Chapter Sixteen, First Christmas

I smiled watching Jasper hold Willow above his head as she cried with laughter. She looked adorable with her pink patterned bow in her hair, matching skirt, pink tights, white shoes, a white bodysuit reading, 'I'm Daddy's girl and my Mummy's world'. That Rosalie had brought her which was true to be honest. I could spend hours just watching the two of them together. I can't believe she's eight months old now and Jasper and I are sharing our first Christmas together.
"Who's ready to open some presents?" Dad shouted up the stairs.
"You look gorgeous darlin." Jasper said turning around Willow now on his hip spotting me in the doorway.

His eyes rolled over the red top, black leather skirt, thick black tights and matching black leather boots I was sporting, a lustful glint shinning in his honey golden eyes.
"Thank you, and you look incredibly handsome." I said pecking his lips looking over his dark wash tight fit jeans, black boots and dark grey jumper that was almost black.
"Why thank you Ma'am." Jasper smirked kissing me sweetly but passionately.

"There you are." Dad smiled as we entered the living room Willow's attention immediately drawn to the lights on the Christmas tree. "Come on. Come on." Dad said excited as we were as it was Willow's first Christmas. Jasper and I sat on the floor Willow in between my legs and Jasper next to us, Dad was sat in his armchair and Bella was in her room refusing to come down.

I knew Dad was getting fed up and would be talking to her after the holidays. It had been a rather busy Christmas so far, and it was only Christmas Day. Christmas Eve we had spent it at the Cullens playing family games and watching films. And tomorrow we would be spending it at the Rez, Jasper was allowed on there if I was with him, but he would be spending it hunting and playing the new games I got Emmett and Dean. As per their demand, stating they hardly played games with Jasper anymore. Which wasn't true as we were round their as much as possible, but that was just them.

Once again Willow and I had been rather spoiled, I dread what her first birthday will be like. Willow had gotten a large assortment of toys, clothes mainly from Mum, the girls (Amelia, Sam, Kristen and Chloe), and Alice, and a baby Walker from Dad. I much like Willow, had gotten a large assortment of clothes  and makeup from them. I had gotten the Cullen crest necklace from Esme and Carlisle, Willow getting the same for when she is older. Jasper had gotten me roses like he did for our sixth month anniversary, as in February it would be our first year anniversary. He had also gotten me a bracelet that matched the necklace Rosalie had gotten me for my birthday.

Rosalie has gotten me my own car which came as quite an overwhelming shock actually especially as it was a black Camaro, she told me it was so I didn't have to use Jasper's car all the time, which I was incredibly grateful for but extremely overwhelmed. Emmett and Dean had gotten Willow and I are own baseball attire that said, 'Newest Cullens' on the back which had made me tear up and thank them profusely much like I did Esme and Carlisle.

Dad had gotten me a t-shirt that had a picture of us at Disney Land in France when I was thirteen standing outside the gate smiling happily at the camera, both of us wearing Mickey Mouse ears. Above the picture he had combined my two favourite fandoms Harry Potter and Disney as it said above the picture, 'After All This Time?' And he had a matching one that said, 'Always'. Above his picture.

"Thank you Dad." I cried happily.
"You're welcome Princess." Dad said equally as happy. "Seems Willow is only interested in the wrapping paper." Dad laughed looking at Willow was playing with wrapping paper and not the new rattle Jasper had opened for which was now laying abandoned on the carpet.
Jasper and I laughed pressing a kiss to Willow's head who smiled up at us before turning back to the paper.
"This is for you Charlie." Jasper said getting up and handing him a rather large box that was from the three of us.

"What is it?" Dad asked curiously taking the box off of Jasper.
"You'll have to open it to find out Dad." I sassed. Rolling his eyes at me a smile playing on his lips as he took off the wrapping revealing a box of brand new fishing gear.
"Guys, thank you. I don't know what to say." Dad said looking in awe from the box to Jasper and I.

"Your welcome." Jasper smiled. "We noticed you needed some new gear so we got some for when you next went fishing with Harry after Christmas."
"Thank you." Dad said getting up and kissing Willow and I and hugging Jasper.
While Dad and Jasper were clearing up the wrapping I set up the Walker so Willow could use it while I dished up the Christmas Dinner.

After the Christmas Dinner, Jasper having to change himself and Willow as they ended up wearing most of her dinner. Dad, Willow and I bundled up in winter coats, snow boots, hats, scarves and gloves followed Jasper who was wearing the same to keep up appearances, went out into the back garden watching Willow as she looked around fascinated at the snow covered garden.
"Look my little love." I said to Willow crouching down and holding her in front of me so she stood on her own feet with my help, as Jasper held out some snow to show her, which of course she tried to put in her mouth making us laugh.

As Dad was walking slowly around the garden holding Willow letting her get a good look at everything, Jasper and I stood wrapped in each other's arms watching them with soft smiles. Willow did something that shocked all of us and made us all incredibly happy. As she looked over Dad's shoulder looking directly at me she cried, "Mama." Holding her arms out to me.
"What did you say baby?" I asked walking over towards Dad, Jasper following looking equally as shocked as Dad and I felt.

"Mama." Willow cried again hitting one hand on Dad's arm as she tried to reach for me.
"Oh you clever girl." I praised almost giddy with how happy I felt, taking her into my arms pressing kisses over her chubby cheeks making her laugh.
"I can't believe she said her first word." Jasper said in awe a wide smile splitting across his face and lighting up his eyes. Wrapping his arms around me pressing a loving kiss to my temple as he and Dad joined in praising Willow.

We stayed out for a few more minutes each of us holding Willow and getting a picture of Willow's first time out in the snow. It truly was a day of firsts. And it was one of the best Christmases Dad and I had experienced in a long time especially as it was the first Christmas I had spent in Forks with Dad without it being clouded in fear due to Jackson. Willow and I were save and loved with Dad and Jasper and the rest of the Cullens and we wouldn't have it any other way.

Once we headed back inside I took Willow up to change her nappy while we changed into warmer clothes as I didn't want her to get sick. Slipping her into her pink tracksuit that had cat ears on the hood and some white thick socks, though I left the jumper off while she went down for nap completely worn out from all the excitement.
"Good night baby." I kissed her head softly covering her with her blanket as she was already fast asleep. Pulling up the side and locking it in place, I grabbed one of the baby monitors heading back into my room after disposing the nappy into the bin and washing my hands I quickly changed into black leggings, thick grey socks and a thick grey jumper.

"Thank you Jazz." I said gratefully taking the hot chocolate curling up on the sofa with him.
"Your welcome my love." Jasper said kissing my lips after placing the baby monitor on the table and covering us with a blanket.
"Willow asleep?" He asked when we pulled back.
"Yeah all the excitement wore her out." I said taking a sip of the hot drink warming up my hands as I snuggled more into Jasper, as he pulled me closer wrapping his arm around me rubbing his thumb on my hip as we watched Christmas movies with Dad.

It truly was the best Christmas for all of us and I didn't need to be an empath to know that Jasper was truly happy, the most he's ever been in his long life. I could tell by his shoulders. That were often tense when at school and sometimes even around his family, but now they were relaxed.
"Are you okay?" I whispered to Jasper.
"I'm perfect my love." Jasper whispered kissing my temple. "I always am when I'm with you. You make everything easier and I'm truly at peace when I'm with you." Jasper whispered kissing me softly.
"Good I'm glad babe. I love you." I whispered against his lips.
"And I love you too baby. For Now and Forever."
