I was putting my dishes in the sink when the front door opened.
"Hey Jas." Isa said quietly as she walked into the kitchen.
"Hey baby." I said kissing her softly. "How was the show?"
She shrugged as she pulled out a water bottle from the fridge. "It was good I guess. You know how me and Vic are during shows."
"So turnout was good?"
"Yeah. Why are you still awake?"
"I was eating and then Copeland woke up."
She hummed as I pulled her to me. "Come on I wanna go shower. Can we cuddle tonight?" she asked pulling me up the stairs behind her.
"On the couch sure." I said laying Copeland in between Seth and Melysah. "Do you see my bed?"
"Why is Seth up here?" she asked sitting on my lap when I sat on the couch.
"He fell asleep crying because I had Lysah and he didn't want ma to hold him." I told her. "But I put him in his room."
"You look so confused." She laughed. "I'm gonna go shower."
"I'll be here."
While she showered, I took out my piercings and cleaned up my room some.
I walked into the bathroom to brush my teeth as she came out of the shower.
She sniffled and groaned. "I'm going to cry if Vic got me sick tonight." She whined pulling on a thong and bra.
"Poor thing. You'll be fine."
She rolled her eyes at me as she brushed her teeth.
She pulled on one of my V-neck shirts when she finished and I leaned against the face basin.
"So you have three adorable babies in your bed and we're both tired." She said braiding her straight hair down her back.
"What does that have to do with anything?"
"I wanna cuddle; can't do that on the couch."
I followed her into my room and pulled her to sit on my lap as I fell onto a bean bag.
"Let's cuddle then." I said as she turned on the TV.
"There are reasons I love you." She sighed burrowing into my arms as I hid in her hair.
"Like what?"
"The fact that you cuddle so nicely." She sighed as I tightened my arms around her. "And without complaint."
I laughed and kissed her neck. "We have to read that letter." I told her quietly.
"Reach for it."
I grabbed it off the TV stand and handed it to her.
She sighed as she opened it. "To Isa and Jay. I know this is possibly the biggest surprise ever but I can't take care of Melysah anymore. Rather than sending her to the orphanage or to a foster home, I figured I'd send her to people she already knows. I know life for the two of you is hectic, but I think that Lysah would be a great source of balance and patience for the both of you. Isa, you are an absolute doll and I couldn't have picked a better god mother for my, well your daughter. I know being a mother is high on your to do list despite everything you've gone through and it's only second to what you do now. Jasper, I knew from the moment I met you and saw how you interacted with both Isa and Melysah that you were a perfect match for Isa and someday you would make an amazing father. I don't know you as well as I know Isa but if I know Isa as well as I think I do, I know that you would be the best father to Melysah, if only because it's the right thing to do. All the paperwork has been done and I now have no more legal rights to her. As of today, whatever day you get this letter, you are the proud parents of Melysah Maliyah Whitlock. Love, Mely."
"Congratulations." I said against her cheek. "It's a girl."
"Your child too." She laughed pushing my face away from hers.
Her stomach growled causing me to laugh. "You should eat."
"You should sleep."
"You know I won't."
IPOV
I frowned at Jasper as I stood up. "You should still try. I need my baby well rested; you're singing with me at the acoustic show tomorrow night."
I walked out of the room before he could reply. I danced into the kitchen and pulled out some of the left over vegetarian lasagna.
As I made my plate, he stepped up behind me and wrapped his arms around me. I put down the spoon I had in my hand as we stood in silence for a few.
"I love you." He said in my ear.
"Jas-" I started before he cut me off.
"Turn around." He asked.
I turned and looked into his grey eyes.
He pushed some stray hair behind my ear as he looked at me.
"Prometto di sempre si solleva quando si sente giù. Prometto di asciugare le tue lacrime quando sentite il bisogno di piangere. Prometto di tenervi sorridere per mostrare quel bel sorriso che hai. Prometto di essere la vostra forza ogni volta che si cade debole. Prometto di essere la tua voce, quando non si riesce a trovare le parole. Prometto di sempre dire ciò che è reale quando si vuole ascoltare la verità. Prometto di essere il tuo acchiappasogni per scacciare sei ogni paura. Prometto di essere il tuo sorriso quando si è accigliato. Prometto di sempre tirarti su quando si è giù e blu. Prometto di darvi fede quando si sente insicuro. Prometto di tenervi robusto quando si sente sicuro. Prometto di ascoltare quando hai bisogno di parlare. Prometto di dirti non è solo ciò che è vero. Prometto di dare sempre la mia spalla per quando si ha bisogno di piangere. Prometto di sempre stringerti quando hai bisogno di qualcuno. Prometto di cura sempre per te, ovunque tu sia io prometto di essere sempre lì. Prometto di non farti del male e non rompere il vostro cuore. Non posso promettere il mondo. Non posso promettere il cielo. Non posso promettere che non riusciremo mai a combattere. Non posso promettere che non potrò mai piangere. Ma posso promettere che sarò sempre fedele a te. E il bambino ti prometto che sarò sempre ti amo più di ogni altra cosa con tutto il cuore, non importa ciò che accade o ciò che passare attraverso, piccola ti amerò fino alla fine dei tempi!" He said smoothly.
