A/N: SO this is super early from what I told ya'll to expect. But I had such a good amount of feedback from chapter in such a quick time period I got really inspired. All you readers out there can thank my faithful reviewers for getting this chapter getting written and uploaded 3 days early. See reviews really do make a difference! So again thank you to all my reviewers. Enjoy this chapter. A lot happens…
Disclaimer: I own nothing. Stephanie Meyer is the genius that created all of the Twilight world but most importantly created Embry.
"Bella. Bella, sweetheart. Can you hear me?" I felt like I should know this voice speaking to me. Then I felt a warm and rather large hand grab a hold of mine gently. Embry. That's who it is. My Embry. "Bella, please open your eyes for me." He sounded so sad and desperate. "The ambulance is on their way, Bella. Just hold on, baby." I wanted so badly to let him know I was there and could hear him, and let him know that I was okay. Well I hurt…a lot…but that I thought I would survive. "I'm so sorry, Bella. This is all my fault." His fault? This boy takes too much on his self. I had to reach him somehow. If I could just tell him…
"Embry." I quietly moaned. I am pretty sure only someone with super hearing would have heard it.
"Oh Bella, thank God. Can you open your eyes, Bella?" I tried to open them but the blinding light was too much. I quickly shut them tight.
"No. It hurts. My head hurts, Em."
"I know, sweetheart. That's my fault. I am so sorry. The paramedics are here. But I'll stay as close as I can, Bella. I won't leave you alone."
"Okay." I felt the darkness returning. I let myself drift into it; I didn't have the strength to fight it.
Beep…beep…beep…beep…
God that's annoying. At least most of the pain is gone. I groaned.
"Bella, baby. You awake?"
"Yeah." I croaked out. I felt like my mouth and throat had been left out in the desert for weeks.
"Here. Drink some water. It should help, sweetheart." I opened my mouth and Embry guided the straw into it. Boy does that feel good. So cool and smooth.
"Thanks."
"Not a problem." I finally felt able to open my eyes. And when I did the sight was as good as it could get. Two breathe taking, chocolate brown eyes were staring at me with such love and concern. I still sometimes couldn't get over that he was really mine. Mine, forever.
"Hey there, sweetheart." He said it with so much adoration.
"Hey."
"How you feeling?"
"Okay I guess. Feel like I was run over by a dump truck. But I'm alive, so I won't complain too badly." At that moment it really hit me how close I had really come to death this time. "Embry, what happened exactly? I thought I was dead. I had never been so sure in my life and well that saying something coming from me." He got a very sad look in his eyes.
"It was very close, Bella. Too close. And you weren't run over by a dump truck. You were run over by me. Well sort of. You want the whole story?"
"Yes. It would help if I am questioned by anyone. I am still a little fuzzy on the whole thing."
"Well, two guys were trying to rob the book store. You know that part. Me and Jake were-"
"Wait! Jacob was there, too?"
"Yeah. He was. He was the guy that tackled the man at the door. He was suppose to create a distraction so I could get you safety and get the man with the gun. The plan obviously had some errors or you wouldn't be here."
"I'd say the plan went well seeing as I am here alive."
"But you hurt your head because of me. I wasn't gentle enough. The gun was about to go off and I didn't think, I just acted. I threw myself at you so I could push you out of the bullets trajectory. I was so scared, Bella. I thought I was going to lose you. If I hadn't let Jake talk me into getting that stupid, freaking pretzel, you might have gotten away with no injuries. But he just had to have it right then. If we hadn't stopped, we would have been there sooner."
"And may I ask why you were even in Seattle getting a pretzel in the first place."
"Do you really have to ask? You. Are. A. Danger. Magnet. Seriously you are the only person I know that can find danger anywhere she goes. I bet you could get hurt a room full of pillows."
"A room full of pillows, really Embry? You are correct but still, very silly idea. Guess, I'm not leaving Forks or La Push for a while, huh?"
