Bella PoV
I was having a lovely dream, I was in the arms of Paul and we were at the beach having a picnic with luscious fruits and delicious wine. He was holding me and saying Jokes I was laughing a laugh I hadn't heard properly in a while. I was in his lap and we were just watching the waves, and kissing then-BEEP BEEP BEEP
I groaned.
The sound of the alarm going off, and the throbbing in my head getting louder I opened my eyes and found myself tousled in the blankets alone. I could have sworn Paul was with me last night looking after my drunken ass, but anything could have gone down.
I propped myself up and walked into the kitchen, Leah already up and fresh with a hot cup of coffee in her hands, and Kim cooking something delicious in the pan the aroma wafting up my nostrils.
"Ahhh morning princess" Leah said, I could see her famous smirk on her face.
"Why are you so fresh" I Asked, making my way over and grabbing the biggest mug I could and helping myself to some coffee.
"See Bella while you were drinking from a bloody keg, I was just sipping my straight vodkas as a pro would, plus some strong coffee and a fucking good shower does the trick" She said, Kim chuckled. I groaned.
"I see Paul was your prince charming, he left early to patrol but he told me to give you this" Kim said, handing me a glass of water and two panadols. So he did stay over, it felt like my stomach had a butterflies in it. I grabbed the water and swallowed the panadols and could feel my cheeks getting red, I tried to hide the sensation but I wasn't quick enough.
"Is our Bella blushing?" Kim asked, scraping some pancakes onto a plate, pouring maple syrup and sliced bananas over them, then handing them over to me.
"No" I said, but that caused me to blush even more, I sat down next to Leah at the counter top and started eating my pancakes.
"You've got it bad huh?" Leah said,with slight concern in her face.
"Lee the imprint pull is just strong you know" But I was half lying, that was half of the reason why I was falling for him, but it was making sense to why fate connected us together, he was everything I wanted in a guy. Funny, caring , loving, protective (which I know Leah hated) and he had that fire in him that he would do anything for anyone and nothing would stop him, and that's what I wanted.
I glanced at Kim and could tell she knew I was lying, she knew because she had the same with Jared. Leah would too eventually but she was stubborn and she wouldn't admit it but she still needed to resolve things with Sam
After we ate, I got in the shower letting the hot water drop onto my skin, it was relaxing and just what I needed.
After I got out, I ran to the room grabbing the first thing I could find, a red halter neck and a denim blue mini skirt, paired with my black my converses, I brushed my hair and went back to the kitchen.
"Hey that's my top" Leah said, eyeing the top I was wearing.
"Yeah, but it looks hotter on me" I said giving her a wink, which earn't a eye roll.
"So what's on the agenda today Miss bride to be?" I asked, I knew today we dedicated on helping Kim to start planning the wedding, hungover or not we would do it.
"Today we are going to go some venues and try their menus, I've narrowed it down to two places and I knew you'd be hungover so I thought food tasting would be best" Kim continued "My two other bridesmaid will be their too so you'll get to meet them, well one you already know which is Emily and the other is my cousin Claire who is from Seattle" she said
"Oh Emily, I haven't seen in her in years, since when were you friends?" Leah asked, I could tell that bothered her. It's not that she didn't like Emily but they had a fight over Leah sneaking out of home while in senior year it was partly my fault,as I asked her to come to one of Mikes party, but her parents were strict at the time and didn't like the idea of her drinking so she sneaked asking Emily to cover for her, though that backfired with Emily telling her parents which caused her to be grounded until a week before we graduated and left, they hadn't spoken since.
" We kind of just clicked once I moved back.."She paused "She misses you Lee, I hope you guys can make up" She said hopefully. The way I knew my Lee it would take her another 50 years and we'd probably be dead.
"I'll do my best, I mean its been 4 years since our fight I'm sure we can move on" she said uncertain, I just hoped for the best.
Our first venue was at a place on the Reserve, call La Luna. Which literally meant 'the moon' it was owned by Embry's mom, my aunt Nina. She opened it a year ago, I missed the openeing but had recieved pictures from Kim and my dad. I was excited to finally see it and try the italian inspired food.
We arrived at La Luna which was right on the beach front, the building was rustic wooden panels made the building, with a triangle roof also made of wood. It had wide opened window's with fairylights around them, the door was two big wooden doors with the writing 'La Luna' on the front, it was beautiful, a perfect place for a wedding.
We walked in and two ladies were already there, I could recognize Emily straight away she hadn't changed much from what I remembered. Long straight black hair, skinny frame, sun-kissed skin and those deep brown clear water eyes that I knew all to well though it was her face that got me and I made sure to look away as soon as I saw it. On her face were three gastly bear marks, that were now into scars, I started to get a bad gut feeling in my stomach.
