Love knows no boundaries [Rae & Katybug]

[Raerae]

What had been months seemed like a blurred nightmare to Rae. It'd been one thing to have Sun just cut her off, but losing Edward had made her hollow and broken. She'd never told a soul about anything. And then, there were these... eyes. She dreamt about them, and saw them randomly, crimson, burning, and watching. She was too depressed to be scared, though.


She forced a smile when Mike began to speak with her, something he'd done a lot since Edward left. "Spring break already?" She asked, hardly aware. "I don't really have plans. Netflix, maybe." She laughed weakly, sighing as she tried to help put a table away.


---


"Whaaat? Nah, she looks like her beautiful mommy," Jacob said uncharacteristically, his grin pearly white and bright.


She so looks like me!


He was so at ease since the Cullens left their lair and broke their toy. There were fewer morphs, no animosity, and he and Sonya had no drama, no need to worry, and thus... had a baby. It was a time of such peace with so little need to patrol or change, he felt... normal.


"You look exhausted, babe. Promise you'll rest when we get home?" He asked. He refered to her father's house as home at the moment, Ivan had been very considerate and supportive of their decision, you know, once he got past trying to persuade Sun not to, which Jake let slide. They were house searching, which was a mature step for him, but Sam, Emily, Billy and just about everyone else was on board and very helpful.

Mike smiled as he helped her. " Well why don't we go out and do something"he said smiling. "Maybe we can go get dinner see a movie"he offered as he put some chairs away. "I mean....I hate seeing you being alone all the time"he said as they finished up not knowing a sliver car was parked in the parking lot watching everything.


"I'll try"she said smiling as Sara slept peacefully in her seat. She was dressed in a little white Ling sleeved oneise with pink turquoise green orange hearts and little footed pink pants with paw prints on the feet. " a nap sounds nice"she said as they made it home. "No more until we are married"

 

[Raerae]

"That's really sweet of you, Mike," She said, but his name didn't feel right when she said it, maybe because she was used to his ex Jessica saying it during trig. Her stomach clenched as she tried to think of an answer that'd give her time to think, but all that swirled in her mind was that beautiful face she'd held onto like a pathetic, lovesick girl. "Can I get a rain check on that? I'll call you, okay? Promise."


She discreetly wiped away a tear from her face, and excused herself, saying she had to head home early as she left the scene. But she didn't, nor did she have a ride. Being alone was just... easier than faking it.


---


"Hah, deal. Won't be long, Sun," Jacob laughed, but quickly shushed himself, remembering Sara was fast asleep. He pulled into her father's driveway, parking and quickly slipping out to help Sun and then offer to carry the car seat.


Billy rolled out and her father with him, both smiling and anxiously awaiting a peek at the tiny new comer. "I want to see her, Jake." Billy told him, and Jacob waved as if to tell him to wait. "Don't strain yourself, babe. I'll carry both of you if you want?" He asked.

 

[katybug1314]

" I'll hold you to it"he said as he finished up the little things that needed to be done. It was a cool March night rain about to pour any moment. The sliver car stayed hidden watching carefully wanting to see what happened.


