Confrontation

Emily's Point of View

With that one step bringing us closer I took a quick step back, realizing what I had to do. The anger resurfaced and I started yelling. "HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO LEAH? WEREN'T YOU IN LOVE WITH HER? DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'VE DONE?" It was hard to yell at him and when his face contorted in pain I just wanted to wrap my arms around him and apologize.

His gaze never left mine, and I could see how hurt he was. "I… you don't understand… I didn't want to… I love her…" He wouldn't finish any of his sentences and it was really getting to me. I smashed my hand into the counter and he winced. "Please, just… let me explain… tomorrow?"

I thought about that. Tomorrow was Saturday and it wasn't like I had plans. "Fine. But you better have some good answers." I turned around and walked out of the kitchen, towards the front door. "What time will you be here?"

He thought for a moment before turning his attention back to me. "Be here at 1." I nodded, said goodbye to Grace, and walked straight out of the house.

The entire drive home my mind was yelling. One part of my brain wanted to know why I didn't demand answers now, the other part was wondering what had happened in that kitchen…

As soon as I pulled into the house I could tell by the atmosphere that something was wrong. Had what Sky thought come true? Did something bad happen tonight? I quickened my pace and soon enough I was standing in the living room in front of all of the family… except Sky. "Where's Sk-"

Seth cut me off. "Her dad came back. Stormed in here grabbed her and dragged her home." It looked as if he was about to cry, but before I could say a word he ran upstairs and I heard his door slam shut.

"Is he okay?" I whispered to Auntie Sue. She also looked like she was on the verge of tears. She shrugged and got up and left too. Uncle Harry got up and followed her out leaving me and Leah in here alone.

"What errands did you run?" She asked after a while.

I froze, I hadn't thought about that. Luckily she didn't notice my slip up. "Well I went down to the little convenient store by the beach. I wanted to see if they had any charities for me to donate to." Thankfully I had checked that during the week last week. "I donated some money then got distracted by looking around."

"Oh alright." It was quiet for a few minutes before she spoke again. "You're becoming one of my best friends Emily. Thank you for being here for me…"

I smiled. "Thank you Leah, it means a lot. And I'll always be here for you, you're my baby cousin!" She nodded in response, almost smiling herself, and her eyelids drooped. "You're tired, why don't we go to bed?" She nodded again and we headed to the stairs.

We get ready for bed in silence before we both said Goodnight and went to our separate rooms. I had a hard time falling asleep because now on top of my unease about tomorrow I was worried about Sky in the next house over.

Next thing I knew I was waking up the next morning to screaming from our neighbors. Rushing out into the hallway I noticed I wasn't the only one who heard. "What's going on?" I quickly asked the rest of the family.

Auntie Sue's face was really concerned so I guessed that the yelling was coming from Sky's house.

Once we were all outside we could here what they were yelling perfectly clear and we could also here Sky. "IF YOU GUYS DON'T WANT ME THEN WHY DON'T YOU JUST GIVE ME AWAY? I'M SURE MO-SUE AND HARRY WON'T MIND ME LIVING THERE!"

Wait, so they were fighting about not wanting Sky? Who wouldn't want Sky?

If the window wasn't open I wouldn't have been able to hear what the next exchange was. "She has a point you know. That way neither of us have to deal with it."

"Her you ninny. I'm a girl. Not an it!" Poor Sky. What else will happen to the little girl?

"You shut up. No one cares for your opinion." I saw movement coming from the corner of my eye and looked over to see a very angry Seth trying to break the hold Uncle Harry had on him. It brought tears to my eyes every time I thought about how much she means to him.

"If you don't mind I'm going over to the Clearwater's for the night! See you tomorrow!" and with that a very disgruntled Sky threw open the front door and slammed it shut. As soon as the door was closed Seth managed to get free and he ran to her tackling her to the ground. After a few minutes he stood up and held his hand out to her. He helped her up, then hand and hand, they walked back to our house.

I heard Seth whisper, "You don't even have to ask." and she nodded but asked anyways.

