CHAPTER 1

Skyla Spencer parked her blue 2012 Honda CRZ outside the small house she just bought near the border of La Push, Washington. She walked up to the small red house and unlocked the door and looked around inside. It wasn't huge, not like she was used to living in with Bryce. This house only had two bedrooms, a kitchen, with wooden counter tops and an island. There was small dining room as well. Her house with Bryce had six bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a huge dining room and state of the art kitchen. Skyla let out a sky and ran her fingers through her wavy long blonde hair. She stepped outside on the porch and her crystal blue eyes looked around. It was actually very pretty around here, lots of trees and a clear blue sky. Skyla walked to her car and opened the trunk and started unloading her stuff from her car and bringing it in the house. She decided she would go buy some furniture tomorrow instead of shipping her furniture here from her house, the furniture would only remind her of Bryce anyway, her ex she was still very much in love with. Skyla tucked her hair behind her ear before grabbing her purse. She might as well find something to eat for dinner and see if she could find any furniture stores in the area.

Skyla got in her car and backed out of her driveway and made her way towards Forks. She thought she'd go in the grocery store and buy a few things to eat. She'd have to unpack her dishes and pans so she could cook and eat. She hated the thought of getting everything unpacked but she wanted to get settled in and maybe after she looked in a few furniture stores tomorrow she could find a job. She didn't really need the money, she actually had money and no need to work but she couldn't sit around and do nothing all day. Getting a job and meeting new people would be good for her and help her get settled in. Skyla let out a sigh as she continued to drive. She knew starting over wouldn't be easy, there would be a new place to get used to and she'd have to get out and meet new people as well. At least these people wouldn't feel sorry for her when they looked at her and she wouldn't have to see their looks of pity as they looked at her because of everything that happened. Skyla wiped a tear that ran down her cheek as she spotted the grocery store and pulled in and parked her car. She pulled down the visor and checked her reflection before grabbing her purse and heading in the store.


Paul mumbled under his breath as he pushed a cart through the store. He had no idea why Sam had to send him to the damn grocery store. Why he had to be the one to go. He could have easily sent one of the other guys but no Sam sent him and to make things even worse Sam made him bring the happiest kid on the face of the earth with him. Seth. The kid never had a frown on his face he was always smiling, he was always in a good mood and it was basically impossible to hate him. It was like you couldn't make him mad and Paul had tried plenty of times but the kid had better control of his emotions than Jacob Black or Sam did. That was saying a lot because those two had a lot of control but even they got mad every now and then. So that's how Paul found himself pushing a cart down the aisles of the grocery store as Seth bounced along behind him, chatting about nothing and throwing the things Sam sent them after in the cart. Paul looked up and spotted a beautiful girl walking towards them. He had never seen her before and wondered if she just moved here. Suddenly this annoying trip to the store was all worth it. This girl had long wavy blonde hair that seemed to shine when the light hit it. Her skin looked so smooth and flawless. As he got closer to her she looked up and he noticed she had beautiful, sparkling crystal blue eyes. She was beautiful.

"Here, you finish up," Paul told Seth and walked away from the cart and Seth saw him walk over to a girl and shook his head. Paul would never change, he would forever be trying to talk pretty girls into his bed and the girls would always agree.

Paul walked over to the beautiful girl he spotted across the store.

"Hey beautiful," he said and Skyla looked up at him.

"Hi," she replied and grabbed something from the shelf and put it in the cart.

"So you busy later?"

"Actually I am," she told him.

"Oh," Paul said shocked, this wasn't how the conversation usually went. "What are you doing?"

"Unpacking."

"Did you just move here?"

"Yes," she said nervously.

"Well if you want to have some fun while you're unpacking…."

"No thanks," Skyla said and walked away pushing her cart over Paul's toe in the process. Seth covered his mouth with his hand so Paul wouldn't see him laugh. He had never seen a girl reject Paul. As she walked by Seth she saw him laughing and she glanced over at him and then back at Paul who was scowling at them. Seth waved at her as she walked by and she managed a small smile and waved back.

Paul walked back over to Seth and saw he was laughing at him and he scowled.

"What?" he snapped.

"She turned you down," Seth told him. "And ran over your foot with her cart."

"She just moved here," Paul told him. "I'm sure I'll run into her again." he added and walked away.


As Skyla drove home she thought about the guy that talked to her in the store. He was actually very attractive, tall, tanned skin, he looked to be muscular as well, she was sure he was hiding a six pack under his t-shirt. He also seemed like the type of guy that usually got what he wanted, he seemed shocked she turned him down. He probably didn't get turned down a lot and just by looking at him she could see why. Skyla just wasn't ready to date or do anything with a guy again yet and she really didn't know if she ever would be. Bryce was the first guy she ever truly loved. Yeah she had said she loved guys before him and she had even thought she loved them as well but when she met Bryce and actually went on a date with him and got to know him she knew she had never really been in love with those other guys. She let out a sigh and thought back to the first time she met Bryce at a party hosted by mutual friends of theirs.….