As she started to walk to walk home a jeep pulled up next to Rae honking. It was Sonya's cousin Albert Albie for short. "Hey hun need a ride?"he asked rolling down the window. "I'm heading that way"


~~~~~


Sun smiled seeing their fathers look like they were ready to battle to see the newborn though they hadn't seen her since she was born and she understood the dying to see Sara.


"I can make it in the house though I may need help going up the stairs"she said as she got out slowly trying hard not to wince as she walked into the house.

 

[Raerae]

It took a minute for Rae to remember who he was. She winced when she did. "Um... Yeah, thanks Albie."


She climbed into the jeep, sighing heavily when she plopped down in the seat and leaned her head against the window.


---


Billy rolled out a little, Ivan hurrying over and holding out his arms, "I can help either lady," He grinned, and Jacob chuckled a little.


"I'll get Sun upstairs, mind taking Sara?" He asked, and gently handed the car seat over to her father. He trusted the man, after all, he did raise Sonya. Jacob held onto Sun firmly but gently, greeting his rather as they passed him, and then offering to carry her upstairs. He wished she could heal like he did, she'd been strong during the birth but it still really drained her.

 

[katybug1314]

"No problem"he said as he pushed Loki back. " I gotta take him home to meet his new sister and or chew toy"he said as he started off. " How have you been kid?'he asked looking at her as he turned on the heat to warm her up. "Been awhile"he said as he headed down the dark road.


Ivan took the car seat and headed in. Once they were in he handed Sara to Billy. " We got her"Ivan said smirking looking at the sleeping pink bundle.


Sonya winced abit as Jake walked with her. 38 hours of labor and a c section had really kicked her ass. She kissed Jake sweetly once she was in bed. " Are you ready for pink everything? "She joked.

 

[Raerae]

"Wait... New sister?" Rae asked, feeling her stomach twist a little. So Sonya had been pregnant? She'd had a dream about it, but never imagined it'd been a vision. She sighed heavily.


"I've been out of it, honestly. Really lonely," She admitted. "Junior year ended horribly, and I'm surrounded by all the wrong people this year."


Although a part of her missed Sonya, even after what she'd said, she knew who she really missed. I miss you, Edward.





---


He laughed with her, pulling the covers up and propping the pillow as gentle as his strong hands could beneath her head. "Do I have a choice?"


True, he'd kind of been hoping for a little Jake to rough house with, but once he laid eyes on little Sara, the gender absolutely didn't matter anymore. "We'll even dictate a room to it in our own house, alright? He grinned, knowing Sun would have no problem dominating a nursery room with Emily.


"Need anything?" He asked her, gently placing his hand on her cheek. He'd watched her really fighting yesterday to keep it together. Killed him on the inside, but knowing she made it through was all that mattered in the end.

 

[katybug1314]

"Yep. ..and after graduation baby"he said as he got out the phone and pulled up a picture of him holding. "I'm on spring break so i took Loki for a few days and I'm bringing him to meet her"he said knowing the two had been fighting Or fight. " Would you want to come see her?"he asked thinking that see the tiny human might cheer her up abit.


She closed her eyes happy to relax in her soft bed. "Just something to eat and make sure those two down there are not planning on kidnapping her"she joked as she got her phone. "Albie is on his way with Loki"she said yawning slightly.

 

[Raerae]

"I... Really don't know Albie, that day kind of... ruined my life," She told him, remembering Edward's face when he said they were leaving, mirroring her pain, and her dislike towards the wolves had skyrocketed. "And they made it clear I wasn't welcome back."


Not like I'd go back after what she called the Cullens.


---


Jacob snorted and headed for the door, "Alright, babe."


He jogged downstairs, wondering when Albert would get here and how soon Loki could be introduced to Sara. The pup had sure grown in size, still young but way bigger than when she'd first gotten him.


"Hey you two didn't turn into baby bandits did ya?" He asked a He swerved into the kitchen.


Billy laughed his ancient laugh. "No, no, just watching her eyes. They've got the same spunk that Sonya has."


"Watch out for this one," Ivan chuckled, and Jacob and Billy laughed with him.

 

[katybug1314]

"Come on you can see a chubby little new born"he said as he drove. He than stopped the car seeing Loki trying to chew on the seats. " stop it you little ass"he said shaking his head. "That dog is so spoiled"he said notcing a sliver Volvo zip by them. Like his cousin he started to cuss in Romanian before starting back off again.


"Nah I've already raised a crazy girl it will be nice to spoil one"Ivan said as the little girl started grumbling not liking the back and forth they were doing.

 

[Raerae]

Albert had successfully made Rae laugh a little, but it was such an unfamiliar sound to her, and her chest only ached in return. It wasn't until she saw such a familiar car whiz by that the ache really settled in, and she just sighed feebly. "Whatever you want to do," She knew Sonya would just scream at her and then she'd be walking all the way home from La Push. If Jacob didn't pulverize her.


