The next few days were as hectic as it could get. Some memories came back but only small ones, of things, people or places. But none of the woman I saw in the hospital room, only the man and I as I aged thought the years. No tears were shed again as I helped Sam and Emily pack up my stuff. There were others that hung around to help but I ignored them all and lived in my room. I only saw Emily when she brought me food; it was the best I’ve ever eaten. Absolutely amazing! She said my stuff downstairs was packed and my father’s was too, his was being given to the goodwill and most of mine was travelling as we speak to La Push.

My new home, with my brother and his fiancée, I was glad I had someone but I still wish I had my dad. Memories came and went and I remembered almost everything but the woman, she was a constant in my dreams, but it looked like I needed something to unlock that.

The men that helped Emily, Sam and I took off after downstairs and my father’s room was done, my room was done on the third day after I was relaced from the hospital was a slight memory loss and dizziness’. The doctor said is it normal for things to come back to me once I had developed relationships with people.

Sam and I were as tight as you could get people that met only days ago. He was my brother, the only person left I was related to. He saved me and I will be forever thankful for that but sometimes I wish he didn’t call me back. I was almost there, with my father.

My room was done, the sun was shining and the birds were chirping. It was a good day, besides the fact I’m moving cross country to live with my half-brother and fiancée, I loved them. But I still sometimes wish. Wish I was with whoever that woman was and my father. The moving truck was already gone with my stuff in the back. Emily, Sam and I were going to fly from Florida to the sunny state of Washington, where the small native Indian tribe was located in La Push. Yay!

Aside from not remembering being on a plane ever in my life I was confident. Although during the take-off I saw an image of the woman again, his hair was a deep brown and he had warm green eyes, she looked catlike with pale skin and red lips. She was beautiful although this time that image stuck with me unlike the others. She looks almost real in my head, but I didn’t know where she was from in my memories. She looked sick and tired and drained. She looked almost dead.

Turns out I hate flying, Emily was sitting next to Sam who was sitting in the idle seat, and I was next to the window. I don’t think that helped really, taking off was easy, there was small turbulence but then going down was another thing. I was hyper velating and I had to wear one of those oxygen masks to gain my breathing back. Emily sat by my side the whole time and held my hand; she was being extremely nice about it and everything.

When I was finally fine to get off the plane Emily was still holding my hand for comfort. Sam had already went and got the carry on’s and my luggage with his. We were walking when I spotted him. He was with several other men, they all looked similar, and they could pass as brothers. His eyes were chocolate brown and he looked the youngest agmonst the group.

Feeling anxious I looked down, when we reached the group Emily decided to make introductions.

“Pepp,” a new nickname Emily gave me when it was just us. “Meet the guys, guys meet Pepper”

A chorus of ‘hey’s’ erupted from the group. 

“Hi” I said in a weak voice not looking up in case I saw him again. Thinking about that I blushed and the boys started chuckling. Sam took that moment to reappear.

“Well, let’s go?” he said as if annoyed. Then I looked up.

“Sam… uh, my foot leg hurts…” I said trying to be as quiet as possible, “can we get some uh, pills? Please?”

Sam started chuckling. “Sure, want me to carry you to the car?” he asked as if talking to a child.

“Only if it’s a piggy back ride” I said as if I was in fact a little kid. “Pwease!!” blinking my eyes, rapidly. Not in the weird way but almost in an innocent way, as I looked up at him from my lashes I heard laughing from Emily.

“Fine… “He said as if he was regretting it, he squatted and I jumped on his back with all my weight trying to be annoying as possible.

“Come on piggy,” I giggled as he stood up. “Don’t break your back old man!”

“Shush you or I’ll run into a sigh hanging from the ceiling” he said in a light voice. We were almost outside now, and I turned to see Emily and the guys trailing being with smirks on their faces.

“Hey guys you look like ants from up here” I said with heavy sarcasm, while that sent the boys into another fit of laughing. Emily put a hang to her mouth to stop from laughing but faint giggles were heard from her as the boys roared with laughter.

There were two cars to take everyone, one looked like a truck and I froze. As if he could feel me freeze Sam, put me on the ground and looked at me. “You okay ...” he asked his tone matching he worries in his brown eyes.

“I-i-i-I can’t go in that… please.” I begged looking at the smaller car that could hold four people; Emily came up to me and wrapped me in a hug.

“You are okay, you don’t have to. Jake can take you with him, Cant you Jake” she asked as she looked over to the guys.

The second tallest out of the group stepped forward and took my hand. “I’ll take you, don’t worry. It’s going to be okay” obviously awkward about upsetting me again, Jake rambled.

“Thanks,” Limping away from the big car that looked like a small truck, one similar to the car that hit me and took my dad’s life. Sat in the backseat with the door open. Emily took a seat next to me in the car with a determined look on her face.

“I want to go with Pepper, she needs me,” she said with such confidence it had me putting my head on her shoulder. “I don’t want to leave her.”  She looked at same as she spoke, his face changed from worry to annoyance.

“Fine, why don’t I take Pepper, Emily and Seth with me and Jake, Embry, Quill and Jared take my truck” I flinched as he mentioned a truck. Everyone made their ways to their designated cars, as Sam took the keys from Jake and gave him, his.

Emily sat next to me in the back; it was small so Seth had to sit in the front. I was happy at that as he could stop looking at me, even with my eyes closed I could feel his stare on me. He was the one I was avoiding before, with those deep brown eyes.

I opened my eyes and they were directly aligned with Seth’s. I felt the world spinning; I could feel everything in my give way as I stared in my beautiful eyes. I had never left anything like this. Happiness beyond comprehendible.
