Chapter 6

Bella P.O.V.

'I found her!' I practically screamed in my mind. This was her, my savior, my wolf, my girl. 'Well she'll be mine soon' I think to myself. I'm surprised by my confidence but the way she's looking at me…it's like she's seeing the sun for the first time. 'She just…she makes me feel whole.' I nod to myself approving of my conclusion. It was true, it's like I gained a whole part of me that I didn't realize was missing until I looked into her eyes.

After a couple minutes she said something to the others without taking her eyes off me. I was glad I never wanted to look away. She started towards me dodging around the people between us without losing eye contact. As she got closer I could truly see how beautiful she was and I broke eye contact to look at her body…and that outfit.

It only took seconds and I knew my panties were soaked. Her skirt only went down to her upper thighs. Her long luxurious legs were perfectly toned. 'mmm' I thought to myself. My eyes continued their journey up her body only to stop again at her stomach. Her shirt was riding up showing a bit of her midriff and I subconsciously licked my lips at the site of her copper-toned abs. My eyes stopped again at her chest. She wasn't huge, just a perfect handful. Around the size of myself I guess. Her lips, luscious and full, her smile…breathtaking. That left her eyes…they were deep soulful eyes that I couldn't help but get lost in. When I thought things couldn't get better…she proved me wrong. In seconds my whole world changed…it was the sound of the velvet smooth, perfect voice. "Hi, I'm Leah Clearwater."

Leah P.O.V.

We finally break eye contact and I notice her eyes roaming my body…I couldn't help but do the same. 'Damn, I can't believe how perfect she is.' She was wearing skin-tight faded black jeans. They looked like they were practically painted on. My eyes went up and found a light purple tank top that was almost as tight as the pants. I could see her perfect almost hourglass figure. I could even see exactly where I'll place my hands. 'Yes, I know I'm talking like I will do it…but the thing is I know I will. And damn it better be soon.' I continue my appraisal and my eyes meet her chest. She's looks to be a perfect handful not too big, not too small. I can't help but lick my lips at the thought of licking those stiff nubs until she squirms under me, I can't help but practically gush fluid, my panties are surely flooded. I finally make my way up to her lips. They are slightly out of proportion, the top one slightly larger than the bottom.

I can't help but think my lips will fit perfectly against them. Then I come to her eyes, those perfect deep chocolate brown eyes. And I get lost in them. After a few seconds I finally gather my thoughts enough to introduce myself. "Hi, I'm Leah Clearwater." Her smile lights up my world. 'I wonder to myself…does she remember me, I mean I know I look different. I got even taller and more muscular, not to mention I chopped off my hair.'

"Nice to meet you Leah, I'm Bella Swan." My heart skips a beat. 'So that's why whenever Jake would mention her this would happen.'

I lead her over to the nearest bench and we start talking. Everything is going great…and then she mentions the Cullens. I sigh and start to worry. 'Is it safe for her to be around them? I mean I know they don't drink human blood right? But what if they slip? No, no I'm not going to try to control her. I'll learn to deal…yeah that's it.' I notice that she stopped talking while I was having my internal rant as if she was waiting for me to object or say something about them. "What is it Bella?"

She shrugged. "I just figured you'd be telling me all about how I shouldn't spend time with them…everyone else on the res does."

I laugh lightly. "Yeah, I guess there's some bad blood between us." I giggle at my inside joke and I notice she does too…almost like she knows. 'Does she? That would make things so much easier.'

"Bella, I don't want you to think I'm like crazy or something but do you believe in…" I take a deep breath preparing myself for when she calls me crazy and runs away never to see me again. "vampires." 'This is it' I tell myself. I stare at the ground waiting for her to run, when I don't hear anything I look up and she's still there.

A knowing look in her eyes and she nods slowly before she speaks. "I know, about everything." I let out the breath I'd been holding. Not only does she not run but she believes…she knows. She looked at me closely as if wanting to say something but afraid to.

"What is it Bella?" I ask cautiously.

"I know it was you Leah, that day in the woods." I gasp…she knows, about me, about everything like she says. I'm ecstatic because that means I don't have to hide anything.

Bella P.O.V.

We had been talking for hours when I finally gather the courage to say something about the Cullens I expect to hear what I have heard from everyone else on the res but no, my girl, 'wow am I still calling her that?' she just makes a joke about bad blood between the tribe and their family. I giggle along with her and she narrows her eyes in question.

Finally she asks. "Bella, I don't want you to think I'm crazy or something but do you believe in…" she takes a deep breath before she continues. "vampires." She quickly looks to the ground…I think she is waiting for me to run. 'Wow, she was afraid I would run from her…I couldn't…I wouldn't.'

She eventually looks up, I guess to see if I'm still there but I just look at her. "I know, about everything." She breathes out a long slow breath of relief.

I want to tell her that I know about her too… 'but what if she doesn't want me to know? Should I want for her to tell me?' "Bella, what is it?" her voice brings me out of my musings I take a moment and decide to just put it all out there. I tell her that I know it was her in the woods. She gasps, I'm guessing in surprise then she looks up at me and smiles…her smile is so bright I think I'll go blind but I can't look away. 'This is perfect.' I spoke too soon, just at that moment none other than Jacob Black pops up.

"Hey Bells!" his voice makes it seem he is just way too happy to see me. Almost as an afterthought he nods to Leah. "Leah."

I sigh. "Hi Jake." I look around like I'm slightly uncomfortable. Jake doesn't notice and starts talking but Leah, she sees it and interrupts Jake's rambling.

"Bella, come with me you just have to meet Emily." I smile and nod getting up to follow her, I know who Emily is…'I thought her and Emily didn't really speak anymore though…not after Sam.'

