Disclaimer: I do not own Twilight or any of its characters.
It has been a long 4 years since I have lived in La Push. When I was 12 my family moved away to California for dad's job. It was a big change, because I've always loved the rain. Now everything has changed mom and dad are dead and me and my little brother Oliver have to move back to La Push to live with a close aunt. I'm going to try to start over and make a change in my life.
Right now I'm looking at my reflection in a near by mirror. Dad had always said that I looked exactly like mom when she was my age. We did look alike because I had her medium brown hair and her smile. Both of my parents were Quileute so that means I had a dark skin color. The only thing that I really had from my father was his emerald green eyes, but right now I wasn't consentating on my fitures I was looking at the long cuts and bruises that I had on my stomah, right leg ,shoulders and back.
I looked away to keep from crying. I heard a wimper from my bed. It was Jeremy my border collie he could always tell when I was in pain or was about to cry. I walked over to him and rested my hand on his head. He looked up at me and closed his eyes. I decided to do the same and curled up in a ball. He snuggled up to me and fell asleep.
I tried not to think about the cuts but they hurt so bad. I also tried not to think of mom and dad but the memory of them was too fresh. I closed my eyes and tried to calm my self down as the tears fell from my eyes. I just had to think of something that made me happy.
I choose to go with an old memory of when I lived in La Push and it was me ,Embry, Quil, and Jaocb my old friends I missed them so much. We were about 10 and were roaming the beach when we heard a quiet wimper. We looked around and swimming in the cold water was a puppy. We took it out and dried it with a towel. Embry already knew he couldn't keep it and when Jake and Quil asked there parents and had said had said no it was up to me. Oliver was only 8 and we had always wanted a dog so we got to keep it. We named it Jamie at first but the next year we figured out it was a boy soo the closest thing to Jamie was Jeremy.
I chuckled at the old memory and thought 'In a few days mom and dads funeral will be over and we will be on our way to Washington.' I sighed and decided to get some sleep.
A few days later
Mom and dads funeral was so peaceful. Oliver has been dead quiet ever sine not talking unless needed. I walked over to his room and sat on the end of his bed where he layed. He stared at me for a while until I broke the silene. "How ya doin?" He looked away and said "fine".
I sighed "is that all your going to say to me?" I said calmly. He just nodded. "Tomarrow we are ging to La Push again . I know you loved it there." Tears were running down his eyes. "I did when mom and dad were there with us." He wipped away the tears with his shirts sleeve. "Do you want to talk about it?" I said with careful eyes. He shook his head. I sigh "ok maybe another time." I got up and walk to the door. "Heather",he said. "yeah"
"if we talk about this its between me and you ,right?" I nodded and walked over to him and put my arm around his sholder and let him cry on my t-shirt. We stayed like that and talk about it all night until we fell asleep.
We woke up and got ready to go. I decided to wear a green tank top , some dark skinny jeans, my convers and a jacket. The last thing was my mothers old locket that she gave me a while back before she died. It had a picture of our family inluding Jeremy. We headed out to the airport and took the long trip to Washington.
At the airport
I woke up from the long trip in a daze. There was my aunt and my cousin, makenzi she was my age and she was one of my best friends. They were holding a sigh that's said 'Heather & Oliver Blake" We walked over to them and Makenzi attach me with a hug. "hey mg" I called her that since we were little it was because here first anitional was M for makenzi and her last name anitional was G for generous."Hey it's been along time, hey Oliver." She then attach him with a hug. He smiled "hey Makenzi." I could tell he was better after he told me about how he felt about mom and dad dieing. She messes up his black shaggy hair and then aunt Amanda gave us our greetings. "I know you feel bad about your parents death but I promise everything will be fine."
We nodded and gave a fake smile I could tell Oliver was sad inside too. She grab our bags and put them in the truck. After a while of driving we passes by a sigh that said 'welcome to La Push'. We got out and walked to a small 2 story white house. It was absolutley aborable. "Makenzi show them to there rooms please." aunt Amanda asked. She showed me my room first it was clean and white ande there was 2 doors in the back I walked over to them and opened.
It was a balcony I could see First beach from there I smiled "Im gonna go for a walk." I said as I rushed past mg "ok be back before supper " she called out "ok." I walked all the to First Beach I layed down and shut my eyes it felt like a hour but was only 10 minutes later that I heard someone yell at me." It's gonna rain soon ya know you should get inside." I opened my eyes and looked at the person. "Quil?"I said rubbing my eyes to make sure my eyes were correct. "Heather is that you?" He had a bid dorky smile on his face. I stood up and smiled at him. "Did ja miss me?" He ran up to me and crushed me with a hug "Hell yeah"
"Quil" I said almost out of breath and my cuts feel like there about to open.He was extremley warm but he looked fine. "I cant. Breath." He set me down and chuckled . I wanted to check my cuts but I couldn't let any body see them.
"When did you get back" he said. "When did you get so tall and like 10 miuntes ago" he smiled. "Why are you back?" I hesitanded "Mom and dad died so im living with Amanda and Makenzi."It was just a whisper. He was shocked "Oh I didn't know Im so sorry" I pretended to smile " Its alright I mean everyone has to die at some point." My smile didn't work he was frowning. Then I felt a drop hit my head 'rain'. "Come on lets go see Embry" I noded and followed him to another small house. It was just as adorable as Aunt Amanda's. "This is Sams and Emilys house we hang here." We walked in to a whole house of people who looked just like Quil. "Hey everyone this is Heather an old friend" They all looked at me and said 'hey'. "Hey" I said. Then out of no where something warm had me constricted. It felt just like when Quil hugged me." Hey Heather"said a very happy Embry. "Embry!" I stuggled to get out of his arms one so my cuts wouldn't open and two so I could hug him better. "Man is everyone here tall." They all laughed. "I missed you so much" he chuckled out. Then I looked around and Jake wasn't there. "Embry, wheres Jake?" They all looked down at there feet. "He's he's …..way or a while." I noded "ok" I knew there was something wrongbut I would save it or later.
