Title: Who's a girl to choose?

Rating: M

Disclaimer: Do I look like Stephanie Meyers? (Looks around) OH! Right, you can't see me. No I am not Stephanie Meyers, so no I do not own Twilight or the characters.

Pairing: Leah/Jake and Leah/Edward and Jake/Angela (But not until way later.)

Summary: I went from being unwanted to being wanted by two different guys. To make matters worse, one is my alpha and bestfriend and the other is my mortal enemy, also my imprint. I love them both but I can't stomach the thought of hurting either of them. What's a girl to do? Who's a girl to choose?

AN: Ok so Krystle and I are working on a multi-chaptered story. She is helping me write it, and giving me ideas and such. She is such a big help when it comes to certain things. This will be a multi-chaptered story. It will have a lot of twists, so be prepared for the ride.

AN2: There is no Bella or Nessie. Bella never came to Forks; therefore she never married Edward and had Renesmee. Also at the start of this Leah and Jake are already wolves. Also Jacob and Leah are dating at the start of the story. Edward cannot read Leah's mind; it has something to do with the fact that she imprints on him. Also Jake is 17 and Leah 19.

AN3: Krystle writes any lemon in this story, I just write the other stuff. Please R&R like always.

Edward's POV:

My tiny silver Volvo CCR sped along the nearly empty streets of Forks. I was supposed to be meeting Seth for lunch well he would be the only one eating. It had been a week since I first saw his sister at the park, and everyday I grew more frustrated because I could not understand why she was on my mind so much. She was all I ever thought about. Her scent, which was not as bad as it should be, was endearing to me. Her face was all I ever saw when I closed my eyes. Her brown eyes haunted me and followed me wherever I went. There was no escaping it. I was oddly drawn to the female wolf with a bad attitude.

That was one reason I had talked Seth into having lunch with me. I was going to learn more about his sister. I wouldn't be outrageously direct, I would try to be discreet, ask questions about his family, about Sam, Jacob, and the rest of the pack. Not that I really cared about any of the others. My mind was solely stuck on Leah Clearwater.

Jasper had been getting annoyed with me lately he could feel my utter frustration about how I was feeling. He felt my irritation and in turn that made him edgy and moody as well. He had even caused Alice look she wanted to cry (which is impossible for vampires to do.) when he was feeling my irritation and she wouldn't stop talking about shopping. It really just pushed him over the edge. He had felt horrible afterwards, and so he and Alice had agreed to go hunting for a few days. That wasn't before Alice had demanded (She could be scary when she wanted.) that I get over whatever was bothering me. By the end of her rant, I felt so guilty that I let her have my credit card for a day of shopping. She had used it until it was completely over its limit and she did this within an hour. How someone so little could buy so much stuff was beyond me.

I parked my car on the side of the road and stepped out. It was only drizzling a little so more people where walking the streets. I saw Lauren and Jessica walking in my direction and I hurried into the diner before they had the chance to notice me. They had been bolder towards me lately, flirting, if you can call throwing yourself at someone flirting I mean. They constantly asked me out and I was beginning to get to the point where I wouldn't be polite anymore. So bearing that in mind, I avoided them whenever I was able.

Seth Clearwater smiled and waved at me from his table. Usually I was the one early, but I suppose I had just lost track of time because my mind was constantly on Leah. I didn't understand it. I didn't want to think about her, she was a dog, a mutt and yet there was so much more to her than meets the eye. I hadn't even ever spoken to her and here I was dying to know every detail about the one girl in the world who my powers of being able to read ones minded didn't work on.

Seth was a nice kid, and I emphasize the word kid. He was only 15 years old, only a decade and a half. He had innocence to him that I envied. I wished I could go back to before I was turned when I was young, innocent, and naïve. Back to where the world was just black and white with no shades of grey. When you knew what was right and what was wrong and there were no loopholes to that theory. Maybe that was the reason I hung out with the youngest Clearwater, because he embodied all the innocence of this world.

I walked quickly over to where he was seated and sat across from him. He was grinning happily at me and I had no idea as to what had the young boy in such good spirits. He was usually happy, but he was just more so today. I quickly scanned his mind and realized why. My little friend has his first ever-real crush on a girl. He hadn't imprinted on her, but I thought that he was too young to imprint anyways. Let him enjoy just being young and crushing on a girl before he became love's man bitch.

I often thought that when a wolf imprinted on someone that it was kind of pathetic. I mean really, would you honestly want to have your world revolve around one person. What if the person you imprinted on didn't love you back? In most cases that didn't happen, usually the person who was imprinted on liked the attention thrown upon them. But what if the one who was imprinted upon ended up being married? Would it really be fair to their spouse? I thought not.

