Our Dawn
Part III
Book 1 – Weakness & Strength
Leah Clearwater
Chapter 8 – Déjà Vu
Maybe I was being paranoid. Maybe I was just overreacting. Maybe I didn't like to be told that I didn't smell good, but Rosalie's words really got on my nerves and made me think about stupid things.
Our smell was disgusting to the leeches and it was exactly the same for us. The only time the leeches had told me I smelled differently was when I was pregnant.
But I couldn't be, could I? I mean I could still phase so that meant no menstruation cycle. Carlisle had told me that during the mating season I would have my period back for about four months and that was why I was on the pill, because I didn't want to get pregnant like the first time. If I had more children I wanted to plan things the right way.
I had been safe and the mating season was almost over so I couldn't possibly be pregnant. Rosalie either was trying to piss me off or she was the one with problems. Maybe she was sick…although she was dead. Weird much, right?
I tried to keep my cool during most of the day but I knew I would eventually freak out at some point so I asked Seth to stay with Harry for a while and I went to buy a damn pregnancy test. A strange sense of déjà vu was present when I paid for the test and walked home alone.
I stopped a few times to analyse what was really happening to me. Six years ago I had Alice and Bella on my case and despite being told that I was barren, I had all the symptoms of a pregnant woman. That's why I took Alice's advice and ended up with six magical white sticks with pink lines. Right now no one had pressured me, I had been on the pill, I didn't have any symptoms, and Rosalie Bitch had only told me I smelled worse than usual.
I was obviously losing my mind. Since when was my bad smell a symptom of pregnancy? I was being paranoid. If I'd return the test would I be given a refund? Because honestly I shouldn't be doing it. That would only indicate that I was being an idiot by letting Rosalie's words affect me that much.
So now I had two choices: go and return the stupid test or go home and hide it or put it in the garbage. The third option was purely paranoia. I wouldn't take the stupid test.
Jacob and I hadn't talked much about having more kids. Since I was able to read his thoughts while we were phased, I knew he wanted more children but he would tell me when that time come, because as a couple Jacob knew he would have to respect my decision. That was why I was on the pill during the mating season. We didn't want to be "surprised" again.
I didn't really know if I wanted to have more kids and this wasn't certainly the best time. Jacob was in Italy trying to get our son home. Besides although we owned our house, we were having financial problems since forever. We had jobs but we had two kids who had just started school plus we still had to pay a few debts because of that freaking garage that Jacob had bought. So, again, it wasn't the best time.
Since we had been careful I probably had nothing to worry about. But then again fate always found a way to back stab me so I went home, straight into my damn bathroom and took the test out of the small bag. I couldn't avoid thinking that six years ago I had done exactly the same thing.
Back then things were worse. I was single, I had slept with Jacob only twice and our feelings for each other weren't still defined. I still thought he was pining over Bella and Jacob still thought I was in love with Sam.
We weren't even prepared to become parents. Suddenly I remembered the first year after we got married. It was absolutely horrifying. I had always dreamed of being a mother someday but I wasn't honestly expecting to get pregnant back then. I was only twenty-two and Jacob was eighteen years old. We both loved our kids but that didn't make us experts so my mother had to teach me everything about being a parent and even after Jacob moved in with me, things didn't turn better. I couldn't actually count on him.
Of course he watched over them, sometimes he even helped giving them a bath or feeding them but everything else was on me. I had to put them to sleep, I had to cook, to clean, to go shopping and to take care of the clothes. I wouldn't have so much troubles if I'd stayed a single mother because with Jacob living with us it was like having a third child to take care of.
And Jacob was even more spoiled than his own children. He thought that being a father was to be married with the mother of his children and love her and the kids. He thought he could still go hang out with his friends and that he could still have his old life and his old habits. So that's what he did during our first year of marriage. What annoyed the crap out of me was that he actually thought that by saying "I love you" he would be forgiven and everything would be alright. I did fall for that several times but I blamed it on his cute smile and his damn hotness.
With time he understood things weren't that easy and he matured a little. He started to help me more with the kids when he came back from Seattle. There was only one lesson he hadn't learned yet about living together: the fucking toilet seat.
So it was hard to have two children, to get married and to start a life together. Being in love with him helped a lot and was the only thing that kept me from murdering him in his sleep. Thinking about it, I enjoyed the idea of being Jacob Black's wife and the mother of his children but how would he react to another unplanned pregnancy?
