Sorry for not updating. Again. :(

LEAH POV

I was miserable. Now I knew what the rest of the guys in the pack meant when they said they didn't like being away from thier imprintees for too long. It physically hurt, and it made you sick with worry that they were hurt, or in danger, or worse.

It made me mad that I was worrying about a bloodsucker.

The whole pack knew about my imprint. They figured out as soon as we phased after the battle a few days ago. Sam threw a fit, Paul was angry, and Seth, Embry, Quil, and Jared were shocked. Jacob and Seth were the only ones that understood.

Jacob had said, "Leah, you can't control who you imprint on. It's obvious that you and this vamp were made for each other."

Seth had said, "Sis, Jake's right. Ya know, I'm gonna buy you some plane tickets to Italy!"

And he did.

Mom hadn't freaked out. She knew what I was going through. It was times like these when I wished that Dad was still here.

Seth and Mom had both pitched in to buy me a round trip to Volterra. It surprised me, but I was relieved that I could finally talk to him.

When I had told the Cullens yesterday, they all went crazy. Esme had only smiled at me, and congratualted me on finding someone. Carlisle had did the same, but he had given me some advice.

"Caius is a very difficult creature. I have lived with him before. He has a terrible temper, and he does not usually look on the bright side of things. He is bloodthirsty and power hungry. And, he is married." Carlisle had said.

I'm sure my expression had changed, because he quickly said, "But, I have observed the relashionship between Caius and Athenodora. They aren't as close as the couples in this family are, but...he does love her. It's hard to see, but, he does. I wish you good luck."

That had made me mad. But an imprint was forever. It is a sign that two people are meant to be, and no matter what the imprintee wants, they eventually start to feel things for thier imprinter.

The other Cullens had very understanding, except that Rosalie. She had thrown me an evil glance, and said harshly, "Can't you dogs ever find someone of your own species?!" She kept saying things like that until the big one, Emmett, dragged her away from me.

I had left then.

I was leaving in a few hours. I had everything packed. I only planned on staying for tomorrow, because the flight would be landing at five am, but Mom insisted that I pack a change of clothes in case anything happened. Such as me phasing and ripping my clothes.

I had to be at the airport in an hour. Until then, I laid in my bed and though about Caius.

He was so perfect. I know I loved him. I didn't know anything about him, except that he was evil and married.

I had been waiting so long for my imprint. I wanted it to be a special moment, with hopefully a human, or maybe someone from the pack.

But no, stupid me went and imprinted on a vampire! It was just my luck.

But I really did love him. l just had to accept it.

"Leah, come on. The flight leaves in an hour and a half." My mom came through my door.

Wow, time passes fast.

I got up, grabbed my bag, and followed her out to the car. Seth was already in the back seat.

The ride to the airport was silent. When we arrived, mom and Seth hugged me and said bye. Mom handed me my passport, and showed me where to wait.

Soon, I was on the plane. It was comfy, even though it wasn't first class. I was sitting alone at a window seat, so I guess that helped. I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep.

Pretty soon, I would be in Volterra.
