Jacob

Hearing Leah's thoughts intrude my head left me so bewildered I went reeling backwards. It took me a few moments to reassemble myself before I replied.

What the HELL, Leah? How did you get here?

It doesn't matter. I need to tell you something.

I turned my head to the side. It was surprising; I had expected her to sound angry or something. Instead she sounded almost… excited. I waited for her to continue. She appeared to be struggling internally. I couldn't hear what that struggle was, though. I decided her thoughts must be similar to the ones I shared with Sam. Only those I wanted her to hear.

She closed her eyes, and an image began to flood my mind. It was one of impeccable detail, and very colourful. I watched as the outcome began to unfold. When it did, I just stared. Leah, upon seeing my reaction, quickly started to justify it.

I had this dream. Jacob, I need it to be real. I want Renesmee.

I honestly couldn't believe what I was hearing. Leah. Lusting after my Ness. Was the world going insane? When Leah started to speak again, I decided it was.

Please Jacob. I love her.

At those words, I suddenly understood. Although I now knew what had happened, it still made no sense. So I accused her, hoping for a proper explanation.

You IMPRINTED on Ness?!

Leah nodded only once, but it was enough. I let out a howl, so shocked there was no other reaction plausible. Once finished, I looked desperately over at Ness. She was confused; that was fair enough. As I stared, another image pelted my mind.

It was of Ness and Leah, together. This time I was an onlooker. I was about to curse Leah to high heaven, when I realised it wasn't her generating the image. I shivered. The idea was strangely intriguing.

NO. I would not.

Leah, you can't be serious. Ness is mine.

Leah's answering expression was one of pure torture; she really had imprinted upon Ness, and I knew the feeling.

Please, Jake.

My head was spinning with a thousand different thoughts. In the end I landed on one.

But Leah, I need her too.

Leah nodded extremely quickly.

I understand! Please, though!

A faint sound pricked my ears. People were coming. It must be the vampires.

We can't continue this. Edward will hear.

Leah's face creased with worry. She jumped slightly, and I understood she was ready to run at the slightest warning. Another crack from far away assaulted my hearing. Agonising for only a second, I made my choice. I grinned, unable to stop the flow of pictures entering my mind.

Leah. Think we could share?

Her reaction was priceless; a mix of such joy and excitement it was impossible not to laugh at. I was vaguely aware of the vamps getting closer and closer, but I was too focused on my brilliant new plan.

I rushed over to Ness and picked her up, placing her on my back. Turning, I gazed into her eyes and let her know she could trust me. She seemed more at ease, and didn't protest when we started to run.

The vampires could only have been a hundred metres away when the three of us set off; Edward must have been able to hear us.

Unable to resist myself, I sent him one clear idea before we sprinted away. I knew he'd received it when from deep in the forest came a furious roar. Both Leah and I laughed loudly to ourselves; the laughter coming out as barks. When Edward roared again, this time with words, I barely managed to keep going; it was so hysterical. I did so, however, with the thought of Edward skinning me alive chasing me along.

As we ran, all I could think of was Edward's last outraged shout, following me through the trees. The hilarity kept me almost out of breath, and yet it made the distance we needed to travel seem minimal. Shrieking with laughter, Leah replayed the scream for me one more time.
