Hi, I am excited to start this and I'm excited to see if you guys like it. I will be focusing on this story a lot since I've put a lot into it already. I really hope you guys enjoy it and favorite/follow and review. I do like to hear responses and feedback, no matter if it is good or bad. This story does start prior to Eclipse but after New Moon and will continue even after Breaking Dawn. There are some differences from the actual story so that I could have my own unique twist but of course I'll keep good chucks on the storyline as well. Especially with the characters since those are the ones we fell in love with. A thing to know is each chapter is named after a song from Ellie and Jacob's playlist and I'll list it as she chapter name as well as the header. This story is Dual POV so you will hear some chapters from Ellie and others from Jacob this first one is split between the two but most chapters will be one or the other. I really hope you guys enjoy.
I Found (Amber Run)
Ellie's POV
New starts weren't a bad thing. A new start is what I needed. I took a deep breath and pulled out my key to my new house and walked in. I walked inside the empty foyer and noticed that my parents had already unpacked most of the house. I had come a week later than them because I wanted to at least finish first term fully. I walked inside and noted the spiral staircase that led one way and the living room and open floor plan concept kitchen. It was beautiful, the house made up for the location I suppose.
It was supposedly always rainy in Forks, Washington and besides that, the town was tiny with not shit to do. We had moved here from Seattle because my mother was a prestigious neonatal surgeon and the job offer here offered her a higher pay raise and it helped that my dad was looking for a place to open Highland Construction Company. A business he built on his own, and he knew a small town with not much in it would be a good start for expansion.
I hadn't wanted to come. Not because I was brat or because I was spoiled and I'd miss my friends. I hadn't wanted to come because it terrified me having to start over.
I walked into the kitchen and saw a note on the fridge telling me the rents were out and I sighed. This was supposed to be a new start for them too. They had this whole spill about never being there for me and as much as I loved them it was true. It was almost as if they forgot they had a child at times. My father was a free spirit often going on his own, wondering, 'discovering himself', and my mother lived for her job. "All work no play makes Judith a dull girl." I grumbled as I headed back to my range rover and started pulling out my boxes for my room. The only part of the house that would probably be unpacked for a few days. But unlike them I liked to unpack my own things and not pay others to do it, so it would take time. I sighed and started back into the house and up the stairs.
My room was at the far end of the house, much like it was in our old home and I opened my door relieved to see they had remembered the big stuff. My vanity and my dressers were on one side of the room and my queen size bed was smack dab in the middle. Apparently they couldn't be bothered to put anything in a logical location though. I set down the boxes I was carrying and walked further into my room and pursed my lips. It was massive which most people probably would love, I didn't care for all the space. There was a small nook where I noticed I could put shelves in for my books and read by the window. I smiled at that thought and went to the closet and nearly died.
I may not be huge on bedroom space but closet space was always a must. It was a walk in closet that began slightly narrow and opened up into a large dome like space with a purple settee in the middle of the room and windows everywhere. I walked out and went to the opposite side of the room and noted that I had my own bathroom connected to my room.
"Hey hunny." I turned and smiled at my dad running up to him and hugging him. "Its good to see you too." He smiled. "So how do you like it?" He asked. I looked around the room and couldn't fight the smile.
"You did a good job. The room is nice." I told him as I started pushing my vanity to the spot I wanted it and he grabbed the other end helping me set it up. For a few minutes we were quiet like that as he helped me put all of my big furniture where I wanted it.
"We figure this would be about the dream room so you won't have to bother us too much." He chuckled. I rolled my eyes and threw a purple pillow at him.
"You know you are as pleasant as ever, in fact you should get dad of the year award." I told him. He chuckled and I rolled my eyes. "I'm hungry, what do you want for dinner?" I asked him getting up and heading downstairs. "Since I'm being oh so generous I will cook whatever you want."
"Yeah about that..." He began I opened the fridge and I felt my eye twitch.
