Recap: His Imprint. Embry smiled.
……
..
Two Days Later…
Dekan awoke early that morning, having finally slept for more than a couple of hours without the blinding need of sex coursing through her. Dekan smiled and snuggled deeper into Embry's warm embrace. Embry smiled although his eyes were still closed and nuzzled his head to Dekan's neck, kissing gently.
"Embry…" Dekan whispered, gasping softly.
"Hmmm?" Embry replied, smiling. He pulled Dekan closer.
"How can you still be hard after nearly 48 hours of constant sex?" Dekan asked.
"Because I love you? And I really, really enjoyed the past 48 hours." Embry said. Dekan giggled.
"I did too…I figured you'd be sore or, you know, empty." Dekan said. That made Embry laugh out loud.
"I could have sex with you for two hundred years and never be empty." Embry said.
"Don't tempt me. We have to leave this bedroom sooner or later." Dekan whispered, kissing the underside of Embry's chin.
"Keep that up and you won't leave ever." Embry gasped out. He pulled Dekan's hips to his, letting her feel just how ready he was for round…whatever round they would be on. Dekan moaned.
"We…we really need to…not…" Dekan whispered.
"Mmmm party pooper. I guess you're right. You need food." Embry said, hearing Dekan's stomach growl.
"That and I need to pee. Really bad." Dekan said, wriggling out of Embry's arms and making a mad dash for the bathroom. Embry pulled on his cut off jeans and a t shirt.
"I'll be in the kitchen, Dekan." Embry said, walking downstairs.
After a few moments, Dekan came out of the bathroom and looked for something to put on. She saw that Embry had left his boxers and a tank top, so Dekan dressed in that. She had no doubts that once Alice saw her state of current clothing, she'd make a run for the nearest clothes store insisting that Dekan needed new clothes. She chuckled. Dekan walked downstairs in time to hear Alice's comment.
"Woo-hoo! It's Marathon Man!" Alice said, smirking at Embry. Sam and Jasper groaned again. Jake laughed and clapped.
"Hey man, your mom has been calling non-stop. She's about to have a coronary. I told her you were busy…but…" Jake said, laughing hard.
"Thanks, Jake. I'm sure she was really happy with that explanation.
"And look who finally crawled out from underneath Embry!" Alice giggled, knowing Dekan wouldn't take offense.
"Underneath? Try on top, baby." Dekan said, winking at Alice.
"Dekan!" Sam groaned, the back of his head banging against the wall.
"Sorry, Sammy…well, not really." Dekan said with a laugh.
"Hell yeah that's my girl!" Alice said, walking up to Dekan and giving her a high-five.
Embry walked into the kitchen and was talking to Jake while he fixed food for himself and Dekan.
"Oh, Dekan before I forget. Guess who is waiting for you at the house." Sam said.
"Who?" Dekan asked.
"Your mom! Auntie Lola!" Sam said, smiling when Dekan jumped up and down.
"My mom!" Dekan shouted.
"Dekan baby, Carlisle wants you to stop by the hospital today so he can give you a check-up." Esme said, walking into the living room.
"Yes ma'am!" Dekan said. "My mom's here!"
Jasper smiled and walked up to Dekan. Dekan looked over at him and smiled, closing the distance and wrapping her arms around him. Embry walked back into the living room carrying two plates and smiled when he saw Dekan and Jasper embracing. Jasper looked at Embry then at Jasper and Dekan, wondering if Embry would get jealous or angry. He shrugged when Embry sat down on the couch, balancing the plates on his lap.
"I missed you, kiddo." Jasper whispered, resting his head on top of Dekan's.
"I missed you too, Dad." Dekan whispered back, smiling. "Thanks for coming to get me."
"Always." Jasper whispered, pulling back and tapping her butt. "Go eat." Dekan chuckled and went to the couch, taking a plate from Embry and chowing down.
"Where is everyone else at?" Dekan asked, noticing it was too quiet.
"Carlisle is at the hospital." Esme said, looking up.
"Emmett and Rosalie are out hunting." Jasper said.
"Edward is over at Bella's." Alice said.
"And we're here." Jake added, smiling.
"No way, really?" Dekan asked, smiling sweetly. Jake was about to flip her off when Alice gave him a look that stopped him. Dekan smiled.
"I love you, Alice." Dekan said.
"You better." Alice said with a smile.
"Okay, while you go see Dr. Cullen and your mom, I'll go try and do damage control with my mother. I'll see you around 8 this evening?" Embry said, looking over at Dekan.
"Sounds perfect." Dekan said, smiling.
"You mean you two can stay apart for more than ten minutes?" Jake asked, looking shocked.
"Well, we can start going at it right now if you want." Embry said, acting like he was about to take his pants off.
"No! No enough of that now. I think she's got more of you in her than you do, brother." Sam said, standing up. "Come on, let's go. See you later Dekan."
"Bye boys." Dekan said, setting her plate on the table and standing. She turned and wrapped her arms around Embry. "Bye, cutie. I love you." Dekan whispered, kissing his cheek.
