A week or so passed, and Carlisle came to pay me a visit. It was pretty useless, he had nothing. James was so worried, and I, I just wanted this to be over.
Most days I drifted off into my own little world. I completely closed myself off from everything and everyone. I couldn't handle all the doubt and fear. Alice and Jasper were gone, the only ones who could even begin to relate.
I kept telling myself to pull it together, everyone needed me. I was the strongest, and I was being selfish. They need me, they need my powers. Without me, they are strong, but with me they are indestructible.
Despite all that, I stayed home. Carlisle, Esme, Emmett, or Rosalie would come visit regularly. I told them they only thing I could, Alice and Jasper were okay. I couldn't say anymore, I wasn't going to lose anyone's trust. As if I could tell. I was beginning to lose trust in myself.
"When you lose trust in yourself, there's no use in living," Edward said, catching me off guard.
"Well, maybe you can start the fire?" I smiled.
"Maybe if you start trusting these they'll become more clear," he said.
"That's doubtful," I said passively.
"Why are you so negative?" he questioned.
"Maybe because my life isn't the big fairytale yours is!" I yelled. "Maybe I don't have my precious little kid and wife there for me! Maybe I'm all alone!"
"What? Oh my god! Stop being a drama queen! The man you loved was dead and you brought him back! You have another guy who loves you and is there for you, and you like him too. You man even be…" he cut off.
"What? Be what?" I asked.
"Never mind," he shook it off.
"Edward!" I yelled, "tell me!"
"No, it's nothing," he shook it off.
"Edward Anthony Masen Cullen!" I growled.
"You may find out soon enough," he replied calmly.
"You know I can pry it from the deepest depths of your mind."
"I'm trusting you to not do that," he smiled.
"We did have an agreement," I thought.
"We'll find out soon, so forget about it until then," he said.
"I don't even know what it is!" I said in annoyance.
"It's better that way," he smiled.
I growled, "You are so annoying sometimes!"
"So are you," he laughed.
"I don't find this funny."
"I do," he smiled. "You just look soo coote when you're frustrated!" he said in a baby voice and tried to pinch my cheeks.
I swatted his hand away, "Don't make me rip that arm off!"
"You wouldn't wanna do that, now would you?" he smiled.
"I would," I smiled back
"You're so mean," he pouted.
"I know!" I smiled.
"Okay, it's obvious who the mean Cullen is."
"Obviously," I nodded.
"Why are you so mean?" he asked.
"Cause I can be?" I squeaked. "And don't you have something better to do than bug me to death?"
"Well I do, but I really do enjoy doing this."
"Well, I really don't."
"So, where's James?" he asked.
I sat there quietly and ignored him. I made sure I had my mind closed. Maybe he'd get bored and leave. I really should start locking my doors. I really just wanted to be alone to think. I had a lot to think about.
What if Alice never came back? I needed her so badly. One, she's my sister, and two, she was the wedding planner. Without Alice, Rose and I wouldn't be able to get it done. Without Alice the family had no bright, happy Alice to make things better.
Then, there's Jasper. He is one of my bestest friends. I could talk to him when I felt lost. He could always cheer me up. He could always calm me down. Now, he's gone, Alice is gone, and there's a big empty space in my life.
Edward left me alone and went home. James was out hunting with the pack. I trusted him and so did they. I just hoped he didn't screw up and break that trust…Nah! James wouldn't, couldn't do that. If he did, my world would fall apart.
A knock on my door broke me out of my daze and make me jump. I got up off the couch and went to get it.
"Hey," Embry smiled.
"Hey sweetie," I smiled, "come in."
He kissed my forehead, "How are you?"
I exhaled, "A bit better. I'm glad you're here."
He smiled greatly at this. We were doing better now. "I'm glad to hear that."
"How are you?" I asked.
"Better, a lot better," he replied.
"You should come over more, now that Jacob made ya'll come back here to La Push."
"I should," he agreed.
"I miss you," I admitted
"I miss you too," he added.
"I'm reluctant to admit it, but I need you in my life," I admitted. I finally realized it recently. I was ready to face all the pain and regret, I needed him.
He smiled and took me into his arms as he sat beside me. "I'm happy to finally hear that."
"I'm relieved to finally say it!" I laughed.
"I've missed this," Embry smiled while he gently ran his hand down my arm.
"Do you miss my heat?" I smiled.
"No, there's not too much difference. It's nice," he smiled.
"Did you miss this?" I smiled and nuzzled his neck.
His breath became a bit rigid, "Yeah."
I ran my hand up his hick and into his hair. My face got closer to his, and I could feel his breath on my face.
"What about this?" I whispered as my mouth closed in on his.
"Definitely," he breathed. We looked at each other and smiled.
He pushed me down on the couch and hovered over me.
"Yeah," I breathed, "I missed this too." I smiled and pulled his face to mine. So much passion…he pulled my shirt off, and my red lace bra was revealed. We were breathing heavy, though I didn't have to breathe at all. There was so much passion in his kiss.
