Chapter 3: Feliz Sempre Após Começa Agora
Jake and I had decided to use my 16th birthday presents from my grandparents as well as the Denali coven for our honeymoon. We were going to visit Zafrina. For our wedding gift, my grandparents extended the stay によって two weeks and Tanya had switched the reservations from a hotel to a private シャレー in the rain forest. We got on the plane, hand in hand. I couldn’t remember ever being happier. My family was safe, I was Mrs. Jacob Black, my father approved of it, and Jacob and I were together forever. A smile spread upon my lips at the thought. He looked down at me and returned the smile as he kissed me. I turned to him in concern, “You really don’t mind spending time with Zafrina? I know this is our honeymoon, but I am dying to hang out with her.” He smiled at me, “As long as あなた promise that あなた are mine and only mine every single night,” he growled playfully as he pulled me closer. He leaned in and kissed me so fervently that my ハート, 心 felt as if it was going to explode out of my chest. From the corner of my eyes I noticed that we were not alone. I looked into the eyes of an uncomfortable flight attendant. I pulled away from Jake with a giggle. She gave us our drinks and disappeared with flushed cheeks. I lay my head on his shoulder and placed my hand on his cheek so that we could recount the high points of our beautiful wedding together. The 次 thing I knew we were arriving at the airport for our connector flight. It was still very early in the morning. Once we were settled into our new seats Jake looked at me, “try to go back to sleep Ness, あなた look so tired.” I gave in and slept for most of the flight. I woke up as we were landing.
We arrived at the シャレー just after nightfall. Even in the dark it was impossible to deny its beauty; a lone structure standing in the middle of the rain forest. Jake grinned at me as he carried me through the door. When we got inside I gasped it was perfect. There were lit candles everywhere and rose petals strewn from the door and all the way up on the bed. I laughed to myself, like we would need a roadmap for that, I giggled. Jake set me down as there was a knock at the door. A short, dark-haired man smiled at us tightly as he dropped our bags and disappeared into the darkness. We were completely alone for the 次 two weeks. Once the door shut, he turned to me. I still couldn’t believe that he was truly mine. I walked over to him and put my arms around him, “So what do あなた want to do?” I asked with an impish grin, he smiled at me, “Well, we could unpack.” I looked at him with a wicked smile as I ran my hands over his chest, searching for the buttons to his shirt, “Or we could start our thank あなた cards,” I offered innocently. He smiled at me as he kissed my neck, “that’s a good idea; we really should do those right away.” He 発言しました with mock seriousness. I giggled again, my voice became hoarse as I practically whispered, “Or…” I placed my hands on his face to 表示する him just what I had in mind. He effortlessly scooped me up in his arms his breathing ragged, my breath became uneven as well. I wrapped my legs around him and we slammed into the ウォール as I kissed him fervently. A picture fell and we snorted with laughter. He wrapped his muscular arms around me and his hands moved fluidly over my body. Currents traveled through the nerves wherever he touched me. I felt the primal desire that I usually kept at ベイ, 湾 when I was near him taking over. He kissed my neck and his mouth lingered によって my ear, “Renesmee, I 愛 you,” he whispered. A tiny moan escaped from my lips as we made our way to the bed; tearing the clothes off of each other. The pieces fell to the floor mingling with the rose petals. He lay me down ever so gently on the ベッド and stared into my eyes for what felt like an eternity as he played with my hair. “Mrs. Black, I have waited so long for you.” I smiled back at him as I propped myself up on one arm so that I was facing him, “Then come and get me.” I demanded my voice gravelly with desire. Growling, he fell on 上, ページのトップへ of me キス me all over as he brought my idea to fruition.
