Thank you so much for the reviews, they make it easier to write the story.
Jake POV
"Jake wake up." Someone shook me slightly.
I woke up and saw Carlisle and Edward "Are we moving her?"
"Yes," Carlisle answered "we're all ready for her at the house."
I rubbed my hand over my exhausted face and took a look at my sleeping angel "How is she today?"
Carlisle looked grim "No improvement."
'It'd be the death of me.' I thought.
Edward stepped close to me and wrapped an arm across my shoulders.
"Jake, we're going to run with Leah very quickly to the house, you phase and run with us."
"Jake!" Bella grabbed me in a hug, trying to soothe me.
I didn't say anything, what was there to say.
"Oh Jake honey she's going to be fine. That is one tough girl." Esme said wrapping me in a motherly embrace "I made you some food."
"Thanks Esme,but my stomach is too upset right now."
She nodded in understanding and hugged me again.
"She's all set up Jake, you can go see her." Edward told me from the top of the stairs.
I went up slowly with Esme and Bella trailing behind me.
I went over to my wife and kissed her forehead gently. "Is she getting better?" I asked Carlisle.
"I believe so, she's got a bit more color in her cheeks."
"Oh the poor dear." Esme said softly grabbing one of Leah's limp hands.
"When do you think she'll wake up?" I asked.
"Edward can you read her mind?" Carlisle asked him.
"I'm trying but there is just bits and pieces…that don't make much sense.
"Like what?" I asked literally on the tips of my toes.
He scrunched up his face "Daddy…not Kyle…why are you doing this…I love them."
I looked at him in shock "What's happening to her?"
"An internal conflict maybe, I don't know. I'll try to get more out of her Jake."
"Kyle and Luke will be here soon." I told the room of vampires.
Kyle POV
My night was restless, I worried about my mother so much.
"Kyle do you want some breakfast?" My uncle asked softly.
"No thanks." My stomach was so upset I wouldn't be able to keep it down.
Seth pulled a chair out and sat down "I'm worried about her to Kyle, but she'll pull through, just like she has before."
These people keep saying that she's pulled through before "Uncle Seth, what do you mean, that she's pulled through before?"
"I mean just that kid. You're mom has never given up."
I knew that there was something more behind my uncle's words, but decided to let it go for now.
"So um, they're moving my mom?" I asked nervously.
Seth looked at the clock "She should be at the Cullen's now, and we should go pick up your brother."
I nodded and followed Seth out to the car. What were we going to tell my brother…the truth.
"Hey Kyle, Hi Uncle Seth." Luke said climbing into the backseat.
"What's wrong ?" He asked nervously.
"Luke, Mom was in an accident." I said softly so he wouldn't freak out.
"What kind of an accident? Is she okay?"
"Luke will explain it to you when we get to Dad okay."
He didn't say anything but my brother was a sensitive kid, if I thought this was tearing me up inside it was doing double to him. We rode to the Cullen home in silence all of us stuck inside our own heads.
"Why are we at Grandma and Grandpa's house?" Luke asked.
"Grandpa Carlisle is taking care of mom here."
"Okay." He got out of the car and I wrapped my arm around his shoulders.
"Luke, Kyle." Esme called wrapping both of us in a huge hug.
"Where's my mom?" Luke asked his eyes looking around frantically.
"She's upstairs, but your dad wants to talk to you two."
We followed Esme to the living room where are father was sitting waiting for us.
"Luke, Kyle." Our Dad held out his arms and we both hugged him.
I sat down next to his side and he pulled Luke onto his lap.
"Dad, what aren't you telling me?" Luke asked twisting so he could see our father's face.
"Do you remember those old Quilette legends grandpa used to tell you about the wolves?," Finally Luke could know the truth, I felt so alone "Well they're real. Your Mom, Brother and I are all wolves."
Luke looked at him in shock "And I'll be one too…Brody and Avery?." He asked hopefully.
"I think so big man." Dad told him "Anyways we fight vampires, and last night your mom and uncle Embry were fighting with them and Mom got hurt."
"But she'll be okay." He didn't ask it he stated it with such confidence that I had to smile.
"And the Cullen's are our friends, they're good vampires." I told my little brother ruffling his hair.
