BEFORE THE CLEARWATER'S

CHAPTER 14

SAVANNAH P.O.V

I was annoyed. I knew I was. At least I was self aware. I had gotten my period and Seth had been teasing me all day. I didn't appreciate it so I sent him to his place to start cleaning out space for my things. We had both decided that we would use the guest bedroom closet for all of my clothes. That closet was smaller than the one I own now so I was going to have to give some things away.

"I'm sure once you're married you're going to buy a house anyway." It was weird to think about. I was going to be living with Seth. We were getting married.

"Do you really think I'm ready for this?" I asked mom as she helped me pack.

"It's not up to me if you're ready." She commented. "Do you not want to move?"

"No I do. It's so scary. What happened when you and dad moved in together?"

"I had the exact same feelings you did. And he was younger than me. I was scared. I wasn't sure if we were going to be able to pay for the place we wanted. We both worked but it was still weird. Not living with my dad. Instead of making my dad dinner every night, I was cooking for your dad."

"Did you move in when you got engaged?"

"No. We didn't move in together until we were married." She confirmed. "It was easier that way. We saved money and then pooled it together to buy a little place. Similar to Billy's. But only one bedroom. When we got pregnant the first time, thats when the Cullen's offered to build us a place." She confirmed.

"That was nice of them." I commented as I grabbed a few dresses that I wouldn't be wearing in February and packed them into a box.

"It was. I know it didn't work out between Edward and I but they're still very protective of me." Mom helped me with washing sheets and packing things away. "This is a good thing." She commented. I started to wonder if my silence was deafening to her.

"I know I'm just scared. He has our entire life planned out."

"Honey, he doesn't have anything planned." She commented. "He's just as clueless as you." I nodded and breathed in. I had no idea what I was doing and I was panicking. I knew I shouldn't be, I loved Seth with every fiber of my being but I was scared.

*SETH P.O.V*

While Savannah packed her room up, I was cleaning out space in the guest bedroom closet for her clothes. Jacob was downstairs raiding my fridge. He was suppose to be helping me.

"Hey, are you and Savannah being safe?" I groaned. How many more times was I going to have this conversation? First my mom, now Jake. I'm sure Bella would be asking me soon too.

"Why don't you ask her?"

"Cause that's weird."

"Well what if I said no?" I asked him. Of course she was protected but I wasn't going to be the one who told him that she was on birth control. That was a need to know thing for him.

"I think if she get's pregnant before you're married that I'll be a little upset."

"Then yes we're protecting ourselves." I commented hanging up a few of her shirt that were already here. "You don't need to worry about that. Trust me." I commented. He had obviously seen everything in my thoughts. I'm sure he tried to block it out but sometimes it was difficult. I can't even tell you how many times I've seen Bella naked in his mind. It was so weird.

"And please try to be quieter at night." He commented patting me on the back.

"You won't have to worry about that for much longer either."

"You know I will murder you if you hurt her again right?"

"I know."

"Do you have any plans for Valentines Day?"

"I was thinking of taking her to the beach but it's suppose to snow so maybe just dinner or something." I shrugged. "I just proposed what more does she need?" I asked making him laugh.

"Oh Seth." He chuckled. "We should head back and help them out." He commented.

"He's cranky today."

"I'm sure your stupid face will make her feel better." I rolled my eyes but followed him out the front door. Instead of taking the cars, we ran. Running was always faster than taking a car. The house was quiet when we walked in.

"Where is she?"

"Sleeping." Bella commented. "Want something to eat?" She asked but I ignored the question and right away went up the stairs. She was sleeping curled up on her side under the covers. I smiled but quickly took my shoes off and got into the bed behind her. I wrapped my arm around her waist and rested it on her stomach. She hummed before moving her body back into mine.

"I love you." I whispered in her ear kissing the back of her head.

"Love you." She mumbled before quickly falling asleep again. She was the love of my life.

*JACOB P.O.V*

"She's gonna be gone so soon. It's going to be strange." I commented to Bella as I picked up Finn and rested him on my chest. He was growing like a weed.

"I know but she's not a little kid anymore." I sighed. We had this conversation nearly everyday now.

