Chapter 37
"Do you really think that this is a good idea? I mean should we really be doing this right now? Piper! I know you hear me!"
I rolled my eyes. This was like the twentieth time that Kim had asked me this question. I thought about just not responding anymore. Yeah because that seems to be working, my inner thoughts said.
I sighed slumping back in my chair. "Yes Kim! We are doing the right thing." I told her. Ask me this before I found out about the supernatural world around me I would have probably bit there head of telling them that it was the stupidest idea in the world to try and get Emily and Leah to talk things out. But now I was the one who was trying to make this reality. Trying to get the two cousins to reunite and Kim was helping me.
She had been less enthusiastic not wanting to get in the middle of things or really be involved at all but I had convinced her that it would be for the best. I could only hope that she was not backing out right now.
"Kim," I said looking her in the eyes. "We are doing the right thing okay! I mean it's about time that they mended their relationship and we are giving them a push in the right direction." I said before smiling. "They will thank us later in life. We are doing everyone a big favor."
"How are we doing everyone a big favor?"
"Simple. When Leah and Emily are friends again Emily will stop being so sad and become more happy. Then Sam will become happy and then the pack won't really have to deal with the whole star crossed lovers thing." I stated.
"There story will will always be there." Kim noted and I nodded. She was right about that.
"Yes but still Kim we are doing the right thing. And not a word to Leah." I said as Kim pulled up at her house.
"Oh yeah because I want her screaming at me. No thanks." She beeped the horn and then paused for a moment. "I don't know how we are going to do it. I mean how did you even manage to.." Kim stopped immediately as the back door to her car opened.
"Manage what?" Leah asked getting in the car. I turned around and grinned hugging her immediately. I had took off my seat belt so it was easy to hug her.
"I missed you so fucking much." I told her.
Kim grinned. "How did she manage to get you on a free day? You are always so fucking busy that we can never spend time with you." Kim laughed pulling out and driving to my house. I climbed in the back seat and I noticed Kim roll her eyes.
"Your lucky there are no cops over here," she said as I was now in the backseat next to Leah hugging her tightly. At first we were going to have it at Kim's house but her parents were home and that was not the place for it so I was going to blindfold her. It was not like she would willingly walk in my house. None of the guys would be there anyways because of patrol.
"Hey Kim," Leah called.
"Yeah?" Kim was taking the long way to my house I only hoped that Leah did not notice.
"Is Piper drunk or something?"
"Nah. She just missed you."
"Ah."
"Okay we are going to play a game." I spoke proudly grinning before taking a blindfold and putting it over Leah's eyes. She reached for it but I quickly secured it on her eyes before slapping her hands away.
"What the fuck Piper!"
"Okay, you have to guess what I am doing."
"This is so stupid," I heard Kim mumble before I shot her a glare. I moved my face to her ear and whispered, "It was the best I had now turn on the radio or something to distract her I guess."
I turned the rest of my attention back to Leah then. Kim did what I said and flicked through the radio.
"Alright guess what I am doing," I spoke waving my hands in front of her face.
"Piper, this is really stupid." Leah said.
I rolled my eyes. Yeah like I don't know that but it is the best thing I have got at the moment so deal with it.
"Same thing I said," Kim chimed in from the front seat still flipping through the radio.
"Oh you hush and drive."
I'm gunna pop some tags

This was my shit. I was absolutely in love with this song. I listened to the wrap singing along with it in my head. Hell yes. Thank god Kim found this.
I found myself singing along with Leah and Kim in no time.
I'm gunna pop some tags

By this time Kim was pulling up to my house. I took in a deep breath. This was it. I tried to act as normal as possible even though Kim was now getting out of the car. I led Leah out making sure she did not fall.
"This is absolutely fucking ridiculous Piper. Can you please take this damn thing off?!"
"Not yet."
"Why?"
"We have a surprise for you." I said not really thinking about it. My inner thoughts were thinking: Oh yeah this is going to be a fucking surprise alright. Watch Leah pop a gasket and kill you and maybe injure Kim.
I led Leah in the house and walked into the kitchen. Kim was standing off to the side. Emily had now looked up from the magazine that she was reading in the kitchen and looked shocked.
"Piper...Kim...who...who is that?" Emily asked slowly and felt Leah stiffen. Oh yes...Kim and I were truly in for it.
"Give me a boost Kim."
"What?!" She looked at me as if I was crazy. I was holding both of Leah's hands in my one tiny hand and she was struggling to get out of my grip which I had to say was not very strong compared to hers.
"I need a boost. She is tall."
Kim gave me a 'what the fuck' look before bending down and I jumped on her back. "Piper..." she groaned and I grinned kissing her cheek.
"You love me." I spoke at the same time as I pulled off Leah's blindfold and yelled a big "Surprise."
… …. … … … … … …Crickets… … … … … …
Well she honestly did look completely shocked. I guess we got the whole surprise part right.
I watched as Leah's eyes bored into Emily's. By this time I was back on my feet and off of Kim's back. She looked nervous I just rolled my eyes.
In the end this is all going to be worth is; I had to keep reminding myself that.
"What the fuck is going on?!" Leah yelled at me and I noticed Emily flinch.
"Oh come on Leah," I used a light tone trying to lighten the mood. The tension was so thick that you could cut it with a knife. "It is about time that you too talked."
"I am leaving." I grabbed her arm as she started walking and pushed her into the kitchen. "Sit down Leah."
"What the hell is wrong with you Piper?" She snapped angrily and I flinched.
"Believe it or not...nothing." I tried to lighten the mood. "Oh come on Leah you too need to talk. Stop being stubborn and talk to her."
"I hate her."
