Pssst, wakey wakey sleepy head. It's Friday, and I plan on going to school early to help Mrs Lenderson with her enrollment papers!🙌😇

I drank my orange juice while waiting for a reply, all the while the only sound that bounced off the walls were the sizzling of oil and kitchen utensils, grinding against the fryer.

Dad works as a real estate agent in Seattle while mums a nurse in Forks.

"So hows everyone this morning?" Dad asked.

I shrugged. "Pretty good. I'm going to school really early."

"Bright eyes and bushy tailed I see." Dad took a sit after kissing mums cheeks.

"Yessireee." I sang.

I felt my phone my vibrate, I glanced down at the screen and swiped it across.

From:Seth

I'm up, I'm up. Geez, your such a geek about school. 😂😸 Be like me and act cool😎.

I snicker and shook my head before my hands went back to typing.

To: Seth

Dude, if EVERYONE acted like you, we might as well just call La Push High, Lame Push High. Lol 😂😂 Geddit? If you don't we can't be besties no more.

"So Melody, how do you feel about your cousin living with us now that you've slept on it?" Mum asked, placing a plate of bacon and pancakes.

I grabbed the maple syrup and shrugged.

"Okay, I guess. Will try to put my biased opinion aside. Hopefully we'll get along."

Melissa plopped in her chair, looking extra with her white small top, grey jacket and black jeans. Where she gets it from is beyond me.

After swathering my syrup all over the pancake and passed it over to Melissa.

I felt my pocket vibrate and I swiped my screen with my pinky since my fingers were sticky.

From: Seth

Copy. I'm not lame! 'Sides, between the two of us, if I'm the and funny one, than who do you thinks the lame one.😂😂😂😝

My cheeks turn red before I let out a small laugh that I usually chuckle out when I says something that I can't top off. It's usually my 'haha very funny...ass' chuckle.

To: Seth.

Haha, very funny doofus. I'll seriously make you pay for rendering me speechless!

(Time skip)

Riinnng!!

I sighed in relief and quickly scrambled out of my Biology class before Mr Landon could further the topic of sexual reproduction.

I shivered back at the thought.
Is it necessary for us to learn about that on the first week of school?? At this pace he'll chase half the entire class away.

I sighed in relief when I saw Seth and the gang. Seeing my flushed face Seth gave me a concerned and confused look with his chocolate brown eyes while Embry, Jacob, Quil, and Leah snickered  with a knowing look.

"Don't worry Mel, we all go through that process with Mr Landon." Chuckled Jacob as he placed a hand on my shoulder.

I shrugged it off with a scoff and a slight pout, "No...it's not that, it's just that he OVER explains it entirely. And and and it's awkward and argh."

They all laugh in response and I pout.

After school I walk with Seth home as I usually have been for most of my life in school.

Me and Seth are not really close neighbors we live approximately 15 houses away from each other.

How I know exactly? It's simple I've been walking down his street for 14 years of my life.

"Oh, you should have seen his face when Couch Tyler scolded him." Seth said with satisfied smile. Since he was describing his arch nemesis Alex in PE.

"Well it must be satisfying for you. I'm just grateful Ms Queen Bee is not in school for our first week."

"What are you gonna do for next week?" He asked curious to know my plan.

I looked up at him with a cheeky grin, "Oh you'll see, " I chirped.

"Well hopefully it's not illegal."

My jaw drops, "What do you take me for. A criminal?" I playfully scowl.

He thinks for a while weighing the option, I laugh and gave him a light punch.

"How can you even think that! I do not look like a criminal."

"I didn't think that!" He protest but with a slight smile.

"Well you didn't say no."

"Well when you're hindering Melody Black from achieving her goals then you have a death wish."

"True dat." I smiled flamboyantly.

After a few seconds of silence he spoke with a more serious tone.

"So what's really going on?"

I averted my gaze from his and look around to the green tree that surrounded us, "I don't know what your talking about."

I could feel his blank stare.

"Seriously. That card? Tell me the truth I've know you since we were toddlers there is nothing you can hide from me. You've been spacing out a few times."

"Well." I begin with a small voice, "Remember when I told you my uncle died? Well he had a daughter. And that daughter is living with us, her names Kristina." I explain and finally meet his gaze.

"So? Come on, maybe you need her just like she needs you, like she needs a family."

"W-well of course I'm sympathetic. Honestly I'm a good guy here, I just-I'm not comfortable with her moving here because she'll be more depressed I mean your dad dies and you move to this new family you've never heard of. It has to be...I don't know, awkward?"

Seth grins earning an annoyed glare from me, "Sorry, it's just that you don't have to get fussed up about this whole situation. Think of it in a more positive way, you have a sister who's your exact age. Who can relate to you in most issues and maybe you'll create a special bond with her. Plus she's moving here and although it's hard for her she'll have you."

Seth smiled down at me while explaining. I sighed and slowed down my pace.

"I suppose so. You know I think I should change your name to Guru Seth if your gonna give me advise like a professional."

"About time you start appreciating me for my amazingness." He furrowed his eyebrows as he said the last word. "Is that even a word? Amazingness?"

I laugh. "You're such dork."

He grinned down at me. "Only for you m'lady."