I ripped the damn package and took the test. I had bought it so I guess I should do the damn thing to be able to calm down. I waited five long minutes feeling again that odd sense of déjà vu and then I saw the pink line. What the fuck? How could I be pregnant? It was like the first time all over again.
A million of emotions rushed into my body at the same time. I had two children already so I guess I shouldn't feel so surprised with the fact that one more was on the way. I mean it wasn't the first time I was in that situation plus Jacob and I were now a married couple who just happened to have a lot of amazing sex for two weeks in Australia.
But suddenly I panicked: what if I had twins again? I was going to kill him. Stupid mating season. Stupid hormones. Stupid sexy, hot, amazing husband. I put the test on the waste bin and rested my hands on my belly. I couldn't help to smile. Either I had twins or not, I was expecting my…his…our third child. I guess patrols were out of the picture for me.
xxxxxxxxxx
This time I was going to do the right thing. Jacob would be the first to know about my condition and I wanted to tell him personally so I guess I had to wait until he came home.
Esme had been posting us constantly about what was happening in Italy and so far the information we had was kind of disappointing. Edward and William had arrived three days ago at the bat-cave. Alice had a vision about Edward calling them so she was sure that they were fine. While I was waiting for more information and details, Sam had come to speak to me offering his help if we needed to send someone over to Italy to assist the Cullens and Jacob. For some reason I believed that Sam was too interested in me again and I tried to keep him away.
Seth was going to stay with us until Jacob came home and Rebecca and Embry had finally set the date for their wedding. It was going to be in June. I would be about three months pregnant by then. I hadn't stopped thinking about it since I had done the pregnancy test. I had even dreamed about holding a beautiful little girl in my arms.
I really didn't know how other people would react but I was only worried about what Jacob would do when he found out he was going to be a father again. Since I had returned to work, my adorable co-workers hadn't stopped bugging me about where my husband was. At first they all thought we were going to have a divorce. That would be great news for the female population in La Push. Jacob was still twenty-four years old besides being terribly sexy and hot plus the circumstances of our marriage had always been interpreted as a "way-out" for both of us.
Meaning: everyone thought we were married because he had knocked me up and our parents had forced us to be together for the sake of our children. I realised then that Jacob was right. Everyone in La Push had a bet on how long we would remain married.
Since it was Saturday and Seth was going to take Harry to see the Cullens, I decided to do something that I had never thought I would. I went shopping with Kim. Emily was supposed to go with us to Port Angeles too but Levi wasn't feeling well so she stayed at home.
Kim was nice. She was indeed the quietest of all the imprint girls I had met. Emily had always interfered with the pack. She was, in the beginning, the alpha's girlfriend, the wolves' girl, just like Bella had called her once. Sam allowed her to participate in our meetings and she had always tried to give him advices.
Rachel was…well Rachel was fierce and demanding. She didn't care much about pack related stuff. She just bitched about Paul's duties towards the pack and complained about him being away from her and their kids for too long. We always had our doubts about who was the real "man" in that relationship. I had my money on Rachel Black, of course.
Rebecca was like her sister but even more demanding, especially because she didn't get to date Embry like Rachel had managed to do with Paul. She was thrown into this "imprinting" world out of the blue when she was still married to "what-his-name-surfer" besides her relationship with Embry was, in the beginning, pretty tense. She got pregnant unexpectedly and had to deal with a lot of crap from her husband. She didn't like when Embry was out on patrol, especially after David was born. Usually Rebecca didn't give a shit about vampires or wolves. All she wanted was a quiet life.
Claire was still too young but she had Quil whipped. For real.
Kim was, in my personal opinion, the perfect girlfriend. She never bitched about anything, not even when Jared couldn't make it to the movies because he was stuck on patrol. She was just this kind and nice girl who accepted Jared's lifestyle and his duties and never, not even once, tried to overpower him. She never asked about things related to the pack and she never forced him to do anything.
I watched as Kim folded the yellow baby's clothes she had bought. She was three months pregnant now but she didn't know if she was going to have a boy or a girl. Therefore she was buying yellow and white baby's clothes.
"Have you told Jerry he's going to have a brother or a sister?" I asked. I would have to talk to my kids too about that.
