-Leah's Point Of View-

(A week later)

I curled up in a ball, and it helped that Jacob was right next to me. He had his arm wrapped around my waist and would clam me when the sobs came again. After a long time Jacob finally said something. "You know, the funeral is coming up soon. You have to go. It'll be the last time you see your dad." Jacob whispered into my hair.

"I know you're right, but I don't want to. I'm scared that I'll be hoping that he will wake up and yawn like the way he does when he would sleep on the couch. You know?" I whispered back. I felt the pain coming back. Jacob shh me and I just took a deep breath.

"I know this isn't the time but I need to know. What about Paul?" Jacob whispered sounded scared to ask.

"I decided to forget about him. He is the reason that sick bastard was here, so I'm done with him! I hope never to see him again." I nearly yelled. Jacob soothed me.

"Okay, okay. I'm sorry I asked honey." Jacob whispered and ran his fingers through my hair. I sighed and rested my head against the pillow, all of a sudden exhausted. "I think you should go to sleep. I'll be here when you wake up. I promise."

"Please keep your promise." I whispered. Jacob nodded and laid down next to me.

I woke up in about three hours later. A tear trail down my face. Jacob wasn't next to me, I sat up quickly. I even felt the panic grow inside me. "Jacob?" I yelled and got out of bed. I walked around down stairs and saw that Jacob was in the kitchen, shirtless, making breakfast. He looked up from the stove and saw me. He looked shocked when he saw me standing there. I must have looked horrible. "Why didn't you answer me?"

"Leah. I'm sorry but I thought you wouldn't be up until four in the morning. I-I had to go somewhere to meet up with Sam and Seth. Seth is doing fine." Jacob said with one of his famous smiles. I tried to smile back to him.

"I really hate for you to see me like this." I whispered.

"Hey, I think if I've seen your best I can see you at your worst." Jacob whispered back to me. "Trust me. You are still very beautiful."

"Jacob." I said with a frown.

"I'm only telling you the truth. I think you should go outside today. You haven't been out since, the thing." Jacob whispered and I frowned.

"No, what if something happens? What if you know who is outside? Waiting for me. I don't think I'm ready." I whispered back.

"Lee, where is the confident girl, the one who didn't show fear, did everything with more balls then most boys?" Jacob nearly yelled. I got mad,

"She died along with her dad! You know what, fuck you Jacob! Leave my house, now! I don't want to see you ever again." I yelled.

Jacob got the hurt look on his face. "Leah, I"-

"No, shut the fuck up and leave!" I yelled and Jacob walked away. I curled into a ball and started crying.
