1Disclaimer- I don't own twilight series or the characters. Stephanie Meyer does. I added to the personalities of the characters. This is for fun and enjoyment.

A/N - This is an Edward and Leah fan fiction. And my second fan fiction! I didn't plan this when I wrote it of course. I have no problems with Edward with Bella. But I love Edward and it seemed right to put him with Leah. Bella will not be mentioned as much for various reasons. I should warn you Seth is kinda unique in this story. If you can't figure it out why then let me know. And I want to make this brief but I don't want my readers lost. Edward and Leah wont date straight off. It starts with her with Sam. Leah and Edward become friends at first. Oh and swearing and some abuse! it just talks about sam and her relationship. I promise it will get better bare with me.

Chapter one- I'm losing him

Leah- 17 years old

Seth- 12 years old

Sam is holding my hand on the way from picking me up from school. I love the feeling of his warm hand on my cold hand. My light blue jacket wasn't keeping me warm in the march coldness. I can't wait for summer my favorite time of year! Sam is my boyfriend going on three years now and I am madly in love with him. I pushed him into the wall of the nearest house putting my hands on his warm biceps. He leaned down kissing my lips and putting his hand on my lower back. I let my bag slid of my shoulder and hitting the pavement. I leaned my body against his body. I heard laughing behind me and I knew who it was from my younger brother, Seth.

"Sis, yuck! Sam, why Leah out of all the girls in La Push? Don't corrupt my sweet innocent sister!" He was laughing at his own pathetic joke.

"Haha Seth, don't make me get daddy!" His eyes went wide and his mouth shut closed.

He stuck his tongue out of his mouth and I took a rock that was beside Sam's feet. Throwing it at his bag not wanting to actually hurt him because I do love the annoying pest.

"Wait until you fall for someone Seth! I just hope I am not around to see your DNA kids running around causing mayhem."

"That was a horrible come back Leah! Dry sense of humor!" He said sticking his little pink tongue at me again.

Then he took his bag off and running into the freezing cold water. Sam took my bag and put it on his back. I took a hold of Sam's hand again and we were walking down the beach in silence.

"So are we going cliff diving?" I said softly kicking a rock across the wet sand. His face went red he was pissed and aggravated.

He let go of my hand and glaring into my brown eyes at my crazy question. He doesn't know my plans with Jake. We are the same age and I like hanging out with Jake. He considers my as one of his guy friends though. I took my light jacket off and I was wearing a white t-shirt and a red tank top on underneath. I ran into the water and I lift Seth up into the shallow water and throwing him into the air and he landed head first into the cold water. When he came up he had a popsicle grin on his face. We both started laughing at nothing.

I splashed him in the face and he was looking towards the shore. Before I could say anything or see what he was getting bug eyed at. I was being lifted up in the air. I let out a scream and then I felt the cold water sucking me in. I couldn't lift my body up in the deep end my phobia of drowning seeping into my thoughts as I felt light headed. Then I felt Sam grabbing my waist pulling me up and I took a deep breath when I hit the surface. Seth took my arm and helping me get to the surface.

"What the hell? You know I can't swim and have a phobia of drowning." I said getting my coat on.

"Yeah, you were there when she was struggling at swimming luckily dad was there though." Seth took his clothes off and stuffing them into his bag.

I started walking and Seth was running around in his spider man underwear. I couldn't help but laugh. Sam was no where to be seen when I turned around. Sighing in anger and wiping my wet cold face. I went into the house and got Seth a towel and filled up Chestnut's bowl. Chestnut was a chocolate lab and he is only 4 years old. He loves Seth the most and sleeps in his room the most. I went upstairs to change out of my wet clothes. Looking into Seth's room and regretting it. His wooden walls was covered in super hero pictures and his bed was perfectly made and clean. The only thing that is clean in his filthy room. Food and toys all over the floor his clothes in a huge pile in the middle of his floor. I saw him looking for something clean to wear as I went by.

"Get that cleaned up before mom gets home! And she will be checking your closet."

"She won't come in here. She won't make it out alive. CHESTNUT!" He said as Chestnut went in his room.

