My Brother's Girl- Chapter 10

Leah Clearwater

Leah sat in her room after Vasilisa left. She hadn't gotten her to speak at all. Leah wanted to think Vasilisa would soon realize she could trust Leah and would speak, but she knew better. While Leah was hurt by Sam, Vasilisa was crushed. When Sam disappeared Vasilisa didn't know what to do with herself. She always thought it was because she did something wrong, but Leah told her otherwise. Leah chuckled at the memory of when Vasilisa broke her right arm for the first time. It was when Emily was attacked by that bear and put in the hospital.

Flashback

Leah had been watching Vasilisa for Joshua when he went to work even though the 10 year old claimed she was old enough to watch herself. Leah agreed with her and explained that she was going to hang out with her not watch.

"Lee Lee, can we go play in the woods?" Vasilisa asked, her black curls bouncing around her shoulders. Leah had always taken Vasilisa out to play in the woods. And Vasilisa loved it.

'"Sure go get your shoes on and we'll go. But Vasa please don't argue when I say it is time to go. Remember last time? Your brother had to come and get you. Well let's not get that far."

"Alright Lee" Vasilisa instantly saddened at the mention of her brother. Sam was not coming to get this time it would be Joshua and it crushed her. Leah and Vasilisa walked out into the woods and Vasilisa instantly ran out to go play. Leah stayed behind watching Vasa. As she played. It only came to Leah's attention when she heard hurt cries filled with pain, that's when she realized her eyes were up in the sky. Leah's head snapped toward the cries and what she saw was horrible. Vasilisa was on the ground under a tree, she was holding her right arm and it was already starting to swell and turn black and blue. Vasilisa screamed louder and louder, no one was at the Clearwater's house there was no one at all to help Leah, no one at all.

"What happened?" Leah turned to find Jared Cameron one of Sam's friends. Leah was actually happy to see him. "This is Sam's little sister?"nodded and Vasilisa's sobs became louder. You could tell there was a lot of pain.

"I don't know what happened. Can you lift her for me? We have to get her to the hospital." Jared nodded and gently lifted Vasilisa. He looked at her and Leah remembered Vasilisa once before…before this whole thing with Sam. Vasa even already had a nickname for him….Jear-Bear.

"Jear-Bear?" Her voice was a whimper Jared smiled glad she remembered him.

"Yes it's me little V. What happened?" he asked her, Vasilisa laid her head on his chest and cradled her arm. Her beautiful face was pain filled and tears streaked.

"I-I was climbing that tree. I fell, I was trying t-to b-be l-like S-Sammy." Leah narrowed her eyes

"Alright, it's going to be ok V. We are going to take you to the hospital." Jared started walking through the woods care-full not to bump Vasilisa's arm. Leah followed regretting letting Vasilisa out of her sight. Of course this whole thing was her fault. When they got to the hospital Jared rushed in. Vasilisa was wailing again, her face was pale and Leah was only afraid of one thing….a concussion. Of course no one saw so she might not of hit her head. Leah followed Jared as he burst into a room with a wailing Vasilisa in his arms. Leah looked around the room, she didn't want Vasilisa in here at all. Leah's mum was on the right side of the hospital bed. Paul Lahote was on the other side of the room, staring at the sobbing girl in Jared's arms. Kneeling next to the left side of the hospital bed was Sam Uley and lying on the hospital bed, gripping Sam's hand Emily Young. Everyone had their eyes on Vasilisa, Leah glanced at Sam his eyes were wide with sorrow and fear. Vasilisa slowly lifted her head. She met Sam's eyes and instantly thrashed in Jared's arms, trying to get to Sam.

"Sammy! Sammy please help me." She cried, Sam looked pained as Jared held her tighter making sure her arm doesn't move. Leah watched as the little girl moved in Jared's arms trying desperately to get to her older brother. It was heartbreaking to watch. Sue tried to check out her arm, but Vasi refused. "Sammy!" She demanded pointing to her brother with her good arm. Finally Sam cracked and moved his back to Emily's hospital bed. Jared handed her over to him. Vasilisa instantly curled up against him. "It hurts Sammy."

"I know Lissa. Hold in there. Sure is going to check your arm. What happened Lissy?" Vasilisa looked down somewhat embarrassed

" I um, well Lee-lee told me she would take me out to play in the woods. I wanted to climb that big tree you used to climb. I wanted to be like you Sammy." Sam smiled at the end. Sue was busy checking her arm and Sam was districting her.

"Alright Lissa no more tree's for you. Please and when you asked me to climb a tree at home what did I tell you?" Vasilisa blushed a soft Rose color and Sam laughed. "It's ok Lissa. Did you hit your head?"

"No I landed on my arm though. I was half way up Sammy! And I then I slipped and fell, it hurt." Vasilisa explained. Sue finished her examination and looked up at Sam.

"She broke it in 3 different places. She defiantly needs surgery." Vasilisa whimpered, but Sam tightened his grip on her, stroking her soft Black curls soothingly.

"It's going to be alright Lissa. They are going to take good care of you." Vasilisa's nodded, but everyone around her could see she was scared.

"Sammy what are they going to do?" Vasilisa muttered into his chest. Sam looked up at Sue unsure of what to tell his little sister.

"They got to put you to sleep little V so they can fix your arm up. Is that cool with you?" Jared stepped up smiling kindly at Vasilisa. Vasilisa looked up at Sam as if to confirm, he nodded.

"Yeah it's alright with me. Is it alright with you Jear-Bear?" Everyone laughed even Sam, even Leah. Paul seemed to get a kick out of the nickname.

"Yeah it's alright with me. Don't go dreaming about any boys now I don't think your brother would like that." Vasilisa giggled and nodded her agreement.

"Alright Vasilisa here we go. Are you ready?" Vasilisa nodded and held out her good arm to Sue. Sam held Vasilisa as the needle was injected One minute later her eyes were droopy.

"I love you Sammy" than her eyes shut. Sam hugged her to him. Leah watched with tears in her eyes and they threatened to fall. .

"I love you to Lissa" Sam slowly got to his feet with Vasilisa bridle style. The medicine knocking her out completely.

"I'll show you wear you can lay her so the doctors can lay her so they can prep her for surgery." Leah followed Sue and Sam out of the room. Sam set the sleeping girl on the bed and kissed her forehead than turned to Sue.

"When she wakes up tell her I love her and she was so brave…tell her I am proud of her." Sue smiled and nodded, but Leah was outraged.,

"What the hell Sam? Your little 10 year old sister fell out of a tree broke her arm in three different places! And you're going to leave her again!"

"Please Leah you don't understand"

'Oh I understand Sam. You hurt me but you crushed that little girl. Do you even know what you put her through? She wakes up screaming, screaming for you! She spends nights at my house and what she mutters in her sleep is horrible. Most of the time it's 'Sammy doesn't love me anymore' or things like that.. Oh and do you know what you asked me the other day Sam? She came up to me the other day and asked 'Lee-Lee why did Sammy choose that Emily girl over me over me?" Sam flinched and Leah rounded over with him. "Who do you think you are Samuel Uley?" Leah was pissed no one was going to take advantage of Vasilisa like Sam.

"Leah that's enough the doctors have to get Vasilisa to surgery before the medicine wears off. Please if Vasilisa wakes up she's going to be in a lot of pain. You can argue and lecture Sam later. Please Leah think of Vasilisa." Her mother was almost begging her. Leah looked over to the hospital bed where Vasilisa lie. It was only an arm break but she was treating this as a death.

"Fine, but I want you to know that I'll never forgive you and if Vasilisa is smart she won't either." Then she walked out of the room
