"Okay, I know I agreed to this but-" Leah began.
"Do you need all of this done to you? Yeah, you do Lee." Alice finished. Leah sighed. They had been 'fixing her up' for about 2 hours. They had made sure to have all her clothes off except underwear and bra. She felt extremely self conscious considering they were otherworldly beautiful, and she was… well Leah.
Alice had cut her short hair just a half in inch shorter, but Leah had to admit she liked it. It was swooshed across her forehead and, slightly like a bang, ended right next to her eye. Her nails were painted a light fall orange, which really complimented her skin tone. They wouldn't let her see the dress. Her skin was nice and soft, and looked a lot like melted caramel. Her makeup had been subtle, just eyeliner and a bit of mascara. Rose had said her eye lashes were long enough already. They only put a bit of lip gloss on, just to be noticeable.
Suddenly Alice squealed as she put just a peck of red lipstick on her lips.
"Done! Rosalie, get the dress!" Leah rolled her eyes at her enthusiasm, annoyed, when abruptly she couldn't see anything.
"Alice. Remove your hands from my face right now or there will be hell to pay." She whispered, snarling. Alice giggled. She heard people moving around the room, stepping closer to her as Rosalie walked back into the room.
"Ooooh! She'll love it! Great pick!" Alice squealed. Leah's hands gripped the salon chair in nervousness. What if she looked like complete shit?!
She felt soft fabric being placed against her skin. She took a deep, shaking breathe, and her eyes snapped open as soon as she felt the pressure of hands leave her eyes.
She gasped. In the mirror stood a goddess, which short black hair, full lips and piercing hazel eyes.
Leah (after a shock realized she was the girl in the mirror) wore a black cocktail dress with a sweetheart neckline, which went down just a little bit lower than Leah's comfort zone. And she liked it. It felt like she was taking a risk.
Her eyes were sharp and more defined after Alice put eyeliner on then. Her plump, pink lips had a slightly red tint to them after the lipstick. Her shoulders were visible, and they were broad, yet still soft and feminine. Lying against her chest was a black butterfly, little rose thorns and leaves made up its wings. The dress was slightly tight, and held her snuggly in the right places, showing off her curves. As Leah stood up, her dress rode up her long, toned legs. Leah soon realized the dress only went to mid thigh.
With a happy sigh, she cocked her hips to the side and half smiled, half smirked. Fiddling with her necklace and turned to the two and a half vampires.
Ha! Leah thought. I crack myself up.
Leah frowned when she saw that every one of them had apprehensive looks on their faces, and Renesmee actually stepped away.
"I love it." she smiled. "Now get dressed so we can get this show on the road."
While the other ladies got ready, they talked about things that only best friends would. Worst one night stands, worst dates and now-
"Alright, worse pick up line." Renesmee said, picking munching on gummy bears. Rosalie smirked.
"Are you a parking ticket? Cause you got 'fine' written all over you." She muttered, rolling her eyes. Leah snorted.
"Oh, I can beat that. So I was in Seattle getting some clothes once, and this guy comes over to me on a park bench, grabs my ass, and says 'Is this seat taken?'" After a pause, they all laughed. Hard.
Hours later, they were all ready. Rosalie wore a deep red dress, which got lacy at the bottom which was her knees. Alice wore a midnight blue strapless dress and looked absolutely gorgeous. Renesmee however, was dressed dark purple and looked so unbelievable it made Esme tearlessly.
"Oh Nessie! It's beautiful!" Esme cried. Leah chuckled but quickly shooed everyone out the room.
"Come on we gotta leave before it's Ness and Jake time-" but after a quick inhale she stiffened.
Her eyes darted out the window next to her, overlooking the woods. There were tree's rustling, and staining her ears further, she realized between their grunts and growls, they were sniffing and searching her out.
She sprinted down the steps with a panicked look on her face. She started screaming at Alice Rosalie and Ness to hurry up. They had been stopped by their loved ones.
