PERFECT SYMMETRY
47. I'm happy
There's something about summer that she simply loves. She basks in the beauty that the sunlight brings into their otherwise rainy and musky places. The filtering rays of sunlight play with the colors of the cliffs, the forest and the sea. It's easy to get lost in the colorful mesh, when your eye can see what the human eye can't.
She always knew there was a reason why she had liked this place growing up, it feels magical. But now she loves it, and it's exciting to think that in just a month, this will be the place she'll call home. The crashing waves the sound to which she'll wake up, and to a starry sky to what she'll fall asleep .
Birthdays, anniversaries, sunday mornings, and more. The place where Claire and Nessie will grow up. A place that will get filled with memories of them.
Of her family. To think of the word almost brings tears to her eyes. No one could've prepared her for it, no one would've guessed. Yet here she is. Watching her two girls play on the grass a couple of feet away. And he is here ,next to her, enjoying the playful banter between her brother and Quil, with his imprint and Claire.
A smile that has nothing to do with the scenery, steals upon her.
"We're really doing this" And there's still a little bit of surprise in her voice that only makes Jacob chuckle.
"Yes we are"And Leah doesn't doubt him but a quick glance at the other wolves makes her pause.
"Are you really sure?"
"You said it yourself, Seth's almost eighteen. And Embry is responsible, they may have to look out for Quil but they'll do fine" Jacob tries to put her doubts to rest and pulls her into his body.
"I wasn't talking about them. I mean I'm concerned but it's not that. I mean with Claire and Nessie-"
"Leah" He makes her look at him when he speaks again "You and I. We're in this together. And we're going to be a family. The four of us"
"They deserve a family"She whispers.
"And we'll give them just that. Two loving, good looking and maybe a little too young parents"She has to bury her face in his neck, because a sob escapes her lips.
"Jake"She mumbles.
"Why are you crying?"
"Because I'm happy"And even thought is barely a murmur. Her happiness touches every single wolf within hearing range. Because they all know very well how long it's been since she uttered those two words.
