A/N: I love you guys! thanks so much for the reviews, the hits and the alerts! My exam today went well, so I'm a little over-excited right now! But back to the story, this one of my favorite chapters of the story. It's kinda sad fluff between a werewolf and his imprint. I felt like I needed to write this, just to show how tied Seth and Amy are. I hope you enjoy it.

During the evening, Seth came home. I was watching TV and went to kitchen when I heard him entering. "Hi Seth." I smiled.
But he looked furious. "Don't." He said coldly.
"Don't what?" I asked confused. "Seth, what's wrong? What happened?"
"Leah told me everything."
"Leah told you what?"
"Don't play dumb on me, Amy. I know everything." He growled.
"Seth, I don't know what you're talking about. Please tell me. Whatever it is, you know you can tell me, right?"
"Doesn't that work both ways?" I asked. His voice sounded really detached.
"Of course, it does."
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
"Tell you what?"
"Leah heard you talking to my mom this afternoon. She told me you're planning on leaving."
"Oh, right." Was all I could bring out. I was shocked. Couldn't Leah just shut up?
"So, that's all you've got to say?"
"What do you want me to say?"
"I want you to say she's wrong."
"You want me to lie to you." I said. It wasn't a question, it was a fact.
Seth shook his head heavily and I saw tears in his eyes. He started trembling, and I knew I had to be careful now. "Seth, sshh…, calm down." I stepped slowly to him.
He looked at me with cold eyes. "No Amy, I don't need this crap! You pretended you loved me, and I believed you!"
"I never pretended that, nor will I!" I shouted back. "Hell yes, I wanna go home, I miss my life. I miss my dad, my sister, my best friends! I had a life I loved before I ended up here! And I now I hate it. I hate the idea of leaving here, of leaving you. I love you, Seth, I really do. But I miss my home. Is that so wrong?" Anger had made place for sadness by now, and I was crying. "I've never said I didn't know it would be hard on you if I left, but it won't be easy on me either."
"Oh shit Amy, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." Seth's voice sounded really upset, probably because he saw me crying. He stepped to me to hug me, and I let him. "I'm so sorry, please forgive me." He whispered in my ear.
"I've never been mad at you, Seth. I couldn't." I whispered back and kissed softly his neck. "I've only been mad at myself. I'm the one who's put you in this mess, who has put us in this mess."
He shook his head. "Don't be mad at yourself. You couldn't be the one to blame, never. I don't want to hear you say such things. Never."
I stepped a little back from him, tears still in my eyes. "But it is, Seth. So please forgive me when I find my way back home. Please forgive for breaking your heart then."
"I'll always be waiting for you, Amy. I promise."
"No, Seth. You deserve a proper girl, someone who can stay with you and make you happy. And I'm just not that girl."
"Yes, you are. There's a reason I imprinted on you, Amy; I just know, 'kay? So stop blaming yourself. You're the best thing that's ever happened to me. And I'll always love you, and I'll be waiting."
"Thank you." I started crying again. That's the most beautiful thing anyone had ever said to me. And I knew he meant it. He'd keep his promise, anyway. And he'd be the one who was gonna left behind, broken. And I hated myself for it, I just did.

We stood there hugging for another 15 minutes, until Leah came into the room. She sighed heavily and exited again. I let go of Seth and ran after her.
"What's wrong, Leah? Why did you tell that to Seth? I wanted to tell him myself." I said.
"You don't know how much devotion he feels for you. You don't know a thing about a broken heart. And I didn't really tell him on purpose. He read my mind while we were both wolves this afternoon. One of the not always so pleasant side effects of being a werewolf. I'm sorry I told him, but he had the right to know. I know how he feels." She said calmly, but stern.
"I know you do, and I'm sorry. I just didn't know how to react." I nearly whispered.
Leah sighed. "It's okay, I guess. I heard you saying this wasn't going to be easy on you either. I guess I can understand that."
"Thank you, Leah." I smiled and hugged her instinctively. She first boggled a little, but gave in eventually and hugged me back.
"So, does that mean we're friends?" She asked hesitantly. She seemed annoyed with it, but I heard a little hope in her voice too, like she was happy, sort of.
"I don't know. You want to be?"
"It could make things easier on Seth." She admitted.
"Okay then, friends for Seth's sake?" I asked, stretching my hand to her.
She nodded. "Friends for Seth's sake." She confirmed and shook my hand briefly. I even saw a little smile on her lips.

Leah didn't seem the worst person in the world. I now understood better how she felt about Sam and Emily, and about me and Seth. We'd both be heartbroken when I had to leave, though I didn't want to leave. But I knew I couldn't stay either.
Well, I can tell you, life can be damned hard!
