Storks and Wolves
Chapter 15
fusedtwilight: As usual thanks to the readers and my beta Animegirlkiki. And now the confrontation.
Leah P.O.V
I was serious when I said I would visit the next day.
I know I owe him nothing, no less then nothing. But I’m sick and tired of being depressed about him. I am going to be a mother soon. I need to be strong, not weak.
There are things that must be said and done. The past is dead, but the future is growing and flourishing.
Embry was driving me over to Sam and Emily’s. Seth rode with us. Jake and Quil would meet us there. Why? A little net of support, a little bit to make sure I don’t phase and rip his fucking throat out. It sounds like a good in theory, but we all (And by we all I mean everyone but me) didn’t think physical violence was a good idea.
I don’t know what is going to happen. A lot I suppose. Some screaming, some crying, some screaming again. I blame it on the hormones.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam P.O.V
I was a nervous wreck.
Leah was coming over. Leah was coming over; Emily had gone over to her place and talked her into coming. When she told me I was thrilled, and yet terrified. What was I going to say? What was I going to do?
"Sam calm down. You’re making me nervous," Jake said.
Jake and Quil sat at the table. Emily was at the sink doing some dishes. She had done some tiding up; it was so clean you could eat food off the floor. She was just as nervous as I was.
Jared and Paul were here too. They are my best friends, which was weird because before we had phased we hardly knew of each other. But when we first phased they became my most trusted of comrades.
I was in the middle of walking back and forth. I was lost in my thoughts when Jake stopped me.
"Sorry." I said. "I’m just so nervous. What am I going to say?" I asked.
"Sorry I was such a douchbag sounds like a good start," Quil said.
"Language!" Emily said slapping him upside the head.
There was a knocking sound at the door, she was here.
"I’ll get it." Jake said getting up to answer the door.
I never thought my life would be this complicated. It seems like fate has a sense of humor. First I had a perfect relationship with Leah. Then I phased and I had to go from being a carefree and loving guy to a reserved and controlled guy. I had to be, I didn’t want to hurt Leah. Then I met Emily and I found a love and happiness I never had with Leah. As much as it hurts it is true. The love I have for Em transcends anything I ever had for Leah.
Then she phased and I thought I could finally ease her pain by telling her the truth. And maybe she could move on. But her seeing how much I loved her cousin more then her, and that it was me that scared her made her mare angry and bitter.
Then she left me for Jake. Joining his pack to help the Cullen’s which I never thought possible. But I small part of me was happy for her, to finally be able to take control back over her life. But fate seems to have other plans. It seems no matter how many times we try to escape each other, we always find ourselves back in one another’s lives.

Leah P.O.V
We pulled up to there house. Embry turned off the car and we just sat there. Nobody said anything, nobody wanted to be there, me especially. We just sat there in silence, the boys patiently waiting for me to say or do something.
The boys may have had patience, but the baby didn’t. He or she kicked me right then. I began to rub my belly and Embry leaned a hand over and placed it on it. The baby kicked again.
"I felt it." He smiled
.
"It’s restless," I said.
"Because you are," He said.
"Can you blame me?"
"No, but just think of it like a Band-Aid. Quick and painless." He said.
"You think that works when the band-Aid is on the heart?" I asked.
He had a point, no reason to delay this. Quick and painless. Just like a band-Aid.
I opened my door and stepped out. The boys followed suit, we walked up to the front door and knocked. Jake was the one who answered. He let us in and we silently walked in. God you could find more cheer at a funeral then with us.
We walked into the kitchen and I saw Paul and Jared where here as well. Sam was pacing but stopped when he saw me. Emily came up and hugged me and whispered in my ear "Thank you."
I nodded to her and hugged her back a little. Sam came up to me looking nervous and uncertain. "Hello Sam," I said greeting him.
"Hey Lee." He said.
"Listen could you all leave us alone for a moment?" I asked everybody. “Sam and I need some time to talk."
"Alright, come on guys. Let’s give them there minute," Emily said ushering everyone out.
Jake and Quil wished me luck. Seth squeezed my shoulder. Embry how ever gave me a tight hug and kissed me on the lips. As he walked out he passed Sam. He glanced at him in time to see the shock and a little anger on his face. And he grinned at him before he left. Since when has Embry been so confrontational?
