Pov: Bella
As we drove to the Leah's house, everything that had happened today played in my head on a loop, and all I could think about was how everything that had happened was my fault, I almost started a war, and I was causing Leah so many problems, and I knew that she would have been better of imprinting on someone else.
"Bella are you ok."
"I'm fine, why?"
"You're just being really quiet."
"I'm just tired."
I could tell she didn't believe me, but she didn't push me to tell her and I loved that, Edward was always making me tell him everything but she doesn't and I love that. When we finally pulled up to the house I wondered how upset sue was about what had happened, but as soon I walked inside she walked over and hugged me.
"It's about time you we got home, I have been worried sick. Why didn't you call and tell me what happened?"
Sue was definitely upset set and worried, but not at what happened, she was upset that we didn't call her.
"I'm sorry mom, and as you can see she is ok, she's just tired."
"Well you won't mind if I see for myself now doing you."
With that I showed that I only had a few cuts and bruises.
"I'm so sorry this happened to you Bella." as she said that she looked me in the eyes. "And I wish I could tell you it was all going to be ok." she was right, this was just the beginning, and while Edward now knew the about Leah imprinting on me that didn't mean he was ok with it. Leah and him were ready to kill each other today and that hasn't changed if anything, it was no worse, and I had know idea what I was going to do to fix it. " You look tired here Leah will help her to the guest room."
Once I was in the room, I got changed and laid down and tried to get some sleep, but that wasn't as easy as I had hoped, I just keep thinking about what happened and what was going to happen with Edward and Leah. Not to mention any time I moved there was a sharp pain. I wasn't sure when I finally fell asleep, but when I work up the next morning I fond Leah asleep on the floor, she most have spent the night watching over me, which made to feel like a child. I decided not to wake her so I got up carefully and made my way to the kitchen, It was really early so I figured everyone was still asleep, but when I walked in the kitchen I saw that sue was already up and making breakfast.
"Bella what are you doing up, here sit down."
I should have known sue would be up, she and Charlie were both up before the sun.
"I'm ok do you need any help?"
"I'm fine here now sit down."
I knew she wouldn't take no for an answer so I did as she asked, she then went back to cooking. As I sat there watching her I couldn't stop myself from think about how she must hate that Leah imprinted on me.
"I'm sorry."
"What?"
I didn't realize I had said that out loud until I heard her speak. "It was nothing."
"Bella if something is bothering you please tell me."
"I'm sorry because its my fault, I put Leah in danger and almost started a war, and know that Leah would have been better off is she had never imprinted on me."
She was silent for a minute and I wasn't sure what she was thinking.
"I'm so happy you're the one she imprinted on, you have helped bring her back to who she was before Sam broke her heart. As for putting her in danger, Bella every time she is out patrolling with the ethers she is in danger, only now, thanks to you she has a reason to becarful." when she said that I felt a tear on my cheek and It was then that realized I was crying, she then walked over to me. "Bella this isn't your fault, and I understand this is very confusing for you, you'll drown in so many different directions that you don't know what to do, but please don't blame yourself for what is going on."
Sue was amazing she had so many reasons to be mad at me, but she wasn't in stead she was worried about me.
"Thank you."
"You don't have to thank me Bella you are a part of my family and I'm always here for you." as soon she she said that we both herd a door slam followed by someone running towards the kitchen it was then that I heard last voice.
"Mom Bella's not in her room did she... Oh, you're in here." I could help but smile as I saw the look on her face when she saw me. "whats going on?
"Nothing and if you break that door your in big trouble."
Leah just rolled her eyes at her mom and walked over to me.
"Are you ok."
"Are you ok?"
"I'm fine, I thought you might have gone home is all and I was a little worried."
"That's you a little worried."
She just ignored what I said and turned to her mom"what's for breakfast."
She was trying to hide how worried she was and it made me smile. She then helped her mom finished breakfast, and by the time they were done Seth had woken up so we all went to the table to eat. But as we ate breakfast, I noticed that Seth was staring at me, and I wasn't the only one so did Leah.
"Seth why are you staring at Bella."
"Sorry Sam told me she got in a fight with a vampire and I was surprised that she was ok."
When he said that, I wonder what Sam had told everyone about what happened.
"It wasn't a fight."
"Then what happened."
Leah started talking before I could tell him what had happened. "Well, she told the Leah about me imprinting on her and he throws her to the ground and then put herself Inbetweening him and me so I couldn't kill him."
It was easy to see she was mad and I couldn't blame her, so I told everyone that I needed some air and walked outside, and as I did I heard sue start saying something to Leah but I didn't listen I just needed a moment. It was cold outside, but felt nice, on my injuries. It was long before Leah came out to find me and as she walked up to me I could tell she was upset.
