Someone once said that nothing hurts more than watching the one you love fall in love with someone else; and Y/N was pretty sure that they were right, it hurt like hell to watch the person you love, love someone else. But as she watched Derek start feeling something for Jennifer she moved out of the way, because her bother once told her that 'if he turely loved you then he wouldn't start loving her'. At the time she thought he was being harsh but now she sees how wise her baby brother is.
Now Y/N was still in this small town and couldn't get away from Derek or Jennifer. Every time she saw the two of them together it was like a knife to the gut. It didn't take her long to pack up her stuff and move out of town. She honestly hated he thought of running away because she couldn't stand the thought of her ex-boyfriend with another woman, but she refused to look at it like that; she was looking at it as a fresh start.

The drive to Forks didn't seem as long as Y/N remembered, but then again she was eager to get there she barley went below the speed limit the entire drive. The further she was from Beacon Hills the more free she felt.
It had been a while since she'd been to Forks, the last time she remembers being here was her the summer before her freshman year of college, almost six years ago. So when she pulled into town and noticed that not much had changed she laughed, small town life never changed much.
Pulling up to the small cabin on the reservation she felt nervous, it had been nearly six year, a lot can happen in six years but Y/N wasn't going to let a bunch of 'what ifs' ruin her fresh start. But she couldn't help but sit in her car for a little longer remenising on memories from the past.
Walking up to the door had been the easy part, actually knocking and walking into these peoples lives was another thing. But she did it anyway, she knocked on the door and waited. When the door did open she was met with her child hood playmate, her best friend in this little run down town, Jacob Black. He looked different from the last time she'd seen him, more buff and serious, like he'd seen things that no one should; but then again who hasn't.
"Can I help you?" His question pulled at her heart, he obviously didn't recognize her.
"Um... yeah. It's Y/N. Y/N Stilinski." She saw his eyes widen before she was being pulled into a bone crushing hug.
"Oh my god. It's been too long." Jacob pulled away and ushered her inside taking them out of the perpetual Forks rain. "So what brings you back to Forks?"
Y/N looked down at her shoes and started messing with a lose thread in her sweater, it's always been a habit of hers when she thought what she had to say was going to be brushed away. She didn't know how Jacob or his father would react to her asking but she never knew until she tried.
"I was wondering if I could stay here for a couple of days, until I could get my feet on the ground?" She asked looking anywhere but at Jacob until she heard him chuckle.
"Y/N, calm down. You can stay here as long as you need. You're practically family."

The next couple of weeks flew by with Y/N trying to find a job and an apartment, and she found out the living with Jaocb was like having a sleep over every night. They had six years to make up for but their friendship was stronger than ever.
"So wait you mean to tell me than you've never been surfing?" Y/N couldn't help but laugh along with Jacob as they walked along the reservation's coast line. They'd been there for a couple of hours, soaking up the only sunny day forecasted for that month.
"Nope. Never had the time. I'd always be too busy."
"That's just sad." That earned Jacob a smack upside the head. "OK, next clear day I'm taking you."