"Hey mom, is it alright if I stay another night?" Sue smiled down at her and nodded her head. Sky smiled and towed Seth upstairs. Before I went back to bed I checked on Sky. When I opened the door I saw the two of them snuggled together under the blankets in Seth's room. I had a small smile on my face as I turned to head back to my room.

Since it was only Saturday no one was really all that energetic when I woke up at 8 o'clock. Auntie Sue was making coffee for Uncle Harry who was going out fishing with his friend Billy, and I was readying myself for the meeting I have planned with Sam.

I sat in my room just staring at the wall thinking about how I can gently yell at him for breaking my new best friends heart. Before I knew it I looked at the clock and it was 11:30. How did that much time go by? Quickly I ran over to the bureau and grabbed a plain black t-shirt and a pair of jeans. Once I was completely dressed it was 11:45 and I decided I should help Auntie Sue with lunch.

Walking down the stairs I smelt the aroma of pea soup drifting up. "Hey Auntie Sue!" I called to her. "Homemade pea soup?"

I could hear her smile as she answered. "Yeah, mmmm." Once I rounded the corner she whispered. "It's one of Leah's favorites." I nodded in understanding and asked if she needed any help. After her telling me she had the soup covered she turned and added one thing. "Can you check on Leah for me?" I agreed and headed off the my cousins room.

Knocking on the door I called out, "Hey Leah can I come in?"

"Yeah sure." I could imagine her shrugging. Once I opened the door I saw her sitting, leaning up against the headboard, staring into space. I sat down next to her and grabbed her hand. After a few minutes she spoke. "Why wasn't I good enough for him?"

I could feel tears welling up in my eyes. "You are perfect the way you are Leah, don't doubt yourself. If he's stupid enough to let you go he doesn't deserve you."

She leaned her head onto my shoulders and I could feel the tears falling down. I wrapped her in a hug and we just sat there until her mom came and called all the kids down for lunch. Leah and I walked downstairs together and sat down right next to each other. Everyone was smart enough not to ask any questions so the lunch went by silently, until Sky's dad decided to make an appearance.

The loud knocking on the doors alerted us of someone and Sue got up to answer the door. "Oh.. Steve hello."

"Hey Suzy. Is my little angle here?"

"If you mean Sky, then yah she's here." I gasped when I heard this. I don't think I've ever heard Sue being mean.

"Yes I do mean that. Can you go fetch her? We have some arrangements that need to be worked out." His voice sounded slimy.

"She only likes dogs, she isn't actually one."

"Fine then! Goddamn bitch just go get my damn daughter!" With that Sky slammed her spoon down and shot up from the table.

"YOU DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT TALK TO HER LIKE THAT!" We all bolted after her and as soon as we got to the front door we saw her being towed away by her ear lobe.

"I don't like him…" I muttered under my breath. Leah looked like she was going to cry again, Seth looked like he was going to break something (preferably her dad), and Auntie looked like she just had part of her dragged out the door. Looking up at the clock I noticed it was already 12:45. I should probably leave soon… "Hey guys I think I'm going to go for a drive. I'll be back later." Sue nodded and I ran upstairs to grab my keys before leaving. The drive was a peaceful drive compared to what I'm sure would happen once I got there. It was only 12:58 when I got their so I headed straight for the door. Before I got there I was intercepted with a warm hand grabbing my forearm.

"C'mon Em, let's go for a walk while I explain." I followed without hesitation and I wondered where this trust for this man came from.

We walked for what felt like hours but it couldn't have been more than half an hour. "Are you going to explain or not?" I tried to sound angry but it sounded more like I was being as nice as possible.

"It's not something you'll… believe…" What did that even mean?

Stopping I grabbed his shoulders and turned him towards me. He wouldn't look me in the eyes so I had to force him to. One we had eye contact I decided to speak. "Try me."

He looked off into the forest for a moment then looked back at me. "Have you heard the legends of the Quileutes?"