"Yes. He's really excited. I don't think he'll be jealous of his little brother or sister."
I remembered about my own childhood I was six years old when Seth was born and in the first couple of months I was jealous of him. I thought that my mother and father would forget about me because they only seemed to care about the new baby.
"Have you and Jared thought about names?"
"A little." She confessed. "Do you want to suggest one?"
"No. That's not really my business."
"You can tell me…It can't be worse than Paul's suggestions."
I laughed. Thanks the Spirits that Rachel was the one in charge of picking up her children's names, otherwise little Daniel would've been called Mario Dante, after two stupid characters from videogames.
"If you had a girl, what name would you choose?" Kim insisted.
"Sarah." I said immediately.
Kim looked at me and then smiled.
"That's really sweet. Sarah was Jacob's mother, right?"
"Yes."
"I always thought you and Jacob were cute together. There are rumours about you splitting up, you know?"
"Yeah. Well…I've had worse."
"In a way…I really admire and envy you."
"Seriously? Why?"
"Jared would never love me if it weren't for the imprint."
"You're a nice girl, Kim. I'm sure he would notice you sooner or later."
"I don't think so. He would never look at me…I may be nice and kind but I'm not pretty like you or Emily and I don't have all that strength Rebecca and Rachel have."
"Come on Kim…I'm not that perfect. I'm actually pretty bitchy…at least I used to be."
"I guess they like girls like you better."
"What are you talking about?"
"Did you think Jacob was the only one feeling attracted to you? There was Embry, Brady and even Denis."
"Are you sure?" I asked surprised.
I knew about Embry's previous crush on me, before Rebecca came along, of course. But Brady and Denis? I was six, maybe seven years older than Denis.
"Jared caught Brady once mopping about you having fallen for Jake and not him. As for Denis, he worships you. He thinks you're the perfect woman."
I was stunned.
"I didn't know."
"Now you do. They really like girls like you. I'm just plain boring and I do have a lot of flaws…I'm not perfect and Jared wouldn't look at me twice if he hadn't imprinted on me."
"You don't give yourself much credit, do you?"
She shrugged.
"Sometimes I just wonder what my life would be like if we hadn't imprinted…if we had fallen in love the old way. What I feel for Jared is real and strong but I was imposed to him by fate. Your love is more real than our imprint bond."
I had always known that. Jacob and I had always believed that our love was more powerful than an imprint and I believed that was the reason why against all odds I had given him two sons and was now pregnant again.
"I think you're right Kim but…you should be proud that you're one of the chosen ones. My marriage will always have a time limit in case Jacob imprints."
"But didn't doctor Cullen proved that you two will never imprint?"
"What Carlisle said makes sense to me and to Jacob but it doesn't mean it's one hundred per cent right. Even vampires can be wrong."
"When I see you and Jacob together all I see is a real couple. No magic strings, no fate deciding for you. But I am thankful for being able to be in Jared's life."
I smiled and we spent a few minutes in silence.
"So…what about the names?" I asked.
"Well…. I like Amber or maybe Jael."
"And if it's a boy?"
"Jonah or Jesse."
"I like it. So where are we going next? Do you need more babies' clothes?"
"No, I just need to go buy Jared's new uniform."
Jared, Sam and Paul were now Forest Guards. The job suited them well. Who would know the forest better than three wolves, right?
We walked slowly through the streets of Port Angeles and we stopped in two more stores. I was proving a new pair of jeans when I felt a stench burning my nose. There was a vampire near by. I told Kim to stay put and left the store immediately but I didn't phase. I decided not to phase for two main reasons: I was pregnant and I was in a crowded city.
It wasn't Rosalie, Emmett or Esme, I knew that for sure. The Cullens had a scent that I was used to feel and I would recognise it immediately. This leech was an outsider, probably a nomad. I was surprised to feel the stench of a non-vegetarian leech in the city during the day but then again it was cloudy and vampires could walk around undetected. I followed the scent through the busy streets of Port Angeles, paying attention to where I was going and to the people around me.
I really didn't know what this leech could possibly want. Nomad vampires would only hunt at night. Maybe this vampire was shopping. I mean vampires need clothes and shoes, right? Unless they would like to walk around naked which I doubted. The bloodsuckers were like us, they also had a secret to protect.
