Who am I?
I'm a girl that just recently graduated from Washington State. With a degree of Criminal Investigation under my belt. I wasn't able to walk or stand at my graduation because I was too busy giving birth to my two very adorable boys. There daddy wasn't able to make it as well since he was there to help me through the labor pains, I'm pretty sure I broke a few of his bones in his hands.
Who am I?
I am a girl that just lost her boyfriend of 5 years thanks to a drive by shooting. Here we are sitting in our nice little Condo up in Seattle, both of the boys were in there room fast asleep and we were watching some T.V. and the next thing I hear is a car driving fast down the street and I hear, POP POP POP. I got up from where I was sitting at on my couch and went to the window. I got a glimpse of the license plate. RY75T that's all I got. As I stepped away from the window and went to sit down on my boyfriend lap I saw the he wasn't responding, I thought he might have went to sleep that fast, he normally does. But as I lift up his chin I see blood dripping from his mouth. I quickly got up off his lap and went to find a phone. The Emergency squad got there in a matter of seconds, and when they left he had already died.
So who am I?
Hi, my name is Laylah Childs, and I'm on my way back home with my twin brothers and my mom and dad. Welcome to La Push, I haven't seen that sign in so long it not funny, I really haven't been home, it not that I hated it here when I was growing up, I loved it here, but I was just way to busy with school work to come back home. I haven't seen my brothers, my mom and my dad since I left, yes Richard and I used to come here for thanksgiving or Christmas. (Richard is the boyfriend that died) But that was all we never spent the night here. So yes I totally miss my family, hopefully all my friends I had here will welcome me with open arms. My family knows what happened and they know we have kids together; they haven't seen the boys at all this will be there first time meeting the boys.
So here I am pulling in front of my parents' home, it hasn't changed it still one of the biggest house in La Push you couldn't miss it big and blue with a bright yellow door. I parked my Land Rover LR4 in the drive way. I looked in the back at my boys. "Were home boys" I told them. As I was trying to get out my door I see my, what I thought was little brother come out the house. Gezze he got huge over the 5 years I've been away. Collin quickly came over and opened my door and dragged me out of the car, he gave me a bone crushing hug that I missed so much he always did that.
"Hi Collin how are you" I asked him still in the bone crushing hug.
"I miss you Lay" he said Lay is the nickname him and Brady called me since they were little kids, they couldn't really pronounce my name right so they call me Lay.
"Collin when did you get so big, what is mom feeding you"
"Hey I'm a growing boy thank you" I shook my head, Collin looked every year of 21 and up and he's only 17. Soon Brady came out and wrapped me up in another bone crushing hug. I needed this so much, I mean after Richard died I couldn't see myself going back to what happened, but being here with my family I can push that all behind me. My mom and dad came out as well and was standing next to Collin as Brady still had me in the hug. I tried to push him off of me but it wasn't working not in the slightest.
"Brady let go of Lay" my dad said in his husky voice. I looked over at him mouthing thank you. Brady finally let go of me after a couple of more minutes. I looked at my parents and I swear I could have felt myself start to cry. My mom quickly pulled me into a hug, my mom was my best friend I told her everything.
"Shhh honey it's ok I know it hurts" I hurts so bad to have they guy that I thought I will spend the rest of my life with end up dying in our house, it was too hard, I left everything there all except mine and the boys clothes, I shipped his clothes to good will. I asked his mom and see if she might have wanted the clothes and she told me no. Me and his mom got along pretty well I called her my future mother in law, that's how serious it was. My mom whipped my jet black hair that had burgundy highlights in my hair aside. My hair came down to the middle of my back, I haven't done anything to it I haven't curled it since Richard died, there was no point. I pulled back and inhaled another sharp breath. I looked at my dad and he quickly walked up to me and engrossed me with a hug. I really started in his arms. My dad was the best thing that happened to me other than my little boys. MY dad brushed my hair down my back and patted my back.
"Daddy it hurts so much" I cried into his chest.
"Shh…. Princess I know, I know" how would I put this I would have to say being a daddy's girl was and understatement. I got anything I wanted from my dad and my mom; they're the ones that brought me the Land Rover. I continued to cry into his chest. He kept trying to calm me down. I pulled away of 20 minutes of crying.
