A/N: Sorry it's been forever for me to update. Lost my log in to my account and moved out of state so it's been a pain in the butt. I'm back now though and I promise to get a few chapters out this week so please be nice.

Bella's POV

There is nothing worse than waking up hot and sweating but for some reason that is exactly how I was waking up. This was strange for me though, my room was never hot. I had the window open and a ceiling fan going throughout the night so to say I was confused was an understatement. That was until I had an arm wrap around my middle.

Now I was no longer confused but freaking out. However it didn't last too long because I had a sudden sharp pain in my hand that very forcibly brought me back to what happened. Talked to Jake. Jake kissed me. Broke hand on Jake's face. That's right, now it's all coming back. Except for jumping in bed with some guy. That is something I would definitely remember and I for sure didn't.

I knew that Embry had taken me to the hospital and then someone took me to Jake's room to lay down then in my dreams Embry was attacked by wolves. It wasn't a normal dream though. I could interact with everyone and it just all seemed so real. The look on anguish on Embry's face and the feral faces on the wolves were just so terrifying that I couldn't help but scream out for him. He was going to die, I was sure of it.

With some logically conclusions now underhand I could only assume that it was Jake with me. I mean I was in his room and up until he decided to ignore me for days on end he was my best friend. Now that I was more comfortable with it I decided to turn over and ask him to back up some and give me a little room to breathe.

Upon rolling over was the biggest mistake I could have made. I was right about the room but oh so wrong about the cuddle buddy. It was Embry. He was the one with his arms curled around me. Instinct took in and I tried to push away the opposite direction from him but evidently Em didn't like that too much because he growled a little and pulled me back over to him where my body was flush against his. Now I was getting hot for a whole other reason. You obviously had to be blind not to see an attraction to Embry. He was literally tall, dark and handsome. Covered head to toe in muscles and right now I had a perfect view of those muscles since he was laying in bed with me and had no shirt on.

The pain in my hand though was not going away anytime soon and I had no clue if I had any pain medicine or whatever.

"Hey Em." I whispered to him and kind of shook his shoulder. No response. So I got a little louder. "Embry I need my medicine." He started to wake up at that point because he was rolling over a bit then brought his face down to mine and did one of the most shocking things I could expect. He kissed me on the lips. "Sure baby, I'll get them in a second."

At that point I think he woke up fully because he shot straight up in bed and had a look of utter embarrassment all over his face. I had never seen anyone's face match the color of my own when embarrassed but somehow Embry had managed. "Oh God Bells…I'm so…oh God…it didn't mean…". He really had no idea how to finish that statement and to be honest I wasn't sure if I wanted him to. For some reason, everything that Embry had done was perfect and I loved it. Now was I able to tell him that, no not quite. He then proceded to jump out of bed and in doing so he pushed all the covers I had on top of me off. Then he took in what I was wearing.

Evidently Jake had been the one to put me in bed because I was now wearing one of his old t-shirts. To be completely honest it didn't faze me all that much simply because I had worn his things before. Jake was my best friend after all but it effected Embry so much more.

"Bella what the hell are you wearing?"

"Well I guess it's one of Jake's shirts. He usually lets me wear one when I stayed with him. He must have helped me get it on before I totally passed out last night."

"You mean to tell me Jake helped you undress and then put you in his clothes?"

"Embry are you ok? You're kind of shaking and you just don't look too good. Do you want me to get Jake?"

"I'll take care of Jake on my own." And with that he stormed out of the room slamming the door shut behind him. I couldn't figure out why he was so mad but he must take personal space very seriously. Well that couldn't totally be it because he was just curled up in bed with a girl he hardly knew.

Then I heard the yelling. I could tell Jake's and Embry's voices and just knew that this was going to be bad. I immediately jumped out of bed and ran toward the voices, not really taking into account what I had been wearing. I just knew that I need to be there for this and to hopefully avoid whatever was about to happen.

When I made it over to where the guys were standing I could see Embry push Jake up against the wall of the garage and for some reason all of the guys around them just let it happen. None of them made a single attempt to jump in and stop them from ripping each other apart. Oh no way was this happening now, not while I was here. They were friends and I was going to make them see it if it was the last thing I did.

"Black I fucking told you that she was mine so what the fuck was that? You undress her and put her in one of your fucking shirts. How did you really think my wolf was going to take that?"

"Dude I didn't even think of it like that. It's my Bells. I always help her out."

"She's not your Bells, she's mine and you better get that through your thick ass skull baby alpha."

I didn't have a clue as to what they were talking about but I must have picked a terrible time to intervine.

"Em get off of him. Jake is your friend. He's my friend too and you need to quit it."

Embry took that moment to turn around and take in my wardrobe once again. To say the look on his face was one that was displeased was a bit of an understatement. I suppose the cat calls and whistles coming from the other guys wasn't helping much because that in turn just made Embry start to growl. Seriously, more growling? What was with these Quilite boys?

Leave it to Quil to be the first to open his big mouth. "Damn Bella, where have you been hiding all of that my entire life?"

I in turn blushed like a mad woman and started to look down. I had a worn AC/DC shirt that had fallen off one shoulder and stopped about mid thigh. I had no shoes on and I could only guess what thoughts were going through these guys heads. Scratch that, I really didn't want to know.

"I'd hit it, leech lover or not." was the comment that came from the pissy guy that had to apologize yesterday. Now what did he mean by leech lover? Something to put away for thought later. Right at this second I had to figure a way to get Embry to calm down and to keep him from killing Jake, and maybe myself as well.

I didn't get to think of it too long though because Jake took that moment to step in front of me effectively blocking me from Embry and looked me in the eye.

"As much as I'm loving the show Bells you might want to head back inside. Em's not taking to our choices in your wardrobe very well."

"Well to be honest Jake I don't see how it should even matter to him."

That must have been the wrong thing to say because Embry took that moment to shove Jake out of the way and grab me by the shoulders pulling me up to him.

"Trust me darling, it matters. A lot more than you think but I can promise you this right now. This will be the last time you ever wear a mans clothing that isn't mine."

He then crashed his lips down on mine and even though it would seem like it was exactly like the way Jake had kissed me just yesterday it was completely different. It was forceful but not in a bad way. Just sort of in charge but still extremely soft. It felt like he was trying to tell me something with this kiss but bad news for him I wasn't listening to any messages, I was just enjoying myself. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer to me allowing him to deepen our kiss.

At that time we heard a throat clear and a very distinctive 'get a room' more than likely from Quil and when Embry pulled away and looked into my eyes I could care less about where we were. I just wanted him to kiss me like that again.

"Fine, we will." Was all that Embry had said before he took his plan into action. He picked me up and threw me over his shoulder fireman style. Now what the hell was going on? This was not Embry at all. He was always shy and quite. Not commanding and manly. It was quite sexy actually. No Bella, not sexy. Barbaric and completely uncalled for. Once I finally got my wits about me I spoke up.

"Embry Call put me down right now! I am not some thing you just randomly take ownership of and do with as you please."

"Oh but darling there is where you are wrong. You are mine."

"Em what the hell are you talking about? Put me down. Where are we going?"

"I thought you knew already. We were told to get a room remember so we're going home. To my home. Hopefully our home eventually."

I was in utter shock. Now what do I do? After his last declaration I stopped protesting and putting up any kind of fight. Well good job Bella. How can I fix this now?