Soon it was just me and him, and with the sound of the front door closing we were all alone. So what happens next? I’ll let Sam lead this one, but he better not get to confident. It’s my tune.
He was looking at me in a way I haven’t seen him in so long. Awkward. I haven’t seen him like that since we were so young. Ever since he became a wolf he was always so confident. But now that was all stripped away. That bitter part of me that had grown over the years felt a flush of satisfaction at seeing him stripped of his once grand armor. But there would be time to gloat later.
He started to walk toward me his face gentle and pleading.
"Leah I know I have messed up so bad but first let me say I’m so, so, sorr-" he never got to finish his sentence.
Once he was close enough my fist flew. WAM! My fist struck his cheek. And he slammed onto the floor with a mighty thud. He pulled himself off the floor to stare at me in shock. The right side of his face was already swollen.
"That was for breaking my heart," I said.
"Lee Lee please…" He began. But I struck again.
"That is for calling me a bitter bitch!" I said punching the other side of his face.
He fell down on the floor. He didn’t get up at first, but then he moaned and sat up, his face ruined in a swollen blotchy way. I forgot to mention, one of the benefits of this baby was it seemed to make me a little stronger. That with my temper which was already bad to begin with made me a feared creature for the boys. I think Jake still had bruises from when I threw a fridge at him for making a comment about me gaining weight. Did he not know a pregnant woman and her weight are a very sensitive thing?
Sam got up, his face was already healing.
"Leah please let’s be reasonable," He said.
"And this," I said grabbing his shoulders, and then brining my knee up to hit him in every man’s weak spot, his crotch. "Is for getting me pregnant you cock sucker!" I snarled at him.
He went down like a sack of bricks, holding himself in pain. "It took…two..too tango…Leah," He wheezed.
I kicked him in the ribs. Yeah that’s right I kicked him when he was down. And I sent him flying, and broke a rib or two.
"Enough!" He hollered at me.
"No," I said walking forward.
"Leah don’t make me-"
"Don’t make you do what? Hurt me? Destroy me? Tear me down?" Too late Sam. I have some things I have wanted to say to you for a while now. But first pleasure," I said cracking my knuckles "Then business."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Emily P.O.V
I may not have wolf hearing, but even I could here the sounds of pain and flesh hitting flesh.
We all sat out side waiting for it to end.
"How long do you think this will be?" Quil asked.
"Seeing how this is Leah with a very short temper, with raging hormones…" Jake said.
"With the one guy who has hurt her more times then any of us can count," Seth said.
"Who is pregnant with his child," Jared said.
"Who is on a constant angst trip," Paul said.
"Who has a chance to kick some ass," Embry said.
"And can finally vent all her anger," I said.
No one said anything. Luckily we all came prepared. I pulled out a book I snatched on my way out. Paul pulled out a deck of cards and he, Jared and Quil began to play. Jake pulled out his cell phone and began to text someone. And Embry and Seth began to talk about whom would win in a fight: A pirate or a ninja.
All the while we ignored the signs of pain coming from the house. There was a crash and the sound of something breaking. I hope it wasn’t expensive.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam P.O.V
Leah’s fist hit me in the face, breaking my nose and a few teeth.
I was amazed by her new found strength. I figured it had something to do with the pregnancy making her stronger. I wasn’t too worried by the injuries; they would be healed in a few minutes. But Leah showed no signs she was going to stop any time soon, and I couldn’t defend myself without getting rough with her. But do to her condition I couldn’t risk it.
Finally she stopped. She backed away, her fists clenched tightly, and covered in blood. Her eyes were closed and she was shaking. Judging from her belly she was about in her third trimester. I remembered Jake saying while the baby was just a mass of cells her body treated it like it was a part of her. But when does a body decide a baby is its own organism? Would the baby be okay if she phased now? Or would the baby be harmed?
"Leah, calm down," I said. My voice was muffled because my nose was still healing. My face hurt like hell. And judging from the blood on her hands my face must be pretty messed up right now.
"Don’t tell me what to do!" She snapped.
"Think of the baby." I said gently hoping to calm her. But Leah had never been one for comfort.
"Don’t tell me to worry about my kid!" She shouted. She took a few deep calming breaths. In and out, in and out, soon the shaking sopped and she visibly relaxed.
