At some point shortly after the sun rose, Jake and I both dozed off, it was the most peaceful sleep I'd had since the babies were born. It's amazing to think that you would only trust your children to a houseful of vampires, but that was the exact predicament we were in.. well that and two very scary werewolves, who were never lurking far away from the objects of their imprinting...
Given the lifestyle and challenges to which our children were born into, there was no one better capable of caring for them, they would guard them with their lives, so to speak.
It was no surprise, given our history with the Volturi, that the birth of two such amazing creatures as Elizabeth and Mason, would need to be kept under wraps, it was a very delicate circumstance to say the least.. Surely their could be no more coveted possession, even as Elizabeth's gifts were yet to be revealed, she was amazing and certainly irreplaceable. Any crime towards she or Mason, would be punishable upon the gruesomest of deaths, this I knew for a fact... It was evident in Jake's eyes as well as my own... Unspoken, because it didn't need to be said...
Since their birth, I'd been plagued with images of them, in their billowy, gray cloaks emerging upon us in the very field we'd fought for our existence once before, floating on a cloud of mist..
I would always be thankful for the amazing gift my mother possessed that day, sparing so many family and friends, and ultimately sending them away with their tails between their legs, so to speak..
But, while I admired the subtle, yet powerful gift, I knew my approach would not be so tame, just the thought almost brought a feral snarl to my teeth.. It would be a war, the supernatural world would speak of for centuries, perhaps longer. So on this night, or morning rather, I was thankful for the absence of these dreams, thankful to be in my husband's arms, and now thankful for his lips pressed against my throat..
"Mmm" I muffled, running my hands down his bare back..
"Are you finally awake then?" he asked.
"Mmm Hmm, What time is it?" I asked.
"About ten.." he casually answered.. I stifled a grunt as I realized, I'd missed feeding the babies their breakfast, but I was thankful for this blissful night we'd had together.
"What's wrong?" he asked. I slowly lifted my hand to his throat, showing him their bright little faces, when the image of the smile on my face, mirrored to his as well..
"Well, what are you waiting for?" he asked, jumping up and tossing on a pair of jeans, I giggled running towards the closet...

Fire...
Precise... Unbelievably strong... Fast... Mesmerizing... these were all characteristics set in place to describe myself and my family. But in this moment I felt none of these applied..
Strong... definitely not..weak, I felt weak consumed with heat, a fire I couldn't control, underneath Jake's hands was a fire burning uncontrollably so deep, it was no longer extinguishable..right to the bone, a heat that felt as if it would leave a permanent mark everywhere it spread, but a good burn, I moved.. my body turning towards the burn.. begging for it, I wanted more...
Jake's hands, strong.. sure, every movement calculated, If I could've formed a cohesive thought, I would've wondered if he could read my mind.... I watched as if by magic, his hands of leather turned to velvet as they touched... every movement spreading the fire, burning my skin, but setting my mind ablaze with ecstasy...
Fast.. not in this moment, in this moment slow was good... slower...
Slowly I watched as the muscles of his arm rolled and tensed while he hovered above me gently kissing my lips, light as a feather... slowly I watched the sweat bead up and roll down his chiseled back dripping onto my stomach.. slowly I ran my fingers through his hair, biting his shoulder...
Mesmerizing? I feel as though it would be hard to imagine anyone more mesmerizing than Jake in this moment....surely no one could fit the description better..
Although, I couldn't deny I felt mesmerizing under his gaze... the chills spread and I could feel the warmth of the blush as it spread to my cheeks, especially when his eyes skimmed over the plains of my body, as I tossed my shirt to the floor, Jake gently wrapping his arms around my waist, kissing my neck....
There were no words spoken that night, because there didn't have to be...
The love felt between us hovered in a thick cloud of lust all around us, it lingered in every kiss... every caressing touch.. every movement... every bead of sweat...
There was a mutual understanding of the desire, the need... the hunger was beyond human.. at times more than we both could take...
I lay in his arms, spent barely able to catch my breath as the first rays of sun shown across my bare back, casting a glow on Jake's face.. although chills consumed his body, he was covered in sweat, mine and his... his chiseled jaw set, relaxed with his eyes closed, as I traced my hand across his stomach to his throat, causing him to draw in a deep breath, his lower lip gently quivering while I ran my thumb across his lips...
Despite the lack of sleep, he looked perfectly content... I let my hand slightly fall to his throat....
He opened his eyes, running his hand through my hair and gently kissing my forehead...
It was the only words spoken that night....

It Takes A Village...
I don't know where the old saying originated from, but it still rings true today.."It takes a village to raise a child" well in our case children. I knew it would be difficult, especially considering the certain, shall I say challenges, we've faced since becoming parents, I mean don't get me wrong the babies were wonderful, they were good sleepers, both sleeping throughout the night.. they had healthy appetites, with enough of their father's blood coursing through their veins that the taste for blood wasn't on their lips, they were all around good babies..
But no one tells you how much you'll worry about their mere existence, it's.... crippling.. I felt as though I didn't sleep for the first two weeks of their lives just to pop up throughout the night and make sure they were breathing and still well, I worry about every aspect of their lives and futures, their health and happiness.. everything..
So when Jake surprised me by saying that we were going to have a date night, I was excited but, well I'll say it... worried..
I didn't know if I could leave my babies with anyone else overnight.. and instantly that "mommy guilt" that everyone talks about kicked in and I suddenly knew why so many women walk around sleep deprived, in need of a shower and looking like their going to snap with the kind of fervor that lands them on the eleven o' clock news, but I digress.
Jake... and my family, especially my mother assured me that all would be fine and it was one night of their lives, they were well protected and would be well taken care of, but still their lives were going by so quickly that I didn't want to miss a single moment of it..
I felt a sickening ball of guilt in the pit of my stomach as I walked down the steps of my families home headed for the rabbit. Jake was holding my hand and I knew he could tell I was worried.. (there's that word again)
I sucked in a deep breath and vowed that I would make the most of this night with my husband, just as he stopped me, wrapping my hair in his hands and kissed me with enough passion that my heart skipped a beat, and my bones went to jello... was I still standing?
