So here is another Blackwater story! A few things about my story: 1) Leah is all human, she is not and will not become a wolf. 2) Since Leah never phased and was therefore never required to constantly be around Sam and Emily and in Sam's mind, she is not as bitter as she is in the books. Therefore this Leah is a bit OOC. And 3) I am not sure of Leah's actual age so in this she is 19 and Jacob is 17. This story is set to take place in end of New Moon and so on.
As usual I own nothing, the woman who thinks Renesmee is a good name aka Stephenie Meyers does.
Well this definitely is going under the my ten most hated things list. I show up to my father's funeral, completely depressed and confused and what happens? I get imprinted on.. Whatever the hell that even means! By Jacob fucking Black. I have absolutely no idea what imprinting means but I don't want anything to do with it if it has to do with Jacob Black. Mister I-am-so-in-love-with-pale-annoying-Isabella-Swan!
I stomped down the stairs of my house to see my mom and Seth sitting around the table talking. As usual once I came closer they stopped talking and all gave me the fakest smile I had ever seen. I glanced at Seth who had literally grown overnight. One day he's a wimpy kid I could easily pin to the ground the next day he is a huge six foot tall man with a six pack. I cringed at thinking about my brother having a six pack.
"You all ready, Leah?" my mom asked me.
"Why do I have to come again? I have never been invited to any of these bonfires before," I huffed. Whatever imprinting was I was going to find out tonight. My mom said everything would make sense today. I would finally know the truth. To be honest I didn't want to be anywhere near Jacob and his stupid friends, one of which includes my lame ex boyfriend Sam who had dumped me one week and then moving in with my cousin the next week. I hadn't spoken to either since the day I saw them together at the grocery store. Still after all their betrayal my parents still took their side and said I may understand someday.
"This is fu-reaking ridiculous," I caught myself right before my mother threw me a death glare. "I do not want to go to this sh-tuff." Another death glare. It was times like this that I missed my dad. He always made me feel better.
"Get into the car now, Leah." my mother pointed to the door. "And watch your mouth tonight, young lady."
"Not promising anything, mother," I grumbled as I grabbed my jacket. My mom patted my back as I passed.
I climbed into the back seat of the car since the front was filled with snacks for the bonfire and Seth squeezed next to me. He was so huge, my cheek was pressed against the window. I tried to shove him away with no avail.
"Lay off the steroids Seth," I said as I tried distancing myself from the window. "I can't breath, give me some damn space!"
"Oh sorry, Lee," Seth said a little too perky. He scooted away as much as he could and I let out a huge gasp, finally being able to breath again.
"Shit, what the hell have you been eating?" I coughed.
"I just hit a growth spur," Seth smiled. "So excited to see Jacob tonight?"
"Why would you ask me that?" I asked looking out the window as my mom started the car.
"You don't feel anything for him?" my mom asked.
"Would you all just shut up about Jacob. What the hell are you arranging a marriage between us or something?" I yelled. The entire car went silent, no one even smiled. "Shit, that's what this is isn't it? I am not marrying Jacob Black. I will die first. Open the door! I am getting out of here. You are a bunch of sick people! What is this, the 1700's? I have rights you know!"
"Leah Clearwater! Relax, we are not marrying you off!" my mother shouted, breaking me out of my meltdown. "Just hush up and be on your best behavior tonight."
I cringed again as I saw the beach in the near distance. I saw Sam there already, his arms wrapped around Emily. Bastard, I thought, at least I know he was crap in bed!
"Leah it's great to see you," Billy wheeled up to me. I smiled at him politely then let the frown fall back on my face. I did not want to be here. I had better things to do, like sit in my room and hate the world. Also I was missing Shark Week on the Discovery Channel.
I sat down on a log when everyone was suddenly gathering around Billy. I folded my arms and glared, hoping I'd look so menacing no one would want to sit by me. I glanced up and saw Jacob. He looked at me and glared. A glare I gladly returned. What the hell did I do to him? He was the one who supposedly 'imprinted' on me.