I thought about that. "When I was younger. But I live on a different reservation so I haven't really heard them in a while…"

He frowned clearly disappointed. "Well that makes everything harder." He seemed to think for a bit before he started telling me what the legends were about. He told me about spirit warriors and Taha Aki. The stories fascinated me, and once he started talking about how the 'werewolves' would imprint and everything I was absolutely lost.

"How does this explain anything?" He flinched, but I couldn't understand why.

He got up and started pacing in the little clearing we were in. "You don't understand! The legends, everything I just told you is true." I thought for a moment before I registered it. Breathing became harder and I looked up into his eyes. "Emily, I'm a werewolf!" Looking into his eyes I could tell he was telling the truth. I wanted so badly to yell at him for taking me out here and lying to me but I knew it wouldn't change anything. I felt like he wasn't ever going to lie to me.

"I believe you Sam. But what does this have to do with Leah, and you breaking up with her?" None of it was making sense.

He dropped his gaze to the forest floor and he almost whispered the words. "I'm dangerous. I could hurt her… and with imprinting there would always be the possibility of mentally hurting her. I had to break up with her to keep her safe. Now I've imprinted on one of her friends and I don't know what to do about it." When he said he imprinted I had to frown. I told myself I frowned because of Leah but a part of my brain was telling me that wasn't why I was frowning.

"How are you dangerous? Did you imprint on Kim?" I asked both questions slowly and with the second question his eyebrows raised.

"If I get angry I could phase and turn into a giant wolf, I could hurt someone I love, I could even kill them. And no… I didn't imprint on Kim… I-I imprinted…" He paused taking a deep breath. "I imprinted on you Emily."

I couldn't contain the gasp. My best friend/cousins ex boyfriend had imprinted on me, making me his soul mate. This was surely to tear her apart. As my mind went through many thoughts they all turned to Leah and how much she'd hate me for this. I couldn't deny that there was something between Sam and I, and he made me feel safe. Suddenly I looked up into his eyes and saw something flash across them.

"Emily? Emily, what rez did you say you came from?" MY eyebrows nitted together.

"I didn't."

"Please say it wasn't the Makah Rez?" His eyes were pleading but I couldn't lie to him.

"I'm not going to lie, I'm from the Makah Rez." Sam started shaking violently and I put my arm on his bicep trying to get him to stop.

"You're Leah's cousin." It wasn't a question but I still nodded in confirmation. His shaking increased and suddenly the air around us changed and I felt a searing hot pain traveling down the right side of my body. I cried out in pain and fell to the ground. I heard a howl and looked up into the face of a huge black wolf. The rational part of my brain was telling me to be scared, but another part was noting the agonized howling of the wolf and how it's eyes were the same as Sam's. I knew I was lucky to be this aware of my surroundings but soon enough I saw blackness crawling towards me.

I quietly whispered, "Sam," before the blackness covered everything and the pain subsided.

Sky's Point of View (starts in the car on the way home from school)

All day I had a feeling in the pit of my stomach telling me something bad was going to happen. I didn't know what it was so I had no way of stopping it. When I had tried to talk to Seth about it he just got upset saying he wasn't going to let anything happen to me. I knew he was going to have trouble keeping that promise but I didn't object the hug he gave me. Everything about him made me feel safe. I'd be lost without Seth.

We had both climber into the car and I wasn't really paying attention so when Emily asked how our day was I didn't think to answer.

"Fine." Seth's voice rung out and I nodded.

Emily frowned and looked at me in the rearview mirror. "What happened Sky?"

I quickly answered, saying, "nothing." The rest of the drive home was silent but once we got there she turned towards me and held me back. "Sky."

I didn't know if I should tell her because this is usually the kind of thing I talk to Leah about but I didn't want to overwhelm he. Looking into her eyes I told the true. "I have this bad feeling about today and I just can't shake it and when I told Seth he got angry and said that he wasn't gunna let anything happen but I'm afraid he won't be able to stop whatever is going to happen." After I stopped talking I took a deep breath.

