Storks and Wolves
Chapter 26

Fusedtwilight: Thanks for all the awesome reviews. Saw Harry potter, it was better then I thought. I love the girl who plays Bellatrix, she is awesome! And now on with the story.

Leah P.O.V

It had been two months now since the baby shower.

I was now six months pregnant and was I showing it. I felt like I was carrying a bowling ball in my gut.

Embry has yet to give me the bracelet. He doesn’t know I know that he plans on giving me the damn thing.

I hated the whole damn situation. First I’m hormonal ass hell in more then one way. I’ve come close to phasing dozens of times, and the guys are suffering because since they are usually the closest things to me, they get the honor of being the ones I vent my anger on.

Second I was not only angry, I was horny as well. I swear every time Embry walked into a room I wanted to jump his bones. But let’s face it who would want to have sex with a girl the size of a whale….sorry hormones.

As much as I wanted to be with Embry I made sure we were never alone. I was always with one of the guys, hell I was even willing to stay at the Cullen’s as long as it kept me from being alone with Embry.

I don’t know why, but I was scared that if I wasn’t careful Embry would jump out from behind a door and shout ‘Marry me.’

I should just talk to him about it. But how do you tell a guy who is in love with you that you don’t want to marry him. I mean I love him I’m just not sure I want to settle down.

I can’t believe it. I can fight vampires I can defy my friends and family to protect some mutant brat, but I can’t even tell the man I love I’m not ready for marriage. God I need some pickles.

Luckily I had other things to preoccupy my thoughts. Today we were meeting with the Makahs.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Embry P.O.V

Leah was driving me crazy.

For the past couple of months now she has been avoiding me. Well that’s not true, we have been together. But we have not been alone in a while.

Leah always seems to wants to not be alone with me. She always makes sure someone is with us. And it was driving me crazy, all I wanted was to spend some quality time with her and I can’t get that.

I haven’t told her about the bracelet. It was a good thing I told Jake about it, I couldn’t imagine what possessed me to just up and propose like that. I could only imagine what Leah’s reaction would have been. She would probably freak out.

I mean worse then she is right now. It’s like she’s scared I’m going to jump out from behind a door and shout ‘Boo’ or something.

In any case I have other things to worry about. Today we are meeting with the Makahs, and that’s sure to be just a fun little meeting.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Why in the hell are we here?” Leah asked again.

We were in a baby store in Port Angels. I and Seth had taken her there to get some baby supplies.

“Because you are having a baby.” Seth said.

“No shit Sherlock, I mean why are we here now? I haven’t had her yet.”

“Because it’s better to do it now then wait till later,” I said.

She sighed and crossed her arms grumpily. “Oh come on Leah, what’s wrong?” Seth asked.

“I hate being here, it’s like everyone is staring at me.” She said.

“No one is staring at you.” I said rubbing her shoulders.

“I just don’t see why we have to do it. Why don’t we just let Alice do it? You know she wants to.”

“Do you really want Alice Cullen to pick your daughters cloths and crib?” I asked with a smile.

She thought about it for a second. “Never mind. Alright let’s get this over with,”

It was fun being there with her…and by extension Seth who I thought was going to explode with excitement.

“Hey Leah look at this.” Seth said holding up a pair of pink baby pajamas.

“No,” Leah said.

“Why not?” Seth asked a little crestfallen.

“It’s pink.”

“Yeah because it’s a girl Leah.” Seth said rolling his eyes.

“No daughter of mine is gong to wear pink.” She said stubbornly.

We picked out a baby crib after that. And some more baby clothes. After the baby shower Leah had there wasn’t many clothes needed for her or the baby.

So after we got the cloths (None of them pink) and the crib we carried all the stuff out to the car. I carried the cloths and Seth carried the crib. He couldn’t wait to put it together when we got home.

Home, with Leah. I like the sound of that. Jake was right, it was too soon. Maybe after the baby was born and this thing with the Makahs was taken care of maybe then I would ask her. I could wait until then. I had all the time in the world.

It’s weird I know. We have been together for about four months now. That hardly seems long enough for a commitment. But I love her. What other reason should I need to marry her?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Leah P.O.V

We arrived at my place and found Sam was there with some of his wolves, Jake and Quil.

I wondered what he wanted.

We got out and the guys refused to let me carry even a bag. Which annoyed me a little. I mean I can carry one bag of cloth’s guys; I’m not made of glass.

“Hi Leah,” Sam said coming to help carry some things. “What’s all this?”

“Seth and Embry decided to take me to get some baby things.” I said.

He looked surprised. Then a little hurt. I mentally smacked myself on the head. Sam probably had wanted to come and help pick some baby things as well. I mean it was his kid too.

“Sorry, I didn’t think to call you and ask you if you wanted to come.” I apologized.

“No, its okay.” He said.

“No it’s not,” I said firmly. “It’s your daughter too; I need to start acting like it. You had as much right to be there as Embry or Seth.”

I saw his eye narrow on Embry. He glared at him and I snapped my fingers to get his attention. “He is your brother Sam, he is her uncle, and he is my boy friend, he has every right.”

“I didn’t say he didn’t.” He said.

“No, but I saw the look on your face.” I said.

“I’m still not used to this,” He sighed.

“What? Being a dad? Or being a brother?” I asked.

“Both, look you should know both pack will be there at the meeting. Even the new guys.”

“All of them?” I asked. “Why?”

“Last time they used there greater numbers to intimidate Quil and the others into silence. But now including your pack there is a total of thirty wolves in La Push Leah.”

“So your going to intimidate the Makahs with overwhelming numbers?” I asked.

“No, the majority of the pack I will have keep hidden in case the Makahs try to pull something,” He said. “Look Leah I’m not sure you should go.”

