So I know it has been forever, but I have been trying to work out how to best wind up this story. This was going to by the ending, but I found I had far too much left to cover, so there will be more! As with Seth and Nessie's relationship, I'm going to skip all the boring dating bits and get to the good stuff. We are picking back up 6 months later and our favourite couple are off camping again... Enjoy!

Chapter 22 – The Question

JPOV

Just ask! Do it now! I told myself, dropping suddenly to my knee. "Um, Nessie?"

"Oh, sorry Jake. What did you drop?" she asked, looking around at forest floor.

"Nessie, I didn't drop anything. Come here." I say, reaching out for her hand and pulling her too me. I know I can do this but I wrap my arms around her waist for a few seconds to build my strength. I don't know why I'm so nervous. You'd think asking Edward would have been the hard part but he had just laughed and slapped me on the back, saying he gave me his permission when he didn't kill me after he found out Imprinted on his baby girl.

Then I'd had to go and talk to Bells. No matter what happened between me and Renesmee, I knew that Bella and I would always share something special and I wanted to make sure she was happy before I actually took this big step.

************* 3 days earlier *************

"Bells, I have to ask you something." I said nervously.

"Jake, what's wrong? You seem nervous." She could always tell my moods so easily.

"I... Um, I talked to Edward this morning, and he was ok with it but you're my best friend Bells, well aside from Nessie of course but I don't want to do anything that you're not comfortable..."

"Jacob! You're rambling. What are you trying to say? What did you talk to Edward about?" she asked with an amused smile, before her eyes lit up in understanding. "Oh. My. GOD! You are going to propose aren't you?" Suddenly I was bowled over and Bella was lying on top of me, hugging me so tight that I couldn't breathe.

"Oh Jacob, I am so happy for you! How are you going to do it? When?" she demanded, making me laugh.

"So I take it I have you're approval then Bells?" I laughed.

"Jacob, I would never give away my daughter to anyone less!" she beamed at me, looking beautiful as always. "I can't exactly complain anyway, Jacob. I have been married to Edward almost for almost seven years."

"I know Bells but we've come a long way since then haven't we," I said, almost acknowledging the unspoken love between us. I knew that Bella and I would always love each other dearly and I was okay with that. After Bella had rescued me and read in Leah's mind that Bella had admitted that she still loved me, I had worried that I was being unfaithful to Nessie's love. I had always known that I would love Bella until the end of my days. She was my first love and my best friend.

But somehow, Renesmee was also my first love and my best friend. The way I felt for Bella was something entirely different. In a weird way, I sometimes thought that maybe I loved Bella more because she had given me my Nessie but I knew that wasn't true. Yes, Bella had given me Ness, but Nessie was Nessie! It sounds kind of stupid to say, but it was true. And it wasn't just because she is my Imprint, Nessie is absolutely perfect in every way imaginable. She was just like another half of me, wrapped up in a really sexy girls body!

When Bella had finally chosen Edward, I thought I had been broken beyond repair. I turned wolf and ran for weeks. But when I thought Renesmee had chosen Seth, I had wanted to die. I had even considered letting those bloodsuckers end me but had eventually realised that no matter what happened, I would never give up fighting for her. Nessie had so much more than my heart, she had my soul. It kind of helped me understand what Bella had gone through all those years ago when Edward left, why no matter how good I would have been for her I could never have been enough because I wasn't meant for her. She needed him to be complete and once she was complete she had Nessie for me. It's like the Gods had this grand plan on how it would all work out for the best and we were just the pieces moving around on their game board.

I said a little silent thank you to the Gods once again for their intervention, then focused on telling Bells all about my plans. How I wanted us to be married just after she graduated and my plans for building us our own place in La Push, but in a remote wooded area which was not far from the border so was still quite close to her family home.

"Jacob, honestly don't worry about trying to keep her close to us." Bells said, shocking me that she wouldn't want to keep Nessie as close to her as possible. "I'm not trying to get rid of her or anything Jacob," she laughed at my expression. "It's just that I don't know how much longer we are going to be able to stay in Forks. We have only stayed so close for so long because of you and Renesmee. We don't plan to move far, but far enough away that we won't be recognised."

"No Bella! Please don't leave!" I begged, suddenly desperate not to lose her.

"Jacob, relax. We will only be a couple of hours away and we can see each other all the time still. Plus, you're not going to want to be Alpha forever are you? You and Nessie are going to have an eternity together, so once you two are done here you can come with us. Just imagine Jake, we have forever to explore the world together!"

