Discliamer: I own nothing.

I woke up to the smell of…what was it? Sandwiches? I guess so. I smelled the jelly and peanut butter but the bread kind of smelled like…vampire?
I opened my eyes quickly, scanning the dark room that lie ahead of me.
"She's awake." Someone said. I didn't recognize his voice at first. But…
"What's he doing here?" I asked putting as much venom in my voice as I could manage for not having one at least. I sounded like I had a frog in my throat. The smell in the room smelled so bad that even my throat wanted to run from its place.
"Jacob?" I croaked out.
"Ya I'm here." He whispered. He took a couple of steps forward and wiped the hair off of my forehead.
"Why..are they here?" I asked, looking at the stupid leech loving couple with their stupid daughter.
"Reneeseme was worried."
"She doesn't even know me-" I was cut off by my own coughs.
"You need to rest. You've been out for hours."
"Did what's his name-"
"Yes. He did your surgery while you were sleeping."
"So help me Jake, I'll phase right here if they don't leave now."
"But Leah-" Bella tried to start. Who does she think she is? Just because she's one of them, just because her daughter and Jacob imprinted, it doesn't mean she can walk right in like any of this is her business!
"Don't you even dare talk to me." Bitch.
Edward snarled at the thought but if he didn't like it then he can get the fuck out.
"Leah, in your current condition you shouldn't talk right now. Your bones are still trying to heal properly. Any sudden movement can make your situation a whole lot worse." Translation: Shut up and don't infuriate my family.
I'll can do what I want when I want. "You don't get to tell me what to do." I started shaking violently, clenching my teeth, and griping onto the blankets. Like it wasn't already fucking hot in here! I can't stand this smell, the heat, the lights off! I mean I can barely see Jake and he's sitting right in front of me. Most of all I absolutely can't stand bloodsuckers.
"Get out right now!" My voice cracked as I tried to scream weakly at them.
"LEAH DON'T!" Sam shouted. Oh my god everyone I couldn't care less about is here. What a small fucking world.
I could tell they left when they murmured their goodbyes. I calmed down a whole lot when they were gone although my body felt like a thousand pounds and I was sweating like cookies in an oven.
My nose was plugged up so I couldn't breathe through it and the smell of the peanut butter almost made me throw up.
"Get me a wet rag will you Sam? She's burning up again." He said while checking my temperature with his hand.
"Of course." And with that he left.
"Leah? How're you feeling?" I opened my eyes to see Seth's anxious face.
"I feel…sick." I finished lamely. I felt like a little kid who just watched a movie on how chicken nuggets were made.
"Psh, you should with that kind of temperature." Jake mentioned.
"What time is it?" I asked.
"Three in the morning."
"Oh, I've only been out…for a couple of hours." I whispered, almost falling asleep again. Too much stress in so little time makes me tired.
"You've been out for twenty eight hours straight." Twenty eight hours?! There's no way I could be out for that long!
I opened my eyes to look at Jake again. "So, you mean-"
"Yes, that little incident happened two days ago."
Wow. Time fly's fast when you're dead to the world. Jacob pulled the sheets up to my neck and let out a long suffering sigh.
"You should get some more sleep Leah. Now that we know you can wake up."
"What are you talking about-"
Seth interrupted me this time. "Leah, you had us scared to death. Most of us anyways. You had the highest fever ever and the healing thing wasn't doing much to help you out. You kept talking about Dad…" He made a slip. His voice faltered at the end and his eyes clouded over. What did I say exactly? To upset Seth this much? Or even worse, scare him.
"Seth, what did I say?"
I saw Jacob give Seth a look and that meant he wasn't going to tell me anything.
"But we're glad your okay. Really Leah, don't scare us again okay?" He looked back at me giving a small smile. How could I make him this upset? I just don't fucking get it.
"Seth you should get some sleep too. You're exhausted, staying up for nights and days can't be good for you." Jacob told him while he yawned and rubbed his eyes.
"You did the same thing!" Seth protested. "I'll live."