I thought about calling Seth or someone from Sam's pack but they would take at least ten minutes to arrive and we couldn't phase in the city so there was no point on doing that. Then suddenly the scent I was following vanished. I was now very close to the marina and I realised the leech had probably left swimming. Just like they were good runners, leeches were also good swimmers.
I found Kim pacing nervously near the car. I had only left for twelve minutes but she was already calling Jared.
"Tell him we're both fine and that I'll talk to them as soon as we get home." I instructed her. She did what she was told and then hung up.
"I was really worried." She confessed. "Usually I don't get in the middle of these situations."
"I know. I'm sorry…"
"You should've called your pack."
"It was only one leech and I think he or she was just passing by."
"Why didn't you call Embry, Quil or Seth?" She insisted.
I didn't answer. The thing was our pack wasn't complete. Jacob wasn't here to lead us and I was missing him like crazy, especially now that I was expecting a child again, besides if I had called my pack brothers I would have to tell them the reason why I couldn't phase anymore.
"How much are you missing and worrying about Jacob?" She questioned me while I was driving back home.
"Not much…Jacob is strong and…" That was all that came out of my mouth before I started breathing erratically. I guess I couldn't lie about that.
"Leah…" Kim said touching my arm. "I understand you are worried about your son and about Jacob, but not asking help from your pack brothers because you don't want to admit that he's not here is not going to help."
"I know." I whispered.
"You can talk to me if you want to…I mean…as a friend."
"I appreciate that Kim, but I'm fine."
"Are you sure?"
"You've become quite nosy after becoming a nurse, you know?"
"Sorry…" She laughed. "Can you give me a ride over to Emily's? She wants me to go check on Levi…he has a fever."
"Sure."
A fever. Levi was two years old. He couldn't possibly turn into a wolf at such a young age right?
"Have you ever thought about Jeremiah turning into a wolf?" I asked.
"Jared and I talk about it all the time."
"Really?"
"There's this competition about the kids…"
"More bets? About what?"
"Whose children will phase first. Everyone placed their money on your kids. They're Jacob's children after all…Sam was kind of jealous about it until Levi was born."
I always had the impression that Sam wanted a son and when Ella was born he was a bit disappointed.
I sighed deeply. Men…for them everything was a competition. A few minutes later I parked outside Emily's house and unfortunately Sam was there with Jared, which meant that Sam already knew about the leech in Port Angeles.
"Are you alright?" Jared asked Kim when she stepped out of the car. "I was worried."
Kim had told me about the imprint pull. Every time Jared felt she was in danger he would feel the imprint pull becoming stronger by the minute. So far that had never happened because Kim had never been in danger. The only time Jared had felt the pull was when Kim had to leave to the Makah Reservation before we faced the Volturi.
"I'm fine. Leah was with me. Did you leave Jerry alone?"
"He's with my mum." Jared replied.
"Did you follow the leech on your own?" Sam asked me.
"Yes, I did. But I don't think the leech acknowledged my presence."
"Have you called your pack?" He insisted.
"No. I didn't have time."
"Come inside and tell us everything." Sam suggested. "I'm going to call the others."
If Emily hadn't joined us and invited us in, I would've told Sam that he wasn't my alpha and I would've gone home but I didn't want to be rude to my cousin, especially when after six years our relationship had improved a bit.
We waited for about fifteen minutes until everyone got there. Emily had finished her muffins when they started to show up, one by one.
Quil was the last one to join us. I told them what happened in Port Angeles and they all listened to me carefully. Only then I realised that Kim was right about Brady and Denis. They did look at me differently.
No one but Sam and Seth dramatised the event. I couldn't understand why the hell they were so damn worried about one leech. The stupid bloodsucker had probably just dropped by Port Angeles to buy something. A swimming suit, maybe?
"I didn't even see the leech." I said for the third time. "And I'm sure the leech didn't notice me either."
"Look, Leah…you should have called me." Seth said firmly. "I don't care if you think you're strong and powerful…we're a pack, remember?"
"I didn't do anything. I just followed the scent to see who it was."
"What if he attacked you?" Seth questioned sternly.
"Your brother is right." Sam stated. "Next time, call someone."
"Next time?" I gasped in annoyance. "The leech left! Are you deaf?"