What she said didn't help me any though. "Sky, don't worry about it, you're safe in Auntie Sue's house. Nothing to worry about." I shook my head while climbing out of the car and walked up to the porch. Grabbing Seth's hand I dragged him inside. He waved back then asked me what had happened.

"She wanted to know what happened at school, and I told her I have a bad feeling about today but she said the same thing as you did." He nodded and was about to drag me upstairs when I heard a voice from the living room, along with a soft crying. "Wait, Seth, do you hear that? Is that Leah?" He listened and as soon as he caught the sound he changed direction and was dragging me off.

Once we were in the living room I saw Leah's best friend Kim talking to Leah rubbing her back, while Leah's head was on Kim's legs. Seth knelt down in front of Leah. "Hey sis, do you want to talk about it?" She shook her head and he got up and walked towards the stairs. I grabbed his wrist and stopped him, telling him I'd be up in a minute.

"Lee Lee, I love you." I whispered and she smiled back, sort of. "Don't forget to try to be happy for your birthday." Her eyebrows knitted together. "Leah, you forgot about your birthday didn't you?" She nodded. "It's on Monday." And with that I started for the stairs.

Before I got to them though I heard a knock on the front door. "I'll get it!" I called out to anyone who would care. I opened the door and was greeted by a face I had hoped I would never see again. "Hi Scott." I had learned better than to call him my dad. His face was still the same as when he left a month ago. He still needed to shave and looking into his mucky gray eyes you could tell there was nothing he cared for less in the world than me.

"Hi…" he had a look on his face that showed how hard he was concentrating. "Sunny?"

I shook my head. "No, Sky."

"DON'T backtalk me!" He yelled in my face, grabbing my arm as tight as he could and started dragging me out of the house. Leah, Kim, and Seth were suddenly in the doorway about to burst after me.

"It's alright you guys." Leah and Kim warily stopped but Seth kept coming. "Dragon. Stay." He immediately stopped following us but looked at me with pain filled eyes.

I didn't even realize we were that close to my house until I was shaded from one of those rare sunny days in La Push. He threw me onto the couch and told me to stay. I did as I was told so I wouldn't end up at the hospital again.

The entire time they bickered my mind kept singing 'I knew it!' and it was right. I knew something bad was going to happen, and I knew that Seth wouldn't be able to stop it.

The two of them argued back and forth for hours and I felt that 7 o'clock couldn't come slower. I knew they would direct there yelling at me asking me why I haven't started dinner and whatnot, but I also knew that if I stood up it was likely my dad would get angry and hit me.

"Why the hell aren't you making dinner you little whore?" My dad yelled in my face.

"I'll get right on that." I went to get up and he shoved me down.

"Yeah you better get on it." How was I supposed to start if he wouldn't let me up?

Finally I was able to get up but when I looked through the cabinets I was only able to find spaghetti and one can of sauce, there is enough for them but I don't think I'll be getting any… After I put the pot of water on the stove to boil I decided to actual listen to their conversation.

They weren't talking that loud but I heard words like divorce, house, it. Were they finally getting a divorce? Who was I going to have to live with? Would they make me move? I thought over all these questions as I finished cooking dinner, which took quite a while. When it was done I looked at the clock and saw it was 7:45.

"Steve, Julie dinner is done!" I called out and watched as my mom strutted into the room. My mom was one of those really fake girls that had bleached blonde hair, with the dark roots showing, and 90% plastic surgery. Honestly, none of it did any good, I personally thought she was one of the ickiest people on earth.

I was lucky enough to get one of the only good qualities about her, her eyes. I liked to consider my eyes pretty but I wasn't sure if they actually were. My eyes are sapphire, with a dark blue ring around the colored part of them. I got the russet skin from my father, and the black hair from both of them. My hair was just the right black that sometimes it looked like their was blue in my hair.

As I had suspected they didn't save any for me. I cleaned their plates and they went back to arguing. When I realized they weren't even paying attention to me I went into my bedroom to go to sleep. I didn't get to sleep till about 10 o'clock but I figured that wasn't too late.

