A/N In case you were wondering, yes. I did get that idea from the Lion King. Glad you guy's childhood is still live and well.
"Can I see you tomorrow?" He asked as I shimmied into my skinnies. I nodded without even thinking. A smile was brought to his face as I buttoned my pants and looked around for my t-shirt.
"Really?"
I nodded. "That is if my mom doesnt eat my ass alive for skipping."
He smirked and shook his head. "If you cant think of an excuse, just blame it all on me."
That was bold. I looked at him, confused. He just shrugged and laid back down. I noticed he put his boxers on backwards.
"Just say it was all that kid, Jacob Black's fault."
"Jacob, Im not gonna blame you."
"Why? It was all my idea."
"Yeah, but it wont seem right considering I couldve said no."
"But even if you do get in trouble, Leah, wont it all be worth it? You had a good time today right?"
I nodded. "I can only imagine what's planned for tomorrow."
"I'll think of something."
My smile widened and I leaned in for a kiss. He met me halfway and planted a soft one on my lips. My fingers tightened around the material of my shirt as the kiss got more intense. He smiled into our lips and it tickled. I pulled away and was presented with his soft eyes. He held me in place for a minute.
"Stay," he begged weakly.
"I gotta go," I whispered back.
He frowned and rolled his eyes. "Promise you'll be back?"
I thought. "How bout you come onto my turf?"
He nodded. "I just might take you up on that offer, Clearwater."
I lifted myself from atop of him and put my shirt back on. On my turn to leave, Jacob's strong hand swiped across the right side of my ass and I jumped. When I turned his grin was wide and an involuntary giggle left my voice box.
"Bye, Jacob." I muttered and shut his door behind me.
Now that the fairytale was over, I was now about to step into a hell of a reality.
My sneakers squeaked as I tried to enter the house quietly.
I shut the door lightly but failed to go unheard when my mom came rushing down the stairs, a frantic look on her face. She sighed and had her arms around me in an instant.
"Leah, where were you today? I got a call from your school saying you didnt come in. You wanna explain?" She demanded, hands on her hips. Seth strolled down the stairs with a huge grin on his smug little face. He liked seeing me in trouble. I rolled my eyes at him and he snickered. I stumbled around with my speech and tried to think of any possible excuse before blaming things on Jacob.
"I, ugh..got sick right after you guys left. I tried to get to school but I guess I mustve ate something..weird." I manged and my mom seemed to believe it for she nodded her head in agreement.
"Really? Why are you all wet?" Seth chipped in and I felt the need to slap the little punk look off his face. I hadnt realised my hair was still damp as were my clothes and shoes.
My mom turned to me for my expaination.
"I took a shower," I snapped back at him and he looked away in disappointment. My mother crossed her arms and looked me over suspiciously.
"Well, you shouldve called Leah. I dont want to believe you were skipping school," she began to walk away but Seth spoke again.
"Where did you just come from then?"
I mentally cursed myself and was ready to pin Seth against a brick wall. My mom seemed curious as well.
"I was getting my homework from Jacob." I smiled slyly at him and he growled.
"But why didnt-"
"I dont have time to be interviewed," I put my hand up to him and began to make my way up the stairs into my room. My mom shrugged and took in my story as if it were true. Seth groaned and stomp away into the living room. I heard my mother laugh.
Phew.
I plopped down on my bed and the springs and coils hit my back. I removed my clothes and bundled up in my bed for a warm spot. My window was wide open and it made me giggle frivolously.
Was I moving on?
Did one day with Jacob compare to the three years I spent with Sam? Why didnt I feel guilty anymore?
I was starting to think so.
I felt guilty about not feeling guilty but I was happy as hell.
Jacob's POV
I swear I could kiss her all day.
Her lips were so pink and plump and swollen from my kisses.
Her body had been brought alive and it wouldnt take long till she became addicted. Addicted like me.
And that's what I feared the most.
Never in a million years did I ever think that the little Leah I grew up with would turn into this feisty woman who I would one day deflower. I remember when we were younger, she would invite me out for bicycle rides and it would usually end up in her mouthing off to me or pushing me down. I had a crush on her.
I smiled at the memory and looked out my window.
Leah wasnt in sight but I still grinned anyway knowing tomorrow was gonna be a good day.
My mind jerked out of it's wonderland and I realized today was Friday. I had practise today. I had football practise everyday after school, including Saturdays.
It was nearing around four so my guess was that Couch had gone home already. Practise started a few minutes ago so I guess I could sneak in. Football wasnt just a sport, it was my life. Even if I did skip school today, I was still going to practise.
