The Life of Leah Clearwater (Book Two)

Chapter 39 - Nightmare

Summer is arriving, the season I mean, two weeks have passed, I've been quiet, I haven't spoken to anyone about Kimi saying I was the one Vladimir had been searching for, I'm trying not to stress anyone out. Stefan has moved into Fred's old place, he's enjoying the seclusion, he texts me daily and the Denalis have met him, he's thinking of returning to Alaska with them, I see him every two days, Fred has moved in with me, strange having company. Eleazar keeps looking at me, he knows something is wrong, so does Garrett, I need hypnotising, my mind needs to be at ease.
Fred is finishing something up in Port Angeles, I'm heading out to the Cullen's, Tanya Kate etc are there, Leah is doing okay but in less than two weeks he will be here.
I reach the door and almost have second thoughts, I slap myself lightly and knock on the door.

"Doors open Thunder" Emmett yells.

"Button it hulk." I yell back, opening the door I walk up the stairs.

Edward laughs."Oh excuse me The Perfect Storm?" Emmett asks, and Jasper smirks. "Oh dear." Esme said, and smiled.

"Yes I'm the perfect storm, I don't walk around saying smash," I wink, "hey everyone." I smile.

Renesmee bounces over, "Hi there." Bella smiled, "Hello Ara. How are you?" Carlisle smiled, and then stepped out taking a phone call. "How have you been dear?" Esme hugged Ara.

"Hey Renesmee," I hug her, "ah hello Bella, distracted but okay thanks," I hug Esme back, "good thanks." Jasper knows I'm lying, oh dear!

Esme touched Ara's arm, "Ara, we have Edward who can hear people's thoughts. Alice who has visions, and Jasper who senses emotions. Please relax, nobody is looking anymore."

"I can't relax, what Kimi said is eating away at me, I haven't hunted, instead I've been drinking a few litres of coffee a day and munching cookies like they're going out of fashion." I sit down and rest my chin on my hand.

Rose walked out with several blood bags, "Eat up, and now. You have to relax." Alice smiled, "She's not coming around again." I think he's given up here." Carlisle walked back out, and headed outside.

I take one, looking at it makes me feel nauseated, "Just this one, I've been working my backside off, taking as many shifts as I can get, been spending time with Leah," I let the contents of the bag slide down my throat, half slides down but my body refuses the other half, heading for the kitchen sink it comes back up, "damn it, I want to function, I'll try again soon." I smile weakly holding onto the sink.

Esme walked over, rubbing her back, "Sweetheart. Please you have to calm down." Carlisle lost his temper, and knocked a tree over. The thud caused everyone to startle.

"I'm trying," I spin round nearly falling over, "he's in a bad mood." I slowly make my way outside, "Carlisle?" I call his name nervously.

He turned around looking at Ara, like he'd been given horrible news. "Lucas, he's done an ultrasound. Sebastian is roughly six pounds and about twenty inches long. He's still not dropped. Leah is refusing to be induced."

"I'll go talk to her, see if I can try change her mind, if we offer a home birth, she might say yes,." I rub Carlisle's back.

He shook his head, "No she won't. Lucas tried. She said herself, he's not ready. He's not as aggressive. He's more at ease. Rocking a lot, sometimes sleeping in the chair as well.

"He's a step ahead," sighing, "I will tonight and see if I can try, I know we are all concerned about her." Its the best offer I could give in my stupid state.

Carlisle hugged her, "If we can get her to thirty six, or thirty eight weeks; then she's not so nervous."

"I've a gut feeling he will be here by May 29th, at the latest." I hug him lightly.
