"An Indian reservation?" I asked my dad as we got out of the black Saturn.
"What? You said you wanted to live someplace small." I rolled my eyes at his answer.
"Small, not microscopic. Jeez, there are only like 300 people in the Forks place and maybe, if we're lucky, like 50 people at this place." I said with a sigh, looking around at the woods, grey sky and a house nestled on the edge of some beach. It's not that it wasn't bad, it just wasn't home. We haven't had a home in 5 years. Ever since my mother died, we move all around the country, finding the oddest and most out of the way places. We picked this place cause we both loved the rain and the beach.
"Okay, you know the deal. After one year if we don't like it we will be on our way again." I smirked and grabbed my book bag as he said this, walking up to the house.
"Wow…. Could use a little work huh?" I asked as I stood in the doorway, looking at the wallpaper peeling off, the wood floors cracked, cobwebs and the air was musty.
"Yeah, I got it for a deal. Mr. Black said that his son would come over to help clean the place up tomorrow." He said walked past me.
"Great. Some random dude is gonna be douching around the house." I muttered.
"Can you at least try to be nice to some boys? Not in the near future, but I would like to see some grandkids." He said and I laughed, pushing his arm.
"Not my style, you know that." He smirked as I said this and I rolled my eyes, groaning. "I'm not gay either! I just-"
"Yeah, yeah I know. You just want to live your life." We both smiled at each other. I loved my dad. I looked like my mom, but am a female version of my father. Whilst I am long and lean, he is about 5"8' and has a pot belly thing going on. I have long, brown hair, him short grey hair. I am tan, have a lip ring and tattoo, he is white, and has no markings ion him. He has bright brown eyes, whilst I have dark brown ones. We were both sarcastic, street smart and knew how to get things done. Without him, I don't know what would happen.
"Well, you better be nice tonight 'cause we are going over to their house tonight for a bonfire." he said as he put down his bag and went back to the car. I followed after him, sighing.
"Why?" I asked as he threw one air mattress at me as he grabbed the other.
"Because they invited us. The whole tribe will be there and they are more then happy to welcome us here." He said, making me roll my eyes.
"Tribe? Bonfire? They live in tents and praise buffalo too?"
"Only on Tuesdays." A sudden voice said, making me jump and turn around to see some guy in jeans and a black shirt walk into the house. He was tall, perfectly tan with spiked up black hair and a perfect smiling with shining white teeth. I was momentarily surprised at how beautiful he is, with delicious muscles and a smile that made me want to melt. As I looked into his dark, deep brown eyes, it was like something clicked. He paused half way to us, whole body tense as his eyes bored into mine. Once I got control of my body again, I smirked, making his eyes go a little wide.
"Good thing it's Saturday then." I contoured, making his smile widen as he started to walk up to us again. Once we was a couple of feet away, his side to me as he stood in front of my father, holding his strong arm out.
"Hi, I'm Jacob Black. You must be Mr. Cryptic." He said in the richest voice I had ever heard, his intense body heat wrapping around me like a blanket.
"Yes I am, but you can just call me Rick." my father said as they shook hands, Jacobs arm tensing in satisfying ways. He turned to me then, me noticing how he is the perfect height. His smile became infectious as I couldn't help but smile back as he held his hand out to me.
"And you are?" He said, almost seductively. At least it sounded that way to me.
"Lorelei." I said, and I could have sworn he shivered as I said this, shaking his very, very warm hand. His grip was strong, and I felt perfect being in contact with his calloused skin.
"That's a very unique name." He said with a cute little laugh. What was this boy doing to me?
"That's a easy way of saying that it's lame." I said with a smirk, only to have him raise an eyebrow.
"No, I actually think it's quite nice." There was a moment where we just stared at each other, before my dad broke the silence.
"So, what are you doing in our neck of the woods?" He asked, and Jacob looked over to my father.
"My dad wanted me to come by and give you our address so you can come on by to the party tonight." He looked back to me, biting his lip and sending tendrils all along my body. "That is if you are coming." he paused and looked back over to my dad. "Which you should. It would be a good chance to meet everyone around. Plus there's always really great food." I smiled at this, thinking all men were the same.
"Well, it sounded like my daughter here really didn't want to-""I never said that!" I snapped, only wincing and looking away as I relished what I said. "What I mean is, I think it sounds like fun. I mean, better then staying in this musty ass house." Jacob's smile was radiant.
"Great! I see you tonight then." with that he gave my dad the directions and left.
"So, what was that about?" My dad asked, making my brows come together.
"What are you talking about?" I asked and he smirked.
"What was that going on between you and lover boy?" He asked with a smirk and raised eyebrows.
"Hey, just being nice like you said." He nodded his head muttering 'sure' as he turned around and went upstairs. I looked to where Jacob left at, and sighed. That was….New.
