Complicated

Chapter 04:

Leah POV

“Leah what are you doing up so early?” Mom asked as I ran downstairs.

“Going for a run mom.” Please don’t ask any questions.

“Leah could we talk first?”

Shit.

“Sure mom. What do you want to talk about?”

“I think you know.”

“What do you want me to do about it? You know how imprinting works. Isn’t that what you and dad always said when Sam left me for my damn cousin? It wasn’t voluntary. It was inevitable?”

“Leah this is Charlie’s daughter we are talking about. This is her boyfriend. You have to handle this… You can’t just…”

“What mom? I can’t what? If your boyfriend’s daughter wasn’t involved in this you wouldn’t give a damn right?”

“That’s not true. And I’m not saying you shouldn’t be with him. I’m just saying that this is a delicate situation.”

“So was my fiancée leaving me for my best friend and cousin. But dad didn’t seem to give a shit about that. Did he? He said for me to move on.”

“I knew nothing about that at the time Leah.”

“Yeah but when he died you knew about it. And you forgave Sam. You said you understood and I should too. Now you don’t understand me going after my imprint?”

“But, honey, Bella and Matt aren’t a part of this world. I’m not saying you shouldn’t go after him. But if it’s meant to be, and according to the imprint it is, it will happen naturally. I don’t want there to be drama. Let’s say Matt does break up with Bella to be with you. Charlie is going to flip when she starts going out with Paul, and you know that will happen. And then his possible step daughter is going out with his daughter’s ex?”

Wait a minute.

“What do you mean step daughter?”

“Charlie and I… things aren’t there yet but one day…”

“Oh Jesus. You don’t want me to go after my imprint because it would upset your boyfriend?!”

“No! Dammit Leah, stop putting words in my mouth! All I’m saying is that this situation is complicated. It’s not as easy as saying Bella you get Paul and Leah gets Matt and let’s all live happily ever after. Feelings are going to be hurt.”

“Yeah and you would rather they be mine.” I was so tired of this shit.

“No I don’t. Have you thought about Matt hurting you? You know he doesn’t live here. Charlie says he is a surefire future player in the NFL. He could wind up anywhere. Have you thought about any of this or are you thinking with anything besides your hormones?”

Oh hell no. She did not go there. “Speaking of hormones Dad’s been dead barely a year and you are already talking about marriage? Sounds like I come by it honestly.”

“Leah!”

“I’m out of here. Nice having this talk mom.”

I slammed the door on the way out. Why does everybody want everybody else to be happy? Paul and I are supposed to be miserable, is that it? Fuck that. I know damn well Paul isn’t backing off and neither am I. It was time to get a workout in.

Matt POV

Damn my head still hurt. But I had to do this. The only way I could get out of summer conditioning to come to Bella’s dad is to promise coach I would keep up with my program. The weight room at Forks High isn’t quite on par with the UW’s weight room. But it had all the essentials I would need to get the job done.

I turned on the radio and popped in my favorite workout music. 80s rock. I jumped roped to warm up and got on the bench press. I started my set.

“Need a spot?”

“Holy shit! Where the hell did you come from?” Leah Clearwater was standing over me. In a tight dark blue sports bra and tight, tiny spandex shorts. God her legs went forever.

“I come here all the time to work out. You left the door unlocked.”

“You scared the hell out of me.” I told her.

“Why? I told you I would be seeing you again. You remember what I told you to think about the next time you saw me?”

I swallowed hard. “Yes…”

“Are you thinking about it now?” She smiled down at me. “Oh it looks like you are.” She grinned at me.

“Leah I really need to work out.”

“No problem. I need to get my workout in too. I was just checking to see if you needed a spot. If you have any problems grunt and I will come… help you.”

“Uh, I think I got it. Thanks.”

I did my sets as best I could. I sat up and saw Leah doing arm curls watching herself in the mirror. She noticed me looking.

“Like what you see?”

“Uh, you have great uh form?”

“You have no idea.”

I needed to concentrate. Maybe I should go running. But running in my current state probably wasn’t the best idea.

I went to the incline bench. Probably not the best idea. Sitting up in this position I could see her clearly. Ahh crap she is going to the Squat station.

“Matt? When you are done could you give me a spot over here? Please? I’ve never tried this weight before and I don’t want to hurt myself.”

“Oh, uhm. Okay, I guess?”

I finished my set and walked over to her. This was a bad idea.

“So how do you like to be spotted?”

“Just put your hands on my hips and make sure I don’t fall.” She said.

Great. Oh well. I’m just being nice. I mean it is gym etiquette. Sure.

I placed my hands on her hips and instantly noticed something was different.

“Hey Leah are you sick?”

“Do I look sick? She asked without turning around.

“No, it’s just you’re not really sweating and you feel like you are burning up.”

“Oh that. I uh, tend to run hot.”

