A/N: just to let people know I'm only transfering this from ff.net, if someone wants to take this story on they're more than welcome just message me :)
We were walking along First Beach when the guys decided to go cliff diving. I chose to just sit and watch.
I heard a rustling behind me and jumped up. Another guy stepped out.
'Relax Lyssa it's only Embry' Paul smirked while Sam and the other guy laughed at my shocked face.
'That's not Embry, you're sure it not someone else?' The Embry I knew was scrawny, shy and cute in a nerdy way. This guy was unbelievable good looking. When I got a proper look at him my jaw hit the ground. It actually was Embry! He took a few unsure steps towards me.
'Hey Lyssa' he wouldn't meet my gaze and the way he shuffled around with nerves confirmed Paul's statement.
'EMBRRY!' I screamed and hugged him. He returned the hug and picked me up. 'You cut your hair! I thought I got you to swear that ye wouldn't cut it but anyway how the hell did you get so big! What the fuck are they feeding you?'
Sam and the others were laughing the entire time. Embry just got redder and redder. Finally I took a breath. 'Besides that how you doing?' Embry shook his head at me. He slung his arm across my shoulder and laughed.
'Same old Lyssa.' He said.
'Yep' I retorted popping the p. 'And don't you forget it.'
'Hey Paul.' He turned with a what-the-hell's-wrong-with-you-now look. 'Who's that?' I jerked my chin towards the couple watching.
'Just Jacob and the Chief Swan's daughter.'
'As in Bella Swan?' he nodded his head. 'I'm gonna sat hi.' I jogged over and heard Bella and Jacob's conversation.
'We leave the showing off to Sam and his disciples' Does Jacob really hate them that much? Jared had said they didn't hang out with each other that much anymore but I didn't think Jake would hate them for it.
'You got some kinda beef with them or something?' Bella asked curious. Still Bella I see.
'I don't know. They just think they run this place. Embry used to call them hall monitors on steroids.' He said watching them. 'Now look at him.'
'That's Embry?' Bella sounded shocked. Oh yeah Sam had mentioned they were getting close. I was nearer to them now and Jacob saw me.
'Yeah' Jacob sounded so broken. It was as if someone had stolen his best friend, which I guess when you think about it Sam had.
'What happened to him?'
'He missed some school and suddenly he started following Sam around like a little lost puppy' Jakes voice had gone all husky. 'Same thing happened with Paul and Jared. Sam keeps giving me this look, like he's waiting for me or something.' Jake looked so scared, what had my cuz done to make him so fearful? 'It's kinda starting to freak me out.'
'Well you should just avoid him.' Ha! Have you seen the size of the rez?
'Curious as always Bella.' I smiled 'Nice to see that hasn't changed.' Bella looked at me like what-the-fuck?
'Alyssa Uley?' she asked her tone disbelieving.
'The one and only' I leaned up against her old rust bucket of a Chevy truck. 'But I've taken on my Dad's name instead.'
'Oh yeah, sorry 'bout your' I cut her off.
'Bella you weren't the drunk driver who ran her over, there's nothing to apologise for. So onto lighter things what the hell is in the back of your truck?' Jacob smiled and I looked up at him straight in the eye, which was a good bit up from my eye level. 'Seriously what are they feeding ye?'
They both watched me wary.
'I'm not Sam guys. I'm still the same Lyssa as when I left for Ireland.' I turned to see what they were watching. Of course! It was Sam! Show-off.
"So what's under the tarp?'
'Our motorbikes.' Jacob said more relaxed.
'Can I see?'
'We're heading to the lakes to try them out. Wanna join?' I scrunched my lips together and furrowed my eyebrows as if in deep thought.
'Sure.' Jacob broke out his what I called it million dollar smile. Seriously it's hard to be around this kid and not smile!
