Chapter Twelve - Perfect
"Keep her safe and sound," My dad said to Jacob for the millionth time.
Both of my parents were leaving for a few weeks with Carlisle. Their plan was to go to South America for about two weeks to find Nahuel again, and then my parents were going to go alone to Isle Esme for a second honeymoon. I had somewhat ruined their first one.
"You know that I will," Jake told him again. Dad did know that Jacob would keep me safe - they would never have left without me otherwise. He was more worried about what we would be doing with our privacy. He'd tried to force Alice on me as a babysitter, but I refused. They can't only let me make my own decisions when they're around.
"I can always call and have her come and check on you," he said to my thoughts.
No, thank you, I told him mentally. I will be perfectly fine by myself.
"Except that you're not going to be by yourself...." he answered.
Mom and Dad and Carlisle all gave me huge hugs and kisses before piling into Dad's car. I waited outside with Jacob until their car was completely out of sight.
We went into the house and to my room. I turned on some music low and laid out my books for homework. It was Friday, so I technically didn't need to do this yet, but I figured I might as well get it over with.
"Homework?" Jacob asked skeptically, raising an eyebrow at me. "Can't you wait til Sunday?"
"I don't want to think about school on Sunday," I told him. "I want to concentrate on nothing but you after I get this out of the way."
He smiled. "Do you mind if I take a nap while you're working, then?"
"Of course not. I'll wake you up when I'm done."
After I finished with my homework, I headed into the bathroom to take a shower. It wouldn't hurt to let Jake sleep a little longer.
I let the warm water run over my body, washing myself slowly. When I got out, I dried my hair quickly and went to put my clothes back on, but when I turned around, I realized I had forgotten to grab anything to wear. I wrapped my towel around my body and walked to my room to put something on.
Jacob was sitting up when I walked in. My eyes moved across the room towards my closet, but then went back to him. He looked so.... unbearably sexy. I suddenly felt the fire I was beginning to grow accustomed to flaring up in me again - and Jacob wasn't even touching me this time. I made my decision in seconds.
I dropped my towel and it heaped to the floor at my feet. Jacob stared at my naked body in complete shock and elation. I jumped straight onto him and literally ripped his clothes to shreds, kissing him with more force than I'd meant to. He quickly flipped our positions so that he was on top of me.
He pulled his lips away from me far enough to see my face. "Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked.
"Shut up, Jacob," I whispered into his ear.
I woke up in Jacob's arms, wearing only a sheet on top of me. I looked up at him shyly when I realized he was already awake.
"Good morning," he said with a huge smile on his face. I giggled at his expression.
"Did you sleep well?" he asked me, still grinning hugely.
"Of course I did. Did you?"
"Best sleep of my life. You shared all of your dreams with me."
I tried to remember what I had dreamt of the night before, but all I could think about was what we did before we fell asleep.
"What did I dream about?" I asked him.
"Everything that happened last night...... over and over again until you woke up." He kissed me on the top of my head. "You are the bravest person I know."
I giggled at him. "Why do you say that?"
"Because, you practically jumped me, not that I'm complaining."
"Did you, um...... like it?"
"It was perfect, Ness," he said as he playfully ruffled my hair. "Absolutely perfect."
I got up after awhile and reluctantly dressed myself. Once Jacob had seen all that there was to see, I didn't even see the need for clothes anymore. So I put on as little as possible, dressing in a small skirt and tiny shirt. I went to the kitchen, where he was getting him something to eat.
"So what do you want to do today?" I asked him as he crammed food into his mouth.
"I don't know. What do you want to do today?"
"Hmmmmm...... I could think of something fun......" I teased. I had not gotten enough of him the night before.
He finished his hot dog quickly and then swept me back off to my room for a repeat performance.
Later that evening, we laid around lazily and listened to my favorite songs. He held me for hours, not saying much but kissing the top of my head every few minutes. I knew then that I had made the right decision - we were only closer now than we had been before. When the moon was clear, I decided I actually would like to go somewhere.
