This starts from Embry's point of view:
I sat staring into the darkness. I didn't know how long I sat just staring it's all I could do from going crazy. If I thought too much I'd think about how she was gone leaving this huge hole in my heart. The only thing that made me feel alright was the fact that she was happy being…away from me. It kept me from going insane.
"Embry," I heard a voice say to me.
I looked at Leah who sat next to me with her hand on my arm. I looked back at the wall again.
"Embry you have to stop this," she said.
"What would you know," I asked.
"You've seen my thoughts Embry," she said, "You've seen my memories from Sam after he imprinted."
"At least he didn't have a choice," I said.
"Still hurt horribly," she said.
"I don't want to talk about it," I said, "What are you doing here anyway?"
"Just visiting for the day," she said, "to see my brother and he begged me to see if I could help you."
"I doubt it, thanks though," I said, "You should come n work with us Lee."
"Oh and leave La Push," she said.
"You hate it there," I said.
"I know," she said.
"Your funeral," Is aid looking at her glumly.
"It will work out Embry," she said, "All imprints do."
"Right," I said, "She was afraid of getting her heart broken and that is what happened."
"For something that is not your fault," she said.
"Still happened," I said, "She'll never trust me again."
"She will," Leah said.
"When did you get so nice?" I asked.
"I grew up," she said.
"Thanks Leah," I said sighing looking at the wall again.
"I'll leave you to sit in your own filth," she said.
Then I was alone again in the darkness.
Going to Sam's point of view:
I sat with my feet folded under me while I had a book on my lap but I wasn't reading it. I could only focus on the tree outside. I missed Embry terribly and I wanted nothing more to go back home to him. I didn't allow myself to go back though since I knew it would bring more heart ache. It had only been a week and I didn't know how long I would last though either.
"Sam," I heard a voice settle down next to me on my window seat.
"Jeremy what are you doing here," I asked giving him a hug.
"Because I miss my sister," he said.
"I've missed you too," I said reaching out to hold his hand.
"You need to come back," he said.
"What," I asked.
"You need to come back home," he said.
"I can't," I told him, "and how can you say something like that."
"Because you need him," he said, "mom called me and told me how miserable you are."
"I just can't go back to him," I said, "not after what I saw him do."
"He needs you too," he said.
"He needs Brittany," I argued, "that much is obvious."
"You don't know what he's been like since you left," he said.
"I'm sure the two love birds have been joined at the hip," I said rolling my eyes, "There isn't anything you could say to change my mind."
"I saw him yesterday," he said, "He has been keeping himself in his room this whole time, refused to come out or eat. He doesn't show up to work and nothing we say can change his mind."
"I'm sure he'll move on," I said whispering.
"Maybe," he said shaking his head.
"Don't you understand," I asked, "I can't go back."
"Why?" Jeremy said.
"Because I can't stand it if my heart gets hurt again," I said.
"If you don't go what's the point Sam," he asked, "You'll just sit here hurting anyway, afraid and alone."
"That's not true," I said.
"He needs you," Jeremy said looking at me.
"That can't be true," I said.
"It is," he said.
"No," I said shaking my head.
"You need him," Jeremy said, "I'm tired of you hurting here without him."
"I can't," I said my eyes filling up with tears.
"Yes you can," Jeremy said hugging me, "You deserve it. After everything happened last week I thought you didn't deserve him but I've seen how he is without you. He can't even function and if he really wanted Brittany he would have never acted like anything happened and he would be with her. He wouldn't lock himself in his house and not talk to anyone."
I cried harder then when I heard those words cleaning to Jeremy's shirt.
"Are you sure," I asked looking at him after I finished crying.
"Yes," he said, "or I would make sure you'd never come back to see him again."
"I just don't know what to say to him," I said, "I've made such a fool of myself."
"I have no idea how to help you with that," Jeremy said shrugging his shoulders, "I feel like I've had enough of the girly talk to last me the rest of my life."
I rolled my eyes at him.
"So you will come home then?" he asked.
"Yes," I said sighing, "I just need to pack my stuff."
"Good because I hate cooking for myself," he said.
