"Jasper" Maya giggled as he pinned her up against a tree. "Someone will come looking for us and see" she warned.
Jasper laughed against her neck as he gently nipped at it. "Something tells me you might not mind if we were discovered. If someone saw just how thoroughly I please you."
She laughed at that, a breathless one that mingled with her gasps of pleasure. "I love you cowboy. I don't say it enough, but I really truly do."
He pulled back to grin at her, the crooked one that always made her knees weak. "I know Darlin', I love you too." He kissed her then, filling it with love and passion as he removed most of their clothes and lifted her up so she could wrap her legs around his waist.
Her hands tangled in his hair as she deepened the kiss, pulling him closer with all her strength. She broke off suddenly though as he sank into her, going as deep as he could in one thrust. She threw her head back at the sensation, her lack of breath being the only thing stopping her from shrieking in pleasure and shock.
"Jesus. It feels like I haven't been in you in forever" Jasper moaned as he felt her walls wrap around him and squeeze as he quickly began to move.
"Blame Alice" she told him breathlessly as each thrust of his pushed her up against the tree, pinning her in place and knocking the wind out of her.
Jasper growled at the reminder, slamming into her harder in response. She lost what remained of her breath at the feeling and clung to him, desperate for something to hold onto as they both lost themselves to the pleasure. Before long she could feel both of them nearing their climaxes. Winding her hands up into his hair, she tugged, pulling his head back so she could connect their lips together. As they both came they swallowed the sounds of each other, continuing to kiss even as they came down from their high.
When at last they finally pulled apart, Maya drawing in much needed gasps of breath, Jasper rested his forehead against hers. "Let's run away" he told her.
Maya giggled, "I don't think Alice will let us get away with that."
"You're darn right I won't!"
Both of them whipped their heads to the side to see Alice standing there, hands on hips as she glared at them.
"Alice" Jasper growled, moving so his body blocked her view of Maya. The only one who should be seeing her like this was him.
"Honestly you two, how am I supposed to plan a wedding if the help sneaks off for sex every time I turn my back on them?" Alice asked in exasperation.
"Sorry?" Maya said, not a hint of remorse in her tone or on her face.
Alice just screeched in frustration. "You two go grab what I sent you for! Break time is over!" she yelled before turning to march back towards the house. Whipping back to face them just before she was out of view she pointed an accusing finger at them, "and if you even think of running off to have sex again and waste more time you won't like the consequences!"
When she was finally gone, Maya let out a giggle as Jasper just sighed. "How long do you think she was standing there for?" Maya asked.
Jasper just groaned, "I don't want to know."
Maya just laughed at the look she saw on his face before he buried it in her shoulder. "There there love, at least she waited until after we were done to interrupt."
Jasper snorted, "Small blessing." Reluctantly lifting his head back up he helped lower her back to ground from where he still had her pinned to the tree. "Come on Darlin' we best get moving before she decides to come back for us."
Nodding in agreement, Maya quickly fixed her clothes and followed Jasper as they went to grab the downed trees that they had made into benches and would be using for seating during the ceremony. They arrived to find Emmet, Rosalie and Carlisle also there, grabbing their own loads to carry over.
"Well what have you two been up to?" Emmet asked, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively as he took in Maya's messed up hair and the still healing love bites on her neck.
"Don't even think of trying it" Jasper warned Emmet, feeling his emotions shift as he looked over at his wife. "Alice has threatened to do her worst to us if we don't focus on getting this wedding set up."
Maya nodded in agreement. "She called us the 'help'" she added helpfully.
Emmet laughed at that as Rosalie rolled her eyes and Carlisle smiled. "Why are we even holding this wedding again?" Rosalie asked frustrated.
"Rose" Carlisle warned.
"What?" Rose defended, "they're not mates, so we all know the moment that one of them meets their mates this marriage is over."
"Yes, but that doesn't mean we should deny them this happiness now" Carlisle told her kindly.
"Yeah Babe, if I had been found by someone else and turned by them, wouldn't you want me to be happy with them until I met you?" Emmet asked. "Divorce is a thing they can worry about when they meet their mates."
Rosalie snarled, "if you had been married when I met you, you wouldn't have had a chance to divorce her. I would have just ripped her apart."
Emmet gasped dramatically and sped over to wrap her up in his arms. "Aw you do love me!" he yelled, swinging her around.
The three spectators just laughed and shook their heads at the antics of the couple.
When the two finally finished their moment, the group picked up various trunks, benches, and stumps to carry back to the house.
"Does anyone have any idea how these go together to make the seating arrangement?" Maya asked as they walked.
"I'm sure Alice will tell us" Carlisle reassured her.
"That's what scares me" Rosalie muttered.
They came out of the trees to see Alice attempting to teach Bella to walk in heels, the shoes scrapping against the wood of the deck with every step the human took. Noticing them, Bella shot them all glares as if daring them to say anything.
