Chapter 23
Emma's POV
I woke up sweating, and I tried to move, but was trapped by someone's arms. I didn't recognize where I was. Then I remembered what had happened last night, and realized it was Jacob holding me so tightly, I rolled over facing him. I looked at his face, it was so peaceful when he was sleeping.
"Good morning, sleepy head." I whispered to Jacob.
He kissed me very sweetly.
"Good morning," he said, and then he winced as he saw the fresh cut on my face.
"Emma, I'm so, so, so sorry. I'm so sor…" He said but I put my finger to his mouth, cutting him off.
"Stop apologizing. It's not your fault. I went after you into the forest. It's just as much my fault. Stop blaming yourself." I said.
"Thank you Emma, but please, can you forgive me?" he said making a pouting face.
"How can I not forgive you? With that cute face?" I said and kissed his nose. He kissed me back, and with such passion. I wanted him so badly. I kissed along his jaw and down his neck.
"Emma, there are vampires downstairs, one of which could read both of our minds, we might want to stop." Jacob said.
"Jacob, I really don't mind." I said, tracing his chin with my finger.
"Emma, do you think, really, that you're ready?" he asked me.
"Jake, do you love me?"
"Emma, of course I love you." I said, placing kisses along his jaw.
"And I love you. I think for sure that I'm ready. You'll never leave me right?"
"I would never, ever leave you."
"Then I see no reason for us not to be ready. Do you have protection?"
"Yes, of course."
He kissed me, pulling me close to him. He took off his shirt and so did I. He slowly worked is way down to my pant and removed them. He ran his fingers down my sides, I giggled with pleasure. We both dived in.
Sorry this one's short, the next one will be longer.
