I do not own Twilight or any of the characters
Bella's POV
I can't believe that my mom is here. With her being so close to her due date, or what they believe to be her due date. More importantly, how in the hell did she get permission from Aro to come here? I knew I was crying but I was so happy.
I asked mom, "Mom, how did you get here? How in the hell did you get Aro to let you come? Especially since you look like you might deliver any time now. How long will you be here? Are you going to stay at least for the wedding? Did you know that we were going to get remarried?"
She started laughing at me and it took her a minute to calm down enough to talk, "Baby, you should slow down and let me answer a question before asking another, but here goes. I got on a plane to get here. Yes, Aro gave me permission to be here, even though he believes that I'm here attending your funeral. I'll be here at least for the wedding, and yes, I know all about your plans. Before you ask, Jasper is responsible for me being here. He had Carlisle talk to Aro, and convinced him to let me come; in spite of the fact that he believes I'm due in two weeks. In reality, I'm due any day now."
"Jasper arranged this?" I asked already knowing the answer.
"Of course he did baby. He did more than you realize though. Have you given any thought as to why you were brought here to this island? Do you remember what you always thought your dream wedding would be like, how you wanted to be married on an island? Well, he called me and asked if I knew what you had always dreamed of when getting married. I told him everything that you had shared with me. All you have to do is just get dressed when it's time, and say your vows. He has arranged for you to have your dream wedding." she explained.
It was at this point that I realized that we were alone. She added one more thing that made me blush, "Do you remember how you wanted the man that you would marry dressed? You were very detailed when telling me. Jasper will be dressed as you described it to me, unless of course you would rather him be dressed another way. He wants you to have it any way that you want it; he wants you to be happy."
I needed to find him and let him know just how much I loved him for doing all of this for me. I needed him to know that I have never felt this loved. Of course only mom and Felix have ever done things for me. I was completely overwhelmed by the emotions that I was feeling towards Jasper.
I ran into the house and ran into Peter who just nodded towards the stairs. I ran as fast as I could. Even though I had never been inside of the house before, I just followed the pull. The house was huge, so it took me a couple of minutes to find him. He was in what I'm assuming was his room. As soon as he saw me he opened up his arms.
I flew into them, and told him that I loved him. He kissed me and it was the most passionate kiss I have ever had, even from him. I knew then that I was ready to be with him in every way. As the kiss heated up, I could feel what felt like fire going through my whole body, and it seemed to settle in between my legs. I needed him, I wanted him, badly.
Unfortunately, we were interrupted by Peter and Em of course. They wanted to know where to put my stuff. I told them to put everything in Jasper's room. I had started allowing him to hold me at night. I was thinking that maybe tonight I might just let him do more than hold me.
Mom came in with help from Felix, and promptly told me that I would be sleeping in her room with her until after the wedding. Sometimes, I hate that she always seems to know what happens before it does happen.
After I was done with the unpacking, I took my sleep wear into mom's room. Then I asked her what about Felix. He would be hanging out with the vampires. Since she and I were the only ones who slept, he could just stay with them.
By this time it was late, and I was exhausted. I knew mom would be as well. She did give me an idea that I would need to talk to Carlisle about. We got ready for bed and then lay in bed talking for hours. Since it was believed that I was dead, there was no longer a time limit. Except that the sooner I got pregnant, and had the baby, the sooner the Volturi could be brought down.
Mom had fallen asleep, but I was thinking about what it was going to be like being with Jasper, and making love with him. I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that I was ready. Actually, I was quickly getting to the point where it was starting to hurt even more than it ever has to not be with him.
Mom said that she thought it was because my vampire side was kicking in. Apparently, I was starting to feel what vampires feel when they have met their mates, and kissed them. The need and the desire were becoming increasingly painful. At least I knew some of what Jasper has been feeling.
I finally drifted off but I have a feeling that Jasper had something to do with it. I wasn't going to argue with him because tomorrow would be a busy day. Jasper promised to take Felix, mom, and I on a tour of the island. He was excited about showing us the waterfall that was somewhere in the middle.
Alice had told me that the waterfall was a very romantic spot. Jasper shared with me that it was indeed very romantic, but he had never had anyone to show it to, or be romantic with. Hence; his excitement. Mom offered to let him show it to me in private, but he wanted to make sure that Felix and her knew where it was so that maybe before they left, they could have one last romantic time before the baby came.
When I woke up, mom was already up. She has trouble sleeping because she is so big, and so close to her due date which is actually the day after the wedding. I was worried that something might happen on the way back to Italy, but she just assured me that everything would work out just like it was supposed to.
Esme had cooked a wonderful breakfast, and I was starving. Mom was as well and we both ate way more than normal. I think something about the island helps with the appetite. Felix then carried mom upstairs to help her get ready for our tour. I had already gotten dressed in a very nice sundress that Alice of course had packed for me.
As a matter of fact, Alice, Rose, and Char had packed a suitcase just for me. I had packed my own, but sadly, most of the clothes I had were meant for colder weather. I think that Jasper was enjoying my attire much more than normal, especially since I was showing much more skin than I normally did.
I had found several sundresses, as well as tons of shorts, tank tops, and even a few halter type tops. I was planning on making full use of not only the clothes, but the sun as well. Of course thinking about that led me to thinking about Jasper and I being alone, and the possibility of running around naked. Shit! I threw my shield up quickly so that the vampires couldn't smell the fact that I was now aroused.
Jasper being the closest to me of course caught it anyway. He smirked at me and then winked. I then went beet red, and Jasper started to nuzzle my neck and pulled me close to his body. His hands started to rub my arms and shoulders before starting to make their way towards my collar bone, and was about to go further down until we were rudely interrupted by Peter. He just reminded Jasper that mom was about to come back downstairs. Too bad my shield can't hide us completely.
