Jacob's POV:
We waited 2 more days and the Cullens came back. There had been no sign of Edward and we made sure. "Where's Edward?" I asked, in private to Carlisle.
"We decided it would be best for him to stay someplace else for now. He's at our closest cousin's house in Alaska." He said. I nodded.
"Alright good, and thank you," I said, and he nodded patting my shoulder gently. We walked back together to the room and Alice was with Bella talking. I looked over Sam and he nodded, and Bella looked up at me and I walked over grabbing her hand and helped her up gently in front of everyone. "Bella and I need to announce something..." I said.
"It happened the day after you guys left," Bella said. Everyone got closer and was listening, I saw Emily standing with Sam smiling. I looked down at Bella and smiled taking a deep breath, and then I looked up at everyone.
"Me and Bella are getting married, we are engaged and I proposed yesterday like Bella said," I said. Alice's mouth dropped and she jumped up and ran over hugging Bella gently and then let her go being careful of the smell.
"Oh my god, Bella! I'm so happy for you! Congratulations!" She squealed, and she even jumped over giving me a hug and I hugged her back cautiously. Everyone started congratulating us again. Esme, Carlisle, Emmett, gave me and Bella hugs. Jasper and Rosalie stayed back and just said Congrats. I pulled Bella back into my arms. We all sat down and Esme, Emily, and Alice all started planning right away. Emily told Esme and Alice her original plans and they both agreed with them. We would get married in week before Bella's stomach grew too much. Emily said she could get a special dress for Bella, and Esme said she could do the food and help Alice plan the venue and everything else.
"Where would you guys like to get married?" Esme asked, softly. I looked down at Bella and she turned to Esme right away.
"I think we should do it at Jacob's house, I know it would mean a lot to him, and it's a nice wide-open field." She said, and then looked up at me smiling with her hand on my knee and I put my hand on top of hers smiling looking at Esme nodding.
"Sounds perfect." Esme nodded and wrote it down. "Also, I think we should go down to the rez mansion so that everyone can get ready and it will be closer to my house," I said.
"That's a really good idea," Emily said, nodding.
"And I will plan the honeymoon alone with Jacob and Emily," Alice said standing up, looking down at me and then at Emily. I nodded and kissed Bella's forehead getting up, with Emily and walked with Alice to private. Once she closed the door she immediately started talking. "So... what are you thinking?" She asked. I thought for a minute and smiled.
"I want to take her to Portugal... we have a special island there called Isle Black... with an amazing mansion in the beach... right now it's winter there so it will be perfect... a long time ago my family with the help of the back all chipped in and got it." She was nodding and writing all this down. Emily gasped and smiled.
"That's perfect Jake," Emily said, with her hand on my shoulder. I smiled, looking back at Alice.
"Alright perfect... ok... so we have venue down, food down, honeymoon down, I will arrange the flights and all that, Emily, Esme and I will design the venue just for you two, and we'll help Bella with the dress and everything, and the guys will help you with the tux's and everything... also who would you like your best men to be?" She asked getting ready to write.
"Billy, Seth, Quil, Embry, and Paul," I said. She nodded writing them down.
"Perfect... I'll get Bella's ladies... and I think that's everything. Oh! Also... I'm packing Bella's bags for her, and I don't know if you want to pack your own bags or if you want Seth or one of your men to pack it."
"I think I'll be good packing my own bags." I chuckled. She laughed, nodding.
"Good."
"Thank you Alice... you really didn't need to do all this for us," I said. She scoffed.
"Oh please... Bella is my best friend... I've been waiting for this... and it finally gives me something to work on. I love planning these things." She said, happily. I smiled and hugged her gently, and then we walked out and Alice went back with Emily to Esme, and they were all talking and writing stuff down. I sat down with Bella my arm wrapped around her again.
"You know I hate surprises right?" She said, and I laughed.
"Well, your gonna love this one." She smiled and leaned her head against my shoulder. After a few minutes, Alice lifted her head looking around.
"Well what the hell are you guys waiting for?! Go and start packing! Carlisle would you mind staying here to help book the flights and everything else." He nodded smiling and walked over. "Sam, do you mind packing for Emily so she can stay and plan with us?" I heard Sam grumble, not liking taking orders from someone else, especially a vampire, but he nodded and went to pack. While Alice had everything under control everyone else including me and Bella went to go pack to leave back to the rez mansion before night. I finished my bag quickly and helped Bella's with hers. Once we finished I carried all the bags and helped Bella bag downstairs. Carlisle had finished booking everything and handed me the papers quickly and secretly, and I put them in my bag. Soon everyone else came back down with their bags to leave. Alice grabbed all the papers and put them all in a separate briefcase and then her, Esme and Carlisle all ran off to pack quickly. Once they got back down we all got up and left. I made sure Bella was wearing my hoodie so that she didn't get cold on the way back, I carried our bags and kept my hand on her hip while we walked back. It took us around 45 minutes, but once we got there we saw everyone outside, all the kids playing around and the Elders sitting on the chairs enjoying the sunset. They all looked really surprised and Charlie ran and gave Bella a hug saying hi and I did the same with my father, and then we all got settled and let Esme, Alice, and Emily get back to planning, but I interrupted them.
"Maybe we should tell them the news first, so I can get Charlie killing me over with first," I whispered, and they all nodded. I coughed getting everyone's attention and everyone gathered around. I walked to the front with Bella my hand on her hip. "Me and Bella have two things we need to tell you..." I said, looking down at her. She smiled back up at me taking a deep breath and then turned to everyone.
"You all know that I'm pregnant, but... while we were gone we found out... that I'm having twins..." She said, and a few people gasped and cheered. And then it was my turn.
"And... yesterday, I proposed to Bella, we are engaged, and Alice, Esme, and Emily are planning the wedding for us to get married in a week, and we came down to announce this to everyone," I said. I looked at Charlie holding my breath waiting for him to flip, and then what surprised me next... there was no flip, he just smiled and got up hugging Bella and hugged me.
"Congratulations you two! I'm so happy to see you two together!" He said, getting tears in his eyes. "I never would have thought that you would be growing up this fast Bells..." He said, with a hand on her cheek, and she smiled leaning into his hand tears in her eyes and then hugged him and they stayed like that and I stepped away for a minute to talk with my dad so I didn't intrude on their moment.
"Congrats son... I'm proud of you!" Billy said, patting my shoulder and I smiled nodding.
"Thanks dad." After that everyone just helped out Esme and Emily make another feast while Alice continued with the plans. Everyone was happy and talking during dinner, while Alice explained the plans to everyone. Once we finished dinner we all helped out with cleaning, they put on music and everyone danced and had fun. I noticed that Leah had completely discluded herself from all this. Me and Bella were slow dancing outside, and her feet were on top of mine to make sure she didn't trip. My hands-on her lower back and my cheek on the top of her head. Her hands were resting on my shoulders and her cheek was laying on my shoulder. We danced like that for I don't know how long until I felt her yawning and knew she needed to get some rest. We said goodnight to everyone, and I guess they all stayed up later dancing and having fun while Alice and Esme planned all night with Emily until Sam dragged her to bed. I had already unpacked for us, so we just got ready for bed and then got in the bed again and fell asleep together with her curled up securely in my arms.