"I'm older than you. Go, now." Jake said pointing at the door.
"Alright, alright. Love ya Leah, feel better soon." He waved at me then walked out of the room.
"You're staying?" I asked Jacob. If he hasn't been sleeping in days then he should definitely get some now. I can't believe they spent all night and day just waiting for me to wake up. They really do care. I never thought Jake could care about anyone but himself but he's really changed now.
"Someone has to make sure you stay alive." He said smiling at me. It was a warm smile, a soft one. I like him when he's in a good mood. He's nice to everyone but…why is he being so nice to me now? What have I done for him? I should really give him a lot more respect. As for the other guys…well that's a whole other story.
And as for the spawn devils…"Why did you bring them here? You know I hate them." I told him putting the venom back into my voice.
"It was necessary Leah. You could have been disabled for life, imagine trying to phase with a bad bone." He told me. Still! To know that a dirty fucking blood sucker touched me! The insides of me! I could be infected or something. The bastard. I could have just had a regular doc do it for me.
Besides, you don't need every bone.
Jake sighed deeply again, looking annoyed, yet tired. I am making this harder for him. He probably wishes that I'd just shut up and sleep. Some much for my respect. But I warned him. Sam and Jacob both, I told them not to drag the Adam's family into this. If this was my house, one of them would be dead right now.
"Sam called Carlisle, Edward found out then Bella asked what happened then Nessie got worried slash wanted to see me, Bella didn't think Nessie shouldn't be around you, Edward didn't want them to go but Carlisle thought it was safe and so they all showed up." He took a deep breath and then rubbed his head.
Think happy thoughts Leah, just think happy thoughts. Killing them once and for all…as if Jacob would ever let me. Killing one of them would mean my own death.
"I warned the others not to come but Reneeseme insisted on it." Jacob continued like I wasn't venting to my self in my head or anything.
"Can you turn the light on please?" Forget it. I'm going to argue with him. He would win in the end.
"No, the power's still off from that night. There's a major blizzard outside and Sam told everyone that we shouldn't go outdoors until the sky clears up."
"Anyways, you should be fine by late afternoon. You could probably do a thousand push ups if you wanted to." Jacob said laughing at himself.
"Ya, ya, I'll bitch about everything later. I'm not in the mood." I said and closed my eyes.
"Thank god for that."
He laughed again, making a couple of weak chuckles come out from myself.
"Leah Clearwater laughing? Wait, let me go put this on my calendar."
"Don't push your luck."
"Good night Leah." And with that I dosed off. But right before I fell asleep, someone…or something…kissed me on my cheek. I didn't know if it was Sam… I didn't see him come back in, or maybe it was my mom…but the only other person in that room with me was Jacob. Did he really?

This time when I woke up, it was afternoonish. No one was in my room, more or less, Emily's room and I thanked whoever for that. Jacob is right though, I felt better already. There was only the slightest pain but nothing I couldn't handle. I should wait another hour or two but…fuck that I'm starving. Not to mention I got to go to the ladies room plus take a shower.
I got up slowly taking my time with no rush. Jake's lover must be here or I'm going to have to clean my nose out with bleach from the last encounter with the vamps.
After I took my shower, I put on a tank top and some sweats. It was still incredible hot in here for having five foot deep snow outside.
I walked down stairs to see Jacob and the infant on the couch sleeping, Paul lying down in front of the fireplace, Emily making sandwiches again and Sam sitting on the bottom of the stairs. Embry, Quil, Jared, and Seth were outside having a snowball fight.
It felt awkward in the room. It was like someone just died…it certainly smelled like it.
"Please don't tell me that's peanut butter and jelly." I told Emily, walking down the stairs. Four pairs of eyes instantly shot up at me. Paul sat right up, Emily nearly dropped her plate, and Sam stood up as fast as lightning. The devil smiled at me and the angel was still fast asleep.
"Leah!" Emily walked over to the stairs to come greet me. "How're you feeling?"
"I'm hungry."
