I don't own anything.
There are some times in life when you do really stupid things. There are other times when you do stupid things and don't try to stop doing them. Something stupid is exactly how I ended up pregnant with my best friend's baby. At 17 years old. I look back now and realize that those things must have happened for a reason. Everything happens for a reason. Doesn't it?
Leah's POV
It's Friday night, I'm sitting on the kitchen counter at the Cullen's house. The Cullen's are like my second family. Scrap that, they are family. Carlisle, Esme, Emmett, Alice and Edward. Edward. My best friend. He knew me better than anyone. Sometimes he knows me better than I know myself. "Now kids, are you sure you're all going to be ok?" Esme asked for what had to be the tenth time in the last half an hour. Carlisle and Esme are going away for the weekend. Which means one thing; PARTY! Usually I would be the first person to suggest a party, but this weekend just feels, different. It could be because ALL of our parents are going away. Edward's, my mum, Rosalie and Jasper's and Bella's Dad. I just have this feeling like something big is going to happen. "Leah!" Back in reality Rosalie had been trying to get my attention. "What?" I asked "Are you going to get dressed any time soon?" She looked me up and down "God, sometimes I wonder how your mother let's you out of the house looking like that." I looked down at me ripped jeans and Forks high T-shirt. There is nothing wrong with the way I dress. "Leah!" Rosalie yelled at me, clicking her perfectly manicured fingers in my face. "What?" I demanded "I said Alice has picked out an outfit for you."
"Sorry Rose, Leah's gone off to la la land again!" Edward teased me. I picked up the closest thing to hand, an apple, and chucked it as his head. Of course he caught it without any trouble and took a bite out of it. He winked at me and walked out of the room.
"Ok Kids we're off. We'll be back on Sunday evening and all of us have got our phones. Don't do anything stupid. Emmett don't break anything!" Esme instructed us before Carlisle managed to push her out the door. "Bye kids!" he yelled over his shoulder. The sound off tyres on the driveway faded out and we were alone. "Ok, people are arriving in 30 minutes! Let's get this party started!" Emmett hollered. "Tanya will be here in a few minutes." Edward informed us. "OH joy!" Rosalie and I said together. Tanya. There are many words to describe her. Slut, liar, complete and utter B***h. In the past Edward had had many girlfriends. It never bothered me because he always said I would come first. Lauren, Jessica, most of the cheerleading squad. The only one's he would never be with, Me, Alice and Rosalie. That would just be odd. Not to mention that with Alice that would be incest.
Speaking of Alice she ran into the kitchen and pulled me off the counter. For someone who is so small she sure is strong. "Come with me, I have to make you look fabulous!" The evil pixie dragged me upstairs for some light torture.
Upstairs Alice and Rosalie had somehow got me into black mini skirt, a black top with half lace and black ankle boots. "I think she needs more lip gloss" Alice said to Rosalie. "And she needs more eye shadow." Rosalie noted. "I think she can hear you!" I said in third person. Rosalie huffed and poked me with a hair brush. "You'll do" She said before flouncing out the room. Alice nodded her agreement and ran out the door.
How did I end up with such crazy friends?

People covering every available floor space. Alice and Rosalie had come down the stairs and disappeared into the sea of people. Emmett, Jazz "Dude look" Emmett pointed at the stairs. Leah. She glided down the stairs with her long black ringlets blowing out behind her. Her hazel eyes looked pitch black in the dark. Her eyes locked onto mine and she smiled. She walked easily through the people and the parted around her like the red sea. She had a golden aura around her. She glowed. "You're staring man" Jasper nudged me in the ribs. Leah finally got to us and smiled. "Hey guys, good party huh?" she smiled and her whole face lit up. Her smile was infectious. It made anyone near her smile as well. "Yeah, oh Sam and Emily heading this way." Leah's cousin and ex-boyfriend pushed through the crowd and came over. "Hey Leah!" Emily greeted her cousin with nothing but bright smiles. Like she never cheated with Leah's boyfriend for three weeks.
"Oh, hi Emily." Leah replied to her cousin flatly. Sam stood next to Emily looking rather uncomfortable. Good. He deserves to be uncomfortable. He looks at me and then looks away. Remembering the time when I punched him in face and broke his nose. The day I found out that he was a lying bastard my fist made an appointment with his face. "So Sam how's your nose?" I asked giving him a look.
Emmett and Jasper snickered behind me. Sam shifted from one foot to another and looked away. "Fine thanks." He mumbled. Emily was still talking to Leah not noticing that she wasn't even listening. A flash of straight blonde hair caught my hair. Tanya made her way over to where I was standing. She had on a short red dress and bright red lipstick. She wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me. "Hey baby." She smiled brightly at me. "Oh please, spare me." Leah looked at Tanya in disgust. "What's your problem Clearwater?" Tanya demanded. Big mistake. "Let me think, my problem is you!" Leah's quick comeback made Tanya furious. "To bad you can't do anything about it!" Tanya hugged me and batted her eyelashes at her. "Oh yeah, watch me!" Before anyone could anything Leah lunged at Tanya. Leah fell to the floor and brought Tanya down with her. Faces being scratched and hair being pulled; a classic cat fight. "Jasper, help me separate them." I yelled over the load music. Jasper managed to get a shrieking Leah off Tanya and pulled her into the kitchen. "You really need to get new friends Edward!" Tanya announced before flouncing off. "Just wouldn't be a party without a catfight" Emmett said before going off in search of beer.

