8 months later...

When Renesmee walked through the door, Jacob greeted her warmly. "Hey, baby! How was the last day of school?"

Renesmee nodded absently. "What?"

Jacob ducked his head down and searched for her gaze. "Earth to Ness. Where are you?"

"Sorry," she replied, pausing to give him a hug. "It was a long day."

He pressed his lips to her neck and smiled. "Wanna take a nap with me?"

"That sounds amazing," she replied dreamily.

Jacob swept her up in his arms and swiftly carried her to their bed. "We better set an alarm, we have to be ready for dinner by six," he reminded her.

"Dinner?" she echoed.

"Paul and Rachel's rehearsal dinner is tonight. Did you forget?"

Renesmee sighed as he lovingly placed her on the bed and crawled around to snuggle her from behind. "I didn't forget...I just got...distracted," she chuckled as he unhooked her bra.

"Tomorrow they'll get married and next month, it's our turn...finally!" Jacob excitedly squeezed her breasts and she laughed.

"I thought this was a nap," she teased. "Seems like you're trying to seduce me, Mr. Black."

"Of course I am," he breathed into her ear as he pushed her panties aside and slid a finger inside her.

She rocked against his hand and gripped his thigh. "Too many clothes," she managed to eek out between moans.

He stripped quickly and positioned himself behind her. She tilted her head towards his mouth and kissed him as he entered her. She moaned against his lips as he gripped her hip with one hand and held her breast with the other.

They rocked together slowly, their lovemaking languid. Jacob had kept his promise that there would always be butterflies and tingles and electricity between them. They acted like teenagers, always sneaking off to be alone together. It was always exciting, this love that they shared, but Jacob was ready to make it official. For him, their wedding day couldn't come soon enough.

They fought when Nessie said they had to wait for Paul and Rachel to get married first, especially when Rachel wanted to wait until the end of the school year. But Jacob gave in, as he always did when it came to his Ness. He could never deny her anything she ever asked for and he never would.

"You feel so good," he murmured as she ground her hips against him and teased him to the brink.

"I love you," she murmured quietly as her orgasm took hold. He held her as she quaked and he buried his nose in her hair.

He quickened his strokes and tumbled right after her. They stayed wrapped up in each other, neither one wanting to break their incredible connection.

........

"Is that what you're wearing tonight?" Renesmee teased when Jacob entered their room in nothing but his boxer briefs.

"I'm waiting until the last second to put on that suit. You know how hot I get."

Ness nodded as she stood and crossed the room. "You are so hot...lucky me."

"Why are you picking on me? Is this what you're wearing?" he asked as his eyes scanned her body. "I mean it's cute and all, but I'm sure this restaurant has a dress code."

Renesmee twirled around in her lacy bra and panty set. "You actually want me to wear more clothes?"

Jacob growled playfully. "If we were staying home tonight, this would be too many clothes, but I think you're underdressed for Port Angeles."

She pretended to pout. "Well I guess we should get dressed then."

He groaned. "Clothing is overrated," he breathed as he pressed her against the wall and covered her neck with kisses.

"Jake...you know we don't have time for this," she protested weakly.

Jacob slid his hands under her backside and she wrapped her legs around his waist in response. He captured a nipple between his lips and teased it until she couldn't take it anymore. "I want you," she mumbled against his shoulder.

She gasped when he pushed her panties aside and he buried himself inside her again. He wasted to time bringing her to her climax and watched her face when she did. Like always, he held off his orgasm until he knew she was sated. She gripped his shoulders tightly as he rocked faster and teetered on the edge. "Come for me, Jacob," she begged and that was all it took.

.......

Jacob beamed brightly as Renesmee twirled into the living room, showing off her new dress. "Well?"

"Gorgeous," he gushed. "The most beautiful girl in the world."

She blushed when he took her into his arms and kissed her passionately. "Well then I'm a perfect match for the sexiest man in the world," she replied proudly when he broke off the kiss.

They heard the limo horn honk and made their way outside. "I think it's gonna be a great night," Nessie sighed as they linked arms.

.........

By the time they reached the restaurant in Port Angeles, Jacob was ready to go home. He could barely keep his hands off of his lovely fiancee and it was torture. Nessie was back to being distracted again, which had him worried that something was really wrong.

He suffered through the rehearsal and then dinner, which was tasty but loud with the whole pack there. The first chance he got, he pulled Nessie to the dancefloor and held her close as they swayed together. "We should elope," he announced suddenly. "All this fuss, it's so ridiculous."

Renesmee nodded. "Sometimes when my mom and my aunts try to take over our wedding plans, I feel like eloping is a good plan."

"Oh don't tease me," Jacob gushed as he spun her around. "I'd marry you right now if I could."

Renesmee gripped his shoulder as the color drained out of her face. "I'll be right back."

The pack watched as Renesmee rushed to the bathroom. "Too much to drink?" Rachel quizzed as Jacob approached her looking nervous.

"I don't think so. Her champagne is untouched," he observed, pointing to her glass.

Rachel smiled. "Oh."

"What?"

.......

Jacob waited outside the ladies' room door impatiently and worried himself as he considered what was wrong with her. When she reappeared, she guided him to a nearby balcony. "I just need some air," Renesmee explained.