"Bella I'm..."
I didn't let her finish. "Don't." as I said that she froze and I could tell she thought I was mad at her. "Plead don't say your sorry, I'm the one that needs to be apologizing to you." she was deftly confused now. "Leah you told me it was a bad Idea to tell him and I did, all I have done is make your life so much worse, you should hate me, and You deserve someone better than me."
She didn't say anything so I started walking back to the house, but then she stopped me.
"You're so wrong, you have given me so much, I used to think that I was cursed, between Sam leaving me for Emily, and what happened to my dad it seemed like I was losing everything. And the only thing I could feel was pain, and anger, but then I imprinted on you, and at first I was worried, but then I spent time with you and I found that I could be happy again and that I'm not cursed." as she said that she looked me in the eyes. "And I'm faring better off with you than I was when I was all alone, and no matter what happens with us I will always be thankful you were the one I imprinted on."
I'm not sure what but the next thing I knew I was kissing Leah.
Pov: Leah
After what happened, I was worried about Bella so I decided to sleep on the floor just in case she needed anything, but all through the night I watched as she tossed and turned and I knew it was from the pain she was in and it mad wants to hurt that stupid leach so much more. When I woke up the next morning I got up to check on Bella, but and that's when saw that she wasn't in bed, I started freaking out, and my first thought was that she had got up early and went home. So I rushed out of the room, slamming the door behind me, I then made my way to the back door to see if her truck was still here and that's when I had my moms voice coming from the kitchen so I when to see if she knew where Bella was.
"Mom Bella's not in her room did she... Oh, you're in here." when I saw that Bella was in the kitchen with my mom, I got embarrassed that she had seen me like this."what's going on?"
"Nothing and if you break that door your in big trouble." I just rolled my eyes at my mom and made my way over to Bella.
"Are you ok Bella."
"Are you ok?"
"I'm fine, I thought you might have gone home is all and I was a little worried."
"That's you a little worried." I hated making fool of myself so I decided to change the subject.
"What's for breakfast."
My mom just ignored my questing so decided to help her cook hoping everyone would forget what I had just done. Once we had finished breakfast we all sat down to eat, but as we were eating I noticed that Seth was staring at Bella and it was a little creepy.
"Seth why are you staring at Bella."
"Sorry Sam told me she got in a fight with a vampire and I was surprised that she was ok."
"It wasn't a fight." when I heard she saw that I got upset, he had hurt her and was acting like it wasn't a big deal.
"Then what happened."
"Well, she told the Leach about me imprinting on her and he throws her to the ground and then put her self I'm beating him and me so I couldn't kill him."
As soon as I said that Bella said she needed some air, and I was going to go out with her when my mom stopped me.
"Seth will you give us a moment." seeing the look on my moms face, he did ask why he just got up and left. "What are you doing, Bella is blaming herself for every thing that happened, she even thinks you would have been better off if you hadn't imprinted on her."
"She what."
"Leah, she is lost and has no idea what to do next, she thinks she is hurting you. And seeing you upset with her about what happened.."
"I'm not upset with her."
"That's not what it looked like"
I felt like hitting myself, I didn't think about how it sounded before I said it and now I had hurt her. So I decided that I needed to talk to her so I made my way outside and over to where she was.
"Bella I'm..."
"Don't." I froze when I heard her say that "please don't say your sorry, I'm the one that needs to be apologizing to you." I was confused why did she need to apologize to me. "Leah you told me it was a bad Idea to tell him and I did, all I have done is make your life so much worse, you should hate me, and You deserve someone better than me."
This was crazy who could she think that, it was crazy, and I didn't know what to say, but when I saw her start to walk away I stopped her.
"You're so wrong, you have given me so much, I used to think that I was cursed, between Sam leaving me for Emily, and what happened to my dad it seemed like I was losing everything. And the only thing I could feel was pain, and anger, but then I imprinted on you, and at first I was worried, but then I spent time with you and I found that I could be happy again and that I'm not cursed. And I'm faring better off with you than I was when I was all alone, and no matter what happens with us I will always be thankful you were the one I imprinted on."
She looked like she was going to cry, and then out of no where she kissed me. And it was like everything stopped, it didn't last long but I didn't care I was amazing, and as she pulled away and looked at me I could tell she was as surprised as I was.
"Bella."
"Yes."
"You just..."
"I know and I'm I'm not sure why I did, It just happened, are you mad?"
"Are you kidding, I loved it, but are you ok with what just happened."
"I think so after all I'm the one that kissed you right." as she said that I smiled. "We should talk inside."
"Yeah, that's a good idea."
