Hey Everyone! I'm sorry about the delay! I haven't realised how long it's been, honestly. I've been so busy. I hope I haven't lost any readers.
First my parents were off, as you well know so we did a lot of family events. Going shopping, leaving town to visit family, etc. The weekend after that I went to a heavy metal concert in a town nearby and I've been hanging out a lot with my boyfriend. Now some of my family is down and I had a bit of a writer's block that was just BLOWN right open! I'm so excited for this fanfic I finally know where it's heading.
Now enough of my explanations. I hope you enjoy!
**Little note** The time frame might be a little altered. I know that the end of Breaking Dawn didn't take place in 2011 but this is to fit better with my plot. The wedding will be a big part of this story. OOPS! Little spoiler ;)
Also, please review. It's hard to keep going when pretty much no one reviews. Goofy4Ever, thank you for the single review on most of my chapters. It means a lot.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of this except my OC and the branch off plot.
After the feast there was barely anything left. Jacob and Bella took most of the leftovers home to their fathers. The Clearwater's left as well, while the rest of us vampires and Embry sat in the living room ready to discuss our next move.
"Are there any suggestion to where we might live next," Carlisle asked.
Rosalie cleared her throat while Emmet was rubbing her back in a loving mater. They looked into each other's eyes with so much passion I felt my insides melt at how adorable they are together.
"Uh, Carlisle, Emmett and I have a tendency to leave on random honey moons to be alone for some time, right? We were thinking on visiting the amazons of Brazil. The way Zafrina showed us the Amazon through her eyes. It was a very beautiful site to see and it's somewhere we haven't been yet. We thought it to be our, I think 10th honey moon, or was it 13th?"
"13th Rosie," Emmett said while winking at her.
"Yes, well have fun you two. When do you think you'll be joining us again? When were you planning on leaving?" Esme said with worry leaking into her voice.
"In roughly a week, to put our affairs in order and to give Jenks enough time to give us new ID's. We were thinking on Emmett and Rosalie McCarty this time for a change. It's been a while we both took that name. Also, we don't know when we'll be back, but we'll call when we can to let you know how we're doing. "
We all turned to Alice, considering she was bouncing up and down in her seat, we could tell she was anxious for something that she saw in her visions.
Jasper looked concerned yet happy at his little bouncing wife. "What's going on Alice? What did you see?"
"We have to wait for Bella and Edward and Jacob to come back, which will be any second now."
As she finished her sentence the door opened with voices coming through saying, "we're back!"
They all came into the living room, Edward and Bella sat amongst us, Jacob stood to the side with a Renesmee in his arms.
"Can I tell them Carlisle or would you like to do the honours?" Alice said while giving him a knowing smirk.
Carlisle beamed and took his mates hands in his and looked down at her then down at a ring on her finger. Everyone gasped and Alice was bouncing I think a little faster than usual.
"Well, Esme joint Edward and I a long time ago. To be exact it was 90 years ago the day before the battle. We went on a lovely hunt together and spent an evening of enjoyable events. I re-proposed to her to renew our vows. I got this ring, specially made for her in memory of how she impacted my long life in just a few seconds. The simple diamond shows our one true love as mates and on the inside I had engraved 1921 which was the year she was brought to the hospital in Ashland, Wisconsin on a stretcher after the tragic incident. I fell for her the moment I saw her and felt compelled to turn her into one of us because I simply couldn't let her go."
"I said yes, of course, and before you ask, yes Alice you can plan our wedding. I suggested the church where my darling Carlisle ministered at to renew our vows and a little town a few hours away will be our next home. Kids we're going to be moving to Framlingham, Suffolk if that's okay with everyone," Esme said in a very polite tone.
I've never heard of Framlingham before, I hope it's not too close to Paris or known in the aria.
"It's beautiful there! You should see it! It's so old fashioned and they have a Castle for touring sometimes. The population is only 3000 people and the weather there is a little better then Forks but not so much. After this stop I already know where we're going so it's a very nice stop before leaving civilisation for a while," Alice said in a cheery voice, "oh and there's a College that offers English Literature Bella."
"Oh, that's perfect thank you," she smiled at her family then went back to rubbing her hands in Edwards hair.
"Uh, I know I'm a new addition to the family but I was wondering if the College had a -"
"Don't worry! I looked everything up and while I was looking at the different programs there's a Design and Technology course that will be perfect for you. There's a Science course for Embry and Edward too, he decided he wanted to help people like Carlisle does and ever since everything that happened with Bella his control has been incredibly high. "
Well that answered my questions and I turned to my mate, "you like science? What did you want to go into?"
