(A/N: Well, I'd just like to say thanks to NikkiRA for inspiring me to write this. I was reading some of her Sam/Leah stuff yesterday, and this idea came to me. I should stop the author's note before it gets longer than the story.)

Simple Addition

Even though Sam has always scolded the other wolves for it, he can't help but stare at Leah as she glides into wolf form.

He remembers the days before imprinting, when life was so simple, when one plus one always added up to two. When he phased for the first time, one plus one slowly added up to two and a half, and when he imprinted, one plus one became three.

But not always. Sometimes, when the universe wanted things to go your way, one plus one would still equal two.

As Sam stares at Leah, he wonders if now will be one of those times.

(A/N: In case the whole 'one plus one' thing didn't make sense to you, it's basically a way of saying that the universe was shifting out of order. I know one plus one doesn't actually ever add up to three. Reviews are love!)
