at Edward. It was something that a lot of people take for granted but I was comforted by the knowledge that Jake would never be one of those people. And neither would I.

"Come on, lets go home and relax." Sam pouted.

I rolled my eyes and turned back to Edward and Jake. "See you two later." I smiled.

"Bye." they said in unison and then looked at each other with a little smile on their faces. It was sooo cute that I had to stop myself from aww-ing. I skipped over to my man and slid my hand into his. We walked out and started for home.

"So how was your day, sexy?" I asked, smirking.

He raised a dark eyebrow at me and licked his lips. "It wasn't too bad. A little boring without you there."

"Oh, sweet talk me, why don't you."

"Is it working?" he purred.

I chuckled, "It always works." I nibbled my lips as he swung our hands between us. "So what movie did you get?" I asked.

He smiled, "I got Drag Me To Hell and Sunshine Cleaning." he informed.

"Ooo, two movies. Sounds fun. We should stop off at the store and get some sugary food." I bounced.

He chuckled deeply, "Ok then, baby." We did just that. Stopping off at the store and heading inside. It was really quiet in there though. "What stuff do you want?" Sam asked me.

"Ice cream." I yipped and grabbed some Ben and Jerry's Chunky Monkey and Strawberry Cheesecake. Yum!

Sam grabbed some beer and a bag a twizzlers. We walked to the cashier, a spotty teenage boy with braces and a gummy smile. He winked at me as we set the stuff down for him to swipe. Sam saw the guy looking at me and cocked his head.

"Hey, get your job done. Don't be looking at my girl like that." he growled.

I smirked and rolled my eyes. He really overreacts to these things and even though it annoys me sometimes, he wouldn't be the same if he didn't do it.

He paid for the stuff and we were off again. "So, how was Edward and Jacob when you got there?" Sam asked me as we entered the house.

"They were just chatting. I don't think it'll be long now before we see some more development. Did you see the way they were looking at each other." I smiled, placing the shopping bags on the kitchen counter.

Sam nodded, "Of course, they are made for each other. It's a hard thing to resist."

"Your telling me." I muttered as I put the stuff away. I grabbed Sam a beer and cracked it opened. Handing it to him as I grabbed the phone. I ordered us some pizza and headed into the living room.

"So what was my other surprise?" Sam asked from his seat on the couch.

I grinned, "Ooo, I'll show you." I hopped over to him and turned around before sitting down in his lap.

"I'm liking this already." he growled erotically into my ear.

I giggled, "Well don't get your hopes up." I lifted my hair up to expose the back of my neck.

There was a deafening silence, making me bit my lip nervously. Sam's hands on my hips tightened and his breath fell against my skin.

"Wow baby." he breathed, "Thank you."

I turned in his lap to see his face. His eyes were a little watery. I leaned in to peck him on the lips. "I love you so much." I smiled softly, hope to relay my emotions.

He stroked my hair back and ran his teeth over his bottom lip. "You are so wonderful. What have I done to deserve you."

I smirked, "Oh, who knows." I teased.

He kissed me. Sweet, teasing kisses. Brushing our lips together. I wrapped my arms around his neck and mewled. It worked, and he gave in. Placing a hand on the back of my head and holding me to him as he plundered my mouth.

I didn't realise just how long we had been kissing until the doorbell went. I pulled away from Sam, hearing him groan in disappointment. I jumped up and headed towards the door opening it up and seeing that the pizza was here.

"Hiya, how much?" I asked as I took the boxes.

"Twenty-one, ninety-eight." the girl smiled.

I handed her the cash and closed the door. "Put the first film on will ya." I said as I headed to the kitchen for some plates.

I came back out and we sat together on the couch, me leaning against Sam as we watched the horror and ate our food. I loved doing this. Spending time with him like this.

Thinking back of Landon's comment about me being naive had me thinking. I knew I wasn't, as I knew that Sam was my soulmate and we were more cemented then other 'human' couples. But I felt sad that Landon and the boys will never know that. That they will continue to feel that I was acting silly or that they will never believe that there is one person that you belong to and that equally belongs to you.

I sat and wonder what I would have done this year without finding out about this life. Without having my Sam. It wouldn't have been interesting or life changing or fun.

And as I curled up with my man, my future husband and the future father of my children. I felt sorry for all those people out there who will never have what I have. And I felt even worse for those people who wanted it in a way that I didn't, yet doesn't have the chance.

I was lucky, extremely lucky. And I needed to embrace that more. I had the comfort of knowing that I never had to be alone again. And the idea of that made me smile.

As I curled up with my soulmate, I felt at home. And that was something that I would never take for granted.

A/N - I know, i know, its been way too long. I am so sorry. College and work have been really overwhelming and then i kind of lost motivation for this chapter. I found it really hard to complete this chap and its not as long as my normal ones. I also worry that its not as good as they usually are. I will work a lot harder to get the next chap better and a bit more interesting. REVIEW and tell me what you thought.

Kisses xxxx