"Good! I made salami sandwiches and macaroni salad. Come sit down." She said walking away to get a plate for me.
Sam looked at me warily as if I was about to collapse or something. Paul was doing the same.
"Maybe you should go lie back down Leah. You're not looking so good." Sam suggested.
"No, I'm fine. I just need some food is all." Sam…still the warm caring sweet gentle guy…who will never be with me again. Kind of like Jacob…what am I thinking? Jacob? No way, I must be on meds or something.
I took a sit in the kitchen and started gulping down my food. Emily put her hand on my forehead checking for my temperature again.
"You're still burning up a little." How would she know? I'm like seven more degrees hotter than her in Fahrenheit.
"I'm okay." I really just wanted to keep eating.
"Um, Sam we should cancel the plan for today." Emily said looking over at him.
He grabbed a seat next to me and started eating as well.
"Ya I'll call everyone in an hour or so. Leah how are you? You really had us worried and don't lie either."
"I said I'm fine." I said a bit peeved. What do they want me to do? What Jake said? A thousand push ups? "What plans did you have for today?"
"It's nothing really." Emily said.
"Please just tell me."
Emily gave Sam a questioning look and then he looked back at me with those wary eyes again.
"The plows were going to come around five and at six we were going to head into town and pick up all the outfits…for the...erm…"
"The wedding. It's fine I can handle it." I just can't think about it too much and I'll be fine.
"Please don't cancel it. I'll be ready by then."
"What's the harm in waiting another day? Leah you just recovered and there's no need to rush."
"Look, just do it today okay. If not then I'll just go into town myself and you know how it is at night."
"Leah I don't think-"
"Look I can take care of myself okay?"
Sam and Emily exchanged glances but finally agreed.
"Leah you're up!" Jacob said walking sleepily to us with his rodent in his arms.
"Ya, you too."
"You doin' okay?"
I nodded. If I have to say that I'm fine one more time I'm going to chop of somebody's tongue.
"Jake you look like a real dog who hasn't taken a bath in days. Go take one now." I chuckled at that one…Sam actually made me chuckle? I guess he was as curious as I was because he gave me kind of a funny look. I was still shaking a little bit from the presence of that four or five year old monster. I've been wondering though…will that mean that Jacob is going to live forever if his imprint does or what?
I stood up from my chair and rinsed my plates off. "Well, I'm going for a walk. I'll see you guys in a bit."
"Wait! I'm coming with you." Jake said. No way in hell, I can't have the leech coming with me anywhere.
"That's not going to-"
"Leah, please. I need to talk to you. Nessie will stay here." He put her down and then grabbed a coat for me and him.
"Love you Nessie, I'll be back."
"Love you too!" She said with a smile.
We walked out the door and trudged through the snow until we found some high ground to walk on.
"Alright, shoot." I said.
He looked kind of nervous. Like student who has to be in play but is stage fright.
"There's a vampire clan out there somewhere. One of them is looking for you. He said that a short great wolf came and killed his sister and he wants revenge now. We might be headed into a whole other war. I'm sure the Cullen's will help us out to return the favors we did for them. You're not to go out anywhere alone. Especially in the woods. Understood? I've got my eyes on you Leah and don't even think about facing them alone. We fight as a pack understood? If something were to happen to you, that burden will be on my shoulders for as long as I live, so please to mess around. You got it?" He gave a hard cold stare, but underneath his mask I could see the worry in his eyes.
Do I understand? I do remember killing a girl…but she was on our land. Jake even helped me finish her off. She was tracking down Billy or something. But to think that I got a whole clan of leeches after me kind of makes me dangerous. Don't you think?
"Ya, I got it. I'll be careful I promise."
"Sam doesn't know yet but we're planning on telling him. Only our pack knows and breaking the news to his pack tomorrow. For tonight, let's just have have some fun okay?"
"Yeah, okay."
He gave me a one armed sideways hug, holding me tight to him.
Next to my ear he whispered, "Don't worry, we'll protect you," And then he winked at me, letting go.
My life just became a bit more interesting.
