The way everyone looked at me when I stepped into the room was beyond embarrassing. I felt my cheeks starting to burn up but knew that nobody would see that very well because of my dark skin. I looked down at my outfit and wondered why on earth that I picked a skirt and a thin cotton sweater in this rainy weather. Maybe it was because my long lean legs looked better in skirts? And that my boobs looked bigger in the sweater? Or maybe I just wanted to make a good impression… Me, Jamie Call, famous "ladies man" Embry Call's sister. Well whom would I make an impression on? That's a great question. I kept on down to the front of the classroom to give the note to the teacher for her to sign. "Well, aren't you the famous little Call-girl?" Mrs. Bell asked in a grumpy, slightly shaky voice. Call-girl? The way she said it made it sound like a freaking whore. Well my brother was kind of a man-whore, maybe she thought that I took after my brother maybe? "Well…" I started but Mrs. Bell interrupted me midsentence. "You can take a seat next to Mr. Clearwater" She said with her grumpy little voice. I rolled my eyes as I looked over at 'Mr. Clearwater'. The guy that I saw was as big a mountain, or maybe not a mountain but he was BIG! Like B-I-G! He was quit intimidating when you got up close. I sat down as quietly as possible and looked over at the Clearwater dude, but I quickly looked away when I saw he was watching me to. "Hey, my name is Seth" He said with his deep, husky voice and I felt his breath in the back of my neck. It made me shiver ever so slightly. I slowly turned around and took a deep breath, smelling his deep smell of saltwater and sand. It was extremely comforting. "Jamie" I said back in a shaky voice. I blushed and cleared my throat. There was an uncomfortable silence until he finally spoke. "You're Embry's sister?" He asked like he was surprised. It made me giggle a little. "He's the brother I never wished for…" I said with disgust clearly written in my voice. He stifled a chuckle and nudged me a little. I smiled a little so my dimples wouldn't show to much. That would be so embarrassing.
When class ended I hurried out of the classroom and Seth had to run after me. "You should sit with me and my friends in lunch. Or, if you don't want to sit at the same table as your brother you don't have to… But I think everyone at school would want to meet the new blood so I thought it would be okay to steal you instead of feeding you to the wolves." At his last statement he's voice got a little funny. "M'kay, I guess. I'd rather stay alive for another week or two…" I mumbled a little. "Hey Seth, J" I heard a deep familiar voice booming behind us. I groaned and turned around just to look into my brother's chest. "Hey up there to you to, Embry." I said in my innocent little sister voice. Seth quietly laughed beside me, his shoulders were visibly shaking and I giggled as Seth bit his lip. "Whatcha doin?" He looked over at Seth and glared a little. "You better keep your hands to yourself, Seth!" I laughed at his statement. "Seth is no more than a friend, E. Don't worry, I'm a big girl. I know that I can take care of myself anyway… That's what I've been doing the last 10 years." I mumbled quietly, and I wondered if they even heard the last statement. Embry's arms were quickly around me as the tears started to well up and clouded my vision. "Don't let them fall, you have to keep them in or you won't last long honey." He whispered in my ear.
10 years ago when our mom died, Embry and I were sent to separate foster homes, me to Alaska and Embry stayed in La Push. We still kept contact and were allowed to visit each other a couple of times through the years, but when Embry turned 18 he wanted his sister back for good so he fought the court and signed the papers for custody. And that how I ended up here. I shook my head and looked up into Embry's comforting brown eyes. "Thank you, for taking me back here I mean." I whispered and quickly brushed away the single tear that fell. "You have nothing to thank me for." He grinned wide and I rolled my eyes.
The rest of the day at school went fine, until lunch. Damn it, you should think that they were feeding these guys steroids instead of real food. I felt tiny when I sat down in between Seth and Embry. "This little lady here is my little sister, Jamie. So you guys keep your hands to yourself!" He was pretty protective when it wasn't needed. I looked over at the big "people" and Kim, I think that's the best way to explain them. They all introduced themselves as Jacob, the big guy with childish eyes and features, Jared, the quiet, "suck-face-with-Kim" guy, Quil, the talk-to-much guy and the incredible hot stare-a-lot dude. Ha-ha, that rimed. But yeah, he did stare a lot at me at lunch. I didn't catch his name so let's keep calling him stare-a-lot dude.
The only thing I ate at lunch was a banana. Most of the guys groaned in unison when I picked it. I laughed evilly and took a bite. My brother growled, yes he GROWLED at the other guys. After that I left the guys table and threw the rest of the banana in the trash can.
I walked down the hall to the gym. I had P.E now. How lucky am I? When I walked into the girls locker room and every girl stopped with what they were doing and looked up at me. They shot me those bitch-glares you get when you have something they don't and they want it. I kindly smiled back and started to change. Every one of those bitches was all super-skinny size two and had nothing on my breasts. I put on my blue volleyball shorts and an easy white tee. After I put on my shoes, I looked over at the other girls skimpy tops and short shorts. Haven't they ever heard of a t-shirt? I followed the others out. I was practically bouncing when I saw the large volleyball nets in the middle of the gymnasium. When I was bouncing I think I kind of hit someone in the face. I quickly spun around and ended up hitting my head in another's head. "Ohmygod, I'm so so so, sorry!" I was waiving fanatically around me.
