(I do not own Twilight or any of its characters. Except mine! heehee)
Hot mess is a Leah Clearwater, Jacob Black story. What if events in the story changed? What if Jacob Black fell in love like a normal Teenager? (Well any normal teenager, who also happened to be a werewolf!) Bella and Edward would still get married, Bella would still become a vampire, (But before she has the chance to fall pregnant with Renesmee.) The Cullen's would still live and fight side by side with the werewolves; new werewolves would join the pack (run by Alpha Sam) Imprinting on their 'true loves', Along with a few new faces, from Leah's college in England. What if? (I have always pictured Leah looking like Ashley Tisdale, and got a lot of my inspiration for this fan fiction from her music.)
Chapter one
Seth POV
It was a normal Saturday afternoon in La Push. Quil, Embry, Jacob, and I had just finished running patrol, handing the evening duty over to Jared, Paul, and Sam our Alpha. It was tonight that Sam would be teaching our newest members of our pack Collin and Brady how to patrol, fight and how to control their thoughts. We lay in our human forms under the dusky evening sky, watching the sun set. It was calm and peaceful; the sound of the waves clashing against the shore could be heard in the distance.
"I'm going to get going guys" I said standing up and brushing the dirt of the back of my shorts. They all looked at me with puzzled looks on their faces "Where's the fire Seth?" Embry said throwing a rock at Quil's head "ouch" "yeah man" Jacob said getting to his feet and stretching out his muscles. "I just want to get home and get cleaned up. Were going out for dinner tonight" Quil's eyes almost leaped out of his head with the idea of food. "Oh yeah, and what's so special about tonight that you have to get all dressed up fancy like?" Quil mimicked a country farmer as he spoke. I rolled my eyes at him, I couldn't believe they had forgotten, and how stupid are these guys? It's all I've been talking about for a week. "Leah gets back home tonight" it was like someone turned on the light switch as they all remembered at the same time. "Of course, Leah's home how could I forget? That's tonight?" Jacob asked his face plastered with a huge smile, Embry and Quil sported the same grin. What had gotten into these guys? It was times like this that I was glad that I would never get any older than fifteen, and turn into a hormone crazed, knuckle head seventeen plus year old, well as long as I kept phasing.
We reached my house in good time; I was almost jogging to keep up with the other guys. Why were they in such a rush? I opened the front door using the key my mum kept hidden for us under the matt, after losing the first five; she realized it just wasn't sensible for a wolf to carry a key. "I'm home" "Seth" I was greeted by Leah's squeals as she ran over to me and grabbed me in a bear hug. I hugged her close to me, being careful not to crush her with my werewolf strength. She shuddered as the heat from my body hit her cool skin, and let out a little sob "Oh Seth, how I wish I was seeing you under happier circumstances" she hugged tight to me. I had almost forgotten about Jacob, Embry and Quil standing in the doorway behind me, and I was sure Leah hadn't seen them or she wouldn't be showing her true feelings right now. "Hey sweetie, boys" my mum greeted walking down the stairs. "Could someone please close the door, we don't all have the ability to have the body heat of a furnace when it's in the minuses outside" she smiled warmly meaning no offence, flipping the kettle on to boil. Leah pulled herself away from me and wiped her face dry, looking a little ashamed as Jacob, Quil and Embry stared at her, their mouths hanging open. Seriously what was wrong with these three today? "Hey Leah" Embry said staring her straight in the eyes and hugging her tight. "H-Hey Embry" realising she couldn't breathe he let her go. "Shoot" he muttered to himself. "Hey Leah" Quil smiled and hugged her, not as tight as Embry but tight enough "Hey Quil, wow you guys are strong" she rubbed her back easing the pre bruise "Darn it" Quil sulked back to stand next to Embry. I looked at them both puzzled. "Hey Lee" Jacob smiled warmly and pulled her into a tight hug, but gentle enough not to do any more damage to her. "Jake you're hurting her" I rushed over to Leah who had started to cry again. Jacob let her go at once and stared at her apologetically "I'm so Sorry Leah I didn't mean too, I just don't know my own…" he was cut off by Leah "You didn't hurt me Jacob *sniffs* your just all being so nice to me" "Leah" I grabbed her close to me, I wasn't used to seeing her so thrall and weak. I held back the tears I felt forming, they would be better saved until I was alone.
