Sorry I've been gone for so long. My life had gotten a little hectic and my writing has suffered. I don't have much time to write anymore and when I do it never seems to come out right. I wanted to give you guys something this Christmas, so here. I don't think it's very good. But if I don't start forcing myself to update, I never will.
Sorry if this one sucks...

27. RECAP
I looked out the window in sadness as we drove away from the cabin. Two weeks had passed in the blink of an eye. My honeymoon with Jacob was over.
Not to say the rest of my life with Jacob wasn't going to be amazing, just that these past two weeks with Jacob… I really got to see just how deep our relationship is.
I even got to see a completely different side of him that I thought I would never see. Big, dominant, Jacob being… not dominant… I blushed slightly at the thought. It was something else to be the one in charge for once.
I'm not entirely sure I liked it. Well I mean, of course I liked it, but… I don't think there's a way to describe it. I am by no means a submissive person but with Jacob… With Jacob I can't help it. I'd rather be the submissive one.
Anyway, we drove away form the cabins rather slowly. It didn't seem like Jacob wanted to go back either.
Although he had a lot to look forwards to. Paul had called him while we were here and said he opened a car garage and offered Jacob a job. He of course accepted, Jacob loves working on cars but it was something he hadn't done much of since he had imprinted on me. So I suppose you could say I urged him to do it.
I didn't want to be the reason he gave up on one of his passions.
Edward had called and actually asked to just talk to Jacob. It was weird. Edward never struck me as the type to want to have random small talk on the phone. Jacob said it was something about Bella, that she has been acting really strange and he just needed to vent to someone. Why he chose Jacob, I'll never know.
For being on our honeymoon, we sure did get a lot of phone calls. We can't forget that call from Rachel. The one that gave Jacob a different look in his eye. There would be times I would glance over at him and he would be staring off into space with this weird look on his face.
I reached over and grabbed his hand as we drove to the airport. "Time to go home, huh?"
He smiled. "Yeah, I guess so. Kinda sucks to be honest."
I laughed, turning to look at him. "Believe me, I know. There is nothing I want more than to turn around right now and go back there."
Jacob nodded. "I know what you mean… But we-well I have a responsibility to go home to."
I narrowed my eyes at him. What's that supposed to mean?"
"Well I have a job to go to now. Unlike someone…" He laughed.
I pulled my hand away and shook my head. "I'll get a job."
He reached over and took my hand again. "No. You don't need to. I'll work. You just stay home… and keep yourself in top physical shape for when I get back from work, all hot and sweaty, ready for some lovin'." His laughter drowned out the song on the radio.
"Maybe you should work on getting in shape for me. I do recall someone needing a lot of time to adjust before I could move at all!" I poked his chest, laughing.
Jacob smiled. "You know, I gotta give you more credit. I had no idea… I mean I'm…" He glanced down to his crotch and then mine. "…and I could barely stand it. I have no idea how you handle me."
I rolled my eyes. "It isn't easy. That's for sure. To be honest, the first time I thought you were going to split me in half."
He laughed hard. "You could've told me to take it easy!"
"I did. You were." I smiled.
Jacob looked over at me and stared lovingly into my eyes. "I love you."
"And I love you. Forever and always." I squeezed his hand.
"Forever and always."
We were silent for the next couple of minutes. I'm not normally one to ruin happy moments, but I needed to ask. "Hey Jake… How come you were so upset about Rachel being pregnant?"
He replied without missing a beat. "Because she's my sister and that means Paul had to have had sex with her."
"That's no reason for you to be sad…"
"I wasn't." He turned to me smiling. "I didn't really know what to feel at first. I felt pretty emotionless when I heard the news."
"Alright." I accepted his answer for the time being. I wanted to dig deeper, but if there's anything I learned from the time I've spent with Jacob, it's not to push too hard, too fast.
There was more to why Jacob acted the way he did.
And I was going to find out what the cause was.
If he wants to have kids… I just want him to tell me so…
