Ch.10 Stolen Kiss
We walked in the forest for a few hours. It would've been a beautiful and relaxing walk if it wasn't for: A) Vampires are hunting us down and B) the spawn wouldn't stop complaining.
"I'm tired!" She cried out. I growled. I couldn't take it anymore.
"Oh boo-freaking-hoo! Aren't you an amazing spawn? You're half-vampire we have only walked 18 miles you shouldn't be tired!" I snapped. Jacob growled at me for being mean.
"Shut up Leah is not her fault you have the legs of a male bodybuilder." Jacob retorted. I was about to snap when Terry intervened.
"We're all under stress so let's keep walking and try to be quiet."
"How can-." Jacob started but Terry cut him off.
"I said be quiet! I swear to God I'll rip the head of whoever talks first within the next two hours." We walked in silence because no matter who sweet Terry looks he can actually be quite frightening. Two hours passed by and no one said anything. Night was falling so we camped out in the clearing. It wouldn't be safe to walk in the dark since they have that advantage over us, and Terry was the only who had a night vision as good as them. We set everything down and made a small fire. We sat in pairs. You guessed them: Me and Terry, the Spawn and Jacob. Sitting as far apart from each other as we could. We grabbed the food from our backpacks, I grabbed just an energy bar because I wasn't that hungry. I finished quickly and started talking to Terry.
"So tell me vamp boy how come you're stronger than you look?" I asked.
"I don't know, actually I wasn't that athletic when I was a kid." Said Terry.
"Hm, dammit you always have it well. If you were ugly, you have a chance to be beautiful, if you were weak, you have a chance to be strong." I said a bit more sharply than I intended. He hugged me tightly.
"It has its drawbacks, you know. For once we have no soul. We have to feed on blood and we can't eat real food. I miss having pizza for dinner." Said Terry. I rolled my eyes. Guys are always thinking about food. He laughed because he heard my thoughts. He smiled and had a teasing look on his eyes.
"But you know what the worst is?"
"What?"
"Psychedelic werewolves try to hunt us down." He told me. I laughed and punched his arm hard. It hurt a bit. He chuckled again.
"But if it wasn't for that I wouldn't have met my cute but crazy werewolf girlfriend." I kissed him softly on the lips. We had the same reaction of before, fire and ice coming together at last. But it felt odd, the kissing was great but there was something off. I heard Jacob talking with Nessie. Terry glanced their way. What's wrong with them? I asked Terry mentally.
Renesmee is hungry.
Didn't she have a sandwich?
Yeah, but she's a vampire remember. I forgot for a moment the blood-drinking needs of Renesmee but more importantly I forgot about Terry's. His eyes were so dark they were almost black. I hated myself for doing this but I had no other choice.
Terry, why don't you go and feed with Renesmee?
Are you sure? His asked. He sounded careful and a bit afraid.
Yes, just try to convince them. And I'll make sure the great alpha doesn't get in trouble. He grinned at me and kissed my forehead.
"Thanks." He whispered out loud. He ran over to where Jake and Nessie where sitting. He told the Jake the plan but Jake simply shook his head. After some good arguing from Terry. Jake couldn't say no to his dear imprint and he told me that they better be back in half an hour. They left quickly into the forest. Jacob and I sat without looking at each other for a long time.
"Beautiful night, today isn't it?" He said as he was looking up at the star-filled sky.
"No if you and the spawn start making out." I said.
"Leah, can we not argue right now?" he begged.
"Then stop making out with a freaking mutant!" I said acidly. He stood up.
"You should be talking! Making out with a bloodsucker!" I stood up and even thought he stood almost a foot taller than he backed away a few feet.
"Hello?! You've been making out with one too!"
"So? She's only half a vampire."
"That's even worse! That's a crime of nature if you ask me. That's why Bella Swan shouldn't have kids." He pushed against a tree but he was careful not to break in half.
"Leah Clearwater, stop it! What the hell is your problem with Nessie?" That question somewhat rings a bell.
"What's your problem with Terry?"
"I asked you first, Leah." He growled.
"I already told you. She's just spoiled! So spoiled. She has a perfect the life; ever since I finished high school my life has been crappy to no end! I'll never have a happy ending because she took away--." I stopped before I could finish that sentence. But Jacob wasn't that stupid. His expression softened.
"Leah, are you jealous of Nessie?" Jake asked softly. My body started to tremble and shiver.
"No of course not! Who would be jealous of that thing? Now tell me are you jealous of Terry?"
"No why should I?" He asked outraged.
"Well you seem like you are."
"Well I'm not." We looked at each other for a long time; he was still leaning across the tree trunk. I wanted to kiss him so bad. The crushing feeling of our lips together was a bit tempting.
"What is wrong with us?" I asked out loud.
"I don't know, Lee."
"Why did you have to kiss me, Jake?"
"I thought I was strong enough to break the imprint."
"Obviously not."
"Oh, you haven't made a fucking effort, either!" He said.
"I was happy until you came along and confused me!" I yelled. I wanted to bit my tongue again.
"I confused you?" He asked with a tone that indicated that was a good thing.
"Yes."
"Leah I-."
"You can't love two girls at the same time."
"Are you sure?" I glared at him.
"Yes I'm sure."
"But you love two guys at the same time."
"No I don't." I said through gritted teeth. I walked away trying to control my anger when Jacob spun me around and kissed me. His kiss was rough and sweet at the same time. I kissed him back and ignored my conscience because at the moment he felt good. But he smelled like her. The sweet smell reminded me of Renesmee and Terry. I pushed him away from me. I was mad. Mad at him for being so handsome and liking me. Mad at myself for kissing. But I was mad because he wasn't mine even thought it felt like it. I took my anger out and slapped him.
"Leah what the hell? I thought you liked it." He said a bit hurt and angry.
"Don't kiss me. Don't touch me. And don't talk to me until I tell you because if you do I might just phase and tear you to shreds."
"Leah, wait--" He started. I just turned around and stared at him until he got quiet. I walked away. I felt the hot tears burning in my eyes. I wouldn't be able to stop thinking about it. I closed my eyes trying really hard to fall asleep and forget everything.
I woke up and saw Terry packing everyone bags since everyone else was asleep. I woke up a bit sore but I stood up and stretched a little. I picked up my bag and Terry gave me a good morning kiss on the cheek. I still felt a bit guilty about the kiss. I did my best not to think about it. The atmosphere was tense but Terry didn't push it. We walked for many miles. Terry kept glancing at Jacob. He still didn't say anything. Night finally came around and we all settled in. I sat next to Terry and put my head on his shoulder. His head snapped up as if he just remembered something
"Wood. We forgot wood to make the fire."
"Oh that's fine we have the moonlight."
"Uh but still I need to collect wood."
"But you can't go alone." I said a bit worried.
"I'll take Jacob with me." I didn't like that one bit. He seemed too distracted to hear my thoughts. He talked to Jacob and dragged him off to get wood. Two things bothered me: one Jacob and Terry are going into the woods alone. That's not good. And I had to stay with the spawn that was even worse! I took a nap for half an hour when I heard something in the bush. At first I thought it was Terry and Jake coming back. It smelled awfully like bloodsucker, even too strong just to be Terry's scent. I realized a bit too late something was wrong. Luigi, Valentino, and Gino stepped into the clearing. The Infantozzi Brothers found of us.
"Hello, ladies." Said Luigi with a tone that sent Goosebumps down my spine. I was afraid because I didn't know if the both of them were alive or not. Terry! Jake! I thought with all the mental power I could muster. Right now I had only one duty and that was to protect Renesmee. For my Jacob.
