Things have been awkward with my family since the weird confrontation with Jacob. To be honest, I miss my goofy, kind of annoying and overprotective brother. We say hi in the mornings, and exchange glances and nods but nothing more. Billy is hardly ever home, working. 

It's been a week and a half. It is Thursday, my second week of school. I have talked to the Cullen more. His name is Edward. Sorry, that's an understatement. We are best friends now. At least, I consider him to be my best friend.  I don't know how he feels, but I'm grateful to have somebody to laugh with at school now that I never smile or laugh at home. I sit with him at lunch, walk with him in the parking lot until it's time to go, I even call him sometimes afterschool. 

Billy and Jacob are genuinely worried about me, but not in the way I wish they would. They aren't worried about my safety, or about me myself, all they care about is how this might affect the rivalry between the vampires and werewolves. They've tried everything, folktales, legends, grounding, new rules (that I never follow) all in an attempt to distance me from the Cullens. 

I won't admit it to anybody, but I'm in a bit of a depression. I feel like the spark of confidence and light inside of me is dim. Even though I have Edward as a good best friend, it doesn't cover for the fact that I feel i've lost my family. My mind feels slow, and I feel detached. I feel as if, without Edward, I might be full on depressed. I know my problems don't amount to a lot of other peoples, and I'm sure this will pass.
