“What are you doing here?” The last place he ever expected to see Leah was here. At least, voluntarily. Emily wasn’t here, so she clearly wasn’t here to see her cousin, and it wasn’t as though Leah had been alone with him since everything had happened. Not even when they were in the same pack. He had always patrolled with someone else, never with her. That had been on purpose, so that he wouldn’t hurt her further. Despite the drama of it all, it had been a huge weight lifted when she’d left his pack for Jacob’s. Of course, that didn’t factor in this encounter in anyway. “Did something happen?”
Leah would have lied if she said that she enjoyed the long, languid trudge from where she left. Seth was out with friends, her mother was spending dinner with Charlie, and her? She was spending the night alone, lost in her own thoughts. Her feet carried her far, they always could. Whether in a crisis or in a trance such as now. Hoping to walk the reservation, an all too familiar voice snapped her into attention. An old habit, one would suppose. Her feet brought her to him. Her old home.
“...No, nothing. Everyone’s fine. Fine.”
“I was walking the reservation. I didn’t realize I went this far.”
