The next three days were filled. I needed to keep busy so the time would pass quickly and I'd see Leah again. I hung out with Jacob on Friday. He was working on the bikes. On Saturday I had to work. That was a drag. Then on Sunday, Jacob was finished fixing the bikes. They worked! We were planning to take them for a test drive. He was going to give me riding lessons.

On the way, we saw some guys jump off of a cliff. The water below was rocky and the waves were violent. It did not look safe. It looked deadly, I thought they were going to die. To be honest, I was freaking out!

"That's just Sam Uley and his gang," Jake said like it wasn't a big deal. "They're showing off. They'll be fine. They do this all the time."

"Sam Uley? Is that Leah's ex?"

"No, I'm pretty sure Sam is Leah's boyfriend. I haven't heard anything about them breaking up. They've been together for a long time, so that would be big news. I'm sure I would have heard about it. He's been hanging out with her cousin Emily a lot though."

"So, you think he's cheating on her?" My heart was racing so fast. Had Leah not dumped Sam? But what did Jake know anyway? I didn't need to panic about this.

I was panicking.

"I don't know. I try to stay out of it. They were still together after the spaghetti supper my dad hosted, I know that much."

"How do you know that?" I asked hastily.

"After you left, Sam came and got her. They looked pretty cozy, driving off together."

My heart dropped. I couldn't speak.

"You ok, Bells? You look white as a ghost, like, even more than usual." Jake thought he was being funny but he was actually being a twat. He had just told me that Sam and Leah were still together. How was I supposed to look?

I gulped but it went down hard. "I'm not feeling well."

"Do you still want to try out the bikes?" He asked. I knew he had been looking forward to this. He had been working on the bikes all week just so we could ride them together today. I had been looking forward to it, too.

My head felt funny, hot but not in a good way. "I think I need to go home and lie down."

Going home and lying down, it didn't help. I called the Clearwaters. Seth said Leah was at work. I knew that already! I asked him to have her call me when she got home. Then I just lay in my bed moping for hours. I had finally found someone who I wanted more than I had ever wanted Edward and… did she even really want me? Or did she just want her lousy ex? Not even her lousy ex! Her lousy boyfriend! These thoughts were in a loop, spinning in my mind, torturing me for hours. I felt like I was going to be sick.

"Bella! Phone!" Charlie called up the stairs.

I ran so fast that I tumbled down the last few stairs.

"Careful, Bella! Are you ok?" Charlie asked worriedly as I picked myself up off the floor.

"I'm fine, dad, I'm fine." I said, hobbling to the phone. "Hello?" I tried to sound cool. I wasn't successful.

"Bella! What happened? Are you hurt?" Leah asked, sounding even more worried than my dad.

"No, I'm not hurt." I was on the verge of tears but not from the fall. "I just tripped. That's all."

"You sound upset."

"I am upset."

"Tell me what happened," she said softly. She was so soft and strong and amazing and I was freaking out. Of course she didn't want me! I was a mess.

"Jake said he saw you and Sam getting cozy since the spaghetti dinner at Billy Black's." The butterflies in my stomach were going so crazy I thought they might fly out of my mouth. "Are you two still together?"

The moment before her answer was pure torture.

"What? No! I saw him that night. That's when I broke up with him. It was after the spaghetti supper. He came to pick me up. He said he wanted to talk but I could tell from his face that he just wanted to fuck. It pissed me off so much! And there was nothing cozy about it. It was a shouting match as soon as we were far enough away from the Black's house."

"Oh. Ok. I'm sorry I doubted you." I paused, not knowing what to say. She didn't know what to say either, it seemed. I felt stupid for going nuts over this. "I probably sound like a crazy person. It was just… you make me a little crazy, Leah."

"I'm a little crazy about you too," she whispered.

"Did you know that Sam was seeing your cousin too?" I asked. I wanted her to have all the facts. I also wanted to make sure she never wanted to go back to Sam Uley ever again.

"I found out after I broke up with him. One of her friends told me at school. I don't know what he was thinking. He was seeing both of us at once with no intention of breaking up with either of us. Like we wouldn't find out! The rez is small and everyone's gossiping all the time."