We were awake all night, which didn’t affect him any because he no longer needed the sleep, but I was exhausted yet I didn’t want to close my eyes. I had waited so long for this; it was everything I had expected and more. We lay there covered somewhat によって the sheet as the morning sun poured through the room glinting off of his body and dancing briefly over the few 分 sparkles that came off of mine. He lightly swept his fingers across my back as he slowly kissed me. I looked into his eyes and smiled. “So how is married life treating あなた so far?” I whispered. He smiled at me and replied softly, “I can’t complain,” he pulled me closer and kissed me, ending the conversation just like that; as we left off where we had started. Afterwards, I must have fallen asleep. When I woke up the sun was on the opposite side of the sky and was dimming. I felt my stomach growling so I sat up, Jake walked up to me and kissed me, “Morning princess, well it’s not really morning...” he joked. I rolled my eyes at him he always teased me for not being a morning person. He kissed me on the cheek, I looked at the circles that were starting to form under his blackened eyes, “Jake go hunt, seriously.” He looked at me doubtfully, “I don’t want to leave you.” I sat up on the ベッド wrapping the sheet around myself and got up on my knees so that I was eye to eye with him. I put my forehead against his, “if tonight is going to be anything like last night don’t あなた think that あなた will need your energy?” He smirked at me, “my, haven’t あなた turned into quite the little temptress,” he joked. I laughed at him and kissed his cheek. “Are あなた coming?” He asked. I shook my head, “I don’t feel like it, I will get something to eat here.” He made a face; the thought of human 食 just didn’t sit right with him anymore. He looked concerned because I normally wasn’t so quick to eat human 食 myself. “Way too tired to hunt,” I repeated, “Really I’m fine, just go.” “Alright, I will be back soon, I 愛 you,” he 発言しました as he kissed my cheek. “I 愛 あなた too,” I whispered as I bit his ear, “hurry back,” he turned to me and kissed me ardently, “How do あなた expect me to leave when あなた give that kind of a goodbye?” he murmured. I laughed as I kissed the tip of his nose, “All the もっと見る reason for あなた to hurry ホーム my dear,” I teased as I kissed his neck one final time and slipped under his arm and out of his reach. He shook his head at me and then bounded out of the door silently closing it behind him. I stretched and headed to the shower. I looked in the mirror and groaned at my reflection. I looked like hell, my curly hair stood in every direction, and I looked like I hadn’t slept in weeks. I ran some water over my face and headed into the shower, promising myself that I would get some sleep tonight. The warm water felt amazing and gave me my 秒 wind. I toweled off and then wrapping the towel around me I headed back to the main room. I opened my suitcase and shook my head at the contents. Aunt Alice had packed nothing but sundresses, skirts, tiny tanks, lingerie, and strappy heels. I smiled to myself as I snuck over to Jake’s bag and opened it to retrieve my stashed pairs of jeans, sneakers, flip flops and t shirts. My mother had warned me how Aunt Alice had packed for her honeymoon, so I was fully prepared. Just then my cell phone started vibrating. It was Amore, the text read, “Aunt Alice is pissed she just saw that あなた smuggled jeans on the trip with you.” I laughed as I texted her back, “tell her I will wear a dress または two, I promise.” Amore responded, “How is it going so far?” I sent her a smile face and she responded again, “that good huh? Well have fun, we miss あなた guys”. I put my phone down and turned back to the suitcases. At that moment I felt a little homesick. I was used to being constantly surrounded によって my ever increasing family. I found myself thinking about what had led up to the addition of the new members of our coven. Ever since Jake, Seth and Leah changed in order to come to Volterra to save Amore and I they had basically moved into my grandparents already crowded house. My Grandmother was excitedly planning an addition but in the meantime it was close quarters in the “Cullen compound” as I referred to it. My parents allowed Jake to stay at our house (on the ソファー, ソファ of course), since we were engaged they were ok with it. Sue Clearwater and Billy Black had been a little creeped out によって the fact that they were no longer human and for awhile they weren’t welcome on Quileute land. Luckily, a meeting that involved my family, Jake, Seth, Leah, Sam and the Quileute elders put everyone at ease. The treaty was eliminated once and for all. Sam acknowledged the necessity of the change of Jake and Seth in order to save me and Amore. They had imprinted on us so they had to come after us no matter what the cost; even if it meant turning into vampires. He forgave Leah as well as she was looking out for her brother, and being loyal to her pack. Sam had owed her a break due to what he had put her through with Emily Jake told me, and in a weird way he was happy that she had imprinted on Nahuel if it made things easier for her. Our family agreed with the Quileute’s as far as the importance of the protection of human life so we stood on common ground, we all had the same values in that respect. I was so happy for Jake especially. Billy had been furious with him, and almost wouldn’t come to our wedding. Last 分 my mother had a talk with him and he had a sudden change of heart. I was so relieved because it would’ve killed Jake if his father wouldn’t have been there. I slowly brought myself back to the present. I was going to slip into a pair of jeans but opted for one of Aunt Alice’s lacy numbers instead. It was a red レース one piece bustiere that came with a matching lacy ローブ and red kitten heels with feathers. I laughed to myself as I put it on. I even arranged my unruly curly hair into neat curls, placing a red 花 from a vase on the 表, テーブル behind my ear and put on make up. I had to hide those circles, または else Jake would be concerned. Once I was ready I went over to the キチネット, 簡易キッチン and opened the fridge. I noticed gratefully that it had been fully stocked with the few human foods that I would eat. I made myself a turkey sandwich, and had a cup of iced tea. Then I opened the freezer and grabbed a pint of my お気に入り Ben and Jerry’s ice cream, チェリー Garcia. I stepped onto the balcony with it and leaned on the railing staring into the beautiful 星, つ星 filled sky as I ate my ice cream in silence. I had a strange feeling like eyes were on my back and I slowly turned around and gasped at what I saw.

