Okay don't hate me. It's been 2 weeks since I've updated. I was supposed to go home last weekend to update but we went to some people's house so I couldn't update. But I'm back now! There's no need to fear an update is here!
I'm only me when I'm with you
Chapter 8
Leah POV
"You'll get hurt. Get Ray out of here." Jacob said. What the hell? I can be careful. I pulled Rachel away anyway as she saw Jake phased into a giant russet wolf.
When we got to Jacob's home Rachel sat on the couch.
"What. Was. That." She said slowly.
"Um you know the stories about Quiletes being wolves? Well they're true. Jake, Seth, Sam, Jared, Paul, Quil, and Embry are all wolves. And so am I." I said.
"You're being so nonchalant. Are you serious?" she said.
"Um, yes it's the reason your brother exploded into a wolf." I said.
"Who was that pale woman?" she asked.
"The redhead? That's the bloodsucking vampire we've been after. She attacked me and now Jake won't let me fight." I said.
"Whoa, Vampire?"
"How could he not let me fight? Sure I almost died, but only once. I'm not a child. It's retarded." I complained.
"Lee? I'm freaking out here!"
"Ray! I'm hungry!" I said. She pulled me into the kitchen. She microwaved a piece of pizza and sat at the tiny kitchen table with me.
"Okay you are going to answer some questions. When did you first phase as a wolf?" she asked.
"Not that long ago. My hair straightener broke and I phased through the window. I ran trying to figure out what happened to me… then Jake came. Bella was leaving him and he phased and imprinted on me." I said.
"I don't understand."
"I need a hair straightener."
"No. Bella? Bella Swan? Imprinting?"
"Well, Bella vampire boyfriend dumped her and she came crying to Jake. He fell in love with her and then Edwierd came back and she took him back. So basically she broke you little bro's heart." I said.
"Imprinting?"
"Oh yeah! When Jake was sadly running home he imprinted on me! Imprinting is like when gravity shifts. Gravity dosen't hold you there anymore. That person does. It's werewolf thing." I explained.
"Aw that's so romantic!"
"Pau imprinted on you. Sorry I had to break it to you. That's why Jake freaked out."
Really? Omigod! That is so awesome. Is it like love at first sight? Together forever? Marriage? Can you name your and Jake's kid Bob? AHH!"She screamed.
"Bob?"
"Yup."
"Um, Ray I can't .. have…. Kids." I said looking down.
"What?"
"Um well, because I phased and we freeze in time. So I can't have kids." I said focusing on my hands in my lap.
"So you guys live forever?" she asked.
"No we stop phasing when we're ready."
"Then when you stop phasing you can have kids. Lee, why are you so upset about this? You're only 18. You aren't even out of high school." She complained.
"Yeah but I wanna have kids sometime." I said.
"And you will. But for now please don't rape my baby brother." She said. I rolled my eyes.
It was kinda nice being able to tell Rachel everything. She and Rebecca were my best friends. I knew she was uncomfortable with me talking about Jake being my boyfriend but she respected that I loved him. After our shaving party I got worried about what was going on with Victoria and the pack. I dialed Jakes number and it went into voicemail. This worried me he usually stops and phases to human to pick up his cell. A battle must be going on.
"Hey Jake. I just wanted to know what's happening with the battle and everything. Kay call me bye." I said.
"What's wrong?" Rachel said, coming in after I left a him the message.
"Theres a fight with the redhead and I don't know whats going on. I'm scraed." I said.
"They're strong. They can do it." She said Comforting me.
"Thanks." I said.
"I'm going to go to the bathroom okay?" she said.
"Kay."
She ran up the stairs and then I heard her scream.
