Thank you all so much for your reviews :) They are super awesome! Thanks also to everyone who favorited and followed the story, that lets me know people are genuinely interested in where this story may go. Um, still don't have a beta...

This chapter is shorter, but it's super cute. The interaction in this one between Leah and Jake is one I frequently have with my one-year old cousin. *sigh* babies are stubborn.

Because I'm on Spring Break this week, I probably will post this week's chapter as well as next week's chapter this week... Maybe even more if I'm writing instead of sleeping (prolly not).

But yeah, enjoy this one and don't forget to review and give me your thoughts- remember, constructive criticism is welcome, nasty, hateful comments are not!


Chapter Two.

One year later…

"Ok Leah, can you say… I love Jake"

The one-year old baby giggled at me and put her chubby little hands on my face. "No!" She exclaimed.

"C'mon. Why not?" I was to the point of pleading. Not once had I managed to get her to tell me she loved me. She told everyone else, but not me.

"I no want to!" She spoke defiantly and my wolf chuckled at me. She wiggled her way out of my lap and onto the floor, where she proceeded to run as fast as her little legs could take her over to her brother, who was watching us in amusement. Over the last year, Seth had indeed become ok with the fact I'd imprinted on his sister. At first, our friendship had gone through a little sore spot when for the first couple of months after Leah's birth, he hadn't known how to act around me, as he had it in his mind that he had to be short with me because he was the big brother. After a tense, awkward afternoon of watching reality TV shows, we had alleviated that awkwardness when we had both burst out in laughter at one of the show's actresses. We had made eye contact and grinned at each other before deciding to go work on a couple of cars. Now, we were buddies, brothers, again, with my imprinting just a slight glitch Seth pays no mind to.

"Aww, Lee-Lee, are you being mean to Jakey?" He grinned at me and proceeded to pick up Leah.

She settled herself in his lap then, "I wuv Sethy!" and proceeded to clap her hands.

"AHAHAHAHAHA! Good girl Lee-Lee! Hahahahahaha." I glared at my best friend hatefully.

"No! Not good girl! Lee-Lee is being a meanie." The baby in question looked at me with her big doe eyes, playing with her fingers. Her eyebrows furrowed as she stared at me.

"I wuv Jake." She declared. I smiled at her and she smiled and giggled at me, and I swear it was like magic.

"I love you too pretty girl. Now, wanna watch Baby Einstein?"

"Baby Einstein! Baby Einstein! Me watch Baby Einstein now!" She proceeded to wiggle her way from Seth like she had done me, and then she was off, running toward the kitchen. Before she could go too far, however, I managed to scoop her up into my arms.

"Ok silly baby! Wait a sec!"

"Me watch baby Einstein now!"

"Alright but first we need to—" I sniffed her butt just for extra measure, even though my wolf was telling me I sure as hell didn't need to. "Leah, did you make a stink butt?"

"No!"

"Do we need to change your diaper?"

"NO! Me watch Baby Einstein!"

"Ok, how about first, we change your diaper, then we can watch Baby Einstein, ok?"

"Ok." She quieted as I set her down on the couch and got a diaper and wipes.

"Hey Seth, you wanna take care of this one man?"

"Haha, you're funny Jake. Really, a real jokester you are."

I scowled at him, but took a deep breath and mentally prepared myself for what awaited me in the baby's diaper. Leah was watching me closely, while chewing on her clean diaper. I quickly took off her baby leggings, unsnapped her onesie, and unbuckled the side sticky parts of the diaper. I closed my eyes as I uncovered her poopy butt. The smell that wafted through my super sensitive nose made me want to barf.

"That is a very manly smell you got going on there Lee." I turned to look at Seth who was holding his nose, looking slightly pale. He gave me an encouraging thumbs up.

I exhaled and pressed the dirty diaper down between her butt to try to get the extra shit off her. She immediately straightened her legs and I put the diaper to the side. I carefully took out two wipes and cleaned up everything and put them in the dirty diaper and secured it back together.

"You see this Lee-Lee? This is your stinky diaper." She scrunched up her nose and inhaled and exhaled quickly through it to indicate that indeed, it was a stinky diaper.

I quickly put on her clean diaper and righted her clothing. I stood her up on the floor and handed her the stinky diaper, "Can you throw this in the trash like a big girl Lee?"

"I throw it in the trash," she said determinedly.

"Dude, you gotta spray some of that air freshener my mom bought, or I'm not gonna last."

"I think you should suffer since you decided you didn't want to help clean up your sister."

"Hey! I didn't think you'd mind. She needed her diaper changed, and the imprint demands you to do whatever she needs!" I glared at him, again, and noticed Leah hadn't come back. I took the few steps into the kitchen and saw that she wasn't in there, near the trash can like I expected her to be.

"Uh, Seth? I think we lost Leah…" There was a rummage and then he was standing next to me.

"Oh shit! Mom's gonna be pissed! This is what? The third time this week!"

"Shit." My speedy little imprint would be the death of me.
