Waking up, brushing your teeth, having a bowl of ice cream. Privacy. The little things in life that give you a slight amount of comfort. Its funny how you sometimes take these things for granted, I thought . I rolled my eyes as I heard the laughs and screams erupt from downstairs. Seth and Jacob had just arrived back from the Cullens.

The Cullens. Ugh. I had no idea why my little brother could even stand being in the same room as them. But that was Seth, I guess, Seth couldn't be Seth without all that weirdness. And then there was Jacob,, forever twisted with the Cullens ever since, half human half bloodsucker princess Renessme Cullen came along.

"Leah!" I heard Seth whine. That was my cue to go downstairs. I groaned as pushed myself off my bed. My hair was a mess and I was in my pajamas, but whatever, I thought giving myself a quick lookover, it's nothing they hadn't seen before.

" What!" I yelled walking as slowly as I could down the stairs. With a dramatic sigh I leaped over the banister, jumping right into my living room.

"Jacob stole my ipod!" he immediately said, pointing to Jacob.

"Why would I steal your ipod" Jacob scoffed crossing his arms. He was an expert liar, his voice never wavered. But his grin, his goofy grin always gave him away, always.

"Seth stop acting like a baby and Jacob give back Seths ipod" I said pushing past them. I was too old to deal with this kind of stuff, too, too old. I made my way towards my couch covering myself in a blanket. I hid my face under it. What had become of my life? I thought to myself. If someone told me I would have been babysitter to two werewolves, I would have laughed in their faces. I tried to go back to sleep but failed, Jacob and Seth were discussing last nights patrol. Apparently they had run into a leech and Seth was reenacting the whole fight to Jacob. Boys, I thought, trying to block the sound by turning myself over.

Suddenly I felt someone plop next to me ,yanking away my blanket.I looked up sharply. Jacob.

I narrowed my eyes at him, pulling the blanket back.

"What, cat got your tongue Leah?" he said grinning like an idiot.

"Stupid ass" I growled, glaring at him.

'Leah wheres the muffins Emily made us?" Seth asked throwing things out of the fridge.

"I'm not your maid!" I snapped, jumping up from the couch.

"Geesh Leah, no need to get all bitter on us" Jacob mumbled.

"Whatever, I don't care, leave me alone" I huffed out quickly, these boys were getting on my nerves in record time.

"Stop being dramatic!" Jacob said with his "alpha" voice.

"Stop being annoying" I quickly retorted.

Seth snickered quietly in the background. Both Jacob's and eyes snapped quickly to Seth. Seth froze from where he was a the fridge, unsure what to didn't want to be subject to the wrath of both of us combined.

"You're patrolling with me tonight" Jacob told me, never leaving his eyes off Seth.

By this time Seth was starting to get nervous. The boy stared slowly heading up the stairs to his room, Jacob never breaking eye contact. It actually started to get creepy after a while. I flickered my eyes toward Jacob, questioning him what exactly he was doing to my little shrugged, claiming it was a "scare tactic" or something.

"Alice saw some vamps coming our way tonight, might cause some trouble" Jacob said casually, as if discussing vamps was like discussing favorite colors.

"Cool." I said finally sitting down on the couch again.

Jacob shot me his "warning" look before continuing what he was going to say. " And she also wanted me to invite you to Nessie's birthday party"

" Not going." I said, getting up and closing the fridge Seth had left opened.

"Thought so" he laughed, "Uh, so see you tonight" he said suddenly heading towards the door.

"Unfortunately" I sighed.

Finally, some quiet, I thought after Jacob left. Seth was upstairs sleeping, and he probably wouldn't wake up anytime soon. I went back towards the couch and laid on it. I closed my eyes finally getting the sleep I wanted before patrol.
