Imprinted
Prologue
My gas light has been on for the last 14 ½ miles. I know, you are most likely asking why I didn't stop earlier, but I could NOT bring myself to spend over four dollars for gasoline. My fault, but by the looks of it, no matter who is at blame for this situation, I am going to be stranded in the middle of La Push.
I'm sorry; I forgot to introduce myself. Before you read my long explanation about how I got stranded on the side of a deserted highway, you might want to know my name. Well, I am Francis, yes, I am a girl, Collings. Most people, however, call me Fran. Nice to meet you. So that you can put a picture with the face, I am about 5 foot 6 and ¼ inches. Don't forget the ¼, it's important. Curly, 4 hours with help to straighten curly, brown hair and blue eyes. I have abnormally pale skin for living somewhat close to a beach, but it's Forks. A.k.a. no-sun-ever-land. I do run though and am actually currently training for my first marathon. Exciting huh? Well, I bet you wouldn't understand, but with an iPod, running really isn't so bad.
That actually explains why I am out here in La Push. I love running on the beach, in the morning. Did I mention it was morning? Yeah, about 6:34 if you'd like to know. I want to get at least 10 miles in before the crowd hits, but at the moment, it looks like I will come shy of my goal.
I don't even get a chance to pull over. The dang jeep (purple and the love of my life) died right in the middle of the two lane highway. With no one present, due to the early hour on a Saturday, it looks to me about the time to pull out my cell phone, but wouldn't you know there's no service. I can see the mountains near the beach, however, but they are just short of distant and according to my GPS, the beach that I have been heading for is just under 28 miles away.
Sigh. This is just… great.

So… what do you think?! I will most likely get super excited and write the first chapter tonight, but I don't want to post it until I get some suggestions about my writing style and introduction so that I can get the first chapter all perfect for you people ;)… Please review! This is my first story, and I want it to be the best it can be… If you give suggestions, not only will you possibly see your suggestions in my writing, but you might get to help with the plot, too! Doesn't that sound exciting?... Ok. If you review I'll give you a fresh cookie I will make tomorrow. Deal? Ok, I'm just kidding with the cookie part. Enjoy!