I had to admit, it did sound good. I had never thought much about how long I would stay with the pack as Alpha. I figured that once the Cullens move away, most of us would stop phasing and return to our normal lives. That would never happen with me because I was going to have Nessie with me forever, which of course meant that I would never age. Eventually I would have to move on to avoid suspicion from the outside world. The Elders would of course know the truth and they could keep an eye on things for me.

"So where are we going first Bells?" I asked, trying to imagine us all out in the world exploring all those places they make you learn about in school.

"Well, first of all I think we need to go to a jeweller and buy my daughter the perfect ring!" She laughed, dragging me back toward the house.

Oh shit! I really have to do this now!

***********back to Jacob on the ground freaking out******************

"What on earth are you doing Jake?" Nessie laughed, trying to pull me back up to my feet.

"No, just... Nessie I... Fuck it!" Why the fuck cant I get these fucking words out? I had been waiting to do this my whole fucking life and now that the moment had come I was royally screwing it up. "FUCK!"

Nessie started laughing at me and rested her hand on my cheek... Relax Jacob. Talk to me.

"Okay," I huffed, taking a deep breath. "Nessie, you know that you're my Imprint and I love you and we're going to be together forever and I love your mom and dad even though they are vampires and fuck I love your whole family Nessie and ..."

Jake, you're rambling!

"I know, I'm sorry Ness. It's just that I had all this planned out in my head and now I just can't remember anything. So anyway, basically what I wanted to know was would you want to marry me?" There, I'd said it. Now I just had to wait and she would say yes and we could go home and tell everyone the good news.

"Of course I would want to marry you Jacob. But the question is... are you actually asking me to marry you or are you just checking for future reference?" She had a small smirk on her face and I knew she was messing with me.

"Okay, I admit it... that was really lame. Let me try again." I pushed her away slightly and held her hands in between us. "Nessie, will you marry me?"

"Hmmm... Still not very romantic Jacob." I can't believe she is teasing me right now!

"Renesmee Carlie Cullen... You are my Imprint, but much more than that. You are my heart, my soul, my life. You are the most perfect person I have ever met in my life and I want to be with you forever. I want to marry you, love you, make you happy and never ever grow old with you. I want to see the world with you and in 2 hundred years when space travel becomes possible, I want to explore the whole fucking universe with you! Please, will you do me the tremendous honour of becoming my wife?" There, she couldn't possibly say no to that.

"Oh my... That was the cheesiest pile of mush I have ever heard!" she laughed. She actually had to walk away from me and sit down on a fallen log she was laughing so hard. What a way to make a guy feel good about himself. "Seriously Jacob, did you write that yourself or did you steal it from a Hallmark card?"

"You know what Nessie, never mind. It was a dumb idea anyway." I didn't want to be an emotional bitch about this, but my girl was turning down my marriage proposal and all I wanted to do was curl up in a ball and feel sorry for myself. The worst thing was we were four hours away from home and only had a small tent, so it's not like I can get away from her.

"Jacob, wait. I'm sorry okay. Of course I'm going to marry you!" She grabbed my hand and spun me around to face her. "It was just too easy to wind you up!"

"Nessie! A marriage proposal is not the appropriate time to start messing with a guy!" I shouted at her, probably a little more aggressively that was necessary. "Seriously, what the fuck?"

"Jake, I'm sorry. I gave you another try at it so let me do better this time." She shoved me back down onto the ground, grabbed my hands and tried to look serious. "Jacob Ephraim Black... Yes! I would love to marry you! Now where is my ring? I know you and mom picked me something beautiful!"

"You knew?" Who the fuck spilled the beans?

"Sorry, Alice slipped!" She laughed, bouncing up and down in a much more fitting reaction to her original one.

"But Alice can't see me. How could she have known?" I was going to kill that pixie bitch when I saw her next!

"I know, but she saw Mom tell Daddy all about it." She beamed at me, then realised the trouble she had caused. "Don't blame her Jake, she had her vision when we were out shopping and all she said was 'he's bought the ring', then when she snapped out of it she was being really evasive and wouldn't look at me but she couldn't stop smiling so I knew what was going on."

"Okay, I won't kill her but I am going to hurt her. I can't believe that you already knew!" Not that I should really be surprised, Nessie always had a skill for finding out everyone's secrets.

