Thanks for the wonderful reviews loves! Sorry I have not posted another chapter in a while. I was at a block in my writing, but now I think I am over it. So here is the idea of this chapter. This will display how Leah is a family girl and is always a mother figure to people. This idea came from two of you, you all must read each other's minds lol. So big thanks to JacobFan and Kei Kat Jones! And thanks to you all for reading and reviewing!
I do not own Twilight or the characters!
Jacob's POV
When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses.~ Joyce Brothers
After laying in the bed forever, we decided to get up and find something productive to though there are many productive things to do in bed. Leah came out of the bathroom with her hair sopping wet and the towel clung to her skin.
" Why are you eye fucking me Black," Leah asked bending over to dig clothes out of her drawer. Why do women always tease men like that? I got up from the bed and walked closely behind her. " Jake I'm trying to get dressed here."
" And I'm trying to undress you," I smiled and smacked her towel covered ass.
Leah stood up and glared at me. I smirked at her and wrapped my arms around her waist.
" You know you love me," I said pecking her lips. She frowned and tried to pull away, my grip tightened. "Why must you always play hard to get?"
" Hmm, I don't know. I love to tease you, it's fun," Leah said finally getting out of my grip. She grabbed her clothes and headed back to the bathroom, she dropped her towel at the door and turned to wink at me. I shook my head and grabbed my shirt.
" So what's over the Cullen's," Leah asked tapping her fingers on the window.
" They are cooking food for us and I am going to teach EJ how to throw a football."
" Didn't you try that already, I don't believe it was very successful. If I recall, a window was broken in the process," Leah replied.
I rolled my eyes. " That wasn't my fault. The kid has mad throwing skills."
" Really? So that's why he threw the ball at the window instead of to you? You were no where near the window," Leah said laughing. I slapped her arm and turned my attention back to the road.
" He is learning Lee."
" I don't understand how he is not good at it. He is half vampire, can't they do everything," Leah asked eating a piece of candy she stole from my cup holder.
" I am going to have to start hiding my candy," I replied.
" But I don't hide mine from you," Leah said in a seductive voice.
" Shut up Leah," I spat sarcastically.
I pulled up in front of the Cullen's mostly glass house and got out of the car.
" Jake," EJ ran out the front door and hugged my legs. He smiled up at Leah and then ran back into the house.
" EJ. Oh that's what he was running after," Esme said at the door. She picked EJ up and we followed her into the house.
" Well hello there love birds. We haven't seen you two in a while," Carlisle said from behind a book.
" Been a little busy with pack business and stuff," Leah replied walking into the kitchen. It was funny how much Leah had changed since our first run-in with the Cullens. At first she would not step foot close to their front yard and now she was acting like this was her second home. She didn't complain about the smell as much anymore, although she said Bella smelled the worse. Bella smelled just the same as all the other vampires, I think Leah is just exaggerating a bit. She did that often.
" Are these mash potatoes just for me," Leah asked peeking her head out of the kitchen.
" Yes I cooked a whole pot just for you. And I cooked a whole pot of sweet corn for you Jake. I don't see how you two eat that disgusting stuff," Esme stated with a chuckle.
"Well blood isn't on my menu," I said walking into the kitchen.
" Coming to teach EJ how to throw a ball through the window again," Edward asked walking in the backdoor. Bella was right behind him with a flower pot in her hand.
" It was an accident. Let's just drop it okay?" I pulled a plate out of the cabinet and began scooping food on it.
" I don't think EJ really even likes football. I bet baseball would make him really happy," Bella suggested sitting on a stool. She swept her hair over her shoulder, revealing her golden eyes.
" Are you trying to be funny," Leah asked dipping a wooden spoon into the pot of mashed potatoes.
Bella rolled her eyes. " No I'm just saying he will like baseball better. He has to learn how to play anyway. In a few years he will be able to participate in our annual vampire baseball games."
" Alice sees him as a pitcher, but I don't think she is willing to give up her spot," Edward laughed.
" I heard my name," Alice floated down the steps and sat on a stool at the counter.
" We were just talking about how EJ will take your spot as pitcher," I said.
" Ha ha. No he won't be taking my spot, but we will share. So who is going to teach him how to pitch? Please tell me Jake is not doing it," Alice replied widening her eyes.
" I can try to teach the little guy. I pitched a little bit with my dad when I was little," Leah offered.
" Try not to corrupt my kid," Edward replied.
" I think he has his family for that," I said eating a piece of meat loaf. Leah smiled and patted my hand.
" Well we will leave you two to eat. I have to finish the garden," Bella got up and headed back to the yard with the flower pot. Edward and Alice left the kitchen leaving me and Leah alone.
" So you are going to teach little EJ how to pitch," I asked Leah.
