The morning sun slowly began to rise. Neither of us had moved, we both held tight to one another as night slowly faded away and day started to

begin. As the light began to fill the sky, remorse began to wash over me. I felt like the second I let go of him I would fall apart. Like the reality of

the situation would sink in. What had I done to Emmett? What had I done to us? We were about to have everything and I messed it up. I didn't

know what to do. I just needed time to get my head straight.

"You should probably get some rest before tonight, I mean if you are coming." I said barely able to speak.

"You're probably right." he said as he smiled at me.

God, he was so happy still. I felt like such a horrible person. This had to end now. This had to stop. We headed inside finally and Jake headed to

bed. I sat around just trying not to think of what had happened here. Now wasn't the time. I would make sure to put an end to this immediately

though. I would clear my head later. Right now I just needed to focus on what to do about Yara.

If everything worked out and she was really willing to do this for us maybe she could come home with me. I mean, I didn't see why we needed to

wait. The sooner the better, I had after all waited my whole life and unlife already.

I felt like it was best if I distanced myself from Jake for now. I would sneak out a bit early and go by myself. I didn't know if he would figure it out

and head up once he woke up or if he would understand, either way what little time I could get alone would be good for me. I needed to focus on

the future, my future with Emmett and our child. Once it got close to sundown I slowly crept out, making sure not to wake Jake. I was pretty sure

he would be dead to the world for a few more hours at the very least with the way he was sawing logs.

I couldn't help but run, running as fast as my legs would carry me. It had only been one day but in one days time everything was already

completely different. I was running towards my future, when I left here it would be as a mother. I just knew it was all coming together.

Yara was waiting outside for me. I guess she was anxious too. She greeted me with the most beautiful smile.

"I am so glad you are back" she said to me.

"I am so glad you are glad" I said laughing.

"Would you like to walk while we talk? I can show you our village, how we live and such?" she asked me.

I of course agreed. It was plain to see why she would jump at the chance of getting away from here. I mean you I could tell how much she loved

her family and her home and knew she would never leave them permanently. But this girl wanted to see more, I could tell. The more she asked me

about my life and places I had been and things I have seen it gave me an idea. I started to tell her all about Emmett and what he did for work and

that was that. I saw her face light up and I knew my plan would work.

"So Yara, I have an idea that I think you may like. If you decide to do this with us. I can see how much you have always wanted to travel and I see

how you want to explore and I have the perfect solution for this. Whenever you are ready to do this and please know, I am not rushing you..... I

can bring you home with me to Forks. We can get you set up at our place and start taking care of the medical stuff. Once we get everything in

order and we know that both you and the baby are in good shape, maybe you would be interested in joining Emmett out on one of his shoot? I

am unsure of where he will be at the time, but I am sure it would be fun. Or if it isn't somewhere you wanted to go perhaps you and I could just

take a little trip somewhere together? I want you to keep in mind that we will take care of everything for you. Anything you need, not just for

yourself but your family all you have to do is ask. If you would prefer to bring someone along, we could do that as well. What are you thinking right

now, I mean about all that?" I asked. I knew I had laid a lot out there for her. I am sure she would need some time to digest it all. I looked over at

her to try to get a read on her reaction. Her eyes were wide, I guess I did overwhelm her. She walked over to me and wrapped her long arms

around me as her eyes started to water. I guess I had misread her reaction. If I could still cry, I think now would be the moment for it.

"You have no idea how amazing this all is" she said to me.

"Yara, this is nothing at all. Nothing. What you are doing for us, is far more than anything I can ever give you. The gift of life, of motherhood is the greatest gift in this world. For that, I will never be able to repay you." I said starting to loose my voice

"Yes. I want to come home with you." she said smiling

It was my turn for hugs. I couldn't have been happier. This woman, whom I had only known for two days was giving me the world. And here it was

that she thought she was the lucky one. We hung out for a few hours just talking getting to know one another a little better. We would have

plenty of time to get fully acquainted now though. It was settled, she would be flying home with me in a week. That gave her some time to spend

with her family beforehand and get packed. It also gave me some time to work out a story, get in touch with the family and make all the

arrangements necessary.

I made sure to let her know she could pack light, as I knew Alice would just love having someone new to dress up. She probably already had a

closet of maternity clothing "just in case". We said good night and I started to head back. We made plans to meet up again the day before we left,

for her goodbye party. I started to make my way back to the house knowing Jake would probably be awake and wondering why I went alone. This

Jake situation needed to be dealt with soon. Yara and I would be heading home in a week and we couldn't afford to have anything alter the plan.

I guess he had been waiting for me.....

"You left your phone" he said glumly... "I tried to call you, I thought we were going together"

" I know, I'm sorry Jake. I just kind of thought I should do this alone." I said trying to keep it light.

"Oh."

"You hungry? Want me to whip something up?" I asked trying to brighten the mood.

"Actually yeah, I'm starving." he said giving me a reluctant grin. That always did the trick.