---


"Hey, hey, she's getting fussy," Jacob told them, and instinctively scooped her up, such a tiny thing in his big, muscled arms. He gently rocked her as he cradled her, letting his warmth surround her as opposed to the slight chill in the air from the oncoming rain. Damn Forks was always under water.

 

[katybug1314]

"I hate that dog. Doesn't listen to anyone other than Sonya"he said shaking his head as he texted Sonya letting her know that he was on his way with Loki and Rae. He pulled up to the familiar house. " they haven't made the move to LA Push yet"he stated as he got out and let the dog out of the car.


Sonya groaned at the text not that she was upset that Rae was coming she was kinda happy. It was thinking she would have to make it down stairs. She quickly texted Jake telling him to behave while Rae was here and to help her down.

 

[Raerae]

Rae felt sick at her stomach, nodding to respond to Albert though his words rarely reached her. She slipped out of the car with him, sighing as she watched Loki happily bolt off in its familiar surroundings towards the house.


-


Jacob didn't hesitate to jog upstairs after handing the baby back Billy. He helped Sonya up, but his scowl was grave. "I swear if she says the wrong thing I'll hurl her little white ass all the way to Seattle," He growled, already on the defense. How Sonya wasn't infuriated was beyond him, though knowing the leeches were gone and left their toy behind helped.

 

[katybug1314]

" Jacob calm down"she said as she happily sat down on the couch smiling happily when Sara was snuggled in her eyes. Having Sara had calmed Sonya's wild nature down....well for the moment at least. She kissed the little ones head.


Albie let Loki in the house who made a bee line for the tiny pink bundle looking and sniffing. Sun corrected Loki telling him to be nice. Sun looked at the door....looking for Rae.

 

[Raerae]

When she crossed the lawn, that's when she saw them, again. The red irises that watched her from afar, too distant to make out a shape, but close enough that she knew they were really there. They faded as she continued towards the door, looking behind her one last time and, seeing nothing, she hesitantly stepped inside.


Nestled on the couch was a tired but blissful looking Sonya, in her arms a bundle of pink, at her feet, Loki. She shivered when she felt that what emanating from Jacob who was suddenly beside her, but his nose wasn't scrunched up like it always had been. "At least you don't reek."


Her heart lurched but she didn't comment, noting Ivan was busy in the kitchen preparing food, and who she assumed was Jacobs father sat in a wheelchair, watching her with calm yet thoughtful eyes.


"Hi, Sonya," Rae managed to say, and felt Albert urge her further inside. She took hesitant steps inside, her cold fingers shoved into her jacket pockets. Her face was notably more pale, and her eyes were tired and bleak. "Congratulations, for the baby, I mean..."


Jacob was standing beside them, a little less defensive than the last time she'd seen him, but still scowling wit his arms folded.

 

[katybug1314]

Albie closed the door behind Rae before putting Loki's things in the kitchen.


When Sonya heard the reek she swatted Jake's leg and glared at him Before turning to Rae. Noting how bad she looked. "Do you want to hold her"she asked as the tiny human started to stir waking up.

 

[Raerae]

Jacob's muscles flexed at the suggestion, "Sun, I don't..."


"Come now, Jacob, this young woman won't hurt anyone." Billy spoke suddenly, and although his son scoffed, he did manage to sit down finally, which allowed Rae's tense shoulders to fall a little.


"Sure," She breathed, and gently held out her hands and lifted the baby into her arms, where it made little noises and blinked a couple times. Rae wasn't really the motherly type, nor did she adorn babies like everyone else; but Sonya and Jacob's baby was very sweet and little, and looked just like them.


She felt a sharp pang of envy that they were so happy, noting it'd been their accusations that caused the Cullens to leave; but she slowly calmed herself and realized that what was done was done, it wasn't like the vampires were bringing her into their family, they were long gone now. She was by herself, and that's just how some people were supposed to end up.


"She looks so much like the two of you," Rae commented softly, her eyes rheumy and tired. "I'm really happy for you, Sonya. And you too, Jacob."


"Sure, sure," He grumbled, rolling his eyes and resting his elbows on his knees. He watched Rae for a moment, scrutiny clear on his face; she looked worn, he almost felt bad. Almost. "Alright, alright, hand her over." He took Sara and held her securely, leaning beside Sonya and completing the happy little family picture.

 

[katybug1314]

"She looks more like Jake but I hope she is nothing like us in the attitude department"she said smiling watching as she watched Rae and Sara elbowing Jake every so often when she didn't like a face he made or the way he was breathing. " We named her after Jake's mom"she said remembering the day the told Billy they were having a girl and she was going to be named Sara....it had been Billy's birthday.


