Vampires and werewolves are the norm in Forks, except nobody knows.
Aubree Jacobs doesn't know what she's in for when she moves to the town, and experiences the Quiluete tribe in their full glory. She may just find her mate, too.
Set a few years aft...
I've almost perfectly ignored Embry for almost 6 weeks now; he's blanked me back, so it's been pretty easy. And I say 'almost' because the one day I go back to LaPush to walk Buddy along the beach just had to be the one day Embry decided to go cliff jumping with the pack. Fantastic. Ha.
I inhale sharply and whistle to Buddy, throwing his ball the opposite direction to the cliffs. "Good boy." I smile as I throw him a treat. I begin to lightly jog as he runs beside me, weaving in and out of driftwood like he always does.
"Should you be doing that while pregnant?" A voice asks.
I stop running but refuse to turn around. "Carlisle says it's fine."
"Alright... what does he say about 'I was an asshole' syndrome? I think I have that." Embry says.
I bite my cheek to hide my smirk. "Dunno. A burrito and an apology could go a long way." I throw Buddy's ball again, resting a hand on my tummy as I bend over.
"I'm sorry. I'm beyond sorry, I never should have said those things; I was the one who made you feel like you couldn't tell me and I feel horrible for that. You should have felt able to come to me, tell me, and I made you feel like you couldn't."
I turn around and face him; no shirt, dirty shorts and messy, uncut hair. "You fall apart without me huh?" I smirk a little. "And yes, you were an asshole. But so was I - this is our baby which means it's our decision. I was panicked, scared. I thought maybe if I got rid of it before anyone knew it would be okay, then Pipper guessed and Edward heard... I freaked." I sigh.
"We need to both grow a pair of balls huh?" He smiles gently. I giggle and nod. "You're already showing..."

"No that's just the 3 burritos I ate on my way here." I blush as I glance down at the bump that seems to appear and disappear sometimes; it's very evident right now under the body hugging workout shirt.
"Three!?" Embry laughs. "Baby, I eat three." He winks.
I blush more, at his teasing and how he already called me baby. See? It's so easy to go back to normal with him. "Yeah yeah, whatever. I had a scan... 13 weeks along." I say.
He looks down frowning. "You had a scan without me."
I sigh and grab my phone from my pocket. I take the case off and hold out the scan picture I had tucked in there. "Here; the doctor said he she is pretty decent sized."
Embry takes the picture gently. "It's... a blob."
I giggle. "Pretty much, yeah. He she will grow legs and arms soon, though."
"He she?" He raises an eyebrow as the wind blows his shaggy hair into his face.
I blush and giggle. "I hate saying 'it' so Alice and the girls call the baby 'he she'. I guess it's stuck."