"I know that but it's still difficult."

"I think she's having a hard time." She commented as she cleaned up the kitchen. "I could tell that she was scared to move out. I mean obviously it's scary for anyone but I think for her it's like so final. He's it for her. For the rest of their lives."

"Did you feel like that?"

"Of course I did. We didn't exactly have the funds to be getting married and starting a family." She commented.

"I took care of you perfectly fine."

"I know you did but I worried. I knew money was tight. We barely could afford the house we wanted until we figured out stocks that Alice helped us with."

"And we're fine aren't we?" I asked. She shook her head but sat on my other knee that Finn wasn't resting on.

"Yes." She kissed me.

"So, can we get a babysitter for Valentine's Day?" I questioned.

"Yeah. That's probably a good idea." I looked up the stairs. "They probably have plans right?" She asked. I nodded. "What does he have planned?"

"Dinner." I shrugged. Hopefully he would come up with some better idea's because once you have kids you're lucky if you even get to go to dinner for a few hours.

"That's it?"

"So far."

"She deserves more than that."

"Honey, you gotta remember they're still young. And they have a wedding coming up."

"She said she wants to get married in May."

"What? That's so soon."

"Not this May. Next." She confirmed. "She wants plenty of time to plan and to live with Seth. Having a boyfriend and living with him are two different things. It's a big adjustment." I remember the days. I had been trying to convince Bella to move in with me for nearly a year before she finally agreed that once we were married she would. I had found us a little house and bought it so that we could live there but she refused until we were married.

"You know, I'm really glad it's Seth and not one of those other crackheads." I laughed. "Like thank god."

"He really does love her." Bella commented. I nodded. "And she loves him."

*SAVANNAH P.O.V*

That night we ate dinner with my parents but decided to sleep at Seth's. I was pretty uncomfortable but that didn't stop Seth from feeling me up in the car.

"We really can't." I commented.

"We still can. I have a shower." He commented as I drove and he ran his hands over my stomach and chest.

"That's disgusting." I commented parking in the spot next to his car.

"It's really not that gross." He shrugged. "It's normal for everyone. And I've heard that it really helps with cramps." I sighed at his words. I turned the car off before looking at him. He was looking back at me, his eyes wide waiting for my response.

"I'm going to shower." I commented rushing out of the car and heading up to his bathroom. Very soon my things would be overflowing the counter in here. I locked the door before he could get in so that I could handle myself before letting him in. He didn't need to see the disgusting side of it all.

"C'mon, babygirl. Let me in." I giggled as I turned the water on, stripped of my clothes, went to the bathroom, flushed what I needed to, then opened the door for him. My boobs were more round and swollen and as soon as his hands touched me, I hissed. "Sensitive today." He smirked before closing the door behind him and helping me into the shower.

"Please." I whined. He lifted me up and resting my back against the cool tile. He pressed his lower half into mine just enough so I could feel how hard he was but he didn't enter me. "Please." I begged again. His teeth grazed my nipples before finally pushing in. "Yes." I sighed content for having him this close to me. He held my hips as I rested against the tile and pushed myself down onto him.

He moved the shower head so that it was pointed directly onto where we met. I moaned as the water pelted my clit. It made everything feel ten times better with the water hitting us.

"Holy shit." Seth watched as I rocked my hips into his trying to get to my high. I had one hand on his chest trying to balance myself and the other in his hair tugging his face to mine to kiss him. I moaned into his mouth deepening the kiss trying to show him how much he was pleasing me.

"Fuck it feels so good." I moaned pulling him closer to my body. I bit down onto his shoulder trying to hide the moans that were threatening to scream out. I'm sure his neighbors hated us by now. His hand came down hard on my clit as he rubbed circles on it. "Oh yes!" I shouted throwing my head back before letting it rest on my shoulder as he thrust into me.

"I told you." He groaned into my neck as he left kisses on it. I had never felt him like this before and it was amazing. "I'm not wearing a condom."

