I suppose getting into a shouting match with a werewolf first thing in the morning is probably not the smartest thing in the world but hey who said I was smart?
xXx
Where do I start?
I suppose the beginning would be nice.
Really. It would.
Then perhaps you'll understand me more. Who I am and why I am who I am.
But for personal reasons I won't start there. No. I'm not ready for that. Not yet. Not quite.
So then I guess I'll start in the middle.
Yeah. That will be perfect.
XxX
I suck when it comes to being on time. No lie. Dad always said I'd be late to my own funeral…and you know what? I think he's right. As much as that grates my nerves for me to admit…
But anyway I really can't ever be on time but today I was running extra late. I think it runs in my genes. Ugh. I knew I shouldn't have gone to that party last night….
Whatever, I guess I'll be putting Dad's theory to the test once I step through 's door. That old bat is going to kill me…or call my father so he'll do it. Bah-Jeezus, I hate that woman. She's so annoying. All she ever does is be on my case. It's not like I asked her to be my chemistry teacher. If I could have, I would have switched to another block but all the other AP Chem. classes were filled.
Three. Words.
My. Luck. Sucks.
Slamming the door to Ole Red, my rusting Cadillac, I quickly make a bee line for the school's entrance. Which by the way seemed like a thousand miles away. Shit. I hated getting the shitty parking spots .All of the good ones were reserved for the top one hundred students. I was just thirty spaces away from snagging spot 100. So. Un. Fair.
With a scowl I glanced at my phone watching as time sprinted by. It was already ! School started at 8:15. I was 10 minutes late! What did I tell you? Just as I was about to shove my phone into my pocket, it vibrated. The screen to my iphone lit up automatically and a small but loud 'ding' was heard. I frowned.
Who the heck was this…
My eyes widened as I read the name.
Oh.
Snap.
Karen.
I had forgotten to call her last night.
Dang…
I quickly put the password into my phone intent on reading the text from one of my closest friends.
Where r u, Soph?
The text questioned. I frowned with my eyes trained on my phone and my legs on autopilot. Man, I knew she had to be peeved. I closed my eyes and sighed. Better apologize…
Cold air nipped at my nose and fingers but ignored that. It is always cold here. Mostly because it was always cloudy. I pulled my jacket closer around my neck and sighed. I started pressing buttons.
Just got to school. Wats up? Hey sorry about yesterday…..
It took a few seconds for her to reply.
Don't worry about it….you'll pay me back l8r. :P NT way have u seen the new kids yet?
My face scrunched up…
New kids…?
I quickly texted back.
No…not even in the building yet. y?
I pressed send and watched my phone go dark. Karen's reply was almost immediate.
CUZ THEYRE HAWT!
I imagined the little blond actually jumping through the screen of my iphone screaming at me as my hair flew back from the force of her voice. The heck? She needed to calm down. My phone 'dinged' again.I pressed my latest message.
EVEN THE GIRLS! IM STRAIGHT AND ILL STILL FUCK 'EM!
My eyes bulged and I suddenly stopped moving.
Wow. I really should have been early huh.
If Karen was even thinking about doing anyone then they had to be hot. The girl was usually so picky about a potential fuck buddy that I thought she was just asexual. Guess I was wrong.
I resisted the urge to pull my hair. Ugh.
I swear I miss everything that ever happens here! I mean how often is it that I get to see my best friend drool over someone. Never!
I sighed and unintentionally glanced back down at my phone.
8: 45.
Oh fuck!
I really was going to die today!
Had to kick it into hyper gear. I was barely even half way there down the parking lot .Ugh!
Without a second thought I was running towards my destination hardly paying any attention to the road as I sprinted across. I mean c'mon! It wasn't like anyone would be coming anyway.
Right?
Right.
I started jogging. Maybe I would make it if I hurried up? But of course I was wrong. Maybe if I had been paying attention I might have noticed the car that was zooming down the student parking lot entrance. Maybe if I wasn't bust texting I would have stopped walking and let it plow into the dead end up ahead but I didn't.
I walked into the middle of the freaking road.
I was so fucked.
One minute I was walking across the street to get into the school. The next I was staring a possibly painful death (or a shit load of broken bones) right in the face. The silver charger was coming at a speed that was clearly beyond the schools speed limit. I stood gasping mid step in the middle of the road as my body froze. My breath caught in my throat, and I hardly had time to think except.
Oh shit!
Now.