He looked sad at that "I always thought they were superheroes or something darn."
"I love you two." Our Dad told us pulling me loser to him and kissing the tops of our heads.
"Dad can I go see Mom?" Luke asked looking at him with puppy dog yes.
"Yeah buddy go on up we'll be there in a minute." Dad told him.
I watched him walked away and sighed.
"How is she?" I asked my dad hoping for the best.
"Carlisle said she's doing better."
"Good."
Leah POV
"So Daddy Luke's doing well?" I asked hoping that at least he was doing okay.
"He's doing great going to medical school, well he's actually just started." He said with pride.
"Wow, my baby."
"Leah, you know they would never forget you."
"I know," I said softly "but I wish if I had to leave that they would just forget."
My Dad gave me a hug just like he had before he was gone "I wouldn't have wanted you to forget me."
I shook my head "No, I guess I wouldn't want to forget you either."
"The council is voting now, soon you'll know what path you'll take.
"Daddy did I do something wrong? Was I bad mother?"
He looked at me incredulous "No, No baby girl why would you think that?"
"I just don't understand why my case has to be reviewed."
He down on the white floor and motioned for me to sit next to him "Lee, every case is reviewed before an answer is given. Sometimes what's best for a lot of people is if someone leaves them."
"I don't understand." I told him trying to find the answer in his tranquil face.
He popped up "You don't have to Lee- Bee they've made their decision your going home."
I hopped up next to him and smiled "I miss you Dad, and I love you."
He kissed the top of my head and pulled me into a bear hug " I love you too, keep your nose out of trouble I don't want to see you back here for at least sixty years."
"I don't want to come back." I kissed his cheek.
"Alright bye baby girl, I'll miss you." He pushed me and I felt myself falling and finally I landed.
Opening my eyes to see my little Luke looking at me.
Luke POV
"Hey Mama." I say sitting next to my mom and grabbing her hand. "I really need you to wake up for me…and everybody. I really love you Mama, a lot." I looked around the room nervously "I just need you, we all need you." I looked at my mom and noticied her eyes were fluttering "Come on Mama!" I urged.
Her eyes opened completely and she looked at me "Luke you're okay."
"No Mom, you're okay." I wiped the tears off my face.
Carlisle came into the room just then and smiled at me and my mom. "Leah how are you feeling?"
"Um, my head hurts… a lot, and my abdomen."
"I'll give you some pain killers in a few minutes first Jake and Kyle really want to see you." He reached over and kissed my moms cheek and ruffled my hair.
"Mom!" Kyle screamed walking into the room and running over to the bed.
"Hey babe." She whispered weakly.
"Angel, how are you doing?" My Dad asked sitting on the chair with me and grabbing my mom's hand.
"I think I'll be okay." She said rubbing Kyle's arm soothingly "Where are Avery and Brody?"
"Their fine sweetie." Dad told her brushing the hair out of her face.
"Go get some food, and sleep you guys." she ordered us in that mothering tone.
"I don't want to leave you." I told her.
"Babe, I'll be fine. I promise."
"Listen to your mother guys, Esme's made a lot of food."
"Okay we'll be back later Mom." Kyle and I kissed her on the cheek leaving the room to give her and Dad time alone together.
Jake POV
"Oh Angel, I have been so worried about you." I told Leah kissing her head and cheeks.
"Come here." She ordered scooting over to make room for me.
I climbed in next to her and wrapped my arms around her "Your going to have to take an easy for a while Angel, two weeks in bed."
She shook her head "No way, not two weeks. I have to take Avery to her competition on Saturday."
I brushed my fingers over her face "You're not being stubborn about this Leah Black."
She sighed but nuzzled in close to me "Your lucky I love you more than anything, besides the kids of course."
"Oh angel I love you as much as the world too." I kissed her softly "Now nap." I told her sliding out of the bed as she whimpered.
"Jake, I need you." She told me giving me puppy dog eyes.
"Leah you need your rest so we can bring you home."
She nodded and laid back shutting her eyes.
I walked down the stairs and slid into the kitchen to see my boys stuffing their faces.
"Guys manners." I said pointing to my sons.