"Relax princess" I nodded my head as I walked over to my Land Rover and opened the door to get my sons out. I placed Xavier on the ground as I went back in to get Javon. My brothers quickly came over and got there nephews, and took them out of the heat that was in early July. My mom walked ahead of me as my dad waited until I walked over to him and place his hand on my back. I walked into the house and sat down on the very familiar couch. It was a black leather couch. I sat down by my two little brothers. I reached over Brady and pulled out Xavier. I picked him up and straighten out his red plaid overalls with a red shirt underneath and his overalls, I gave Xavier to Brady as I kissed him on his check, I then reach over Collin and picked up Javon and straighten out his blue overalls with his white undershirt, I gave his a check also before sending him over to his uncle.
"How old are they again Lay" my dad asked. I sat back on the couch and took in a deep breath. "There only 4 months old" I told my dad. Yea the kids don't even know there dad how great is that. I shook my head as I let the couch intake me.
"Lay I know you're sleepy why don't you go up to your room and take a nap" I shook my head, every time I close my eyes I see him in the couch with blood dripping down his mouth. I haven't slept since he died. "No mom I can't" I said as I shook my head once again.
"Lay what do you mean you can't" I took in a sharp breath and let it go slowly trying to figure out the words to say.
"Mom when I close my eyes I see the scene over and over again I see blood dripping out of his mouth mom I can't go to sleep like that" she nodded her head as she walked over to me and hugged me.
"When was the last time you went to sleep" I looked at her than at my brothers, than at my dad my eyes landed on my twins.
"I haven't slept since he died" I said. She shook her head and pulled me up off the couch. "Honey that's not good" I nodded my head I know it wasn't good it's been a week since he got shoot. "I know mom but how can I sleep when the man that I thought I was going to spend the rest of my night with is no longer taking up the space next to me" I said.
"Oh, honey" she said as she pulled me into another hug, I didn't mind the hugs not one bit I need the hugs. Richard has always told me that if something ever happened to him he wanted his body given to science. But I couldn't do that, so I had no other choice than to cremate him he always told me that he didn't want to be in a casket in dirt rotting away. So where is he, he's on the bottom of the ocean floor. Richard love to boat, his parent brought him a boat once he graduated, so I gave the boat back to his parents and everything its already going to be hard to forget about him already, but to put a big boat in the case of it was even worst.
"Princess" my dad said as he walked into the kitchen. I looked over at him. "Yes daddy"
"Why don't you go hang out with some of your old friends, I'm pretty sure there be glad to see you" I shook my head I don't know if I was ready for that yet.
"I don't know if I'm ready and plus who would watch the boys"
"Well what are me and your dad here for, the boys have to go out will quick" my mom said. I nodded my head. I walked into the living room and kissed my boys on their forehead. I picked up my black swing pack Coach Purse and grabbed my keys off the coffee table. Something hit me as I walked out the door, I don't know where any of my friends lived at anymore and if they still lived here in La Push. I walked back into the house.
"Do they still live where they were before" I asked.
"Yes honey but most of them are probably over Sam's house" I nodded my head as I walked out the door. I wonder if Sam and Leah ever got married, they were attached to the hip when Lean and I graduated. I walked down the several house to get to Sam's cute little yellow cottage that he loved so much, he got the house for Leah for when she graduated from high school. My best friend I had during high school was Paul Meraz. I was able to confine in him over stupid stuff as like what I should wear on my first date. Paul and I has been friend since 3rd grade when he put a worm down my short.
I got to the cute little yellow cottage and walked up the stairs. I started getting butterflies in my stomach I haven't seen them in 5 years. Would they still remember me. My fist made contact to the door.
"Em could you get the door please" I heard a man say, I didn't recognize that voice at all, I heard soft foot falls to the door, before it was open up to a woman, that I didn't remember. She looked alike Leah, but I knew that wasn't Leah in the slightest. This woman was taller than little Leah. Also this woman had 3 distinctive scars going diagonal across her face. But she was still very pretty.
"Hi come on in" I nodded my head, and walked into the cute little house. I stood in the door way. I looked around the house trying to remember how Leah wanted her house.
"Babe who is it" I heard that voice that was once again very unfamiliar. The man walked out what I except was the kitchen. He was very huge man with ripples all over his torso, this guy was buff I swear I mean like muscles to die for.
"No way" the guy yelled as he walked over to me. I'm still looking at him like I'm crazy.
"Lay Lay" he said as he picked me up and twirled me around. Only three people called me Lay Lay and that was Sam, Leah and Paul. I looked at him one more time and still couldn't place it. Sam was tall and lanky and is face wasn't squared with a masculine jawline that just wasn't him.