Jake was standing there holding a bouquet of Orchids. I smiled at him, his mouth opened wide as he saw me. He looked me up and down and smiled ,”Nice” he said. I looked down at what I was wearing and then dropped my ローブ off of my shoulders so that he would get the full affect. I smiled at him wickedly, “this little thing?” He looked at me intently, his eyes burning with desire. “If this is what あなた do when I leave あなた alone for a couple of hours, I will make a point to do it もっと見る often”, he joked as he came up and grabbed me. He kissed my neck, “You know I wanted to talk to you, but once again あなた are a master in the art of distraction.” I looked at him gravely, “We can talk, instead if あなた want.” He snorted in laughter as he scooped me up and led me back into our room. The お花 and the ice cream were forgotten as we barely made it back to the bed. It was still dark out, very early morning when we finally found the time to talk. He grabbed me another pint of my ice cream since the first one had melted hours ago. I sat in my レース ローブ in one of the chairs on the balcony, he had a sheet around his waist. “Nice skirt,” I commented. He looked at me with an eyebrow raised, “If あなた want this ice cream あなた should be nice to me. Do あなた really want it,” he teased. I nodded, “I will be good,” I promised. He smiled and gave it to me. I all but ripped the lid off I was starving. He sat down on the chair beside me. “So do あなた remember at the wedding how あなた brought up the topic of children?” I nodded as I devoured my ice cream. I suddenly noticed that he wasn’t as happy about it as he had been originally. I lowered my spoon into the ice cream container and set it down so that I could sit closer to him, “What is it.” His eyes drifted far away. “What if it is not a good idea? あなた do understand that this will be the first of its kind, part shape shifter part vampire and part human. Do あなた think it is even safe? I couldn’t take it if something happened to あなた または the baby.” I held his hand, “Jake it will be fine. Nothing will happen to me.” His face had turned to stone. I knew that he was remembering my birth. My mother had died and he had watched the whole thing. “I’m not her Jake.” I 発言しました quietly. He snapped out of it and looked at me, “But how do あなた know that the same thing won’t happen, Renesmee? I cant lose you.” I looked at him gravely, “Jacob, immortal… remember?” He looked at me darkly, “you mean immortal like James the vampire who attacked your mother…oh wait he’s dead. または hmm, maybe like Riley または Victoria two other ヴァンパイア who attacked your mother… oh that’s right they are dead too. How about Irina, oh yea she’s dead. All immortals that are dead.” I looked at him weakly, “You aren’t going to budge on this are you?” He shook his head. “Not until I talk to your grandfather または until I have some concrete proof.” I felt the tears stinging my eyes and I got up and ran to the bathroom. I locked the door, “Renesmee, come on open the door,” he pleaded with me. I didn’t answer, “Renesmee, I will break this door down with one finger,” I stood up in my fury and growled, “and I will hold it up to keep あなた out so go ahead and try.” He was silent for a moment and then I saw a piece of paper slide under the door. It said: “Peace offering? Why don’t we ask Amore what she sees as far as our future with children?” I sniffed and perked right up that was a good idea. I slowly opened the door and found him leaning against the doorway, “I’m sorry princess, but I have to put あなた first. I always have. I don’t know how to be any other way with you. If Amore sees that it will be alright then we will talk about it, ok?” I nodded and he kissed me. The sun was starting to come up. He looked at me critically, “Nessie あなた look awful.” I snorted, “Thanks.” His eyes became very serious, “Come one lets get あなた to bed.” “But Zafrina,” I protested. He shook his head, “No way あなた need to get some rest, and we still have a week and a half here. Come on.” I was going to fight it but I was so tired I allowed him to lead me to our bed. He laid me down and lay down with me. I placed my head on his chest and he rubbed my hair as I drifted off. I fell into a troubled but dreamless sleep. When I woke up it was the middle of the night again. Jake looked at me and frowned, “You didn’t sleep very well did you?” I shook my head. He stood up, “You were tossing and turning and talking in your sleep.” I looked at him interested, “what was I saying?” His