"You're too good for him," I reminded her.

"I don't want him, Bella, not anymore. Only you, ok?"

I nodded but then I remembered she couldn't see it over the phone. "Yeah, you're still coming tomorrow?"

"It's all I've been thinking about since Thursday." Aww. She was melting my heart.

"Me too, Leah. I've got that skirt washed and ready."

She groaned, then whispered, "Bella, no dirty talk. Mentioning that skirt is basically dirty talk. My parents are both within ear shot."

I laughed. "If you say so. I'll see you tomorrow, Leah."

"See you tomorrow."

Click.

The next day, I raced home after school. I took a really quick shower, hoping she was serious when she said we could lick each other. I put on my short skirt. I felt way more confident knowing that she liked it. I wore the push up bra that my mom got me that I had worn only once. Then I put on my tank top with the lowest neckline. It had three buttons and I unbuttoned them all. I didn't want there to be any doubt about what I wanted.

The doorbell rang just as I was finishing my hair. I took one last look in the mirror and I felt pretty good about what I saw. I looked kind of hot!

I ran to the door but I didn't trip this time. It was fucking Jake!

"You look amazing, Bells," he said, his eyes looking up and down my body. He was clearly appreciating what I was wearing.

"Jake, I have company coming," I said apologetically, practically pushing him out the door.

"Oh."

"I'm sorry, Jake, but I don't really have time today. Can you go?"

He looked so heartbroken. I felt so bad but I also really wanted to see Leah. She'd be here any second. "Sure, sure. I just wanted to make sure you were ok. And you look great. You're clearly doing a lot better. So enjoy your… whatever. Enjoy your company."

Leah was pulling in as he was heading toward his dad's car.

"Oh, are you two doing a double date or something?" He asked Leah.

Leah looked so fucking hot when she got out of the car. Under her coat, she was wearing a cocktail dress and stilettos. She towered over me when she stood next to me and I loved it. Dominate me, Leah, I thought, biting my lip as I looked up at her.

"Something like that," she said. "Bye, Jake." She gave him a little wave to indicate that she also wanted him to leave.

Leah grabbed my arm and walked me into the house. As soon as the door was closed, she hung up her coat and asked, "What was Jake doing here?" She sounded a little angry.

"He said he was checking on me because I felt sick yesterday." I was a smidge defensive but more annoyed that Jake had spoiled the mood. I wanted my tongue to be in her mouth by this point.

"You were sick yesterday?" She looked concerned now, no longer angry. We stood in the entryway looking at each other.

"No, I just told him that I was sick when he told me about you and Sam, that you were with him after the spaghetti supper. I needed to lie down for a bit."

"What's going on with you and Jake, Bella?" Leah asked. "There are rumors."

"We're just friends," I said quickly. "I only hang out with him when you're at work."

"Which is all the fucking time," she said, tilting her head in the cutest goddamn way. Was she jealous?

"Yeah. Why are you working so many hours?" I turned this around on her. I'd obviously rather be spending time with her.

"To save for college," she said it like it was totally obvious. "Bella, I don't like it. They say you hold his hand all the time. It makes me really jealous." Oh my god, she was jealous! That meant she really cared about me! She wanted me to be hers alone!

"Oh. I didn't think of that." I really hadn't, not until now. "Jake and I are just friends. I don't want to cut him off but I don't want to lose you even more."

"Lose me? Baby, you're not losing me." She sighed. "Just, please see him less than you see me. And don't hold his hand anymore. And please make it clear that you're just friends, that he's not going to be able to have you like that."

"I think I just did." I said, looking toward the door. "He knows I wasn't dressed up for him. He thinks we're going on a double date." I giggled.

Leah was staring at my chest. "You look so hot, Bella." She brushed her fingers along the top of my tank top.

"I love your shoes, Leah." I was looking down at her legs. "They make your legs look so… god damn!"

I reached one hand out and rested it on her hip

"Oh, thanks. I wasn't sure about wearing them but I decided to be bold and give it a try. Can we go to your room?"