"You've been here a week and you two haven't gone grocery shopping?" I looked at him incredulous and he smiled rubbing the back of his neck.
"You know how it gets Ellie, we've just been eating take out and stuff." I glared at him and he looked at me defensively. "Well your the one who cooks anyways! Your mother's cooking could kill someone and I'm not exaggerating you remember in the third grade when she tried to bake for the bake sale and all of those kids got food poisoning!" I shook my head and pinched the bridge of my nose. "And we were hoping you would cover the groceries since we didn't even really know what to get." He mumbled embarrassed as he should be! They were grown and they couldn't even shop for their own groceries!
I sighed and grabbed my keys off the counter, "I'll go now."
"I love you sweetheart. I should be home when you get back to help you bring the groceries in." He kissed my cheek and headed off to the side of the house. I
I shook my head and jumped in the rover and cranked it up as I headed into what I hoped was town. I pulled on leg up and rested my cheek on it as I drove and looked around for grocery store. It was getting dark fast and after about forty minutes I came to the conclusion I was definitely lost. I banged my head into my hand and rolled my eyes as I saw. 'Welcome to La Push'
You have got to be kidding me. I started to turn around when I saw a grocery mart and decided I could kill two birds with one stone. I parked in the parking lot and hopped out of my car and started inside grabbing a cart.
Grocery shopping was quiet uneventful and I sighed as I took everything to the checkout and waited for the man in front of me to finish.
"Look at all the shit she has! It's going to take forever for her to finish." I heard someone complain behind me. My shoulders tensed and I could hear the other guy let out a oomph.
"Dude shut up she can hear you!" Another guy said.
"I don't care. We have to get back to Emily's and I don't feel like waiting forever." He growled.
"For once I agree with Jake." Another guy said. I rolled my eyes. Fucking douche bags.
I turned around and stared at the three guys boredly. Okay on the inside I was kind of freaking out because they were a lot bigger then me. Like a lot. I mean steroids had to be a real problem in this community.
"Do you want to go in front of me?" I asked with an arched brow. I crossed my arms over my chest and the one in the middle stopped and turned staring at me. He had beautiful chocolate eyes and his eyes widened as he gazed at me. He had this lovesick look in his eyes and I could feel a blush crawling up my neck and I cleared my throat and broke eye contact with him.
"Uh, no we um... No... You can go first." He stuttered out. I looked at him confused, he had just been gripping and bitching about having to wait for me. I shrugged and started loading my things.
"Dude what the hell we could have gone in front of her." One guy grumbled but the guy didn't say anything back to him instead he grabbed me by the crook my elbow gently and I turned to look at him.
"I'm Jacob." He blurted. I felt a tingle run up my arm where he touched me and I pulled away from him and smiled.
"I'm Ellie. It's nice to meet you." I turned back to the cashier and tucked my hair back behind my ear.
"Your new to town right?" He asked. I nodded and looked back over my shoulder.
"Uh, yeah I moved to Forks from Seattle." I told him and he frowned a bit.
"Why are you grocery shopping in La Push?" He asked.
"I uh, kind of got turned around." I said looking at the ground as if it were the most interesting thing in the world. This guy was hot and I looked like the stupid girl who couldnt even find her way around a small town. Great. Just fucking great.
"Really? You must live on the outskirts of town." He commented. I nodded and was ready to smack myself. What was wrong with me? I felt flustered, I never feel flustered. I was a damn flirt and now I couldn't spit out a decent phrase to save my life.
I watched as the guy continued to ring me up and prayed this torture would end soon.
Jacob's POV
I looked down at my imprint still amazed that this had actually happened. Just earlier today I had been bitching about Bella and right now she was the last thing on my mind. Ellie was beautiful. She had long dark brown hair with just the lightest tint of red in it and it flowed down to her midback. She looked up at me and smiled a blush creeping on her cheeks and I couldn't help but gaze down at her pink plump lips as she bit her bottom lip. She tucked her hair behind her ear and I looked up into her stunning eyes. They were unlike any I had ever seen. One was a bright blue and the other was like a hazel green.