The tour took a couple of hours but everyone was right, the waterfall was a very romantic spot. Felix promised mom that he would bring her back for some alone time with her. He understood that they couldn't have sex right now, it was too uncomfortable for her, but he could still show her love and affection. You didn't need Jasper's gift to see the love between them.
Whenever they would sit down, Felix always sat behind her and put his hands on her engorged belly, rubbing it gently. He was always so tender towards her, and I was so grateful that she had finally found her mate and accepted him. I knew I would never have to worry about her, he would die before letting anyone hurt her; even the Volturi.
I told Jasper that I needed to speak to Carlisle in private. I led him to believe that it had something to do with mom. Carlisle led me to the beach closest to the house and I put my shield up. I quickly told him what I was wanting and he agreed. He would take care of his side of it later in the evening just before I went to bed.
The rest of the day was spent outside on that beach with everyone. We all had put on our swimsuits, even though mine I wasn't even sure could be classified as anything other than a few scraps of cloth held together by strings. Jasper loved it and was having a very hard time keeping his hands off of me.
I was also having a hard time as every time he would touch my bare skin, I could feel the tingles, as well as what felt like fire go through my whole body, ending in the same place. At one point, Edward yelled at Jasper to stop projecting, he didn't want to end up ripping Alice's swimsuit off in front of everyone.
I think mom was smart enough to understand that it was becoming increasingly painful for both Jasper and I to keep our hands off of each other and made sure we weren't alone. While we both were wanting and needing each other so much so that we both were now in a lot of pain, mom also understood that we needed to wait. We both wanted a wedding first, and then a wedding night.
That night, Felix had to come in and rub moms back so she could sleep. While Felix had carried her the whole way on the tour, she was still very uncomfortable. At least I would have a better understanding of what to expect when I got pregnant. I could have rubbed her back, but he had to stay the whole night doing it. There's no way I could have kept it up for that long.
After Carlisle and I were finished with the surprise I had for Jasper, mom insisted that I sleep with her again. Even though Felix would be on the other side of her she still wanted me close to her. She told me that she only had this night and one more night to do this before I would be spending every night with my mate. She wanted me to be her little girl for at least the short time before the wedding.
The next day we spent once again on the beach. Felix took mom to the waterfall for a couple of hours, and they both looked much more relaxed when they came back. The plan was for everyone to go hunting tonight, since the wedding was tomorrow in the early afternoon. After the wedding, we would have the vampire equivalent of a reception. There would be a small cake, and assortment of food for the two of us that actually ate.
Once the sun had set enough for everyone to not sparkle then they would all be leaving. Felix had been allowed to fly one of the smaller planes from Italy and would be using it to fly everyone to Texas, before flying back to Italy. I was kind of wishing that everyone was already gone; I wanted Jasper so badly that I kept having to put my shield up to keep everyone from smelling how aroused I was.
I did try to help Jasper out again, but he refused to let me. He just kept saying that he would not allow himself to receive pleasure from me until he could return the pleasure. I tried to tell him that giving him pleasure, made me happy but he still refused. At least Em and Peter were behaving themselves, and not teasing me. Although, they were teasing Jasper to the point of him attacking them, all in fun of course. At least until he ripped Peter's hand off.
I had told mom about the 'talk' Em had with me and of course she thought it was funny. She told me that at least he cared enough about me to want to make sure that I knew what to do. I told her that I could have learned what I needed to know from Jasper, without the visuals. She just laughed.
That evening after we ate, and were about to get ready for bed the vampires were all about to leave. Felix made sure that mom was sleeping before leaving. She seemed to be even more restless than usual so it took much longer for her to fall asleep. I was ordered to make sure to call if it got worse or something happened. If only they had known what mom never told them, they would have never left.
I'm not sure how long I had been asleep when mom woke me up. Apparently, she had been in labor for awhile now, I got up quickly and picked up the phone to call Felix. She yelled at me that her water had just broken. I couldn't let her stay on a wet bed so I helped her to the bathroom and had her sit on the toilet. I quickly changed the sheets, and flipped the mattress over.
Then I covered the mattress with a couple of heavy blankets, and then towels. I helped mom get back to the bed, and then was about to call again when she told me that they would never get back in time. She had me go and get scissors, thread and extra towels. Then I had to see if I could find what I would need to clean the baby's nose, mouth, and eyes. Carlisle had foreseen this I'm guessing and had a suction thingy that I could use.
He also had clamps, and surgical instruments, I'm guessing just in case. I grabbed what was needed and got back to mom who was now having contractions that she said was letting her know the baby was about to come any second now. I set everything up and then I did call and told Felix what was going on and that so far mom was doing well. I wasn't doing so well though. I had no clue what to do so Carlisle got on the phone and said he would talk me through it and that they were on their way back. They would never make it.
I put the speaker on and laid the phone down next to mom. This way Felix could talk to mom when Carlisle wasn't talking to me. I got everything ready like Carlisle told me to. Mom had an extremely strong contraction and then she started pushing. I got in place and saw that the baby's head was already showing. This was when I started to panic.
I must have frozen up because it was mom's scream that brought me out of my panicked daze. The baby's head was out and I could see that I needed to support the tiny head. Then, I watched as the baby turned slightly. Mom had stopped pushing, waiting for the baby to turn. She pushed again and more of the baby came out. Mom rested for a couple of seconds and then with one last push, the rest of the baby came out in a gush.
I smiled at mom and then laid the baby on her stomach so I could tie off the cord, and then cut it. Mom was smiling as well. Felix was going crazy over the phone as he couldn't tell what was going on. Mom finally spoke up and said, "I'm fine sweetheart, actually better than fine. I love you, and I can't wait for you to get here and meet our beautiful baby. By the way, congratulations daddy. We have a. . ."