I went into my room which was clean and not so organized. My walls were white over the wood and pink trim. My carpet is white and plushy against my feet. A pink bed set and a oak desk covered in my drawings and past due date homework. I got a pair of sweats and a hoodie of Sam's. Then braiding my long black straight hair. My favorite actors and actresses were plastered on the wall and pictures of my family and Sam. Taking of the necklace my father made me on the desk. Sam came in wearing a red t-shirt and shorts. My mom was working and my father was fishing with Charlie and some other friends of his. So I locked my door and put my hands on his shoulders.

"I love you Sam." I said kissing his neck and he put his hands on my waist.

"I love you too Lee-Lee!" (A/N:I hate the nickname but that's what he called her.)

(A/N: Sorry I cant put the sexual scenes in because of the rate I set it on.)

I put on my clothes as I heard the downstairs door open. Unlocking my door and running downstairs and I saw my dad hanging up his fishing coat. My dad and Charlie came in from the mud room and holding a cooler most likely with fish in it. I put my arms around my dad and kissing his cheek. He held me tight and then letting me go he went into the kitchen.

"Where is Seth?" Dad asked as I got me and Sam a pepsi.

"I think he went to Jake's for the night." I said taking a big sip of my soda and throwing Sam his.

"Sammy are you staying for dinner?" Dad asked taking a beer out for him and Charlie.

"No, my mom has stuff for me to do." He didn't look good. He was sweating really bad and he had the soda touching his neck. My dad mumbled something to Charlie and then went to the den where they watch TV. I went into the living room and turning on a random show. It was Lie to Me and I loved Tim Roth guy. Smiling I put my head on Sam's chest.

"Babe, are you okay? You look sick." I said touching his forehead.

"Damn it Leah! You are not my mother. Watch this stupid show." He hit my hand away.

"This show isn't stupid and you know it! And what the hell is wrong with you?"

He pushed me off him and he slammed the screen door taking off. Putting on my old ugly boots and grabbing my peacoat I ran after him.

"Sam! Wait up!" I said screaming as loud as I can.

Finally catching up with him I took his arm and he froze. I almost fell but I was still holding onto his arm and breathing so loud. He was different I could see anger, fear and confusion enter his hazel eyes. I got in front of him wrapping my blue peacoat around me.

"Leah! GO!" His voice was like thunder and my heart was hurting for understanding for the both of us. I stood my ground I never back down from anyone.

He was now full of angry everything else was wiped clean from his face. I felt my tears about to fall from my russet skin. But I am going to put on my poker face. I stood as if his looks didn't bother me. Then he did something I never expected. He hit me hard across my face I hit the sandy beach and blood dipping from my face. Pain on my right cheek and nose. My hot salty tears falling from my face along with my blood. I couldn't look at him. So I got up and took my long black hair out and throw the rubber band at Sam's face. His hazel eyes met my brown eyes.

"Lee Lee, I am so sorry. Baby, you know I love you. You know I never would hit you." He said tears rimming his eyes.

"Fuck you! I can't believe you did this. My father is going to freak." Tears were still falling from my face as I tried to stop the blood.

Sam was keeping his distance. I know he didn't mean it and we fight a lot but he never hit me. There was something up with him that he can't control. He had real genuine hurt in his eyes. I took his hand and it felt like touching a stove.

"I love you. I am sorry. Good bye." He said and he walked away.

"I forgive you and love you!" I said loud and he went tense and kept walking.

When I got inside I snuck upstairs and tried to cover the wounds with make up but the bruise was swollen and was obvious. So moving my hair in front of my right side of my face. I went downstairs and of course Seth points it out. He pulls me into dad's den room and shut the door locking it.

"He hit you?" He asked mad and it was a rhetorical question.

"Seth, I am fine." He hit the wall. For a 12 year old he is protective and has anger problems. "He is not in the right state."

He left me standing into the dark den alone. I sat down on the couch and put my hands to my face and let the tears fall. Then finally picking myself up and not wanting to face my father and mom. I went outside to the beach and sat down. I saw a bunch of Sam's friend coming to me.

"Sam is gone. He left!" Said Jake. I got up and hoping that Jake is lying.

"WHAT!" Then everything went black as I fell into Jake's arms.