"You bet your bottom dollar you aren't going anywhere. At least not without a personal, werewolf body guard. I love you too much to lose you, Bella. I have to keep you safe. So, please don't be mad about us following you today or any day following this one."
"How could I be mad Embry, you saved my life, once again. Are you starting to feel as if you are fighting fate trying to keep me alive?"
"No. Fate is just reminding me of what I have and not to take you for granted. Plus, I know that I don't deserve you, so they are making me work for it. But I don't mind, because at the end of the day I still get you." He was completely wrong. I was the undeserving one. But I knew better than to argue with him on that point. It was a lost cause.
"I love you, Embry."
"I love you too, Bella."
"So, where exactly is my best friend. I have to say that I am a little hurt that he's not here."
"Oh…um…well you see…he's with Angela."
"Oh my gosh! I completely forgot about Angela! How is she? She wasn't there, so she's alright, right? How could I forget her?"
"Relax, Bella. We saw her as the paramedics were carrying you out. The police were keeping her behind the yellow tape. She drove Jake to the hospital and I rode with you. She's perfectly fine. More than fine. She's in very capable hands. Trust me." He was smirking. And I didn't think I like that.
"What does mean? 'She's in very capable hands'?"
"Um. Maybe Jake should be the one to tell you?" He was avoiding my stare.
"Embry Call, you tell me right now what happened."
"Jake, he-"
"Oh! I get it, he imprinted on Angela!"
"Yeah. You're okay with this right? I mean you wanted him to be happy. And now he can be."
"Of course! Oh this is exciting. Another wolf girl and one that I am already so close to. Why did I never see that coming? I mean they are kind of opposites, he's loud and outgoing, and she's quiet and shy, but that works. They complete what the other is missing. Oh and now she's single, since her boyfriend broke up with her. Did ya'll already tell her the secret?"
"No. Jake thinks it will be much better if you are there and conscious when we do. We'll have a bonfire and tell the stories. That's normal procedure, when there's an imprint. You, my Bella, just had to be special in your way of finding out. Always the one for dramatics."
"It's not like I asked for my best friend to morph in to a giant, angry wolf in front of me and attack the boy that I had developed recent and strong feelings for."
"I know it all goes back to that magnet of yours."
"So where is Charlie?" Embry's face dropped into a sad expression.
"What's wrong, did he get in an accident?"
"No. Harry Clearwater had a heart attack earlier today. So he's at the hospital in Forks. It looks pretty bad. After we found out you would be fine, just had to wake up from that bump on your head, I convinced him to stay there. I think Sue really needs the support. You're eighteen so you can check yourself out. Why don't I go get the nurse and see about getting you out of here?"
"Okay. Can you send in Jake for a second?" He nodded and kissed me on the check. Then he walked out. A few minutes later a wide smile Jacob walked in, like he was walking on clouds.
"It's so good to see you okay, Bella. You really put us all through a worry." He came over and gave me a hug.
"I hear congratulations are in order Jacob." His smile got even larger.
"Couldn't keep a secret could he? I wanted to tell you, I know she's your friend and all. But don't worry I'll take good care of her, Bella."
"I know, Jake. I am very happy for you. She's exactly the kind of girl you need. But I need to say this: You hurt her Jacob Ephraim Black and you are dead meat. I may not be able to do much myself, but I am sure I could recruit a few werewolves on my side."
"The only one you'd get to go against me would be Embry, because he's whipped."
"I think you're wrong. I am pretty sure I could bribe any one of them with promises of food, especially pies." He slightly scowled at me, knowing he was defeated.
"Fine. You win. I screw up, which I won't, and you get the guys to kick my ass. That's more than fair. But don't worry, if I screw up, I will probably be the first one in line to kick my own ass." We both had to laugh at this.
Sadly, Harry died later that day. Preparations were relatively quick. The funeral would be on Tuesday. Sunday and Monday, Charlie spent most of his time in La Push, helping Sue. Embry never left my side those days. At night he would leave through the front door, just to come back through my window. I think he was afraid to let me out of his sight.
