This chapter is mainly from Embry's POV.
And to wolfgurl23 sorry the first chapter wasn't too long, but this one is a longer so enjoy.
Bella's POV (From before Jacob phased)
I was sitting in Jake's lap crying my eyes out when I become conscious of how warm Jake was. I guess I noticed it because Edward was awfully cold. Saying his name in my thoughts brought on another wave of sobs.
When I felt like I could cry no more I realized I owed Jake an explanation as to why I was crying in the first place. I looked up at him and simply muttered, "He left me."
Jake started quaking with anger. "Jake…are you ok?" I asked getting kinda worried.
That's when the most beautiful voice ever screamed, "Bella! Move now!"
I jumped up immediately and ran towards the voice. It wasn't very far off, only a little distance. I ran into the embracing arms turning around just in time to see a huge russet colored wolf run into the woods. I looked for Jake but all I could see was little bits of shredded cloth everywhere. That was the last thing I saw before everything went black.
I awoke feeling kinda groggy. I opened my eyes and gasped. Staring back at me were the most beautiful chocolate brown eyes I had ever seen. I blinked. Those eyes, I've seen them before….but where?
*Flashback*
It was my second week in Forks and Billy and Jacob had come over to watch the game with Charlie.
Charlie suggested that instead of staying there that Jacob take me to the rez to meet a couple of his buddies.
I of course agreed not wanting to spend a boring evening pretending to watch TV with them.
When we got to the beach Jake introduced me to Quil and Embry his best friends.
I shook hands with Quil and blushed lightly when he winked at me then shook hands with Embry who had the prettiest brown eyes I had ever seen.
*End Flashback*
"Embry?" I said hesitantly.
"Bella" he breathed my name out in a sigh of relief.
I sat up and realized I was on the Black's couch. "Embry, what the hell happened?"
Embry's POV (from before Jake phased)
I was heading to Jakes house to tell him the news. Harry Clearwater had just had a heart attack. He was in critical condition at the hospital, and his odds weren't looking too good. Billy, Charlie, Sue, and most of the pack were already there. Sam sent me to tell Jake as he finished up checking the boundary lines.
When I walked up to the familiar house I saw Bella's truck there. I remember when I first met her. That was the last night I had as a human before I phased for the first time. I will admit I had developed a small crush on her, but it was obvious from the get go Jake liked her a lot. I thought they had a chance together until she started Forks High School and got involved with the leeches.
That's when my opinion of her went downhill. She was a leech lover. She was dating my sworn enemy. As soon as Jake phases he's gonna have to live with the fact that the girl he loves chose a dead parasite over him.
I was still thinking that over when I saw them. They were sitting in the garage and she was curled up in his lap. I could see from here the sobs that shook her body. I felt a strong pull to be closer to her. So I moved toward them. When she looked up I caught sight of her face.
Everything inside me came undone as I stared at her angelic face. Even though I knew the impact of an imprint from Sam's point of view in his mind, nothing prepared me for this. I was willing to do anything for her. I would give up my life for her with out a second thought. I wanted to be her everything and her be mine. Wow…I just imprinted. Jake is so going to hate me.
That's when I noticed Jake shaking. Oh fuck he was gonna phase and hurt her.
"Shit!" I cursed under my breath.
I had to get her away from him before he hurt her. I could never forgive myself or him if I let him do that.
"Bella! Move now!" I yelled.
She surprisingly jumped up very fast and ran towards me. I wrapped my arms around her glad she was safe. She turned around and saw the Jacob wolf run into the woods. Then she feinted.
I was frantic. I picked her up in my arms and couldn't help but notice how well she fit there. I carried her into Jakes house and lay her on there couch sitting on the floor beside her. I looked at her with pleading eyes, willing her to wake up so I would know she was ok.
I sat there for an eternity (which really was only five minutes but it felt much longer!) waiting for her to open her eyes. When she did she gasped and her big brown doe eyes widened. She stared at me for a moment before blinking slowly.
"Embry?" she asked hesitantly.
"Bella" I sighed. She remembered me. I was so happy.
"Embry, what the hell happened?"
I was worried. Since she was my imprint I knew I could tell her about the pack but I was scared shitless she would reject me.
"How about I tell you on the ride to the hospital?"
Her eyes widened, "Is Jake okay did the w-…"
I felt a pang of jealousy over how worried she was about him but quickly dismissed it.
"Jake is fine. He just phased for the first time" I said.
I helped her up, and led her to her truck. I took her keys and drove to the hospital. I explained the whole situation; starting with Harry having a heart attack, moving on to the wolf's, and finishing up about imprinting. Though I actually never said she was my imprint I just explained it to her. I'm such a wimp I though to myself. I can't even tell her. I'll just have to tell her later I guess.
Through the whole thing she was silent. We were at the hospital by then, parked outside. I was waiting on her to say something.
"Why can't I have a normal life?" she seemed to be talking to herself.
Now she was muttering, "An ex-boyfriend who's a vampire, a best friend that's a werewolf, and a crush on another werewolf."
She blushed and I couldn't help but notice how cute it was. Wait, did she just say she had a crush on a werewolf…that would mean me wouldn't it?
My heart somersaulted with joy and I smiled at her cheekily.
"We should probably go inside now" she said timidly.
Great she probably thinks I'm a psycho who stares at her.
"Yea, probably."
We walked inside and sat in the waiting room with the pack, hoping for good news concerning Harry. After 5 minutes of sorrowful silence, Sam came in with Jake trailing behind him. When he saw Bella sitting beside me he ran up with his mouth open.
He stuttered something about he thought he hurt her. They hugged and were whispering to each other. I yet again was jealous of how close they were. I wonder if she will ever feel that way with me.
I sighed loudly causing Sam to look at me. When he did, he somehow just knew. He gave me a knowing look with a small smile. We told Jake who was actually in the hospital since apparently he thought he had hurt Bella.
Psssshhh as if I would have let him.
Charlie showed up next, (we had called him earlier) and we all sat down again, and waited for what was going to happen next.
Did you really think I would have let Jake hurt Bella? AS IF! As I said earlier it doesn't go along with the books so if there is any confusion feel free to ask. XD Also this chapter was a lot longer than the first so I'm proud of myself. Please review and I might get the next chapter posted faster.