"Get home quick alright?" Emmet whispered in Rosalie's ear, who giggled. He stared at her ass as she walked to stand by Leah.
"Love you darlin'" Jasper's southern drawl spoke out to Alice who stopped, smiled and kissed him with passion. Leah rolled her eyes at that one.
"Don't dance with anyone who's drunk Renesmee. I mean it." Edward warned his daughter who huffed impatiently. Edward had scolded her for getting ready to leave without consolting him or Bella. In fact, Bella still didn't even know.
"I really hate to interrupt this hear felt moment, but I really think we need to go!" Leah cried. All raised their heads at the stomping of bare feet against muddy ground and leaves.
"Run!" Alice yelled, breaking away from Jasper and sprinted out the door in vampire speed. Leah would use her speed to, but it was hard to run in stilettos.
"Come on!" the beautiful and nicely dressed young women yelled when Leah stumbled down the steps. Her head snapped towards the tree line. Jacob and Paul locked eyes with her and screamed, coordinately, "LEAH!"
Leah quickly ran to the bright yellow Porsche and climbed in the passenger seat. Alice and Ness sat in the back, Rosalie drove.
Rosalie quickly pulled out of the drive, quickly changing course as they got onto the freeway. Dodging cars who angrily honked at them, and going well over the speed limit, they made it to the highway in 5 minutes.
Leah began to laugh uncontrollably when she saw a flashes of different cololored fur just behind the tree line. The whole pack planned to corner them huh?
She, Leah, chucked up her fingers in peace, before flipping them off.
"Too loud!" Leah screeched, her hands over her ears as the news person broadcasted the weather. She had been previously lying on the couch, snuggled and happy, and asleep. Now it seemed impossible.
She groaned as the room began swimming. She quickly ran upstairs to the bathroom to vomit. Leah gasped and heaved before slumping next to the toilet, flushing it during the process. She turned towards the bathtub and put it as hot as it could go. Even after an hour she lay in the tub, water only lukewarm, and her head still pounding slightly.
Damn, she thought, I can't even remember what I did last night!
After that thought, Leah was determined to know. She quickly got out of the bathtub; put her hair in a sloppy pony-tail and navy blue gym shorts and a tank top. She walked quickly down the steps to the living room and sat on the cough with Rose and Ali, who were online shopping. They sniggered at what she was wearing, but Leah didn't care.
"What happened last night?!" she demanded impatiently. That shut them up.
"Well, when they played 'Poor Some Sugar On Me' you made a very hot and drunk guy lick vodka off your-"
"Leah, I brought you some tea to help with the headache." Esme interrupted, shooting a small, motherly glare at Rosalie, who smirked. Leah said her thanks and drank it, which tasted like lemon tea, and soon her headache was gone completely.
"Alright, what happen right here?" asked Leah, pointing to a bruise on her leg, which should've healed already.
Rosalie and Alice seemed to be thinking the same thing.
"We honestly don't know. Lots of guys came up to you, anyone could've done it." Nessie said suddenly.
"Mmk…" Leah whispered. "Alrighty then, whacta doin'?"
They shopped online and talked for hours, laughing and joking. Esme, Carlisle, Jasper and Edward, Bella and Emmet went hunting, leaving the house for them. They blared music and danced around happily. Light was back in Leah's eyes as she hung out with her friends.
These were Leah's only friends. Her mother, dating Charlie, had moved in with him and visited from time to time, so Leah saw her once in a while. Leah refrained from showing her feelings around her mother; she felt it was none of her business who she dated. But it's been seven years and Leah still hasn't talked to her about her father's death, and she thought maybe they never would. Seth has been hanging around the pack more than her these days. She knew it would happen eventually. The pack hated her guts so they never really cared. Then her understanding with Jake was now gone, because of his imprint with Nessie. He claimed to understand still, but his whole feelings on the subject were gone. He didn't remember the talks they had near the river, the holding Leah while she cried. She had pretty much lost everything, except the girls she was sitting with on the couch at this moment. Leah turned to Alice and asked if she should leave. Go to Europe and find a place to live for a while.
