Bella's POV

We were at Marie's doctor and were waiting to be called back. Her doctor seemed to have a lot of patients. Jake sighed. He was holding Noah and he rolled his eyes.

"Jeez, how long is this going to take?" He asked.

"I don't know. Would you relax? It's not the end of the world, it's not like we had anything to do today." I pointed out.

"I know but I'm bored." He said. I grabbed Noah from him and glanced at Marie playing on the floor.

"Play with Marie. Amuse yourself." I said. He was about to sit down when they called her name.

"Thank god." He said and I rolled my eyes. The doctor took us to a room and we sat down.

"Sorry for the wait. A lot of kids got sick." He said and I nodded in understanding. "So how is Marie? What's her eating habits like, and sleeping?" He asked.

"She's pretty normal. We're just concerned about her development. She said her first words last week but I know that generally happens around six months. She's fourteen months. We're just a bit concerned." I explained.

"Oh, well she seems to be just a little delayed but if you guys work with her at home. Try to get her to say simple things and give her the correct pronunciation and by the time she's old enough for preschool, she should be on track with other kids her age." He told us. He gave us some papers with word suggestions and other things we could do to help her. I smiled and thanked him.


Jake and I drove back home and he put Marie down for her nap while I put Noah in his crib. When they were both asleep I grabbed the baby monitor and we crept quietly out of the room. I turned to Jake.

"Do you have to patrol?" I asked.

"It's my day off." He answered and I nodded. We went downstairs.

"How about we watch a movie?" I asked.

"Only if I get to pick it." He said.

"Deal." I grinned and he put in a movie. I honestly couldn't tell you what it was because I was a little distracted by Jake. We had been dating for two months and we had said I love you to each other and I was getting a little curious. I knew Jake was a virgin and he knew I was. I wanted to know what it would be like to be with someone you loved. I turned to look at him and he was watching the screen. I smiled and kissed his shoulder lightly. He glanced at me and I kissed him hard. He fell back on the couch and I instantly straddled him. He put his hands on my waist.

"Bells?" He asked. I shook my head and kissed him again. He made a small noise and pulled me closer. I ran my hand down his bare chest and my hand brushed over him lightly and he bucked his hips against me, which put him in a very delicate place. We both gasped hard. And I pulled him against. Me and rubbed myself on him. Our breathing picked up and I felt the pleasure building. I was taking gasping breaths' His hands went up my sides and found my breast and I breathed out suddenly. He kissed my neck and I moaned lightly, which made him growl deep in his chest. Suddenly the baby monitor went off and we both froze.

"Fuck." Jake said. I sighed and slid off of the couch. I turned to go upstairs leaving Jake on the couch to calm down. I got to the room and glanced in the mirror and I looked flushed and aroused. I sighed. It was Noah. I picked him up and rocked him. I knew by the sound of his cry that he just wanted held. I rocked him until he fell asleep again. I put him back in his crib and went downstairs. Jake looked at me.

"Sam called. I have to run patrol, Seth broke his ankle trying to do a trick on the skateboard and Leah took him home. He will heal but it'll take a few days. I have to fill in." Jake said.

"Okay. I'll she whenever you get off." I said. He kissed me and sighed.

"God, I wish I could stay." He whispered to me and I smiled.

"Go do you job." I said lightly and pushed him toward the door.

"I look forward to continuing that." He nodded at the couch and I blushed. He laughed and ran out the door. Jeez. I had jumped him and acted like a horny teenager, never mind the fact that I actually was one. I smiled and went back up stairs. I knew Charlie was out of town tonight and I had a plan. I got the kids ready for going out and packed them extra clothes. The fell back asleep in the car and I drove to Emily's. She came out to help me get the kids in the car. I sat at the table and she put Marie on the couch. We left Noah in his carrier rather than waking him up to move him.

"Emily, do you know what time Jake gets off of patrol tonight?" I asked.

"Eleven. Why?" She asked.

"Can you watch the kids tonight?" I asked. She glanced at me and smiled.

"Are you two finally going to take the next step?" She asked. I blushed.

"Maybe." I mumbled and she laughed.

"Well good for you. But remember to use protection. The last thing you two need is another baby." She said glancing to the living room. I laughed.

"I know. We're covered." I said and she smiled.

"So how is everything with you guys?" She asked.

"It's good. If you want tonight you can take Marie to see Seth, I might make him feel better." I smiled.

"Ok, crazy kid needs to be more careful. You know for a werewolf, he's really uncoordinated." She said and we laughed.

"Talking about my brother?" Leah asked walking in. I nodded. "He's even clumsier since he became a werewolf; I think it's the growth spurt." She smiled.

"So did you know Jake and Bella are going to take the next step?" Emily said and Leah laughed.

"Awesome." She said.

"Don't tell him in your wolf mind, I want to surprise him." I said and she smiled.

"You know what we need to get for you?" She asked.

"What?" I asked. She and Emily shared a look.

"Sexy lingerie." She answered and I laughed.

"Fine." I said. We searched through the closet and Emily finally found a night gown that was short and blue. It barely covered my ass but it was pretty. I put it in a bag and drove home at 10: 30. I ran up to my room and put on a pair of lace under ware that matched the night gown. The straps on the night gown prevented me from wearing a bra so I slid it over my head and felt the silk move over my bare breast. I took my hair down and fluffed it a little and then I heard the door open.

"Bella, I'm home." He yelled up the stairs. I smiled at my reflection and went downstairs. Jake was turned toward the TV and I laughed quietly. He heard me and turned around. I saw the exact moment when it registered in his mind what I was wearing. His eyes widened and his moth opened slightly. I smiled and stalked toward him.

"Welcome home Jake." I said stopping next to him.

"Bells, what…." He trailed off and I smiled lightly and wrapped my arms around him.

"Can't I dress up for myself? Does there have to be a meaning behind it?" I asked and kissed him. He kissed me back but then moved back from me.

"Bells, you should think about this." He said.

"I have. All. Day. Long." I whispered each word against his skin. I heard his breath come out in a shuddering wave. I smiled up at him. "But if you think I should." I looked at him from under my eyelashes and turned away. "I'll be upstairs, in my big bed, all alone. Just thinking about how much I want you to…." I trailed off when I heard him growl lightly. He grabbed my hand and pulled me back to face him. There was heat in his eyes and he pushed me into the wall by the stairs and kissed me hard. I smiled lightly. Checkmate.
