Leah POV
"And that pretty much sums up my love life." I was exhausted, but finally being able to get the hurt out was refreshing.
"Mmm..I see. You know, you never told me your favorite color."
"What? I guess if you want to know its purple. No one's really asked me that in a while, it never seemed important."
"I see....Mine's navy blue," he said abruptly. "Seems to me that you need to get away, further than only four hours away."
"You're right," I admitted. I did need to get away, from everything really. There was no nagging sense in the back of my mind, just the warning about this new vampire.
"Okay, its my turn to ask the questions. What's your name?"
"Jarrett."
"Well, what about your love life?"
"Uh....hasn't happened yet."
"Sheesh."
"I wasn't exactly the most amazing guy in my old town..."
"Which is?"
"Later."
"Okay. Friends?"
"There were these two guys, Jack and Hal, pretty cool, always up to adventure, yeah, they're my friends I guess."
"You guess?" I raised my eyebrows.
"Yeah, they kinda, well, its complicated."
"Don't I know that word." I sighed.
"You know, there's this place-" He trailed off. I knew what he would say, that he was going there, possibly forever, and he would ask if I'd like to come along.
"What color were your eyes?"
"Green." I nodded. I briefly closed my eyes, and imagined him with green eyes. He looked kind of hot.
"Well, would you?" There was no need to extend the question, I knew what he meant. Yeah. But, there's somehing I need-" My voice suddenly quieted. "Back at h- back at La Push." I used to call it home, but that's different now. He nodded.
"How long?"
"Like an hour." I was going to start over, hopefully teach the guy to eat animals and human food, not humans.
"Are you going to run?" I shook my head. I didn't want them to know I was back, till I left again.
"I'm gonna have to commit grand theft auto again." I sighed. Getting up, I walked toard the road.
"Meet back here!" He called, before immersing himself into the trees.

I got out of the car after pulling into my- Sue's driveway. Surprise, surprise, I could hear commotion in the house, and I saw a curtain briefly being lifted up then thrown down. What fun. Marching up to the house, I wrenched the door open and ran up the stairs grabbing the few things I needed. Credit card, college savings, a few shirts and pants, and stuffed it in a random bag I found under my bed. Bracing myself for the argument, I went downstairs.
"No." The look on Black's face when he saw the suitcase was priceless.
"Yes." I glared at him, daring him to use the alpha command on me. I didn't know if it would work as human anyway.
"No." He answered just as stubbornly. Well, now let's see who has the last laugh.
"I thought I said I never wanted to see you again!"
"Who said I wanted to see you?" His eyes did, but I didn't say so. He knew.
"You had time to leave," I pointed out instead.
"Why don't you?"
"I just was."
"JAKE!" My brother was somewhere between tears and anger. The pack just stared at me.
"Don't tell her to leave Jake, she's going to for sure now."
"My leaving doesn't matter on his words Sam.I don't even know why you and the other pack are here. Unless I just barged in on a "party" than you shouldn't be here."
"Leah, I know you don't want me in your house-" A laugh escaped my lips.
"You don't get it, do you? This isn't my house, the rez isn't my home, and none of you are my pack anymore. I'm leaving." At this point everyone was in shock.
"Who is he?" Jacob was glaring at me.
"Who's who?" I said innocently.
"Leah, as much as you're telling us you're just leaving, there's gotta be a backround reason." Jake looked at me, and I turned away.
"You are only provoking her!" Seth really was shedding tears now. "Leah, please. Don't leave." I had to look away. I was going away, and never coming back. I walked out the door and jumped into the car. It had went well, they knew it was a lost case, but, the fact didn't escape them that I had stolen a car. Ah, the shocked faces were something priceless. Oh crap. They could smell the vampire scent on me. I sped away before they were thinking of phasing. Wonderful.