"Embry," I moaned as he kissed down my neck to my chest. His hands moved down to the waist of my sweats and pulled them off. I used my powers and removed his shorts.
I pulled his hair and he growled. "Do you know what you're doing to me?" he smiled.
"Do you know what you're doing to me?" I smiled and looked down. He grinned and pressed into me. "Look who's being a tease now." I said.
I put my thumbs in the side of my panties and slid them down. Embry lustfully eyed me as he pulled down his boxers. He slowly pushed himself inside. I moaned quietly, and he smiled and thrust hard. I gasped and smiled. He kept at this steady, hard pace, grunting and growling.
I moaned louder, then, started to scream a bit. Soon, his name started to cross my lips.
"I love it when you scream my name," he moaned.
"Embry!" I moaned.
"Say it again," he begged.
"Embry! Oh god! Embry!" I screamed. I was quickly reaching my climax.
Embry suddenly gasped, pulled out, and jumped up.
"Oh shit!" I gasped. We wasn't alone.
Sam, Quil, Paul, Jared, and James walked in. Everyone's mouths were wide open. They were too shocked to run out of the room. James just stood there smiling and shaking his head.
By this time we both, Embry and I, had what clothes we had on back in their places. I could not believe I had let my guard down like that. I was really, really enjoying myself.
Embry and I stared at each other in shock. James was…smiling?
"Okay," I broke the silence, "what the hell?"
"Why the hell is he smiling?" Embry asked.
"I…I don't know," I gaped.
" I knew this would happen," James laughed.
"Okay," Paul said, "images in my head…go away!"
I couldn't help myself, I busted out laughing.
"She's got a hot ass, don't she?" James smiled.
"James!" I gasped and slapped him on his arm.
"Yeah," Paul said.
"Oh my god Paul!" Jared yelled.
"It's true," Embry added.
"I know," I smiled and shook my ass.
"Couldn't you guys have walked in a few minutes later?" Embry said in frustration.
"Should we leave and come back?" Paul smiled.
"If ya'll do, just stay gone for the rest of the night," I said with a smile.
"Well, I like that idea," Embry smiled.
"I hope you know you'll be up all night, my baby doesn't sleep," James grinned.
"I can handle it," Embry smiled.
"Hmm, should I leave the two of you alone?" James wondered aloud.
"This isn't a joke this time?" Quil asked.
"No," James and I said in unison.
"Alright you kids have fun, and don't do anything I wouldn't do," James winked.
"Come James," Sam said, "You can help us patrol."
"Can he run with me?" Quil asked.
"Why not?" Sam said.
"Awesome!" Quil said, "Let's go!"
The pack and James left, leaving Embry and me alone…again.
"I think James is starting to like me," he said.
"Yeah, we've talked, and we've come to an understanding. I can't stay away form you, it kills me. So, he's decided I can be with both of you. Even when we get married."
"Oh…foolin' around with a married woman," he purred.
I smiled, "You're lucky."
"I feel lucky," he smiled in return.
"You should," I smiled as I leaned in and kissed him.
"Oh I really, really do," he smiled as I took my bra off.
"Not many people get to see this," I said, seduction dripping from my voice.
"Even less get to touch," he whispered as he ran his hands up my back, then pulled me closer.
"That's true," I smiled in agreement.
"And I'm willing to bet," he smiled and ran his lips from my neck, to my jaw, to my lips, "only a select few get to do this."
"Hmm," I moaned with satisfaction, "just to think only I get to do this." I smiled and pushed him to the floor. I smiled and got on top of him and ran my lips from his lips to the waist of his boxers.
I got up with a satisfied smirk on my face. I walked towards the stairs and turned around to motion seductively for him to follow. He gladly obeyed and followed my lead. I stopped at the door and blocked him at the frame.
"You know when you step into this room, it's all over…No more avoiding it. Every wall we've built up comes tumbling down," I said.
"I know," he replied, "I'm ready.
"Well, in that case," I smiled and started taking my panties off. I threw them at his face, and he caught them in his mouth.
"You can keep those," I smiled. Embry smiled and pulled me close to him. His lips locked with mine.
My eyes darted open, and I pushed away from Embry with a gasp.
"What about the other one?" Aro asked as James and I stood in front of him hand in hand.
"The other?" I questioned, but then I realized it. "Oh, yes, Embry." Embry, in wolf form, eyed me. "Phase," I whispered to him.
"Now?" his thoughts hissed.
"Yes now!" I hissed, "I got you!"
Embry phased without anyone seeing, and walked to my side.
"Embry," Aro smiled. Embry looked shocked…with a hint of fear.
"Yes, this is Embry Call, my other, other half," I smiled.
"A love from each side," Aro grinned, "I never in all of my days thought I'd see it. You're all standing fright in front of me, very real."
"And to think, our friend Carlisle was the one to change her!" Marcus said.
"He is very lucky in deed," Aro agreed.
"It's quite odd, actually. Vampire venom is supposed to kill our kind," I motioned towards Embry, "but it didn't kill me."
"It's your destiny dear," Carlisle spoke up.
"I guess so," I agreed.
