Soccer Championship and Celebrating
Bella's POV
It had been two weeks and Bella's soccer team was in the championship. She was happy and everyone was going to the big game. The last few weeks have been good for everyone. Bella and Jasper were still inseparable and growing closer over the days. Jasper still stayed over every night, and as a result Bella has only has a few nightmares before he was able to stop them. The families have grown a lot closer and Esme offered to watch Ryan during the school year and same for Bella and the twins after school. Charlie accepted and Ryan couldn't have been happier. Her and Jasper spent the mornings watching TV or just sitting in their meadow, then went to practice after lunch, then had some fun with the family. Bella was considering all the Cullen's her brothers and sisters, another mom and dad, she knew her brothers were thinking the same. She knew Charlie didn't mind Jasper sleeping over since she asked Edward to read his mind one morning he came over and he told her that her dad knew they weren't going to be doing anything and trusted Jasper. She was very happy her dad would allow Jasper sleeping over, let alone `sleeping' in the same bed as her. Jasper went a few times hunting while Bella was at practice or busy playing around the yard. She didn't mind him going since she knew he needed to hunt, but she still missed him while he was gone.
She was dreaming of lying under the stars in their meadow with Jasper. When she woke up with Jasper kissing her softly. "Morning sleepy head."
"Morning cowboy. Not that I don't love waking up in your arms and you kissing me, but why did you have to wake me up? I was having a great dream." She stretched and kissed Jasper again as he purred
"I woke you up this early my little angel because you have to get ready for the big game and I wanted to wake you nicely, unlike what Alice planned." He chuckled
She giggled and groaned. "How did the little pixie plan on waking me up Jazz?"
He kissed her soft again and she giggled. "You really don't wanna know Belle. So come on and get ready before she comes barging in and throws a hissy fit."
She kissed Jasper once more and hopped out of bed and turned and looked at him raising her eyebrow. "How can Alice come and wake me if she isn't here Jasper?"
She heard laughing from downstairs and Alice shouting "I've been here for a half hour already Bella, so get your butt moving."
Jasper chuckled and she walked to the bathroom and Jasper went to get ready in one the other ones. She took her shower and came out in her jersey and her shorts under jogging pants. She smiled seeing Jasper in his cowboy boots, sexy black jeans and tight blue t-shirt.
She whistled as she walked over and hugged Jasper from behind. "Damn cowboy you look very hot in those jeans, do you know that?"
"Why thank you very much little angel, and you don't look bad yourself. Now let's get going little one." He led the way downstairs
They meet Alice and Edward in the living room. She eats some cereal and some orange juice. Then they walk out to Jaspers truck and hop in. he drives to the soccer field and they walk over to the family to wait for everyone else.
"Morning everyone." Bella, Jasper and Edward say and she hugs everyone
"Morning kids. Did you get all the rest you need for the game Bella?" Carlisle asked
"Yeah I did Carlisle. Where's my dad?" she looked around
"He went to get coffee and some juice. He will be back in a few minutes Bella." Esme assured her
"Cool. While we wait for everyone, do you guys wanna kick the ball around?" Bella asked grinning
They all nod and Bella, the boys and all the Cullen's go onto the field and start kicking a ball around. The rest of the team come out and join them. They play around for a half hour until Coach Chris comes out to the field and the Cullen's and her family walk over to their seats near the bench.
Coach Chris calls everyone over and they smile as they circle around him. "Alright kids, this is the last game and the most important one of the year. So let's get in a good practice before we play and have some fun."
They all nod and head to practice scoring against Mike. Mike blocks almost all their attempts but a few get past. The other team The Rhino's come on the field and start practicing as well.
After another half hour they stop practicing and go and head for some Gatorade and a snack. Bella smiles seeing her family passing out the drinks.
She hugs her dad and everyone, saving jasper for last. He grins and kisses her softly. "You were doing great out there Belle. I know you have a great chance of winning today."
"Thanks Jazz and I hope we do win. We've done so good this year and I know we can beat these guys." She hugs him tight
Jasper smiles and purrs against her hair. "You will win Belle and we'll have a celebration the celebrate the big win."