Monday evening, I fixed dinner for just the two of us. I knew Charlie wouldn't be back until real late, finishing up the details for the funeral the next day. Dinner was pretty quiet. Both of us lost in our thoughts. I could feel his eyes on me as I was washing up our dishes. As I put up the last dish, I felt his warm arms wrap around me. Then I could feel his warm breathe on my neck.
"I love you so much, Isabella Marie Swan. I don't think I could survive losing you. I know I wouldn't. Please don't leave me." I turn around to face him.
"I'm not going anywhere, Embry. Not as long as I can help. I'll be more careful, I promise."
"I know. It's just that, I've almost lost you multiple times now, and with Harry gone. It just makes death more real, when its so close. You know?"
"Yes I know. Don't you think I worry every time you go patrol? Thinking that that might be the time you come across a leech that is too fast and too strong. Or that has some freaky power to use over you. You, Embry, are the air I breathe. I need you as much as you need me. You are my other half, what would I do without you? So you have to promise that you are always safe out there. No stupid mistakes or trying to show off or whatever."
"I promise." He leans down and kisses me gently. But soon it feels desperate, as if we are both trying to show the other all the love we feel as if this may be our last chance to do so. I reach my hands around his neck and intertwine them into his dark, silky hair. I feel one of his hands cupping my cheek while the other is roaming all around, grazing over my breast down to my stomach. Soon his kisses trail down to my collar bone.
"I want you so bad, Bella."
"I'm yours, Embry. Take me." He pulled away and looked me in the eyes.
"Are you sure, Bella?"
"Yes, Embry." He didn't need much more convincing than that. Faster than a normal human could move, he picked me up and headed for the stairs. He gently laid me down on the bed and resumed kissing me. My hands found their way to the hem of his shirt. He helped me pull it off in one fast motion. Then my shirt was off. I let my hands wander over his broad and muscular chest. I ached for him. I needed more. I want to feel him against me. Embry undid the clasp on my bra and pulled it off slowly, taking me all in. This was the first time he had seen me so exposed. Normally my bra stayed on. I thought I would have been more embarrassed, but I knew with the lust and desire was also love and admiration in his eyes.
"You are so beautiful, Isabella." He lowered his head and took one breast into his mouth while his hand played with the other. I couldn't help the moan that escaped. He then took the other breast, playing with my hard nipple, flicking his tongue over it.
"More, Embry. I need more."
"More what, baby?" He asked huskily.
"You, I want you." I panted.
"What do you want me to do, Isabella?"
"Touch me, Embry. Touch me everywhere."
He captured my mouth with his own, quickly taking the dominance. I could feel him unbuttoning the jeans, then him pulling the zipper down. I lift up to make it easier for him to pull them off. His hand went in under my panties. He grazed by my clit and went to my folds.
"You are already so wet, Bella." He pulled his hand out and licked my juices from his fingers. I watched stunned. "And you taste so good, so sweet." His hand found its way back to my lower lips. Slowly he entered one finger.
"Ahh."
"Feel good, my Bella?"
"So good, Embry. More please." I begged. I felt another finger slide in. He pumped them in and out while his thumb rubbed against my nub. "Oh that's so good, Em." He pumped faster and harder. He bent down and took my sex in his mouth. His tongue played with my nub. Flicking it hard and fast. All the while his fingers kept thrusting inside of me. I could feel the heat and pressure building in myself. I was getting close to release. "I'm so close, Em." I panted.
"Cum for me Bella. Cum for me, so I can taste you better." And I did. My body rocked with pleasure. Embry continued to lick up my juices as my body slowly stopped trembling. "You are so amazing, Isabella Swan."
"I want to taste you too, Embry. I want to know what you taste like in my mouth." I slowly got up and he laid back down after taking off his shorts. I had felt him before, but never had I fully taken in all that he was with my eyes. He was already hard and full for me. I laid between his legs, rubbing my hands across his abs, slowly making my way down the v of his torso, and down to his bulging member. I licked along its length while holding on to it with one hand. I felt him shiver, taking that as a very good sign, I continued on. I took as much of his length as I could in. I stated pumping him in and out of my mouth. I let my tongue dance around his tip and would take him back in. I moaned while he was impelled into my mouth. I felt his whole body shudder.