When Jake took Sara back Sun shook her head." Don't be offended he did that with the nurses"she said leaning back feeling drained.


Albie saw his cousin who wanted/needed rest. " I can give you a ride home now I have dropped off the monster."he said heading out to the car. Having no idea that Edward was waiting at Rae's

 

[Raerae]

"That's wonderful, really," She told them, the lump in her throat twice as large.


When Albert suggested he could take her home, Jake happily chimed in. "Probably should, Sun's exhausted," He seemed so approving the suggestion, so Rae nodded and started stepping back towards the door.


"Congratulations, Sonya, feel better," Rae told her with a little smile, and then disappeared out the front door, listening as Jacob speedily slammed it shut right behind her.


The eyes that had been in the shrouded audience of trees weren't there when she stepped out. She didn't know whether to feel relieved or crazy. Her chest heaved and she just wanted to go curl up in her room, no one was home so she was free to sulk. Maybe the owners of the eyes would finally come get her.


"Thanks for the ride," She told Albert as she slipped into the car. She felt an odd tug inside her, urging her to head home sooner. She sighed, assuming it was just the locked up sobs.


---


"Foods finished," Ivan chimed, and brought his daughter a nice, hot plate of her assorted favorites, meat especially. Jake caught a whiff of it and jumped to his feet again, "Course, Jake, there's extra if you want some."


"Don't mind if I do," Jacob grinned and hurried into the kitchen. "Dad, you want some?"


"Yes, thank you," Billy sighed, his eyes on the window as he watched Sonyas cousin drive off.

 

[katybug1314]

Albie dropted her off after telling her about school in Portland than dropped her off and headed off for home.


Once he was gone and he was sure Edward stepped out of his car. "I told you she would get pregnant and get stuck out there"he said his hands in his pockets.


Once dinner was done Sonya changed Sara had Jake take her up first than bring Sara up so they could put her down for the night and try to sleep herself. Sun tossed her hair up into a messy bun. "So everyone knows that you won't be on patrol for the next few days right? "

 

[Raerae]

"...Edward?" She asked, though she knew it was him by the purr of his voice. She was slightly breathless and felt her heart swell at the sight of him. She didn't hesitate to wrap her arms around him, "I've missed you every day you've been gone... So, so, so much..."


---


"Yeah, I told Sam not to bug us, he said he'd do his best. Since there's no murders, I don't think I need to be on patrol at all, really. Plus, they've got Seth and he's just full of energy. Leah, too." He noted, saying her name with a slight grimace.


"Don't worry, Sun. If anything happens I'll talk to you First," He promised, and pulled her in for a kiss.

 

[katybug1314]

He wrapped his arms around kissing the top of her head sweetly. " I am so sorry"he whispered gently pulling away to look at her. "Let's get you sonethino to eat" he said gently walking with her to his car.


She kissed him back before laying down in the bed. She kept the TV on low mostly just for the light to see Sara. Both mother and daughter were sleeping when a text came to jake's phone from Paul's phone. " Saw Dr Cullens car"

 

[Raerae]

She didn't hesitate to slip into the passenger seat, taking a deep breath and remembering it just like it was yesterday. "A year was way too long, Edward," She told him, but her voice soft and light hearted. "I'm so glad you didn't forget about me."


---


Jake remained calm as he could whilst he laid there with his little family, but his muscles were tight and flexed, and his brows were furrowed.


You think there's a chance it's just the doctor? He sent back, on edge though he tried not to snarl out loud.

 

[katybug1314]

" I couldn't forget you" he said as he started off speeding more than normal trying to avoid the wolves seeing him. " You haven't been taking care of yourselves" he said his voice sounded as though he was alittle upset that she hadn't been taking care of himself. He wanted her to try and be normal...not around vampires.


~~~


" Maybe...the for sale sign is gone from there place...maybe they sold it" Paul reasoned. Sonya stirred walking herself up looking at Sara before slowly started to get up to go get something to eat. " Do you need anything?" she whispered seeing he was alittle on edge.

 

[Raerae]

"I... Tried," She mumbled, though she knew that wasn't really true. Ever since the family left she'd just felt... like she was missing something again. Having Edward back filled the void.


"But I've been really alone. And then Mike asks me out," she rolled her eyes. "And then Albert shows up and insists I visit Sonyas child I didn't know about. Ugh..." She rubbed her rheumy eyes.


---


"Huh?" He looked at Sonya, rising to his feet to help her walk. "No, babe, I'm fine. Just.. talking with Paul."


With one hand he responded to Paul, the other gently holding his significant other. "Damn leeches. Let Sam know. The peace might be over."
