One-shot for Embry.
I faced facts a long time ago, my imprint was not in the Washington area. She was somewhere else, and me, not being able to go way from La Push was never going to find her. So I married an old flame of mine from high school and settled down. I had a beautiful baby boy, Bailey and a sweet girl, Rebecca. I was truly happy. But when a new family moved in down the road from us and there eldest daughter moved in with them, being a friendly neighbour I went to welcome them.
The daughter answered the door. She was roughly my age, had long brown hair and piecing blue eyes. She was very beautiful and all I new was that I was falling. Falling hard, falling fast. At last I had found my imprint, my angel. Her name was Star, she had moved with her mother and father who were waiting for the arrival of their grandchild.
It wasn't Star's child, it was her nephew, his mother and father – Star's brother - were killed in a car crash, and the boy was in the car. He needed constant care, due to some injuries he acquired due to the crash and the grandparents were too old so Star helped them.
During the following months I got to learn more about Star. Bailey was the same age as her nephew, Lewis, so she regularly came over with him. Of course my wife knew what was going on. Before I married her I told her that I was a werewolf and she knew about imprinting and she also knew that I hadn't imprinted on her. To my surprise my wife told me that she knew I had imprinted on Star. She though that Star and I were well suited, but she worried about our children. I couldn't leave them, I was the only source of income. I was stuck.
I needed to tell Star, I needed to let her now everything. So I plucked up the courage and asked her out for a drink, she agreed. When we got talking I found out we had a lot in common, it made me hope. So I plucked up my courage and told her my secret.
She took the news very well, never raising her voice, never once screaming. She asked me questions and I answered them truthfully. I also told her about imprinting and what it meant. She asked if I had imprinted on her, again I answered truthfully. She was quiet after that. When I dropped her off home, she didn't say goodbye. I didn't know what to do.
When I got home, I was a total mess, the children were in bed so I poured my heart out to my wife. She understood, she wanted to see me happy. So she told me about an old school friend who ad just moved back and was showing interest in her. She said that she would leave me and move back home so that we could all be happy and that if I ever wanted to see the kids then all I had to do was turn up on the doorstep. She didn't want the kids to be punished because of what I was and what was happening. She wished me luck before she went to bed, she would leave in the morning.
But things didn't turn out how I expected. I went over to Star's house. Star wasn't there, she went out after she got home form the pub. She said she wasn't going to go far.
I didn't think anything of it at first, but when I got to Emily's, Jake was talking to Sam. He caught Star's scent in the forest. But it lead to a dead end.
After the second day that she was missing, her parents called the police. They had sniffer dogs, they followed her scent but it lead them to a big open meadow.
I went over to her house and helped out with Lewis, since Star wasn't here, they needed all the help they needed. Her parents said she left two notes, a note to me and a note to them. The note to them said she was going out. The note to me said something else, something private.
Embry,
I love you with all my heart, and I'm sorry about what I have done. A friend of mine has asked me to go stay with her for a while. I am going, I don't want to come between you and your family. You have two beautiful children and you should be there for them. I don't want to see them suffer because of me. I will come back, I don't know when thought. I just need to clear my head. I don't mind that you are a werewolf. I don't care, I love you, that's all I know. I say goodbye before I leave, don't ruin things with your family over me, I'm not worth it
Please don't do anything stupid.
Star

She didn't get it, she was worth it to me. And now she will never know because no one can find her.
So this is my first fan-fiction. I put this up on Quizilla a few months ago. Please read and review!
