Becca's P.O.V.
As soon as we got in the car, Seth turned to us and asked where we wanted to go now.
"Sam and Em's house." Jake said. "They don't know yet."
"I guess they will soon." I laughed then, glancing around the cluttered car before turning back to Jake. I smiled and kissed him.
He kissed me back until Seth interrupted by making a rather loud gagging noise.
We glared at him and just held hands the rest of the car ride. Once at Sam's house we got out of the car and Jacob led me to the front door. He pushed it open and we walked inside.
"Hey." I said, smiling and greeting Emily with a hug.
"Hey Becca, hey Jake. What's going on?" She asked, returning the hug and looking at both of us.
"Well... Jacob kinda asked me to marry him." I said, grinning and unable to go any longer without saying it. I felt the happiest I'd felt in a while. It far surpassed any happy feeling I'd ever thought.
Emily squealed excitedly and hugged me again. "Congratulations!" She said, hugging Jacob as well. Sam grinned and clapped Jacob on the back.
"Congrats guys." He said, smiling.
We exchanged a few more words before deciding to go tell Bella and, as Jacob so nicely told Sam, "The leeches."
We got in the car while Seth stayed behind at Emily and Sam's house.
"Wait." I said once Seth got out. "Is he even legal to drive?" I asked, laughing.
"Not technically." Jacob laughed, starting the car and backing out of Sam and Emily's driveway. Once he got onto the main road he sped up and within fifteen minutes we were pulling into the Cullen's enormously long driveway.
"Hey lee- Cullens." He said, rethinking his words. I smiled, finally he was making an effort to stop calling them 'leeches'.
Suddenly Alice, Esme, Carlisle, Edward, Emmett, Rosalie, and Jasper were standing in front of me. Bella walked out of the house.
"What's up?" Alice asked, watching Jacob and I.
"Well..." I started, looking at Jacob for support. Edward smiled politely at us, he knew what was going on from reading Jacob's mind.
"Becca and I... are um..." Jacob said, allowing me to officially break the news.
Everyone stared at us confused, except for Edward of course, and waited for someone to just say what we were trying to say already.
"Oh what the hell. Jacob and I are getting married." I said, grinning happily. There was silence for a moment before something small darted at me and hugged me tightly. It was Alice.
"Oh my gosh! Congratulations!" She said before, to my shock, tentatively hugging Jacob for a moment as well.
"Thanks." I said grinning.
"I have to plan it for you!" She said, clapping excitedly. "That is if it's alright with the do- Jacob." She corrected herself. I had a feeling she'd heard Jacob almost slip up earlier and this was her revenge for it.
Jacob shrugged. "It's whatever Becca wants. I don't care if we're married in the middle of some dump. I just want her to be mine officially." He said, watching me. I blinked.
"I'm already yours." I said, smiling up at him.
"I want the document to prove it then." He said, grinning and looking only at me.
"Aw! Congrats Becca!" Bella said smiling. "We'll be keeping Charlie busy walking down the aisle." She said, giggling.
I blanched. "Well... about that. I- uh- kinda wanted my other dad to walk me down the aisle..." I said, biting my lip.
Bella smiled. "As long as you invite everyone, it'll be fine." She said, hugging me tightly.
I smiled before stepping back into Jacob's side. I looked up at him before wrapping one of my arms around his waist.
"Congratulations Becca!" Esme said as she and Carlisle walked up to hug me. "I'm so happy for you!"
"Thanks Esme, thanks Carlisle." I said sincerely before hugging them back. "You guys are some of the first to know. So shush until we're able to tell everyone ourselves."
She smiled and promised that none of them would tell a soul about it.
Alice grinned excitedly. "Hey Jacob, you could go tell all of your friends about it or something. I want to start going over details!" She said, bouncing up and down.
I shook my head before Jake could answer. "No can do, Alice." I said, "We have to go and break the news to Charlie."
"Ooh, have fun with that." She said, making a face. "I wonder how he'll react...it's really weird not knowing how something's going to plan out...a little refreshing though."
I laughed at this. Alice not knowing how something was going to go was fine with me. Everyone needs to be surprised every so often, including Alice Cullen.
"Anyway...we'd better get going...it's better now than never." I said, wondering how Charlie was going to react to this. "Also, afterwards I need to make a phone call to my parents..." I said, biting my lip.
I know I hadn't mentioned them much...truthfully I was trying to figure things out. I just didn't want people to know. They e-mailed me every once in a while, and even tried calling a few times. But I usually only send back short, vague responses, and kept the phone conversations short. I was a little angry with Charlie and Renee. I didn't quite view them as my parents. I honestly felt like I didn't have parents anymore. I viewed Bella as a sister, but I think it was just because of how similar we were and the bond we shared. Although I didn't quite think it was as strong as it would've been if we'd grown up together or even had a few memorable memories to share.
Honestly I felt lost. Like I didn't know anything. Truthfully the only person I felt fully connected to, the person who keep me sane, was Jacob. He is my everything now, and I love him as if I'd known him my whole life or maybe even longer. He is my entire reason for existence. So, long explanation short, I love him. A lot.