Jacobs POV
We all rushed to the Clearwater house, afraid that we would miss the one thing that we all wanted to see so desperately, Leah Clearwater. Embry, Quil and I had a huge crush on Leah when we were at school, we'd follow her around La push spying on her as she shopped with her friends. We were all jealous of Sam of course, for being the guy to win her heart. However Sam dating Leah only meant that we saw her more, she actually started going to the Quileute fundraisers, meetings and barbeques, so we couldn't complain too much. Then the jealousy turned to hatred when Sam broke Leah's heart after imprinting on her second cousin Emily. Leah couldn't stand to be around Sam or Emily, and decided to leave La push. She dropped out of college and enrolled in a veterinary school in London England. "It's time for my new start" she said hugging me before she left. I hated how Sam didn't even care that she was leaving the country to get away from him, leaving her family and me behind. That was a year and a half ago, and now she was back.
We waited impatiently for Seth to open the door; he fumbled with the key, his hands shaking. The door opened and the heat from the house hit us all, it was nowhere near as hot as our body temperatures but it was a lot warmer than the cold winter air outside, which had been racing around us all day. The Clearwater house smelt different than normal, it smelt like Cinnamon and pine. What was that other scent? Strawberry?, "Seth" my trail of thought was lost by a high pitched squeal. I turned my attention towards Seth; there she was in his arms. She seemed smaller than I remember, but maybe that's because we're all a lot bigger now. Her slender frame was hidden beneath a heavy white wool jumper and a pair of pale blue skinny jeans. Her long brunette curls hung down her back and moved with every movement her body made. "Oh Seth, how I wish I was seeing you under happier circumstances" Leah sobbed into Seth's Arms, Leah Clearwater was crying. It was the first time any of us had witnessed such a thing. Leah had always been so strong, even when Sam had broken the news of his imprinting at the campfire in front of everyone; I guess she didn't care anymore. She was hurt, she must have missed her family terribly and she was mourning the loss of her father. "Hey sweetie, boys" Sue Clearwater smiled as she walked down the stairs. "Could someone please close the door, we don't all have the ability to have the body heat of a furnace when it's in the minuses outside" Embry, Quil and I shuffled nervously into the house closing the door behind us. I could see the Christmas tree in the lounge, lit up in all its glory. That explains the pine smell. Wow I stared mouth open like a dummy at Leah, she was now standing away from Seth, wiping her face dry, her hazel eyes were red and puffy from all the crying, but she was still the same beautiful Leah Clearwater she had always been. "Hey Leah" I felt my body tense as Embry hugged her "H-Hey Embry" Embry looked a little saddened when he walked away from Leah towards Seth "Shoot" He mumbled to himself. "Hey Leah" This time my hands formed tight fists at my sides, as Quil hugged her tight "Hey Quil, wow you guys are strong" I smiled smugly to myself, there plan hadn't worked, neither of those losers had got their wish and imprinted on Leah. "Darn it" Quil sulked over to Embry whilst Leah rubbed her back; yup she was going to have a nice bruise in the morning. "Hey Lee" I pulled her into a big hug, being careful not to squeeze her to tight and hurt her further. She wrapped her arms around my neck; I shivered slightly as her cold hands brushed the warm skin on the back of my neck. I sunk my face into her shinny locks, wishing the hug would last forever. If Seth could read my thoughts right now he would surely kill me. Strawberry so that's where the scent was coming from, it was Leah's shampoo. "Jake you're hurting her" Seth's voice ripped threw me, I was so caught up in my thoughts I wasn't paying attention on my body strength, I let her go and saw tears falling down her checks, how could I have been so stupid to get distracted whilst I'm so near a human, I had hurt her worse than the two knuckle heads, I had made her cry. "I'm so Sorry Leah I didn't mean too, I just don't know my own…" "You didn't hurt me Jacob *sniffs* your just all being so nice to me" my heart almost broke as I looked deep into her eyes, the hurt she was feeling, the grief she was going through, I had been there myself, I was just about to reach out and comfort her when Seth pulled her into a protective hug "Leah" I could see Seth fighting his own war with tears as his sister trembled in his arms.
