LEAH'S POV
"Sam." I ran up to him. He looked bewildered.. But he hugged me..
"Oh, Leah." He said. "I've missed you so." He said.
"Where have you been?" I asked. "You've been gone for two months.. Months Sam. They thought you were dead! Where have you been?" I demanded.
"Leah.. I don't know.. I don't know how to explain this.. It is really weird... I just don't really get it.. I don't know what's going on... I mean I know.. But I really don't exactly get it...." He stammered. I looked down at him.. He was standing there naked. I looked up at him.. He had gotten so tall! And he was so warm.
"Sam." I said, placing my hands gently against his chest. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?" I asked.
"Oh, Lee-Lee. Don't worry about me.. I'm fine. No, I'm not hurt. Don't worry about me." He told me. I looked up at him, begging to see if he was lying. "Leah, don't worry. Really.. I'm yours. Don't worry. I won't leave you.. And I'm fine." I pulled off my jacket and handed it to him.
"Come on. We need to get you into some clothes." I told him, pulling him out of the forest and into the house..
"Leah. What about your parents?" He asked.
"They are at the council meeting.. They won't be back for hours." I opened the door and pulled him into the living room.. "You sit." I said, running into Seth's room. Yay, Seth went to the council meeting. I pulled some old sweats out of Seth's bottom drawer. I walked back into the living room holding the sweats. "They might be to small.. But that is really all I have... I stole this from Seth's room." I laughed, handing it to him.
"That will be fine." He smiled at me taking the sweats.
"Are you hungry?" I asked. He laughed.
"Yeah." I turned to go to the kitchen.
"Get dressed." I ordered.. He laughed. ..
I started making a two packs of noodles, then I grabbed a plate. I made garlic toast and put it in the oven..
Then I looked over at the doorway and saw Sam standing there fully dressed watching me.
"Hello, beautiful." He said. He crossed the kitchen and touched my face lightly with his hand.
"Sam. Why are you so hot?" I asked him.
"I don't know! It must be something in my DNA." He joked.
"You know I wasn't talking about that, not that you aren't. You really are. But why-" I took his hand and held it between mine "are you so warm? Are you sick?" I asked him, frowning.
"I don't think so. I feel great.. Better than ever." He smiled.
"Okay.." I muttered, turning back to fix him a plate of noodles. "Go on and eat this. The bread will be done in a minute." I told him, setting the plate down on the table.
"Thanks Lee-Lee." He said, smiling at me. He starting shoveling the food in and I got the garlic bread out of the oven. "Smells great." He said, finishing the noodles on his plate.
"Thanks." I smiled at him and sat down the bread on the table.. .. I sat down in the chair beside him.
He ate everything.. And then he put his arm around me.
"I love you." He said.
"I love you, too.. But Sam you need to go home. You need to go see your mom."
"No." He said, wrapping his arms around my waist.
"Sam. Your mom thinks you are dead. You have to go home." I told him.
"I don't want to leave." He begged.
"Sam, just go home. Talk to your mom. Then sneak out your bedroom window, like you always do.. You can come back.. Sneak in my bedroom window! You've done this before. Just do that again."
"Okay, my Leah. But don't go anywhere. Stay right here." He said. I laughed.
"If I'm staying right here, then how will I see you when you sneak in my bedroom window?"
"Okay.. Just stay in this house!"
"I promise." I vowed. He stood up and I fallowed him. We walked into the hallway and stood in front of the door.. He smiled at me and then put his arms around me.
"I love you, Leah." He said.
"I love you, too." I told him. His leaned in and kissed me.. Something was different.. But I didn't have time to dwell on it... A second later he was gone.
