Summary: Seth tells Leah about Jacob imprint. Leah makes a choice, so does Jacob.
- Leah?
- In the kitchen!
Seth walked in to the kitchen and found Leah washing the dishes.
- I got something to tell you…
- Well? I don´t have all day – Leah said. She turned and found a very worried Seth – What is it?
- Hmmm… Jacob… He went to the Cullen´s and Bella was in labor…
- Crap! He killed the thing and I spent my afternoon cleaning! That…
- Leah! – Seth walked near Leah and placed a hand on her shoulder – Jacob… Well… he imprinted… on Bella´s baby.
Leah looked at Seth and then ran upstairs. Seth heard Leah slamming the door of her room. Sobbing.
- I didn´t know that Leah and Jacob were… involved – Sue Clearwater said. Billy Black and Seth are with her in the local dinner.
- Me either – Billy said.
- Why is she so upset? She hasn´t talk to anybody in a week…
- Mom, Billy… I´m pretty sure Leah would kick my ass if she knew I´m telling you this… That´s why she will never know, right?
- Right! – Sue and Billy say at unison.
- They started to get along a few weeks ago… Leah went to Bella and… well, you know Leah. Jacob was upset. They fought. I don´t know all the details but what I do know, because I saw it in Jacob´s memories, is that Jacob told Leah that he was gonna try to be the man she needed him to be. He told her "As soon as this madness is over, you and I will have our chance".
- No wonder she is like this… Any news from Jacob? – Sue said
- He called yesterday… Apparently the child can talk already… I… I never thought something like this was possible…
- None of us did. I can´t imagine how Leah must feel…
- Leah? Honey? We are home! – Sue yelled.
- She is not going to answer – Seth said as she walked into the living room. To his surprise Leah was sitting on the couch, next to the phone.
- Resseme just called me – Leah said in a flat tone – She wants to be my friend.
- What did you said? – Seth asked sitting on the couch next to her.
- I´m leaving...
- What?- Sue yelled.
- I can´t… I…
- You want me to come with you? – Seth offered.
- I think we are making decisions without thinking them trough. Leah, honey… You don´t need to leave…
- But I do. Thank you Seth, but I already talk to aunt Selene in Washington. She is expecting me they day after tomorrow.
- Are you sure? I mean… You are my only daughter…
- I´ll miss you both. I just… I got to go.
- We´ll miss you too.
- You are telling me now that you called Leah a week ago? - Jacob asked.
- She was so nice to me. I asked her to be my friend and she said she would love to. Too bad she had to leave the state; otherwise she could come over and braid my hair…
- Wait… She left?
- Yes
- Nessie, I have to go.
- I´m leaving- Jacob said
-What? Why? - Bella asked
-Are you going after her? – Edward asked
Sue? Seth? – Jacob yelled
Jacob? – Seth asked as he opened the front door
Seth… -
Jacob felt a giant pressure on his heart. All he could see was black.
Jacob woke up.
- About time Black!
- Leah?
Leah was sitting next to him. They were at his house. Leah looked at him. She wasn´t smiling.
- The Cullens are here – she said
- You are back – he said
- They child asks for you – she said
- I don´t care… Leah?
Jacob reaches for Leah´s hand. She looks into his eyes. She is looking for something.
- Is it really broken? – she asked
- I made my choice – he said
- Do you want to see them? The Cullens?
- I don´t want to, but I guess I have to
- I´ll send them in…
- Wait!
- What? Are you in pain?
- No… I´m sorry
- What for?
- I let you down…
- It wasn´t your fault…
- Yes, it was. I had to learn about you hurting to realize that I had to fight it. I should have fought it since the beginning.
- Is it really broken? – she asked again
- Leah?
- In the kitchen!
Seth walks in to the kitchen and finds Leah washing the dishes. He remembers that night a few months ago, only this time Jacob is putting the dishes on the higher shelves.
An afternoon of cleaning? – Seth asks
Leah and Jacob burst into laughter.
- Do I want to know?
- I wouldn´t use the bathroom upstairs if I were you! – Leah says as she grabs Jacob´s hand.
They both run upstairs. Seth hears them slamming the door of her room. Giggling.
Please be kind. English is not my first language and I know I have some grammar mistakes in this story.
This is my first Blackwater fic. I guess you could say I´m into angst relationships.