“I have to Sam. Old Quil said the Makah’s value females greatly. They won’t dare start a fight with me there. Besides as long as we keep our cool we won’t have to fight…maybe you should have Paul stay.”

“Yeah like I could do that to Paul. Besides we will need all the support we can get. Jake is hoping your scent will help keep the warriors on a short leash.”

“I hadn’t thought of that,” I said.

We had no idea how many wolves the Makah had. Hopefully I wouldn’t have to worry about another pack trying to be my baby nannies.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sam P.O.V

I would be lying if I said I wasn’t jealous of Embry.

It seemed like all the baby things I should be doing with Leah she was doing with him.

I had spent more time with Embry trying to get to know him better. Me and Emily had him over for dinner a few times.

But despite that I was still green with envy.

I went in with the others and helped them put the crib together. Seth read the directions, while I put the crib together. It was tricky but in the end I got it. I only wish Leah was here to see it. But she and Embry had gone off for a quick walk in the woods. Alone.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Leah P.O.V

We were walking through the woods.

Embry had asked me, and I was unable to think of a reason to say no.

We held hands but we said not a word. There was tension in the air, so thick it could be cut with a knife. Was he planning to give me the bracelet? Was that why he wanted a walk? Damn it I should said I was tired or something!

“Leah we need to talk.” He said.

Shit, he is going to do it. He is going to ask me!

“Embry no,” I said letting go of his hand.

“Yes Leah we need to talk.”

“Well my answer is still no. I won’t marry you.” I said.

He was stunned speechless. Then he snapped out of it. “Who said anything about marriage?” He asked.

“I know about the bracelet,” I said.

“How? Did Jake tell you!?” He asked angrily.

“No Nessie did. She over heard you and Jake that day when you told Jake and she showed me at the shower.”

We stood there in silence not speaking. “Why didn’t you say anything?” He asked. “If you knew why didn’t you say anything?”

“I didn’t want to make you feel bad by saying no.” I said. “Why have you waited so long to ask?”

“Jake was right, it was too soon. I didn’t want to frighten you away by asking you for commitment.” He said.

Just then the baby decided she needed to kick right then. I put a hand on my stomach and cursed phasing. If I hadn’t phased those times months earlier I would be eight months later on in my pregnancy and that much closer to giving birth.

But instead I was stuck in six month’s because I had phased, so now I had to deal with it for longer. Which meant I had to deal with all the cons of pregnancy longer then what a woman should have to.

“Are you okay?” Embry asked walking over to me.

“Yeah, she’s kicking hard.” I said.

“Here sit down,” He said moving me over to a large wooden stump to sit.

“I’m sorry if I upset you,” He said.

“It’s not you, she’s the one using my kidneys as a punching bag.” I said rubbing my side. Having a normal baby is bad, having a wolf baby is worse, they kick harder.

“I meant about the bracelet,” He said.

“I’m sorry for avoiding you.” I said.

He bent down on one knee so he could look me in the eyes. The symbolism was not lost to me.

“I now you have no reason to trust me, I know I could imprint. I know this is too familiar for you because I’m Sam’s brother. But Leah in the last couple of months I have grown to love you more and more each day. I’m not proposing, but I just want you to know I can wait Leah. And I will always be here for you.”

He took my hand in his, and used his thumb to gently wipe away the tears that was pooling down my cheeks.

“I want to marry you. I want us to be together forever, to live together, to make love together, and maybe one day…raise a family together.” He said shyly.

I had a vision then. Not like Alice, just a small little day dream. Me and Embry a few years from now. He had just come home from work all sweaty and tired. I had just gotten done folding laundry and was also getting ready to make dinner. He walks up to me and kisses me and I return the favor. I ask him how his day was and he tells me how tiring it was. Then three children come running in. A girl and two little boys, they all group around Embry, hugging him and calling him dad. He hugs them and ruffles their hair. The rest of the night we eat as a family and watch T.V together. Then it is bed time and we tuck the children to bed. Then after the children have fallen asleep, I and Embry make love in our bed. Maybe another child will result, maybe not.

I see this in my head, and it is good.

Although my heart swells at this, my mind tells me to be careful and take it slow. Hearts can be wonderful things, but there too fragile to follow. So I do the smart thing and listen to my mind.

“It’s too soon Embry; I love you I really do. But I’m not ready. I have so many things going on in my life right now I can’t deal with marriage right now.” I said.

“I understand,” He said sadly.

“Maybe in the future when I get things worked out with the baby, and this shit with the Makahs is handled. Then maybe there will be wedding bells.”

“Really?” He asked his eyes lighting up.

“These past two months I have been so worried about the meeting and trying to avoid you I hadn’t stopped to think about the pros of marrying you. I got this image in my head of you and me and our own family. We were living the dream Embry, house, kids, and the whole damn thing. And you know what, I want it. But not now…but…later.” I smiled at him.

He smiled back and he hugged me then. He was pressed so tightly against me he felt it when the baby kicked.

“She’s happy,” He said rubbing my stomach. “So are we….engaged?”

Good question. “Mmmm, let’s just say no and yes. We’ll wait a little longer and if everything is going good then I’ll say yes. I mean were still so young Embry, we need to prepare for the future first.”

“That’s fine with me.” He kissed me on the head.

“Sorry to interrupt,” A voice said. We turned and saw Sam. He stared at us stone faced. “We need to go; it’s time for the meeting.” Before either of us could say anything he turned and left.

“How long do you think he was there?” I asked.

“Long enough.”

Fusedtwilight: I just had to have Leah and Embry resolve the whole marriage thing, I think Leah has had enough angst in her life. But what will Sam’s reaction be? Next chapter is the meeting with the Makah’s, what will happen? Review.