I was surprised. She had come a long way from her early days, when to look at her the wrong way would send her into a rage.
"Leah, are you okay?" I asked sounding better.
"Hell no I’m not okay!" She said. She pulled back and I knew what she was going to do before it happened.
I fell on my back, my face stinging. But I had, had enough! I shot back up and glared at her. "That’s enough Leah!" I said angrily.
"No." She said.
She went to hit me again but I caught her fist. "Leah stop or-
"Or what," She said wrenching her hand out of my grip. "You going to hit me?" She asked getting up in my face. "You going to hit you’re pregnant Ex-girlfriend?"
"Of course not." I said taking a step back.
"Of course not. You don’t like to use force; you like to use words huh?" She asked sneering at me.
Her words stung because they were true. I lowered my head in shame.
"Oh no you don’t" She said grabbing my chin and forcing me to look at her. "You don’t get to feel sorry here! You don’t get to mope around; you don’t get to feel hurt. You’re not the victim, I am." She said.
"You’re not a victim Lee," I said.
"Oh no? Then what the fuck is this?" She said backing up and lifting her shirt enough for me to see her very obvious baby bump. I felt my eyes soften. But what ever she wanted to see that wasn’t it.
"Stop that." She lowered her shirt.
"Stop what?"
“That look on your face. The pity and self-guilt in you’re eyes Sam; I’m sick and tired of seeing them."
"What else am I supposed to feel Leah? I’m sorry for what I did to you, for hurting you." I said.
"Which time?" She asked raising her eyebrow.
"What was I supposed to think Lee? What was I supposed to do?" I asked starting to get a little angry.
"You were supposed to trust me; you were supposed to give me the benefit of doubt. You owed me that much."
"Why do you care so much what I think Leah? I left you remember, why are you still so obsessed with my opinion of you?"
"Because you stupid heartless bastard I loved you!" She shouted tears streaming down her face. "So what I didn’t imprint on you, I still loved you. So what it wasn’t some fucking fairy tale thing, I still loved you. You were my everything; I never loved anyone as much as I loved you, not even my own family." She said angrily wiping away her tears. "I tried so hard to hate you, and it worked mostly, but no matter how much I tried to hate you I couldn’t stop loving you. You saw into my head Sam, how can you say that and not understand?"
I said nothing for a while. Then I finally looked up to face her.
"I know you loved me Leah, and on some level I still love you too. But I love Emily more Leah, she makes me feel more complete and right then we ever did."
"Don’t rub it in. She said bitterly.
"I tried to stay away from you. Hoping you would forget and move on…" I said.
"Forget and move on? Are you fucking retarded? Just because you left me you think I could just forget and move on from what we had? Tell me something Sam. If you had never met Emily, if you had never imprinted, how easy would it have been for us to be together?" She asked.
"It was already so clear to me. I could see it all you, me, a house, some kids. Believe me Leah I have thought of it before."
She looked a little surprised. Luckily I had been able to block those thoughts from her when we were still one pack.
"I am sorry for just abandoning you Leah. But you were so hurt by me and Emily I thought if I and she just stayed away from you that with a little time it would heal you’re wounds and you could move on. Then you phased and learned the truth, but instead of getting closure you became more angry and bitter then I dared thought. And I in turn found myself unable to move on Lee. You see all those times you brought up the memories of us I found myself feeling a sense of nostalgia. I tried again to keep away from you, but you didn’t make it easy what with all the trouble you caused." I grinned.
"Believe I tried to make you’re life a living hell." She said.
"And you did pretty well," I smiled. "I tried so hard to ignore you, to treat you like any of the other guys. But you were still my Lee Lee and nothing could change that. Then you left and went over to Jake’s pack and everything changed." I said taking a deep breath "A small part of me was happy for you, but a larger part was angry that you left, that I wouldn’t be able to protect you, or be a part of you’re life."
We said nothing for a while. We just stood there lost in our own emotions, our own private hells.
"I’m still pissed at you." She said.
"I know. I’m not even going to try and ask for you’re forgiveness any more Lee, I have hurt you too much to even deserve to ask you that," I said.
"Damn right Sam, you said some pretty fucked up things to me that night, so don’t think I’m going to be all ‘all is forgiven’ because it’s not." She said holding her stomach. "But our child needs a father, you’re not much but you’ll have to do."