"God, Bella. That feels so good, baby." I use my other hand to massage his balls, not letting any part of him go wanting. I start to suck hard and faster, occasionally letting my teeth graze his sensitive skin. I continue to pump his cock with my hand as I took his balls one at a time in my mouth, gently sucking. I then lick the length of his cock again and start to take him back in my mouth when I feel him grab my hair. "Stop, Bella." He breathing was hard. "I am going to cum and I want to do that inside of you, baby." I got up and seized his mouth with mine. I felt him roll us other so that he was on top. He never stopped the kiss. I felt him pull off my panties. I laid waiting for the pressure at my opening, but I didn't feel it, instead I felt Embry freeze. "Shit."
"What Embry? What's wrong?" He looked at me with disappointment. That couldn't be good.
"I didn't know we were going to be doing this. I don't have…I didn't get protection."
"Oh. Well, we're okay. Rene put me on the pill before I moved here." His face filled up with relief and joy.
"Oh, thank God." He reached for another kiss. "It might hurt some, Bella."
"I know. I trust you." He nodded. Then I felt it. He slowly entered me; the pressure was almost too much. He was almost too much. He looked back up at me with questioning eyes. I nodded, not knowing what would come out if I opened my mouth. I felt a strong shot of pain. Praying that was the worst of it. I noticed he stopped again.
"I'm going to start going back out again. Okay?" Again I nodded.
I felt him slowly pull out then gradually fill me back up with his cock. Soon the pain numbed itself away and good sensations started to replace it. He continued to move slowly, waiting for me to let it go further.
"I'm okay, Embry." With that he started to thrust himself into me hard and faster. He built up speed. He leaned down to kiss me. His tongue finding every part of my mouth. I found myself meeting his thrust with my own. "Embry!" I moaned loudly.
"I love you, Bella." He murmured over and over almost like a prayer. I became aware that the fire was building once again in side myself.
"Harder, Embry." He pumped harder and faster, filling every inch of me. He reached between us and started to stroke my clit again. The fire was nearing explosion. "I going to cum, Embry."
"Let go, baby. I'm right behind you." And I did. My body once again shook with tremors. I knew he could feel my inner walls contracting. "Bella!" I felt Embry shudder both inside and outside of me. He continued pumping inside me, letting me soak up every ounce of him. As he finished his last thrust, he collapsed on top of me. Both of us still slightly quivering from our orgasms. I felt him pull out of me and I felt empty, like he just took part of me with him. He pulled the covers over us and pulled me to him. I rested my head on his glistening chest.
We laid there is silence. And I didn't think it could have been any better. I was truly happy that I had waited for Embry. It wouldn't have been right with anyone else. But still I couldn't believe we had finally done it. No interruptions, no phone calls, nobody walking in. Just us and our love for one another. Ding dong. I thought too soon though. I looked over at the clock. Eight o'clock in the evening. I didn't know who it could be. But it may have to do with the funeral tomorrow. I sighed loudly. I felt Embry kiss along my jaw line.
"You want me to deal with them?" He murmurs against my jaw.
"No. It's okay. I'll be right back." I kissed him on the lips. I went to put on some of my shorts and top. I was a little sore but nothing I couldn't manage. I headed for the hallway.
"I love you, Isabella." I turned back towards him.
"I love you, too." With that I headed down stairs.
I opened the door to come face to face with a person with a shocked look that matched my own. And then came the darkness…again. I was really getting tired of that.
A/N: Told you lots happened. Another cliff hanger. Sorry about that, they are just too much fun. Hope you all enjoyed Jake imprinting on Angela. She was the overwhelming winner of the poll. You didn't get to see them together, but I am sure you will some in the future. But not too much, seeing as this is an Embry and Bella fic. Remember to REVIEW.
