So before I start this story, I want to give you all a run-down on the characters, as its not following the exact storyline of the Twilight Saga, there are SO many things different. So bare with me and please read this to get the info;
Leah Clearwater had changed into a 'shifter' once her father had passed, but before that, she had met a guy named Justin Carter. (There relationship will be more described in the story) But when Leah phased, she realized what happened when Sam had imprinted on Emily and the affect it had on her, so she promised herself -no matter what- that she wont do that to Justin and cause him that pain. Also, Jacob had left (Yes, he still had feelings for Bella) before Leah had turned, causing them never to have seen each other before.
So theres the low-down on the story. I hope it made sense to you all, and you love this.
Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters, aside from my OC character Justin. The other characters, sadly, belong to Stephanie Meyer. But I guess it's a good thing, because if ANY of those werewolves were mine… well…
Leah's POV
The light came streaming through the crack of my curtains and I let a groan escape my lips. I hated mornings, especially when it involved the day having to patrol around La Push because those stupid Leeches wont leave, causing other leeches to come and track them down.
I was about to get out of bed and do my morning routine when I felt an arm grab my waist and pull me back into their body. A small, goofy smile came to my lips and I turned around him.
"Morning baby…" I whispered, placing a kiss on his forehead and breathing in his scent. I loved this guy so much. Justin Carter was the most amazing man I have ever met.
"Morning Lee…" he breathed, he opened his eyes and let a smile approach his lips when he looked at me, his smile faulted for a while and he began to say "I think you need to go to a doctor. Your temperature is still high babe, it has been for a while…"
"Im fine Justin" I smiled, his concern for me only increased the amount of love I felt towards this man "LIke I said before, its in my genes. My family temperature runs higher than normal, Just like Seths … My Dad's used to as well…"
He merely nodded, but I knew he would still try and convince me to go to the doctors later on. Which I would only repeat the same thing to him.
"I need to get up. Im going to see my Dad before I have to go and see Sam and Emily…" I whispered, as his grip on me tightened.
"Okay. But I will come with you to see your Dad, I have to go and see my baby sister too…" he closed his eyes, and I knew he was thinking about his younger sister, who passed away a year ago in a car accident "Then I have to get to work"
I nodded and placed small kisses on him before getting up and making my way towards the shower. I watched as he turned around to face me, the smile still etched on his face.
"I love you Leah.."
"I love you too Justin. So much.." and with that said, I went into the bathroom and ran the water, letting my mind wander.
Justin and I had met at my fathers funeral. He had come to offer his condolences, as his father and my father had once been great friends. I had merely nodded at him and shook his hand that day.
It wasn't until about three months later when I found him again. He had been working in the local gas station when I walked in. He remembered who I was and took his break. We started talking and by then end of it he had asked to hang out some time. I was reluctant at first, in all honesty, I still wasn't over Sam but Justin was such a nice guy that I couldn't resist. I think he was a re-bound, who I had fallen totally and utterly in love within three months. I think I was the same with him also, he had been through a bad break up, maybe not as hard as mine, but it was still tough on him. We had helped each other get over the heartbreaks that were caused by two others. He was so gorgeous. His eyes captivated me, they were green and complimented his skin colour -whish is a tanned colour- so well. He is around about 6ft 2 and his muscles always amaze me, if I wouldn't have known better, he looked like he could fit into the wolf pack -well, the human side of things.
I had started phasing before I met Justin, I phased the day my father passed but I have never told Justin. Im not allowed to. He's not my imprint, so I cant. But I wish he knew, it would explain so much to him. Like how I cant come out some nights because I patrolling so much, or the fact that people always give me snide looks because I constantly hang out with a bunch of guys. He has never questioned me about it though, not once.
I had discovered that Sam had imprinted on Emily the first time I phased, it all hit me at once. I found it in myself to forgive Sam, he didn't mean to hurt me, but it still didn't lessen the hurt that I felt.
I also think another reason why I fell in love with Justin was because I knew he couldn't imprint on anyone and leave me. I knew there was a possibility of me imprinting, but I had made a promise to myself to not let Justin down the way Sam had. I would fight this imprint if it meant keeping Justin in my life.
I was shaken out of my thoughts by Justin banging on the door, I hadn't realized I had jumped in the shower, but I had. I quickly shut off the shower and wrapped a towel around me. I carefully got out and opened the door to find Justin sheepishly smiling at me.
"I don't want to rush you babe. But I really need to shower and get ready.."
I shrugged my shoulders and placed a kiss on his lips before letting him through.

"Hey Daddy…" I smiled, I ran my fingers over his head stone and watched as Justin went to talk to his sister, who was a fair way away from my father "I miss you. So much every day.. But I know youre watching us. I always wish you could watch us from here Dad. But I know you will be proud. Seth is an amazing protector Daddy, and he is so big. He's nearly the height of Paul. Which is crazy. But im so proud of him Dad, as I know you would be."