No more than 3 hours later I was woken up by screaming. What were they yelling about now?

Entering the living room where my parents were arguing I heard every word, and even though I knew that's how they felt it still hurt.

"No way are you making me keep that… kid!" My mother yelled.

"Well I'm not keeping that pain in the ass!" Father retorted.

"I don't care just leave her out on the streets or someth-"

Before I realized what I was doing I cut my mother of with screaming. "IF YOU GUYS DON'T WANT ME THEN WHY DON'T YOU JUST GIVE ME AWAY? I'M SURE MO-SUE AND HARRY WON'T MIND ME LIVING THERE!" I had almost called Sue mom in front of my parents. That would've ended badly.

My mother's voice stung. "She has a point you know. That way neither of us have to deal with it."

"Her you ninny. I'm a girl. Not an it!" How could my own parents say this! I look over at my dad who has this gleam in his eyes. It scared me. He was standing there looking me up and down smirking.

"You shut up. No one cares for your opinion." I hate her. I hate hate hate my so called mother!

"If you don't mind I'm going over to the Clearwater's for the night! See you tomorrow!" I yelled at them opening, then slamming the door shut. I looked towards the Clearwater's in time to see Seth running to me. Wrapping his arms around me we both fell to the ground, me falling on top of him. I blushed and buried my face into his chest. "Will your mom mind if I stay another night?" He nodded and got up, reaching for my hand. He went to let go of my hand but I just held on tighter.

Seth whispered to me as we got closer. "You don't even have to ask." I nodded but figured I should be polite.

"Hey mom, is it alright if I stay another night?" Mom smiled down at me and nodded her head. As soon as I got her permission I was yanking Seth's hand getting him to follow me upstairs. He started going in my room but I shook my head, steering him to his.

Once we were in there I let go of his hand and went straight to his dresser. I grabbed one of his shirts and told him to close his eyes. I changed into the shirt and walked back over to him. He felt the bed move under my weight and scooted over to the headboard where I was sitting. He wrapped his arms around me and just held me, knowing I didn't want to talk. He knew me well enough to know that if I changed into one of his shirts that that means I need to feel wanted.

After a couple of minutes of silence I looked up at his face. "Why don't they love me Sethie?" I could feel the tears escaping and for once I didn't try to stop them.

Seth brought his hand up to my cheek and wiped away each individual tear. "Because they are idiots. If they can't see how perfect you are then they have something wrong with them. You deserve to be treated like an angle Sky." I tightened my hold on him and we just sat there in silence for probably 10 more minutes. At that time I yawned and he laid us both down, me curled up against his chest, feeling that safe feeling that came along with being close to Seth.

The next morning I knew that last night wasn't a dream. Sitting up I tried not to wake Seth up. I walked back over to his dresser and grabbed a pair of his sporty shorts. What can I say I love wearing Seth's clothes. I was surprised to find the time already 11:30 but decided to go lay down with Seth again anyways. Seth started waking up at about noon and he was shocked he slept that long.

"Sky! If you were awake you should've woken me up!" I shook my head with a smile on my face.

"Never Sethie, never." He rolled his eyes and sat up.

"I'm surprised dad didn't carry you to your room or anything." I shrugged because I was surprised by that too.

One thing I loved about Seth was that we had such comfortable silences. It had been another 10 or so minutes when Mom called up telling us lunch was ready. As soon as I walked out the bedroom door I was greeted with the smell of pea soup, one of Leah's favorites. The lunch was a quiet one, mostly because we could all see the new tear trails down Leah's face.

No one said anything at all until there was a knocking at the door. I didn't pay attention to anything that was going on between mom and whoever she was talking to until I heard the familiar voice of my 'dad' swearing at her. Slamming my spoon down I sat up from the table.

"YOU DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT TALK TO HER LIKE THAT!" He smirked at me before grabbing my ear and dragging me across the Clearwater's yard and onto ours, then into our house.

