I DO NOT OWN THE TWILIGHT SAGA.

A/N: I imagine Naomi Scott as Leona


Alex's P.O.V.

"What's wrong?" Leona asks as she climbs into the car. She throws her gym bag into the back seat and redoes her ponytail. Leona is, even at the age of thirteen, very beautiful with her black hair and dark brown eyes. She is an exact replica of our mother. I look over at her. She knows me well enough to sense when I'm pissed off.

"I was at work when you called me and so I asked Jared if he could get you. He was going to get you, but then a wolf howled and then, as if the howl was a signal or something, all of the boys get up and start walking out of the diner; and then Jared is telling me that I have to leave work to get you. That's why I'm mad!" I tell her.

"Jeez Louise, Alex; just because you're mad at our idiot brothers doesn't mean you have to take it out on me." I take a deep breath and let it out, it helps to calm me down.

"Look, I'm sorry. I'm just tired of them blowing us off for their little cult. Ever since they joined Sam and his gang they never have any time to spend with us." I pull out of the parking lot and start the drive home. Today is a nice day considering it's La Push. The sun is out and it's no longer raining. I even have the windows open because it's actually pretty warm out; hard to believe, I know. It's quiet for a minute as I drive through town to our house. We've lived in the same house all our lives. It's on edge of the town, just outside of Forks and in the middle of nowhere. As I'm driving, I can see Leona struggling with something. I wait a couple of minutes before saying anything as to see if she'll open up to me.

"Katie has been hanging out with Embry Call recently," she finally says. Her voice is small, like she feels hurt. "They're not dating or anything; he's Jared's age and she's fourteen, so it'd be weird not to mention creepy if they were. But with the amount of time they've been spending with each other, you'd think that they were. Dating, I mean. I asked her about it and she said that he's her best friend. I mean, I thought that I was her best friend."

My grip on the steering wheel tightens as does my throat. It's hurts me so much that Sam can accept Kathleen Doldan into their little gang, but not Leona and I. Like what the fuck happened to family comes first? As far as I know, Katie isn't related to anybody in their group, so why are they letting her hang around? Sometime I seriously hate them. I wipe away the tears that are forming in the corners on my eyes. When I was little, I always thought that my relationship with my brothers would be like those in the movies. You know, they would protect me at all costs, beat up the boys that made me cry, and we would be best friends. Boy was I ever delusional. Nothing is like the movies because they come from someone's imagination. You know what? It's kind of fucked up that the movies get your hopes up that your family will be like the one they made up; then a few days after you watch it you punch your brother in the face because he threatened to tell your parents that you broke the very expensive urn that held the ashes of your grandfather. True story.

I just need a night out with Julie, Cam and Tami. Maybe we can all go out and see that new Harry Potter movie, then go out for dinner at McDonald's. Yeah, that sounds nice.

I had stopped at one of the very few stop lights we have here in La Push, and as soon as it turns green I start to go again. And that's when it happens. The thing that changes my entire life. Isn't it amazing how one minute your life can be one thing, and a second later it can be something totally different? How your entire life can change in the span of seconds? Well, that's what happened to me.

As I step on the gas pedal I see, out of the corner of my eye, headlights heading my way. I figure that they're gonna stop as I have the right of way, but they don't. They keep on going. And I've only been driving for a couple of weeks so I panic when this happens, and I don't react fast enough. The other driver plows into our car, sending Leona and I skidding across the road and through the guard rail, and into the woods. And you know how, in the movies and books, as a person is dying, their whole life flashes before them? Well that's not what it's like for me. All I can think about, and you can berate me for this on the other side, is the fact that I'm going to die a virgin. I mean nobody wants to die a virgin, right? That's just messed up. And you can stop judging me because I also think about my family. How I'm never going to get to tell my parents that I love them. That I'm not going to be able to grow up, graduate high school, go to college, get a good job, get married and have kids and grow old with the guy I love.

I'm sure that the car is only moving for ten seconds at most, but to me, and I'm sure Leona feels the same way, it feels like we are moving for forever. But finally, finally, we come to a complete standstill.

Everything hurts, especially my arms and my one leg. And it feels like I can't breathe. I slowly turn my head, which takes every ounce of my strength because it feels like my entire body is being weighted down, and see that Leona is unconscious. Little black dots are floating in my vision and I can slowly feel myself slipping away. The last thing I hear is a wolf howling, then I black out.