"Jacob, I'm sorry! I know that I shouldn't have teased you but you were just too easy. I can't believe that you were actually nervous to ask me! It's not like I would ever say no. I've been waiting for this day since the day you woke up in Pocatello and kissed me." In that instant I knew that everything was just perfect and we were going to be together forever just like I had always dreamed.

"So when are we going to do it? She we just run off to Vegas, or give Alice her dream and allow her to plan us a huge party?" I couldn't wait to marry her but if she wanted the whole fairy tale wedding, then that was what she would get.

"Well, AFTER you finally give me my ring..." Holy shit! I forgot the ring!

Getting down on my knee again, I grabbed her left hand and pulled the blue velvet box out of my pocket. This time I was going to get it right. "Nessie, I love you more than my own life. Please marry me!" I opened the box and mentally high fived myself at the look on Nessie's face as she looked at the platinum two carat solitaire diamond ring. As I slid it onto her finger she started to bounce with excitement again and as soon as it on she threw herself at me.

"Yes Yes YES! Yes Jacob, I cannot wait to be Renesmee Black!" Suddenly Nessie was on top of me and kissing me like her life depended on it. Her normally soft kisses were hard and forceful, her tongue flicking out to meet mine, teasing me and drawing me more into her. I could already tell that this was leading somewhere that I liked.

NPOV

Although Jacob and I had still not had sex, we had spent the last six months doing everything but. At first it had been just hot steamy kisses but it didn't take long for the heavy petting to start. It was difficult with my Daddy around all the time and a family with ridiculous hearing but we managed.

The first time I got to actually touch him without his damn shorts blocking me was when I'd convinced him to take me for a ride on his back, then suggested we go for a swim. How easily he forgot that when he jumped straight into the water before phasing his shorts would be too wet to put on easily. Before he could struggle into them, I distracted him and he didn't have the willpower to stop me once he felt my hand on him. He later confessed that he thought he was going to come right then and there but he did manage to last a few minutes.

I was amazed to finally see him naked. I knew from seeing him in just his shorts that he was well built but I had only ever seen a penis in books and occasionally Emmett when he was being stupid and doing a nudie run. Seriously, who would ever want to see their uncle that way? Gross! Generally I thought they were quite ugly things, penises, but Jake's I didn't find offensive. It was actually really hot to see him in all his glory. He was quite big and intimidating. I knew that once we started sleeping together it was going to really hurt the first few times. A normal sized guy would hurt, so Jacob was going to kill me!

After I'd given him his first orgasm, it was easy to convince him to return the favour. Less than a week later we were hanging out at his place alone and having a pretty heavy make out session. When he took off my t-shirt and bra, I decided to be bold and led his hands down to my waistband of my jeans, guiding him to remove them. At first he refused to do more than play with my clit. It was frustrating because it felt good, but I needed more. Finally he dipped one of his fingers inside me and I thought I'd found heaven!

From then on, we'd been all about tit for tat, constantly trying to one-up each other with who could provide the most pleasure. We learnt everything we could about each other's likes and dislikes. We touched and teased, kissed and nibbled, licked and sucked. We did everything but...

It was time for more though. I know my Daddy wanted me to wait for marriage but my Mom understood. She had already told me about how she had tried to seduce Daddy many times before he finally agreed that he would sleep with her as a human if she agreed to marry him first. Thank God he did otherwise I wouldn't be here.

I definitely didn't want to have any accidents like they did and get myself knocked up so young. We didn't know if Jacob and I could have babies, but I had regular periods and Jacob was a virile young man so we would have to assume that we could. When I had worked out that Jacob was planning on proposing to me, I decided that I needed to be prepared and went to Grandpa for some contraceptives. He put me on the pill and gave me a bunch of sample condoms of every shape and size.

So now I was ready physically, mentally and contraceptively, if that's a word! And I was now a fiancé! I am done with waiting so now I just need to do better than my mum and seduce the man of my dreams.

"Yes Yes YES!" I shouted, throwing myself at him, "Yes Jacob, I cannot wait to me Renesmee Black!" Just the thought of being his wife was making me hot and I channelled all that love and passion into my kiss for Jacob. I could feel him smiling as I kissed him and couldn't help but smile right back. I tried to push him down onto the forest floor but he suddenly swept me up into his arms and headed back towards our tent, never breaking our kiss.

Before I knew it, I was being lowered down onto our big soft camp bed with Jacob on top of me. "Nessie, my fiancé, I love you," he murmured sexily, "And I am about to show you just how much."

