"Seth?" Megan tilted her head downwards, jerking her head into the view of the older boy who was holding the weight of her lithe body on his shoulders, literally. The two had followed the other boys out onto the La Push beach, shortly after she had met them. After she overcame her initial shyness, she easily wormed her way into the hearts of the wolves and their imprintees.

"Yeah?" Due to his quick reflexes, he didn't react that greatly to the sudden appearance of a head in the line of his vision. He blew lightly into her face, letting some of her hair fly into her eyes. 

She giggled, "I like your family. It had always been just me and Papa, no one else." 

Seth just grinned at that, glad that everyone was getting along just fine. Now that he imprinted on Megan, not only was she accepted by the pack, but he was accepted too. Megan was living proof that Renesmee and her were not dangerous beings, the pack could truly believe the truth they had been told.

That was really evident from Megan's giggling and tripping, no evil creature would do that, would it?

"I wanna come down, Sethie." Seth smiled and gently swung her down. His smile grew wider as Megan pulled him along, down to the wetter part of the beach where the others were. 

As Seth got dragged along, he felt that he was looking at the most beautiful sight in the world. Golden silk floating in the sweet beach breeze, the cream sundress fanning out around her as she runs along the sand. When she turned around to grin at him, that small porcelain face looked liked the most radiant thing in the world. Instead of just feeling grounded to reality by her, it felt like she brought him to a whole new dimension, beautiful and ethereal. Hearing her laugh was like hearing a million tinkling bells chiming away. Looking into her blue eyes was a sea of endless serenity and beauty.

If anyone looked in the two smiling teenagers' direction, they would see Megan giggling profusely like a small school girl, and Seth grinning away like a love-sick idiot. And so, like a puppy on a leash, Seth got tugged along.

...

"Paul, can you stop wiggling around?" Megan kicked at the sand, "I thought you were supposed to be dancing!"

"Pfft, you should have better taste." Paul raised an eyebrow, continuing to groove, knee deep in the water.

"You do look like you're wiggling." Jared snorts. And all it takes is a snort for the others to start gagging and laughing. Even Sam cracked a grin, arm around Emily.

"I'll just continue to 'wiggle' then." Paul wiggles his eyebrows suggestively, starting to rack up his feminine dance moves again.

"Stop that bloody dancing, Mr. Shirtless!"

That got everyone looking a little taken aback. 

"I thought I was speaking a little too backwards for you." With no reply, she took it that she had made a wrong move. She ducked her head down, a little embarrassed.

"Well, Your Highness." Embry smirked in her direction, walking towards her. "You sure do have a colourful vocabulary."

Megan looked up and smiled, turning to look at Seth, who was likewise grinning. But then she pouted, "Seth, this is getting boring. Em and Q wouldn't let me play with them, they said I'm a baby."

"Megs, you technically are." Seth shrugs in an attempt to be nonchalant.

"Hey!" She slapped his arm, albeit using a little to much strength in that arm swing.

"Ow...Megs, you're strong!" Seth pouted. Megan just giggled and stuck out a tongue at him. Seeing her cheeky antics, an idea for revenge suddenly popped up in his mind.

"Hey, Paul!" Seth calls over.

"What!"

"Wanna get some sweet revenge?"

"Did I hear, sweet?"

"Capital 'S', man! Water toss."

Being native to England, Megan didn't know what these games were for. Even more so, her small age and slower understanding probably made her lose track of the words. Needless to say, she found herself neck deep in salty sea water in the next few seconds. She didn't even have time to scream before Paul and Seth tossed her into the water, wolf-grins on their faces.

"I'm g-jhonna get you b-pjack!" That was all the spluttering they could make out.
