SONG: Falling Over Me by Demi Lovato


[DAY ONE]

Alex Russo was bored.

No, bored wasn't the right word. She was uninterested, inattentive, sick and tired, spiritless…

It was summer and she was stuck at the Waverly Sub Station waiting for someone to take an order. Tuesday, 4:15— there was barley anyone in the shop. It was too late for lunch and too early for dinner. Usually at this time, everyone was out…but no… her parents had grounded her and now she had to work more hours at the shop. It was ridiculous, she hadn't done anything bad. Well she guessed it all depend on one's definition of bad…

"Waitress, we need another coke!" someone called to her.

Annoyed, she sighed, "Coming!"


Jacob Black knew it was wrong.

He shouldn't have.

But he already did.

He was already in New York City.

He tried to live his life as a werewolf, to reduce the pain of being a human, but that plan had failed so the only other option was to run away. He knew it was very silly. Very silly and very stupid and very immature but he couldn't take it. He couldn't take the emotions and the whole baggage that came with it.

He couldn't face himself when they find out—when the pack finds out, when Bella and Edward find out.

They would be ready to kill him again.

Jake sighed as he turned a corner to a small but lively street. All he needed right now was food and sleep. He never knew that he would be able to run across the country by paw in less than six days, either. He surprised himself but that was great. The more time he got to his location, the more time he would prepare himself to whatever punishment Bella and Edward would give him. He started thinking about them…about Forks.

What were they doing right now? Looking for him? Or did the find out already and was ready to get a plane and fly here in time.

Jake shook his head and walked to a vendor selling I Love New YorkT-Shirts on the sidewalk. He debated whether he should steal it or not, but realizing stealing meant bad morals, he decided to pay. He dug through his pockets, and found some money.

Before the vendor could say anything, Jake walked away, heading into a random restaurant.

Just eat, Jake. Just eat and your mind will clear up and then you can decide on what to do.

He sped-walked to the counter, where a waitress behind it was laughing obnoxiously at some text. He ignored her and cleared his throat.

The girl didn't seem to notice him.

Jake growled. He tilted his head to read her name tag, "Miss Alex Russo, can I have your attention please?"

That did it, finally. Jake thought as she looked up to him. At first, her facial expressions seemed to define annoyance but soon it was replaced by warmth.

"I'm sorry," she laughed, "What can I get you?"

"Five subs and a coke or something," He muttered and dug through his pockets. Shit, I only have 50 bucks left.

The longest three minutes passed and Jake began scuffing everything down his mouth. Nothing ever seemed this delicious to him.

"Wow," Alex laughed, "someone's hungry?"

Jake ignored her and took a long sip of his coke. Before long, he was eating the other sub.

"Are you from around here?" Alex asked, trying to make small talk. He looked up and met her eyes for the first time—she was actually very pretty—and sighed inaudibly, how would he say it? If he said he was lost, would she ask her parents to make room for him to stay for the night? Jake debated as he thought over his words, but then he just decided to stick to the truth.

"I—"

"Alex!" someone cried her name. A small boy with curly hair came down from the spiral stairs towards Jake's right, and ran towards her.

"What, Max?" She sounded, annoyed as she put her hands on her hips.

Jake tried to hide his smile. It sounded like him and his sisters in the old days. Jake watched them talk as he took another bite of his sub.

"Dad wants you—something occurred," he said, accenting the last words and eyed Jake.

Jake raised an eyebrow, "Why are you looking at me like that…?"

The kid shrugged, "See yahhh," he said and ran back up the stairs.

"I'm sorry," she apologized, "that's my brother, Max."

Jake shrugged, "Don't apologize. It reminds me of me when I was little…" in those ancient times that seemed to be forgotten. Rebecca seemed so far away…and Rachel was with Paul…His head hurt. He wondered if he would lose another family member when they find out about his lies…

"Alright, hold on," Alex said and followed his brother up the stairs.

Jake finished his food and sighed once more.

What am I doing here? Where should I stay? I guess I'll just go sleep in Central Park or something. And with that thought, he threw a small tip on top of his tray and left the scene.

He'll be back tomorrow…maybe.

"OH my God, Harper!" Alex shrieked, "he was sooo hot."

Harper watched her friend pick up the left over plates from each of the table. They were ready to close up the shop.

"How come it's always you meeting all the hot guys. I mean Justin and then there's—"

"Eww, Harper, Justin is nothot. SO not. I mean you should've seen him—ugh I don't even know his name, but he was amazing. And because of stupid Max, I had to go upstairs and he left. He did, though, give me a huge tip," she smiled at her, "Anyways, I think he was running or something—he came in sweating with a t-shirt and shorts. Reallyy hot."

"Okay, okay. Stop gloating," Harper folded her arms and pouted.

Alex laughed and went to the kitchen, "Fine, fine," She came back out and again and put her smock into the closet, "So you're coming to my art exhibit tomorrow right?"

Harper nodded, "Of course, best friend! And after that, we can go shopping for matching ducky shirts, right?" Harper became happy, again, just like that.

Alex rolled her eyes, "Sure," and they headed to her room.
