I've had the highest mountains. I've had the deepest rivers

"Mat' ya dolzhen skazat' vam chto-to, no ya ne khochu, chtoby vy slishkom vzvolnovany o tom, chto ya sobirayus' skazat." I had decided that it was time that I tell my mother about Seth. I was busy, looking over and editing a few photos, trying to ignore the feeling that I needed to tell her. Seth and I had talked almost every day, me staying up until I could barely stay awake any longer and Seth, whispering goodnights to me until I had ended the call and drifted off to sleep.
My mother needed to know before she found out some other way and then she would be hurt that I didn't tell her. She would really be angry and she would hold harsh feelings towards me, daughter or not. I knew that this was a subject that she was passionate about.
"Priyezzhayut syuda, dorogaya . Davayte pogovorim." I smiled and sat beside my mother on the couch. She sat there knitting, something that I felt she was too young for, but she always hushed me when I spoke my feelings and continued with her knitting.
"Mat' ya dolzhen skazat' vam, chto ya mozhet ili ne mozhet byt' v otnosheniyakh . YA vstretil kogo-to. Yego zovut Set , i on yavlyayetsya odnim iz samykh smeshnykh , samykh sladkikh , samykh iskrennikh lyudey, kotorykh ya kogda-libo vstrechal . My poshli na neskol'ko dat , i teper' ya dumayu, chto my mozhem byt' v otnosheniyakh." My mother sat there, looking at me and she put down her knitting needles and her yarn and put her hand on top of mine.
"Dorogaya, ya rad, chto vy nashli kogo-to, no vy dolzhny znat' , chto mne nuzhno vstretit'sya s etim chelovekom . Mne nuzhno . Mne nuzhno znat', yesli on budet khoroshim ottsom dlya moikh vnukov. Moy otets, tvoy ded , pust' on pokoitsya s mirom , ne dal by mne yego blessing dlya vstupleniya v brak , poka on ne byl absolyutno uveren , chto eto chelovek, kotorogo ya khotela vyyti zamuzh bylo dostatochno khorosho dlya menya." I groaned and threw my head back against the back of the couch and felt like everything I said about him and I barely dating had been thrown out the window.
"Mother! I did not say I was going to marry him! I don't even know if we're in a relationship or not! I was just telling you!" My mother nodded and picked up her knitting needles again and went back to her knitting, ignoring what I had just said. My mother had signalled the end of our discussion and I had to stop myself from throttling her.

It had been a while since we had a real dangerous threat around Forks and La Push. The patrols were lessened and we felt ourselves relax and fall back into a casual pace, especially in the pack. The most exciting things that had happened in the past few weeks, even months, had been the wedding planning that Kim and Jared were doing, and the Russian imprint that I had.
While I didn't mind having some time to myself and being able to relax more, I had taken Ami out on a few dates, in my spare time, I had missed the action. I missed being able to run after a leech and the thrill I felt after helping exterminate it. But now it seemed like all we had ever gotten, were the Cullen's coming to and from our land. That was about it.
"Seth! We're back! Leah looks beautiful in her dress. Not that that's surprising." My mom grinned and drug a frowning Leah behind her. It was tough on Leah, being one of the few wolves to not have an imprint. I knew what it was like, knew being past tense, and I felt her pain. I knew what she was going through.
"I hate it. Kim has terrible fashion sense." I grinned and leaned against the cupboards, waiting for the opportune moment to tell my mom the news I had.
"Oh she does not, Leah. Just because you don't like dresses doesn't mean anything. Kim made an amazing choice. The dresses are beautiful." Beautiful. My mom didn't know what beautiful was. I watched my mom putter around the house, and I waited. I still waited. I wanted to make sure she was finished what she was doing.
"You gonna tell her you humped your imprint on a cupboard and against your car?" Leah spoke beside me, and I went rigid. I dug my nails into my hands and tried to keep myself calm. I had to remind myself to take deep breaths.
"You don't know what you're talking about." The image of us kissing while I held her against a cupboard flashed into my mind. The feeling of having her body flush to mine, made my body come alive with electricity. I admit that we were close and we had a heated moment, but Leah was mistaken. It was just a heated kiss.
"I was joking numb-nuts. I don't care what or who you do, but next time hide your thoughts better. You're damn lucky it was just me and you patrolling last night. You think Jared would want to see you pressing his soon-to-be-wife's cousin up against a cupboard with your tongue down her mouth? Or Sam? Sam would kill you if he saw knew you were doing that. He expects you to act better than Paul. Mom expects you to act better." I frowned and leaned back against the cupboard. Leah had a damn good point.
"I know I don't act like it, but I am happy for you." She gave my arm a hard punch, before she left me alone and made her way outside, probably going for a run.
"Seth? Leah said you needed to tell me something?" I looked at my mom and smiled, feeling my excited mood come back to me.
"I'm in a relationship." My mom smiled and came and gave me a hug and I returned it. The hug only lasted for a minute before she pulled back.
"I need to meet my future daughter in law." I rolled my eyes and stepped away from my mom. I knew she was joking, but there was a lot of truth behind what she had said. I knew that Ami and I would be married one day. It was only a matter of time.

His name is Seth and he is one of the funniest, sweetest, most sincere people I had ever met. We've gone on a few dates and now I think we may be in a relationship.

I need to. I need to know if he will be a good father for my grandchildren. My father, your grandfather, may he rest in peace, would not give me his blessing for marriage until he was absolutely certain that this man I wanted to marry was good enough for me.

Okay so first things first, so sorry for the wait. Things were going left, right and center, and I feel like I am finally on the right track and can get back into writing. Secondly, this chapter is a bit different, and I purposely had Ami and Seth feel like they were in different places for a reason. Third and finally, I need to somehow come up with an antagonist. Okay, ramblings over.
