As the days started to go by I began to worry. It'd been almost a month, and Lad still slept late, clung to Leon when she was awake, pulling deeper, and deeper in side herself. I had always admired my sister for her strength, no matter what she always pulled through and made it look like she hadn't even broken a sweat.
Now she was almost an empty shell of her former self. I think in away she blamed herself. Watching Leon I knew he saw it too. It had to be hard when all your girlfriend did was work, sleep, and occasionally eat when you made her.
She'd dropped about ten pounds, and she hadn't really had that to lose.
Lad
Starring at the mirror for the first time in weeks, I realized I'd somehow lost a very important part of myself. Splashing water on my face I grabbed Leon's towel exhaling his scent and taken a shaky breathe. This never ending need to have him with me at all times was leaning towards an unhealthy obsession. I knew something had to change, hell we all knew it. Leon had actually tried to shake some sense into my last night. I's been laying in the bed when he came up from watching a movie.
"That' enough Leaindra," he said walking over . Turning over slowly I looked dat him curiously.
"I'm sorry it happened, hell we all are, but we cant change the past," He said lifting me up, his hands encircling my arms. When I tried to pull away he gave me a slight shake.
"I refuse to watch you just wither away in front of me, If you feel live you can't go on, I will live for you damnit!"He said his head nestled into my neck as he hugged me close, and began to cry.
"Le, don't' cry," I said finally snapping out of my stupor enough to wrap my arms around his waist, and pull him towards me. Soon my kisses of comfort became something else all together, and we made love for the first time in a month. I feel asleep in his arm, pressed skin to skin.
Shaking my head I came back from my daydream. He was right, I'd basically become his shadow, and I knew for things to change I needed to get away for a while. Have some time to be on my own, away from the team, Leon, and my sister. She would be ok, she had V to look out for her.
"You're a mess ," i said to the face that looked back at me in the mirror as I turned to toss the towel in the hamper. Looking down at the baggy shirt I wore with my jeans that belonged to Leon I shook my head. When the hell had I lost sight of Leaindra Tribiani
I had to leave, and it needed to be soon before I lost all nerve. All I had were the people in this house, how could I leve them. My family had pretty much disowned me, but it wasn't like I ever felt like I belonged ther ein the first place.

I frowned as I watched my sister walk into the kitchen that afternoon. I knew she had something to say, just by the determined look on her face.
"Im leaving," She said mking everyones jaw drop, and Leon ump from his chair. I turned to V who put his arm around me pulling me close , letting me know he was there for me.
"You aren't leaving ," He said standing in front of her arms crossed .
"Le, I have to , I cant' go on depending on y'all liek this. " I saw LEtty nod in undersanding as she talked. She had slipped away after DOm went to prison she knew about needing space.
"Where do you eve n have to go?" he asked practically yelling.
"I dont' know I have some money, I justI need go."
"When?" he asked sighing.
"Tonight."
"DAmn! LAD!" he said walking away.
"LE!" She said running after him.