"Do you want to go for a walk?" I asked him. "It looks like a beautiful night."
"Sure," Jake agreed as he stood up to put some clothes back on. I admired his body in the moonlight - he was like a peice of art. His skin was perfectly smooth and hard, yet soft at the same time. He definitely was perfect.
We left the house and walked around in the trees. The darkness made everything look different, and I liked it in a way. Jacob was like a ball of light sweeping through the forest at my side, lighting everything up in his path.
"Jacob.....would you let me ride on your back?" I had always wanted to ask him, but this was the first time I thought I had a chance.
"I don't know, it might not be safe for you...."
I laughed at him. "Do you really think that anything would happen to me? You spend half your time with me in your other form, and you haven't once raised a paw to me."
"Well, alright, I guess just this once. But you get to hold my clothes," he said smiling. He stripped down right in front of me and handed me his shorts and t-shirt. His body shimmered slightly, and he burst into the giant reddish - brown wolf that I loved. I climbed on top, securing myself by grabbing big chunks of his fur, and said "Ready!"
Jacob in his wolf form was almost as attractive to me as him as himself, but in a different way. Wolf Jacob was huge, at least nine feet on his hind legs. his hair was short now, and a beautiful russet color. There was no way not to be comfortable with him when he was like this; he couldn't speak, and he was like a giant dog.
He came to a clearing and stopped, phasing back quickly after I was off of him. He laid down as he was - completely naked - and I laid down beside of him. We watched the stars as the clouds moved around the earth, allowing us to see different ones at different times. We stayed without moving a muscle for almost two full hours.
"Would you answer me something honestly, if I asked?" he finally said.
"Of course I would."
"Did you like it? I mean, you seemed to, but....."
I placed my hand to his face and replayed my emotions while we had been intimate. He seemed very pleased with this, as a huge smile lit up across his perfect features. He pulled me towards him and kissed me softly, placing his hand over mine on his cheek so that I would know not to remove it.
"I want to try it like this the whole time, next time," he whispered. His words excited me, and my fire blazed white hot yet again.
"Are you sure? It might be a little bit.....overwhelming, you know, seeing everything from two points of view at the same time," I said.
"I think I'll take my chances..." He muttered as he pulled me underneath of him.
On Monday, I had to leave my Heaven to go to school, and I was extremely unhappy about this.
"I'll go tomorrow! I can't be away from you today, not yet," I whined to Jacob. He pulled my face into his chest.
"I know, Ness, but you promised your parents you would go to school while they were gone, and we'll be together again in just a few hours."
Hmmm... a few hours. I could have Jacob again, in a few hours.
"Ooookaaaay, fine," I said, defeated. He probably would have let me stay if I had kept it up - he hated it when I went to school anyways. He hated that all the boys liked to flirt, and he hated it that he couldn't snap them all in two. I wouldn't have let him.
It felt so strange pulling up to the high school. It was almost like I had been on another planet for the past three days, a planet where no one at all existed except for me and Jacob. I couldn't wait to return to this perfect place - in a few hours.
"Hey, Ness!" Brittany called as I walked into my first class. She had spent a few short evenings hanging out with me and Jake recently, and had picked up on his nick-names for me. Pretty soon, she had everyone that would speak to me calling me Ness and Nessie. All except for Anthony, who I was still angry with. He would only call me Renesmee, and he did it every day that he apologized to me again. I wished he would just give it up - it had been over a month ago and if I hadn't let it go by now, I probably never would.
I was secretely almost thankful to him in a way, though. His actions had led to my first fire, even if it wasn't burning for him. If he had never assaulted me that day, I might not have felt it so soon, and then everything would be different now.
"Hey, Brittany," I answered her as she walked over to take her seat in front of me.
"Hey, did you do something different?" she asked me suddenly.
"No, why?"
