[Three days later]
The last few days are incredible. I'm not a sappy guy but damn being in love with my soul mates makes me so happy. I always knew Leah was beautiful but once I saw her nude I realized I knew nothing. I connect with Leah body, soul, and heart. She's my angel I feel like she was sent from heaven just for me. Okay so maybe I'm turning into a really sappy guy.
I hadn't spoken with my parents yet. They knew about what had happened with S and me. They also knew I had been spending a lot of time with Leah. But I hadn't told them that I knew about imprinting or that I had imprinted on Leah. Leah couldn't believe that I had been able to keep everything a secret from the pack. I had been avoiding my Mom and Dad. Mom had kept calling Leah but she dodged her calls.
Mom was sitting on the couch when I came in. She looked like she had been waiting. "Paul he's home get in here." Mom yelled. Dad ran into the Living Room and sat down next to Mom. "Sit down Adam we need to talk." Dad said motioning me to sit down. I sighed and said. "Fine let's talk." I dropped down into the chair. I waited but they were both quiet. "What's this all about?" I asked getting impatient.
"How old are you son?" My Dad questioned. "Um almost 21." I answered confused as to why he asked. "Do you consider yourself a man?" Dad questioned again. "Yes I do." I answered. "But you listened to a 15 year old girl." He yelled. "Uh yeah I did." I said quietly. "Why would you go alone with Shannon's crazy plan?" Mom asked looking disappointed.
I started to shake. I was angry, embarrassed, and nervous. Dad grabbed my shoulder and yelled. "Calm down Son." I chuckled. He was the one I got my temper from. "I wanted to help S out. Plus I had hoped it would make Leah notice me." I said embarrassed. "I'm sorry." I said softly. My parents both nodded.
"Why isn't Leah answering the phone when I call?" Mom asked. "She's been busy." I answered. "With you?" Dad questioned. "Yes with me. After all I am her imprint." I answered. Mom and Dad both gasped. "She finally told you." Mom said. "No S told me after my prom." I said. "How did she know?" Mom questioned. "She over heard a conversation between Quil and Claire. They were talking about Embry, her, then Leah and me." I answered Mom
"There's more though." I said. "What do you mean Adam?" Mom asked. "On my first date with S the night after I phased for the first time I imprinted on Leah." I said. "You did really?" Mom questioned shocked. "I told Leah the same night as the stuff with S and Embry. She and I talked and we're ready to be together now as a real couple." I said.
"We're you safe?" Mom asked guessing we had sex. I blushed. I wasn't sure what to say. If I said yes I would be lying, if I said no Mom and Dad both might have a heart attack. So I just stayed silent. "He's not that stupid Rach." Dad said making me feel worse. Luckily my phone rang. "Is that Leah?" Mom asked pointing to my phone. "Uh yeah." I answered as I answered my phone.
"Hi Sweetheart." I said. "Ask her to come over." Mom said. "Mom wants you to come over." I said. Mom smiled. "Yes they do so please hurry." I said back into the phone. I heard Dad chuckle. "I love you too see you soon." I said hanging up the phone. "Wow son you sound really sappy." Dad said. Mom hit him and said. "I think it's sweet."
Less than 30 minutes later Leah arrived. I greeted her at the door. I gave her a quick kiss and then led her over to the chair. I sat down and pulled her onto my lap. "I hope we don't break this chair." Leah said as we all laughed. "Nice to finally see you Leah." Mom said. Leah looked uncomfortable. "So Adam has told us about Shannon and imprinting, do you have anything to add?" Mom asked. Leah shifted on my lap again. She took my hand in hers and said. "Yeah actually I do." I felt so nervous I was unsure what Leah was going to say. I hoped they wouldn't get upset.
"Adam and I are planning our future together. I love him very much as you both know." Leah said. Dad nodded not surprised by what he heard. Mom was tearing up. "Actually Adam there's something I've wanted to ask you the last few days." Leah said nervously. "What is Le?" I questioned. "Will you move in with you?" She asked softly. I felt in shock.
"I love you Adam. I don't want to spend one more night without you." Leah said she looked like she might cry. "I love you too Leah and I would love to move in with you." I said smiling. She turned around on my lap a little and kissed me. Dad smiled and rolled his eyes. Mom had put her face in Dad's shoulder. I could hear her crying. "I'll miss you Mom but I'm grown. I'm in love and I don't want Leah and I to spend anymore nights a part." I said hoping she would understand. Mom stopped crying and starred at Leah.

