Dark Waters (Twilight Fan-Fic)

Chapter 5 (Leah pov)

After that whole 'mess' with Jacob and Simon, I suddenly found myself lingering in the tree lines. I scoffed, I couldn't stand this...the bleach smell that lingered in the air because of those leeches but somehow Simon was different. He is different. The only leech I'm not disgusted by and not even repulsed...I'm trying so hard to push the anger out on him but the best I could do was blame him for my 'change' and my dad's death...but we both know it wasn't his fault...unfortunately.

'You know he isn't that bad of a guy' Seth chimed in with his thoughts, his sandy colored wolf approaching from the side of me. I let out a huff that sounded nearly a growl that heaved from my chest. Seth let out slight whine, nuzzling my shoulder in comfort.

'I want to hate him...I don't want this.' I replied back mentally, I glanced over to him before turning my eyes back onto the leeches 'lair'.

'But you can't and you'll never will...it's meant to be' Seth stated, he knows me more than anyone. I sighed in defeat, I know it was useless. Seth sat close to me and shoved me with his shoulder playfully, I shot him a look that was replied with a wolfy smile.

'What about we go to mom's and Charlie's?' Seth suggested, I contemplated if I should leave. Everything in me just kept feeling this sort of bond with Simon, pulling me harder and harder to the lair.

'Yeah...it would be nice to see mom' I replied, I got up on my four paws as I turned to a spot so that I can shift back into my 'normal' self until I spotted Simon coming out of the house. His wavy dark brown hair was slightly damped, his eyes was a darker amber than the last time I saw him, his face was emotionless as he let out a exasperated sigh. Seth noticed I was distracted and I believe I saw a smugness expression on Seth's face as I watched Simon, it didn't help this.

'He's probably mentally exhausted with the questions that Carlisle attacked him with' Seth added on, I tilted my head slightly in confusion at the statement.

'Carlisle was curious how this can be...maybe find answers but it's as confusing as ever.' Seth explained, a low growl escaped through my chest unexplainable. Seth took a step away from me in shock but soon find that I didn't mean to, he let out a wolfy laugh.

'Imprint thingsssss' he sang in his mind, I looked to him with my teeth bared playfully. He let a shrug roll out of his heavy shoulders but suddenly froze as he saw Simon look in our direction, I followed his gaze to meet his beautiful dark gold eyes.

I felt my heart beat stop as I saw his smile, it was different but it suited him. His lips raised in a corner as the other side stayed still, I hated how I couldn't despise him...why can't I? I growled in frustration and that made him decide to come over to the sound.

I panicked inside, my eyes glancing every direction for a route to escape. That definitely earned a light whine from Seth, he could definitely feel my anxiety rising.

I decided to turn and shoot off towards LaPush, my paws basically took in charge and dodged my fallen logs and trees that decided to litter in my way.

'Leah!! Come back!!' Seth yelled through the mental space but I couldn't bother turning back, I let a growl in reply.

Maybe Sam and the guys can explain more of this imprinting bullshit.
