Chapter 21: Sometimes it to Just Late!

(Ok so I am so sorry that its taken so long for updates but for the past month I have been in and out of the hospital with one person or another in my family! So here is the next chapter of the story and hopefully you like it and enjoy! Please review)

When I finally woke I felt like I was back to my normal body temp, which is a great thing! I reached out to feel for Chase but he wasn't there. I frowned and got out of bed. I have no clue what time it is but looking out the window it's already dark and the snow is still coming down. "Great" I say to myself, and then thought; 'Now we are all stuck here." I opened the door and headed down stairs.

The kitchen is empty which is a big shock. I headed towards the front room where I heard the TV on but just couldn't make out what was on.

When I entered the room I was shocked at what I saw, J, Tiffany, and Chase were all on the couch together, Sam and Emily on the recliner together, and Embry and Quil on the floor between Nat and Ann's legs. Wow when did Nat get here? I thought to myself.

Chase was the first to look up at me and smiled, "Well who decided to get up." I walked over to him and sat on his lap and snuggled to him.

"I missed you in bed." I whispered.

He wrapped his arms around me, "I'm sorry baby I couldn't sleep anymore. Are you feeling better?"

I nodded, I truly did feel better.

"Are you hungry Kimmy?" Emily asked me sounding really sad.

"Umm yeah a little but I can get something myself at home."

Jared fake coughed and laughed, "Kim your not going anywhere." He said sounding more demanding then his usual self.

"Excuse me?" I turned to face him.

He held his hands up trying to say 'hold on'. "Sorry that came out wrong. What I meant to say was the roads are all closed so we can't drive anywhere, so you can't go anywhere at least till tomorrow." He looked at me with wide eyes trying to say he was sorry for being so harsh at least I think that's what he was trying to say.

"Oh" was all I said and then sighed and thought, 'Great here I am stuck in a house with people well most of them that I really don't want to talk to. I laid my head on Chase's chest and sighed.

"You ok?" He asked me looking down at me with his gorges hazel eyes.

I shrugged and then just nodded but gave him a look that said 'well talk about it later.'

He nodded and just rubbed my back.

"Kim I made Lasagna for dinner, if you want I can warm you up some?" Emily said clearly she was upset with how things happened this morning.

"No I can get it myself, but thanks." I stood up and looked around. "Where's Seth and Tanner?"

"Oh he's in the nursery with her, he thought this movie was to scary for her." Jared said with a chuckle.

I shook my head and laughed, "That's to funny." I went into the kitchen to get me something to eat.

After I put everything on my plate and put it in the microwave I turned around and almost yelled, Nat and Ann were standing in the door way looking very sad.

"OMG you scared me." I said setting my fork down. "What's up?" I said still annoyed with them with good reason.

Nat started crying, "Kim I am so sorry you have to know that. I, I did try to tell you a bunch of times but Bry just said to stay out of it."

"And since when did what Bry say count more then me?" I said shocked that she even said that to me.

"He just thought that it was something you and J needed to talk about and for me not to get involved in epically considering that I didn't need the stress with the babies."

"Right but again you didn't care to tell me how much of a bitch I was being for not going back to him. You surly were fine with that stress. I just don't get it, we are supposed to be friends, and do you think for one second if I found out that either Bry or Quil were fucking around on either of you I wouldn't come to you running, no matter what J or Chase or hell even Sam said? No because I'm a real friend."

Both of their faces fell more then it already was. "Kim it wasn't like that." Ann said.

"Oh then what was it like, cause to me its like my two best friends in the whole world kept the biggest secret from me, something that's changed my entire life. So if that's not I was like then please tell me what it was like." I shook my head.

"Well saying it like that, yeah it was that way but we thought he was going to tell you." Nat said.

"It doesn't matter what you thought or didn't think, you should have told me!"

"Kim please we are sorry." Ann said.

"Yeah so am I, for thinking that I could trust anyone."

"Come on you can trust us." Nat said.

"Oh really? Where have you proven that in the last 5 months? Cause I see a pregnant Tiffany with Jared, my imprint, and my two so called best friends knew all about it and said nothing to me." I chewed on my lower lip.