Well at least I knew we were on the same page. Without waiting for him to make the first move, I lifted my shirt off and laid back to enjoy his reaction to my new lingerie. His eyes glazed over for a moment as he looked down at me but then he shook his head and reached behind me to undo the clasp and remove it all together. "Better!" he said with a grin and moved down to nuzzle in my breasts. "My God you are so perfect!"

"Imprint remember Jake? Made just for you!" I laughed, but my laughter was cut short as he bit down on my nipple, sending a jolt straight to my lower stomach. I let out a moan as I reached up to remove his shirt, but he refused to move so I just ripped it right off him. I couldn't help it... Being horny makes me aggressive.

Taking the hint, Jacob quickly stripped himself down to his boxers before helping me out of what was left of my clothes. "This is hardly fair Jacob," I said as sweetly as I could. "I am laying her all naked and you still rudely have shorts on."

"Sorry Ness, I just don't want this to get out of hand." Damn Jacob, always trying to be responsible. That was going to have to change.

"Look Jacob, stop trying to be the grown up. If I am going to be your wife, then you need to trust me to make my own decisions okay? And right now, I have decided that I want you to be naked, so get naked!" Apparently my growling aggressiveness was the best way of dealing with him because he did as he was told straight away.

"Whatever my Imprint needs" he growled, kissing me hard as he ran his hands slowly down my body towards where he knew I needed them. I couldn't help but gasp as his grazed his fingers slowly over my clit. "What does my Imprint need now?"

"Touch me Jacob, please?" I begged.

"Just touch?" he asked with a smirk.

"I need you to do whatever it takes to make me come, Jacob!" I demanded and couldn't help but laugh at how direct I was being. I didn't care though, it was just my Jacob and I knew that he loved it when I talked dirty to him. I lost my train of thought as his fingers began to stroke and tease me, his kisses trailing down my neck towards my breasts again.

I lost all sense of time for a while as Jacob's mouth finally reached my core and he began to lick me while his fingers worked their magic. Nothing in the world felt as good as Jacob's tongue and fingers working together. He knew just what to do to drive me crazy, taking me up and down, holding me back from my orgasm because he knew that it would be all the more intense when it came.

Eventually he pushed me over the edge and I have such an intense orgasm that I felt numb from the waist down. As Jacob continued to lap at me as I began to come back down to earth, I suddenly had to pull away, giggling uncontrollably at the sensation of his soft tongue on my over sensitive clit.

"What's wrong Nessie?" Jacob asked, knowing perfectly well how sensitive I felt after coming.

"Nothing at all Jacob," I said, pulling him up to kiss me. "I was just thinking that maybe it's time for me to return the favour."

"You don't have to Nessie, you know that." He always made sure to give me an out if I wanted one but I couldn't think of anything I wanted more than to taste him the way he'd just tasted me. Without bothering to answer him, I put my finger to his lips and looked him in the eyes as I slid myself down towards his erection. I loved the look of excited anticipation on his face as he watched me.

His eyes rolled back in his head as I put my hand around him and ran tongue slowly from his base up to the head. It always amused me how easy this was. I could do almost anything at all and he would love it as long as it his genitals are involved. Within just a few minutes of me licking and sucking, he came into my mouth with a loud grunt. I gently licked him clean and kissed my way back up to lay next to him.

"Your turn again," I teased, and had to laugh when he immediately started to move. "Relax Jacob, there's no rush. Just hold me for a few minutes, okay?"

"Thanks Ness, I think I need a few minutes after that performance. Thank you by the way!"

"Are you thanking me for giving you a blow job?" Damn, I must be good!

"Yes Nessie, I am. You don't know how good you make me feel." He started to kiss me again and I figured that maybe now was the time to make my move.

"If you think that felt good Jake, just wait until you are inside me." Suddenly he was sitting up three feet away from me.

"God damn it Nessie, I can't even think about that yet or I might blow my load again." He groaned.

"You're such a romantic Jacob!" I teased. "You'd better start thinking about it soon otherwise you might not be able to fulfil your role as provider of whatever I need."

"The wedding is still a long way off Nessie; I think I have some time yet."

"What makes you think I am going to wait until we're married Jacob?" I said looking him straight in the eye.

"Well we at least need to plan for this and talk to Carlisle. We need to make sure we're safe so we don't have any accidents. I love that you're parents got knocked up on their first time because it brought me you, but I don't want that for us." Yes, he was playing right into my hands.

