I sighed as I stared at the morning sunrise. I was on my home-made balcony. It was up here that I could see everything. The misty fog lifted from the forest giving way to the rare sunlight that filtered through the leaves of the endless field of trees. I had stayed up here for hours.

My hair was tied up in a messy bun allowing ringlets to fall around my face swaying around gently in the chilly breeze that passed me by.

I shivered and pulled my leg towards my chest and rested my chin on my hand, my other leg hanging down the balcony I am sitting on lazily.

I hadn't left my room since Friday, after I came home and threw a coughing fit from crying my eyes out in the cold blistering rain of La Push.

I only went out for breakfast and dinner, mum is very general about family dinner and breakfast. Seth did visit, he came on Saturday morning and we watched a couple movies and read our books in silence until I drifted off into a deep slumber. He stayed by my side comforting me until late 5pm then he went home.

The next day he came over with a stack of funny movies, marshmallows, hot chocolate, a box of pizza, and a funny childhood home video by me and Seth on how to make the perfect mud pie. It was quite funny to watch.

He made me feel less shitty. He was my only saving light.

I heard the soft pitter patter of footsteps trailing into my room and towards the balcony, it was way to soft to be an adults and way too light to be Kristina.

"It's seven, are you gonna get ready for school?" I heard Melissa's soft angelic voice asked, concern laced in her tone.

I didn't reply, my gaze still trained on the beautiful promising sunrise ahead of me.

Did I want to go to school because I have a project meeting with my History group? Yes.

Did I want to go to school and see Jacob, Quil and Embry all look at Seth expectantly, waiting for him to switch over and leave me alone and friendless? HELL NAW.

Suddenly I felt something drop on my lap, I glance down and saw Mr Fox sitting awkwardly on my lap.

"Mr Fox is also a healer, like his ancestors. He'll make you feel better." She said softly.

I frown and scoff, "No it won't. Now get your stupid stuffed animal and get out!" I said harshly and turned my gaze back to the sunrise.

I heard a gasp before I heard her storm out, I sighed and looked back down to Mr Fox.

I picked him up with a sigh, "I should probably go apologize ha?"

I tilt my head stared at its unblinking eyes. Cute how I'm talking to a stuffed plush animal whilst still in my PJ's. I sighed again and kicked myself of the balcony and walking into my room, Mr Fox clamped between my fingers.

I picked out a pink sweater and blue knee cut jeans to go with it, I also grabbed my bathroom materials and headed for the bathroom before I hit traffic; the fam.

After I had a nice long warm bath I turned the water off and stepped out, a fog of mist erupted and filled the bathroom.

I wrapped myself neatly in my stainless white towel and step in front of the mirror.

I wipe away fog the clouded the glass and was surprised to see the pale petite girl staring back at me with bags under her now dark eye's. I sighed and frustration and turned away from my reflection. I twisted the doorknob but stopped half way when I heard the hushed inaudible whispers comming from the hallway.

I could barely make out what they were saying but this was all I could pick up.

"I can't stand it..Henrik." my mum seemed to say.
