I do not own Twilight

Gone

There was a time when men were kind,
And their voices were soft,
And their words inviting.
There was a time when love was blind,
And the world was a song,
And the song was exciting.
There was a time when it all went wrong...

I dreamed a dream – Les Miserables

Leah feel to her knees, crumbling like a dead weight. It was lucky Seth had been standing so close to her that he was able to catch her before her face collided with the ground. She was hyperventilating, her eyes were wide and her fingers were tightly yanking the front of her shirt like she couldn't breathe.

He'd imprinted. Jacob had imprinted. And not only that, but on Bella and Ice-dicks freaky mutant kid. After eight months of being with him, eight months of healing, opening up to him, falling in love with him, needing him like air, he was now being ripped away like fate's final hand in fucking up her life.

"Please-" She cried, holding tightly on to Seth's arm. "Take it back" She sobbed, her cries becoming almost manic. "Tell me you're lying and take it back" Shouting she buried her face in her brothers chest to try and make the pain go away but it wouldn't.

"I can't Lee. I'm so sorry – I can't" Seth's voice trembled as he held her close to try and offer what comfort he could. Her body was shaking and her salty tears were streaming every which way over her cheeks.

"I need him. I need him Seth. This can't be happening to me. No-" She whispered "-not again"

"Lee, - I-" Seth bit his bottom lip and cradled her head against his chest. "I'm so so sorry" He said, his voice cracking as his watery eyes began dropping tears of his own against her hair.

"What am I going to do?" She breathed, looking up at Seth, making his heart break with the despair sitting inside her brown eyes. "What am I going to do?" She asked shaking his arm, awaiting an answer.

Seth's own brown eyes swept over her knowing he couldn't give her an answer. It would be worthless and no use. She was losing something she loved – again. "I don't know. I really wish I could give you words of comfort Lee, but I can't. Your going to hurt and it's going to hurt for a long time. Maybe Renesmee wont want Jacob when she's older, maybe she won't-"

"Of course she will" Leah sobbed a defeated tone ringing in her voice. "She's his soul mate"

"I'm sorry sis. If I could take it back I would. I'm so sorry" Seth whispered, rubbing soothing circles with his warm palm on her back.

"Is he coming to see me to tell me himself or did he send you?"

Seth's head snapped away as he closed his eyes. Jacob hadn't sent him, his Alpha had been too wrapped up in holding the kid in his arms and looking down at it adoringly. Seth had left him sitting there, wrapped up in his own bliss. Even when he'd mentioned Leah's name, Jacob didn't even flinch. It was as if he was under some kind of spell.

"He didn't send you" She stated dryly, with no question in her voice, huffing out a breathe and closing her eyes tightly, almost mimicking Seth's posture and pose. "He's not coming back is he?" She asked looking up to Seth again who was still unable to meet her eyes.

"I don't know Leah" He answered simply.

"Come with me" She said suddenly out of the blue, pulling away form the embrace and finding strength to stand on her own feet.

"Come with you? Where?" He asked getting to his feet as he followed her quickly into the house.

"Any where but here. I don't know yet. Just come with me. We can make our own pack – hell, you can be Alpha if you want, let's just go" Leah yelled as she ran up the stairs to pack a backpack full of clothing.

Half out of breath from the run over and keeping up with her as she ran up the stairs, Seth leaned against the frame of her bedroom door as she paced it wildly, grabbing every inch of clothing she could fit in the small bag. "Are you crazy? We can't just leave, Jacob's our Alpha and we-"

"Fuck Jacob and his devil spawn. Come with me Seth" She begged "Please?"

"But what about mom? And the rest of the guys"

Letting out a wild shriek Leah launched her bedroom lamp at the wall and they both watched the glass base shatter into a million pieces. "I don't give a fuck about the rest of them. Come with me"

Sucking in a breath Seth shook his head "It's not that easy Leah. I can't just-"

Cutting him off Leah jerked open the bedroom window and threw the bag out on to the grass. "Of course it's easy. We'll go and never turn back. Once we get a place we can call mom and tell her were alright."

"I can't" He whined apologetically.

"Well then-" She replied glancing from him to the window. "I guess this is it then?"

"You don't have to go Leah. Stay – maybe we can-"

"Nothing can be done Seth" She whispered, hugging him tightly before backing away to stand next to the window. "I love you baby brother. I guess I'll see you again some time. Bye Seth"

"Wait" Seth called, shooting out his hand to grab her elbow, but it was too late. She was already too far through the window. Phasing as she jumped, Leah picked up the back pack with her large canines and sprinted into the woods, determined to put as much space she could between her and LaPush.
