I was walking home, soaked on my backside. I was pushed into a puddle which was really more like a lake by none other then Paul. When I reached my house I looked over at the driveway and saw a parked motorcycle.

"Huh. Jake must be here...." I thought with a heavy sigh, this had been a hard week. Sam had me running double patrols every night and being pushed into a puddle hadn't made things any better.

I walked inside head down hoping that I could just walk to my room without being noticed.
" Whoa! Seth did you go swimming?!" Jacob joked which got everyone's attention

"Seth Clearwater! You know better then to go swimming in your clothes!" Paul exclaimed, while everyone else laughed. I knew it was a joke but it didn't seem like it. I was cold despite the fact that I run a temperature of 108 degrees these days.

"Seth?...are you crying?" I head Leah asks as she took a couple steps towards me.
N-no...." I answered in a cracked voice. I suddenly felt the droplets for water rolling down my cheeks.

"Shhh...come on, let's get ya some DRY clothes before mom thinks one of us wet on the carpet" Leah said, she was at least trying to make me feel better, which for her was odd but I didn't hate it at all. I welcomed it.

I felt the others getting up, walking towards me. "Hey man! I didn't...." Paul started but I felt such anger inside of me as soon as I heard his voice.

"GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!" I shouted as more tears began to fall down my face. Leah hurried me out of the room and into the kitchen corner.

"Ignore those fucktards Sethiekins!" I said trying my best to make him feel better.

"Says you, Leah you've got something against everyone, you can ignore people without a problem....I can't" Seth said wiping the tears from his eyes.

"Okay. I'll bring you upstairs so can...dry off" I said "And if those bastards give you any crap, they won't be walking for the next lil while" I told him which made him smile. Seth is one of the ONLY people I think are worthy of getting cared for by me, plus he's my little brother so I had to take care of him.

I looked over at Seth as him and Leah walked up the stairs. "Probably to go get some dry clothes" I thought as I looked over at Paul who was beside Embry watching who knows what.

"So why did ya push Seth into a puddle again Paul?" I asked pretty confused.

"Well he said was thirsty and then there happened to be a puddle like right beside him!" Paul answered with a smile before turning back to the T.V. I rolled my eyes, there's never a reason. I got off the couch and walked over to the stairs and leaned over the railing waiting for Leah and Seth.

Me and Seth were just walking around La Push, I felt like Seth really needed someone to talk to.

"So Seth …… are you ok now?" I asked, poor kid he shouldn't have to work his hard.

" Just wonderful……." Seth sighed

"Seth don't worry about Paul" I said and watched Seth rolling his eyes.

"I really wish I didn't have to be on patrol tonight, I mean I don't mind but I'm dead tired" Seth said. I could tell he was tired; he didn't have any bags under his eyes but just from the way his eyes looked and how his voice came out you could just tell.

"Make something up" I told him and almost laughed at the expression on his face.

"What I mean is, just pretend your sick" I told him showing a slight smirk.

"I can't get sick! Werewolf thing" he said and he had a point there.

I was pretty grateful for Jake's help in all this. I really didn't want to have to go on patrol tonight; I really wasn't in the mood. " I know, I know Seth, but you could just fake it. Tell Sam while you were upstairs with Leah you got sick, he'll know what ya mean" Jacob told me.

" Ha! Wonder if he'll believe it!" I laughed at this as me and Jacob neared the woods at first beach. Suddenly we heard footsteps coming up from behind us.

" Who do you think will believe your sick? The voice asked