It made me think of Leah. I knew all about what had happened between she and Sam Uley. Sam had imprinted on her cousin, and instead of telling her, he went behind her back. I thought he was a low filthy man for doing that. If you could even call him a man. He should have told her the truth and not kept it hidden. It was only fair to her. It had become worse for her when she became a wolf; she had to hear Sam's thoughts. That had to be torture on her. Feeling his love for her cousin. I don't think I could ever handle something like that. She was a strong person, and she had my respect.

"Hey Edward." Seth said to me in greeting. "Thanks for getting me out of the house, Leah and Jake had plans tonight so I had nothing better to do. I didn't want to stick around the house with my mom and dad."

He is reading over his menu, and I know he was worried about the cost, since I had offered to pay for lunch. "Seth, get whatever you want, money is no problem for me. I don't eat so therefore I do not mind spending my money on you, I have no better use for it."

Except for maybe buying CD's but they were not very expensive. Plus, I owned almost every CD known to man. What could I say, I liked music, it spoke to me in a way that nothing else did. I wondered if Leah Clearwater liked music? What was her taste in music? Was it rap? I scrunched my nose in distaste. I did not really like rap music. That was more Emmet's thing, not mine. Did she like country music? For some reason I could not picture feisty Leah Clearwater listening to country music. Nor could I picture as listening to pop music, like Britney Spears. For some reason I thought she would probably like groups such as Evanescence, Linkin Park, Creed, Paramore, Placebo, The All-American Rejects, Muse, maybe even Nightwish.

I snapped out of my thoughts when Seth spoke again. "Hey Edward, can I ask you something?" He looked nervous. I noticed that the waitress had already come to take his order, she knew I never ordered anything. I tried to scan his mind, but he was blocking it by saying math problems in his head. This was serious then. Seth never tried to hide his thoughts from me. He must be really afraid.

"Of course Seth, ask away. I will help you out the best way I can." He smiled and took a breath. He looked calmer, but his heart was racing. If he didn't calm down I feared he might give himself a heart attack. I tried to reassure him. "Seth, whatever it is, I will not tell anybody. You can trust me, you know that."

Seth nodded, and I did not expect to hear what I did come out of his mouth. "How old do you think one should be before they have sex?"

If I had been human I would have turned beat red and probably choked to death. As it was, I was suffering from a coughing fit. I had not seen that coming. Out of all the things I thought he would ask about, sex was not one of them. What should I tell the boy? In my time we had different beliefs than this time and age. Shouldn't he be talking about this with his parents? I could tell that he had been really nervous to ask me, maybe he just wasn't ready to talk to anyone else. Plus I was over 100 so maybe he thought I had expertise in this area. He should really talking to Emmet or Jasper about this or someone from his pack.

"Well Seth," I cleared my throat. I was feeling very uncomfortable about this. "I suppose it depends on the two people who are planning to have," I took a breath before saying the dreaded word. "Sex. Personally I think that two people should be committed to each other. I think that," I cringed as I said it again. "Sex should be be more than just something casual. If you have no feelings for your partner I think it's meaningless."

"Well how do you know if you are ready?" He asked me as I shifted in my seat. "I mean if you like a girl and she likes you back should you go all the way? The boys at school say you should. They say that if you wait you are a pussy. And Quil and Embry told me the same thing."

I rubbed my temples; I could feel a headache coming on. Vampires never got headaches, then most vampires probably didn't have to about sex with a 15 year old boy who was also a shape-shifting wolf. "Seth, maybe you should talk to your parents about this? Or Leah? I am sure that Jacob or Sam would be happy to explain things to you. And they can relate to you better than I can."

His face crumpled instantly. "But I can't! They will laugh at me! Plus, I can't talk to Leah about this, she will just say something to mom and dad, and then they will have the sex talk with me. I tried talking to Jake about it, but he is so wrapped up in Leah, that I was afraid I would learn about their sex lives. That's another reason I wanted to talk to you. I don't want to be the only virgin wolf on La Push! I know Jacob and Leah have either already had sex, or they are planning to very soon. " I don't know why my heart clenched at the thought of Leah with Black. Maybe because I didn't think he deserved her. I didn't like the fact that he would be her first. I knew she was a virgin because I could smell it. Most virgins smelled different than people who have had sex. "Please Edward, I don't have anyone else to talk to!" He begged me.

