OK, this is my first fanfic and it's not very good, but never mind. It's from the POV of my own character, who is friends with Bella during New Moon.
I opened my eyes. Outside, the sky was covered in thick grey clouds. My bed was so warm, I wanted to stay there all day. But wait, today was Sunday! Bella and I were going down to the beach at La Push, and she was going to introduce me to Jacob Black and some of her other friends.
I quickly got dressed, wolfed down some toast, brushed my wavy light brown hair and walked to my car. It wasn't very flash, just an old Civic, but it worked reasonably well. I drove over to Bella's house to pick her up. We'd both agreed that it would be better to use my car, at least until her truck's engine was repaired. It kept stopping in the most annoying places, like the middle of the car park at Forks High School. Bella was probably going to ask Jacob to fix it today. She'd told me that he could fix any problem to any vehicle, which might be a bit of an exaggeration. According to Bella, Jacob could do everything.
And here came Bella now, clutching her rain jacket. I glanced up at the sky. Maybe it would rain later, but I wasn't very good at guessing the weather, even with a climate like Forks that never changed very much. Bella stumbled just as she got to the car. Hopefully she wouldn't hurt herself too badly today. "Hi, Katy," she said. "Nice weather for the beach!" "Well, at least it's not raining. More heat would be nice though." I replied.
The drive down to La Push's First Beach didn't take long. I climbed out of my car and felt a drop of water on my face. Great. There goes a day at the beach. The raindrops were falling harder and faster every second. I unearthed my rain jacket and tugged it on. Bella was waiting impatiently, and squinting into the rain. I guessed she was looking for Jacob. If he had any sense he'd be inside instead of hanging around the freezing cold, and now wet beach.
"Will Jacob still be here, in this weather?" I asked Bella.
"Jake doesn't care much about the cold, or the rain. But if keeps going on like this, we'll probably take shelter at his house. Who wants to have lunch outside in this?" Bella gestured at the gloomy clouds.
Suddenly a tall figure loomed out of the misty rain, coming closer and closer... I opened my mouth to scream, but Bella had run towards the person.
"Hi Jake! You're soaking, have you been swimming?" Bella said excitedly.
"Hi Bella, I didn't think you'd come. Everyone's relocating back to my house, and we were starting to get hungry." The person I assumed was Jacob replied. He had a deep, husky voice and appeared even taller up close.
"Um, hi." As soon as I said that I felt like an idiot. Bella and Jacob both turned to stare at me.
"Oh, sorry. Jacob, this is Katy. Katy, this is Jacob." Bella hastily introduced us.
Ow! Something hard had bounced off my head. Just what I needed. A hailstorm.
"Let's head back to my house!" Jacob shouted over the sound of the painful little chunks of ice pounding on my poor car. We all piled into my car, Jacob and Bella ending up in the back together.
"Someone will have to give me directions, I have no idea where Jacob's house is," I called over my shoulder.
"I'll tell you where to go. In a small place like La Push you'd find it hard to get lost. Believe me, I can get lost anywhere, but I've never managed to do it here. " Bella assured me.
I wasn't worrying much about how to find Jacob's house. The hail would complicate things when it came to driving safely. Eventually I pulled up outside the house that Bella directed me too. I'd driven as slow as I could to avoid damaging something, but the short drive had taken twice as long as it should've.
The three of us raced through the hail to the door as fast as we could. Jacob reached it first, pulled it open, and caught Bella before she slipped on the hailstones.
Inside was noisy. It sounded like all the inhabitants of La Push were throwing a party. But when we entered the living room, there was just a group of teenage boys and the remains of a large lunch. How could they eat so much? I'd thought that my brother was bad, but these guys were ten times worse. When we walked in, they greeted Jacob and Bella loudly. Jacob quickly introduced me to them, and them to me.
"This is Quil, Embry, Jared, Paul and Seth." Jacob waved a hand at each of them as he said their names.
I paid no attention to what he said after that. Seth was staring at me. And I was staring back at him, into the depths of his warm, dark, beautiful eyes. I couldn't look away, but why would I want to? I was overwhelmingly happy. I wanted to dance around the room, to sing and shout my happiness to the world! But then if I did that I wouldn't be able to gaze at Seth. Seth, Seth and his liquid eyes.
