S-JPOV (Sarah-J)

At that moment I knew I was falling and hard for Sam Uley.


*****************
LPOV (Leah)

** Flashback **

I stared at the spot Sarah – J had just been for a few minutes, a frown on my face god I hope she's ok. I turned around and faced Sam he was staring at the door with a look of concentration on his face, the one that signified he was deep in thought. I walked over to him and sat in his lap, my arms going around his neck. I placed a kiss on his muscled shoulder before I rested my cheek there tilting my head so I could see his eyes.

He wrapped his arm around my waist and looked down at me, I could see pain flash across his features before his face turned into and emotionless mask so quickly I almost missed it.

"You ok Sam? Your have been awfully quiet all night. Did you not like my cousin?" I asked him concern ever dent in my voice.

"I'm fine Leah. And your cousin is wonderful." he snapped his emotionless mask turning into one of anger. I flinched away from him hurt cascading though me What had I done? I felt tears prickle my eyes. His face switched to the emotionless mask again his eyes showing that of regret.

"God, Lee-Lee I'm so sorry I didn't mean to snap at you" his quilt also quite ever dent in his tone.

"it's ok Sam I know you didn't mean it" I whispered my head going to rest on his shoulder again, but before I could he stood up and turned around placing me on a sitting position on the wooden chair. He started pacing back and forth in front of me. I got up and put a steady hand on the thick muscle of his right bicep, he stopped and looked down at me.

"what's wrong Sam?" I asked him my eyes searching his face trying to find some emotion that would explain what had gotten him so worked up.

"I'm so sorry" he whispered brokenly tears gathering in his eyes.

"About what Sam?" I asked him starting to get panicky Sam never cries.

"I-i-" he stuttered, struggling to find the right words to use. I waited patiently giving he bicep a comforting squeeze.

"I didn't mean for it to happen, it's suppose to be rare, I thought it would never happen. I'm so sorry, you have no clue how sorry I am, I - " he started rambling I stopped him mid ramble.

"What are you talking about?" my voice getting shaky something was definitely wrong what didn't he mean to happen? And why did he keep apologising to me?

"I can't be with you anymore Leah" he said, emotion clear from his voice and face. I stumbled back a few steps as if I had been bunched in the stomach my hand leaving his bicep. I felt cold tears start to slide down my cheek.

"Your breaking up with me?" I asked my voice barley above a whisper I wasn't sure if he would hear it.

"Yes" he answered completely emotionless. "I'm so s-" he started to say again before I cut him off.

"don't you DARE say your SORRY Sam" I screamed at him tears now streaming down my face. He took a step towards me his eyes pleading.

"DON'T YOU DARE TRY AND TOUCH ME SAMUEL ULEY" I screamed taking another couple steps back.

" GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE! AND YOU CAN TAKE YOUR RING WITH YOU" I spat hatefully as I pulled the engagement ring off my finger and threw it at him, he caught it with perfect ease.

"Lee" he whispered tears forming gain in his own eyes.

"DON'T YOU FUCKING 'LEE' ME YOU ASSWHOLE GET. THE. FUCK. OUT" I screeched. He nodded his head once and turned to the door, he stopped at the door way and look over his shoulder at me whispered a broken sorry before turning and running out of the house.

I felt my knees buckle as I hit the ground with a thud I pulled my knees to my chest and started rocking back and forth as sob's racked through my body.

** End of Flashback **

Over the next few months Emotion started leaving all of my body being only replaced with excruciating pain, then a blackness started surrounding me taking away all the pain and leaving me in a complete numbness, void of emotion the only thing I could feel was emptiness.

My mom, dad and Seth could hardly be around me. My friends had already started to slowly drift away. Sarah – J hadn't returned any of my calls and when I went to the cabin to see her, there was nothing there no belongings no nothing. I didn't see Sam and for that I was grateful.

Slowly I was changing sweet,kind, caring Leah was disappearing and bold, bitchy, emotionless Leah was taking her place.


S-JPOV (Sarah-J)

I was discharged from the hospital a few days after I was admired, the bandages had come off a few weeks or so ago.

** Flashback **

I was staying with Sam at his house he had insisted I do so as I healed, so he could keep and eye on me but I think it was mainly because he didn't want to be with me all the time which I didn't mind. He had told me about what happened with Leah and held me when I broke down cry, hating my self for doing this to her, Sam insisted it wasn't my fault that it was out of our control. I tried to believe him, I really did but I knew deep down that it was my fault.

I had hurt Leah so much and I knew she would never forgive me, Uncle Harry being on the council of elders which knew all about Sam being a werewolf and him imprinting on me kept us updated on how she was doing, he didn't hate me or Sam surprisingly he had said we didn't mean to hurt his daughter and knew that family was the most important thing in my life and always had been and that I would rather die than do anything to intentionality hurt them.

Since then it had been horrible rejecting leah's phone calls nut I knew it was for the best, she didn't know about Sam and I, because I had insisted that I would not leave the house until I was completely healed again.