"I hate you cooking for me too," I teased him.
"Funny sis," he said.
"Are you sure about this?" I asked growing serious again.
"I am," he said, "or like I said I wouldn't be here."
After loading my car and saying goodbye to my parents I got into my truck and followed Jeremy. The whole time I became more and more nervous. Once we got into town Jeremy drove to his house while I went onto Embry's. When I got there I sat nervously debating if I should get out of my truck or not. I wanted to so bad but I was scared of what would happen and what I would say. I finally unclipped my seat belt and opened my car door.
With my heart beating out of my chest I slowly walked up to the door. When I knocked no one opened the door I slowly opened it myself.
"Embry," I called looking around the dark house.
I walked through the house finding it empty. I started to leave when I decided to check his bedroom, a place that made me nervous to look for some reason. The door was closed so I opened it slowly to find the room dark like the rest of the house. When my eyes adjusted I found him sleeping on his bed. My heart jumped out of my chest.
He looked so small when sleeping. I walked slowly to him taking in his form. I then realized how much I missed him and that I could never leave again. My fingers ghosted his muscular arm before starting to turn towards the door to leave him sleeping when I saw his eyes flutter open. I froze scared to move away from him. He looked at me before sitting up, grabbing my wrist, and pulling me down on his lap. We stared at each other for a long moment while his arm wrapped around my waist and his hand ran through my hair.
"I'm dreaming aren't I," he whispered.
"No," I said.
He pulled back away from me slightly to look at my face.
"There is no way you'd be back," he said.
"I am Embry," I said, "Jeremy told me what happened."
"You're real," he asked.
"Yes," I whispered afraid of how'd act.
He then pulled me into his arms nearly crushing me and I held just as tightly back. I felt the tears fall down my face. It was strange I should be reacting like this. I felt as though something click in place, like something that felt off since I left. I could feel him shaking under my hands and when I pulled back I saw his own silent tears fall down his own face. My fingers brushed his tears away taking in every detail.
He then started to lean in and I froze. His lips brushed mine and I felt a million things at once. He kissed me gently for a moment before pulling away too soon. I blinked at him before launching myself at him and kissing him fiercely. He started kissing me fiercely back our tongues meeting. We pulled back when air became needed. I closed my eyes and rested my forehead against his.
"We should have done that a long time ago," I whispered.
"We should have," he agreed wrapping his arms around me pulling me closer and I rested my head onto his broad shoulder.
"I missed you," I whispered.
"You aren't mad at me," he asked.
"I was," I said, "but Jeremy came and talked to me. I should have found out what really happened before I left but I was just so angry. I know I can trust you and that I'm sure that shank Brittany was trying to split us up."
"She was," Embry said chuckling at my word choice.
I couldn't but run my hand over his sculpted chest and he shuttered at the contact.
"I missed you too Sam," he said and I looked at his face.
I kissed him gently before pulling away.
"I won't leave again," I whispered.
He kissed me slow and sweet again leaving me light headed. I rested my head on his shoulder and sighed.
"I love you Sam," I heard him whisper in my ear.
"I love you too," I said kissing the side of his neck.
"Will you stay here with me tonight," he asked softly.
I looked up at him afraid that he expected more from me than I was willing to give.
"Just sleeping I promise," he said, "I've spent enough time away from you that I can't stand to be away from you again."
"Sure," I said, "I should get my bag from my truck if I'm staying then I need to get my things for overnight."
"I'll go get those bags for you Hun," he said.
"Ok," I whispered.
"Are you going to move so I can go get the bags," he asked and I shook my head, "Why not?"
"Because I like sitting here with you," I said blushing like crazy.
"I can live with that," he said kissing me again.
After ten minutes of kissing I pried myself away from Embry to start dinner while he grabbed my bags and then took a shower. When I was nearly done with dinner I felt Embry rap his arms around me and he started kissing my neck and I melted in his arms. I turned and kissed his lips.
"I love you," I said.
"I love you too," he whispered.
I kissed him again and our kissed grew deeper before he pulled away.
"I'm glad I imprinted," he said.
"Glad you what," I asked feeling confused.
Let me know what you think.
