The Stories of Leah Clearwater - (Book One)

Chapter 14 - The journal and confession to Seth

A couple of weeks passed me by, Jacob and I were on patrol. Jacob kept replaying what he tried to write to write to the leech lover.

Bella,

I don’t know why you’re making Charlie carry notes to Billy like we’re in second grade - if I wanted to talk to you I would answer the

You made the choice here, okay?

You can’t have it both ways, when

What part of ‘mortal enemies’ is too complicated for you to

Look, I know I’m being a jerk, but theres just no way around

We can’t be friends when you’re spending all your time with a bunch of

It just makes it worse when I think about you you too much, so don’t write anymore

Yeah, I miss you too. A lot

Doesn’t change anything sorry.

Jacob

My brain ached having heard this at least 100 times now, I’d lost count. “Jacob please stop. I can’t take listening to it again. I don’t understand, why don’t you just answer the damn phone when she calls?”

Jacob kept running, “Sorry Leah. It’s not that easy to just say, “Hey Bells.”

I thought to myself, I would have said, “Hey leech lover.” Jacob growled softly. “Relax Jacob.” The growl disappeared,

“I’m just so confused. I love her so much-” I cut him off,

“But she loves the blood sucker.”

He growled in response to what I said. “She has to realize what a mistake she’s making being with him.” he said.

I kept running, “Jake if it’s what she want’s, you can’t interfere with it.” I could sense the pain he was in.

“She wants to become one of them. If she chose me she wouldn’t have to,” he stopped then it was whispered, “die.” I felt bad for him. Bella was being so selfish. She didn’t realize how much she was hurting Jacob. She didn’t have to hear his thoughts, but I did. I kept running and we looped back when I heard Sam, “Leah, Jacob your all set to go home. Paul and Embry will take over.”

I didn’t respond,

“Ok Sam thank you.” Jacob thought back.

We walked into the woods and disappeared. We always left a set of clothes to change back into. Jacob phased back and threw on a pair of shorts. I phased back and put on a pair of jeans and a white t-shirt and met up with Jacob.

“Hey.” Jacob smiled.

I smiled back a little bit and felt my cheeks flush a little.

“You ok there?” He grinned.

“Yeah I’m fine.” We started walking.

“Thanks for listening to me vent. I really needed that.”

I smiled, “I understand where your coming from Jacob.”

He looked at me.

“What?” I asked.

He shrugged, “Nothing. Just something you said.” Before I knew it we were at my house. “Well, here we are. I need to be getting home. Until tomorrow, sleep well and sweet dreams.” he smiled.

I just zoned out, answering in a far away voice, “Thank you Sam.”

Jacob looked at me, “Uh, you mean Jake right?”