"Are you sure he's not coming back?" Jared asked.
"Why would he? The Cullens told us about nomads, remember? They travel, they hunt and they never stay too long in the same place." I pointed out.
"That doesn't mean anything." Sam said. "We don't know anything about this leech. He can come to Forks."
"If he comes here, he'll be dead soon." Paul declared. "I hope he decides to visit us during my patrol."
"Don't underestimate the enemy, Paul." Sam advised. "Collin, Caleb and Justin you're on the first shift starting now."
"We'll patrol near the border and we'll speak to the Cullens too." Seth announced. Sam agreed and started to make patrol's groups.
I rolled my eyes in annoyance and then Ella came to greet me. I didn't know why but the seven year old girl liked me a lot. She looked so much like Emily when she was that age that it was scary, although she did have Sam's eyes.
I ended up inviting Ella to spend some time with Harry because he was feeling alone without William around. Emily offered to organise a day to join all the kids at my place so they could play together. I knew Kim, Rachel and Rebecca would like that too.
xxxxxxxxxx
I wasn't expecting the symptoms to start so soon. I was four weeks pregnant and I had already experienced dizziness, nausea and a lot of mood changes. So far no one had noticed. Seth was actually the only person who had been around because he felt it was his responsibility to take care of me and my son until Jacob returned.
Jacob called us everyday only to say that the stupid Italian leeches were still debating when to do an audience to receive Edward. Alice was also starting to feel suspicious, but there was nothing they could do. She had a few visions with Edward and William and she assured me that Will was being well taken care of. She even told me that Aro's wife, Sulpicia, liked to be around Will.
I saw a pattern there. Vampire women resembled infertile human women. They hadn't the chance to experience maternity and that was the reason why they enjoyed having kids around so much. In the case of a bloodsucker that was dangerous because they could lose control and end up feeding on the child or turning the kid into a leech, which was forbidden.
I wasn't worried about William because Edward was with him and because Carlisle had told us that my children's blood wasn't very appealing to leeches.
Every time I heard Jacob's voice on phone I felt the need to tell him that he was going to be a father again but I wanted to tell him face to face. I even thought about asking Esme to buy me a damn plane's ticket to Italy but Harry needed me right now.
I had asked Seth to cover patrols for me and he agreed happily because he also thought I should spend more time with Harry, who was frequently asking me when his father and brother would come home. I didn't have an answer. To make him forget about it, I invited James, David, Ella, Levi and Jeremiah often to come and play with him but I knew Harry missed William as much as I did.
After his traumatizing experience, Harry had gained the habit of sleeping with me or Seth. He didn't like to be alone at night. He wasn't going to School because he didn't want to go without Will. Since he was in the same class as Ella, she begun coming over to our house, after classes, to bring him the homework. Usually it was Emily bringing her over but that afternoon it was Sam who showed up by my house.
"Any news?" He asked me while we were waiting for Ella and Harry to finish their homework.
I nodded negatively.
"I've been thinking a lot lately." He said with a serious expression.
"About what?"
"You…" He lowered his voice.
"Sam…"
"Listen to me Leah, please." He begged and I felt I had no other option. "It's been what? Three weeks since he left?"
"Almost. But he's fine…They're both fine."
"The leeches haven't decided what to do yet…and Jacob…he can be forced to stay there or even…"
"Don't!" I warned him. "Jacob is coming home, Sam."
"But he's not home now."
"I have Harry, Seth, my mother, Quil, Embry…"
"They all have their own lives and problems. Seth should be finishing his internship and I know you feel guilty about him staying here…I'm not saying that Jacob is going to die, I'm just saying you should think about your options."
"What options, Sam?"
"That leech you followed has been around."
"What?"
"Seth and the others didn't tell you because they don't want you to worry about it. They think you have enough problems already..."
"You haven't caught the damn leech yet?"
"He never shows himself. We picked up his scent several times. It led us to Port Angeles…but then it disappears in the ocean. He's been getting close to Forks lately and we don't know what he wants. Seth has spoken to the Cullens. I believe they're investigating."
I was shocked to know that I had been left out of my pack's activities because they thought I wouldn't focus on the task of killing one damn leech but then again, I was pregnant and to phase was not an option for now.
