It was just a relaxed day in La Push for us. Most of the pack was at the beach. I was wrestling with Paul while Bella was talking to Jacob. It was nice to have a break from chasing down vampires all the time. These were rare, of course.

Kasey and Paul worked everything out. She still wasn't to used to us being wolves but, she was better than before. They were on the verge of dating, I could tell. I heard from both of them that they kissed recently. Kase is just waiting on Paul to make a move. He's just too nervous which is extremely unusual.

Edward hasn't even spoken to Bella since he showed up at her house that night and I was glad.

Oh, and recently, we caught the red head. So, Bella is safe now. No more leeches trying to kill her, that I know of.

"Uh, Em?"

I quickly flipped Paul onto the ground and got up. "Yeah? What's up?"

"Can you take me home?" There was a nervous edge in her voice.

"Sure, what's wrong?"

Bella sighed. "My mom is coming."

I raised an eyebrow. "Oh." My experiences with parents aren't the best. I didn't really know how to react.

We quickly go to her house and I was getting extremely nervous. I'm meeting my imprints mom. Which, Bella never really talked about, I realized. So, I don't know if she knows about us or not.. I hope there isn't a fight over this..

"Hey mom." Bella still sounded nervous.

I don't hold her hand or anything in fear of messing something up. "Hello, Ms…" I wasn't sure what her last name was, so I just trailed off.

"Just call me Renee." She grinned seeming very.. Hyperactive compared to Bella and Charlie.

I nodded with a small smile. "I'm Ember Grey."

"This is my girlfriend, mom." Bella muttered hesitantly.

My heart was now speeding and fear ran through me. Even though Renee didn't seem like the homophobic type, I was still afraid of her disowning Bella over me. I didn't want that.

She surprised me by smiling. "Well, why haven't you told me about her before, Bella?"

A shocked expression was on Bella's face. "I-I didn't know how you would feel about it."

"Honey, you're my baby. Whoever you decide is who you want to be with is fine with me." She turned to me looking at me curiously. "I hope you're treating my daughter right."

"Of course. I'd never hurt her."

Bella smiled. "She really is mom."

Lunch with Renee was great. She told me all these stories about Bella when she was kid. Most of them I found hilarious. I'm sure she was adorable. Of course, Renee gave me a talk when Bella had to go use the bathroom. But, I found it extremely hard to find Renee intimidating. I was just happy she accepted Bella being with me.


Five years later..

"Babe! I'm home!" It was early morning. Jacob, our new Alpha, had me on morning patrol.

Bella was sitting in the living room with Delilah snuggled in her arms. "How was patrol?"

I shrugged as I picked up Delilah from Bella's arms. "Nothing exciting happened. Which I guess is a good thing."

Delilah was only two months old and a real cutie. She had pale skin and bright blue eyes. Her hair was a mess of brown. We adopted her when she was a newborn. Her mom was too young to be able to take care of her and we happily took her in as our own.

"How was she today?" I asked with a slight smile when Delilah grinned at me.

"She was pretty good, actually. Seth came over and spent some time with her."

I sighed. "I'll never get used to that."

The day we brought Delilah home, the pack came over to meet her. Seth imprinted on her in the process.

"I think its cute. Anyways, its not like he likes her romantically right now. He's just like a big brother."

"I know.. Its just strange. I bet if we adopted another they would get imprinted on too."

Bella laughed with a smile and shook her head. "I love you."

I grinned back at her. "I love you too."

End!
