Lexi is a 17year old girl who lives with her 25yearold sister Kora and her daughter Karla. Kora is offered a teaching job at Forks High School.
My sister hated small towns, she blamed our childhood for that. But this town was smaller than any we ever lived in. Forks in the state of Washington. It was one of the most wettest place in the world and this is where we were moving.
"Lex, can you get Karla breakfast tomorrow and take her to the babysitters we organised." This was Kora's first day at school, I wasn't going to Forks High School, I was going to the high school at the reservation in La Push and I didn't start for another week. My dad was from the Makah Tribe and my mom was part Quileute so it was nice to come and see were she grew up.
The week passed by fast, we just emptied boxes for hours and ate and slept, it was Sunday night and I had my first day of school tomorrow. I was the first day of semester. I was so nervous, I didn't know anyone and I didn't know if I had relatives there. The morning was wet and cold as to be expected. I dragged myself out of bed and had a shower washing my hair so it smelt nice.
By the time I got out Kora had already left.
There was a note on the table.
Have a good day at school. Don't start fights and act dumb!
Me and Karls will be home at 4… see you then
X x try and enjoy yourself.
Love K
She always told me that my intelligence scared people away and that I need to 'dumb it down.' I chuckled at the note then realised I was running late, I snatched my jacket and ran for the car. Kora and Me had our own cars, her's was a minivan and mine was a 1990 Chevrolet 454 SS. My dad's last car before he passed. I got to the school late it was 9:30 I parked the car and ran to the reception. "Hello, can I help you?" "Yes I'm new here and I need a timetable please."
I was always good at being polite to strangers.
"Oh You must be Lexi Brown? School doesn't start until 10 dear, and its not even a school day it's only orientation" The lady said trying to hide her amusement.
"Oh well that's fine, I'll just wait for orientation, thank you" I left and went straight back to my car, the lot was empty how could I of missed that? I turned on some music and tried to relax and forget how embarrassing that was.
The music thumped on and I fell asleep, I woke up with a start when a car honked at another, the lot was filling up and I could see people running for the buildings. I took one deep breath and slipped out of the car for the second time, I pulled up my hood and blended in with the crowd.
I kept my head down and followed a group of jackets into a large hall. I walked to the very back and sat down, trying to be invisible. A horrible beeping noise filled the room and more people swarmed through the door happy and excited to see old faces. A group of teachers walked to the front. One gave the welcoming speech and introduced himself Mr Opeka the principle. The doors flung open interrupting Mr Opeka's speech, a large group of very attractive tall muscly boy's waltzed in grinning. There were 7 of them.
"You're late Boy's, don't be again!"
"No prob's Mr O" the biggest one said.
All the girls around me were giggling and whispering. I guess these were the 'popular group.'
The meeting continued and as it drew to an end everything was about to turn to shit!
"We have a new student here with us" Mr Opeka grinned at the crowd. "Please make her feel welcome"
Oh God please let him finish!!! Please don't let him call me up!! Please please please.
"Lexi Brown, are you here ? Can you stand please"
I felt my stomach twist so tight that I was sure I was going to throw up my non-existent breakfast. My cheeks were burning red hot and my throat was bone dry. Slowly I stood and gave a faint wave to Mr Opeka, but before I could sit down and try and blend in he said "Ahh up the very back!" Every single face turned to look at me. As impossible as it seemed my face got hotter, I smiled weakly and sat down. The steering didn't stop for the duration of it. When it finished groups started moving out, I waited for the crowd to die down. The group of 7 big boys's stayed seated also. When the hall was relatively empty I made my way for the door on the opposite side of the giant room. I lowered my head as I heard my name being whispered by a group of girls.
I got all my books and filled in my timetable and fled the school. I hated being the centre of attention and for those 3 hours, I was.
I was walking across the lot carrying my books and trying to find my keys in my bag and I walked straight into a car.
My book's fell to the ground and I felt like the wind had been knocked out of me, Dame! How fast was I walking?
"Ow" I moaned as I wrapped my arms around my tummy.
"Hey! Are you okay?" A husky voice asked coming up behind me. "Im fine, thank's. I just dropped my books." I bent down wincing, "Here let me," the boy said. I turned to face him I had to look up higher than I expected he was really tall with very impressive muscles. A grin spread across his face sending shivers down my spine. I don't know how long we stared at each other but eventually I began to blush and he chuckled.
"Here" He handed me the keys
"Im Embry by the way, Embry Call" He smiled down at me stunning me momentarily.
"Hi im Lexi Brown, new here" I shoke his hand, it was extremely hot but I didn't mind it fit him perfectly.
"OI EM! GET OVER HERE! AND STOP FLIRTING WITH THE NEW GIRL!" It was one of the 7 boys' I noticed in the hall earlier on. Figures. Embry was the hottest.
I blushed redder again; he chuckled and kissed the back of my hand making my breathing hitch "For your first day" He smiled at me again and walked to his group of friends. I stood there frozen for a moment, the cold finally kicked in and I ran for my car. I got home at 1:30 and had another shower.
It was funny how the crapest day turned out to be one of the best all because of Embry. He was perfect and very attractive but slowly I realised he was too good to be real. Too perfect. No one was perfect.
lol so tell me what you thought =)
Im not sure if its that good
