BRI POV

I grabbed the side of my face in shock and pain, damn that fucking hurt. As I glanced around I realized something, I saw Carlisle, Alice, Emmett, Rose, Leah, and Paul. It was real; Leah smacked me, my Lee. I saw Paul standing in front of Leah who was on the floor; he was shaking like a mad man and ready to phase.

"Lee-Lee?" I answered quietly; afraid if I spoke too loud this really would be a dream. Leah's head turned to me before she hopped up coming over, I grabbed her clinging to her and breaking down as I took in her scent. I was home; I had somehow survived.

"Lee-Lee." I sobbed into her shoulder grabbing her harder.

"Shh, its ok Bri I've got you, you're home, you're safe, and it's ok." She whispered softly rubbing my back. I groaned in pain my headache getting worse, I could hear everyone's thoughts and it was driving me crazy how does Edward deal with this shit.

"You get used to it." I jerked up looking at him at the same time realization hit his face and he looked at me.

"Bri." I quickly shook my head no. he looked at me oddly a look going through the room but no one said anything. I just clung to Leah sobbing; I couldn't believe I was really home. I felt an arm touch me and I jumped, I knew it was Paul, I knew I shouldn't be scared but I was. I pulled away trying to get closer to Leah.

"Paul we should all go."

"No, I just got her home."

"Paul she's terrified right now, just go I got this." Leah said in a desperate but agitated voice. Paul reluctantly dropped his hand from trying to touch me and left stopping at the door on his way out.

"I love you." I softly heard him say before he walked out. Now that they were all gone, the noise went down a great deal. Being downstairs it was much harder to hear them, all I had now being Leah's thoughts invading my brain.

PAUL POV

It has been a week since Bri has been back home and she just isn't the same. She's always scared, she really doesn't talk, she barely eats. The tough girl we all knew and love was dead. She's terrified of me; well all of us in general, the only person to be around her was Leah. She didn't even want me; and then there were the nightmares. Those were a whole other story, she woke up screaming almost every night, usually after Leah got her calmed down after the third night I would sneak in and lay with her. When I would she wouldn't have any bad dreams, but awake she wouldn't let me or anyone near her. The other day was horrible, we were all downstairs on the couch and all of a sudden Bri had a panic attack.

FLASHBACK

"I said LEAVE ME ALONE." Brianna screamed throwing her hands up. Emmett then went sailing across the room smacking into a wall. We all kind of gasped but Bri freaked out and backed into the couch damn near curling into a ball.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Bri was that." She immediately started shaking her head mumbling sorry as she ran off.