I put my gear on and headed towards to the front door, ready to recieve shit about being absent.
"Well, well, fucking well. Look who decided to show up? So sick couldnt come to school today, Black?" Embry teased as I entered the game in the middle of a play. Usually I wouldve rolled my eyes and gotten pissed but since I was in such a blissful mood, I just smiled and laughed along with him.
The guys made a bunch of jokes about how I actually wore my jersey this time. I let those jokes slide as well.
Finally after practice was over, more jokes were made in the locker room.
"Hey Jacob decided to wear his shirt today!"
"Hey, Black! Your nipples look a little erect to me!"
"Aww Jacob, why so shirtless?"
I smiled at them all and ignored the hatorade. I didnt care. Just as long as I had Leah all to myself tomorrow, I was content. As if one of them read my mind, Quil mentioned her.
"Maybe he's just strutting shirtless for his little girlfriend. Lee-ahh." He sang out her name and Sam's head jerked up.
He stayed silent as he listened to the rest of the team go on. I blushed.
"She's not my girlfriend," I said with a smirk. Sam continued to get dressed and I could tell he was trying to ignore us. Quil went on.
"Yeah right. You act like we dont see how you look at her?" He was nearly shouting and I saw Sam's jaw clench.
"Quil," I growled sternly. He shrugged.
"What? No need to get embarrassed. I doubt Im the only one whose stolen a few looks at her," his statement was backed up with nearly everyone on the team cheering in agreement. Sam was tying his shoes and doing his best to not say anything to him. Shouldnt he? That was his girlfriend.
"I mean c'mon. She's one of the rarest roses in this school of weeds. She's smart, funny and she's fucking cute as hell. What more can you ask for in a girl?"
I agreed as did the rest of the team.
"What I wouldnt give to get with her," Embry mumbled.
"Definitely girlfriend material," Paul added.
I took a glance at Sam as I readjusted my T-shirt. He was blushing hard and gathering his books together. I felt sympathy.
"But hey, Im only Quil Ateara. What would Leah Clearwater want with me?" He finished off sarcastically. Quil couldnt be more full of himself. I rolled my eyes at his conceit.
"Absolutely nothing," Sam finally said and the whole locker room burst with laughter. I couldnt help but chuckle as Sam left with a high chin and Quil with a sheepish grin.
I began to tie my shoes as well and was rushing now. I couldnt wait to get home to see Leah.
Leah POV
I found myself looking out the window, waiting for Jacob. I predicted he went off to practice so I figured I had time to shower, do my hair and find myself some cute pajamas that he'd like.
I never worked this hard for Sam. Simple jeans and a T-shirt.
But with Jacob, I feel as if my makeup has to be perfect. My breath had to be minty even if I hadnt eaten anything. My hair had to be in a certain style. He made me feel as if I had to just be in tact and flawless. I wanted to be...flawless for him. He deserved that.
Finally after rummaging around my drawers I ended up finding some tiny, blue Nike shorts and a white crop top. Ive never exposed so much skin but I felt as if I could. Ever since Jacob had taken my virginity, my body felt as if it had been brought to life. Jacob pushed all the right buttons and now I felt my arms, legs, back, neck, hands, feet, and everything else be reached to it's potential. My newly straightened hair was perfect as I brushed it out and watched the window. My mind was racing hard as he pulled in. His stereo was bassing loud and my chest tightened in delight. I smiled.
I waved at him and a smile stretched across his face as he waved back.
"Come up." I instructed. He nodded and he disappeared into his house. I fixed my bed and plopped down on it, landing in the sexiest position I could.
I sighed in happiness when I heard him knocking on the window. Skipping gaily over to the window, I saw that Jacob hung in the tree next to the glass.
"Why didnt you use the front door?" I asked as I unlocked the window.
"I thought this was hotter," he grinned and he wormed in, being sure not to step on my desk.
"You thought right."
He found that funny. His eyes grazed over my outfit in satisfaction. "Nice outfit," he complimented as he wrapped his arms around my torso.
"Thank you."
"You smell good," he added.
"Thanks. I took a shower," I informed him. He played with my hair.
"You straightened your hair."
"I did."
"Looks nice."
The easy conversation we were having seemed awkward. But as I looked into is huge, brown, knowing eyes, I knew we had a lot more to talk about. Until then, just standing here in his strong arms made words useless when our eyes said everything.