"Thanks Leah…I think…" I said.
"That being said I’m going to lay down some ground rules," She said. "First if I want to go to the Cullens for my check ups or to just bullshit, I can and will. So don’t even think about trying to tell me where I can or can’t go."
"I don’t like my child being around our enemies Leah." I said frowning.
"I don’t care, and it’s our child not just yours. I’m the one who has to do all the work here. Second I’m going to need you’re help with the wolves, because now that I don’t have to hide in my house I’m sure the rest of you’re pack will get a whiff of me and I’m going to need you’re help getting them to back off. Seth and Embry are bad enough."
"Agreed, but they are only concerned about you Leah. Would you at least spend some time with them? Eric and the ones who smelled you have been very worried about you and it would ease there worries for you." I said.
"I’ll think about it, now go get the others, I need to sit." She said sitting down.
"Are you okay?" I asked moving forward.
"Yes, just a lot of physical strain of whooping you’re ass and, it’s kicking." She said.
"It’s kicking?" I asked excitedly "Can I feel?"
"Knock yourself out." She said.
I gently placed my hand on her belly, nothing happened for a second then I felt it move, I felt something press against her flesh. I lowered my head to press against her stomach and I could here something…a heart beat.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leah P.O.V
Well this is going better then I thought. Although I was feeling kind of weirded out by him pressing the side of his face to my gut. "Sam, two words. Personal space." I said.
"Sorry," He said pulling his head back and standing up. He had the decency to blush. "I could here its heartbeat."
"I know, if its quiet enough I can here it too." I said softly.
"I noticed you and Embry have gotten closer." He said.
"Yes, he has been a great help."
"I can’t say this pleases me Leah, what if he imprints?" Sam asked.
"I have taken that into careful consideration. We both had, which is why we have decided to wait until I’m not pregnant any more until we try anything serious." I said.
"We’ll talk more later. I better go let the others know I’m still alive." He said.
He walked out to go let the others in. While he was gone I got thinking. Embry had been very helpful. And so patient too. He was so wonderful I wished there was something I could do to make him happy. I cracked my knuckles and remembered I had Sam’s blood on them. And that’s when it hit me, the way I could help him.
He had been the most adamant I speak to Sam again. I knew he wanted the baby to have a father. He knew what it was like to grow up not having a father. Maybe I could help him now.
Embry’s mom was from the Makah reservation, and only those descended of male La Push members could have the gene. The only options were Joshua Uley Sam’s father who was a worse husband then he was a father. Quil’s father and old Quil’s son Quil who died years ago when Quil was a kid in a car accident. Quil was a popular name in that family I guess. And the final choice was Billy Black, Jake’s dad.
It caused some stress in the pack who the father could be. Which I was more then happy to bring up to piss everyone off. I knew Embry wanted to know badly, but Jake didn’t want to ask his dad if he cheated on his wife because he didn’t believe he could do that. Quil’s dad was dead, and the secret with him. No one had seen Joshua and everyone just hoped it was him.
We couldn’t do tests because of the whole wolf gene thing. But since I know had a vampire doctor I don’t have to worry about secrecy or discretion. And I say discretion because besides Embry, no one wanted to know who his daddy was. Jake and Quil felt sorry for the friend, but they loved their fathers too much to risk it. They believed there fathers were loyal, but there is always that nagging doubt. And Embry being the cool guy he is didn’t press the issue for his friend’s sake.
I on the other hand am a cold heartless bitch who could care less about other people’s opinions. I had to be quick though; they would be back in any second. In fact I could here them moving. I quickly went to the sink. I knew Emily well enough to know that is where she would keep the zip lock bags. I pulled one out and quickly grabbed a paper towel and wiped the blood on it and put it back into the zip lock bag. I had just finished putting it in my pocket when I heard the others come in.
"What are you doing Leah?" Embry asked.
"Oh just getting the blood off my hands," I said.
I smiled at Embry; I walked over to him and kissed him sweetly on the cheek.
"What was that for?" He asked.
"Just for being you." I said.
Embry had done a lot for me. I owed him this; everyone deserves to know who there father is. And I know what it is like to need some closure. I knew there was a risk of some people being hurt, but I had to do this, for Embry.
fusedtwilight: Thats right Leah will be learning Embry's paternity.
