READ!; In this, Jacob and Leah are dating, but that's not what the story revolves around. This isn't a sequel to my last fanfic. Jacob was never in love with Bella, but they are still best friends.

My boyfriend Jake and I were watching a movie. We were free to show all the affection we wanted since my mom was out on a date with Charlie Swan. They had been dating for about a year, and it was getting pretty serious. It would have been the perfect night, if my brother wasn't home.

Jake leaned in and kissed me at the end of the movie. Of course, that's when my brother decides to come down stairs.

"Ew. You guys are nasty." He said.

"SETH!" I yelled.

"What, you've never seen people kissing before, Seth?" Jake teased.

"Yeah, I have" Seth replied, "But it's disgusting because its my sister."

"Well your sister is a very good kisser," Jake laughed.

Seth pretended to throw up.

He started to kiss me again, and once again, we were interrupted. My mom and Charlie walked in. Fate hated me.

"Hey you lovebirds." My mom said as she hung up her coat.

"Ugh!" I said, pulling away from Jake. "Mom!"

She laughed.

"Sorry. But I thought you'd like to hear the news."

I sighed. "Go for it."

Seth looked at me, probably wondering what was going on.

My mom looked at Charlie. He started talking.

"I love your mother very much." Now I should be the one pretending to throw up, I thought. "And that's why we decided that we should…be married."

He was smiling ear to ear. Oh my god. No. No. No!

I blurted out the first thing that came to mind.

"Does that mean that Bella and I will be….Stepsisters?!"

"Yes, it will!" My mom said cheerfully. She thought that I was happy about that.

I screamed at the top of my lungs. I stormed up the stairs and into my room, slamming the door. I didn't want to talk to anyone. Except for Jake. That's why I was glad when it was him knocking on my door three minutes later, not my mom-or worse, Charlie or Seth.

"It's me." He said, from the other side of the door.

"Come in." I muffled ,my head buried in my pillow.

"Your mom wants to know if she can come talk to you."

"No." I said. "I only want to talk to you."

"Well, I'm here, Leah. But I think you should try talking to your mom. She just wants to be happy. And I think you could get over your differences with Bella for her to be happy."

"Easy for you to say, Jake. She's your best friend. I hate her with a passion. But, even with that, this is deeper than just being related to… Bella. This is about…my dad." I told him.

"Leah. Your mom loved your dad, and you know that. She's not replacing him." He said softly. I was trapped! I knew Seth was happy about this. Obviously my mom was. Even my boyfriend! I couldn't believe this! Tears started coming down.

Jake put his arm around me. I shook it off. "Go, Jacob. I want to be alone." I whispered.

He nodded. He went to the door. "Love you, Leah. Consider your mom, too." And then he left. I was alone in the darkness of my room. All night I thought about our conversation. As much as I hated to admit it, he was right. My mom deserved to be happy. It was going to be so hard, but in the morning I would tell her that I supported her decision. But I wouldn't be enthusiastic about it.

The next morning, when I went downstairs, my mom was making pancakes.

"Good, morning, honey. I want to talk to you. You and Seth come first, and if you don't want Charlie and I-"

It was very tempting...no. I couldn't.

"No, mom." I innteruppted. "I thought about it. Alot. And I want you guys to get married. So...when are we picking out the bridesmaids dresses?" I tried my absoloute hardest to force a smile. She bought it, and hugged me.

"Oh, Leah, thanks so much. But actually, Charlie and I were talking. Were not going to have a wedding. We'll just sign legal papers saying that were officially married."

I knew thats really not what she wanted, but she was lucky I even gave in. I was going to stop with the kindness there. Legal papers were fine with me.

"Oh. Well...once you get married, where are we moving? Or them?"

"They'll be moving on the reservation with us. But we'll be moving into a bigger house on the other side of the reservation."

I was a little dissapointed, I had wanted to stay in our house. Well, atleast we were staying on the reservation.

"And you already bought the house?" I asked.

She nodded.

"Without even telling me...you bought. A. House."

"Leah, we were waiting for the right time to tell you.

"To tell me? Are you saying everyone else already knew?"

She sighed. "We told Seth two weeks ago."

I closed my eyes, trying to fight the urge to phase.

"And Bella?" I asked.

She took a few seconds to respond.

"We told her on the same day as Seth."

I had worked to hard to agree to the marriage to lose my cool now.

"Why did you tell them before me?"

"Leah, I knew this would be a toucy subject for you. I just needed some time to build up to it."

"Oh." I said calmly. Well, she was right. "Well I can't wait to see the house."

Her smile was back. "We can start moving our stuff in next week."

"Great." I said.

Just great.
