Chapter 1

The slender girl's curly hair bounced as she ran down the stairs, her wide brown eyes curious as she walked in the kitchen to attend the call on their landline. It was very rare that it rang since the whole family had cell phones.

"Hello?"

There was a pause so she repeated herself a little louder this time.

"Err…Hi, is this Robert Townsend's number?" A deep manly voice asked and Katrina felt her toes curl and skin tingle. Hmm..strange but then it was a sexy voice.

"Yeah…who's asking?"

"Paul..Paul Lahote. I..I am calling from La Push." The other voice said uncertainly.

"Oh..you are the Paul Lahote! Please hold on..I'll just get dad." Kat said feeling excited. She had heard lots of stories about her dad and his friends. Two, three names had always stood out and Paul's was one of them.

"DAD!"

Paul cringed on the other end when he heard the girl screaming. She sure had a pair of lungs on her. He couldn't help but smile though. There was something about her voice…

"Paul?"

"Robert?"

"Hey! It is you! How have you been? Why haven't you been in touch? You still in La Push?"

Paul laughed as his friend fired questions after questions.

Katrina stood in the kitchen trying to eavesdrop but moved out once her father gave her the look but not before hearing Paul laugh. She felt tingly again.

Michelle chuckled as she watched her daughter peep into the kitchen from time to time even as her husband kept shooting her annoyed looks.

"Pumpkin, why don't you come and sit here?"

"Mom, how come you are never curious about why daddy never went back to La Push?" Kat asked as she flopped down on the couch beside her mother.

"What's there to be curious about? Your dad got a job here after he completed his studies and after the death of his parents he just never felt like going back there."

"But why didn't we visit my grandparents?" she asked curiously.

Michelle sighed. "Kitten, you already know the answer to that."

Kat tucked her hair behind her ear.

"Yeah but didn't they ever want to talk to or see dad again after your wedding? Didn't they miss him?" She couldn't understand why her grandparents were so upset about her dad marrying their mom. Sure she wasn't a native but really was that the only thing one looked for in a life partner? Her mom was the best person for her dad. She balanced him out and kept him calm and he did the same. They were perfect for each other. While she had witnessed arguments between them, there never were any fights that got ugly. They just stopped talking to each other for about a day and then the next morning they would come out looking all lovey-dovey. She did not want to imagine how they got there.

"Where's you sister?" Robert asked Kat as he came out of the kitchen after completing his call.

She looked up to see a huge smile on his face.

"She's at Amy's, something about a project. Why?" Amy was her sister's bestie. They were inseparable.

Robert sat down beside Michelle and put his arm around her.

"Pack your bags, love, we are going to La push this weekend."

Kat squealed and Michelle smiled big as well. She knew her husband missed his home town.

"Paul is getting married." Robert shook his head," Didn't think I would live to see the day." He chuckled.

"Why?"

He chuckled at his daughter.

"Because, kitten, he never was the commitment kind of guy."

"Hmm..what was he like?" Kat asked placing her arm on the couch's arm rest and her chin on her palm.

Robert rolled his eyes before answering.

"He was the definition of the bad boy, player of high school. Being late for classes, hooking up often and not giving a damn about what other's thought of him since he was popular anyways."

"Hmm…" Kat said thoughtfully. "Will we stay there for long?"

Robert tensed and Michelle placed her hand over his.

"No."

"Why?"

Robert gave her a look which shut her up.

"Katrina, why don't you call your sister to see when she'll be home? I want her home for dinner."

She got up to call her but she couldn't get the voice or questions out of her head.

"H..He..Hello?"

"Mee mee, mom wants you home for dinner."

"Hmm."

"Mee? Why do you sound out of breath?" Kat frowned.

"Aahh..It's nothing I just forgot my phone in the car so I ran out to get it."

"You heard your phone ringing in the car?" Kat asked incredulously.

"I..I was..near it..Outside I mean..God, kitten! Why do you ask so many questions?!" Mia said exasperatedly and she heard giggling in the background.

"Is that Amy? Can I talk to her?"

"No, she's in the bathroom."

"But you said she was outside?"

"No, Kat, I said I was outside!"

"Oookaaay…Come home on time, k?"

"Yeah. Bye."

"Ouch." Kat said as she stared at the phone. Mia hung up rather quickly.

She shrugged before going to her room to figure out if she had an outfit fit for a wedding.

After half an hour of searching, she was certain she didn't have anything. Still, she took two cocktail dresses down to show to her mom.

"Mom, will this do for the wedding?" She asked scrunching her face.

Michelle quickly pushed her husband who had been getting frisky.

"Eww.. why do you guys do that here? Arggh."

Robert and Michelle chuckled at their daughter's antics before separating.

"Both will look amazing on you, sweetie but if you want we can look for some here or even in La Push."

She brightened up at the idea. Nodding and heading back to her room to prepare for the trip.

She was excited to go La Push to attend her dad's best friend's wedding.
