Carley POV

La Push. That was the name of the small Indian reservation in the state of Washington that my family and I were moving to. I had to admit, I HATED small towns, but for some tiny reason in the pit of my gut I had a feeling that I was going to like it there. It was like I had an invisible string pulling me to that unknown place, even though I didn't like the rain. I have a social phobia, so I rarely leave the house. I am also incredibly plain. Just your average 14 year old girl. I have dark brown hair and dark hazel eyes, which from far away look like regular brown. Again, nothing special about me. I am not exactly ugly but not an amazing model, either.

"Carley, it's time to go! Kelsey! Stop chasing the dog and get in the car!" my mother, Penny, yelled.

I huffed a sigh and clambered into the car along with Mom, my sister, Kelsey, and our two dogs, Maggie and Marley.

The car ride took about four days to get from Wimberley, Texas to La Push, Washington. I was bored out of my mind the entire ride there, nothing to do except listen to my iPod touch (music is my life) and watch the rain roll down the windows of our white Trail Blazer. The closer that we got to La Push, the stronger the pull became and the more exited I got.

When we finally saw the sign that said 'Welcome to La Push' I sighed with relief. After sitting in that car with a Yellow lab that weighs 150 lbs. and wants to sit in your lap for 96 hours, you'd be eager to get to the place you would call home until you graduated from high school, too.

I stepped out and stretched my legs, walking around the property. The dogs jumped out of our car and stared chasing each other around in circles while sniffing around the house. Kelsey laughed and started to bug my mom, who was unlocking the door, about going to the beach that was around the corner. As I half listed to what my sister was trying to convince my mom to do, I looked at the house. It was small, had dark red shingles and had a dark roof, with two little windows in the front. Apparently, from what we had read online, it had three bedrooms, a living room, kitchen that was big enough to have a dining table in, master bath and spare bathroom for my sister and I to use.

Kelsey and Mom had already gone into the house so, curiously, I walked through the front door into our new home. I picked the room in the front that had the window and began to unpack my things. I had ordered many things online to decorate my room with so I would just have to deal with what I had already.

After about an hour of unpacking, Mom came into the doorway of my room. "Kelsey is going to First Beach and she can't go alone, will you please go with her?" she asked. "Sure," I answered. I wanted to lay out to see if I could get a bit of a tan while the sun was out because no matter what I did, I was pretty pale, even though it was still 70 degrees outside, but, then again, that was hot here and Kelsey could really care less.

I pulled on a hot pink tankini with a deep v-neck and grabbed two towels. Kelsey, of course, brought Marley. I swear she never went anywhere with out that dog. Anyway, as we walked down the road toward the beach I asked Kelsey how she felt about the move and she replied, "I didn't want to move, but now that we're here I guess that there is no turning back." She shrugged. We walked for a few more minutes in silence. Soon we reached the beach.

It was amazing! There were all these rainbow colored stones instead of sand and the waves were a aqua blue. A lot of couples strolled hand in hand and many tourists snapped shots of the beautiful scenery. Families played with their little ones in the shallow water, but what really caught my eye was about nine boys (if you could call them boys, they looked more like men), all wearing only cut offs, no shoes, no shirt, and no problem for me. As I thought that one of the boys looked at me. He had cropped his hair sort but some of it still hung in his eyes. He had the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen. They were such a dark brown that they were almost black, but they held kindness and care and secrets, but it seemed like happy secrets that he liked. When he smiled and laughed, his eyes sparkled and crinkled at the corners. He was beautiful. Then his eyes met mine and as soon they did his expression changed. First surprise, then excitement, then wonder and then….love? No, stop kidding yourself, Carley. Someone that gorgeous would never go for you. Get over yourself. I don't know how I did, but I blushed and looked away, toward Kelsey, who was squealing and laughing as she played with her dog in the shallows.

I spread out my towel and laid down on it, turning my head toward the men that I had seen earlier and put on my sunglasses so that I could watch the boy whose face was implanted into my mind. I looked over and he was still staring at me. His friends tried to get his attention but he was still caught up in me. Finally he said something to them and shock crossed their faces and then when they recovered they all patted him on the back and punched his shoulder affectionately. I wonder why? They then pushed him in my direction and he looked back at them with a pleading look as if to say 'Please don't make me do this' but walked toward me anyway. As he did, the pull became stronger than ever, but as soon as he reached me it stopped all together. Huh. I blushed and tried to pretend not to see him but my heart beat gave me away. Good thing that he couldn't hear it.

"Hi," the beautiful man said. He had to be at least 17.

"H-Hi," I stuttered. Great, now I looked like an idiot.

"My name's Seth, what's yours?" he blushed. Seth. A cute name for a cute guy.

"Carley," I replied. "How old are you?" I asked curiously.

"15, and you?"

"14. No offence or anything but you look a lot older," I said.

"Yeah, I get that a lot." He laughed.

There was an awaked silence.

"Soooo, are you new here, I haven't seen you around"

"Yeah, my family and I just moved from Texas, so this is a HUGE difference for me!"

"Really? So it must be really hot there, huh?"

I laughed. "If you call 105 degree weather hot then yeah."

"What do you like to do in your spare time?" he asked.

"Sing! I love to write songs as well. Music is my life!" I replied enthusiastically.

"Really? What type of music do you like?" he asked, curiously.

"Country. But not that old stuff," I made a face, "What about you?"

"Rock, Heavy Metal, stuff like that." he replied.

After that the conversation flowed easily. I liked talking with Seth; it was easy, natural, like I'd known him my whole life. Because of my fear of socializing, I didn't have many friends, even back home, so this pleasantly shocked me.

I looked back at Seth's friends. Some had smirks and others had knowing looks. Probably because Seth and I were talking and occasionally flirting. I guessed that Seth didn't do this often. We talked for about an hour and we still had plenty to say, he was VERY likeable.

I heard a wolf howl in the distance. We both looked in that direction.

"Did you hear that?" I asked.

He fidgeted around nervously as his friends walked into the forest.

"Hey I gotta go but would you like for me to show you around some time?" he blushed.

Yes!

"Sure," I said nonchalantly, "Let me give you my number."

I pulled a pen out of my purse and wrote my number on is hand.

"Call me," I said.

"Absolutely!" he said as he beamed, making my heart flutter like a butterfly's wings.

After we said our goodbyes, he ran into the woods after his friends.

"Yes!" I squealed as I started to pack up my things.

"What are you so happy about?" Kelsey asked.

"Oh, nothing," I replied as we headed out back home.

I couldn't wait to see Seth again.
