A/N: You know I don't write these very often and I'm only writing this one to let you know there is a second part coming to the epilogue, which will jump a head five years and it will be through Jaspers pov.
Epilogue part one
Five years later,
I can't believe it's been five years since I let Jasper back into my life. I gave him my heart, my soul, and my virginity all in one night. The following morning we drove over to Idaho and got married, in a small chapel just outside of Post Falls.
He made me feel so loved and wanted, I couldn't stop smiling. We talked about how we would handle the families if they ever came around. We talked about starting a family of our own, which came sooner than either of us really expected; since it turned out I got pregnant my very first time.
We'd also talked about how I should go back to school to get my master's in education so I could teach at the high school and not at the grade school. I think I'm so much better at teaching older students because of my love for literature, as that was truly where my heart is.
Three days after we were married, I signed up for my fall classes, and ran by the doctors to get on some form of birth control, since both Jasper and I wanted to wait until I'd finish college. Since we'd been having unprotected sex for the past few days the doctor felt I should have a blood test done to ensure I wasn't pregnant, then he went ahead and did my physical. We talked about all the different types of birth control and decided that if the blood work didn't show I was pregnant, I would come back the following day to get my shot.
I went home and waited three hours for his call. I was so nervous. When the call came in I just sat down and cried. What was I going to do now? I'd just ruined all our plans. I was still crying sitting on the floor when Jasper came home.
He held me as I cried and told him I screwed up all our plans. He kissed me and said we'd just have to adjust. He told me how much he loved me and did already love the child that was growing inside me.
My pregnancy seemed to drag on, as I was sick almost all the way to the end. I resented the baby for ruining my life, but that all went out the window the moment I held JW as we ended up calling him short for Jasper Whitlock the second. I learned at that time Jasper didn't have a middle name.
He's just a miniature version of his dad.
When JW was four months old, I went to Seattle to sign up for my classes and to check out the daycare centers close to the college. I walked into one and was shocked to see Rosalie. I decided to play nice and see what she had to say for herself. I mean we had not heard one single word from any of his family and I very much doubted they even knew Jasper and I were married.
I was right the first words she said when she recognized me was "Mom and Esme will be so please to know you really did move on. Don't know why we put up with your sorry, pitiful act for as long as we did."
I was proud of myself for not crying. I just politely told her she could go to hell and would never get to know her nephew. I turned and walked out, walked to my car drove back home, pulled up to the police station and informed Jasper what Rosalie had said as well as what I had said.
He kissed me, told me I did the right thing. That night he got the first call from his mom. I'd never heard him so angry before. In the end, he told his mom to never call him again and that she wasn't the person he thought her to be. He also informed her that JW and I were the only family he'd ever need.
Well that wasn't really true because I went off the shot just three months shy of graduating with my Master's in American as well as English literature. It didn't take us long to have Natalie Maria Whitlock. She has his steal blue eyes, but everything else about her was me.
Even though tomorrow is our actual anniversary we've always celebrated it the night before, the night I finally admitted I didn't have to be alone, I had him to love me. Tonight was going to be special in more ways than one; with both children napping I wrapped his present carefully.
I hadn't been feeling well over the past couple of weeks. I don't know why it hadn't occurred to me what was going on, but I just believed it was the stress of finals. It being my first year teaching and I had a class of each grade, so I had to prepare four different tests. It was my new best friend Angela who convinced me what was really going on. I guess she noticed a few things, which I hadn't.
I was blown away just a few days before when Ang took me to the doctor on our lunch break. She was right, I'm pregnant and this time with twins. Over the past, few weeks I've ran my finger over the picture at least a thousand times if not more.
I wonder what they will look like are they male or female or one of each as the doctor explained they are fraternal. I know Jasper will be happy. He did say he wanted a big family. I told him I would give him as many children as he wanted.
I never could grow tired of my husband. I never knew I could love any one as fierce as I do him. It's a big plus that he's so damn sexy. All the women in town still flirt with him even though they know he only has eyes for me. Just thinking about him makes my hot and wet.
I ran my hand over my still flat stomach as I walked down the stairs, to start dinner. I knew JW and Nat would be up from their naps soon. This house just won't be big enough for all of us. I looked around and tears started to flow. I've lived in this house most of my life. I don't want to live any where else.
I sat down on the bottom step as I started to shake. I'm not sure how long I cried. I didn't even hear JW wake up, I just felt his arms wrap around my neck, as he said, "Mommy why are you crying?"
"Mommies happy and sad at the same time baby," I said.
Nat joined us crawling up on my lap. I knew then that everything would work out. I have the love of a good man and two beautiful children and two more that will make themselves known before long.
"Cars mommy Cars," Nat said pulling my hair.
For just being eighteen months old Nat enjoys the movie Cars and can watch it over and over. I slowly rose off the step with Nat in my arms and walked into the living room, sat Nat in her daddy's chair, since it's her favorite place to sit and watch movies. I then placed the movie in the DVD player turn on the TV, so Nat could watch her movie, while I went into the kitchen to make dinner.