"Fuck it who cares." I moaned. In the moment I didn't think of it but I was on my period, I'm sure it didn't matter by now. "Please." I was so close I just needed him to go harder and faster. My begging seemed to get him on the move as he thrust harder into me making me cry out. I clenched around him moaning shaking through my orgasm. I heard him muttering above me before his thrusts became sloppy and he shot inside me.

"Oh my god." He groaned into my neck. We stayed still for a few minutes as I raked my finger's through his wet hair. He carefully pulled out and turned to face the water while still holding me up. I knew my legs were not going to be able to hold my body up. He carefully set me down making sure I was steady before grabbing the soap to wash both of our bodies. "You're so beautiful." He commented running the bar of soap over my stomach.

"I can wash myself." I commented taking it from him. "And thank you." I smiled kissing him. "I love you." At that moment I realized how stupid I was being afraid to move in with him. He was the only thing I was ever going to need and I was perfect knowing that. I never wanted to be away from him. I wanted to wake up to him every morning and go to sleep next to him every night. "I am so ready to be with you for the rest of my life." I whispered. A human would not have been able to hear my voice over the shower but Seth heard it loud and clear.

He smiled at my words but stayed silent. I knew that neither one of us had the words to express to each other just how much the other meant. Until then we had the small touches.

"Are we going to write our own vows?" He questioned.

"I would like to." I smiled. Of course I was no where near being able to write anything down but I knew that I wanted him to write something just for me.

Right then, the bathroom door flung open. I knew I was covered by the shower curtain but I still covered my boobs as Seth stood in front of me.

"Seth?" Embry said.

"Jesus Christ. What do you want?"

"Caught scent of a vampire. None of the Cullen's." My eyes widened as he looked at me and quickly rinsed out his hair.

"Give me like ten minutes." He commented to Embry before stepping out of the shower and leaving me there. I quickly finished before stepping out and wrapping a towel around myself sliding my panties up my legs and making sure I wouldn't leak before stepping into the bedroom where both Seth and Embry were locking the windows.

"Stay in the the house. I will be back as soon as possible." Seth turned to me.

"Oi Oi!" Embry shouted behind him. Seth rolled his eyes.

"What if something happens?"

"Then call your mom." He commented kissing me. "Promise me you will stay inside."

"I promise." I commented holding the towel closer to my body.

"Go get dressed please." He commented before heading out the door. I heard the front door close and lock before I watched them both dart across the street and into the woods. I quickly got dressed before calling mom.

"I'm sure it's nothing, Honey. Don't panic. They often run through the land while just passing through." She tried to ease my mind but that wasn't going to help me. I tried to relax in bed but I was so panicked that he wasn't going to come home.

*SETH P.O.V*

"Colin! You're a real pain in my ass!" Jacob shouted.

"I caught scent of something! I didn't know who it was!" Colin fought back.

"Who was it?" I asked.

"The Denali's. The Cullen's cousins or whatever." Jacob commented. "Everyone is free to go." I didn't waste any time in running back to my girl.

"Sav? It's just me!" I shouted up the stairs going to the kitchen to get a snack before heading up the stairs. She was laying in bed on my side with the t.v on. "Excuse you." I commented getting into the bed and shoving her over.

"Who was it?" She asked cuddling into my side.

"Cullen's friends. You don't have to worry." I said kissing her head. "Colin is too stupid for his own good sometimes."

"He's a good kid."

"Not good enough for you." I looked over just in time for her to roll her eyes.

"He's just a friend." She commented.

"I'm just messing with you." When you grow up around all boys, you tend to be friends with them. I didn't really care who she became friends with. I knew she only had eyes for me. "Anyway, so May 2nd?" I asked.

"I think so yeah." She smiled. "Alice is writing up invitations and she started sending samples for flowers but other than that nothing has been planned or decided." She confirmed. "I'm doing dinner on Friday with your mom to write out lists of things we need to plan."

"Good. I'm glad."

"I don't want her to feel left out." She commented.

"She doesn't. Trust me." I answered. "She wants to be apart of everything so I think as long as we include her she won't feel left out."

"Do you think she'll wanna go dress shopping with us?" She asked sitting up excited making me chuckle.

"I'm sure she would."

"Ugh. I cannot wait." I wondered if that night she dreamt of what her wedding dress would look like.
