PERFECT SYMMETRY
59. I know
"What the hell is going on?" Rebecca said storming into Leah's living room, where Seth and Sam were restraining a very angry Jake, while Quil and Jared stood blocking the hallway that went to the bathroom.
"Becca wait"Rachel said trailing behind her sister. But Rebecca was too busy glaring at everyone. Still nobody talked. Emily who was in the kitchen came out with a glass of water and gave it to Rebecca.
She was about to protest but the front door opened again. And Leah walked in looking tired. Everybody turned to look at her and Leah gave a nod to Seth and Sam, and Jake was immediately released. Quil looked up to her and she nodded again.
"My mom and Charlie took them. They're probably spending the night with them"She explained "Seth would you mind taking their things to Mom's. June left with Mom too"
"Where's Embry?"Leah finally asked.
"Bathroom with Kim. "Leah asssumed he was being tended to. She finally let her gaze rest up on Jake's and Jake nodded once, leaving the house without saying anything.
"Leah I'm going to start getting the food inside"Said Emily "Rachel and Becca can help me"
"Hold on"Becca finally said turning to Leah "What the hell is going on. Someone needs to explain me. And it better be now"
Leah sighed "Go help Emily and I'll explain you myself. I just need to talk to Jake first"
"Leah..." Rebecca said in a warning tone
"Fuck, Becca just do it. I'll explain" Leah said snapping at her friend.
"Come on Becks"Rachel said pulling her twin before Leah and her started a unnecessary argument.
Finally Leah stepped outside and walked the small trail that led directly to the cliffs. Jake was standing there, his back to her.
"Why didn't you tell me?"It was the only thing he asked.
"Because it was not my place"And Leah firmly believed so. It was Embry's call. Not hers. "He didn't want to say anything, because Becca is married and your sister"
"More reason to say something"Jacob mumbled "He's supposed to be my best friend Leah"
"He's your best friend"She said more firmly "And you just lost it. Jake what the hell was that"
"I'm just.."Leah placed a han on his shoulder.
"This is very hard for him"She whispered.
"I know"Jake said in the same hushed tones. They both relaxed. Jake took one of her hands in his and squeezed really hard.
They said nothing. There was no need.
"Becca's going to freak out"When he finally said that. Leah knew all the tension was gone and he was one step towards acceptance.
Leah laughed a little relieved "I don't think so. You give her too little credit"
"You give her too much"Jacob snorted.
"I love you ."
"I know"She grinned.
"You love me too"
"I know"She said her smile getting wider.
"You're telling her"
"I know"She said smacking his arm.
"You're the best fiancee ever"Jacob said kisisng her cheek loudly and guiding them back to the laughed and teased her the whole way.
Sure he loved Leah more than life. But there was no freaking way he was telling his big sister about the imprint. Oh no. Leah could deal with her crazy.