Jacob wrapped his arm around her and watched as she took a few deep breaths. "We should go home. I'm so sorry you're sick."

Renesmee nodded. "We probably should go, but I need to tell you something first."

"Let's sit down," Jacob suggested, motioning to a nearby bench.

When Nessie turned to face him, she held his hands in hers and a single tear slid down her cheek. "Something happened to me today," she began. "I'm okay. I need you to listen to me and be calm, okay?" Jacob nodded in agreement. "Promise?" He nodded again, even though his expression revealed just how worried he was.

Renesmee sucked in a deep breath and swallowed thickly. "I had a visitor today at the school. Aro came to see me."

Jacob's eyes grew wide and his jaw clenched. She squeezed his hands and smiled sweetly. "Calm?"

Jacob sighed. "I'm sorry, go ahead."

"I was in the storage closet, returning some supplies when I fell off a stepstool. Aro was suddenly there and he caught me. And yes, I'm fine and no, I'm not hurt." Jacob gave a relieved sigh, holding his hand to his heart.

"So just like you're probably wondering, I was trying to figure out why Aro would reveal himself in a place like the school and why he would be visiting me after all these years. He said he knew we were getting married next month and he wanted to wish us well."

Jacob furrowed his brow and scowled. "He has a problem with you marrying me?"

Renesmee shook her head. "No, not at all. He was more concerned about me. He wanted me to know that I'm carrying precious cargo and I should be more careful when climbing step stools."

"Precious cargo?" Jacob echoed absently.

Nessie pulled Jacob's hand to her stomach and smiled. "We're pregnant, Jacob."

"We're taking Aro's word for it?" Jacob asked incredulously.

"No," she clarified, unshed tears glimmering in her eyes. "We're taking Grandpa Carlisle's word for it."

Jacob beamed. "So it's for sure...and you're okay?"

"I'm a little sick, but that's normal, you know?"

"Oh my, Ness! This is an incredible!" he gushed, pulling her into a giant hug that he immediately had to dial back for fear he would crush her.

She held his face in her hands and showed him the memory of Carlisle confirming her pregnancy. "I'm sorry I didn't say something earlier but I didn't want to overshadow Rachel's big day."

"Too late for that!" Paul called from the balcony doorway. The pack and their imprints flooded in to wish the happy couple well. They boisterously predicted the sex of the baby and Nessie revealed it was too soon to tell. She honestly wasn't sure when she was due either, but she was too happy to worry about the details.

"I'm so sorry, Rachel," Renesmee apologized when it came time to hug her soon-to-be sister-in-law.

"Don't you apologize to me, Nessie. I know how much you've wanted this," Rachel replied softly. Rachel really did know. Renesmee had confided to her about their problems conceiving. This was a big deal and Rachel couldn't be any happier for them.

.......

Jacob had decided not to take Renesmee home after the rehearsal dinner. The wedding was being held at a nearby hotel and all the girls were staying the night so they could get ready together. Jacob couldn't stand the thought of being away from her now that he knew she was pregnant. He wanted to be there in case she was sick. The need to protect her had increased by a thousand percent once he found out that she was carrying his baby.

They decided to get their own room together and she was excused from the slumber party that the bridesmaids were having. The girls understood that they needed to talk and celebrate. This was a really big deal for them.

After a long soak in the bathtub, Jacob lovingly dried Renesmee's body and carried her to bed. When he rubbed her feet, she purred. "You're spoiling me, Jake. You're too good to me."

He laughed. "You deserve it all...anything you want."

She watched his face as he massaged her. She rolled onto her stomach and pointed to her back next. "You're really enjoying this, aren't you?" he mused.

"Oh, yes," she moaned. "You have magic hands."

Jacob smiled. "Well, thank you. Maybe I've found a new profession?"

"Now way," she argued playfully. "These hands are only for me."

"You got yourself a deal," he teased, pulling her on top of him and burying his fingers in her hair.

He kissed her softly as she pushed her hips forward and she felt his hard length beneath her. She teased him with just a little of her wetness and then she moved, allowing him to enter her fully. They rocked together slowly until she arched her back and he captured her nipples between his fingers. She pushed harder against him, the friction increasing with each stroke.

She held her orgasm at bay as long as she could, loving the way his body felt under hers. She called his name when she just couldn't wait any longer. She panted heavily as the waves pounded through her, forcing Jacob to climax right along with her. They held each other desperately and kissed each other passionately as the quaking subsided.

As Renesmee rested her head on Jacob's chest, she felt his heart pounding. "I hope you still want me like this when I get huge," she breathed against his skin.

He held her face in his hands and forced her to look into his eyes. "I can't ever imagine not wanting you," he admitted.

She laughed. "I'm gonna remind you of that when I can't fit through the doorway," she joked.

He rolled her over to his side and she nestled against his body. "You're so beautiful, Ness. And being pregnant with our child makes me love you more than I ever thought I could. We're a family now."

They stayed awake talking about names and the nursery he would build and wondering if this child would have any of their special gifts. And they fell asleep wrapped up in each other and they dreamed of their future together, the one they had worked so hard to get. And just like the love they felt for each other...it was perfect.

The End