I glanced at Justin to see him rubbing his sisters head stone and I sat down beside my father "I sometimes wish I could tell him Dad, tell him about us. He doesn't say anything, but I know he gets worried when im out at night patrolling. I feel like im betraying him, but I know I have to keep it a secret. Why cant I imprint on him Dad? He is so good for me, I know you would love him. He loves fishing, and he takes me a lot, sometimes the Pack even tag along. Hell, they love Justin. The pack think the world of him, even Sam, but he still sticks to his guns and tells me that I cant tell him. Which I guess I understand. Jacob's not back yet. He's been gone over a year, I know he can hear us, because I can hear him sometimes too. I had a conversation with him once, well, I guess you cant call it a conversation, just s small chat. He really loved Bella, I mean, LOVED her Dad, the same way I loved Sam. But she couldn't pick him over that leech, which I guess I understand. I tried to tell him to get over it, but he ignored me. He's somewhere in Canada." I sighed before continuing;
"I bet you are wondering why I am telling you this. Well, I know Jacob was close to you, so I just thought I would share. Seth misses him like Crazy, and so do Embry and Quill, I feel so bad for them. Im pissed at Jake for leaving, but I know why he did. He left before your funeral, but he did tell me he was so sorry. I havent seen him since I phased…"
I glanced up and noticed that Justin was done talking to his sister and was making his way over to me with a small smile on his face. "He makes me so happy Dad, Justin does. I just wish you could have met him properly. Not just when he was a kid. Im finally Happy Dad. But not a day goes past where I don't miss you.. I love you Dad, I always have and I always will. Forever and Ever Papa…" I placed a kiss on his headstone and accepted a hand that was held out in front of me from Justin. He pulled me up and then glanced at my fathers Grave.
"Hi Harry. I promise to always take care of her… Until the day she wills me away, or the day I die.." he placed a kiss on my temple and I felt a tears escape my eyes.
Slolwy we made our way back to the car and then he dropped me off outside Emily and Sams. I gifted him a big smile and kissed him hard "Love you Justin…"
"I love you too Baby Girl…" He smiled before placing a kiss on my forehead. "Bye…"
I watched him drive off before I went into the house.
"Hey boys" I smiled as I saw the pack stuffing their faces with food. I then glanced up at Sam "Sorry im a little Late, I went to go and see my dad, and Justin went to see his sister."
"Its fine, now that we are all here, I would like to start this meeting?" He asked, we all nodded and I went and sat by my brother, Seth.
"Hey Baby Bro.." I whispered and placed a kiss on his cheek. He smiled at me and said Hello before placing a arm around me and puling me into a hug.
"Okay. So I had a brief meeting with the Cullens, well, with Edward. He said that there will be newborns attacking soon, so I want us to be ready. Alice, the girl with the visions, said that they should be here in a couple of months. Which doesn't give us much time to train, with partols and all.."
"I cant wait to kill those new blood suckers" Paul said, disgust and anger in his tone, and I couldn't help but nod my head. Okay, the Cullens weren't bad, but the Newborns, I hated them so much. More than anything.
"Down Paul.." Sam smiled, but I could tell that he had been thinking the same thing, just by the small smirk that appeared on his face.
"SO do we train with the Cullens? Or what?" Embry asked while glancing around the table at all the curious faces.
"I have yet to decide that. I wanted to talk to you all first before making any decisions like that, as I know most of you cant stand the Cullens. But it could be a possible yes.."
Quill spoke up "Okay guys, don't get mad at me, but I think we should. We are a man down, and I don't think Jacob will be back in time for the fight, so maybe we should get help from the Cullens, I mean… It will improve our chances. Even though we would probably take em on our own.."
"I don't like them, but I have to agree with good boy Quill here. It will increase our chances of winning" I smiled, I placed my hand on Quills shoulder, who had a look of excitement on his face.
"Yeah, plus, like Atera said, Jake isn't here, and he was our best fighter, so I think it would be a good thing, as it doesn't look like Jake will be back anytime soon." Jared smiled.
"Who said I wont be back anytime soon?" A voice came from the other side of the door. A smile had spread across each of our faces as the door opened and in walked Jacob with his head down, his hair messily cut, just covering his eyes. "Im back baby, and im ready to kick some-"
He stopped mid sentence as he looked up and his eyes locked with mine. It suddenly felt as if everyone in the room had disappeared and it was only me and Jacob standing there, looking at each other. I couldn't hear anything, or see anything but him. I felt the ground moving beneath me, almost as if Gravity wasn't doing its job properly. My legs were so close to giving out. My eyes stayed locked to Jacobs, as his were mine.
I kept staring at Jacob for what seemed like a few more minutes, then I snapped out of it once I heard gasps around the room. Jacobs eyes were still locked on mine, and it took a few minutes to realise what had happened.
I Imprinted. I Imprinted on Jacob Ephriam Black.
What did you think? Love it? Hate it? I want to continue this so bad, and I hope you all want me to as well. Hope you like it, and please don't forget to REVIEW! I love reading them. Blackwater is so adorable. Just saying (:
