Renesmee POV

I don’t know how long we laid there with Jake holding me in his lap and us talking. I didn’t care. This could go on forever and that would be fine with me. I had always led a privileged if odd life, but I have never been more content than I was at this moment. I felt complete, finally. It was hard not to want this kind of connection when you lived with four vampire couples. They had a way of shoving it in your face without trying. Not that I begrudge them their happiness and love, but it was really hard to watch. 

I heard a noise off to our right in the dense jungle foliage and saw that Jake had heard the same thing. He reluctantly let go of me and we stood up together. He refused to let go of my hand though. I think he wanted everyone to see and frankly so did I. I might as well just go ahead and get the teasing out of the way now. Emmett was really going to be a drag for a while. Jake laughed and I realized that I had been so focused that I projected without thinking about it. 

“Shut up Jake. He’s going to mess with you even more than me. You don’t have a daddy vamp to take up for you,” I said smiling at him sweetly.

“You are evil aren’t you,” he asked teasingly. We both turned to see Emmett and Rosalie coming towards us. 

“So what’s this,” called Emmett. “Are you two like, an item?” 

“Yes,” I said defiantly. “Jacob finally told me about imprinting and what happened when I was born and how he,” I hesitated blushing, “loves me.” I squeezed Jake’s hand more for my own support than his and he squeezed back and moved a little closer to me. 

“Don’t get your shorts in a twist Ness. I was just asking,” he said looking innocent. 

I wasn’t fooled at all. Knowing Emmett he was probably just waiting for a bigger crowd. He liked to have maximum exposure for his antics. We heard my father’s laughter behind us so I knew I was right. 

“Yes Renesmee, your uncle was waiting for the rest of us so he could try and embarrass you. Em, Alice may see the future but I still wouldn’t bet against my daughter. She seems to know you almost as well as I do and I can read your twisted mind,” my father said walking over to playfully punch Emmett in the shoulder. That instantly brought on a full out match and of course Jake wanted in on the action as well. In no time at all the rest of the group had returned and all of the guys were engaged in a massive supernatural creature wrestling match. Nahuel and Carlisle were the only ones to stand aside. It was a sight to behold.