I mentally translated it. I promise to always lift you up when you are feeling down. I promise to wipe your tears when you feel you need to cry. I promise to keep you smiling to show off that beautiful smile you have. I promise to be your strength whenever you fall weak. I promise to be your voice, when you can't find the words. I promise to always tell you what's real when you want to hear the truth. I promise to be your dream catcher to chase away your every fear. I promise to be your smile when you're frowning. I promise to always cheer you up when you are down and blue. I promise to give you faith when you are feeling insecure. I promise to keep you sturdy when you are feeling unsafe. I promise to listen when you need to talk. I promise to tell you no lies just what is true. I promise to always lend you my shoulder for when you need to cry. I promise to always hold you when you need someone. I promise to always care for you wherever you are I promise to always be there. I promise to never hurt you and never break your heart. I can't promise you the world. I can't promise you the sky. I can't promise you that we will never fight. I can't promise you that I will never cry. But I can promise you that I will always be true to you. And baby I promise that I will always love you more than anything with all my heart, no matter what happens or what we go through, baby I'll love you until the end of time!
He wiped away tears I didn't know had fallen. "Isabella you are the most important person in my life and I love you so fucking much it's ridiculous. I would wait forever and a day to marry you, as long as you let me show you how much you mean to me."
"Jasper. I love you too. So fucking much I can't even put it into words-"
The rest of my sentence was cut off by his warm lips against mine. I quickly overcame my momentary shock and threw my arms around his neck, stretching up to reach him. His lips were soft and smooth against mine.
Our kiss grew deeper with his tongue sweeping across my lip. I opened my mouth to him. He moaned into my mouth and pulled me closer than ever before.
He lifted me and set me on the counter. My bare legs wrapped around him and I moan when his crotch comes into contact with mine. I can feel how hard his is and all I can think about is how fast I can get him out of his sweats and inside me.
I moved my hands from his neck and down his back to the waistband of his pants. I feel his breath heat the skin of my neck as he kisses his way across my jaw.
I slipped my hand under the waistband and smirked up at him when I felt skin.
"Copeland started crying." He said against my cheek.
I waste no time pulling him out and stroking him soundly. His moaned out and buried his face in my neck to muffle the sound. His hands moved up my bare thighs and under my T-shirt. He fingered the lace and moved one of his hands over my soaked crotch. He rubbed firmly as he moved his mouth back to mine.
I continued to stroke him slowly as he moved his hand against me. It felt so good but I needed more.
I pulled my mouth from his gasping for air. "Jas please. I need it."
His hand continued to move as I removed my hand from him and gripped the counter. I threw my head back and couldn't do anything at the moment but rock my hips against his hand.
"What do you need, love?" He asked in a low husky whisper, his accent full blast.
"Oh my god." I moan out biting my lip. "Please."
His hand stops but before I could complain he moved my thong to the side and had the tip of his cock right at my opening.
He slid in quickly, filling me up and crashing his mouth to mine in an attempt to silence my groan.
He kissed his way down my neck as my lips found the skin behind his ear. He moved my legs up at a higher angle and draped them over his elbows. I tightened my hold on his hair and bit my lip harder.
He drilled into me, skin slapping skin. Through his pounding my body trembled through the aftershocks of my orgasm. His hips faltered and after a few more thrusts he moans deeply biting my neck as he came inside me.
We stayed like that for a few both of us catching out breaths. He slipped out of me and I slumped against the counter.
I can't feel my legs. That being said Jasper is going to have to carry me back up stairs.
"I can't feel my legs." I said in his ear.
He laughed a deep throaty in my ear. "Oh about that."
"Don't be an ass." I huffed pushing him away from me.
"Aw don't be mad." He grinned pulling me to him.
He fixed his pants and kisses my neck. He rubbed his hands up and down my thighs, massaging the muscles. The feeling came back but they still felt like jelly.
"Jas take me upstairs." I sighed pushing my hair from my face.
He nodded and effortlessly lifted me into his arms. He walked easily up the stairs and dropped us on the couch in his room.
I changed thongs as Jasper changed pants before we lay down to watch TV.
Copeland started crying and I slipped away from Jas. "I got her."
I quickly fed and changed her before putting her to lie down again.
I lay back with Jasper and he draped his arm over my waist. With his chest to my back I listened to his breathing as it slowed.
"I love you Isabella." He said softly before falling asleep.
I watched TV for a bit unable to fall asleep. I never slept after live shows, too amped up on the coffee I had to stay awake.
Around 6:15 Copeland and Melysah started crying softly. I slipped away from Jasper and covered him with a light blanket.
I held Copeland as I calmed Melysah. I quickly gave Copeland a bath and fed her before setting her on the bed next to Seth with a toy.
I showered Melysah and fed her before lying on the bed with her Seth and Copeland.
When Seth woke up I sent him to brush his teeth.
"I want Jas." He whined.
"Look here little bit Jasper just went to sleep not too long ago." I said to him. "Go shower and brush your teeth and when he wakes up he'll play with you."
