A/N: Hey ya'll here's another chapter for you. Hope you enjoy! Until next time...
Sam POV- November 4th
"Bellie Boo Boo, I'm Home!" Looking up towards the second level balcony only to see a white blur bomb into the pool I can only guess that the two other Cullen's have finally joined us. "Emmett! I told you not to do that! There are children here, what kind of example are you setting! Ugh, unbelievable!" Seeing the blonde one yelling at the lug in the pool while my imprint laughs at the guys shenanigans, I do have to admit that it is a little funny. The white blur known as Emmett jumps out of the pool as the upset Blondie gives him a towel to dry off with as she proceeds to scold him. "Rosie, it's fine. The guys were doing it earlier. I think we just might install a slide so that the kids can have the same enjoyment as their fathers are having." Rose doesn't look any happier about that set of information but stops as she envelops my Elle in a sisterly hug. "I missed you Belle. Um, is Justin here at all? I didn't really smell his reek anywhere." Everyone by the pool area goes silent and the only noise is the laughter coming from the kids on the playground set. The floor is all Elle's for the taking. "Well… He's actually not here right now." The hulk of a vampire, Emmett walks over and takes my mate into a big hug before questioning her thoroughly. "That wasn't vague at all Bellie Boo Boo. What's up? You're not telling us something? Is he not with the wolf girl anymore because from what Jake said they were mates right?" Hearing my pack brothers name got all the guys on edge as Emmett continues, "Look, it sucks. We get it, Justin fucked up and brought an innocent woman into the mix of things when he should have manned up and told Cassie the truth. From her standpoint she was beyond heartbroken but Cassie had to get over it faster than someone normally would. Shit happened and Jake... He was there for her every step of the way. Even though the guy stinks of wet dog he is honesty super chill and fucking hilarious! There wasn't a day where we didn't fuck something up with our pranks but you know our girls they got our balls in reign." Rose swiftly slaps her husband behind the head before she speaks. "Cassie gave me paperwork that Justin needs to sign. I don't know how he's gonna take it but I have them." Elle's face is in deep thought right now. I can only guess what type of papers they are? Divorce papers obviously. I come out of my own musing by my mates next question. "Is she happy right now? With Jake? Are they… Do you see them being together more than just friends?" Emmett has a huge ass smile on his face before answering her, "Jake fucking loves her Belle. I know it was extremely fast after all the ache she had to endure but that guy is a fucking life savor. They would go on long walks, talk for hours at a time. He started teaching her the basics of mechanics which made Rose like Jake just a little more than normal. We could see how much Justin and Cassie were in love but those two. They are soul mates through and through. I know that Jake doesn't want to push her into a relationship until she talks to Justin and I respect him for that because it shows how much he really wants to make things work with Cassie. She agreed to those terms as well. But he needs to sign the divorce papers before she comes, it's inevitable. They are both meant to be with other people." Just when Elle was about to say something someone else cuts her off. "Did you just say Fucking Divorce Papers!?" Turning around all I see is an enraged Justin with my pack sister who has sadness held within her eyes. Fuck I swear this guys needs to choose what he really wants and soon. If not he'll lose Leah for good! With that Leah runs back into the house. Elle runs past Justin and follows Leah hoping to stop her in her hasty departure.
Justin POV - November 4th
We just finished eating dinner at Leah's favorite restaurant when she said that she wasn't feeling too good. So instead of heading to the movies like we planned I asked her if she wanted to see the massive entertainment room at Belle's house. Of course she was all smiles at that so I took that as a yes. After the long ride home from Seattle I head straight to what use to be my old home. Yes, old home. I decided to move closer to Leah especially after I found out that she was pregnant with my baby. If I was being honest with myself my mate is really beautiful in a natural earthy way. I don't know if that sounds stupid but Leah puts my wolf at ease. The woman doesn't need makeup or sexy clothes to be gorgeous to me. When I was with Cassie it was pretty much the same way too. My wolf liked her smell and the strength she had after going through such a dreadful past. She never had to dress up fancy it's not like she didn't enjoy it but what can I say my wife is a girly girl at heart. I always thought that my Cassie was my imprint well until I actually imprinted that is. Meeting my true mate just caused my emotions to go haywire. Confusion, lust, love, regret, disgust, devotion. Happiness could be in my whole persona one minute and then I suddenly get overwhelmed with deep depression in the next. Just having my feelings all over the place threw me off constantly but in the end it was never Leah's fault. I am the only one to blame, I should have spoken up when I had the chance and knowing that Rose and Emmett are coming to town soon I'm sure to be receiving some ass whooping!
