20. SECRET

"Maine? Edward's super secret honeymoon idea was to send us to Maine?" Jacob and I were standing at the baggage claim waiting for our suitcases.

"Come on now, Jake. It's not that bad. I've heard Maine is beautiful. It's sunny, depending on where we go the scenery is fantastic." I spotted my bag, so I grabbed it puling it off of the conveyor belt.

Jacob sighed. "This is supposed to be our honeymoon. We're supposed to go to somewhere romantic and exciting."

I shook my head. He's never going to just learn to live is he…? I looked down and when my eyes landed on my one lone suitcase, I thought about the things I know about Alice. There's no way Alice only packed one bag of clothes for me, she loves clothes shopping too much to stop at one suitcase. Besides, Jacob and I are supposed to be here for two weeks…

Jacob grabbed his bag and put it on the floor. He unzipped the zipper and flipped the lid open.

"What are you doing?"

"If Edward isn't going to tell me where exactly we're going until we get there, I'm going to try to guess by looking at the clothes we've been packed." He looked back down into the suitcase and abruptly started laughing.

"What's so funny?" I could only imagine what Alice had packed for us to wear.

Jacob reached into his bag and pulled out a single piece of paper. He handed it to me shaking his head. "I can't believe that…"

I took the piece of paper and looked it over. Jacob! I told you not to look in the suitcases until you got to where you're going! Love, Alice. "How did she know you were going to look?"

"That's not even the part that gets me. There's nothing in here."

"What?" I looked inside Jacob's suitcase and there was nothing inside. No clothes, nothing.

"She packed me nothing. How did she know I was going to look?" He looked up at me. "Gimme your suitcase."

I handed it to him and he laid it down, unzipping it. Jacob shook his head when he looked inside the bag. I looked inside and it was empty as well, except for another piece of paper. "What does it say?"

"'At this point you wanted to see if Alice packed Terry any clothes. Well knowing you, I figured after seeing you had no clothes, you'd check Terry's bag. Also, you're not even concerned about the fact that there are no clothes, you'd be fine just walking around naked with Terry. You're more concerned with the fact that you can't use what she packed as clues as to where you are going. You're clothes will be shipped to you when you arrive at your honeymoon spot. Now go to the rent-a-car area and get the key to the car I have picked out for you use for the duration of your stay. Call me when you get into the car. -Edward'" Jacob laughed.

I shook my head smiling. "He's good."

"How does he do that? How did he know I'd check both bags? What if I didn't check the bags? We'd end up at wherever it is we're going with no knowledge of our missing clothes." Jacob zipped both bags and picked them up.

"I'm really impressed with Alice and Edward. They read you like a book." Jacob and I started walking to find the rental car place.

Jacob snorted. "They just got lucky."

Once we had found the rent-a-car place, Jacob had a very brief conversation with the man. He gave Jacob the key and lead us to the parking lot, where sat the Ford Mustang Convertible Edward had so kindly picked out for us.

"Alright. Here you guys go." The rent-a-car guy smiled and left.

Jacob and I got into the car and the first thing we did was put the top down. "Much better." Jacob smiled.

"You should call Edward now. We still have no idea where we are going." I was extremely tired from the jet lag. I just wanted to get to wherever we were going.

"Oh yeah, right." Jacob reached into his pocket and pulled out his cell phone. With a few key strokes, Jacob was waiting for Edward to pick up. It didn't take long. "Edward. We're in the car, where are we going?"

I tried to listen to what Edward was saying, but I couldn't hear anything. Jacob looked at me and then put his phone on speakerphone.

"-you just wait and enjoy the suspense?"

"No, Edward, I can't. Terry's tired and cranky and wants to have mindless sex with me for hours on end." Jacob turned to me, smiling.

"Jacob, shut up." I pushed him. "I'm just tired from the plane ride."

Jacob laughed. "Do you see how cranky he is?"

"Alright, alright. Start the car."

Jacob did as he was instructed at the car roared to life. I watched as Jacob's eyes lit up at the sound of the engine. My guess was he would love a muscle car like this, all he had at home is his Volkswagen Rabbit.

"Now turn on the GPS."

When Jacob pressed the power button on the GPS, the screen lit up and a woman voice came out of the speakers. "Now calculating route."

"It already knows where we're going?" Jacob asked.

"Of course. I had the man at the rent-a-car program it for you. That way you still don't know the destination."

I laughed. Edward really liked pushing Jacob's buttons.

"Alright, whatever. Thanks, Edward." He held the phone up ready to hang up as soon as Edward said goodbye.

"Have fun."

Click. Jacob turned to me, smiling wildly as he revved the engine. "Ready?"

I sighed. Here we go…
