Enjoy! And once again, I don't own this. I really wish I had because then Leah and Jacob would be together forever

After the Battle

I stood outside the Black's house with the rest of the gang, waiting impatiently to hear from the Doctor Leech if Jake was okay. I wouldn't forgive myself. I shouldn't have gone after that newborn bloodsucker. Jake wouldn't be screaming at the top of his lungs in pain now if I hadn't.

That Bella girl had gone in to talk to him. And I had protested about him getting in my way; only to get Paul yelling at me to shut it. I stalked off into the woods for a little while, trying to gather my thoughts. How had this snuck up on me so fast? I had just been in love with Sam nearly a few days ago and now, all I could even stand to think about was Jacob. My Alpha. The bane of my existence.

"Ugh." I grunted. I collapsed on the ground, I felt sleep deprived. And I knew that no one would want to talk to me if Jake wasn't okay so I closed my eyes and fell into a sound slumber.

I knew no one would want to talk to me, no one would want to come looking for me, and no one wanted me. My dreams reflected that nature. I was quite aware of my surroundings however, while I slept. Might have been my wolf senses but I neglected them and fell into an even sounder slumber.

Soon enough, I could hear a voice off in the distance. It was Jacob, he was healed. He was running towards me, no shirt and the sweat glistening off his abs. I got up off the ground.

"Jake!" I yelled.

His face was full of love and his eyes burned into mine. "Lee- Lee." He spoke softly.

"I was an idiot; I shouldn't have gone after that bloodsucker. I'm sorry." I began to cry. Full on tears just kept falling from my eyes and I couldn't stop them. Jacob came closer, keeping the look on his face, and wiped my tears. He smiled, and then turned to look behind him. It was Bella.

Suddenly before I knew what was going on, Jake was by her side, many feet away from me. His arms were around her and she leaned into his chest. Before they turned to walk off into the woods Jake pulled Bella into an embrace and kissed her deeply.

My gut ached.

'This must be a dream,' I thought. Then I heard the voice again, and was knocked back to consciousness. I sat up from where I just laid and looked around. It was dark out still, but I could see the light breaking close to the dawn approaching.

The voice sounded once more and I could finally understand who it was. It was Seth.

"Seth, I'm right here." I said in a normal voice, knowing he could hear me.

He grabbed my wrist and began to drag me out of the woods.

"Seth, what are you doing?"

"Jake wants you. He said it was urgent. I phased to see if you had phased out, but you hadn't." Seth said quickly, sounding like he was on a mission.

"Wait, Jake sent you to look for me?" I voice was soft.

"Well, he was a little groggy and wanted to see you for some reason. Probably to yell at you for going after that newborn; if I was him I would do the same thing." Seth chuckled.

My face flushed, "Jeez, thanks little brother. You're helping so much." I said sarcastically.

He put his arm around my shoulders, he stood so much taller than me these days, "I'm sorry, sis. Just gotta roll with the punches."

We arrived at Jake's; my heart was going a million miles an hour. Billy was rolling around in his wheelchair outside. He saw me near. "Leah."

"Hey, Billy. Is he awake?" I said a bit wearily.

"He's been asking for you. Go on in."

I went on in. I was hoping he wasn't going to rip my head off. And I was prepared for if he went livid, I would do the same. 'Typical Leah,' everyone would say. I sighed and walked up to his door, knocking lightly.

"Come on in, Leah.

Expect another update shortly. I'm on a roll.