Next to her was a petite girl with long wavy blonde hair, she had the same green eyes as Kim but her skin was much paler, but with a hint of a tan, and she was tall probably 5,10.
"Leah, Bella its been a long time" Emily said, embracing us in a awkward hug, she looked nervous.
"Hey I'm Claire" the blonde said, she was polite and I had a feeling she had a crazy side to her. We greeted my Aunt Nina, but before we were taken to a round table with food I needed to have a word with Kim.
"Kim can I have one sec?"I asked grabbing her arm, and pulling her to face me.
"I couldn't help but notice the scar on Emily's face...it wasn't a bear was it?" I whispered I didn't want the others to hear who were with my aunt talking abut the food, her face frowned in slight confusion.
"Bella didn't they tell you everything, besides them being wolves?" Kim said, I was missing something. "Sam was the first to change and he imprinted on Emily, he lost his anger..."she paused "and that's why she has the scars...I thought they told you guys...though I guess that would have meant Leah would have seriously lost the plot.."she trailed off, "I'm sorry" she finished.
"Kim, we can't tell Leah...not right now anyway" I said, I couldn't think properly. Sam imprinted on Emily. the words were rushing in my head, if Leah knew this it would be world war all over again, she had yet to forgive her cousin and I know this would break her. She needed to know, but by Sam or Emily I couldn't be the one to bear this news to her.
"Can't tell me what?" I felt sick, I didn't realize she was behind us, I was going to say something but the words were stuck in my throat.
"Leah...We will tell you tonight"Kim said as calmly as she could, though we both knew Leah would want the answer now.
"No tell me now, what can't I know?" She demanded, in that moment Emily walked over and I knew what was going to happen the girl wasn't dumb she would have sensed what was happening.
"Leah...Sam imprinted on me" Emily said. Leah froze, then the next thing I knew she jumped at Emily grabbing her hair and pulling her to the ground.
"Leah NO"I shouted, grabbing my best friend and trying to get her off Emily, but she was clawing at me as well, Leah had always been stronger than me, and she was not letting go any time soon, Kim was also trying to help but it was no use.
"ENOUGH" Yelled my aunt, Leah let go and we both fell backwards, her falling on top of me, "Leah darling go and have a breather" Nina said as calmly as she could she wasn't one to get mad for long. Leah stood up and ran outside I tried to follow but Kim grabbed my arm.
"Let her think for abit" I nodded, and went over to check if Emily was okay, she was still on the ground obviously in shock.
"I didn't think that would happen Em...I'm sorry"I said trying to comfort her. She blinked and shook her head snapping out of whatever trance she was in.
"It's okay Bella, she's always had that angry side you know.."She whispered, I could only nod.
Eventually we got Emily up and decided it was best to reschedule another time.
"Thanks Nina, Very sorry about that" Kim said for the third time.
"Kim please, things happen I just hope Leah is okay" She said with a warm concerned smile. I hugged my aunt and promised I would visit soon.
"Do you think Leah went back to yours?" I asked Kim.
"I hope so" She replied. We said goodbye to Emily who assured us that she would be fine to get home and would explain to Sam what happened, Claire joined us as she would also be staying with Kim before the wedding, we hopped into the car and my phone started going off. It was an unknown number.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Bella its me Leah" She whispered, she sounded scared.
"Leah what's wrong where are you? What happened to your phone?" A lump formed in my throat.
"I'm so fucking sorry" she cried "I was so mad, I messaged Edward to get me from the border as I got his number from the party and he did, we got to his place and he pounced on me sucking my blood...he broke my phone-Bella I'm so scared, please help me, I'm so fucking scared"She whispered, her voice was so shaky I didn't know how to respond. I wanted my friend out there now.
"Leah it's okay, I'll get help don't you worry" I said urgently.
"Bella I don't know how much time I have...I have to go" She cried again, then the phone hung up, I looked down at the blank screen in shock.
"Bella What the fuck has happened?" Kim worriedly asked.
"Claire What I'm about to say is crazy, We will explain later but Leah needs us now" I said almost forgetting Claire didn't know the secret world.
"Okay" She gulped.
"Kim I need Sam's number now, the leech has Leah" I half yelled. with that she gave me her phone, driving as quickly as she could.I searched Sam number, with finding it I called him immediately and on the second ring he answered.
"Kim, I am not happy with Le-"I cut him off.
"Sam no fucking time, Leah needs us she leech has her in Forks, get the wolves to get her please" I pleaded.
He answered yes, and hung up quickly.
The only thing Kim and I could do was wait, so we arrived at Kim's and waited hoping our dear friend would come back to us alive.
RR, Will Leah survive?Who knows.
