Hi guys, this is my first story. It's going to be Paul and an OC. I would love kind, constructive criticism. I'm going to make sure I complete this, and I'm going to try to make sure it fleshes the main characters out. I do have school so it might take quiet some time to finish, but I'll try my best.
My name's Evia, and I just recently graduated college and am heading into the real world. I'm so excited for my new job, despite not getting my first choice for location in Seattle. Forks, was still in one of the most beautiful states. Sure summers would be short but they would be worth it. And this was the coffee state, the state of perpetual rain (which I loved- mainly because it meant there was always an excuse for hot cocoa), and the state where I could start all over.
The last years have been tough with juggling, and no time to enjoy life. So at this point I'm just so excited to soak it all in. I landed my dream job to work for one of the biggest environmental firms in the country, and one of their branches is so close to the beach that I couldn't be more excited as a water person!
It was a gorgeous day when I got out of the airport and in my new car, Washington was more beautiful than I'd imagined. Forks was quaint and inviting, and I slowly drove up some dirt roads, after I'd passed my turn trying to find my way back. After an hour of not knowing how to get to my new house, I parked my car off the side of a forested area confused. The only turn my phone kept showing me was closed for construction. I contemplated attempting to walk, and figure out a way later, until someone called from behind.
"You need help Miss?"
I turned to see one of the most handsome men I've seen in a long time. He was tall with tan skin. Toned, giant, and muscular, with a square jaw. I had to stop myself from staring, in awe that someone could manage to go to the gym that much in cold Washington.
"I'm just lost, do you know how to get to M drive by any chance?"
"Yeah, you just need to go back down this road, and take the first right, and another right. You'll pass the obstructions that way. I'm Embry by the way, what's your name?"
I told him my name, and thanked him profusely. He just smiled and went on his way, leaving me jealous of every beautiful women in the world who might have stood a chance with such a gorgeous man.
I wasn't not beautiful. I mean, I guess I was pretty for a normal person, but this man was on a supermodel level. My tan skin, innocent face, and 5'6 frame wasn't smoldering enough. I suddenly heard my inner Tina Fey tell me to go for it anyway. Oh well, I'll have to find him again.
Washington was going to be interesting…
It's only the beginning, but please feel free to review and let me know what you think.