I walked her up the stairs, holding her hand as I went ahead of her. I knew she could probably see up my skirt. I wasn't wearing panties and now she knew that, too. It made me feel things.

"Can we just get back to where we were before we were interrupted on Thursday?" I requested.

In response, Leah suavely pulled her bra out of her arm hole. After some awkward effort, I did the same. My cleavage basically disappeared without my push up bra.

She pulled my tank top off and gawked at my chest. I stepped toward her and unzipped her cocktail dress. With a shimmy, she let it slide down her body.

Since she was wearing the stilettos, her nipples were the same height as my mouth. I licked my lips and sucked one into my mouth. My hand cradled her other breast, or tried too. There was too much boob for my little hand. I was licking the nipple. I didn't know why but I wanted to play with that nipple with my tongue until the end of time.

My free hand was on her back, then on her butt, ever so slowly slipping my fingers under her panties.

She lifted me suddenly and tossed me on the bed. Oh boy! This was even better than I had anticipated. Her eyes were fixed on mine as she crawled toward me.

She stopped when her face was over my boobs. She lowered her head and nuzzled one tit, rubbing her cheek on it, then kissing it. The other boob she squeezed then let it go, not taking her eyes off of it.

She kept crawling until her amazing boobs were over my face. She lowered them so they were touching either side of my face. Then she quickly moved them back and forth, back and forth, like she was slapping my face with them over and over.

"Is that what you want?" She asked seductively.

"Yes!" I cried out but my voice was muffled by her titties.

"Good. That's what I want too." She lay down on her back next to me.

I got up and straddled her chest. I leaned forward so that my breasts were over her face too. I moved back and forth so I was slapping her with my boobs now. Then I went kind of up and down with them so that they were caressing the sides of her face. She sighed, "so nice."

I got off of her chest and lay down beside her. She turned to kiss me, her hands roaming down my back. She rolled a little more so she was above me, partly supported by her elbow, and partly crushing me. She rolled us both so I was on her now, but not crushing her. She was so strong and I was kind of small. I had a little weight on my elbow on one side of her and my hand on the bed on the other side.

One of my thighs landed between hers. Her thigh was between my legs. I gasped as I realized her thigh was right on my pussy. And it felt awesome!

She gently moved her legs in response to my movement. It felt even better. I briefly pulled away from our kiss to look at her.

She was as enthralled as I was. "This is really nice," she whispered, then crashed her mouth on mine again. Both her hands were on my ass now. She was moving me around gently. I realized she was moving me so I would rub on her pussy more. Fuck. It felt so good, riding her thigh like this.

I lifted my hand off the bed and grasped her boob. The softness was sucking my hand in again.

After grinding our bodies like this for a while, she gripped my hips and lifted me so I was straddling her stomach. "Sit on my face," she demanded. She pulled my hips in such a way, it was like she was forcing me to crawl forward.

"Ok." I was so thankful I took that extra shower. I moved her hair straight up on the pillow so I wouldn't squish it. Then I crawled up and lowered myself to her mouth.

I could only see her eyes but I could feel her tongue in me. She was exploring me, the depths of me. Her nose was rubbing on my clit ever so gently and it was insane. Her hands were on my boobs but she was looking at my face. I was wiggling, riding her face, a little out of control in the ecstasy of the moment. The pleasure I felt… I was whimpering over the edge.

I moved off of her face and down her body. She was only wearing panties. I pulled them to the side. For some reason, it felt urgent now. I wanted her. She watched me as I bent and spread her legs. I lowered my face and gently sucked in her clit. She gasped at the sensation. Her body jolted a little.

Then I heard, "Bells, you home?"

I released her and called back, "just a minute dad." I sucked it back into my mouth and licked it all over. I put two fingers into her, wanting to feel her insides.

"Is Leah with you?" He called again.

Fuck! "Yeah, Dad, we'll be down in a minute."

"Ok." He called up again.

I sucked on her clit again. Leah reluctantly said, "it's ok, Bella, we'll do this another time."