"They're fine Jake, we've had the wolves eat here before you know." Bella giggled.
"Bells why don't you go sit with her, I know you want to."
She kissed my cheek and bounded out of the room gracefully.
I noticed Seth coming out from inside the forest, and I knew that the pack would be here instantly.
"Jake, how's my big sister?"
"She's weak, and tired. She has an infection, but she'll be okay."
"Thank god." He sighed collapsing into a chair.
I grabbed a plate not realizing how hungry I had been.
"Jeez Dad, and we have bad manners." Luke said laughing along with Seth and Kyle.
"Shut it, why don't you go bother your grandmother or something."
"Oh these two boys never bother me." Esme smiled sitting next to Luke and smiling at him and Kyle.
"Hey Grandma, I know your secret…you're a vampire." Luke grinned at her as we all laughed.
"Yes, I am. Does that bother you?" She asked slightly nervous.
"No," He smiled "I'd love you if you were orange and had horns coming out of your head."
Esme looked like if she was capable of producing tears she'd be crying "You are such sweet boys, I love you." She said to Luke and Kyle.
"I'm a lucky man, aren't I Esme?" I asked her grinning.
"The luckiest Jake, I'm so happy for you." She said sincerely.
Leah POV
"Hey Bells." I smiled when I saw one of my best friends coming into my room.
"Leah," She sighed "you can't keep doing this to us."
I sighed "I know, I promise it wont happen again."
"Good because I'd hurt you." She said laughing.
"Ugh , I don't want to be in this position again."
"Oh I hear the pack approaching." Bella said laughing.
"Oh god, I don't want them in here. They are going to tell me I'm not allowed to patrol anymore."
"That's right." Embry told me coming into the room followed by everyone else "God Leah you scared me to Death."
"Come here." I held out my arms and he gave me a gentle hug. "I'm good."
"Promise Mom?" He asked sniffling.
"I promise."
"God Leah stop leaving us." Paul growled kissing my cheek as the others followed.
"I don't try to do it."
"Hey mom." Luke hoped up on the bed next to me. "We know you don't try, but it still worried us."
"The kids right Lee." Quil said pointing at my son.
"Well don't worry, I have to stay in bed a few days." I pouted.
"Leah," Jake scolded and then turned to the pack "Two weeks."
"Alright who's going to be on Leah duty." Seth smirked.
"What I don't need a babysitter." I pouted.
"Yeah you do." The whole pack laughed.
I shook my head "You boys are unbelievable."
"We'll send Kim, Rachel, and Emily over." Jared assured me.
I giggled "You guys are never letting me run patrol again."
"Absolutely not." Embry said clearly still upset "Leah, I think you should get some sleep." He patted my head.
"That's all I get, Come here." I kissed both of his cheeks and messed up his hair "Thank you for saving me."
"Anytime Lee." He smiled and turned to leave.
"Leah, I'm really glad you're okay." Sam said kissing my cheek before her left.
"Thanks, take good care of my girl." I called as he walked out the door to follow the others.
It was just the fours of us again and I cuddled next to Luke.
"Dad can stay with Mom?" He asked.
"Yeah me too Dad?" Kyle added looking at me and smiling.
"I don't mind."
"Boys why don't you go sleep in the other guest room, so you get a good nights sleep.
"I'm comfy." Luke mumbled from where he was curled into my side."
I kissed his head "Your welcome to stay. Kyle, Jake why don't you guys go get some shut eye."
"Sure Angel, you sure you're feeling okay?"
"I'm in some pain, and I think I've got a fever."
Suddenly Carlisle appeared of course he heard. He put a thermometer in my mouth. "Leah 103.0, right now I would say you have a fever, because you aren't healing fast."
"Yeah, I just need some sleep."
"What about the pain?" Carlisle asked nervously "On a scale of one to ten."
"I feel a sharp pain in my abdomen and a horrendous headache."
He looked at me and went to the dresser on the side of the room pulling out two syringes "I'm going to give you a sedative to sleep and a pain medicine." He plunged the needles into my IV.
I got exhausted extremely fast and felt my eye lids drooping "Goodnight boys." I mumbled incoherently slipping into a restful sleep.