face was ragged, “You were talking about a little girl. あなた kept saying that I took her from you.” I looked down ashamed that I was causing him so much pain. I truly couldn’t help it though. “Let me get あなた something to eat.” He 発言しました changing the subject. I stopped him, “no just come back and hold me.” I begged. “No Ness あなた need to eat something. Maybe we should just go home.” He deliberated. I shook my head, “No, I’m fine I will eat.” I grumbled. He went off to make me a sandwich. He couldn’t possibly understand what I was feeling. When I saw Emily I was reminded of the dreams I had of our baby, a switch had gone off inside of me as it had when the imprinting switched on. I had to have Jake, and now I needed to have this baby. I didn’t care what happened to me, as long as she was born and she was healthy. I knew that I was to have a little girl, as soon as I could coerce my husband. I knew what I had to do. I called Amore. “Hey Ness!” She shrieked . “Shhh!” I demanded “I don’t want any of them to know about this call.” Amore giggled “Ok I will keep it down. Congratulations.” She told me. I rolled my eyes, “Amor, あなた already told us that at the wedding.” Her laughter rang out in peals like a bell. “You are so funny. I meant congrats about the baby.” I gasped. “You knew I was going to call about this?” She laughed, “Ness, I knew at the wedding あなた have a one track mind. Yes, あなた will eventually deliver a healthy baby girl, and she will be fine.” I squealed. Jake came running into the room, “What is it?” He demanded worried. I looked at him smugly and handed him the phone, “I told あなた so,” I hissed. He looked at me in shock, as he spoke in to the phone, “Hello? Oh, こんにちは Amore, uh –huh. Uh-huh,” his eyes widened with curiosity. “And the baby? Uh –huh. And Nessie, she will be ok?” He smiled widely and his eyes glowed with happiness, “Let me talk to Carlisle.” He instructed. “Jake, no!” I hissed. I could just picture my father 表示中 up at the door to get me. He waved me off as he waited, “Hi, Amore saw something very interesting. Ok, I’ll wait.” He put his had over the phone, “Amore is sharing the vision with him”. I smiled to myself as I imagined my best friend turned cousin placing her tiny hands on my grandfather’s face and the excitement that this vision would cause for him and the whole family (well hopefully, I thought in regards to my parents ). Jake focused back on the call, “Uh-huh, so what do あなた think? That was what I told her. Do あなた really think that is enough for us to judge it by? I don’t want her to be in danger, no I know あなた don’t either. Ok, I will tell her”. I threw a 枕 at him “Tell him not to tell anyone!” I demanded. Jake rolled his eyes at me, “Did あなた hear her royal highness?” He snickered. “Ok, yea I will talk to her.” He paused for a second. “Hello again Amore what’s up. I’ll tell her thanks Amor we owe you.” He snickered. “You are just as bad as Seth. Good-bye.” I looked at him through slitted eyes, “What’s the verdict, Judge?” He pulled me up to him, I wrapped my arms around his neck. “Well, your grandfather 発言しました that all we will have to base it on is your mother’s experience with あなた but the fact that Amore can see us all helps immensely. He 発言しました ok, but that he is to be in charge of your care and あなた will HAVE to listen to him. He knows how stubborn あなた are.” I pulled back from him angrily, “I am not stubborn?” He looked at me with an eyebrow raised and I giggled. “Ok, maybe just a little.” I remembered that he talked to Amore again at the end. “What does she want?” He snickered again, “Well, she 発言しました that since あなた already have a name picked out and it has nothing to do with hers she wants to be the godmother.” I looked at him in confusion, “But immortals don’t really need godparents.” He pulled me up to him, and looked into my eyes, “Does it matter Ness? If it will shut her and Seth up they can have the title.” I giggled. “So do あなた still want me to eat?” He brought his face even closer to mine, “Are あなた still hungry?” He asked. I answered him, not blinking even once, “I never was.” The plate fell from his hands as I pulled him back into the bed. The 次 morning when we woke up I was full of energy again. I had actually slept this time. He laughed at me as I bounded around the room, “so what do あなた want to do today?” He asked. I smiled hopefully,” Let’s go and see Zafrina!” I begged. He smiled at me, “Sounds good.” I kissed his cheek and hurried off to take a shower.