Leah P.O.V.

I was so happy that things were going so well. We were well on our way to becoming good friends. Hopefully it wouldn't be long before we became far more than that. Jake decided to pop up in the middle of our conversation and I was so happy when I noticed she didn't want to be around him. I quickly interjected and told her that she had to meet Emily. She had a confused look on her face for a moment then quickly got up to follow me.

I wonder for a moment how much she really knows but then her hand accidently brushes mine as we're walking and my brain stops working. I look over at her at the same time she looks at me and we both blush right red. 'I can't believe this…I'm Leah Clearwater, werewolf, not blushing school girl.' The blush slowly fades as we make our way to Emily. She quickly looks to my side and eyes me with a questioning look in her eyes. I nod with glee. 'Yes Emily, this is her! My imprint!' I sigh happily.

"Hey Em! I'd like you to meet someone." She nods and smiles. "This is Bella. Bella this is my cousin/best friend/sister Emily." Emily and Bella exchange greetings and talk for a few minutes while I just stand by and smile. Sam catches my eye and I nod. He smiles his good wishes and I nod my thanks. 'Things are so much easier between us since all this with Bella. Ah Bella she's so beautiful.'

"Leah. Hey Leah."

"Yeah Bella?"

She smiles when I turn to her. "I'm going to go say hi to some friends from school and I'm sure you want to talk to Emily." She looks a bit sheepish. "Umm…come find me in a bit?"

My smile gets even wider if possible and I nod. "See you soon Bella."

As she walks away my eyes follow her until she is swallowed up in the throng of people. I finally turn back to Emily, she's looking at me with a knowing look in her eyes. "I imprinted!" and I giggle…again.

"That's great Leah! I'm so happy for you." I nod dumbly too distracted with my thoughts of her. "Leah…" I look up sheepishly and she sighs in faux annoyance. "I remember how it feels Leah...so how's it going?"

My smile widens again. "It's going great! We're already talking like old friends…I've actually been with her since practically the beginning of the party." Emily nods for me to continue. "You know the best part?" her eyebrows raise in question. "She already knows everything." She gasps in surprise.

"What do you mean everything Leah?"

I'm sure I look a bit smug. "She remembers me from that day, when I saved her…she saw what I did. She also knows about the Cullens."

Now that got her attention. "The Cullens…really?"

I nod. "This means I don't have to hide anything from her. I was so worried that when I finally told her she would freak."

Emily nods in agreement. "That's great Leah…now get back to her." I grin and make my way in the direction she left.

Bella P.O.V.

'This is perfect' I think happily to myself. 'I finally found my wolf girl! Things are going great…we're already talking like old friends.' I start to make my way over to Angela and the others from school. "Hey Bella!" they all call to me.

I wave and push my way through the last of the crowd. "Hey guys!" I greet excitedly. Their eyebrows all raise in surprise…they know me as the quiet shy one and I laugh knowingly to myself.

"You seem to be having fun Bella." Angela asks me with a question in her eyes. I mouth to her 'later' she nods and smiles. 'I can trust Angela right…she's a true friend.' I decide I would tell her once I get her away from the others. I chat with them for a few minutes before I turn to Angela and tilt my head towards the edge of the crowd. She nods and gets up to follow me. When we reach the edge of the trees she turns on her heel. "Alright Bella, spill it."

I laugh and nod. "It goes back to the first day I was in Forks." I decide I'll tell her everything leaving the supernatural out of it. "When I first got into town after I unpacked and went for a walk on a trail I used to use when I was a kid. There is this clearing I always go to so I can just sit and relax."

She nods for me to continue. "Well I was just sitting out there and this man just appeared like out of nowhere." 'That's no joke.' I think to myself. "He was just plain creepy so I got up to run but you know me." She nods and bites her lip to stifle a laugh. "I made it like five steps and tripped. When I turned over he was hovering over me with his hand raised about to hit me. Then out of nowhere someone, whom I like to call my savior," I add with a chuckle. "Tackled him off me and fought him off. This person just kinda ran off after they saved me…still not really sure why." Angela nods enraptured in my story. "So that was like five months ago and I couldn't get them out of my mind…I didn't even fully know what they looked like as I only caught a glimpse."

I took a moment to catch my breath, just thinking about that man gives me chills. "I've spent months wondering who they were and if I would ever see them again…and well. I guess I kind of developed a crush." She smiles kindly. "Well, my savior was here tonight…"

Angela gasps. "So that's where you've been all night?"

I nodded. "And the crush…well let's just say it's already developing into so much more." I sigh dreamily.

She giggles at my dazed look until she realized I wouldn't snap out of it on my own. "…and?"

I shake my head to clear it of thoughts. "It was going great, I just wanted to spend a bit of time with you all from school…they should be coming to find me soon." She nods. "Angela, there's something else that I need to say. I just hope it doesn't bother you…you're one of my best friends." She nods and smiles with that kindness that I haven't seen from anyone else. I take a deep breath preparing to possibly lose one of my best friends. "The person that saved me…that I have a crush on. It's…a girl." She gasps.

I just hang my head waiting to hear how disgusting I am. How it's wrong for two women to be together and to be called all the names under the sun. That is until I feel her hand rubbing my back. "Bella." I keep my head down I can't see the disgust in her eyes. "Bella look at me." She says in the sternest voice she can summon up so I listen this time. Preparing myself for the worst I look up and see…understanding. I look at her confused. 'How could she understand unless…oh.' She nods and I know I was right.

I smile brightly. "Thanks Ang. I just really needed to tell someone besides Alice…she's great but well…you know." She nods laughing lightly. We continue talking for a while just catching up about my life…about her brothers antics. 'It's great to have a 'human' friend.' I tell myself.
