That night we got back from patrol around 10:30pm, Paul and Jared and a few others were carrying on for a few more hours, but Sam said there was no need, the red head wouldn't return yet, not when she knew we were after her, and not when she knew Bella was protected by a family of vampires herself. The odds were that the red head was probably trying to figure out a plan to get around us, or even better for her, through us. Which meant us dyeing- Sam had assured me though, that she wouldn't get through us even if it was her biggest dream. Which meant she'd try and get around us, but then she had to get through the Cullen's too, which would be difficult as there was only one of her.
Mom was back, asleep on the couch with a box of chocolates on the table. She looked knackered and like she could do with a few more hours of good sleep. Leah and I tried to sneak through without waking her but the plan went to a fail. Mom woke up.
"Oh, oh, oh!" Mom cried looking frantic- then she looked from me, to Leah, to me, to Leah and burst out into tears.
Leah ran over to her. "Oh mom, what is it? What's the matter?" Leah asked of her in a panic, Leah was exhausted but she seemed to get this spark of energy to be brave and comfort mom. If it was me, however I wouldn't have asked 'what's the matter?' isn't it obvious? Dad's dead and her only two teenage children have both turned into werewolves through some connection of Quileute family blood and all she can do it sit back and watch her living nightmare day in- day out.
"Leah I missed you so much!" Mom wailed, surprising me, "Are you okay? And Seth- oh Seth, it's so terrible, I can't believe it's happened to you so soon. I knew the day was coming, but never so early in you're life!"
"Mom, were fine." Leah assured her, "and Seth loves the werewolf thing, his cool with it! Aren't you Seth?" she asked. I didn't answer, what was I supposed to say? But then Leah repeated [i]"aren't you Seth!"[/i][/font] and I took the hint.
"Yeah mom, it's cool- Jacob and Leah have been looking after me, but really please don't worry about me, or us. Were fine, we cope with these things- but you . . ." I started.
"Mom, you're having a breakdown, I really think you should stay with a friend right now, Charlie . . . or even Emily and Sam." Leah finished, almost exactly what I was going to say, just in different words.
"No, no don't be silly, im fine- honest. Now you two go off to bed, you've got school in the morning, and then patrol or whatever Sam has planned to keep you out at night and make you exhausted and probably be late for school, and then I really don't want to get moaned at by you're teachers Seth! They don't half go on and on. I'll be having words with Sam to make sure you're home by 9:30pm at the latest, 10:00pm if he asks nicely." Mom insisted.
I looked at Leah, and she looked at me. I was positive we both had that look of she-doesn't-know-what-she's-talking-about look on our faces.
Leah went and sat down by mom on the couch with a look of pure determination on her face, one look at Leah's face was all it took, every part of her every feature screamed 'no arguing' but then I remembered, mom could have that look on her face too; this could be a long . . . long . . . long night.