"Why are you so mad at us but yet your not mad at him?" Ann said getting angry.

"Really? You think I'm not mad at him? Wow, have you not heard anything? I have yelled and screamed and everything I could show that I was mad at him and now I have to be an adult for my daughter and at least be decent with her father. And yet here I just find out today that you all knew all this time, and even after I knew you still didn't come to me and tell me you knew. I don't get it."

"You have had so much going on and I am on bed rest Kim it's not like I can get out and come over." Nat said.

"Umm have you ever heard of this invention from Thomas Edison? It's called a phone!"

"Really? You would call me and tell me all this?" Nat huffed.

"If I had no other way to tell you, yes, yes I would!"

"Look Kim what we did was wrong, please we have been friends for so long, I don't want to lose what we have." Ann said tearing up.

"I don't either, but you have to understand why I am so upset."

"I, I think we do." Nat said.

"Next time we know something that you need to know we will come and tell you as soon as we find out." Ann said.

I nodded, "Thanks."

They both came to me and hugged me, "Kimmy we really are sorry." I hugged them back, "I know, let's just not let this happen again."

"Never, ever, girls first!" Ann said and we all laughed.

"Kim are you really not going to take Jared back?" Nat asked as we pulled away from each other.

"I never said that but as of right now no I'm not, I'm with Chase and I'm happy. I love him."

Both girls were shocked, "But doesn't it hurt to be away from J."

"At first it did yes, it hurt like hell. And it took everything in me to not call him, even Leah would fight with me when I did try." I smiled. "But to more I had time to think about it and think about the pain he caused me I realized I would be ok, eventually it got easier and I still see him so that seems to be enough to keep the hurt away. But it's hard the more he is around the more it hurts when he isn't."

They both nodded as if they knew what I meant, and they prolly do. "But what the imprint it says that you guys are meant to be together? What happens when you can't fight it anymore?" Nat asked.

"Well Chase and I knew what we were getting into when we started going out, we have an agreement with each other. Whenever I feel the need to be with J again I just have to tell him just be honest with him."

"Oh but what about Tiffany and the baby?" Ann asked as I got my food out of the microwave.

"Well not to be a bitch or anything but what about her? She surly didn't think about me when she was sleeping with Jared. Yes lately I have been nice to her but that's just for the sake of keeping things between me and Jared easy for Tanner. And as far as the baby goes I will never keep Jared away from any of his kids. When and if we ever get back together he is more then welcome to see them."

They nodded, "That's really mature of you Kim." Nat said.

"Thanks, now enough with the heavy I'm starving." We all walked back into the front room and all eyes were on us. FUCK UGH DAMN WOLF HEARING! We all rolled our eyes and took our seats where we were sitting before we went into the kitchen.

Chase but his arms around me and whispered in my ear, "I love you too." I blushed and giggled like a school girl, and then took a bite of my food.

Jared rolled his eyes and turned his head towards the TV.

"What was that for?" Tiffany asked noticing Jared's actions.

"Nothing, just watch the movie, ok." He said to her not so nicely, wow if he ever talked to me like that I would slap him.

"Excuse me? Look I'm quit sick and tired of you always acting like a jealous ex boyfriend every time Kim is around. So cut it out!" Tiffany said loudly.

"Are you fucking nuts? I'm not acting like anything. God you're so fucking annoying." Jared got up and left the room. Tiffany started crying. The rest of us just watched the movie and I finished my food.

When the movie was finished Jared came in the room his hair wet clearly he was outside. "So how are we sleeping tonight Sam?"

"Umm I guess wherever you want to sleep." Sam said shocked, clearly he hadn't thought about where we were going to sleep.

"Well I'll take the nursery with Tanner." I said then looked up at Chase as if to say 'you gonna join me?' He just nodded and then all hell broke lose!

Apparently Jared saw our little private conversation and flipped out, "HELL NO! You are not having sex with him in the same room as my daughter."

"Hold on one fucking minuet. Jared when did you hear anything about me having sex tonight? And further more you do not get to dictate when I have sex. And if you are so fucking worried about it why don't you stay with Tanner tonight? Oh yeah that's right God forbid Jared loose one fucking wink of sleep to take care of his daughter!"