But even he couldn't fill the voids my 'parents' had left in me. The place where a mother and fathers love should be. I know Charlie means well, but he was the one who send me off as a baby. He and Renee just gave me away like I was nothing, like they didn't want me. I had so many questions to ask them, but I was scared of the answers I might get. I wouldn't know if they were lying or not, and I don't think I could stand it if they did lie about it.
You see, when I first found out, I cried for hours on end. I didn't want to think about it or talk about it, but I had just found out my parents abandoned me as a baby. They went all pick-and-choose on Bella and I, and in the end, I was the one who was given away. Like an unwanted gift or something, you can either throw it away, or give it away. I guess they choose to give me away, not even telling me that I had a twin sister hundreds and hundreds of miles away. I wanted desperately to know why they choose me to give away, but I had limited ways to find out. None of which I was willing to do at the moment.
I was snapped back into reality by Jacob calling my name.
"Becca...?" He asked, running his hand in front of my face.
"Huh? Sorry. Zoned out for a second." I said, laughing, but not forgetting about my previous thoughts.
Jacob looked at me for a few seconds longer before wrapping his arms around me and smiling.
"All right, well we'll talk to you all later." He said.
We said goodbye to the Cullen's and then got into the car. As soon as we were out of even vampire earshot, Jacob turned to me.
"Want to talk about it?" He asked, looking at me worriedly.
"About what?" I asked, looking down.
"Whatever you were thinking that made you look upset a little while ago." He said, frowning and watching me.
I shook my head. "It was nothing." I said, forcing a halfway believable smile.
I could tell by the look on his face that he didn't believe me, but he didn't push it. I knew Edward probably knew by now, as I didn't have my shield up at the moment. I guess I had let it down in all the excitement.
Jacob looked at me one last time before speeding up as we reached the main road. We stayed in silence until we reached Charlie's house. I knew Jacob kept shooting me worried glances the whole ride, but I didn't acknowledge them. We sat in the driveway for a couple of seconds, waiting for the other to make the first move. But neither of us did. I decided to say something to show Jacob nothing was wrong.
"Hey Jacob?" I asked.
"Yeah?" He answered, turning to face me.
"It was really nothing." I answered, smiling at him. "So there's no need to be so worried about me."
I reached over and placed my hand on the side of his face, looking directly into his eyes.
"Sorry...It comes with the whole falling in love business." He said, before leaning forward to kiss me tenderly.
I heard a tap on my window and jumped about a foot in the air, breaking away from Jacob.
I quickly turned to look at the window and saw Charlie standing there, a smile on his face. I knew he wouldn't have been smiling if it were Bella and Edward, but this really wasn't about them now, so I pushed the thought from my mind.
"Hey Charlie." I said smiling before pushing the car door open.
"Hey Becca." He said, pulling me into a semi-awkward one armed hug. "Let's all go inside. I think it's about to start raining again." He glanced up at the grey sky. I wondered what gave him the idea that it was going to rain in Forks. Note the sarcasm here.
We walked up to the house and followed Charlie into the house. He had been reading the paper at the table and so that's where we all ended up about a minute later, sitting around the small table in the kitchen.
"So what are you guys here for?" He asked, looking around at both of us.
"We just came over to visit." I said, smiling at him. "Also we have something to tell you."
He looked between us. "All right, shoot."
"Well..." I said, glancing at Jacob.
"Charlie, Becca and I have decided to get married." Jacob said, faster than he normally spoke.
Charlie's eyes widened slightly before a grin spread across his face. "Congratulations!" He said, getting up to hug us both tightly.
I was shocked. He was obviously...well, what should I call it... Team Jacob. Charlie was obviously Team Jacob. Then there can be Team Edward. That works. But what about neutral people? Hm... Switzerland was neutral territory, so then it'll be Team Switzerland. I laughed slightly at this, causing Charlie and Jacob to both shoot me a look.
"Sorry, thinking about something funny." I said, smiling.
"Did you ask her today?" Charlie asked, turning back to Jacob.
"Yes." He grinned. "And for a second I thought she was going to say no."
I hit his arm lightly. "Hey! I would never have said no." I said, looking at him.
"I'm not a mind reader." he grinned, shrugging.
"Where did he ask you at?" Charlie asked.
"This perfect, beautiful spot down at the beach!" I smiled happily, remembering my new best moment of my life.
Charlie smiled at this. "So when do you guys think the wedding's going to be?" He asked.
I thought for a second. "No clue." I said. "But maybe a few weeks after Edward and Bella's?" I asked, turning to look at Jake.
He nodded, "Yeah, sounds good. I don't care as long as I can eventually call you mine."
I rolled my eyes. "You already can." I told him, for the second time today.
We talked to Charlie for a little while longer before deciding to go back to Jakes house.
Once there we, to be blunt, curled up on the couch and made out. We did this for a while before just cuddling and talking. I decided to talk to him about what I was thinking about earlier at the Cullen's house. Once I was done, I was in tears, and he pulled me into his chest and whispered comforting words in my ear.
Im sorry again for the longlonglong wait for this chapter. My parents are being complete arse's right now and have taken the internet. So I'll post this whenever it's back up again.
Please review! I'll update again in a couple of days hopefully!
