Leah's POV

His pink lips press against mine, I feel my own lips mould around him. His lips are soft, careful. He's shy, knowing this is the first time we've ever kissed. I press myself closer to him, my arms snaking up to wind round his neck. I run my tongue along his bottom lip, making him open his mouth to allow me access. Our tongues battled for dominance before he over powers me, taking control.

"Ew, not in the kitchen!" I hear a voice, Quil? Why is his voice so far away.

"Quil, mommy does that!" I hear little Claire say. "I don;t like it!"

"You will one day" I say, pulling back from the kiss.

"No" she says stubbornly, ending the conversation by leaving the room.

"Hows the whole daycare business going?" I ask, folding my arms across my chest.

"Leave him alone Leah" Luke chuckles, winding an arm back around my waist.

"I don't know, you tell me" Quil shot back anyway, turning to leave.

"Same age! We're the same age!" I call after him.

"Come on, lets go to the beach. I've missed it" Luke pulls at my hand, dragging me to the door.

"More than me?" I ask in a small voice, almost afraid of what the answer would be.

"No, not more than you. I missed you most above everything else" he assures me, landing a kiss on my forehead.

A week after that bonfire, the one where he found out he was my imprint, we had went on our first date. It was only something small, a picnic in the forest; at our spot. Our spot? The place where he found out about me being a shape-shifter. We ate the food...I ate the food and talked long into the afternoon. Soon it was time to go home. I was shy that day, and before going inside my house I had just laid a small kiss on his cheek. The next day I was busy with patrol, an extra day's work for taking the day before off; meaning I never saw Luke.

When I went to see him after that day, he wasn't there. All that was left for me was a letter, handed to me by his aunt as I stood on the porch steps. I sat down, slowly tugging the envelope open. I pulled out the folded paper, my heart racing as I unfolded it. The words made my heart brake, tear flew freely and I soon found myself in Kim's arms. It wasn't her arms I wanted to be in though, it was Luke's. Even though that was a year ago, I still remember the words scribbled on the paper.

Leah,

I'm sorry. So, so sorry. I tried to ring you, I wanted to explain properly but your cell just went to voice-mail. My parents called, I have to go back. To 'try and sort things out'. Believe me, I don't want to. If I could, I would stay; trust me I would. The consoling thing is a year long, if it doesn't work I can come back. And I'm telling you, it sure as hell wont work. I'm going to miss you so much. I knew from that bonfire, maybe before then, that I love you. I love you Silver.

As soon as the tears of being left stopped, I ran home at full speed. Screw watching eyes, I didn't care. I stormed into my room, throwing clothes around wildly until I found my phone. Battery dead. I stuck the charger in, commanding it to charge up. The five minutes it took for it to turn on felt like an eternity. Like hell. I had rung Luke, begging for him to come back but he couldn't. He wasn't yet eighteen, meaning he had to do as his parents said.

The consoling hadn't worked, Luke never let it. He threw fits against his family, trying to make his disgust for them as obvious as possible. We had kept in contact, sent letters, spoke over the phone and often video chatted over the internet. As he was my imprint, it was torture to be away from him. This helped though, at least I could talk and see him. When the year was up, Luke came back to La Push. I was the first person he came to visit upon his return...

Its been a week since he returned home and we've spent everyday together. We officially over weighed the scales, tipping over to 'Officially dating'; which I like. We had been everywhere in La Push and Forks apart from the beach.

As we walk down the road, I skip happily in front. What the fuck is wrong with me? I never skip. Oh well, I'm enjoying this. I continue my skipping, feeling my hair hitting my neck and shoulders lightly. It was just longer than shoulder-length now. Short enough not be be a pain in wolf form but long enough to suit me in human form.

"When are you patrolling again?" Luke asks, walking slowly behind me.

"Not until eleven tomorrow" I reply, slowing down my skipping slightly.

"Are you staying over again tonight?" he questions as he takes my hand.

"Yep, you have no say about it" I inform him with a smile.

"I wasn't about to complain" he grinned back. "I was just thinking, now I have to pet dogs in the house."

"Dogs?!" I screeched, pulling my hand from his to slap him. "I'm not a dog! I'm a wolf! A wolf, Luke."

chuckling, he pulls me into the circle of his arms. "I know, I'm just messing with you."

For the last three nights, I had been staying round Luke's. Nothing happened, god, we only just had our first kiss! It felt good though, sleeping beside him. It made me feel safer and happier, knowing he was there next to me. It made both of us relax more, knowing neither of us was about to just up in the middle of the night and leave the other. We just needed each others company. Simple as that.

"So, when am I going to see my wolf?" He asks, pulling me onto the pebbled beach.

"You want to see her?" I question, eyebrow raised.

"Yeah, it's been over a year. I've been with you a week and you still haven't let the wolf out the bag" he says.

"Lets go then" I start heading towards the trees boarding the beach.

"Now?" disbelief covers his voice.

"Yeah" I nod. "Might as well. You've seen the beach."

"For like a second" he laughs, walking beside me to the trees.

"Long enough" I push on his shoulders, making him sit on a large piece of driftwood. "Wait here, I'll be right back."

I jog into the trees three feet away, removing my shirt as soon as I'm behind a tree. As I continue to get undressed, my body shakes; reading for the shift. My bones start to change shape, fur pushing through the barrier of skin. I keep my eyes shut until my paws hit the ground. When I open my eyes, everything's much clearer; the colours standing out more.

I slowly walk out of the trees, shaking my silver fur out. Luke stands up, smiling as he walks towards me. He runs a hand down face, stopping to scratch the sensitive spot behind my right ear. I growl with happiness, push my head against his had; stealing a laugh from him.

He lowers his lips to my wolf forehead. "Beautiful as ever."

I snort in reply, disagreeing with his complement.

"I missed you so much Leah. I'm happy you shifted for me" he says quietly, taking a step back to look at me. After a minute, he reaches hand out to touch me again.

"Dude! What the hell?! Stop, that thing could be dangerous!" a voice from the left shouts, grabbing our attention.

"What?" Luke asks, confused.

"That's a wild wolf. A wolf that's the size of a freaking wolf!" the Quileute boys says. "Back away slowly."

"She won't hurt me, I've known her a long time" Luke informs him. "She trusts me. She even protected me against another pack of wolves this time last year."

I rub my head against his shoulder, proving the point of me trusting him. He wraps an arm around my neck, hugging me to his side. I rub my nose against his cheek before giving him a wolf's version of a kiss on the cheek...a lick on the cheek. He laughs, playfully slapping me away.

"How did you tame her?" the boy asks, slowly stepping closer.

"I didn't. She liked me from the start" Luke tells him. "I've seen her in fights though, she's no tame girl though. Are you Silver?"

I pounce on him, knocking him to the ground as a reply.

"Stop!" he laughs as I lick his face.

"She really does like you" the boy observed.

Luke shrugs, seeming bored. "She's annoying."

I snarled at him, biting his hand lightly.

"I was joking! You know I love you" he amened quickly.

I licked the hurt spot better before resting my head on his lap.

"Don't get all cuddly. Go and find Leah, bring her back" he pushes me off his lap.

I bump his head with my shoulder before heading back into the trees.

I take my time shifting and getting changed, knowing I would have to put on a show for the unknown boy. I button up my shorts before stepping from behind my tree and heading back to the beach. I step onto the pebbled shore, fear coiling in my stomach. I can't see the Quileute boy... or Luke.
