Chapter 10

Voices


Leah's Point of View.

Jake made me feel a hell of a lot better. He was always good with words. Even within his presence he makes me feel at ease, more happy so to say.

As I entered the room, the emotion of happiness evaporated from my system. I felt like I was being stranded in a room with a bunch of stiff zombies.

"Are things better?" I asked.

"Somewhat, dear. He's not improving as much, but Carlisle is doing is his best."

"Maybe his best isn't enough," I said under my breath, quite bitterly.

"Be respectful, this is hard as it is," said Sue.

"It's hard."

"It's not just hard on you, you know. Seth is in pain as you and I are. Don't think that you're alone in this Leah."

"Where is dad?" I asked.

"He's resting in the guest room."

"Alright, thanks mom."

"Uh-huh," she murmured under her breath.

I walked into the guest room, sighing under my breath. I at least wanted to have some good reassuring word with my father if anything bad ought to happen.

Seeing my father in this condition just pained me, because I believe this was my fault. I don't give a shit what other people say, it's my fault. He was startled at my transformation.

"Daddy," I whispered as I sat down in the chair next to his bed.

There were wires everywhere and his breathing was really heavy. The loath I have on those pesky vampires has increased so rapidly. The only one that wasn't so bad was Carlisle, but still without them maybe my dad would be somewhat happy.

He should of listen to my mom when she told him to cut down on the sweets, but still those stupid Cullens are more to blame.

His hand started to move a bit, when I went to hold onto to it. My eyes got teary and the emotions of fear, sadness, yet happiness overwhelmed me. The sting in my eyes as my father twitched at my touch.

He started to move a bit, clenching down on his heart. I panicked, I tired to scream, but no sound came out.

I cleared my throat, "Mom!"

Sue rushed into the room right away.

"Oh my, he's starting to respond."

"Daddy, please don't leave me and Seth, please, don't. Stay, I love you."

I broke down, almost losing it when Seth entered the room. Carlisle rushed into the room afterwards.

"Leah," grumbled Harry.

"Yeah, dad," I said shaking and sobbing.

"You're special darling. I love you."

"I love you too, please, please don't leave me, Seth, and mom. We'd be so lost without you."

He shut his eyes for a moment, but as Carlisle did some of his doctor stuff, Harry's breathing seem to get better.

"With hearing your voice, he got a bit better. I think if you convince him enough to fight he might make it."

"Thank you Carlisle," said my mom.

"Your welcome, I'll do whatever I can to save him," said Carlisle as he nodded gracefully leaving the room.

Seth was quite, his face the same expression from start to finish. He showed almost no emotion, which was not like Seth.

I worried for my brother so much. Dad was the person he could go to, but if dad were to leave us then who would my bro turn to.

I stayed in my dad's room with my mom and baby bro all day. Seth and I didn't even have enough emotion to get pissed and phase.

"Leah, can I talk to you?" asked Sam.

I turned around and scowled at him. "I want to stay here with my father until he gets better. I understand me and Seth have responsibility to the tribe, but right now my father's life is more important than that rubbish."

"I understand, that's why I'm not making you and Seth phase until you actually do. I just want to talk to you."

"I understand you want to talk to me, but I don't want to talk to you Sam."

"Maybe another time," he said quietly leaving the room.

"I hate how much this is effecting you Leah," said Sue.

"I hate it too, but there's nothing that I can do about it. The spirits hate me mom."

"Don't say that hun."

"I don't even know anything anymore mom. I feel as if my life is crashing down. Did I do something horrible to them so horrible, that they had to cause me all this pain."

I started to cry and let heavy sobs out of my chest. My mom clung on me and Seth got up to give me and mom a hug. I felt a presence behind me, but I was to engaged in this family moment to give a damn on who it was.

"Leah," said Sam.

"Didn't I just tell you I don't want to talk to you."

"I know, but I just wanted to let you know I love you. I love you a lot Leah Clearwater."

I smiled as more tears fell down my face. "I love you too, Sam Uley."

He smiled as Sue motioned for him to come and sit with them on the small couch the wolf members had brought in so that they could all set and relax on as they were watching Harry.

Sam put his arm around me and he let me sob into his chest loudly.


Morning approached sooner that I would of that. I woke up next to Sam with Seth and mom by my side. I felt awfully tired of yesterdays events. Carlisle was already in the house running scans on my sick father.

"He's getting better. When he does get better, you need to put him on a well balanced diet. I think he should be fully healed within a week or two. His heart and pulse are getting better."

"Seriously?" I asked with joy. I was so glad to know that my father would be able to get a chance of living. If he didn't I probably wouldn't have the ability to move on further with the living of my guilt.

"Seriously, Miss. Clearwater."

I smiled with mom and Seth as we heard the news. My father was going to be alright. That was all I could hope for.

"Even if he does, I need to run scans on him often and give him medications on his heart. I know that if he knew I was treating him he might not approve, but try to convince him for me," said Carlisle.

Even though I hate his bloodsucker kids I gave him a hug. He smelled badly.

"Thanks," I said.

"No problem," he said smiling. "I'm surprised you would even touch me."

"Well I don't know, you did help save my father, so I don't care even if you do reek."

Carlisle smiled nodding his head before leaving the household.

"Don't go soft on the vampires yet," said Sam.

"He did save my father."

"You just never know Leah."

"Sam don't be so ridiculously."

"Carlisle is good, the others you can't be sure about."

"You got that right, dog," said Victoria as me and Sam walked out the door to grab some fresh air.

"Shit!" shouted Sam, as a dealy howl erupted during the sunrise.