" Yep. Maybe you can teach him how to fix up cars and how to throw a punch," Leah said finishing up the pot of potatoes. " But you didn't finish your reasons for loving me. I haven't forgotten about that by the way."
" I will finish up later. Let's go get EJ so you can show him your skills." I took Leah's hand and led her to the living room. EJ was playing with a toy plane while Emmett was rooting for a basketball team on TV.
" I knew I smelt something weird," Rosalie said smirking and sitting next to Emmett.
Leah opened her mouth to say something but I tapped her arm. Her and Rosalie still did not see eye to eye. But who really did see eye to eye with Rosalie, Emmett was the only one who did. At least most of the time he did.
" Hi to you too Rose," I replied.
" I heard you two are going to teach EJ some skills with the baseball. I'm sure he will catch on fast, he is half vamp after all," Emmett said turning the TV on mute.
" Leah is the one that is going to show him. I am just going to watch," I said as EJ ran the toy plane into my leg.
" Oh so wolf bitch is going to be teaching my nephew how to throw a ball. Awww maybe you will play fetch for him," Rosalie said.
" Very funny Rosabitch," Leah said and picked up EJ. " I will make sure to teach him how to kill his aunt instead."
Emmett and I shook our heads at the two bickering women. I followed Leah out to the back yard.
" You are going to teach me how to throw," EJ asked grabbing for the baseball.
" Yep, but first let me show you. Jacob get right there so I can throw to you," Leah pointed to a spot by the tree. She threw the ball and I caught it and threw it back.
" See how I stepped back on this foot and where I put my arm," Leah asked EJ. I walked over to them and helped EJ get into position.
" This is one other thing I love about you," I said as EJ threw the ball at the ground. Leah chuckled at EJ and turned to me.
" And what is that," Leah asked.
" You do so well at the mother figure thing. Remember that time Claire broke her arm?"
Leah nodded her hand and handed the ball back to EJ.
Claire was almost worse off than Bella when it came to clumsiness. When Claire was walking around, every object needed to be moved out of the way.
Quil was chasing Claire through the grass. She dodged little rocks that she spotted but there was one she completely looked over. The one that made her trip and fall directly on her arm .Claire let out a ear piercing scream and Leah jumped up. Emily was right behind her but of course not as quick.
" I want Aunt Leah," Claire screamed out as Emily tried to pick her up. Emily shrugged her shoulders and stepped back. Quil comforted Claire as Leah carried her towards the front of the house.
" I can drive," I offered digging my car keys out my pocket.
" I think she broke it," Sam said trying to get Claire to move her arm. She just yelled out louder and clung to Leah with her good arm.
"We should hurry," Leah said running Claire to my car. Claire's cries had calmed down a little and she reached for Quil. Leah handed her to him and climbed in the front seat.
The doctor put a pink cast on Claire's arm, that made her feel a little better. She sucked on her lollipop as Leah and Emily talked to the doctor.
" Feeling better kid," I asked ruffling her hair. She nodded and smiled weakly.
" I don't think it's a good idea to have her running around Quil," Seth said.
" I forget she is so clumsy sometimes. I mean she is still young and her equilibrium is still a little off," Quil replied.
" In six weeks they will take it off," Leah said as her and Emily walked up.
" Is that a long time," Claire asked with big eyes.
" Well not really," Sam said picking her up.
" Are you lying Uncle Sam," Claire asked.
We all laughed as Sam searched for words to say. Who knew a person under 4 foot could shut Sam up?
" It will go by fast," Emily said kissing Claire's cheek.
Leah took care of Claire the whole time she had her cast. Leah drew little drawings on it and fed Claire a lot of ice cream when her arm hurt her. I had never seen Leah's nice side, but when it came to family she did show compassion. She was nice to me after I got hurt in the newborn battle, well she was nice for two days. After that she went back to teasing me about Bella and how I let a vampire almost kill me. But she did say thank you for helping her out.
" That girl is so clumsy," Leah said. EJ threw the ball forward and it actually went a distance. " Good job little man."
EJ grinned and ran after the ball.
" You are really good with him," I said kissing Leah's forehead.
" Aw I'm okay," Leah replied taking the ball back from EJ. She stood in front of him and held her hands out.
EJ threw the ball to Leah and clapped his hands. " I did it!"
" Maybe baseball is your thing," I said taking Leah's spot. I moved back a little more and held my hands out. EJ drew back his arm and launched the ball forward. " Okay baseball is your thing."
" I am going to tell my daddy I can play in the games now," EJ ran into the house.
" Well you did good there Lee," I put my arm around her shoulders.
" Thanks you helped me out a bit," Leah looked up at me. I leaned down and captured her lips .
" Maybe we can have a little one of our own," I asked raising an eyebrow.
" Ha! Very funny Black. You have to be kidding?"
" Duh," I replied.
I really wasn't kidding.