Not that there was anything going on between Sam and I because I had insisted that we take baby steps and get to know each other first which is what we had been doing since, staying up all hours when Sam wasn't partroling la push keeping it safe from vampires. And just talking about anything and everything. Over the course of a few days I found my self falling more in love with him each time I found out something new about him.

But today I was taking the bandages off, the stitches would have to stay in for another week or so because of how deep the cuts were, I didn't mind I was happy about being able to see out of both of my eyes again. Sam on the other hand was completely freaking out saying he didn't want to see them didn't want to see the evidence of what he had done, I of course had pulled him into a hug and told him I didn't blame him and couldn't care less about the scars.

Which brings us to where we are now, standing in front of the bathroom mirror Sam standing in front of me ready to take the bandages off, I was a little nervous about what they would look like but I knew as long as I had Sam by my side everything would be fine.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Sam asked for what seemed the hundredth time in the space of an hour.

I sighed "yes Sam, I'm sure the same thing I have been telling you for an hour straight" I said rolling my eyes. He smiled a beautiful half smile at me and my heart melted.

"sorry I'm just nervous that's all" he said his smile vanishing, being replaced with a frown and a look of pain and regret in his eyes.

"Samuel Uley, don't you dare blame your self it was an accident" I demanded putting my hand on his cheek to which he automatically leaned into.

"sorry" he said with a sigh, "let's do this." he tried to smile but it didn't reach his eyes. I pulled my hand off his cheek, sucked in a calming breath after my nerves decided this would be a great time to show.

"I'm ready" I spoke just above a whisper. Slowly his brought his hand came up to the side of my face brushing my hair off my face and shoulder as he put his fingers to the top of the bandage. I closed my eyes a I felt him start to pull the bandage off.

I herd his sharp intake of breath and what sounded like a choked sob, my eyes snapped open but snapped back shut just as fast because of the bright light, the doctor had said this would happen after being covered for so long my right eye would need a minute or to to adjust. I opened my eyes again slower this time my eyes straight away connected with Sam's, I could see the pain as tears slipped down his cheeks, shoulders shaking as quiet sob's racked his body.

"move please, I need to see" My voice betrayed the fake calmness I had put in place even though I knew Sam could see straight though it. He went to protest but stopped when I glared at him. He slowly moved out of the way I watched his movement keeping my eyes away from the mirror that was now visible to me. I closed my eyes and turned toward the mirror and sucked in a deep calming breath or two Sam who obviously seeing my worried face put a warm hand on my shoulder.

I slowy opened my eyes and realised the breath I didn't know I was hold. There staring back at me was a woman I could hardly recognise, deep bags under her eyes from many restless nights, eyes that held so much knowledge but at the same time held a certain maturity.

Four long scars barley visible because of the black stitches, but even then I could tell they were deep. They started at the middle of my forehead going from the start of my hair line and finishing where my chin and jaw line where. One thankfully had missed my eye, stopping at my eyebrow and starting just under my bottom eyelash, then continuing down my face to my lips, which amazingly the same sort of thing had happened only slightly, barley noticeable unless you were really looking, my bottom lip was pulled down. But like I said barley noticeable. I slowly with my right hand brushed my fingertips every so lightly over the stitches and spoke softly my voice just above a whisperer.

"I thought it would be worse" my voice cracking slightly at the end but I didn't cry, because honestly to me they weren't that bad I could live with them, not that I had a choice.

"are you ok?" Sam asked I could see the crease of worry in his eyebrow though the mirror. I turned around to face him putting the hand I was using to touch my scars on his cheek and gazed into his eyes.

"I am perfectly fine" my voice no longer sounding weak and shallow. I could see confusion flash across his eyes, but before he could ask 'why' I continued "they honestly don't, care about them Sam. I don't care about what people think, the only opinions that matter to me are yours and mine" I knew he could hear the truth behind my words, because he didn't try and interrupt me once.

"I think your beautiful" he whispered as he slowly traced my scars with his fingers, his eyes traced my face as if he was trying to memorize it. I felt a warmth spread though me like it always did when he touched me but this time it was mainly to do with his words instead of his touch. When his eyes locked with mine I saw something I had never seen in his eyes. Love.

"kiss me" I whispered my voice for what seemed like the thousandth time today a whisper. He eyes searched mine trying to find any hesitation, when he found none he leaned toward me. My eyes fluttered close as felt his breath wash over my senses, it smelt like coco from the hot chocolate we had had and hour before hand. And lightly every so lightly he presed his full lips to mine.

** End of Flashback **

Since then Sam and I had officially become a couple, we had our dates inside because I still refused other than going to the doctors, that I wouldn't leave the house until the stitches were gone. He had told me he loved me on our third 'date' and I without hesitation had told him I loved him too. He was over the moon he literately picked me up and spun me around before giving me such a passionate kiss.

I was happy, I was getting my stitches out in a few days, Sam said he had already planed to take me out on a proper date when I was ready and I couldn't wait. Life was getting better with each passing day. But with that fact I still missed Leah and wished that as soon as she found out, she could hopefully over time learn to forgive me.