"That sounds good to me Jazz. Now be a good boy and watch the game. I love you." She smirks
He growls and kisses her soft. "I love you to Belle, and good luck angel."
She gives him one last hug and finishes her Gatorade and walks by the rest her team. "Let's get going guys and win." She says smiling
The teams go to the field and start the game. The teams were evenly matched, and Bella and her teammates were having a hard time scoring on their goalie and same for them scoring on Mike. They were happy Jasper and his brothers had come and helped them out by teaching Mike some new ways to block and they were working. Bella decided to try some of the plays Emmett taught them the other day. She and Angela tried what was called the Victim play and Bella scored. They cheered and started playing again. No one scored for the rest of the half.
At the half they went over to the coach and had some Gatorade. Bella hugged Jasper and kissed him softly. "The ways you taught us the other day are helping Mike stop them from scoring."
Jasper smiled and hugged her again, "I knew they would Bella. The rest of you guys are doing great. Try a few of the ones you learned yesterday. They might help or confuse them."
"Thanks Jazz. I love you." She kissed him
Jasper kissed her back. "I love you to Belle."
She walked over to her team and they walked back to the field. They started playing again and no one scored in the third period. Bella and Angela tried some more of Jaspers plays and scored a second goal. Lauren scored with two minutes to go and no one had scored on Mike yet. They started playing harder but no one was having any luck scoring on either team. The game ended them winning 3-0. Everyone cheered and shook hands with the other team and went back to the bench.
Bella hugged everyone and kissed Jasper few times. "Congrats Belle, you were great out there today." He kissed her again
"Thanks Jazz. I had a lot of fun and I'm happy you were here watching me play and win." Bella smiled as he purred against her hair
"It was my pleasure my angel. I loved watching you play and so did major." She giggled
"Is that why you looked viscous when that boy knocked me over earlier?" she laughed as he chuckled
"Yes that's exactly when he came out to play. Plus he wanted to see you play also. He loved watching you and if he hadn't apologized Major was gonna have to…" she cut him off
"The boy didn't mean to Jazz, so Major better leave him alone or I won't speak to him for an entire week." She said and he pouted
"Please don't do that Bella. He promises to behave just don't ignore him that long." She grinned
"I won't as long as he behaves himself." she kissed Jasper and they walked over to everyone
Jasper wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed along her neck purring. "He promises."
Coach Chris smiles and hands out the trophies and shakes the team's hands. Carlisle grins and announces "We're having a celebration party for you kids at our place at 3pm, so come and celebrate everyone."
All the team says they will be there and head off. Bella hugs everyone again and yawns.
"Let's get going Bella. You can nap before the party." Jasper said and holds her hand as they walk to his truck
They all drive to the Cullen's and head inside. Esme started to make the food for later, everyone else sits around the living room. Bella goes and changes into some jogging pants and a t-shirt, and joined everyone else. She curled up in Jaspers lap and rested her head on his chest.
Jasper rubbed her back and held her close. "Take a nap my angel, you deserve it."
"Mmk Jazz. Wake me before the team gets here." She nuzzled her head on his chest and falls asleep
A few hours later she wakes up to Jasper kissing her forehead and purring. "Time to wake up angel."
She groans half asleep and mumbles "Five more minutes please."
Alice came standing next to her and whispered in her ear. "Your friends will be here in fifteen minutes Bella, so if you want to greet them, you better go and get ready."
Bella groans and nuzzled her face against Jaspers chest. "Give me five minutes Ali or I won't go shopping with you or talk to you for an entire week."
Alice pouts but walks into the kitchen and Jasper chuckled. "Come on angel, you can come and change in our room." He whispered the last two words
"Mmk cowboy but you owe me some more sleeping right here later." She groaned as they walked to their room
She changed into some jeans and a team t-shirt, and Jasper was in jeans and tight blue muscle shirt. They walked downstairs and into the backyard. Carlisle and Charlie were at the grill cooking some burgers and hotdogs. They had cleared the yard and moved a few picnic tables on the deck.
Bella hugged her dad, Esme and Carlisle. "Thanks for this dad, Esme, Carlisle."