"That girl is so evil, like does she seriously think that Edward is just gonna ditch his best friend 'cause he's with her?" Jasper had managed to drag me off Tanya and had pushed me into a chair in the kitchen. "Here, drink this" he handed me a bottle of beer and it was gone in seconds. "I'm going to need something stronger than that." I got up started looking through the drinks cupboards. Hmm, Cocktail time! A got a glass and mixed fruit juice and vodka together with some strawberry syrup. Voila! I drank my cocktail and bopped along to the music. Yep, wasted.
Alice, Rosalie and Emmett came bouncing through the kitchen door. "Leah, make us some drinks please." Alice gave me her famous puppy dog pout which no one could resist.
I pulled all the drinks out of the cupboard and started randomly pouring drinks into glasses.
About twenty minutes later the kitchen had filled up with people and Jasper were having a drinking completion to see who could drink twenty shots in one go the fastest. And I was winning of course. "What the heck?" Jacob and Bella had strolled through the door holding hands. "Jacob, you've got lip gloss on your face." I said raising my eyebrows at him. "Opsie!" Bella whipped the pink lip gloss stains of her boyfriends face. "Um, Bella since when do you say' opsie?' I questioned. Bella looked at me giggled. Oh, she was so drunk. "So, drinking games, what's the prize?" Jake asked looking at me "Hmmm, fifty bucks." He pulled out some crisp notes and placed them on the table. "Jasper pour the drinks."

"Alright, first to finish all twenty glasses wins. Ready, set, Go!" The cheering started and the contestants started to drink. The look of pure determination on Leah's face was priceless. She seemed to move in slow motion and everything around her blurred as she moved towards me. She came over and looked up at me "Hey you" she whispered "Hey yourself"
Now would have been the perfect time to tell her I was in love with her. But I didn't want to ruin our friend ship. "What are you thinking about?" She asked staring straight at me; looking straight through me. "You" I answered truthfully. "I'm right here" Leah looked over my shoulder and smiled. I twisted around and looked into the dark room, our friends dancing and laughing. "So why are you thinking about me?" Leah looked up at me with her big hazel eyes. I kissed her forehead before walking away. "I'm always thinking about you."

'I'm always thinking about you'. Why does Edward always have to be so secretive and talk in codes? "Leah come dance with us!" Alice's light voice wafted over the music over to where I was leaning against the kitchen door way. The pixie came over and dragged me back to where Rosalie was. "What's the matter with you?" Rosalie saw everything. "Nothing, Edwards just being weird." Edward was currently in the corner with Tanya who was clinging on to him like he was a lift raft. "Newsflash Edwards always being weird, just stop thinking and have fun" Rose grabbed my hand and twirled me round in circles. Fine I can have fun for one night. Anything could happen. "I have to pee I'm going to bathroom" Rosalie and Alice nodded. I started pushing through the people and ran up the stairs. Damn it, the bathroom had a que and I was not joining it. Edward has a bathroom. I walked down the dark hallway and up another flight of stairs to Edward's room. Reaching up and grabbing the key from the hiding place. Shove the key in the lock and turn; extremely difficult when you have to pee. Slamming the door behind me and running into the bathroom.

Sneaking up the stairs unnoticed was easy. Sneaking past the long line of people was slightly difficult. Tanya has her spies everywhere. If anyone saw me follow Leah upstairs I'd be a dead man. I reached out and turned the door handle. It was unlocked. Stepping into the room and shutting the door behind me. A light seeped out from underneath the bathroom door. The sound of the chain flushing and taps running. Then everything stopped. And then she stepped out.

I turned off the light and exited the bathroom into the dark room. The light suddenly came making me jump. Edward was lying on his bed watching me. "What are you doing in here?" I asked whiles trying to restart my heart. "I could ask you the same question." He raised his eyebrows at me and started walking towards me. "I had to pee, is that a crime?" I asked walking backwards as he continued towards me. I hit my back against the door. He had me trapped. "Wait, I'm confused, what's this about?" I questioned him. "No one is allowed to use my bathroom, that's why the door was locked."
"Well you shouldn't have told me were the key was. So in fact this is your fault." He looked down at me and pressed his forehead against mine. Then he kissed me. I pulled away and stared at him in shock "What are you doing?" I asked "Kissing you." He looked at me like it was a normal thing. "Yes I'm aware of that, may I ask why you were kissing me?"
He shrugged "'Cause I want to." And then he kissed me again. And for whatever reason which I will never know, I kissed him back. It could have been the bottle of vodka I earlier drank and the cocktails, and the beers, or could have been heat of the moment.
But what I do know is that it didn't stop there. It went on, and on and on. The last thing I remember is falling onto the bed.
Okay, please review this and tell me if you liked it; and if you want me to continue because I have a lot of ideas for this story. I'd like to hear what you have to say. Thanks. ; )
