Leah POV

I left the house and ran as fast as I could with it seeming unnatural through the crowds to the stalls. I don't know why but I'm 100% certain that she's here I just know it. Its up to me to find her and bring her to Seth somehow, no problem, I mean Seth is usually full of frickin sunshine and rainbows so once their together there should be no problem, he'll charm her for sure.

For once the thought of my brother all loved up didn't give me the urge to puke. Any thing to stop his depression even if it does involve him turning into a whipped love sick puppy. I'm sure I'll be able to put up with her, she cant be any worse than Emily right, I mean worst case scenario she's a 40 year old TV chef who's married with three kids but the spirits wouldn't do that to Seth. That's the kind of thing they'd do to me in their never ending quest to fuck up my life. Nah more likely his imprint will be little peppy girl who loves unicorns and has Bieber fever. If that's the case I'll hand her to Kim and just hold my tongue. I'll only ask for one thing from the ancestors, please on all that is sacred Taha Aki may she not like to bake!

I pushed my way through the crowds of people bustling around me and used my height to spot Moms' stall which of course, I should have guessed was right next to St. Emily and her frickin muffins. I walked behind the table and began to unpack the box of leather jewellery that Seth had made weeks ago in anticipation for the festival and began to display them. Placing them on the table I heard my Mom 'Leah, what did you do?' she asked suspiciously. 'What are you talking about?' I asked confused. 'You've a goofy grin on your face and you practically skipped over here' she said in disbelief 'what's going on?' I don't know was up with me, the biggest bitch in La Push nearly jumping with excitement. I pulled her close, bent down to her ear and spoke softly 'Seth's imprint is here' She gasped and looked up to me with wide eyes. 'Where? When? Seth!' 'Mom just calm down' the excitement was getting the better of her. 'I haven't seen her yet but I just know she's going to be here, I sent Seth to get cleaned up and when he comes we're going to find her, don't worry she's here somewhere.' Mom looked like a child on Christmas morning. 'Oh Leah, Seth will be happy again.' Her eyes beginning to fill up with tears of joy. 'Shh Mom don't cry.' My words did nothing to stop the tears so I decided to take a different approach. 'Mom if you're crying you won't be able to keep an eye out for if she gets close'. That worked she began to wipe her eyes and furiously search through the crowds. 'You're right! Quick back to work'. Nearly chuckling at her exuberance I reminded of her of one of our only clues. 'Remember Mom blue eyes.'

The crowds were gathering around the stalls and if I wasn't so preoccupied picking up different scents I would have been in fits laughing at Mom. She was acting ridiculous, calling over all the teenage girls and then routinely ignoring everyone else trying to make a purchase. Anytime a girl with even vaguely blue eyes would come over she would glance up at me with expectation hoping I would confirm the scent but every time I shook my head. I was trying to smell the customers and sell them the bracelets at the same time when an unfamiliar accent made me turn. I froze and I was hit with the scent that was so familiar from Seths' memories.

'Hey Emily' she said smiling. I grabbed Moms' hand and turned her to face Emily and the girl. 'Leah what are you- she started but then understanding flashed though her eyes. She gripped my arm and squeezed it tight but I barely noticed as we watched the blonde girl talk to Emily with anticipation. 'Niamh, hi! You made it!' 'Emily exclaimed' 'Yeah I brought my two cousins with me they're hoping to hear some stories' 'Oh well there is some starting down at the beach in a few minutes, my niece Claire is down there.' 'Can we go please Niamh?' I noticed for the first time the two identical girls by her side. Questions were flying around my brain the main one being how she knew Emily. 'Of course we'll head down there now but why don't you both pick a muffin to buy from Emily, I'll be right back I want to buy a slice of pie' she said glancing at us. We snapped out of our staring and rushed to the table to try and act natural. It briefly occurred to me that there were no customers in front of us; they must have got fed up waiting to be served. We both collected ourselves and took deep breaths as we watched Seths' imprint hand some money to the twins who were deliberating over muffins and walked towards Mom. 'Hello' she said with a friendly smile. 'Hello dear I'm Sue Clearwater and this is my daughter Leah' Mom said extending her hand. The girl looked slightly surprised at the introduction but shook her hand and smiled warmly. 'I'm Niamh'. NEEV I tried the name out in my head it suited her but it was an unusual name. 'Niamh lovely to meet you, would you like some pie?' Mom asked. Niamh looked down at the table and then suddenly stepped towards me. 'Wow these bracelets are gorgeous' She said picking up one of the higher quality friendship bracelets that are popular with tourist and often exchanged by children in middle school. 'Its beautiful' she said 'how much is it?' Mom answered $14' I gave Mom an automatic sharp look it was worth more than that but she ignored I suppose Seth would be angry if we charged her more he'd probably be annoyed at that price anyway. 'Really' Niamh asked looking shocked 'well in that case I'll take it and a slice of berry pie please'. Mom cut her a slice and handed it to her. 'No charge' she said. Niamh looked like she was about to argue when Mom spoke 'Please dear take it I don't often get young beautiful girls buying my pie'. Niamh started to get embarrassed when the young twin girls came running over. 'C'mon Niamh lets go!' She handed me $14 and said 'Thank you! Hope I see you both again' and she was dragged away by the little girls.

Emily walked over to us 'That was very generous of you Sue; she's a lovely girl isn't she?' 'She's perfect' Mom said tears threatening to fall again. Mom turned quickly to me. 'He should be here by now, Leah find him and get him to the beach'. She said. 'And try to help him make a good first impression'. I turned on my heel to find Seth and I heard Mom and the saint behind me. 'What's going on Sue?' 'She's Seths' imprint we've finally found her.'