I quickly scooted over to my bag to grab the supplies I had packed. "Jakey, Jakey, Jakey... You always underestimate me. I have already spoken to Grandpa and have been on the pill for almost 3 weeks." I said and Jacob's jaw was too busy on the floor to form any words, so I threw him the bag of rubbers and laughed "And Grandpa sent these samples for you to try. He wasn't sure what your preferences would be."

"Nessie... I..." Speechless was good. At least he wasn't telling me no.

"Jacob, I'm not trying to pressure you. If you're not ready, then I understand." I started crawling towards him, making sure to push my bust forward and wiggle my hips as seductively as I could. When I reached him, I kissed him gently before continuing, "But I need you to understand something Jacob... I am ready."

Before I knew it I was pinned on my back on the mattress and Jacob was kissing me passionately. I didn't even have time to gloat before his hands were everywhere and I was moaning in pleasure. I could feel the moisture pooling between my legs as his hand made its way down to where I needed it. I was thankful that I was already so wet from Jacob's earlier efforts. I knew from what I had heard that this was going to hurt but the wetter I was, the easier it would be for me.

I couldn't hold in my moan of pleasure as Jacob started to move down my body again, lapping sweetly at my folds. His fingers slipped in and he wiggled them around, gently trying to stretch me. Within minutes I was ready to come again but wanted to wait until he was inside me. "Jacob, I'm ready. Please?"

Slowly he moved back up my body, kissing everywhere he could reach. When his face reached mine, he stopped and looked deep into my eyes for a moment as if searching for any trace of doubt. I reached out a hand and dipped into the bag of samples. I lifted one out and turned my face to read what it said, "Extra Large, ribbed for her pleasure. Sounds good to me."

"Give me that!" Jacob said, taking it from me and taking it out of its packet. He rolled off of me and sat up with his back to me as he tried to put it on.

"Let me help you Jake." I pulled him back down onto the bed and took the rubber from his hand. I grabbed his erection and gently began to pump him, making sure he was really hard before I rolled the condom all the way down.

"Where did you learn to do that?" he smirked.

"Having two dirty sex-mad aunts has its advantages you know!" I laughed, before kissing him again. He quickly rolled me onto my back and started playing with me again. "I'm ready Jake, I promise."

"I know Nessie, I just want to make sure this is as good for you as it can be."

"As long as it's you and me, it'll be perfect I promise." I wiggled around and he moved so that he was positioned between my legs and began to rub the head of his erection along by opening. "God that feels good Jacob. Make love to me please?"

Slowly he began to push into me and the pressure of it shocked me. There was no pain at first, just a weird stretching feeling. Jacob asked if I was okay but all I could do was nod. He moved back a bit, just thrusting an inch or so in until I relaxed a bit and asked for more.

He pushed all the way into me and I just managed to hold in my scream. I had never really experienced any really pain so was quite shocked at how much this hurt. It felt like I was been ripped in two. I was aware that I had tears running down my cheeks and felt a rush of love for Jacob as he kissed them away. I looked up into his eyes and forced a small smile. "I'm okay Jacob, I promise. Keep going please."

He kissed me deeply and began to move as gently as he could. I tried to focus my mind on how much I loved Jacob and that I was now his fiancé and would soon be his wife. Eventually the pain began to subside and it felt okay. It didn't exactly feel good, but it did feel wonderful to know that I was now connected to Jacob so completely. From his breathing, I could tell that he was close so I began to rock my hips into his to try to give him more of me. I was surprised to realise that it felt better to me and began to feel the pleasure building in the pit of my stomach.

Jacob leant back slightly, angling himself so that he could reach down and rub on my clit and I knew that I was close. I moaned and felt my eyes roll back into my head as I got closer to coming. I couldn't help but rock myself harder against Jacob, making him groan and shake. "I can't last much longer Nessie, you feel too good. Come for me please!"

I gave myself over the feeling he was giving me and knew I was I was almost there. Suddenly I felt him begin to pulse inside me and he let out a huge roar. The throbbing of his cock inside me was just what I needed to push me over the edge. I screamed as I felt my muscles contracting around him.

As I came down from my high Jacob's mouth was on mine again, kissing me like never before. "I love you Renesmee. I love you so much."

"I love you too my Jacob. Thank you so much for making this so perfect." I couldn't believe that this had really just happened. I had just made love to the man of my dreams and if I were to die right now, I would die the happiest woman on the planet.

I'll try to update again soon. Next we'll find out what happened with Lydia and the new wolves.

Please review and let me know what you think of Jake's proposal.
