They all celebrated after the wedding still outside the Mullen's house. Although the people were few, the noise and mixed conversations were still unavoidable. The couple were taking a sit together watching the visitors dance formally, still with the musical instruments' lead, each having their partners. "This is the first time we talked." Jake said. "What do you mean?"
"We never talked since we got married." He replied. "What are we gonna talk about, then?" She asked jokingly. He first looked at the sky, then back to her. "Let's talk about the kiss, baby." He smirked. "About the what?" Her eyebrows met, wondering.
"How was the feeling kissing me for a very short time?" He said, resting his head on the palm of his hand. "Was it bad that we stopped?" He asked. Her eyebrows became narrower as she looked at him. "Stop thinking of negative things, Jake. Was it really that short? Come on, you should be contented with it." She told him. "Calm me down, then, by giving me another kiss, my queen."
"We're gonna plan a honeymoon, right?" She asked. He smiled, then nodded his head. "I'm gonna give you plenty of kisses soon, then." She answered. "When?" He whispered. "It depends, Jake. We first should prioritize more important things that that." She replied, and automatically thought of how Jake would think of what she told him. "You mean we should help for the giving of birth of Nessa?" He asked, hoping that he was right. "Not just that. We have a lot of tasks to do." She replied.
"Like what?" He frowned. "Look, Jake. Don't you think we should stay here first for the meantime and be with our families? I mean, we should stay and protect them from Fiona as much as we could." She said sensibly. "You're right, Rissa. We should stay here for the rest of our lives." He shrugged his shoulders once as he spoke. Clarissa sighed, and that time started another silence. The silence was soon got interrupted by their friends, whom invited them to dance, thankfully.
Vanessa and Lucas together pulled the newly married couples towards the center, then did a modern dance now. The four of them danced with the other people there, and joined them afterwards. "Isn't this fun?" Clarissa asked, raising her hands then danced her body. Although her dress was making her move limitedly, she always tried to make it better. "Is it confirmed that you'll be giving birth tomorrow?" She asked Vanessa. "Yes, it is. We'll be doing it in the morning so I'll get enough rest."
"That's great! We'll be watching you, though." She replied. The dance went on, and it was later the evening. And that only meant that they had to do their tradition which is hunting. They first ate the food that the Mullens did inside the house, then celebrated. When it was late already, they hunted in the woods for animals.
The night was just so young, no one cared whether what time it was, especially for the vampires who lived with the humans, Vanessa, Lucas, and of course, Clarissa. The three of them were eager to do anything, as long as it was fun and enjoying, no matter how dangerous or late it was. Besides, the best friends were used to things no one usually did during nighttimes.
Vanessa, who was pregnant, was doing her every move very carefully. She was being cautious, not running so fast, and walks slowly. Despite that problem, she still joined the hunting.

The midnight had passed when they were finished celebrating, and everyone was so tired and full everyone had to lay down on their beds. The newly married couples were the ones who were left awake, they were both inside the room. Clarissa was sitting down on the bed, while Jake staring at the window, holding a cup. "Jake, do we have a problem?" She asked curiously. "What do you mean?" He said, refusing to look at her. "We've been here daydreaming about things just to avoid talking to each other." She said, standing up to face him. "Do we have a problem, Jake?" She repeated, walking towards him.