"Wait a damn minuet Kim I do take care of her. I watch her 4 days a week don't I?"

"OMG Damn let me give you a fucking medal. When was the last time you came over to see her just because not because you had to watch her? I have her 7 days a week and your bitching about taking care of her 8 hours a day for 4 days? Fuck off Jared Cameron I don't need you; I'll get someone else to watch my daughter. And further more don't fucking dictate my life because your girlfriend is being a bitch to you. That's not my fault. Next time you screw someone maybe you should make sure she isn't a bitch! I could see red now my whole body is shaking why, why does he have to do this all the damn time? I pushed past him and even shoved him slightly and went up stairs by Seth and Tanner.

Seth shhh'd me when I got in the room; I just nodded and slid down the door till I landed on the floor.

"Sup? You ok?" Seth said in a hushed voice.

I shook my head, "I'm so tired of always being told what to do and when not to do something by him. Yeah he does help me with Tanner by watching her while I'm at work, but I mean really? He has no clue what its like to work full time, come home take care of a baby, try to have a boyfriend, grade papers when I can, try to have a life, keep a house clean, do laundry and everything other thing that I have to do." I huffed "I'm freaking exhausted. Yes he has Tanner 4 days a week for like 8 hours and patrols but that's it. No other responsibilities well other then taking Tiffany to the dr once a week but he really doesn't get it. And yet he still tried to control my life." I leaned my head against the door and sighed.

"Well have you talked to him about any of this?" Seth asked.

I looked at him, "No, well other then about the not controlling me stuff, be he should know all this its not like Tanner sleeps the other 16 hours a day he's not with her. And I'm sure he knows how to run a washing machine. No, I don't want him to wash mine or Leah's clothes we are adults, but he could do a load of his daughters. I keep her clothes separate from ours anyways, but he doesn't. He doesn't even put his dishes in the dishwasher when he's finished with them. Some of this stuff is just common sense Seth. Well and I'm sure he knows now since he can hear me, but either way nothings going to change." Then like clock work there was a knock on the door. I slid over and opened the door. Jared was standing there looking upset.

"Umm Kim can we talk?" He asked quietly.

"Sure why not." I said full of sarcasm.

"Can we go outside please?" He said and I knew that it was cause didn't want the entire house to hear.

"Sure." I stood up and headed down the stairs grabbing my coat as I went. I walked into the front room where Chase was sitting and kissed him then whispered, "I'll be right back."

He smiled taking my hint that I wanted to go to bed after I got back.

Both J and I went out on the porch, "Ya know J they can still hear, don't you?" I said as I tightened my coat over my chest because the wind was whipping around us making it feel even colder.

"Yup, I do. Wait here k?" He said leaping off the porch into a tunnel that looked like the guys made so they can still patrol.

A few minuets later Jared's wolf appeared and motioned for me to get on his back. I was shocked. I also was excited about this. This is the first time I've ever gotten to ride him, well this way at least. I smiled wide and got on. I wrapped my arms around his huge neck and once he was sure that I was secured he took off running. I hid my face in his fur to protect it from the wind and the cold. I inhaled his scent and he smells like the same Jared, which is something that has always made me melt.

We ran for a little while and he decided that we were far enough away form the house he came to a stop. He lay down on the ground so I can climb off his back. He moved a little ways away from me and then his fur started to shake and then out of no where phased back to human Jared.

OMG what is this boy doing to me? He is giving me what I have ever wanted now, but why now? Then he stood up in all his glory and I have to admit it's hard not to look and my panties are not as dry as they were 10 minuets ago! I raised my brows as he started to walk closer to me still completely naked.

"Umm…" I motioned with my hand up and down his body.

"What? It's not like you ain't ever seen it before." He smirked at me.

I shook my head at him, "What's this all about J?" I asked trying to be strong but his body just does things to me and the damn imprint strings feel tighter.

"We needed to talk away from everyone." He said now just about 2 feet from me.

I swallowed hard trying to keep cool, "Ok so talk."

"What's the hurry?" He smirked.

"Um other then the fact that it's freezing, we have people waiting for us to come back."

