Chapter 1: More than a game

(This whole story takes place after Breaking Dawn. Renesmee ran away with Nahuel)

Leah's POV

Come on Jake is that the best you can do!

I was flying through the forest with Jacob right on my tail. We were racing which obviously meant he would lose considering the fact I am the fastest wolf in both of the packs. I'm even faster than the vamps. I suppose I race just to embarrass the slow pokes.

I wouldn't be so sure of that Lee. Jake said replying to my thoughts.

Just then out of nowhere I saw a huge russet wolf speed past me.

Oh hell no!

I was not going to lose to Jacob in a race, especially after what I just said.

I pushed my legs faster and felt myself moving so fast that I almost floated above the ground. Jake didn't see me coming until I was passing him. He stared at me wide eyed surprised at my sudden appearance. With that I was gone.

Hi loser. Bye loser.

I quickly crossed the place we decided was our finish line.

Yes! I win… again.

Jacob crossed it a couple seconds later.

Yeah yeah, you won. But I almost had you.

Uh huh you did for a minute there. But I beat you.

You wouldn't have if I was paying attention.

What ever makes you happy almighty Alpha.

Come on let's phase back Lee. He rolled his eyes.

We both phased. I phased behind a tree.

" You know if I really wanted to see your body I could just come back there."

I could here the smirk in his voice.

" You wouldn't dare."

At that moment I walked from behind the tree wearing my navy cotton shorts and a white wife beater with my hair in a high ponytail. When I joined Jake's pack he said I didn't have to cut my hair so it now reached the middle of my back.

" Yes actually, I would. I'm not sure you'd want to do that though, considering I probably won't stop thinking about it and the image will be etched into all of the guys' heads the next time I phase." He smirked.

He was standing about 3 feet from me wearing some black basket ball shorts. Leaving his smoking hot, 8 pack abs exposed. I'm really tempted to touch them but I restrain myself.

" I really wouldn't care Jake."

" Oh really? So you'd be okay with Quil going around bragging about how he saw you naked. That's good to know. I'll keep that in mind next time I see him." Jake was looking at me with a devious and sarcastic smile on his face. Jackass.

" You didn't even see me naked." I countered.

" Not that time." He said quickly and started walking towards the Cullen's mansion which was now in sight. I hadn't even realized we had been walking.

" I heard that you asshole!" I yelled to Jake while laughing.

" So I'm not afraid of you Lee. You are too short for me to fear!" And with that he started running because he knew he was in trouble.

The guys always teased me about my height and my size. I mean yeah I had grown a lot but because I am a female it worked differently with me. I grew from 5'3" to 5'7" and I went from being a size 4 to being a size 7. I was by no means fat. Anyone could tell you that. Mostly the guys because of their extreme perverseness. I was curvy and thick but muscular. Not the gross body builder muscular either I was just very toned and lean. I can't lie and say I didn't like the change I mean my body was always awesome but now it was ridonkulous. Even I had to admit. But even though that was so I still refuse to get teased because I am normal height and they are freakishly tall.

I chased Jacob into the Cullen's front lawn. Where I finally tackled him and did what only I could do to Jake… tickled him. He tried to hold back but he soon busted out into heaps of laughter.

" Oka- O- Okay Lee you win! Quit it! I am sorry!"

" Yeah I thought so. The next time you say that you and I will end being the same height." I said in playful tone.

I stopped tickling him and move to get up but Jake uses this as an opportunity to flip us over. Thus trapping me on the bottom while he straddles me.

" I guess we'll have to cross that bridge when we come to it." Jake said laughing and shrugging his shoulders. I punched him in the arm. He faked being hurt. Then as I should've expected … he starts tickling me.

" Get your fat ass off of me Jake!" I say laughing.

" Gasp! Fat? Lee now you're just being mean." And he begins to tickle me harder.

" St- s- STOP! PLLEASE JAKE!" I laugh gasping for air.

"Okay. I'll stop."

"Thank you. Now get off me."

" Umm, no." He says as his hands frame my face and he leans closer.

" You're a jerk." I said a little breathless with a smile on my face actually enjoying the feel of him on top of me.

" I'm just kidding Leah. You know you're drop dead gorgeous." His beautiful chocolate eyes were boring into mine.

I was speechless. Just looking into those endless pools of chocolate was enough to take away every word in my vocabulary except:

" Thanks Jake." I knew I had to be blushing wildly. I could practically feel my face changing color.

" Your welcome." He said with a small smile on his face. " You know red is a good color on you Lee." Now he had that full on huge smile plastered across his face.

"Shut up." I said quickly and we started toward the door of the Cullen mansion.