Yeah no shit. She began her set and I looked straight ahead avoiding seeing her ass go down into a squat position. Unfortunately that meant seeing her chest pressed out as her back curved. I damn near jumped back when her ass backed up against my dick. She was apparently in favor of doing very slow squats.

“Uh, you don’t seem to be having a hard time with this weight.” I said backing up a little so her ass wasn’t rubbing directly against my cock. My very attentive cock.

“You seem to be having a problem with it though.” She said smiling at me.

“Uh yeah.” I swear I will never look at a squat rack the same way again.

“Listen Leah I really need to get some arm curls in and the rest of my routine. If you think you are good over here, I’m going to get back to work.”

“Sure you really want to take your hands off of me?”

No.

“Leah we have had this talk.”

“I don’t remember us having this talk. All I remember is telling you in no uncertain terms that you are mine. But go ahead. I don’t want to stop your workout. I like watching you.”

I walked over to the dumbbells after tearing my hands from her waist and started hammer curls. She walked over to the bench press bench. I could see her behind me in the mirror. She laid on the bench and let her legs go to either side. She arched her back raising he beautiful breasts in the air and lowered the bar. I really wasn’t going to get any work done today. She was so lean but so strong at the same time. Perfect muscle tone. I really needed to get back to Bella. I really needed to get away from this crazy bitch. This incredibly hot, lean, sexy, beautiful bitch that I couldn’t tear my damn eyes from. I’m going to hell.

“Uh I have to go. You don’t need a spot right? Cause I really have to go.”

“No.”

“Okay, well don’t lift anything too heavy okay?”

She threw the bar above her chest where it landed on the bar handles. Damn. She must have had 180 pounds on there.

“I meant, no you can’t go.”

She was walking towards me.

“Uh, I kinda of need to run. You know sprints. And then I have to get back to Bella. She’s waiting on me. I think she wants to…” Holy shit it was like she was stalking towards me. She moved so gracefully. I am so going to hell.

She pushed me up against a wall with one hand. Damn she is stronger than she looks. Her other hand started rubbing my crotch through my shorts.

“I didn’t say you could go. And I told you that you belong to me.”

“Leah I really have to get to my girlfriend…” I whispered with my eyes closed. I couldn’t look into her eyes or I would be lost. “And you rubbing me like that probably isn’t appropriate.”

“You are MINE.”

Holy shit. Did she just growl? Why did I suddenly want her to bite me so bad? What the hell?

“But I will let you go to Bella for now. I will see you again soon. I’m never far away.” I felt her hand move away and knew I had to get out of here. If not I never would.

I turned and half ran out of the building. I had to get to Bella. This shit was strange. I have had women be direct with me before but I have never had a reaction like I was having to her. Something was wrong.

BPOV

Matt had gone to Forks High to work out, so I decided to get some cleaning done. I still couldn’t get over my reaction to Paul yesterday. What the hell was wrong with me? I have a perfect boyfriend and he is great and cute and nice to me. And here I am acting like a whore around a guy I met three days ago. This wasn’t me.

After the house was clean I decided to pass the time upstairs. I took a shower. As I was washing myself I grazed my clit and gasped. Well nobody was home. Why not? I started thinking about Matt. How he holds me. How he feels when he enters inside me. How he looks all sweaty after sex with his messed wavy hair and then I looked at him in my mind and saw… Paul. Fuck!

I was so turned on but I would be damned if I was going to get myself off to him. Shit! Annoyed I stomped out of the bathroom and put some clothes on. Torn blue jeans and a tight Tee that Matt likes. I didn’t figure he would be home for a while yet so I checked the kitchen pantry. No surprise it was nearly empty. I took the money Charlie kept in the food money drawer and headed to the grocery store.

I was half way done with my shopping when I felt him. I don’t know how or why but I knew Paul was there. I turned around and saw him leaning against a shelf with that gorgeous smile on his face. His arms were crossed like he expected me to turn around and was waiting patiently for me.

“What the hell do you want? Come to molest me in public?”

“Ahh c’mon Swan. Its only molesting if the other party minds. You didn’t mind.”

“Yes I did.”

“Then why hasn’t your boyfriend come to try to kick my ass?”

“I didn’t tell him. He doesn’t need to know what an asshole you are.” Oh shit he walked closer. Dammit.

“Really? How about I tell him? I think he deserves to know the reaction you have to me. Are you cold?”

“No why?”

“Either your nipples are always hard or I guess you save that for me.”

Damn you traitorous body!

“Why won’t you leave me alone?” I whispered.

“I told you. You belong to me.” Shit he started rubbing my cheek again. I would not lean into his hand!

“I am with Matt. I love Matt. He is perfect. You are just an asshole. A pushy, arrogant, cocky asshole.”

“How do you think Matt would feel about you lying to him about me being there yesterday?”

“Keep him out of this.”

“You’re the one who keeps bringing him up. I would love for us to forget him.” He smiled at me. At least he wasn’t whispering.

