The Flower and Major

Part 51

I sighed as I straddled Jasper's lap. Rosie was over at Bella and Edward's cabin for a sleepover with Renesmee. I leaned in pressing my face into Jasper's neck while he gently rubbed my back. 

"I'm scared, Jasper." I whimpered. "I don't want to lose anyone." 

"I know, Suga." He says into my hair. "I know, have you had any visions?"

"Not recently." I mumbled. "It's like I can't see into the future anymore." 

"It can be due to the stress." Jasper says kissing my hair.

I sat in the passenger seat of the Volvo. Bella was driving while Jake and Paul sat in the backseat with the girls.

"I'm surprised you took a break from Jedi training." Jacob spoke up. 

"If we don't take the girls to our Dad, he'll come to us." Bella says to him.

"Dad can barely manage being around all the Cullen's at once." I add. "I honestly think he'd have a heart attack being at the house now." 

"I know that's what you told Edward." Jacob says catching onto the lie. 

"Jake man, just leave it." Paul sighed. "You don't have to know everything." 

"Whatever." Jacob groaned. "I'm just glad to get away from all those reeking bloodsuckers." 

I scoffed at Jacob turning to look out the window.

"I'm sorry, I know." Jacob says. "They're the good guys. But come on, Dracula one and two are creepy." 

"I don't trust those two." Paul agreed. 

"Me neither." I whispered. 

We pulled up outside of Dad's house. I smiled as Renesmee and Rosie quickly climb out of the car and runs towards Charlie and Sue as they come out of the house. 

Charlie caught both of the girls in his arms spinning them around.

"Ow, wow, look at you." He grinned. "You've both grown half a foot! Seriously, like six inches." 

"Come on inside." Sue smiled. "Lunch is on the table." 

"We also got a tree decorated." Dad smiled.

"We've actually got a few errands to run, guys." Bella says.

"We'll be back soon." I looked toward Rosie as she nodded with a small smile on her face before turning her attention back to Charlie, poking at his mustache. I huffed a laugh climbing into the car with Bella.

"Maybe she has a plan for us." Bella spoke as we drove through Seattle. "Maybe J. Jenks was the key." 

We parked outside the restaurant that we were meeting J. Jenks at. Bella and I climbed out of the car heading inside the fancy restaurant. We stepped up to the host who gave us a friendly smile.

"Hello." I smiled. "We're meeting Mr. Jenks." 

"Right this way." The host smiled leading us to a secluded table.

An average height, dark skinned man was sitting at the table. He gave us both a friendly smile.

"Mrs. Cullen." Jenks greeted. "Mrs. Hale." 

"Hi." Bella smiled awkwardly. 

"Hello." I greeted as we sat down across from him. 

"I'm so happy you called." Jenks says. "I always meet my private clients here. It's more comfortable than the office." 

"And it's more public." Bella says causing me to lightly nudge her. "What type of word do you do J?" 

"Oh, you know, this and that." J stated. "It's always different, which keeps it interesting." 

"Have you known Alice and Maggie long?" I asked him.

"I've been working with them for more than twenty years, along with your husband, Mrs. Hale." J explained. "And my late partner knew Jasper fifteen before that. He is, uh, unusually well-preserved." 

"Yes, he is." Bella says causing me to playfully roll my eyes.

"I vaguely remember Jazz telling me a bit about you." I say.

"I trust Ms. Maggie is enjoying her vacation." J says. 

"She didn't tell you where she was going, did she?" Bella asked.

"No, no, no, she just mentioned that she was leaving when she came by to place her order." J says. "Along with asking me to not mention anything to Jasper." 

"I assume that her order is ready?" I asked him. 

"Of course." J nodded. "I've never been late with a delivery." 

J slides an envelop towards Bella and one toward me. I opened mine and find forged passports and documentation for Rosie and Paul. I glanced over at Bella's to see she had the same thing but for Renesmee and Jacob. 

"There a problem?" J asked. 

"No." I shook my head.

"Our husbands and us thought we'd all be traveling together." Bella lied. 

"Maggie said only four was traveling." J explained. "Her instructions were very clear." 

I put the documents back into the envelop while gently gripping Bella's hand grounding her. 

"It's our mistake." I say. "Apparently, that's not going to happen."

I was driving us back to Forks. The car was silent as he took in what just happened. 

"At least the girls will have futures." I tried to brighten her mood.

"But we won't be apart of it." Bella whispered, pain.

We all walked into the house. I smiled as Rosie rushed over to Jasper climbing into his lap as he gave her curly hair a kiss. I walked over to them pressing a kiss to Jasper's lips as I took a seat beside him. I hope it doesn't end badly.