Damn. Emily looked as if she was on the brink of tears.
"You don't hate her you are just upset with her and her actions. Leah she is still your cousin at the end of the fucking day!"
"This is fucking ridiculous."
To my absolute surprise Kim blocked her this time. The fuck? Did not expect that but I was sure as hell grateful for it. "Leah sit down." There was something in her eyes and Leah complied. Damn.
Leah looked at me a bit shocked but sat. About time. I guess I was going to have to take full control or at least get the conversation started. I was determined to make them get along by the end of the day.
"Alright."
I looked at Emily and she was just looking at the wall. She took in a deep breath and looked at Leah. "Hi Leah," she spoke gently. Of course Leah did not repsond, not like I really expected her too.
"How are you?" She tried. "You look great and you are so tall now. Well you were always tall." She was still trying. "How is the college life? Do you enjoy it?" Come on Leah...do something. "I miss you."
That got her attention. But not in a good way.
"You miss me? Who's fault is that Emily?" Leah spat obviously angry.
"It did not have to be this way." She was still speaking calmly.
"Your right. If you were able to keep your hands to yourself then it would not be this way."
"Alright that's a bit uncalled for Leah." I spoke up and she glared at me. "You wanted us to talk we are talking, stay out of it." I put up my hands in defense.
I would not speak unless it became necessary for me to say something.
"I am so sorry."
"Your sorry? Do you know what is was fucking like? It was like hell. If it were anyone else I would have been able to take it. Would I have been pissed, of course but my own cousin! That's fucked up Emily!"
"Leah I know you were hurt but you just don't understand."
"YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING!" Leah yelled at the top of her lungs.
Oh please do not let this turn into a screaming match, my inner thoughts screamed. I really do not want to feel a headache coming on today.
"I love him."
"You love him?"
"You didn't even know him. You were supposed to my best friend. My maid of honor. The god mother of my children and you turned on me."
"I didn't turn on you." I noticed tears running down Emily's cheeks. I felt bad. I didn't think she would cry over this.
"YES YOU DID! THE MINUTE YOU AND SAM GOT TOGETHER YOU WERE DEAD TO ME!"
"Don't say that Leah."
"Why? It's the truth!"
"Leah that is enough!"
"STAY OUT OF THIS PIPER!"
"NO! I WILL NOT STAY OUT OF THIS I WON'T!" Ha! I could yell too not like it really proved anything. Emily was only crying harder with her head in her hands and Leah was looking pissed off.
"Leah I get that you are hurt and angry but it is time to get over it. I mean your with what's his face ugh...Pete...Peter something like that now anyways so who cares about Emily and Sam's relationship! And Emily you need to apologize and get a grip on yourself." I did not mean to sound harsh, well yes I did but seriously. Sitting there and crying was not helping the situation. I mean really. Say something dammit. I am not going to defend you forever.
"Your dating?" Emily asked.
Leah nodded. "What's it too you?"
"Leah!" I snapped.
"Yes. I am in a relationship."
"How long?"
"Awhile."
"Do you love him?"
"We are not friends. Do not ask me any personal questions." I rolled my eyes. I would rather give slight snarky comments than just scream the whole time. It was a good question though. I would like to know if she loved her boyfriend or not. We had not gotten much of a chance to talk.
"I miss you Leah." Emily sighed. "I know that a lot of stuff happened and I am sorry. I never wanted to hurt you but Sam and I we just...complete each other. He still loves you Leah. He will always love you but..."
Leah sighed. "He just loves you more. You and him just have this connection that no one can touch. Stronger than this earth."
"Yes."
I watched Leah closely. She looked like she was about to break into a thousand pieces. Oh shit.
"We are really, really in for it Kim." I murmured. This was not good. I mean if she started crying I was so sure that Kim and I were both dead.
She snorted. "No. No Piper you are in for it. This was your stupid idea."
"You helped."
"Not like you really gave me much of a choice." She said slightly glaring at me and I gave her my best smile. "I knew this was a bad idea."
"Oh would you relax. They will be thanking us for this." I put my hand over my heart. "We will go down in history for this."
"In your dreams."
"There too."
"Are you not paying attention! We are toast when we leave here!?"
"I don't really like toast much..." I said more to myself to have Kim hit the back of my head.
"And people think that you are just sweat and innocent."
"Shut up Piper."
I had been so focused on talking to Kim by that when I looked back at Emily and Leah they were both crying and...hugging.
"You owe me." I said looking at Kim.
"For what?"
"I told you we were going down in history. Look at those two. All it took was a talk."
Before she could respond the back door bust open and all of the wolves were here. Yes all of them. They each crowded in looking confused and Sam looked pained and confused and gave me a 'I want the full story look' and also the 'What the fuck did you do'.
"Why do you assume I did something?" I asked him.
"Your always doing something." Kim commented. Great. Couldn't she be shy and quite right now.
Without even thinking I put my hand in cookie dough that was close to me and threw it at her. Fuck. Maybe not the best idea considering she doubled that and rubbed it all over my shirt while saying, "Oh I am sorry. Did I get this all over your shirt?"
I heard laughs. Oh so they think that this is funny. I gave her a fake smile and watched her wipe cookie dough off her face. I took the bowl and rubbed it all over her shirt while speaking, "It's okay. I got it from your closet."
She glared at me, oh well it was the truth.
"What the fuck is going on?" I did not cringe at the voice. Jacob. I just simply said. "Well Mr. Black today I went down in history as the most amazing person in the world with the help of my side kick." I gestured to Kim before pointing to Emily and Leah who were not paying any attention to us. Ah.
Thank you for all of the reviews everyone! So more Jacob in the next chapter yeah? Thank you for reading!