"Hmmm I think I can live with that. I love you." Embry whispered, bending her backwards and kissing her.
"Break it up, kids. Don't make me get the hose out." Esme said. Alice and Jasper started laughing.
"Esme!" Dekan said, laughing, not expecting anything like that from her.
"What?" Esme asked, smiling.
"Come on, let's go." Sam said, walking outside with Jake and Embry following, getting into his Jeep.
"I'll drive you to the hospital." Alice said. "I'm taking my car!"
"Uh-oh. I'll join you both then." Jasper said, taking Dekan's hand and the three of them got into Alice's car and headed for the hospital.
……
..
Alice, Jasper, and Dekan arrived at the hospital only five minutes later due to Alice's "excited driving". Dekan was gripping Jasper's hand so tightly that if she had his strength, the bones in his hand would be a fine powder by now.
"A-Alice…I don't think you're supposed to go that fast…a couple miles over the speed limit is okay, but not 50!" Dekan said, a bit scared.
"We're fine!" Alice said, smiling and pulling into a parking space.
Dekan threw the door open, getting out and taking a deep breath. Jasper followed, chuckling at Dekan.
"Land!" Dekan shouted, laughing.
"Oh, that hurts!" Alice said, pouting.
"Aww, I'm sorry…not!" Dekan said, laughing.
"Oh she got you there." Jasper said, smiling.
Alice laughed as they walked into the hospital. Alice took Jasper's hand in hers, knowing how the smells of the hospital could get to him. Jasper grabbed Dekan's hand as well as they got on the elevator. Alice pushed the button to go up to the fourth floor where Carlisle's office was. The elevator dinged and opened and Dekan followed Alice and Jasper down a hall to Carlisle's office where he was waiting.
"Well I wondered when you would surface." Carlisle said, smiling at Dekan.
"I'm here, I'm here. No worse for the wear." Dekan said, blushing a little.
"If you two will wait in here, I'll give Dekan a quick check up." Carlisle said, leading Dekan into the next room. Alice and Jasper nodded.
"Put this dressing gown on and hop on the table." Carlisle said, turning his back and busying himself with a file he made for Dekan.
Dekan didn't have to do much to undress; just slipping off Embry's boxers and tank top and flip-flops she borrowed from Esme. She slid the gown on and sat on the examining table.
"Okay." Dekan said, a bit nervous.
"Don't worry, just relax. I want to check and see how your wounds are doing and make sure Jerry didn't do anything else to you." Carlisle said, sliding the dressing gown down, looking at her back first. "Well your back is healing nicely. Does it hurt at all?"
"Nah, not too bad." Dekan said, biting her lip.
"Lay back so I can check your abdomen." Carlisle said, helping her lay down. He pulled the gown up, pressing in on her stomach. "Does this hurt at all?"
"It's sore but I'll live." Dekan said.
"Now I know what Jerry injected you with. I have to ask, did Embry use a condom?" Carlisle asked, putting her dressing gown back in place.
"He didn't have to." Dekan said, looking up at Carlisle.
"Are you on any form of birth control?" Carlisle asked.
"Yeah. I got an I.U.D. when I was 13…when Jerry started…yeah…" Dekan muttered, looking away.
"The five-year?" Carlisle asked.
"Yes." Dekan said.
"And you got it when you were 13?" Carlisle asked.
"Yeah." Dekan replied.
"And how old are you now?" Carlisle asked.
"17. I've got a few more months left before I get a new I.U.D." Dekan said.
"Ah, yes. Okay, well I'd like to run a few blood tests, just to be safe he didn't inject you with anything else." Carlisle said.
"Okay. Just…make it quick. The last time I had blood taken, the nurse should have been kicked for the way she wielded a needle." Dekan said, sitting up.
"Ouch. Do you want me to do it?" Carlisle asked, turning his back to Dekan could get redressed.
"Would that…make you…um…" Dekan asked.
"I'm fine with blood." Carlisle said quickly.
"You'd have to be to work here…yeah, if you don't mind." Dekan said.
Carlisle grabbed a couple of empty vials and a needle, taking her blood quickly and painlessly.
"Wow. You're my favorite person, now. I didn't really even feel that." Dekan said, looking over and seeing the vials full of blood.
"Thanks. You can go back with Alice and Jasper if you wish. If Alice doesn't drag you to Seattle to buy you a new wardrobe first." Carlisle said, chuckling.
"That's what I'm scared of." Dekan teased, walking back out and seeing Alice and Jasper.
"Let's hit the road!" Alice said, getting her keys.
"My sympathy, Dekan." Carlisle said, seeing that Alice was driving.
"Is this pick on Alice day?" Alice said, smirking.
"Yes." Jasper, Carlisle, and Dekan replied at the same time.

Sam dropped Embry off at his house before going to his house. Embry waved, walking inside. His mom, Sadie, was in the kitchen cleaning.
"Mom! I'm home." Embry said, seeing his mom in the kitchen.