After throwing me down onto the couch my mom appeared next to him. "We're going down to the courthouse to finalize the divorce and set up all the arrangements. You'll be staying with your father and I get to be a free woman!" She smiled largely the entire time. I wanted to yell GOOD FOR YOU. But then I thought better of it.

"Okay… Why'd I have to be dragged over to hear this?"

Scott shrugged. "So you know who you'll be living with?"

"Thanks… I guess. Can I go back to the Clearwater's after you guys leave?" Julie rolled her eyes and walked out to her car and zoomed off. Scott came up to me lifted me off the couch, so I was standing, then punch me in the gut full force.

"You ungrateful little bitch. Run off to your friends, but make sure you're back by 6 to make dinner." I gasped and nodded, before watching him walk out, leaving me on the floor gasping for breath. It took me a good hour or so for me to be back to normal, besides the throb still happening in my tummy, but at that point I got up and walked over to the Clearwater's.

Mom, Leah and Seth were all scurrying quickly into the car. I rushed up as fast as I could, luckily catching Seth's attention so he could stop mom from speeding away. "What happened?" I asked quickly taking in all of their faces. Each face had it's own mask of horror.

"Emily had been attacked by an animal." I gasped and she looked at Leah before continuing. "Someone… brought her to the hospital in Forks."

I threw open the door and climbed in beside Seth. "Hit the gas!" I called as soon as my seatbelt was buckled. Sue did as I said and soon we were speeding off towards Emily.

Leah's Point of View.

As soon as mom had stopped the car I jumped out and ran towards the entrance to the hospital. Once I got to the desk I was greeted by a plump woman with a smile on her face. Why was she smiling?

"Emily Young? Where is she?"

"She's not ready for visitors. The doctor is still with her. Stay in the waiting room please, the doctor will be out to see you as soon as he can."

"Okay…" With that I turned and headed to the arrangement of seats known as the waiting room. Sam was there, pacing back and forth with puffy eyes as if he had been crying. I know he had found Emily but it made him cry? She must be in worse shape than I thought. I sat in a seat across the room, so I wouldn't have to urge to get up and hug him. When mom, Seth, and Sky walked into the door I ushered them over to me.

Sky was first to speak. "How is she? Where is she?"

I took a deep breath before speaking. "I don't know how she is, she's with a doctor right now, and he'll come out and tell us how she is." My eyes kept drifting over to where Sam was pacing.

Sky had to be the observant one and she followed my gaze and saw him. At first I could tell she didn't recognize him because of all the muscles he had somehow grown into while he was gone but as soon as she saw his face I knew she knew it was him.

She got up, stormed over to him and started hitting him. "You. Stupid. Stupid. Boy!" The weird part is that he wasn't doing anything to stop her.

I got up and walked over to them. Grabbing both of Sky's wrist and whispered in her ear. "Baby Sky, it's okay. Stop hitting S-" his name caught in my throat and I felt my eyes filling with tears. "Sam."

I blinked away the tears as I listened to Sky. "But he- I hate him!"

"Sweetie you don't hurt people when you hate them. You don't have to even acknowledge them, but you DO NOT hit them, okay?" She nodded and walked back to Seth, glaring at Sam every step she took. I continued looking down at my feet as I talked to Sam. "I'm sorry about her…"

He used his finger to lift my chin so I was forced to look into his beautiful brown eyes. "Don't be sorry Lee Lee." I winced as he used my nickname. "I'm sorry about everything. I wish things could work out but they can't."

As I felt a single tear fall down my cheek I turned and walked back to my seat. It was about a half an hour later when a very handsome blonde doctor walked into the waiting room. His eyes were a weird topaz that I've never seen before. I heard a growl coming from Sam's direction and I couldn't help but feel confused.

"Emily Young's family?" I immediately stood up, listening to the velvet sound of his voice.

"That's us." My mom called out from our corner and we all walked up to him.

"Hello, nice to meet you all." His lips moved again but no words seemed to escape his mouth. He shook our hands, and I was surprised that his hand was so cold. "My name is Dr. Cullen."

"Oh hello. How's Emily?"