This being a special night I was making one of Jasper's favorite meals Chicken Fried Steak, Mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, and homemade gravy. Living in Texas, he learned to love many Southern foods, so I learned to cook them all. I've also learned to enjoy them.
As I started to peel the potatoes I remember the first time I meet his best friend Peter and his wife Charlotte, who is the person who taught me how to cook all the Southern dishes Jasper loves. They are great people and are the closest thing we have to family.
In fact that will be Jasper's second present. Char called today and told me Peter got a job as Sheriff of Port Angeles, so they will be moving out this way in a few weeks. Char called knowing what this day was and thought it would bring Jasper even more joy on this day.
It will be good to have them so close. Peter and Jasper met at West Point, so they've been best friends for over thirty years. With Angela and Char, I never feel like I'm a temporary friend. I know our friendship will last us the rest of our lives.
I was just plating the Chicken Fried Steak, when I heard the front door open and Nat jumping off the chair, screaming daddy, daddy. She was truly a daddy's little girl if there ever was one. As I sat the plate down on the table, I could hear her giggles.
Hearing them made me smile, feeling loved.
"Go finish your movie sweetness and I'll say hi to your mommy," I heard Jasper say as I finished plating the corn.
"I swear you get more beautiful as each days passes and right now you're so radiant," he said as he placed his arms around me and kissed the side of my neck.
I push back into him needing, wanting to feel all of him.
"Keep doing that woman and I'll take you right here in front of your kids," he growled.
I felt my skin get hot and a pool of wetness hit my panties. The things this man does to my body, with just his words.
"Lets eat, bath the kids, and then you can have your wicked ways with me," I whispered trying to not giggle.
I got a nip on the neck then he was gone.
"Kids wash up for dinner," I heard him say.
Over dinner, Jasper asked how our day was and was I enjoying the start of my summer break. I told him with two kids constantly on the move my summer break wasn't going to be long enough. I love my kids dearly, but their energy level seems to never stop and it's harder and harder to get them to take naps.
We all laughed when Nat dropped her steak on the floor and started crying. That girl loves steak cooked any way, and even with more on her plate, each bite size piece was needed. She eats with a spoon and her hands, which I don't mind since she'll be taking her bath, then one more movie and then bed.
Jasper cleaned up the dinner dishes as I bathed Nat and then got the tub ready for JW. He felt he was a big boy and didn't need mommy to bath him any more, so I just fill the tub let him climb in and then leave just standing outside the door for a few moments then Jasper always says, he needs to pee and goes in and makes sure JW is alright and cleans himself.
As soon as both kids were bathed we sat down to watch a Disney movie, I really didn't pay attention to it, so I can't tell you what one Jasper put in. I spent my time watching him with his kids. He's such a great dad. You can see all his love in his eyes as he talks with him and acts out the movie to make them giggle.
At least meeting him was a good part of coming to Forks as a child; it still hurts even after all this time to learn his family as well as the Cullens only befriended me out of pity for what had happened to me. I'm thankful that Jasper's love for me means more to him then his own family.
I came back to earth as Jasper picked up a half asleep Nat and told JW, "Off to bed with you."
I followed them up the stairs, first kissed JW and told him to have sweet dreams then kissed Nat and told her the same. I hated that the two of them had to share a room, but this house only has the two bedrooms, just one more point to it being way too small for all of us.
Jasper and I walked back downstairs hand in hand. It was now time to give him his presents, but which to give him first.
As we rounded the bottom step to go into the living room I saw the picture of Char and Peter, with their three kids and knew that was the news I was to share first.
His eyes light up with such joy when I told him, he kissed me, igniting that flame inside me. I then handed him the little box I've had sat on the table earlier in the night. "We said we weren't getting each other presents this year," he said with amusement in both his eyes and voice.
"I didn't spend any money."
He stared in the box for the longest time not saying anything, when he finally looked up from the box his eyes were watery, his voice was shaking as he whispered, "Twins." He pulled me into him and kissed me with such passion I felt like I was soaring above the earth.
His hand ran down my back then slid around and rested on my stomach, whispering, "Thank you," into my ear.
From there he picked me up and carried me up the stairs and into our room. He was so gentle with me as he slowly undressed me kissing each new spot of skin that was revealed. This is what love is all about. Showing it to where the other person has no doubts about that love.
He laid me on the bed then striped off his clothes, before joining me. The kisses started all over again. I wanted and needed him inside me, but at the same time I relished each and every touch and kiss he is gave me.
When he finely settled between my legs after teasing me making me so hot and wet he slid in and I feel like I was falling over the edge, he told me not to come yet. He's thrusts are slow and deep our eyes are locked onto each other. There could be no doubt the depth of his love for me. When he finally tells me to let go I do screaming his name, followed by him calling out mine.
He rolls to the side and pulls me tight against him. He tells me just how much he loves me and that tonight was perfect as is every night with me.