"Lay Lay it's me Sam" I shook my head there is no way in Hell that was Sam Ulley. "There is no way that you're the Sam Ulley I remember" I said. He quickly placed me down on the floor.
"I can prove it" I looked at him as if he had a horn coming out of his head. "Prove it then" I said.
"Well let's see you hate birds and Leah was your out time best friend" I looked at him again, and still shook my head.
"What in the world is going on" I heard a female voice which I knew aww to well. I quickly looked over "Sam's" shoulder and saw my best friend walk out of the kitchen.
"Lee Lee" I yelled I moved past the guys that said he was Sam and ran up to her and gave her a hug. Leah looked the same all except her hair was shorter. Her eyes went wide as I ran over to her. She wrapped her arms around me and pushed me back.
"What are you doing here Lay Lay" I took in a breath.
"Well it's a long story" I said as I gave her yet another hug. He jumped around in a circle saying Yay, Yay, Yay; I missed my best friend so much.
"Leah so how is marriage life treating you" I said. She looked at me like I was crazy.
"What married life Lay?"
"The married life with you and Sam" she looked over my shoulder and huffed. I looked back and shook my head.
"I don't know why don't you ask Sam" I stared at her confused.
"What are you talking about" she looked at me and turned me back around to the couple that was hugging up on each other. The guy had his arm wrapped around the girl with the scared face.
"How is marriage life treating you Sam" Leah asked the guy that twirled me around. I looked at Leah.
"Leah is that Sam" she nodded her head. I shook my head; there is no way that he changed over 5 year's right. "Sam who is the girl you're all hugged up on" he looked down at the girl then back to me and Leah.
"It's complicated Lay, some things happened and I had to break up with Leah" He had to break up with Leah. "What do you mean you HAD to break up with Leah, you guys were supposed to be getting married, THIS YELLOW COTTAGE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HER'S" he looked down at the floor. "I know that Lay DAMN, some things happened it was my only option, but I wouldn't change what happened" did he just said he wouldn't change what happened, he broke up with Leah probably because he found a new girl that is so weak.
"So you tell me you broke up with Leah because you found a new girl, that is so WEAK SAM" I yelled the last part. I saw him start to shake. I shook my head.
"Emily" Leah yelled the girl quickly walked over to Leah apparently the girl he left Leah for name is Emily.
"You don't know a DAMN THING LAY, YOU'VE BEEN GONE FOR 5 FUCKING YEAR LAY 5" he yelled at me. His body image started to blur if that was possible.
"Man Sam whatever just because I haven't been here for 5 years doesn't mean you can GO BREAK HER HEART SAM" I yelled back. I blinked my eyes once and when I opened my eyes I saw a huge black wolf staring at me. The next thing I saw was black.
Sam's POV
How is she going to walk into my house and start yelling at me, saying that I left Leah, like I wanted to leave the love of my life so I thought that's who she was going to be. I quickly ran out the house and into the woods.
"Sam honey please come back" I hear Emily yell, I just couldn't go back not yet at least there was so much built of frustration I had toward Laylah it wasn't funny, I wanted to ring her neck. She doesn't know what happened after she left, so many things happened.
I was so furious with my mom that night for what reason I don't know, my mom pissed me off so bad that I phased right there in the house. I went AWAL if a wolf can go AWAL. I was in the woods think for weeks I missed Leah's graduation, and when I came back to being myself, I went to go see Leah and tell her that I was sorry, but as I waited there on her porch the door opened and my whole life changed in a matter of seconds. I didn't want to imprint on Leah's cousin Emily I loved Leah I tried to fight the imprint I tried to stay away from Emily but I couldn't, and I got so pissed off that I phased in front of Emily and gave her the three distinctive scars on her face and her arms.
"Bro why are you think about that for" Paul asked. I shook my big furry head trying to calm myself down. I replayed the scene the just happened a couple of minutes ago.
"Lay Lay is back" I nodded my head. "Dude you ok" I nodded my head again. I quickly went back home and waited at the back steps to have Emily give me a change of clothes.
"Here Sammy" she said as she walked out the door with some of my basketball shorts. I quickly phased right there in my back yard and pulled up my shorts. Paul walked out the woods and patted me on my back.
"You sure you ok" I nodded my head. "Yea she just pissed me off dude"
"You know that how she rolls" Paul informed me.