He shrugged his shoulders, "you could use science for anything. If anything I'd like to become a fire fighter, or a police officer. So maybe instead of going there for College I could go to London since I don't have to hide and take Police foundations."
Alice squealed, "oh boy, Sky you better get used to girls ogling your man!"
"What did you see?"
"Well I couldn't see anything with him around, but I saw you confronting one of his female classmates to stay away from him. Embry you're too nice for your own good."
With that it earned Embry an unhappy glare from me, but then I cuddled up to him playing with his giant hand in mine. It's so weird, I love feeling small compared to my Embry, it makes me feel safe and protected. He's not huge, which I'm happy for, I never wanted someone very big but he's just the right size. When I have my hands in his it's as if the gods moulded us to one another. Perfect fit, I was terrified to have to lean on someone, to give them my all, but with Embry it's completely different. I know he loves me, I know he won't ever intentionally hurt me or leave me. So what if a few girls ogle him, or flirt a little. I know at the end of the day I'll be the one he'll be coming home to, I'll be the one he'll hold at night, I'll be the one on his mind from the moment he wakes up to the moment he closes his eyes. He's mine, just like I'm completely his. I know all of that, because I know it's how I feel and I can feel that he feels the same way for me.
I smiled up at him and simply said, "I love you, and I know that I might get jealous but I'll be okay. Want to know why? Because I know that you're completely mine, body and soul. I know this, because I'm yours, body and soul."
He just stared at me with pure adoration, pride and love then leaned his head down to capture my lips in a searing passionate kiss. I love this man with all my being and nothing will get in our way.
Rose and Emmett filled the rest of the gang that they were going to leave to go to Brazil the same day apparently that we'll be leaving for England.
Jacob left for patrol and to also fill the other two in how long they have before making their final choice if they want to join us or stay with their family and friends. The wolves and Bella will obviously keep in touch because of her family that she's leaving behind and everything.
I guided Embry to my room for a moment alone, I wanted to make sure that he really wanted to come with us. He'll be leaving a lot behind, all his friends and family. I didn't even know if he was leaving his parents or any siblings behind.
When we reached my room, I looked around once again hit by the unfamiliarity of it compared to my old room at the castle. In Voltura, my room was basic, no majorly big closet, just a small vanity, a chair in the corner, a simple bed to lay on and a joint washroom with a single shower, there were no mirrors or windows what so ever in my room. It was very old, all the bureaus were made of thick old oak wood. All dressed in a dark blood red and black. Very plain, very simple.
This room had a big four post bed, a dresser and mirror, male dresser, a rocking chair in the corner and a giant bookshelf filled with books of course. The main room was in white and gold colors. The joint washroom with the works, a big shower, jacuzzi tub, toilet and a giant mirror and a he/she sink was in black marble and white. Behind another door was a huge walk in closet filled with clothes. It was different, another thing that was different was the big window on the opposite wall of the door to walk in.
I sat on the bed, motioning Embry to join me. I took his hand in mine, I wasn't good with starting a conversation like this, so we'll see where it goes. It could go perfectly fine and he says he has no regrets or he'll doubt his choice, not considering the ones he'll leave behind.
"Embry, I barely know you, and I'd like to change that. Earlier today you asked me to simply go on a date with you and now you're ready to travel across the world for me. I know it's because of the imprint but it's a big step. I just don't want you to come with me and regret not being here for your brother or sisters birthdays, or your parents birthdays. I want you to consider what you're leaving behind to only be with me. I don't even know if I can give you children, I don't even know if this will work out."
I felt tears prick at the edge of my eyes, and a few slipping down my heated cheeks.
"Hey, none of that, I know perfectly well what I'm leaving behind. I have no siblings that I know of. The other alpha, Sam Uley, might be my half brother because his father was a manwhore, but other than that I'll be leaving my mother and Quil behind. Even though Quil's been my best friend since we were in diapers, Jakes been one of my best friends for a very long time and ever since I laid eyes on you I know that you're my forever, my family now. It's weird, because you're supposed to be my natural enemy but this is my family now. I'm not being left behind, I can't stay here, because you won't be here."
Tears were falling freely now. 'He really loves you, you idiot, now make him happy. You know you don't have to stay with the Cullens. You could go rogue and stay here so he doesn't have to give everything up for you. So stop feeling guilty and simply go to the College in Port Angels and stay," the voice in my head reminded me.
