PERFECT SYMMETRY
3. You oughta leave this town.
It was too soon.
It was too much.
It was too late.
There was no turning back, not anymore. Claire was already fast asleep in the backseat of the car. She had to practically tear her from Emily's strong grasp. Nessie was asleep as welll, sucking her thumb in a very human and childlike manner. Emily had dared to reach out for Nessie too, but the little half human had quick reflexes and had gracefully stepped out of her way hiding behind Leah.
Emily's words echoed in her ears.
Young, angry, unexperienced, careless, agressive, barren, bitch, bipolar...etc
She had probably listed all her faults under three minutes. And wether it was the adrenaline, the rush or the fear of the men's absence. She had ignored her and she had walked out. Maybe she was doing wrong, but then she was not supposed to do this on her own. Emily, Rachel and Kim were supposed to come with her. Staying back was not an option for them, they all knew they were in very grave danger if they decided to. They were going to be targets as soon as Aro discovered their value.
It was a risk Sam, Jared, Paul and Quil were not willing to while Leah had promised to extend her protection to them. She couldn't force these women to come. She was only accountable for the two little had promised Quil, Bella and Jacob. She had promised Sue and Seth. She had made too many promises.
But most of all she had promised herself that she wouldn't let them win. And if that meant running away, that was what she was going to do.
She would've pitied them if she could. Life had screwed them up.
But then again, once upon a time, in another life time, life had screwed up Leah too.