Billy began talking and telling stories of how we were descendant from wolves. I had hear these stories since I was a little kid. I tuned out and began playing with my long hair. After a while I felt someone's eyes on me, I looked up to see Jacob staring at me. Once he saw that I had seen him he glared again and turned away. I rolled my eyes and continued playing with my hair.
"Leah, do you understand now?" Billy broke me out of my trance. I looked up to see everyone looking at me.
"Yeah um we need some new stories?" I said.
"Leah!" my mother hissed.
"What? All he talked about was the protectors and their imprin- oh," I stopped. I looked around at everyone. Sam looked pissed off from where he stood. I threw him a glare. "Okay. What the hell is going on? You want me to believe all that is real. Let me guess.. Embry here is a wolf and his imprint is Paul. Oh and Jared over there is actually Taha Aki. And Seth is Taha Wi." I got up and looked around at everyone's shocked faces.
"Oh and I forgot! I am a cold one! Ooooohhhh look at me… I am so cold!" I mocked them but no one found it funny. Scarface Emily actually looked like she was about to cry. "Okay great joke. You guys are so fucking funny. Who organized this? Seth? Or that about my faithful ex boyfriend and best cousin ever? It has been a good six months since you guys fucked up my life so is this what you came up with. What is someone going to jump out of the woods wearing a Teen Wolf costume?"
"Lee-Lee it is all true," Sam said, walking towards me. The look on my face must have warned him to stop. "I imprinted on Emily, that is why I had to leave you. We can all phase into wolves and we patrol our grounds, protecting our people from cold ones."
"W-what?" I looked to my mom who simply nodded at me.
"That's why I grew so much and why I am out so late at night, Lee," Seth exclaimed. "And why I am so warm, its not a fever. We just run a higher temperature than normal."
"You guys are sick!" I shouted, feeling like everyone was ganging up on me.
"Okay Sam, she doesn't believe us!" Paul smiled and began stripping off his clothes. I quickly turned away cover my eyes. I heard a huge noise that sounded like bones cracking. I turned to see a huge wolf in Paul's place. "Oh my God." I said backing away.
"Damn Paul," Jacob stood up furiously, shaking slightly. "You couldn't have given her a second to adjust to this!"
"Jacob," Sam said sternly.
"No, Sam!" Jacob challenged. "I don't want her okay. So stop worrying. I am breaking this imprint. We should never have even told her." With that he stalked off towards the parking lot.
"Fuck you too!" I shouted after him, feeling a bit hurt. After my outburst reality set in again. I felt like I was going to be sick. "You are one of those?" I asked Seth, pointing at Paul.
"Yep," he said happily. I looked at my mom.
"Why are you all telling me this?"
"Jacob may not show it now, but he loves you," Billy said, softly. "You are his soul mate. The first time he saw you he imprinted on you, its sort of love at first sight."
"Imprinted," I nodded. "Great. Fantastic. You are all wolves." I looked at Emily's scarred face before I fell to the ground and fainted.
I woke up feeling incredible over heated. I open my eyes to see that I was not even in my own bed. For some reason I was at Billy's house. I felt warm hands on me, but somehow the touch felt wrong and I tried to move away.
"Lee?" I glanced up to see Sam directly above me, his hands cupping my face. "Oh thank God." I looked around to see all the shirtless men, including Jacob. My mom and Billy were there too. Sam still hadn't removed his hands and I could feel beads of sweat begin to form on my nose.
"Sam," I coughed out, pissed off he thought he could touch me. "You're too hot." I heard a growl from the corner where Jacob stood.
"Leah?" Sam asked confused.
"No, you moron," I sat up annoyed. "I mean your fucking hands are burning holes in my face. Give me some space to breath!" Sam quickly stood and walked toward the rest of the pack.
"Leah, honey are you alright?" my mom asked. Yeah mom, I am great. I just found out my brother and all the other people I grew up with turn into giant wolves as a hobby. I am just fucking dandy. I collapsed back down on the couch, feeling a major headache come on. Damn traditions!