"Embry,-"
In that moment Alice came rushing through the door grabbing me by the throat. Embry growled and got in a defensive stance. "What did you do?!"
"I,-"
Everyone came rushing in to see what made Alice upset. "Everything was going perfect! Everything was planned! I was even going to ask you to help with the wedding but two seconds ago your whole future went fuzzy! What choice did you make?! What were you two discussing in here?!"
"I,-" "Now Alice let her explain herself, there has to be some reasoning behind the change of plans," Carlisle came to my help.
"I,-" "There better be a good reason! The wedding is still good, but it's all fuzzy too! I hate mutts!"
I pushed Alice through the wall in the hall way, past everyone and shouted,"DON'T YOU DARE CALL HIM THAT AND JUST LET ME FUCKING EXPLAIN!"
Everyone went quiet, Alice bounced back into the room with her arms crossed and I cleared my throat, "sorry about that, I just wanted everyone to stop freaking out. I wanted it to be a cute moment between Embry and I but since we were rudely interrupted," I gave a pointed look in Alice's general direction, "I was going to suggest that I stay here, go to College in Port Angels, I don't HAVE to follow you and make Embry leave his family and friends behind."
Embry turned to me with shock written all over his face, "you would do that? For me?"
"Well, yes actually, you were ready to leave everything behind to follow me half way across the globe. Also, Alice, I'll still be there for the wedding, that's probably why it gets fuzzy because I hope I'll still be a part of this family. Even though it will only be a week until you leave, a week that I would have known you all. I just can't do that to my mate, but I'll be there for a very unforgettable moment for my family."
Alice was quiet, then looked apologetically at me, "I'm sorry I rushed in like that, I'm just very protective of my family and it's hard to see around the wolves. Also, you better be there for the wedding! It's going to blow you away!"
Everyone laughed at Alice and simply walked back out the way they came in and you hear Esme, "Emmett you better fix that wall." His response was, "Awww do I have to?!" Alice came over to give me a hug before leaving, skipping on her way out.
"You're amazing you know that? I can't wait to introduce you to my mother. I'll admit even though I was going to leave everything behind to join you, it would of been very hard to leave my mother behind and everyone else. Jake is one friend out of the whole group of friends that are here and it's not like we'll never hear from them again. We could go visit them during Christmas, bring Charlie and Billy with us up there."
"That sounds perfect, and I don't have much tying me to the Cullens so it seems more reasonable to stay here."
"I better go though, my mother will probably be wondering where I am." He stood up in motion to leave the room, I quickly grabbed a hold of his wrist in reflex I suppose. I didn't want him to leave.
"Why? Doesn't she know about the big battle and everything about the wolves?" I simply asked, he looked down at his feet. By the simple look on his face I could tell he hasn't told her about anything.
"Really? Nothing? Not even the fact that you change into a giant wolf?" He shook his head.
"Well, can't you tell her you're staying at Jakes or something? I really don't want you to leave, if you don't remember the previous events of which you left, even for just a small period of time?"
"Uh, I guess I could, we don't want that happening again," he said with a laugh.
"Good," I got up and gave him a chassed kiss on the lips, "I'll get the phone so you could call.-"
Alice popped in the door frame once again with a smile on her face. "Don't worry, I already called his mother earlier because I knew she wouldn't be okay if he asked if you could stay and I also took into consideration that he couldn't leave because of what happened earlier."
I guess it was my turn to hug Alice, I ran up and gave her a giant hug, "thanks Alice. Are you sure you don't have the mind reading skills?"
She laughed as she pulled away, "yes I'm sure. Now go to bed love birds, Sky's about to yawn. Have a good night! See you in the morning bright and early for breakfast."
She skipped down the hall again, and I giggled at the realisation that I've never seen someone as optimistic as Alice. The only optimistic one at the castle was Jane and that's saying a lot. I turned towards the bed, with a yawn, to find my mates clothes already neatly folded on the rocking chair in the corner and his form already asleep under the covers.
'Well that didn't take long," I thought to myself. I closed the door, and the blinds. Searched in the walk in closet for pyjamas, the closest thing I found was a very skimpy nightgown. I quickly changed in the washroom and ran straight under the covers to hide myself. Embry was facing the wall with the window and I joined him by spooning him from behind.
This felt right, even though he was bulkier then me, it felt right to have my cheek pressed against his firm, warm back and his heat enveloping my front.
This felt like home.
I hope you liked! PLEASE REVIEW! PLEASE!