“Or maybe I should tell him?”

“No!”

“Why not Swan? Why shouldn’t I? I bet he would be pretty mad to know you lied to him about me being in your living room yesterday.”

“You wouldn’t do that. Nothing happened. He trusts me.”

“If you have nothing to worry about, why is your heart racing?”

He had me backed up against a shelf. Where the hell were other people? Doesn’t anybody shop in this fucking store?

I closed my eyes. I could feel his breath on my face. He smelled so fucking good.

“I want you to admit you want me Bella.”

“Fine.” I have had enough of this shit. “You want to hear that I think you are incredibly hot? That you get me turned on? Fine Paul you do. But you aren’t Matt. He loves me. All you apparently want to do is fuck me. I’m not sure what your fucking game is but I am not playing anymore.”

“Easy Swan. I just want to know you.” He said raising his hands.

“How? By rubbing against me? By talking to me like I’m a fucking slut? Get the fuck out of here Paul. You bother me one more time and I will have Charlie put a fucking restraining order on you. And stay the fuck away from Matt!” He turned without a word and walked out. I waited 5 minutes and went to check out. On my way out I looked around and I couldn’t see him. I drove Matt’s car home. He said he would be running home. We arrived at the same time.

I took one look at him and every sexual feeling I have had for the past two days came back at full force. From the look on his face, he was feeling the same. I walked up to him and kissed him. He kissed me back. Then I felt myself picked up and I was being carried up the stairs.

Leah POV

“Well that certainly worked out LaHote. We got them both worked up. She threatened you with a restraining order. He practically ran out of the weight room to get away from me. And we got them both so worked up they are fucking the hell out of each other right now while we listen.”

“So the plan didn’t go as smoothly as I thought it would.” He said. He was staring at Bella’s window wiht a look of fury on his face. I knew what he was feeling. Standing outside, listenting to my mate make what sounded like frenzied love… Holy shit did they just break the bed? What the fuck?… I came to a realization I hated to admit.

“Sam was right.”

“What was that Leah? I could have sworn you said…”

“I did Paul. We have to get to know them. No matter how much we want to jump them we can’t just rely on sex to get them. They will resent us. Bella proved that today. And if I Matt wasn’t as nice as he was he would have done the same to me. We have to get to know them.”

“And how do we do that if they are around each other all the time?”

“We have to tell them the truth.”

“They are not ready for that.”

“Neither were we. Come on. We need to go talk to Sam.”

BPOV

After what I considered animalistic sex we laid in each other’s arms. Something wasn’t right.

“Baby? Where did you go? Just now.”

“What are you talking about Bella?”

“It didn’t seem like you were here.”

“Uh who do you think was just eating y…”

“Thats not what I meant. It just didn’t seem we were emotinoally connected. Did you feel that?”

“Maybe. You mean it was like we were fucking and not making love?”

“Exactly.”

“Babe I think it’s this place. I mean everywhere we turn we have those Quileutes following us.”

“Whose following you? Is it Paul?” I asked. Please no. Anything but that.

“Actually everytime I turn around Leah is there.”

Paul didn’t seem so bad now. I wish it was Paul following him.

“When the fuck did you see Leah?”

“Uh today. She works out at Forks High School apparently.”

“The fuck she does! She never even went to Forks! You are the only one with permission to use that place! Why didn’t you tell me?!” What the hell!

“Uh we kinda came straight up here when I got back. I havent really had a chance…”

“She was there before you came home? Is that why you were…”

“NO!”

We laid in silence for a few minutes. I was fuming. At Paul. At Leah. I wasn’t thrilled with Matt right now either.

“Bella?”

“Yes?” I whispered.

“Things have been strange since we got here. I think we should leave. At least for a few weeks. Why don’t you tell Charlie that a friend of mine in Texas died and we need to go to my parents for a few weeks.”

“Matt thats awful! What if one of your friends really did die? You would feel horrible!”

“No, no I don’t think I would. Right now I may actually kill one myself if I thought it could get me out of here.”

Damn. I guess it has been getting to him. Getting away from Paul wouldn’t be a bad idea either. Getting Matt away from Leah was souding real fucking good.

“Let’s pack. I will call Charlie and tell him right before we leave. We will say a friend of yours is sick.”

An hour later we were packed and I was about to get on the phone to call the airport. The phone rang before I could pick it up.

“Hello?”

“Bella this is Sam Uley.” Oh shit.

“Yes Sam?” I put the phone on speaker so Matt could hear as well.

“Bella, I know some crazy things are going on. I know you and Matt are probably having some weird feelings. Especially in regard to Paul and Leah. They came to me today and expressed that they are sorry for how they have behaved. They want to explain. I will explain everything. If you and Matt will come to my house, everything will be explained. These weird feelings will make sense. Please Bella.”

I looked at Matt. He shrugged his shoulders and then nodded yes.

“We will be there in an hour Sam.”