"I don't wanna." I pouted, sticking out my lower lip in an exaggerated way. "I've been waiting days for this and he comes home early, again!" I crawled up to her face and kissed her cheek. "I'm not done with you yet."

"You are for today." She started moving away from me on the bed. Then she rolled off and put her bra on.

I wanted to cry. Why was this affecting me so much? Why did I want her so bad?

Then she saw my face. "Oh, Bella!" She pulled me up off the bed and gave me a hug. "Maybe we could get back into it after we work on our college applications."

"Wanna have a sleepover?" I blurted out, hopeful that she would see the brilliance in that plan.

She smiled at me. "That sounds really fun. How about on the weekend?"

"Too far away." I pouted again.

"You are too cute. On Saturday I work the first shift and on Sunday I work the second shift, so there's a huge block of time for a sleepover. And I believe that your dad is going fishing with my dad this weekend."

"So that's a no to tonight?"

"Yeah, sweetie. I'd need to get up really early to get back to La Push and get ready for school on time and I know I'll be late. I won't want to leave you but I just can't afford to skip classes."

"Do you have any days off between now and then?"

"Thursday?" Her eyes looked so hopeful.

"I have to work this Thursday." I clenched my fists angrily.

"So I always have Mondays and Thursdays off. I'm going to request that my weekend schedule stays the same so we can see each other and have a sleepover whenever you want. Can you request those times off too?"

I nodded. She was completely dressed. She started dressing me now too. I pulled myself together and helped.

"Maybe we could dorm together next year." She said, "We could say I'm your emotional support human so they let us stay together."

I giggled.

My dad knocked on the door and stuck his head in. Leah was buttoning my top button. We both looked at him like it was the most natural thing in the world.

"Hi Leah. Bells, supper smells great. Are you guys almost ready to eat?"

"Leah?" I deferred to her appetite for supper.

"When did you make supper, Bella?" She asked.

"I made it in the crock pot. I started it this morning before school. Are you hungry?"

"Yeah," she said.

"We'll be down in a sec, dad, ok?" I tried to shoo him off with my not so subtle head gestures.

"Ok." He ducked his head back out and pulled the door closed.

"You need a lock on your door," Leah stated.

"I'll get one," I agreed.

We went downstairs and enjoyed dinner. Then we started working on college applications. I should say, I started working on my college application. Hers was completely filled out, essays and everything. She just wanted to walk me through the whole process to make sure I got it done.

"You're so good to me." I said after she explained the essay options.

"Bella, I don't want to freak you out, but you're really important to me. I never felt this way about Sam or anyone else, never. I don't really understand it, but I feel like I need you with me when I go to college, ok? Do you think you'll be able to get the essay done by Saturday? I'd like to mail them both at the same time."

"I can definitely do that. Essays are kind of my jam."

She smiled widely. "So you didn't need me to explain the essay options?"

"I liked it when you did that." I said, rubbing my fingers on her forearm in a gesture that I hoped she found seductive. "Need is such a vague term."

She rolled her eyes at me. "Walk me to my car, please, Bella." She said as she picked up all her stuff.

"Happily," I said giddily, knowing we'd be able to kiss again when we were outside.

I had my arm around her waist as we walked. Her arm was around my shoulder. It just felt right.

When we got to her car, she sat in the front seat, legs out the door. She pulled me down onto her lap and kissed me wildly. "I'm going to miss you until I see you this weekend." She confessed.

"I'm going to miss you too. My window is always open if you change your mind about a weekday sleepover," I offered again, hopeful that she would.

"That is so tempting, you have no idea how tempting it is. But I need to keep my grades up and I know I'll get no sleep with such beauty beside me."

Aww. I stroked her cheek. "Why is goodbye so hard?" I asked her.

"Because it feels so good to be together." She hugged me close.

"It really does." I put my cheek on her cheek, trying to absorb her essence. We stayed like that for a minute.

"I've really got to go," she whispered into my hair.

"I know." I kissed her cheek one last time and stood up.

It was painful to watch her drive away.
