"Leah?" Emily asked, walking into the room in her dress.
"Yeah." I answered. "Why are you in your dress?" I asked her.
"Just making sure it still fits for tomorrow." She said. "How do I look?" She asked.
"Great. Emily don't worry." I laughed. "Last time I checked Sam was a were wolf not a vampire, so the baby should grow pretty normally..." I told her. She smiled.
"You are right." She said. "I guess I'll go take it off..." She walked out of the room and I frowned... She seems so worried. She doesn't even know how lucky she is... I wish. I wish I could have a baby... But I know I can't... I know I'm a genetic dead end and that is why I am a were wolf.. But well, I can't help but wish.. And even if I could.. It would do to me what it did to Bella... Right?
"Hey.. Leah?" I heard Alice say.
"Yeah?" I responded.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
"I don't even know..." I muttered. I looked around, I was sitting in the kitchen in front of a sandwich...
"Eat. Eat. Eat!" She said. What was I going to do once I ate, ate, ate?
I started eating, slowly, trying to keep my mind off the depressing subject from the moments earlier...
"Emily. Are you okay?" Alice asked. Emily came back in and sat down to eat her sandwich.
"Yeah, I am fine." She told her.
"So, are you going to stay over tonight? Or do you have to go home?" Alice asked. Yes, Alice was staying over tonight. I don't know why.. I mean the wedding wasn't until six at night... But whatever...
"I'm staying." She said. "Sam is going to bring a bag of my stuff over later tonight." She told Alice, who was writing something down.
"Eat, eat, eat." She said again.
"What is the big hurry, Alice?" I asked. She smiled.
"We have to pack your stuff up to take to the new house." She replied. I nodded."Jasper is coming over later to help Seth take it all over there." She told me. "So, we need to finish before he gets here." She added.
"Okay." I said, finishing my sandwich. Emily was finishing too, so we all stood up and Alice led us up the stairs to my room. I didn't have much.. Not really. So, my things would fit in maybe two of the suitcases that Alice had brought.
"Where should we start?" Alice asked.
"Lets get the clothes first." I told her heading to my closet and beginning to take things out and put them on the bed. Alice opened the suitcase and put the cloths in. Emily stood by me and helped me take the clothes out of the closet. Alice was smiling... The shirt I had just taken out of the closet, I hadn't seen in years.. It was still damp... From that night... It was the night Sam had told me. Why it was wet.. Is a bit of a mystery... It might have been raining. I wouldn't have noticed... I was crying too hard.. I couldn't believe that it was still wet. Maybe I was just imaging it... ... ...
"What is it, Leah?" Emily asked.
"Nothing." I said, choking back the tears that were threatening to fall. I set the shirt down and pulled the last few things out of the bottom of my closet.
"What next?" Alice asked.
"I guess the stuff in my dresser.." I muttered.
Alice, Emily, and I sat in the living room, with the bags on the floor. Alice was smiling at me, and Emily was looking at her watch.
The door bell rang and Alice jumped up in one fluid movement and went to the door. Seth came down the steps and smiled at me.
He picked up one of the bags and walked out the door. Jasper came in and waved at me, before picking up the other bag and walking out the door.
Alice came back into the room and sat down beside me on the couch. "Now..." I muttered. "What do we do now?" I asked, Alice.
"Listen to loud music... Have pillow fights... Think back to your teen age days... What did you do at sleep overs?" She asked, walking to the radio and turning it up as loud as it could go up.
"Alice!" I whined. "Turn the music down!" I told her.
"Okay, okay." She said turning the music down.
The door bell rang yet again and I went to answer it, while Alice turned the music down. Upon opening the door I saw Sam, holding a backpack in his hands...
"Hello, Leah." He said, awkwardly.
"Hey, Sam!" I beamed.
"I brought Emily's things." He told me.
"Okay. Come on in." He fallowed me into the living room and walked over to Emily. He handed her the bag and she smiled.
"Thanks!" She smiled.
"You are very welcome." He replied, before walking over to the door. "I guess I will leave you three to your sleep over." He laughed.
He walked out of the room and out the door...
"What now?" I asked.
"I'll be right back." Alice answered. She left the room for a minute and then appeared in the doorway holding six pillows....
Alice threw two pillows at me and two at Emily... Watch it Alice... No need to hurt the Emily...
I threw a pillow at Alice- kind of hard... just as a warning..- and she laughed and then nodded.
Emily threw one at me, then one at Alice...
We were all laughing so hard... It was the first time with Emily that there had been no awkwardness...
Emily was the first to collapse on the couch and wave her hand in the air like a flag, which caused Alice and I to laugh even harder... "What is so funny?" Emily asked, acting hurt, although she was laughing too.
"That was funny, Em!" I answered.
I am sure Emily hadn't heard the door bell ring over the laughter and music...
I walked to the door in my pajamas and was surprised to see Jacob standing there looking at the ground....
"Hey, Jake!" I beamed. "What's up?" I asked.
"Umm... Well, I kind of wanted to talk to you..."
"About what Jake?" I asked, still smiling.
"Come on... Lets take a walk." He said.
"Okay..." I muttered. "Guys.. I'll be right back." I told the girls.
Jake and I walked slowly into the trees and I got a little nervous... The fading light of the day made it hard to see much other than his figure...
"So, whats up Jake?" I asked him.
"Okay... I just wanted to... Leah... Won't you be careful?" He asked.
"What?"
"Leah. I don't want what happened to Bella to happen to you." He told me, still looking at the ground.
"It won't Jake. I'm a genetic dead end." I told him, sadly.
"How do you know?" He challenged.
"I am a were wolf." I told him angrily. This was the subject I couldn't bear to think of.
"But Leah..."
"Jake. Don't worry. I won't be having any kids." I told him, before running off back to the house.
"What did he want?" Emily asked, while Alice looked at me sympathetically.
"Nothing." I said.
