Chapter 28: Alpha
Jacob POV:
By the time I woke up, both of my kids were in the bed sleeping like angels. What woke me up was Nessie climbing out of bed and coming back to take pictures. I can't blame her though, they looked so cute.
“Ooh, I can't wait to get Alice to blow all my pictures up!” Nessie clapped her hands.
“On it!” I heard Alice from the living room.
I looked over at my phone to see the time and then got up. I had to get going to La Push to handle some things with the pack. It's been awhile since we had new members, but since our move down here it would happen sooner or later. I rubbed the sleep out of my eyes and carefully took my arm out from underneath my two little ones. Ness gave me her cute pout, she knew that I would have to make the fifteen minute trip to La Push. I didn’t want to leave her and the kids either but I needed to take care of this. I opened up my arms up to her and she went into them.
“I know, I'll only be a couple of hours.” I kissed her hair.
“This is important, I understand.”
I rubbed the side of her belly and held her in my arms just awhile longer. It’s always hard to leave her, especially when she is carrying our child. I know she is more than capable of taking care of herself but I still tend to worry more than I needed to. Once the little ones started to stir in their sleep, Ness and I separated and I pulled on my shorts and went straight to the bathroom to freshen up.
I could hear Jay getting excited over seeing his aunt and uncle. Chloë sounded just has happy too, I heard her squealing in delight. By the time I came out to the living room, Alice had the kids dressed in Calvin Klein and Chanel. They seemed to be happy in their designer clothes so I bit my tongue about Alice spoiling them. Jasper smirked at me and pretended to ignore my slight annoyance. Good, I didn't need a ten page essay on the importance of designer clothes for babies.
“Uncle Jasper, can you take me to my treehouse so I can show you the masks I made at Nampa and Nama’s house?” Jay asked.
“Sure thing, partner.” Jasper bent down so Jay could hop into his arms.
“I'll be back.” I called off, “Don't have too much fun without me.”
“Good luck, honey.” Nessie gave me my favorite smile.
I hopped into my old rabbit and thought to myself how I needed to get a new car. I couldn't take Nessie’s Range Rover because she would need to take the kids in case of an emergency. Alice took such great care with our stocks that we had more than enough to get a car or two. The fifteen minute drive to La Push went by pretty fast, mostly due to the lack of traffic in the morning. Embry and Quil met up with me at Dad’s house and I could smell Sue’s cooking. Charlie must be here for a baseball game.
I walked into the door and saw everyone huddled on the small couch and floor glued to whatever was going on in the game. Sue paused her cooking and gave me a hug and asked how the kids were doing. It was nice to see her so accepting of the life Leah and I chose considering how Harry died. I think being with Charlie and getting to know Bella helped her find peace with what happened.
“Whatcha making?” I asked.
“Your old man has been dying for a bowl of chilli. And since the boys came over I thought I'd make some.”
Sounds good. Once the game went on commercial, Quil and Embry got up and we went outside to talk. With a good amount of distance between ourselves and the house, we phased and howled to let the rest know they can come in if they want.
