Oh crap! If I didn’t come barging like that আপনি would have asked her to marry আপনি that night.
She paused and stared thoughtfully at me.
What made আপনি change your mind? If আপনি wanted to marry her, why did আপনি break up with her?
Can’t আপনি see, Leah? She would say yes in an instant.
So? Shouldn’t আপনি be jumping in happiness?
I sighed.
I felt like I never gave her a choice like I forced myself on her. If everything was normal between us, if we were both just plain simple humans, could she have noticed me? Would she প্রণয় me back?
Leah didn’t answer.
I just wanted her to be sure. I wanted her to know there’s so much আরো she could have than the simple life I could offer her. I wanted her to enjoy life, see the world. If she has seen and experienced everything and still decides she wants to be with me then I would truly know.
Don’t আপনি think there’s a possibility that she would choose to live without you? How would আপনি deal with it? What if she found some weird vampiric way out of this imprinting stuff? Can আপনি live with that?
I didn’t have an answer to the very worst fears that bugged me these past few months.
You hoped that she would come back to আপনি in the end, don't you?
There was never a night that I didn’t get down on my knees and prayed that she will.

Seth barged into my room, panting.
“What is it with you, Clearwaters? Can’t আপনি leave me alone?” I groaned.
“She’s back, Jake! Nessie’s back!”
I bolted upright from my bed.
“What are আপনি talking about?”
“I saw her over at Charlie’s. It’s her sem-break.” He looked like he would explode with happiness any মিনিট now.
My own হৃদয় pulsated with joy. I couldn’t help the huge grin from spreading on my face.
“Did he tell আপনি the whole news?” Leah drawled from the doorway. “Guess what? My little brother imprinted on Nessie’s college friend.” She made an annoyed face.
“That left আপনি and Embry….”
Leah smacked the back of his brother’s head before he could continue.
“Aw Leah. Can’t আপনি just be happy for me?” Seth complained as he rubbed the back of his head.
“I only pity the girl. আপনি almost licked her entire face.”
Seth rolled his eyes and turned to me. “You should meet her, Jake. She’s absolutely amazing. Nessie’s happy her secrets are all out the window. Jenny became really close to her in Dartmouth.”
“How long has Nessie been back?” I frowned it seemed I have missed on a lot of things.
“Just a দিন অথবা two but আপনি couldn’t stop this blabbermouth from spilling all the juicy details.” Lead said.
Nessie’s here for a দিন অথবা two and they only tell me now? What’s wrong with these people?!
“We don’t have to keep secrets from one other. We প্রণয় each other.” Seth said, all gooey-eyed.
“Get out.” Leah and I growled at the same time.
“Okay, okay. Geez! People could be so envious sometimes.” He ducked his head as Leah was about to তীক্ষ্নভাবে it, this time with my night lamp.
He was out the door in a flash. “I’ll be over at the Cullens. Nessie ব্যক্ত it’s alright for me to visit.” He called out from outside the house.
Lucky him.
Leah shook his head. Then she grinned hugely.
“Jennifer Rivers is a piece of work.” She laughed. “She would drive my brother crazy sooner অথবা later.
Then her expression became serious. “So, when are আপনি going to see her?”
I knew who she was referring to so I shook my head.
“What?! Do আপনি need my assistance? Do আপনি need me to drag আপনি over there?”
“Nope, Leah.”
She rolled her eyes in exasperation.
“She asked Seth about you.”
I leaned towards her.
“I think she missed আপনি a lot.”
I leaned closer, holding my breath.
“Interested, aren't we? Well, that’s all I’m telling.” With that she sauntered out of the room.
I collapsed on the বিছানা and groaned.
She paused and stared thoughtfully at me.