He frowned a little before smiling. "She will be fine. She lost a lot of blood, but she's getting infusions now. The scratches were stitched up and bandaged. Emily is sedated and will wake up at some point tomorrow."

"Can we go in and see her?"

Nodding he said, "Make sure you don't make too much noise. Room 118."

As soon as he said it I was already on my way to the room. I stood out side the door just staring for a moment before opening the door slowly. When I saw Em there was no one for me to hold back the gasp. There was thick bandages covering the entire right side of her face and her right arm. What had happened to her. Slowly I made my way to her side, picking up a chair on the way over. Everyone else, I think, followed me into the room but I wasn't paying attention to them. I'm pretty sure I had been a couple hours before anything had happened.

"Mom," Sky said quietly.

"Yes sweetie?"

"Scott says I have to be home by 6." Its funny because I heard a few sounds coming from Seth, me, and whoever else was in the room, that sounded like growling. Honestly if it was better circumstances I would've laughed.

"Scott? What do you mean Scott? Is he back?" My eyes stung again as I heard the voice. So it was Sam who was in the room. Why was he still here?

"Not that it's any of your business but yes he is back." Sky's voice was very cold and I must say I was proud of her.

Mom was next to speak. "Well, why don't I bring you home?" She seemed to think about it for a moment. "The doctor said she wouldn't wake up today so why don't we all go home and get some rest? We can come back tomorrow morning."

I nodded getting up and I placed a kiss on Em's cheek. "Get better cuz." After everyone else said goodbye to Emily we headed out to the car, leaving Sam the only one with her.

The rest of the night seemed to go by in a blur. We got home, got a call from dad saying he had a very important Elder's meeting to attend tonight , we ate something, and then went to bed. I had hoped that I would finally have a dreamless sleep, but of course I wasn't that lucky.

I was sitting in the corner of the hospital room looking at the hospital bed. It was Emily. She had the same bandages on but she was awake.

Sam leaned over and kissed her on the cheek. "Em, I was so worried, I-I thought I was going to lose you. Leah doesn't matter anymore. Your mine and I'll love you forever."

I woke up gasping for air. All of the dreams I've been having were the same, and they were more like nightmares. They all had Sam in them, telling some girl that he loves her an I that I don't matter. That's probably true though, I don't matter, at all.

Shaking off the dream I went to take a shower, preparing myself for the day.

Since I had woken up at 6 it took a few hours for everyone to be ready. Before we left thought I decided to go get Sky.

"I'll be right back mom! I'm going to go get Sky." With that I jogged over to the neighbors and knocked loudly on the door.

I heard shuffling behind the door before it opened revealing the disgusting man, also known as Scott. "Hello." He said looking me up and down. Creep.

"Hi… Is Sky home?" His face changed into a look of anger before he composed himself.

"She can't go out today. Sorry." And with that he shut the door in my face.

I walked over to the car where my family was loading in. "Where's Sky?" Seth asked, completely concerned.

I shrugged. "Her dad said she can't go out today." No one asked anymore questions as we drove to the hospital. Once we got there I went straight for her room. It was empty, except for her so I sat in my chair next to her.

I grabbed her hand and sat back against my chair. A few minutes later I saw her lips moving. I leaned closer and heard only one word. "Sam." With that single word I could feel daggers effectively ripping through my torso. I let go of her hand and sprinted out of the room, tears filling my eyes. I ran into my family, who all looked shocked and quickly apologized before continuing my sprint out of the hospital. Before I could get out the front doors though I collided with something very warm. But after I collided with whoever it was I felt a searing hot liquid pour down the front of me. Great. I looked up into the persons face only to be greeted by him.

I hit him a good few times before I felt my face change into what probably looked like an expressionless mask and said the only words I could manage. "Looks like she wants you." The tears stopped coming and I quickly shook off his hold of me and walked out the doors. Not once did I turn around, not once did another tear fall. I practically felt my emotions shutting off as I walked the distance to my house.

There was no way I was going to let anyone else hurt me.
