Author's Note: Hey everybody, long time no see! I'd like to thank everyone who reviewed and read The Nurse's Wolf. I'd also like to thank Melanie because……she talks to me about my stories. Check out my profile because she wrote something on there.

I think that the beginning of this story starts out really slow, but lets see what you guys say about the beginning. The more mature parts come later in the story so just wait for it!

The Unknown Secret

It was Christmas time already and work at the hospital couldn't be more crazy. Sprained ankles and busted noses came in and out all day because of the ice that was everywhere.

has started to give me a little leash and has let me see the minor patients. I am completely thrilled to be trusted this quickly.

Sadly, my little brother, Lucas, had to go back to Seattle after his summer break was over. At first I got lonely without him chatting away to me, but I'm okay now.

Embry and I were still going strong after all these months. It was like when we were together, I felt complete and whole. How odd that one person can change your life.

Alice apparently believed that every holiday you needed a completely new wardrobe. Which is what we are doing now.

"Lila, come on. You have to buy something," Alice wined, running past me with an armful of clothes.

I sighed and sat on a stool in the dressing room. "I told you, I haven't got paid for this week yet," I stated.

Alice gave me a blank stare. "That's why I'm here. I'm your new bank. Now lets get you fitted for your Christmas outfits," and she dragged me off of the stool.

I didn't even get a chance to complain before she handed me over to the workers. They pulled my clothes off and started to measure, calling out numbers.

I stumbled out of the back room ten minutes later with a blush on my face. Alice was waiting for me.

"Ms. Cullen, your order will be ready in two days," a clean cut worker said, walking over to us.

Alice frowned and muttered something to the worker, slipping something into her hand. The worker walked away with a dazed look on her face.

"Your outfits will be ready in two hours," Alice stated and dragged me out of the store by my wrist. She had a very firm grip for such a little person.

We went to the food court and two more stores before we went back for my outfits.

"What did you actually order me?" I asked, pushing my long hair out of my face.

"One is for the Christmas party and the other is for when you're alone with Embry," she said eyeing something on a rack.

I blushed. "What do you mean 'alone'?" I squeaked. Alice just shrugged and headed for the worker heading towards us before I could tackle her to the ground.

Alice was back over to me with two more bags to add to our pile.

It was a two hour drive back home while I dozed in the front seat. Alice kept chatting on and on about how she was going to decorate the house. It wasn't long before I had fell asleep in her car.

*Three hours later*

It was too warm. Heat had encircled me and that meant only one thing. I was with Embry.

My eyes fluttered open and quickly found Embry's face. He grinned at me and lifted me up into a sitting position.

"Alice already gone?" I mumbled, rubbing my face. He nodded. "Good".

I reached up and pecked his lips again and again until Embry was begging to breath.

"I missed you," I cooed, running my finger tips up and down his nose. He chuckled and kissed the palm of my hand.

I looked around my living room. Blankets, dirty dishes, and candy wrappers laid everywhere.

I giggled. "I see you made yourself at home. Maybe I shouldn't have had that key made for you" I teased, crawling out of his lap.

I stretched and grabbed Embry's hand so he would follow me into the kitchen. He barely made a sound as I floated around the kitchen.

"Do you want anything?" I asked, putting my sandwich on a plate. He shook his head no. While I ate I noticed how quiet he was being.

"Is something wrong, sweetheart?" I asked, rubbing his shoulder. Embry started and looked down at me.

He gave me a nervous smile. "No, I'm fine. Just was thinking about Christmas. You're still coming over to my house on Christmas, right?" Embry exclaimed.

"Still coming of course," I mumbled. My mind had went to what Alice had said about the outfit for Embry. I'd make sure he'd never see it.

We sat in silence for a few minutes. I looked over at Embry a lot. He still had his intense eyes and cute grin. Embry was still a giant, but that worked for me since I was a giantess.

I frowned. His hair was getting long again. I couldn't stand it like that, it just got in the way. We couldn't have that now could we?

"Guess what? You're getting a hair cut again," I sang, already going for the scissors.

It wasn't just a couple minutes later that Embry was waling around with less hair.

I sighed happily and fingered a piece of his hair. "I should be a hair stylist instead," I giggled.

"Mhm," Embry grunted. I frowned and gave his hair a little tug.

"What's wrong Embry? You seem really zoned out," I exclaimed. He didn't reply.

"Embry?!" my voice had gone up little in worry. He just gave me a lazy grin and leaned back in his chair.

"You'll find out at Christmas. Will you show me what Alice and you bought?" Embry said, changing the subject from himself.

I frowned, but lead him into the living room to see my clothes. I made sure that I had hid my Christmas clothes already.

We went through ever bag while watching the Food Network.

*Embry's Pov*

I couldn't help, but be nervous the whole time I was with Lila. My mind kept going to Christmas night. That would be the night.

We were snuggled up on the couch, watching some cheesy movie. My eyes kept traveling to her left hand. Just a few more days.

"What do you think Alice has planned for the party?" Lila asked, looking up at me with her big, blue eyes.

It took me a minute to get my thoughts together. Darn her and her beautiful eyes….I didn't mean that.

"Music, food, TV, and maybe some dancing. Typical party," I answered, putting my arm around he shoulders.

She chewed her bottom lip. "I'm a little nervous to be honest," Lila exclaimed, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear.

"Nothing to worry about, I'll protect you from the big, bad Cullens," I teased, squeezing her into my side.

She sighed and laid her head on my chest for a few minutes before I felt her lips on my chest through my t-shirt.

Tingles went up my spine when Lila placed her hands on my flat stomach.

I laid my head back on the couch and enjoyed the feel of her touching me.

"I love you," I heard her mumble into my shirt. A grin flashed across my face.

"I love you more," I countered back happily. We battled like this until we were kissing. Beats me how that happened.

A/N: Right there was the first chapter for you. I know it wasn't very long but that's just how it goes I guess.

I'd like to point out that Lila and Embry have not had sex. They will do that when they get married! Review please if you'd like to comment or have questions!