"You will learn a lot about your destiny today," Aro said.
"It does seem so," I agreed.
"So she really is the chosen one?" James questioned.
"Yes James, she is," Aro replied.
"So that means I…and he," he thought.
"Yes," Aro laughed.
"Wow," James gasped.
"So this is why she changed," Embry said.
"Yes," Aro smiled, "So we can all tell who she is. And besides, doesn't it make her look like an angel?"
"She's always been my angel," James smiled.
"So, shall we continue?" I asked.
"Yes my," Aro replied.
I cut him off, "Michelle, please."
"Michelle," he smiled in return.
I was thrown back into reality. Embry had me lying on the bed, covered up, and he was carefully watching over me.
"Hey," I smiled.
"Hey honey," he smiled and kissed my forehead.
"Did I scare you?" I winced.
"No, I'm used to it by now," he smiled, "stop being so apologetic."
"I can't help it," I frowned.
He lifted my chin, and our eyes met, "Don't ever be sad about who you are, not in front of me." He brought my faces to his and we kissed.
"I love you," I smiled.
"I love you too," he smiled back.
"What time is it?" I exhaled.
"One," he replied.
"Sorry all this time's been lost," I sort of laughed.
He laughed too, "I'm pretty sure we can make up for it."
"And we will," I smiled, "but first, my partial human, you need some rest. I don't want you passing out on me."
"You just have to know everything," he smiled back.
I rolled my eyes, "Lie down jealous, I mean Embry."
"Bitchy," he said with a smile and laid down.
"Sleep," I said serenely. Embry automatically fell asleep.
I sat up and started thinking about the vision I had. I was still very confused. It would be here soon enough. I just have to be patient and wait.
I heard someone trying to stealthily sneak around my window. I laughed to myself and quietly went to the balcony.
"Boo!" I laughed and Emmett jumped.
"Damn! You caught me!" he frowned.
"What, trying to see how it's really done?" I smirked.
"No!" he said defensively.
"Embry's asleep, come in," I said, and Em jumped up.
"I heard what happened," he laughed.
"Of course," I rolled my eyes.
"Make up for it?" he asked.
"Nope, vision stopped me. I just came out of it. I made him go to sleep, he looked tired."
"Edward said it was something like that. He said your voice disappeared too quickly for you to have shut it off voluntarily."
"He learns quickly," I replied.
"That's Edward," he laughed.
"Just wait till the day he actually gets to see one," I laughed. "I have a feeling after all this stuff happens, I'll be back to normal."
"Hopefully you well," he said.
"So, why didn't Rose come?"
"Oh, she didn't know I was coming."
"Oh, how I rub off on you!" I laughed.
"I know right!" he laughed.
"My twin!" I laughed and hugged him.
"The teddy bear and the baby doll," he smiled.
"More like Pussycat Doll!" I laughed.
"Angel doll," Em smiled and pecked my cheek.
"But that's Ashley's nickname!"
He laughed, "Well she's just gonna have to get a new one!"
"Ya can't mess with the Dolls' nicknames! Ashley's Angel Doll, Jessica is Pin-Up Doll, Kimberly is Flexy Doll, Melody is Baby Doll, Nicole is Queen Doll, and Carmit was Foxy Doll!"
"Well what the hell are you?" he laughed.
"Umm…I don't know?" I smiled innocently.
"You don't know!" he gasped, then laughed.
"Let's explore the possibilities…there's Diva Doll, Bitchy Doll, Vamp Doll, uh….Freaky Doll, Really, Really Complicated Doll," I laughed.
"Don't forget Wolf Doll," he added.
"Oh yeah, can't forget that one!" I laughed.
"I think I'm sticking with Baby Doll," he decided.
"But!" I argued.
"No buts!"
"Imma kick your butt!"
"Bring it on sis!" he boomed.
"We need to take this outside?"
"Maybe we do!"
"Bring it on bro!" I taunted as I walked to the balcony and jumped off; when I jumped I did a triple layout and landed.
"Show off," Em scoffed as he landed.
"Don't be jealous Em, I can't help I'm multi-talented," I mocked as Em and I circled each other. "You better run."
"I better run?" he laughed, "Sis, I think you better run." He lifted his leg about to kick, and I ran. Of course, he ran after me.
I used my power of transportation and put myself behind Em without him even knowing.
"I told you to run!" I giggled.
He turned around in surprise, "Damn you and them powers!"
"Run Emmett, run!" I laughed. Em continued to run and I followed after.
"What the hell?" Paul thought as we came up on him, in wolf form, of course.
"Block him Paul!" I shouted. Paul tried to block Emmett, but Em passed him. It slowed him down, and I kicked his ass.
"Ow!" Em boomed.
I stuck my tongue out and mocked Emmett. "Nice Paul!" I said and bumped my fist against Paul's nose. Paul was laughing.
"You are so not gonna get away with that!" Emmett said.
"Yes I am because you can't catch me!" I laughed and disappeared.
I hope everyone is enjoying the story. It's starting to get pretty intense!
Please review! I really would like to hear some thoughts on how its going!