Skyla's friend Tiffani and her fiance Bryan had invited her to a party at their house on a Saturday night. Just a small get together of a few of their friends. Skyla didn't really know anyone there and spent most of her time by the food table nibbling on chips and cheese cubes, just minding her own business when someone interrupted her.

"Hello," someone said and Skyla turned around and saw a very attractive guy standing in front of her. He was about 5'8" tall so he stood over her tiny 5'2" frame. He had short dark hair and beautiful dazzling blue eyes. She could tell he worked out, he had lean muscular arms, He was definitely attractive and sexy.

"Hi," Skyla replied and he smiled, revealing a set of perfect white teeth and Skyla couldn't help but think he had a beautiful smile.

"I'm Bryce," he said and she nodded. "What's your name beautiful?"

"Skyla, but everyone calls me Skye."

"Skye, that's pretty I like it," he said.

"Thanks," she smiled.

"You have a pretty smile."

"Thank you," Skyla said quietly.

"You're a friend of Tiffani's?"

"Yes," Skyla said. "You must know Bryan?"

"Yeah we went to school together, used to be neighbors as well." he said. "So any chance I can get your number or take you out."

"Sorry but no," Skyla said softly walked away.

Skyla let out a sigh as she parked her car outside her house. She had turned Bryce down twice before she finally agreed to go out with him. She never imagined she would have been so happy with him or that she would have fallen so deeply in love with him.

Skyla got her groceries out of her car and went inside her house and started putting things away. She had seen Bryce again a week later when she was out shopping with Tiffani for wedding stuff.

Skyla and Tiffani were shopping at the mall getting things for Tiffani's wedding in two months. Tiffani had finally decided to stop in the food court to eat lunch and rest a little. Tiffani had excused herself to go to the restroom and left Skyla at the table by herself. She had only been there a couple of minutes when someone walked over.

"Skye," a voice said and Skyla looked up and saw Bryce standing there and smiled.

"Bryce, hi," she said.

"So you do remember my name," he said happily and walked over and sat in Tiffani's vacated chair. He looked at all the bags around the table. "Been doing a lot of shopping?"

"Those are all Tiffani's for her wedding," Skyla told him and he smiled. "This one's mine," she added and held up a small bag and he nodded.

"So tell me Skye, do you have a boyfriend?" he asked.

"No," she smiled.

"You dating anyone?" he asked.

"No," she said.

"You want to go out with me?"

"Bryce, I'm sorry but no," she told him.

"Skye," he said. "Maybe there's something telling us we belong together. What are the chances I'd be at the mall the same day as you and find you in the food court?"

"Not very good," she admitted. "But if we're supposed to be together, you'll find me again."

"True," he sighed. "So is there a reason you don't want to go out with me?" he asked. "Do you think I'm ugly or something?"

"No Bryce I don't think you're ugly I think you're very attractive actually." she admitted.

"Ok, well I'll see you again sometime," he said and stood up and walked away.


Skyla started putting up her groceries up as she thought about Bryce. It was about two and a half weeks later before Skyla saw Bryce again. It was after work and Skyla had decided to get something to eat for dinner instead of cooking for herself.

Skyla parked her car outside her favorite Chinese restaurant and went inside to pick up her food. After getting her food she turned around and walked out. When she got outside she turned to go to her car and saw Bryce was walking towards the restaurant.

"Skye, we meet again," he smiled.

"It seems so," she replied and she wondered if he was going to ask her out again.

"Skye," he said. "Will you let me take you out on a date?" he asked and she smiled.

"Yes," she answered and wrote her number down for him on the paper he held out for her.

"Really?" he asked surprised.

"Yeah," she smiled. "Call me," she told him.

"Oh I will Skye," he smiled and watched as she got in her car and drove away.


Skyla and Bryce met when she turned nineteen and dated for about a year before they got married. They had almost a year engagement before they got married and the two of them were happily married for a year. Now at 23 she found herself alone in a place she didn't know anyone starting over from scratch and she just really hoped she had made the right decision because there really was nothing for her back home but heartbreak and memories of Bryce everywhere she went.

Skyla fixed herself some dinner before heading to bed. Tomorrow she had a long day of furniture shopping to do and then maybe she could turn her house into a new home for her. Before bed she pulled out a photo of her and Bryce on their wedding day and ran her fingers over Bryce's face. A tear ran down her cheek and she wiped it away. Bryce and Skyla had a year of happiness before everything was ripped away from her and she couldn't go anywhere without being looked at with those looks of pity and sorrow and having everyone say how sorry they were for what had happened, but that didn't take the pain away.