"A vacation to Italy sounds pretty good actually." Bella answered suddenly, nodding. She sat on the arm chair opposite them. "Everyone else was still pretty hungry, but I left." Leah hid her emotions with a smile.
"Yeah, but I didn't mean as a vacation, as in a permanent home." Leah said firmly. Alice and Rosalie gasped. Avoiding their eyes, she said-
"I'll be right back." Leah stood and headed to the fridge for an apple. She took a bite as she came back, but immediately stopped chewing. The whole pack was glaring at her.
"Where the hell have you been?" Sam growled. Leah hoped to Taha Aki that he didn't see her trembling in absolute fear, and kept her head high.
"I've been out and about. I had fun. Now leave." Leah muttered. They snarled at her.
"Do you know how worried we've been-"Jared yelled.
"None at all." Leah whispered.
"Hours we've looked for you-"Embry shouted.
"Probably more annoyed about that than anything." Leah murmured.
"How we've been using our time to hunt leeches to make sure your okay!" Jacob snarled.
"Emily made you." Leah suddenly screamed in fury. The way he said 'make sure your okay' made it seem like he could care less if she fell off the Grand Canyon.
She threw the apple at his head. Jacob grunted in pain. She turned to Seth, who looked as angry as the rest of them. Which didn't help her anger at all. She growled.
"Seth? Say something." Nessie whispered, stepping cautiously into the room. She glared at Jacob, who was still rubbing the spot on his head. His eyes softened when he saw her looking angrily at him. Seth snorted and shrugged, looking completely annoyed.
"Waste of my time." He grunted, staring at Leah with a look that screamed hate. She couldn't take it anymore. She clenched her hands at the sides of her waist, going upstairs to the guest room. Nessie stepped up to Seth and slapped him as Leah was soon out of sight.
"Inconsiderate ass whole." She snarled at him before following Leah up the stairs to comfort her. She could hear here pacing upstairs, contemplating on what she would break. Rosalie and Alice snarled and hissed at them all when they looked like they were going to follow them up the stairs.
"Get out." Alice whispered, it sounded like a deadly hiss of a snake.
"You know, she's thinking about leaving soon. As in leaving the country and not coming back. You're not helping your case at all being dicks." Rosalie said loudly to them all. She soon stomped up the stairs to her now completely furious best friend, who was throwing various things across the room, not letting any of them inside.
The pack all rolled their eyes and scoffed. There was no way Leah would leave them. They thought she still felt something for Sam, which kept her from leaving. But it was really Seth she stayed for. But now that Seth hated her, she was serious. A vacation to Italy sounded great to her. Job applications did too. Italian dudes also.
Twenty minutes later, Leah was scared. She let the girls in and let them hold her. She was soon having an have an anxiety attack.
She was shaking and sweating.
She couldn't breathe.
She couldn't stop feeling as if something was watching her; the walls were closing in on her.
Everything went black.
Comforting bright red eyes guided her through it all in her dreams. So why couldn't they do it in the real world, where she really needed them?
A/N: I felt this chapter could've been better, but I had no idea how to do it.
Thank you so much Guest, crazychic Nnikkipooo, Firefly-class, MissRuthless, brankel1, Angel of Darkness Forever, Her Awesomeness, and NaeNaeLu for revewing! It's very much appreciated, considering I thought no one would. Nine reviews on the first chapter! Never thought I'd see it in my lifetime.
REVIEW! I'll love you forever, and I will cry rain drops for youu!
Oh, people have been asking me why Bella got slapped.
Well, it's because Rosalie thought it was her fault for Leah's first anxiety attack. Bella was playing with Nessie right in front of Leah, knowing Leah wants kids. Plus, Rosalie's been waiting for a chance to slap Bella. So yeah, that's why.
Goodybye my lovelies!