I sighed; I would just have to bear this talk no matter how much I wished I didn't have to. Seth was my friend, and obviously he was very distressed. "Seth, listen to me. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin. Don't let others make you feel that you should rush into something that you are not ready for. Plenty of guys are virgins in this day and age, they just pretend that they have lost there virginities to look cool. Don't be ashamed about it. Be proud, it's a part of who you are."

Seth gave me a look and his eyes widened. "You?" He asked me and I had to hide an amused chuckle at his shocked expression. "But-but you're so cool!"

I raised my eyebrow at him. "Seth, are you under the impression that virgin's are uncool?" I tried to use teenage speak. I doubt that he would understand a word I said if I used my big vocabulary.

Seth immediately blushed and stuttered. "I-I didn't mean it like that. It- it's just that you're so... So…" he paused while he searched for the right word. "I never thought you of all people, I mean you're over a hundred years old! You never, not even once?" He asked.

I was not ashamed of being what I was. I had gotten used to jokes from Emmet and Jasper; they didn't bother me anymore. I straightened in my seat and raised my chin, looking right at him. "No Seth, I have never been intimate with anyone. The time I am from was very different than yours. We respected women too much to just casually sleep around. Usually one did not have sex until they were married, or if you were brave enough, engaged. You only get one first time Seth; don't you think that you owe it to the girl and to yourself to wait until you are sure that it is what you want? You wouldn't want to look back in twenty years and realize that you lost it to someone whose name you barely remember do you?'"

Seth's eyes darted around the diner, and he leaned his elbows on the table, his voice was practically a whisper. It was a good thing that I had enhanced hearing. "So, it doesn't make me gay if I want to wait?"

I let out a smile to him. "Of course not. In fact I assure you that when you are ready, that the girl you choose to be with will appreciate the fact that you waited. It will make her respect you more."

Finally Seth's food arrived and dug in eating faster than I thought was possible. But again wolves did have healthy appetites. I suppose they needed the calories to replace the energies they constantly burned off.

A dark thought crossed my mind. I wonder how Leah and Jacob were burning off there calories? No matter how hard I tried I couldn't get the thought out of my head. I couldn't see why she would want to have sexual relations with him. A wolve's body was unnaturally warm, so wouldn't she rather have a cold body next to hers? I couldn't help it as I imaged a cold marble hand traveling over her russet colored skin. I couldn't help but hear her moans in my mind…Edward oh Edward… I could hear her voice in my head, chanting my name.

I didn't even realize that I had clenched my hands into fists and was growling until Seth said something to get my attention. "Dude are you ok?" He asked with genuine concern. "You kinda zoned out on me and then you starting growling. Is everything ok?"

I tried to hide my anger and frustration. I plastered a fake smile on my face, and he seemed to buy it. "I'm fine Seth, I just haven't," I racked my brain for an excuse. "I haven't hunted in a while, and I think that I probably should go tonight."

Seth took a drink of his 3rd cup of Mountain Dew. "Oh, yeah. But you'll be back in time right?"

I had no idea what he was talking about. "In time for what?"

His face broke out in a bright grin. It was brighter than sunlight; I was surprised it didn't make my skin sparkle it was that damn bright. "My birthday remember? I'll be sixteen. I told you like a month ago and you agreed to come to Port Angeles with us."

I felt apprehensive with how he said we. We who? The only friend's I knew he had besides my family where mostly other wolves or kids from the La Push reservation. None of who really warmed up to my family. "Seth, refresh my memory if you will. Who is exactly going again?"

Seth laughed at me. "Man I think your age is finally catching up to you and effecting your memory. Mom said that Leah and I could spend my birthday in Port Angeles and were allowed to invite one person each. So Leah invited Jacob," He rolled his eyes playfully. "Of course, like she would invite anyone else. And me, well I invited you."

Leah. Leah. Leah. My mind chanted. I would get to spend the day with the elder Clearwater. Then I remembered Jacob Black would be there with her. I frowned as I looked at Seth. "Seth wouldn't you rather invite one of your friends from La Push? Someone that your sister and Jacob would get along with?"

"Nope." He said simply, finishing off the rest of his food. Wow that kid could really eat. It was impressive. I bet that if Emmet ate human food that Seth could out eat him. "You're my bestfriend, and I don't really want anyone else from La Push to come. Don't worry about Leah and Jake, they have to be nice because it is my birthday after all. You're still going to come right?"

I sighed to myself. This kid had a way of making me feel guilty. "Of course, I wouldn't miss it." And of course Leah would be there. So would her pet, I sneered to myself. But maybe I could learn more about the girl who was making my existence unbearable and she didn't even know it.