My phone buzzed as I was playing quietly with the girls.
"Hey." I answered quietly lifting both girls onto my hips and walking down stairs shutting the door behind me.
"Girly." Kellin coughed out. "How was Copeland?"
"As far as I know she was fine. Jas is still sleeping though." I said to him. "Seth do not go upstairs." I called to him when he walked out of his room.
"John is on his way over for her; Katelynn is feeling better."
"Alright she's showered and fed already; I'll have her bag ready."
"Thanks girly."
"Not a problem Hun. Feel better."
"Hopefully. I'm coming to the show tonight."
I hummed as I sat Seth at the table with a bowl of cereal. "Sounds good. I'll see you there."
"Later girly."
I hung up and set my phone on the counter.
"Copeland's bag." I mumbled to myself. Fuck. "Seth are you gonna be ok for a little bit while I run upstairs?" I asked.
He nodded and ate a spoonful of Frosted Flakes. I put Melysah on the floor with a toy and ran up the stairs with Copeland to grab her bag.
I found it quickly and shut Jasper's door. I walked back downstairs stopping at Rosalie's door.
"Rosalie I'd wake up." I called banging on the door.
I started making breakfast when I walked back into the kitchen.
I made waffles eggs bacon sausages and I cut up some fruit. I set some on a plate for Seth and went to wake up Lillian.
I lifted Copeland off the floor and walked to Li's room.
"Mama Li time to wake up." I said knocking on the door.
I walked back in the kitchen and made her plate, putting it in the food warmer before walking up to Rose's room.
"Little girl. It's 7:10." I shouted.
"I'm coming." She called back.
I tickled Copeland as I walked back down stairs. The doorbell rang and I opened it grabbing Copeland's bag.
"Good morning Isa." John said taking her from me.
"Good morning John." I said kissing his cheek and holding out her bag.
"I'll see you later."
I waved and shut the door.
"Rosalie, stop."
I walked into the kitchen and shook my head sighing. "Rosalie, leave Seth alone and go to school."
She huffed and rolled her eyes at me before leaving.
Li walked into the kitchen. "Good morning."
"Morning mommy." Seth said happily munching his fruits.
"Morning." I said from the floor with Lysah.
"Where's Jasper?" she asked taking her food from the warmer.
"Sleeping." I answered standing. "He went to sleep a few hours ago." I said glancing at his watch on my wrist.
"Seth, are you going to school?" she asked him.
He shrugged. "I guess not."
"You wanna come to work with me?"
He nodded excitedly. "Yeah."
"Go get changed." She laughed.
I laughed quietly and yawned.
"Did you sleep?" Li asked me as she ate.
"Not yet. I couldn't sleep last night." I said shrugging. "It's just me Jas and Lys today."
"I'll take Melysah with me."
I shrugged again and pushed my braid over my shoulder and pulled down my shirt. "I'll be fine."
"Give her to me and go pack her bag." She said taking Lysah from me. "Now girl."
I sighed and ran upstairs to get her bag. "Here." I said handing her the bag.
"Thank you. I'll see you at 10."
I nodded and started to clean the kitchen as she left with Seth and Melysah.
I finished and went upstairs. I walked into the room and sighed falling heavily onto the bed.
My vagina hurt and I was tired and I just wanted to shower and cuddle with Jas.
I went to take a shower and brush my teeth again.
I walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel and feeling clean. I sat in front of Jasper on the couch and flipped through the channels.
I leaned against his chest when I felt him wrap his arms around me.
"I thought you were asleep." I said redoing my hair.
"I was and then you weren't here."
"The kids woke up." I said lying down. "I had to feed them and make sure they were clean."
"Where are they?"
"John came for Copeland and Li took Lysah and Seth." I said kissing his cheek. "Good morning by the way." I started to sit up.
"Good morning." He said kissing my wet hair. "Where are you going?"
"To get dressed." I said pulling away. "Li told me I had to sleep." I called from the closet.
"Great, I wanna sleep." He said yawning. "Come here."
"I'm coming." I said as I pulled on a shirt.
I jumped on the bed next to him and laid my head on his chest.
"What are the plans for today?" he asked quietly.
"My Unplugged is at 9." I said shrugging. "Until then Li told me to sleep."
"No coffee tonight?"
"I have to have something but it won't be my usual mocha."
He gasped and turned my face to his. "Isabella. My Iz. Where are you?" he asked with false shock. "Where has my love gone?"
"Fuck you Jasper." I laughed pushing his hand away and nuzzling into his side. "My mocha was the reason I couldn't sleep."
He hummed and started playing with my hair. "We also only had 2 hours of sleep the night before but if you say so."
I yawned. "Go to fucking sleep."
JPOV
I laughed as she drifted off to sleep. I shifted her off of me and went to use the bathroom.
When I lay on the bed she immediately rolled to face me. I smiled softly as I pulled her to me.
I buried my face in her neck and fell asleep peacefully.
I'm marrying the love of my life and she indirectly gave me everything I ever wanted, just by being her; I couldn't love her more if I tried.