Gazing over to my right I take in the sight before me, I really need to show my mate how much she really means to me. I just need to speak with Cassie before starting something serious with Leah, she deserves to have all of me not just half. That's not fair to her, and it's definitely not fair to our child. Moving a strand of hair out of her eyes and tucking it behind her ear I try to awaken her from her deep slumber, "Lee… Hey, we're here. Did you want me to carry you in? You know I don't mind." Watching as she slowly opens her eyes I can see true love showing in those depths and it takes my breath away for a moment. Smiling down I take her face into my hands and do the unthinkable. I press my lips onto her own. It's not rough but I can feel the tingle and underlining passion within. Gently nibbling on her bottom lip she willingly opens up and that's when I devour her. Her scent, taste, everything just clouds my mind and hearing her moan. God, I need to stop before we cross a line that we both don't want to. Moving back a little to give her some air I swoop in slowly to lay another chaste kiss on her lips before grabbing our stuff. Getting out of my truck I move around to open her door. Taking her hand into my own, it feels right, warm, content. I want to feel guilty about it a very small part of me does but in this very moment I just want to soak up whatever happiness I can get.
Upon entering the house I can tell that Rose and Emmett are here just by the scent in the air. Not sure if my wife has returned with them but eager to find out I move quickly down the basement stairs and towards the pool area. I faintly hear Leah right behind me when I tune into Emmett's conversation that is currently happening outside. "Jake fucking loves her Belle. I know it was extremely fast after all the ache she had to endure but that guy is a fucking life savor. They would go on long walks, talk for hours at a time, horseback riding whenever she got too emotional. He started teaching her the basics of mechanics which made Rose like Jake just a little more than normal. We could see how much Justin and Cassie were in love but those two. They are soul mates through and through. I know that Jake doesn't want to push her into a relationship until she talks to Justin and I respect him for that because it shows how much he really wants to make things work with Cassie. She agreed to those terms as well. But he needs to sign the divorce papers before she comes, it's inevitable. They are both meant to be with other people." Just listening to Emmett's speech about my wife and Jake makes my insides churn. She's moved on? The guy's in love with her already... Of course who wouldn't fall in love with my wife, she's amazing. Wow, Jake wants us to speak before committing himself to her? That sounds like something I would do. Wait, WHAT!? Did he just say? "Did you just say Fucking Divorce Papers!?" Not realizing I spoke these words out loud until I feel Bellie run past me after my imprint. FUCK! Damn it Justin, not again. I just keep fucking shit up with my radiant beauty!
Closing my eyes I go to follow Bellie and Leah when a hand stops me. Looking up I notice the hand belongs to the Quileute Alpha, Sam. Giving him a questionable eye he answers before I need to ask. "Let Elle take care of it brother. I think you need to speak with these two before figuring things out with Leah. It'll help both sides in the long run, don't you think?" Sighing to myself I silently agree before going to welcome my two favorite Cullen's. "Hey Man, how you been?" I say walking up to Emmett, he just shakes right hand before giving me a massive punch into my gut. "Ugh, Fuck! Okay, I deserved that one." Laughing at my response I finally get an answer, "I missed you too brother! But man, you fucked shit up fast didn't you?" Showing him the finger I turn my eyes towards Rosie, oh man, she looks pissed off. "I'm sorry Rosie." With my head down I continue, "I know I hurt her so much. I want to say it was an accident because in actuality it was but in the end I can't change what happened. I would if I could but I can't." Looking up again I see that she moved closer, taking my hand to help me up from my crouched position she then proceeds to sucker punch me the exact same spot as her husband. "Oh Fuck! Shit that hurt more than the first one." Feeling a light tap on my shoulder I gaze up to see her smiling. "You'll be forgiven Justin. As soon as you sign these papers." Staring at her in disbelief all I can feel is hurt. I stand up with hardness in my eyes as I take the envelope from her. "I'll sign these after I talk to my wife." With that said I turn to walk back into the house but before I can fully reach the door I hear Rosie's voice once more. "Don't cause her more pain then you already have Jus… You promised to love and protect her for better or worse. Now is the time to protect her… To protect her from you." I know she's right. By not signing I am disregarding my wife once again, I just... I don't want to lose her anymore than I already have and the thought of that happening frightens me more than anything else. The thought of Losing my first love. With not a word left to say I head to the one room that I have not been able to go to since Cassie left. Our Love Sweet, our bedroom.