We walked into the house and I went to give Emily a kiss.
"I'm sorry for phasing so close to you Babe" she shook her head as she retreated back to the living room. I followed her as Paul followed me in the living room, Emily went to go sit next to Leah, I looked down on the couch and saw that Lay must have passed out when I turned wolf. Lay started to come back; she looked up at me and shook her head. She then sat straight up and looked around at where she was. Paul went to go sit on the coffee table in front of Lay. She looked him up and down and once there eyes meet, I knew that he just imprinted on his best friend since the 3rd grade.
Paul's POV
I can't believe that Lay Lay is back and nobody told us. I'm going to have to get with her little brothers. As I walked into Sam's and Emily's house and into the living room I see a very familiar Laylah laying on the couch. She hasn't changed a bit, her hair was still the same length, and the only thing is that she got purple streaks in her hair. She was still supper short and very petite. She was still the girl I had a crush on sine the first time I meet her and put a worm down her shirt in the 3rd grade. She came to and I quickly walk over to the coffee table and sat down in front of her as she sat back on the couch. I looked her over once again and saw that she was wearing a blue and brown plaid sleeveless shirt with white shorts with some whit boat shoes. My eyes finally locked with the ones I've been crushing on. And that's when it happened. I imprinted on my best friend. She got up of the couch and hugged me.
"Oh my GOD I miss you so much Paul" she said as she started crying. I looked at Leah and she shrugged her shoulders. I rubbed her back in soothing circles. She pulled away and looked at me once again.
"Paul I miss you so much" she continued crying. "I miss you to Lay Lay but why are you crying" she pulled away and whipped her nose with her forearm. She looked back and saw Sam she flinched and got up and sat next to me. I wrapped my arm around her shoulder and hugged her to my body.
"How did you turn into a wolf Sam" she asked Sam. He took in sharp breath and walked over to sit in front of her.
"Lay you know about the Legends" she nodded her head. "There true Lay everything, how we turned in big wolves and chase down vampires when they come on our land" she looked up at me and I nodded my head. "Pauly are you a wolf to?" I nodded my head. "Are you scared" she shook her head.
"No I'm not scared I'm just a little shaking up about his who are all wolves" she asked. I looked into her deep gray eyes. "Leah, your brothers, Jake, Quil, Embry, Seth and Jared" I told her. She looked at Leah. Leah nodded her head. She quickly got up and walked over to Leah and hugged her.
"Is everything about the Legends true" she asked we all nodded our heads.
"Yes, everything is true Lay" Sam told her. "Sam did you imprint on Emily" he swallowed the imaginary lump in his throat and nodded his head.
"I'm sorry for going down your throat Sam I know you couldn't help that" Sam nodded his head she then turned to Leah. "…. Leah I'm truly sorry" she said as she walked back over and gave her a hug.
"I got over it quickly. I found my imprint and he's is so much sexier that Sam" she laughed as she hugged her again. "You have to tell me about him someday Lee" she nodded her head. She then looked at me. "Pauly have you imprinted" I nodded my head, her face quickly dropped. "Do I know her?" I nodded my head. "Please don't tell me it's Leah" I shook my head. "Well than who is she"
"She is you" I told her. She looked at me and took in a sharp breath. "Pauly I don't think…." She stopped. ".. I don't think I'm ready for another relationship, I just got out of one and I'm just not there yet, and plus I got some baggage that I don't think you can handle as of right know" I shook my head.
"I can handle any kind of baggage you got Lay, but tell me one thing was this ex of yours abusive" she shook her head. She sat back by me and hugged me around the waist.
"Ok you guys know I went to college and I meet someone there and I thought I was going to spend my life with him" she said tears staring to come down her face, I quickly whipped her tears away. "Shhh it ok Lay what happened" I asked her. She looked down at the floor and whipped her own tears. "Well everything went down a week ago. We were sitting in our condo in Seattle when there was drive by shooting and he got shot in the back of the head and died instantly." She said still whipping tears away. "My heart still is attached to him Pauly we've been together for 5 years I don't think I can just push him away, and plus this is where my baggage come in at" we all nodded our heads.
"Lay if this is too hard for you, you don't have to finish" she shook her head.
"No I need to finish this" she said tears still running down her face. "… It's really hard for me to forget about him because they look so much like him" she said, who is they.
"Lay who they" Sam asked as he place his hands on her knees.
"They are mine and his sons"