"Seth's been replacing Jacob as leader of the pack but if…if Jacob doesn't come home, I want you to know that you can join my pack again. I promise I'll take good care of you and Harry. I'll take care of him as if he were my own son."
"But he's not." I didn't mean to sound so rough. I knew Sam was trying to help, but I couldn't accept that my husband wasn't coming home, and I would never join Sam's pack again.
"I know that."
"Harry is Jacob's son and I'm Jacob's wife." I stated proudly.
"I don't want you to be in danger."
"Is this leech coming after me?"
"I don't think so."
"Then I'm not in danger Sam. I know how to take care of myself, I'm a wolf too plus Seth's all I need."
"And when your brother leaves?"
"He won't."
"The longer Jacob stays in Italy the harder it will be for all of you. Seth can even fail the internship if he doesn't go back and as for Jake…we don't even know if the Cullens will be allowed to return much less Will and Jacob."
I clenched my fists and looked at Sam fiercely.
"I don't know what your real intentions are Sam but I'm not going back to your pack and I'm not giving up on my marriage. I love Jacob. I don't care what you think…"
Sam snorted and met my gaze.
"Don't you trust me, Lee?"
"Don't call me that. My name is Leah."
"I was your first love, Leah. I still care for you. I know you're hurting…Let me help or are you afraid to realise that your feelings for him are not that strong?"
I glared at Sam with more intensity than before.
"I'm not afraid of anything. You were my first boyfriend Sam, and nothing can change that but I believe that fate got me out of your life for a reason."
"To be with Jacob?" Sam asked ironically.
"Yes. To be with him, to be his, to have his children. I can't believe you haven't realised that after six damn years. Snap out of it Sam…I'm never going to be yours again. You have Emily, Ella and Levi and I have my own life."
"Don't get the wrong impression Leah…I'm not trying to get you back. Emily is my wife and my world. She's my imprint."
He pronounced the word "imprint" with conviction, probably to make me jealous, but I didn't feel jealous at all. I had moved on. I didn't love Sam anymore. I couldn't help to feel joy every time I thought that inside of me was growing my husband's baby.
I could've thrown that into Sam's face. I could tell him that I was having Jacob's daughter or son, our third child but I decided to be quiet.
"Fine by me, Samuel. This is the way things should be so don't come to my house tell me that my husband isn't coming home, alright?" I said grinding my teeth.
"Do you honestly think I would be happy if Jake didn't come home?"
"I don't know…You tell me."
"Jake is my friend. We are not particularly close friends but I care about him."
"And yet here you are trying to smooth me and convince me to go back to your pack."
"I'm worried about you, Lee. I'm worried about what you might do if he…"
"If he dies?" I finished for him.
"If he doesn't return." He corrected.
"I have faith in Jacob. He never let me down so far."
"I just want you to be prepared for all the possibilities."
"Jacob's death is not a possibility. He made me a promise and he will keep it." I said sternly.
"Lee..." Sam grabbed my wrist when I was about to call Ella.
"Let me go. Now."
"You're a little hot Leah. Are you feeling alright?" He asked freeing me from his grip.
Of course I was hot. I was a wolf, I was angry and I was pregnant.
"I'm fine." I said immediately. "Ella, Harry, have you finished homework?"
The kids came down the stairs and I thanked Ella for coming. Sam knew this conversation was over. I would never change my mind.
I found it quite hard to fall asleep that night. Harry was sleeping in Seth's room and I heard my brother getting up slowly to leave for patrol. I threw up all my dinner after he left, dragging myself to my bed afterwards.
I put my hands protectively around my stomach and I started crying compulsively. I wanted Jacob and William back. I wanted to feel my husband's warmth against me, I wanted to tell him we were going to have another child.
But right now he was far away from me, from his unborn child. We hadn't imprinted and yet I felt ultimately in pain being at home without him. I fell asleep whispering his name: my husband, my love, my Jacob.
End of Book 1
To be continued in Book 2 – Confidence & Vulnerability…
A/Note 3: Book 2 is going to be in Jacob's POV and it will require a change of scenario since Jake is in Italy. I'm working on it as fast as I can, but like I said before, this week won't be possible for me to write at all. So for now we have Leah coping with the fact that she's pregnant and hadn't told anyone yet. Sam's being an asshole again and a new enemy seems to have arrived.
Thanks for all the reviews.
