Chapter 224: The Aftermaths of the Plan Part 2

I walked into the guest room, and Kim was rocking the baby. Her expression lit up when she saw me. She said, "thank you for the food! it was delicious. Do you want to hold Amelia?"

I said awkwardly, "n-no..it's fine."

She tsked, so she said, "come on, now its fine. I trust you with my baby."

Its not that I don't like babies, but I just didn't feel like holding a newborn. However, knowing Kim she is going to keep nagging me, so I complied. I sat down in the bed next to her as she hand me over Amelia. She was gurgling, and my expression softened slightly when I saw her. She had the same russet-skin like both of her parents, and she had the same black hair as them too. I cuddled her closely to my chest, and I pondered to myself.

Is this what it would be like I have a…child with Sam? Would..the child look similar like this? She or he would. Would the child have my features? I don't know, but I also got sad. I wanted to raise my kids together with my friends in my reality, but now..I can't.

I swallowed thickly, and with a forced smile, I gave back Amelia to Kim. She looked at me confusingly, and I said, "..I hope you rest well. I can ask Sam to let you stay with us for awhile until Jared's ready to leave."

I heard a slight knock, and I turned my head over. Sam was by the door, and he had a soft expression on his face. He said softly, "no need to ask. Kim, you can stay here s along as you want. You're pack. We'll take care of you, and Jared would want that."

Kim said tearfully, "thank you, Sam."

He nodded. I avoided looking at him in the eyes because he knows that I am upset, and I don't want to talk about it with him just yet. I left the room, passing Sam, and I could hear Sam sighing slightly behind me.

I felt Sam grabbing my hand from the behind, and he said, "what's wrong?"

I bit my lip in anxiousness and I still wasn't looking at him. I said, "it's.."

I sighed in frustration. I don't want to be hot and cold with Sam like this.I..need to lower my guard around him to let him get closer to me like we talked about.

I said, "..holding Kim's baby.."

He added to encourage me to keep talking, "..yeah?"

I continued, "..I was just imagining if..she is what it would like if me and you have a child together."

He said incredibly, "you..wanted to have my child?"

My face was blushing from that statement, but I stated sadly, "but…I always wanted my children to be surrounded..by my family."

Well, it wasn't a lie. My friends, they were the closest thing to family that I wished that I had. I finally looked up to see Sam, and I was shocked from what I saw. He had tears down on my face. His thick eyebrows were furrowed together, and his eyes were red. I know that he was feeling my despair, sorrow, and depression. He was mirroring my emotions. I wasn't crying, but he was crying..for me.

I swallowed thickly, and he said, "I wish..I can just take this deep..agony from you, but I don't know how to help you. It hurts so much to see you in so much pain I.."

He squeezed his eyes tightly, and I reached out to caress his face. He leaned forward to my hand and rub his cheek on my cupped hand.

I said thickly, " I know..it's hard to feel my emotions, and I'm so sorry Sam. I..don't want anyone to feel what I feel, but since of the imprinting, you..have to."

He said with eyes opened. They were shining brightly gold. He said, "I don't regret feeling your emotions through the bond. I can better help you."

He sighed, " we talk more later. I..got to go report to the council about everything that happened…and to discuss about what we are going to do with Bella Swan from the stunt that she pulled."

Yikes. She did put herself in danger and fled the scene when we all needed her. Since she is an outside and she has been with Edward in the past, the council won't be so kind to her despite of the fact that she is Charlie's daughter.

I nodded. He leaned forward to give me peck on the lips, and he said tenderly, "thank you..for opening up to me even though you didn't want to. I appreciate that you are trying."

I nodded mutely, and he walked out the door. I turned around and Seth had his head poking out of the kitchen. He said sheepishly, "ha..ha..Hi?"

Lol. He looks like he was caught snooping on his parent's conversation or something. Now, I see why Sam left. He didn't want to talk openly about us in front of young Seth. I said, "do you need anything?"

He shuffled his feet shyly, and he said, "y-yeah..I was going to ask if I can shower here?"

It was interesting to see how shy he was despite of how big and tall he became after he phased. I could tell that he still feels a little awkward with his new body from how he has been accidently hitting himself at the edge of the counters whenever he was helping me prepare breakfast for everyone.

I responded, "sure, you can. You can use the guest room's shower."

His face lit up, and he said with a grin, "thank you!"

I nodded. I took this time to shower as well because I only had my pajamas on. I decided to let my curly hair was flow naturally on my back. I put on think gray jogger pants with a white crew t-shirt on. Seth was by Kim's side, attending to her needs. He told me that he got everything covered for her. I brought a bowl of warm water, towel, self-cleaning wipes, and some personal items for her to clean herself up.

Kim said that Sue would prefer if she stayed in bed for another bed to recover and that she was recovering just nicely. Amelia is healthy. Her lungs are developed thankfully despite of being born a little earlier than normal. It was probably due to her wolf genes that she was able to be born with perfect set of lungs and without any abnormalities. Kim gave Amelia for me to wash as I give her time to herself to clean herself. She has been with Amelia the whole day, so she needs a little break from the baby. I held onto her. I could see from Kim's expression that she was still a bit somber from Jared, so I had an idea.

I went through the closet, and I found a camera. I went with it and I took a picture of Amelia and Kim, and I told Seth to go over to his house and show the picture to Jared. It might give Jared some piece of mind to see how they are doing. Also, it can help Kim to know how Jared is doing. Seth was more than willing to do this favor for us, so he took the picture and ran off to his house.

Kim said tearfully, "thank you."

I nodded stiffly. I can't imagine how she felt, and she is in my care, I gotta be a good hostess to her, don't I? Also, focusing on her and Amelia, it helps me to keep my mind off everything that happened. I was also curious with what the council is going to do with Bella, but I am glad we were able to stop the story from progressing even worse.

I was at the living room cradling a sleeping Amelia, when I heard a loud truck pulling up with a loud knock on the door. Whoever it was, that person was knocking was hard and quickly. I got up slowly, and I gave Amelia back to Kim. She already got herself cleaned up and dress from the clothes that I lent to her to use.

Kim asked me, "who is it?"

I said, "I don't know, but I will get back to you."

She nodded, and I went to open the front door. I was face-to-face with a furious Bella. She had hands in fist at each side. Her shoulder was trembling in rage.

Sigh. This isn't going to be pretty.