"Where do ya want em' boss?" Emmet asked, ignoring the human.
"On either side of the aisle" Alice told them offhandedly, still watching Bella's attempts at walking and trying not wince.
"What aisle?" Rosalie asked, looking around at the mess their backyard had become.
"Does nobody have vision?!" Alice asked in exasperation before storming down the stairs to direct them all.
Maya wished Rosalie had kept her mouth shut as what followed was four hours of hell where Alice ordered them back and forth and every other direction completing numerous tasks. Though she had to admit the end result was stunning.
The backyard looked nothing like it had before. There was now a stunning aisle with a beautiful arch at the end made of a plant with white flowers. Hanging from the trees overhead were dangling vines covered in more white flowers with small fairy lights woven into them. The reception area was similarly decorated. Though Maya and Rosalie laughed as their men practically whimpered at the sight of their wrestling area being turned into a dance floor. According to Alice it was the most packed down area and was absolutely perfect for the reception.
As Alice headed off to go check on the menu and wedding cake that Esme was making, the group took the chance to rest. Maya grabbed the meal that Esme had made for her earlier and dug in as everyone settled down around her.
"Hey Bree, come join us" Maya called out as the girl came out of the house.
Apparently being the wedding planner's mate had its perks as Bree had been given the job of organizing the "bridal suit". Which was just basically moving things around in the room she now shared with Alice and making sure all the dresses and needed accessories were set out and ready for tomorrow.
Bree sent them all a shy smile as she moved over to join them.
"So how are you settling in Number 2?" Emmet asked as she got settled.
"Number 2?" She asked confused.
"Yeah, Alice is shortie number 1, so that makes you shortie number 2" Emmet told her with a shrug.
Everyone groaned at Emmet's latest terrible nickname and Rosalie pushed her husband off the deck in a fit of exasperation as Bree laughed softly at his logic.
"Ignoring Emmet's questionable nickname, how are you doing?" Jasper asked her.
"I'm good. Its still hard with the craving but you all are being so helpful" she told them quietly as she looked down in embarrassment.
"You'll get there" Carlisle told her gently, "but you are doing an excellent job so far and we are all very proud of the progress you have made."
"Yeah" Emmet agreed, jumping back up to the deck and grabbing onto the rail so he could lean against it. "But are we sure that she's really a newborn? She's way too tame."
Jasper shook his head, "Emmet don't be reckless" he warned.
"What you think I can't take on one little newborn?" Emmet asked offended.
Bree looked at Emmet with worry, as if thinking he would attack her right that second.
Jasper just smiled at his brother, "Bree? Maybe. Alice though? Not a chance. Especially not if it means that you might not only hurt her newly found mate, but also damage her set up for this wedding or derail her schedule for set-up."
Emmet looked worried at the mere thought of Alice's retribution. He had been on and seen various members of his family on the receiving end of it enough to know just what kind of threat this was. He laughed nervously, "I wasn't gonna challenge her to a fight right now."
Everyone just looked at him with various looks of disbelief but let it go. They certainly weren't going to hold a rare showing of self-preservation against him.
"So how come Edward's not helping with set up? I get Bella, she can't exactly help with the heavy lifting, but Edward could?" Maya asked, voicing the question that had been bothering her for a while. She had noticed Edward watching them from the window as they set up and got ordered all over and couldn't figure out why he wouldn't come out a help set up for his own wedding.
"Who knows" Rosalie told her with a snort. At this point she wasn't surprised that Edward wasn't helping. She may not know his specific reasoning, but she was not surprised in the decision it led to. At this point it was routine for him that whenever something was going on in his relationship he left the family to do the heavy lifting for him.
Carlisle opened his mouth to say something in response but Alice beat him to it. "What are you all doing!?"
They all turned to find her standing in the doorway glaring at them as she held out her list of things that needed to get done. "We still have lots to do, you can't be wasting time like this!"
"Sorry boss" Emmet joked as Carlisle took the list from Alice and the others stood up and began to head back to work.
As Bree moved to join them though, Alice put her hand on her mate's shoulder. "I didn't mean you sweetheart. You did an amazing job on the bridal sweet so you can just rest a bit" she told her gently, leaning over to place a kiss on her cheek.
As the two girls shared their moment Maya turned to Jasper. "So how mad would you be if I left you for Alice?"
"You want to date that little tyrant?" Jasper asked unbelieving.
Maya gestured towards the pair behind them, still locked in their moment, "yeah, from what I've seen it's the only way to gain immunity. Self-preservation and all that, you know."
Jasper laughed and pulled her into his side so he could press a kiss to the top of her head. "Sorry Darlin' but you're stuck suffering with me."
"Mm and it's a burden I willingly suffer through" Maya teased before drawing him in for a kiss.