I looked over about to tell Paul and Embry to leave when I noticed they were both checking out her ass as she turned back around to talk to the cashier who had asked her a question. I elbowed both of them in the stomach and they grunted. "Get lost!" I whisper-yelled.
"Why? I think she's my type." Paul smirked. I turned on him and barely contained the snarl that ripped through my throat. Paul looked at me shocked and his brow furrowed until he studied me and then looked at me shocked. "Did you...?" He left the end of the question but I knew what he meant. Just thinking about the fact that I ended up imprinting on this beautiful girl made me start to smile and he choked on his breath. "You did!" He laughed.
Embry groaned and stomped his foot like a child, "That's not fair she's too hot for you." Ellie turned around and looked at us curiously and I shoved Embry.
"She is not!" I retorted with a snort.
"I'm not hot?" She asked and looked up at me with pursed lips and an arched brow. She crossed her arms over her chest and I looked down at her impressive chest before she cleared her throat. "My eyes are up here." She informed me.
"I didn't mean that." I told her quickly and started to stumble out words that honestly made no sense together when I noticed she was smiling and I stopped and glared at her. She was toying with me. "Ha ha real funny." I released sardonically.
"I thought so." She quipped. She turned and started loading the rest of her buggie and I checked out her ass as she bent down and put the sodas at the bottom of cart. She stood slowly and grabbed the last of the groceries before she started to head outside and I jogged to catch up to her.
"So you're new around these parts." I began. "I was thinking I could show you around. You could think of me as your friendly tour guide." I smirked leaning close to her. She walked over to her Land Rover and I looked at the car impressed.
"You know, I would say that sounds nice but I don't know you very well." She told me looking at me uncertainly.
"Yes, well that's how you make friends you know? Getting to know other people." I told her slowly. She glared at me and gave me the bird and I laughed.
"I guess you could show me around." She smiled and grabbed my hand. I felt my heart speed up and I swallowed as she reached into her purse and pulled out a pen and wrote down her number on my hand. "Just call me sometime and we can arrange that tour guide you've promised me." I smiled down at her and nodded and we both went into a comfortable silence as I helped her get the groceries into the car.
As we finished up she smiled and closed her trunk. "Can you give me directions back into town?" She asked timidly rubbing the back of her neck and I chuckled telling her where to go.
I watched as she pulled off and turned around to see the guys staring at me.
"You called the pack?" I shook my head exasperated and Embry shrugged.
"Dude I never thought you would imprint. I had resigned myself to having to hear you bitching about Bella for the rest of my life." Embry explained. I sighed and shook my head as the guys started hooting and bombarding me with questions.
"What's she like?"
"Is she pretty?"
"Did you get her number?"
"Where is she from?"
I rubbed my temples already dreading the rest of the night. They were not going to leave me alone on this one. "I don't know most those answers but I can tell you the girl was pretty. I don't know how Jacob got her. I mean Bella was like a eight and that was a wonder this girl was easily a ten and she looked alive. No leech stench clinging to her either." Paul said. I shot him glare and he shrugged rolling his eyes. "You know Im right." He said in a sing song voice and I threw him my best douche glare.
Honestly, I couldn't trust Bella anymore and we had our differences but I wasn't ready to fully cut her out of my life and I knew that. I groaned inwardly at the thought that I'd have to probably deal with that sometime soon.
I also would probably be able to see Ellie soon too which was what I really wanted. I fought a smile and failed miserably as I thought of her again. I didn't know how long I should wait to call her but I doubted I would last past tomorrow. I wanted to call her now but I knew that would seem kind of forceful. I toyed with my phone and shoved it into my pocket. Things were finally looking up. Ellie was my new start and I needed a new start.