11:34pm
Jacob stroked the small of my back as I watched the TV. I wasnt paying much attention to what I was watching as his soft hands eased my spine. I loved the feel of it. Sam couldnt ignite this type of excitement in me. Jacob sent fire through my veins when he touched me. My mind and heart was racing at a million an hour. He made me feel good in ways I couldnt explain. How did I go from such a pup like Sam to getting with a wolf like Jacob?
"Enjoying your show?"
I nodded.
"Good," he purred and pulled my body back into his.
I relaxed on his chest and sighed happily. He kissed my hair.
A commercial came on and he started smooching on my neck. I pushed him off playfully and ignored him.
He tried again and I scooched away just to be funny. My plan back fired when he had me by my waist and was trying to tickle me. I giggled hysterically.
Before I could let him remove my clothes, I pushed his arms away and he still found some way to kiss my cheek.
I sighed and he whispered into my ear. "I love you."
I stopped and looked at him with my eyes wide and searching for assurance. He seemed totally sure of himself and even though he looked sure and ready, I knew that he was just saying he loved me. I knew Jacob all too well.
And since I knew this, I still let him remove his clothes and mine.
I lay my head peacefully on his chest and listened to his heartbeat. Thump, thump, thump.
It matched my own.
I assumed he was fast asleep so as I lay there in my own nude shame. My vision blurred and my eyeballs stung as the hot tears escaped my eyelids. I wiped each tears away hurriedly and sniffled. I didnt even wanna hear myself cry.
I sat up, careful not to disturb him. A few more tears fell before I had wiped them away with the back of my hand.
"Le-Leah?" He stirred for a minute but I turned away from him. I didnt want him to see me cry.
"Lee, what's wrong?" he asked.
"S-sorry. I-I didnt mean t-to w-wake you..." I stuttered and sniffled as the tears poured harder.
He gripped my elbow and tried to pull me near him. I rejected his touch and tried to wiggle free. He wouldnt have it.
"Why are you crying?" he demanded.
I didnt answer. He squeezed my elbow and I tried to snatch myself free. "Why are you crying?" he asked again.
"Im not," I insisted. He chuckled and eased his grip on my elbow.
"Leah, my sisters used to play that all the time. It's plain to see you're crying right now. Why are you crying," he asked a last time.
I wiped a few more tears but it seemed as if my eyes wouldnt stop leaking.
"I, just...Im-ugh, er..." I stammered.
"Le-ah-" he whined. "What's wrong?"
It took me a few minutes to get my answer out. This was kind of embarrassing.
"Im just like them," I sniffled.
"Like who?"
"Those little sluts," I finally said. His face twisted in confusion. He had no idea what I was talking about.
"Lee, what the hell are you-"
"Im just another lay in your big ol' book of sluts!"
"Leah, what are-"
"I love you?" I quoted him. "Come on Jacob, we both know you said that just to get me to take my clothes off. And guess what? It fucking worked! Ive never been more humiliated in my life."
"Leah, youre not a-"
"Dont even try and tell me Im not. What would you call a girl who cheats on her boyfriend with a guy she claims to hate?"
He tried to find the right words for what I had just said. "Leah, the difference between you and all the other girls Ive been with is that I actually care about you. Leah, Ive been with lots of girls but none of them have made me feel the way you do."
"Jacob-" I started but he stopped me.
"Just, shut up a minute!" He chuckled. "Youre the most...realest girl Ive ever been with. You're beauiful and funny and smart and every girl out there is all the same. Straight haired, ninety-eight pound, blond hair, blue eyes, American Eagle wearing, Facebook loving named Ashely or Taylor. It's nice to have someone who's...different."
"Im not...beautiful." I disagreed.
"Bullshit. Do you know that nearly all the guys on the team think youre pretty? And funny? Any of them would give anything to be your boyfriend. Or just to get you to look at them. They offer to give me rides home just to see you."
His last comment struck me by surprise. I always thought his friends found me disgusting. The cheerleaders always flashed me dirty looks. Now I knew why. Their boyfriends all had crushes on me. That made me smile considering I was always thought of myself as an outcast.
"Lee, I know that saying I love you was a bit much, but-"
I waited. He wiped a stray tear from my eye.
"Im so close to falling head over heels." He looked at me with gentle eyes and for good reasons, I believed him. Sam hasnt even said something so sweet to me before. He has said "I love you" millions of times before but never has it sounded so...genuine. He kissed my cheek.
"Ya know what Leah? Fuck everybody else, ok? Just remember us, ok?"
I sighed and a grin crept across my face. "There's an us?"
"Only if you want there to be one," he answered sheepishly.
I did...I did want an...us.