"Where have you been?!" Sadie asked, throwing down her dish towel.
"Jake told you. I was at the Cullens' house." Embry said.
"For two days? What could you possibly have been doing that took not only two days, but you couldn't pick a phone up and call me?" Sadie asked.
"Sam's cousin was kidnapped." Embry said, crossing his arms.
"That took two days?" Sadie asked.
"No, that took a few hours." Embry replied.
"Well?" Sadie asked.
"She was injected with an aphrodisiac." Embry said.
"And that has what to do with you?" Sadie asked.
"I imprinted on her. I couldn't let her suffer the effects of that by herself. I was with her for those two days." Embry said, not ashamed.
"You were having sex?! You…you…you're only 17! Please tell me you were safe!" Sadie yelled, walking up to Embry.
"No. We didn't. That wasn't exactly on my mind when she looked at me, in pain from what that drug was doing to her." Embry said.
"EMBRY PHOENIX CALL!" Sadie shouted.
"What? I'm not going to apologize. Dekan is my Imprint. I love her." Embry said, heading for his bedroom.
"You could have gotten her pregnant! You'd be throwing your life away on some girl who you think is going to be with you forever! I have heard about that girl! She's not right for you, Embry. She's not like us. Do you know what her life was like before coming here?" Sadie asked, following him.
"Yes, and she had no control over that. I love her, mom. She's my Imprint." Embry said, not seeing why his mother couldn't realize that Dekan being his Imprint should explain everything.
"Do you know that you school called? You're failing, Embry! You've missed too much school! I don't recall giving you permission to miss school. If you don't get a tutor and catch up, then you're going to fail!" Sadie argued.
"Fine, I'll get a tutor." Embry said, getting irritated.
"You're damn right you will. Jaime Fields is coming over here this evening to start your tutoring. She's a nice girl, you should date her instead." Sadie said.
"Oh yes, ignore the fact that not only do I love Dekan but have Imprinted on her and don't want Jaime Fields." Embry said.
"You will not see that girl again so just get that thought out of your head. If you think you're going to sneak around this, I will move us back to the Makah reservation." Sadie said. "Get ready, Jaime will be over here soon." Sadie walked out of the room.
Embry didn't know whether he wanted to curse or cry more. His mom couldn't keep him from Dekan, could she? It didn't seem like it should be possible. Dekan was his life. She had finally got over her fear of dating and being with him, even If it was that drug that did it. She admitted she loved him, that she loved being with him. His mom couldn't do this!
Right?
……
..
Alice and Jasper dropped Dekan off at the La Push border. A few minutes of hugging and Dekan was walking to Sam's house. Her mom was waiting for her on the porch. Lola ran down the dirt road, meeting Dekan and pulling her into a big hug.
"Oh my baby!" Lola repeated, holding Dekan tightly.
"I'm okay, Mom. Dr. Cullen said I'm fine." Dekan whispered.
"I know baby I just…that bastard!" Lola said, pulling back.
"Don't worry, Mom. He won't hurt me anymore." Dekan whispered, smiling.
"I'm so glad you're okay. Your Aunt Noni told me about…things. Were you safe?" Lola asked.
"I've had an I.U.D. since I was 13, so chances are I'm good to go." Dekan replied.
"Thank God, baby. Come on inside, I've missed you so much!" Lola said, pulling Dekan inside.
"I missed you too, Mom." Dekan said, walking inside.
……

Embry was sitting across the table from Jaime Fields, going over stupid homework. Emphasis on stupid. He had better things to be doing than this. He should be with Dekan, not sitting here with Jaime, who was making goo-goo eyes at him. He wanted to shake some sense into his mother for giving Jaime the idea that he liked her like that. A knock came a couple of hours later.
"I'll get it. I'll tell Jake that you'll be out later." Sadie said, getting up to answer the door. Instead of Jake standing there, it was Dekan. Sadie narrowed her eyes and stepped out onto the porch.
"Hi…is Embry free?" Dekan asked, smiling. "Oh I'm sorry! My manners! Hello, I'm Dekan."
"I'm Embry's mother. And no, Embry said he cannot be disturbed. He's busy with Jaime." Sadie said.
"Oh. Who's Jaime?" Dekan asked.
"One of Embry's little girlfriends." Sadie said, chuckling.
"Oh, right. Of course. Well, can you tell him I stopped by?" Dekan asked.
"Sure." Sadie said, walking back inside.
Dekan walked down the steps. Embry had girlfriends? As in more than one? More than her? He said he loved her…his mom has to be mistaken. Dekan started walking along the dirt road, lost in thought. Jake was working on his motorcycle and saw Dekan walking with her head down, biting her lip. He decided to catch up to her.
"Hey. What's up?" Jake said, looking down at her.
"Girlfriends." Dekan muttered.
"What? Girlfriends?" Jake asked.
"More than one." Dekan said, shaking her head.
"Who?" Jake asked, a bit worried.
"Who else." Dekan said, looking up at Jake.
A tear slid down her cheek.