"You just look a little different, like there's more color in your cheeks or something....."
I blushed and she eyeballed me dramatically and giggled.
"Did you do something you've never done before? With Jacob, perhaps?" she asked me speculatively. One blush ran into the other, creating a weird double-blush. Brittany's eyes got wide as she gasped, "Oh my God, you have to tell me what happened!"
"I will," I reassured her. "But not til class is over, okay." She nodded knowingly. The second the bell rang, she spun around and waited for me to dish it all to her.
"You guys did it, didn't you?" she asked me excitedly after I didn't speak first.
"Yes, we did. Quite a lot, actually," I giggled.
"How did it happen? Where were your parents? Did you like it?" she flung questions at me as we walked from class.
"I don't know how, it just kind of did. My parents are out of town and he's staying with me until they get back. And yes, it was the best weekend of my life," I told her, answering as fast as she had asked.
"Awww, you guys are so perfect together!" she squealed.
The week flew by with me and Jacob spending our nights passionately, and Brittany making my days embarassing. Somehow, she could always tell what I had done the night before, just by looking at me. By the beginning of the next week, she didn't even ask me anymore. She just gave me a look that told me I was a bad girl.
The time for my parents to come back was creeping up way too soon. On the one hand, I wanted to try and get my fill of Jacob before they came back, if that was even possible. But on the other hand, the more we did what we were doing, the harder it would be to hide my thoughts from my father. Random peices of things kept flying through my head at all times: My nails raking down Jacob's back so hard that it made him bleed, the way I moaned his name every night, how we had done things we weren't really supposed to all over my bedroom, the livingroom, the kitchen, the woods....... the list was endless.
After we had had our fun for the night on Friday, I decided to bring up my worries.
"I don't know, Ness. We'll just have to try really hard to not think about it, I guess."
"You know he'll be listening as hard as he can when he's here. It probably won't even take him a day to figure us out."
"It's okay, Nessie," he said as he stroked my bare back. "They told you that you could make your own decisions, and they know what that means. Besides, there's not much they could do about it at this point."
"Just please don't picture me naked if my Dad is anywhere around. That would be really sick, him seeing that."
Jacob laughed. "I will try, but I can't promise anything. Once you've seen something that amazing, it's stuck in your head forever."
I drifted away to dream land as I laid there on top of him, seeing all of my absolute favorite moments of our time alone as I slept.
The day before Thanksgiving finally arrived, and I was more nervous than I had ever been in my life. My parents would be home today. I could tell that Jacob was nervous, too, no matter how he would try to convince me otherwise.
When they finally arrived, I made sure to focus on nothing but them as they hugged me and kissed me and thanked Jacob for staying with me multiple times. We all sat down together in the living room as they told us all about their trip. I listened intently, thinking only of the words they were saying, and trying to picture what all they had done.
Mom had just finished a joke that Dad was laughing at, when all of a sudden, he stopped and looked at Jacob. His eyes grew wide with anger, and Jacob could not look away.
"In the kitchen!!!!!!?????" Dad yelled at him, "And right there on the couch???!!!" Uh-oh. We'd been given up, and now he knew everything.
"Jacob, please go now," Dad said as he rubbed his temples.
"No!" I yelled, blocking his view from Jake.
"He can come back later, Renesmee. Hopefully his head will be a little more clear," he looked up at me. "But I would prefer to not have to watch all of the disgusting things you both did while I was gone."
"Don't say that, Edward," Mom politely interjected. "There's nothing disgusting about it."
"You're not the one watching it," Dad reminded her. "Jacob, please," he said, turning back to him. "You can come back later to sleep." he specified.
I didn't mind. I knew that we wouldn't be doing that with my parents a few rooms over. We'd just have to go to the woods, or to Jacob's house.....
"Renesmee, please," Dad said slowly as Jacob hugged me goodbye. "You are much better than this at controlling your thoughts."
Sorry, Dad. I can't help it sometimes.