Didn't I tell you?
My luck sucks.

"Oh fuck Nes! Calm down its just your first day-"
"I can't believe I'm late and for my first day too!"
Nessie was at a loss of words as she subconsciously pressed the pedal to the metal. She had been so nervous this morning about her first day at a school she hardly got a wink of sleep even though everyone had tried to convince her she was fine but of course she couldn't be convinced. This was her very first day of school and not just any old school. A real live human school. A high school none the less. She had already spent the first half of her morning just picking out an outfit. None was good enough, no matter how many times Jake told her how perfect she looked. She knew he'd say she look beautiful even if she was covered in a pound of dog feces and had gained a thousand pounds. As gross as that was…
Humming along to the music pouring through her stereo, Nessie couldn't help but tap her fingers against the steering wheel. She was just so anxious!
It was unacceptable to be this late. Just unacceptable!
Jacob couldn't help the groan that escaped his lips as he watched his imprint run yet another stoplight. I mean where were the cops in this town anyway? Not that he was really all that worried. Nessie was just as good a driver as her parents were. Even if there was some obstacle she would most likely be able to maneuver around it. It was just that-
Nessie made a swift turn into their new schools entrance. Already she had her phone flipped open and was texting her parents to let them know she had arrived. It had taken a lot of begging on her part to get them to stop bugging her about driving without them. She was seven now! She was a grown woman! She could take care of herself. Besides, Jake was with her. If anything did happen( which it wouldn't) Jake would stop it. He always did.
Jake sighed as he leaned against the car door. His head was propped against his hand and was looking at his imprint through half lidded eyes. All of the anxiety she was causing him had made him sleepy..or was it the fact that he had just pulled into their new school? Which by the way he really didn't even want to go.
He didn't like school the first 12 years he had been forced to attend. He sure as hell didn't want to have a second crack at it…but Renesmee had wanted him to come and so he did. Like any good imprinter would. He really had no choice. This was going to kill him. It really was.
Nodding off again, Jake suddenly jerked awake. His eyes glanced for a brief moment at the first he saw nothing and his eyes slipped close but at the last second something caught his eyes opened ever so slightly. He stared.
The hell is that-Oh fuck!
His squinted eyes widened as he recognized the fast approaching obstacle in the middle of the road.A person. Not just any person. A freaking school girl! Shit!
Her slow human speed made it seemed like she was walking instead of running. Like she was just standing there. Jake glanced at his girl, who was busy arguing on her cell to notice the obstacle. He started.
"Uh…Rene-"
"Hold on Jake! Ugh Mom-"
"Ness-"
"Wait a sec baby-"
Jake watched the girl get bigger. Her body still in mid step. He was staring right at her. Even from this distance he could see her eyes widen. The color had drained from her skin leaving behind an ashen color, her mouth was open in a mid scream that would never come out. They were going to hit her.
That is unless he did something to stop it. Using his quick reflexes he reached between Nessie's legs, much to her shock. She squealed. Just as the horn sounded.
"Jake. What the-"
His big meaty hands pressed against the car's break and the silver charger screeched. Nessie was busy shouting, her phone now forgotten in the back seat. She had beedn si shock that her phone slipped through her fingers, landing in the back. The phone she had been holding was now speaking with anxiety.
"Ness? Ness? Hello? What's going on?"
Renessme really didn't know what was going on. All she knew was that Jake had gone berserk. She stared at the side of his body wide eyed, not really afraid of him but more shocked. She didn't even know the car had stopped. She shouted.
"What the hell Jacob Bla-"
She was cut off as Jacob suddenly lifted his huge body away from her, his hand quickly reaching for the emergency brake. His head automatically swiveled to the front instead of at his screeching imprint. The horns loud honk stopped. For a second his body was tense even as he continued to lay over her, so that the Halfling couldn't see a thing beyond his huge bulk. She beat him with tiny hands.
"Jacob, have you lost your mind. You can't just go around stepping on the brake like that. I could've killed someone."
Oh the irony…
Then he got out.
Nessie watched him rush out and around the front of the mouth nearly dropped off her face.
Holy shit! I did kill someone.
XxX
AN: New story! Yay! Hope you guys like it so far. This particular plot has been stuck in my head for ages. As well as this character however every time I wrote something it would never be the right amount of humor/angst/etc. And yeah, there will be angst, drugs, self harm, possible sex, violence , possible love triangles(love those) and all that jazz.