I was so happy that Adam agreed to move in with me. But then I saw Rachel's face before she turned to cry into Paul's shoulder. She started to stare at me. I had only seen that look for her once before. It was the same look she had the night Adam was born right after I imprinted on him. I felt really terrible. "Rach you've been such a good friend to me. And you know better than anyone that I will do everything in my power to make your son happy. I really do love him with all my heart." I said. "I know." She whispered.
"Can we talk alone?" Rachel asked me. I nodded kissed Adam and said. "Sure we can." We headed outside. "Let's go for a walk." I suggested. I knew she and I needed to talk alone just the two of us where Adam couldn't hear us. We talked towards the forest.
"He can't hear us anymore." I said. Rachel nodded and said. "Leah you know I love you like a sister and I'm just not sure how I feel about you and Adam moving so fast." "I know Rach one day he was a little kid with a soccer ball now he's moving in with me." I said. "I just didn't think about him moving out anytime soon." She said sadly. "I know but I meant what I said I will love him with every ounce for my being." I said. "I know it's just he's my first born." She said starting to cry again. We hugged.
"Come on we better get back Paul's probably freaking out and if he phases cause of me and I ruin his retirement you'll never forgive me." I said. She laughed and said. "Yeah we better because if my son phases in the house you're paying for the damages." I laughed said yeah.
[A few weeks later]
(Leah's point of view (still))
I was so excited and scared. I had missed my period. Adam and I had never used protection though I knew he had bought some. He asked the first few times after the first time and then didn't asking anymore after I said we didn't need it. I had wanted a baby for such a long time. And I had thought more than once I had lost my chance to have a baby. Now in nine months I could be a Mommy.
I went to Fork to buy a pregnancy test. I decided to buy three just to make sure. On my way back from Fork's I stopped at the Cullen's place. I was glad Carlisle was there. It was just him and Esme home and I knew she could keep a secret. Over the years I had gotten use to the Cullen's. They still freaked me out but I liked them and they treated me like family. I told Carlisle I might be pregnant. He suggested I stop phasing. I told him I already had. I had told Jake that I would be retiring soon and I wanted to start practicing. He understood. Carlisle told me if the test was positive he would run a blood test to confirm it.
Adam had already officially moved in with me. It was so nice to have him with me. We spent all our time together. We made love every night and most mornings. He seems so mature so quickly. I knew no matter what the results were Adam would be standing beside me. I paced the floor trying to decide just how to tell Adam we night be pregnant. I mean he knew this could happen. But knowing it could and having it actually happen were two different things.
"Leah, Le Baby where are you?" I heard Adam call out. I kept pacing the bedroom floor. I heard Adam come into the bedroom. He came right over and asked. "Are you okay?" He was very concerned. "Yeah." I whispered trying to play it cool. "No you're not what's wrong?" He asked. "Um, uh I think we might be having a baby." I answered still talking in a whisper.
Adam's face lit up and he asked. "Are you serious?" "Yeah, I'm late I bought tests to check. If they're positive Carlisle said he would do a blood test to confirm it for us." I answered. He nodded. We stood there silent for a few moments. "Where's the test at?" Adam asked. "In the Bathroom." I said. "Come on go take it now." He begged excited. I laughed and we both went into the bathroom hand in hand.
It took me forever to pee. I finally did though. Three minutes and out lives might be changed forever. Adam set the timer on his phone. Neither of us spoke a word. He just held me as we waited. When the timer went off we both jumped. "Let's go look." Adam said pulling away from me. "No I can't." I said.
I couldn't help it I started to cry. Adam pulled me back into his arms. "What's wrong Sweetheart?" He asked. "I just want this so badly." I said. He wiped my tears away. "If we weren't pregnant we'll keep trying okay Le." Adam said. I nodded. "Will you look?" I asked him.
"Yes Sweetheart whatever you want." He said. He went back over to the sink. He looked at all three. He ran over to me. His expression was so hard to read. I started crying again. Adam picked me up and twirled me around. "We're pregnant, we're having a baby." He yelled and kissed me.