They hugged her back and Carlisle smiled "It's no problem Bella, you kids deserve this for all the hard work this season."
"So when is everyone going to be here?" she asked grabbing some coke
"They should be here in ten minutes Bells." Charlie said sipping his own coke
She went over by where Emmett, Edward and the twins were.
"What you munchkins up to?" she grins
"Just talking about the game Bella. You were great today and deserved the win." Edward said hugging her
"Yeah you did Bella. Are you going to play on the schools team this year?" Emmett grinned
"I don't know yet Emmett, maybe. Where's Alice and Rose?" she looked around
"Upstairs I think. I think Alice is mad at you. Why would she be mad at you Bells?" Emmett asked
"That's because I said if she didn't give me five more minutes I wouldn't talk or go shopping with her for a week." She giggled
"That would definitely make her mad. So what shall us kids be doing today?" Emmett grinned
"I don't know Emmett. I think just cookout, hangout and play around I guess." She rolled her eyes
Ten minutes later everyone came into the backyard. They grabbed some soda and chips while waiting for the food to finish.
"You were great today Mike." Edward pointed out and high fiving Mike
"Thanks Edward. We all did great and I can't wait to see how we do in school."
"How do you know what happens during the school year Mike?" Edward asked curious
"Coach is the assistant coach for the freshman at the high school team as well. He's going to talk to the other coach about us. Do you remember that big guy that was at our last few games talking to coach a lot?" mike grinned
"Yeah I remember him. What's he got to do with everything?" Bella raised her eyebrow
"That was the head coach for the freshman. The one talking with him and coach was the coach for JV team. So I bet they loved our games and hopefully that's good for us when we try out for the team." Everyone agreed
"That's awesome and we will make the team I'm sure." Angela said confidently
Carlisle and Charlie finished with the food on the grill and everyone started eating. The Cullen's ate very little, only some very rare burgers. After eating everyone went into the yard and played some soccer. It was Bella and the team verses the Cullen's, and the twins. They were almost evenly matched but the Cullen team won by two goals. Everyone took a break and went and had some ice cream and soda. Ryan was sitting in Emmett's lap and Bella was in Jaspers.
Mike came over and gave her a coke. "This has been a lot fun Bella. You think we're going to have a good rest of the summer?"
"Yeah I think so Mike. What are your plans for the last few weeks of the summer?" Bella asked
"I'm going to California for a week with my family. What about you guys?" mike smiled
"I don't know yet."
Everyone played some more soccer and some baseball. They hung around and had some pizza for dinner and everyone went home except Charlie, Bella and the boys.
Jasper's POV
"Can the kids stay here tonight Esme? I got to work early and their already here." Charlie asked walking over to Esme and Carlisle
"That's fine with us Charlie. You look tired so go home and get some rest and we'll see you tomorrow after work." Esme reassured Charlie
"Thanks Esme. You kids behave and I will see and call you tomorrow." Charlie hugged everyone and left
"Let's go watch some TV guys." Edward suggested
They walked inside and sat in the living room. Bella had fell asleep right before Charlie left and he still was holding her in his arms. He was sitting next to Esme and Carlisle on the couch watching some cartoon. The twins and Ryan were laying on their stomachs in front of the couch.
"I know something we all could do for the remainder of the summer Carlisle." Emmett said giddy
"What's that Emmett?" Carlisle said
"We could spend some time together at the beach house all of us."
"That sounds like a good idea Emmett. Do you see any problems with that Alice?" Carlisle looked at Alice
Alice looks into the future and smiles "I don't see anything going bad and Charlie is able to come as well. We will have a lot fun to, everyone will love it there."
"Good" Emmett said and Edward rolled his eyes
They watched TV until Jasper took Bella to their room and laid them down, he tucked the blanket around them and she snuggled closer to him and he smiled. He heard Esme and Emmett putting the boys to bed. He laid there just thinking about the day and happy Bella's team won and that she was happy. He knew Major wasn't happy with the boy but knew Bella was serious about not talking to major if he had done anything to the boy. Major just rolled his eyes and laughed, he wasn't scared of the boy but didn't wanna piss his mate off.