"Oh well here let me keep you warm." He went over to a log that had fallen over and cleaned off the snow and sat down and patted the seat next to him.

I walked over and sat next to him.

"I did hear what you said to Seth while you were in the room with him. And I never realized everything that you have to do. I'm sorry; I'll help out more with Tanner."

I nodded and smiled, "Thank you J that means a lot." I said putting my hand on his leg.

"I'm still not fully ok with you being with Chase. I mean come one Kim we are supposed to be together, you're my imprint. None of the other imprints, other then Seth," he paused with a small growl," aren't together."

"Your right J but none of the other imprinters are expecting a baby from someone else; none of them have cheated on their imprints either." I sighed, "Jared if you truly wanted to be with me right now you wouldn't be with her."

His mouth dropped in shock.

"Seriously is there something other then her being pregnant with your baby that keeps you with her?"

"Hold on, so you are telling me that if I wasn't with her we would be together?"

"Well no, not right now at least. I… I'm with Chase and as much as you hate it I love him. I really do but if you wouldn't have went straight to her like I didn't matter, then yes we could possibly be together." I bit my lip.

He sighed, "Why? Why do you love him Kim?"

"I love him because he makes he fell safe, and most of all he loves me. Chase actually love me for who I am not because all this super natural bullshit. You love me because your wolf says you do. You didn't choose me and as much as I wish you would have, you just didn't. Your genes did, well I guess it was our genes did. The worst part of it though is that I did choose you." I looked down, "Then you imprinted on me and I was so excited about it, but then I realized you didn't actually choose me." I took a chance looking at him and it was a big mistake. His face was sad and he was hurting and with everything in me I wanted to not make him hurt.

"Kim I…I don't know what to say, other then I do want you. And even before the imprint I saw you and I did want you, I just thought you were too good for me."

"What? You're kidding me right?"

"No I'm not. Look at your house Kim and your parents, other then the fact that they are from the Rez they don't belong here. Your family has money, and yeah I don't."

"J you know you're crazy you know that right? My parents only have money cause they work off the Rez. But that doesn't mean that we couldn't have been together. Look at how my parents accepted you after the imprint."

"I know that now, but how can I change that?"

"I don't think it can be changed, we just have to move on. But the point of all this is that even though now I know that you would have wanted me with out the imprint, Chase chose me inspite of the imprint. His genes didn't tell him to notice me or to get with me. And well in also chose Tiffany." I sighed and tried not to cry.

Jared ran his hands threw his hair, "You know Kim I didn't choose Tiffany, she chose me." He let out a big breath, "That night at the party I got so trashed, worse then I ever have in my life, and she started to touch me and it sorta felt good. Before I knew what happened I was in a bed and she was on top of me. I know you don't want to hear that but that's the truth of what happened. Then you and me were fighting and you wouldn't let me stay with you and then one night I went over to Paul's to get him for patrol and she was there with Rachel crying. Then when she saw me, she was all freaked out and told me that she was pregnant."

"Hold on… you knew she was pregnant before you proposed to me?"

"Yeah but just cause she was pregnant didn't mean that I didn't want to marry you."

"So when were you planning on telling me?" I asked almost hurt that he knew for so long and never told me.

"I was going to tell you the day you went into labor with Tanner, but then all that happened and I just didn't want you to throw me out again and not let me see her. And then the night I did tell you, I was so stressed out. She kept calling me, even though I told her I didn't want to be with her, and you needed me so much and Tanner needed me and I kept having to do patrols and pack shit I just snapped when you kicked me out. I am so sorry, like sorrier then I have ever been in my whole life, that I did that. This isn't how I pictured our lives together." He turned and was looking into my eyes now and wiped a tear that I didn't know had fallen from my cheek and I leaned into his hand.

"Yeah me neither J." I whispered then bit my lip, wanting his touch more and more.

He leaned down and kissed my lips softly, not moving his hand from my face. I returned the kiss not knowing why, it just felt so good. He slipped his other hand around my waist and I wrapped my arms around his neck.

We kissed slowly and sweetly, then his tongue slide out of his mouth softly moving along my lower lip and I whimpered softly. I opened my mouth wanting his tongue on my own.

He started to slide his tongue into my mouth and then our tongues met and the kiss instantly deepened. I pulled tight on the hair that's on the back of his neck and he ran his other hand down my body and then around my waist to meet his other hand. He pulled me closer to him. Our breathing picked up pace and I slowly made my way to his lap.

He moaned when I was fully on his lap, "Hmmm, Kim"

I could feel how hard he was against my jogging pants and my hips started to rock over his cock. His hands stared to work their way up my back under my coat.

"Oh J." I bit on his lower lip, something he loves and drives him crazy.

He growled but not a scare the hell out of you kinda growl, more of a lustful growl. He started to bring his hands back down my back and over my ass. He jerked me closer to him and I moaned into his mouth. He started to pull my pants down and exposing my ass.

I started to kiss down his jaw bone and onto his neck and his hands massaged my ass tightly. I pushed away from him and stood up. For a second he looked rejected but I just pulled down my pants, smiling at him and then went back to his lap.

I felt him enter me and for the first time in what seemed life an eternity I felt right. I started rocking my hips on him and he held me close to his chest. I moaned and kissed his chest.

He started running his hands through my hair, "Oh God Kim you feel so good." He whispered in my ear.

"Oh yes J mmm so good. Yes." I started cumming on him while my muscles started to clamp on his shaft and then I started to feel him erupt in me. I laid my head on his chest and just closed my eyes for the first time in a long time I felt complete, and then I jumped up quickly getting off him. "OMG, OMG what did we just do?" I looked around and got my pants on.

"Kim, please don't freak out."

"Don't freak out? Don't freak out? Jared you have a girlfriend that's pregnant and I have a boyfriend that's waiting for me to get back."

"Kim we are supposed to be together."

"But don't you get it? Sleeping with you makes me just as bad as Tiffany. OMG I…I have to go."

"NO Kim wait… I I'm sorry please. I won't try anything again."

"Jared we shouldn't have done that. I can't hurt Chase." I started crying.

"Kim, shh." He said hugging me. "We won't tell anyone ever about this, I promise."

I looked up at him, "Really? You won't say anything to anyone about it? Even on patrol?" I sniffled.

"Kim I never want to hurt you and I can see that this has, I won't say anything to anyone for as long as you don't want me to." He ran his hand over the side of my face.

I leaned into it and closed my eyes, "Thank you J. That means a lot to me." I smiled at him and he kissed me sweetly, then sighed.

"Kim I still love you and I will always."

"J I love you too, but right now I really think we need to be friends, please."

He nodded but I could see defeat in his eyes.

"We need to get back J."

"You're right we do." He sighed and stood up. He took a few steps to get far enough away from me and I saw his whole body start to shake and then out of no where, his body went from tall dark and sexy to on all fours full of fur and scary!

He lay down on the ground and I climbed on his back and then he stood up and took off running. I held on to him tightly. Then what seemed like to soon we were back at the house. He lowered his body and I climbed off.

I rubbed his massive head and he smiled at me letting his tongue hand out. I laughed at him, "You're so crazy. Go back and change already." I walked up the steps and went into the house.

Again the house was quiet a little too quiet, I walked into the front room where saw Sam and Emily sitting on the couch with Chase who didn't look so happy and Tiffany sitting in the recliner looking plane out pissed.

Chase looked up at me and then Sam and Sam nodded. Chase got up and came over to me and engulfed me in a huge hug. I hugged him back.

"Babe, what's wrong?" I asked him softly, but before he could answer me Tiffany started yelling at me.

"You bitch, you couldn't just let us be happy, NOOO you always have to put your fucking two sense in."

I turned away from Chase and she was standing right behind him. "What the fuck are you talking about?" I asked her confused.

"You just can't get over him so you have to keep pulling him to you."

I looked around her to Sam and Em, "What is she talking about?"

Sam shrugged, and shook his head.

"I'm talking about you always needing Jared to talk to you." Tiffany said getting in my face.

"Ok first of all I didn't want to talk to him. HE ASKED ME to talk to him."

"Whatever, what are you fucking him again too?" She got a little closer to me.

I was shocked, "First of all if we were we would have been longer." I smirked, "And secondly I don't cheat, nor do I sleep with someone who has a girlfriend. I leave those kinda things for you." Before I could even think of anything else Tiffany slapped me across my face. I was in shock for about 2 seconds and when tried to lunge at her Chase wrapped his huge arms around me tightly.

Sam Jumped up and got in between us too.

"Let me go NOW!" I yelled at Chase trying to claw my way out of his hold.

Then Jared came in and ran over to me, "What's going on?" He asked grabbing my face so that I have to look at him.

"The bitch slapped me because she thinks I fucking want you still." I stopped fighting and calmed down some.

Jared growled loud enough for everyone to hear.

"J can you tell the bitch to just leave you alone already so we can be a family?" Tiffany said trying to sound cute.

"ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?" Don't you get it? If I didn't knock you up we wouldn't be together! If Kim would take me back I'd leave your ass in a heart beat. But she loves Chase because I fucked up and now I'm stuck with you. Don't get me wrong I will love our baby but I do not love you!" Jared finished and it was so quiet if a pin dropped it would sound like a truck hit a brick wall.

Jared walked out of the house and slammed the door. Tiffany started to cry and I rolled my eyes, and Sam sighed.

"Em lets get you to bed its late. Tiffany go a head and sleep on the couch or the recliner. Chase take Kim up stairs to the baby's room and send Seth down here."

Chase nodded and then carried me up the stairs.

"Chase you know that I can walk right?" I said looking around at him.

"Yup, but it's more fun to carry you, and your closer to me this way." He smiled and opened the door to the baby's room.

When we walked into the room I saw that cutest sight ever, Seth sound asleep in the recliner holding Tanner on his chest, both of them looking so peaceful. Except Tanner was starting to squirm around searching for food.

I laughed, "Let me feed her then we can go to bed."

Chase smiled and put me down. Seth woke up when he heard us, "Oh hey everything ok?"

"Yeah but soon Tanner is going to try to nurse on you and I don't think you'd like that." I smirked.

Seth stretched and yawned still managing to hold Tanner. Seth stood up and kissed Tanner on her head then handed her to me and left the room to go to bed somewhere.

I held her close to me, it feels like its been so long since I've actually held her she was moving her face around and opening and closing her mouth trying to latch on to anything she could. "I know baby, I know momma's gonna feed you right now." I kissed her head and sat down on the recliner and laid her on my lap. I got myself ready and she started to fuss, "Oh be patient my little one its coming." I picked her up and guided her to my breast and she latched on quickly. I smiled at her and just sat back closing my eyes.

It's been such a long, long day. Ugh what I did with Jared in the forest, and wow how am I going to tell Chase, or well maybe I won't even tell him. UGH I'm so confused… Having sex with Chase is very, very pleasurable, but on the other hand having sex with Jared just seems right, like it's what's supposed to happen. I kept my thoughts to myself but sighed loudly. I opened my eyes and saw Chase standing close to me, smiling.

"What?" I questioned him.

"Oh nothing, except that you have never looked more beautiful then you do right now."

I blushed, "Thank you." I smiled.

"You are very welcome. I know that we are just starting off but one day I can imagine you feeding our kids like that."

"Wow, I… I don't know what to say, that's very sweet and I'd be lying if I said that I haven't thought about us having kids together too." I smiled at him.

He bent down and kissed me sweetly.

When I was finished nursing the baby I changed her diaper and she went right back to sleep so I laid her down in the crib. I yawned and stretched.

"Tired baby?" Chase asked sitting on the recliner.

"Yeah it's been a long day." I half chuckled and came and sat on his lap. "So how are we gonna sleep?"

"Like this." He laid the chair back and pulled me on him.

I giggled, "Oh really now?"

"Yup." He kissed me sweetly and I returned the kiss.

"Thank you for being here for me."

"You're more then welcome. Thank you for letting me be with you." He kissed me again; I kissed him back of course and then smiled on his lips.

He looked at me sweetly with love in his eyes, "Kim I love you so much."

"I love you too Chase." I smiled at him, and then laid my head on his chest. He wrapped his arms around me and I fell asleep soon after.

(Ok so what did ya think? There are lots more around the corner for this group, just wait and see! Please review!)
