It was a cloudy day as I brought in the last box from the old pickup my dad brought me in. My Dad's name is Jonathan. He's a real estate manager, so he's always moving. He decided he's leave me here, in Forks, for the school year so that I wouldn't have to keep moving with him.

"Bye, Dad," I called out,

"I'll call you soon," He grinned, his brown eyes shining, and he drove up the dusty path.

I ran back inside as it started to drizzle, sitting down at the kitchen table,

"Hey, honey!" Mom called, entering the room.

I got up to hug her, smiling back,

"Hi, Mom,"

We ate lunch, catching up on what had happened in the last few months. You see, my mom and dad got divorced when I was barely six months old, so I'm with my dad for the school year every other year. It was an odd year, so my mom had me until the end of June. Then my Dad would whisk me away for an on-the-go year consisting of mainly TV Dinners, the open road, and a lot of moving around.

I also had a half-brother, Seth. Sue had been married before, you see. They'd had Seth and Leah two years before the split. She and her first ex, Harry, still had a very friendly, almost family-like relationship, you see, but they just weren't meant to be.

Mom got married just six months later to my father, and had me. Then blah, blah, blah, you know the story.

So anyways, we finished eating and I went to unpack. There wasn't a lot to do though. I didn't have a lot of stuff because I was always moving, and it would be a hassle to have eighteen boxes to carry around with me anyways.

The next day I woke up around eight, and got dressed. After a quick breakfast, I decided to head out to find Seth. Even though Seth and I weren't exactly brothers, we were close as they can be. I went up the rez- Yes, I live on a reservation; LaPush, to be exact- to Jacob, Seth's friend's house, where he was sleeping over.

I let myself in- Billy was out fishing- and went to his room.

"Rise and shine, my friend," I said to the sleeping heap on the floor,

"Unghsephasnd…" Seth muttered from under the covers,

"It's me, you know, Vince?"

His head popped up from the covers.

"You're here early!" He said,

"And you're here sleeping!" I mimicked,

He slowly got up, yawning. He'd grown a lot since I'd last seen him- at least a foot, and his biceps were huge.

"So how've you been, little bro?" he laughed, giving me a noogie.

"Good… Rragh!" I grinned, wrestling him.

"You can't beat me!" He shouted.

"We'll," I gasped, "See!"

After ten more minutes of roughhousing we finally sat down, laughing.

"So… where's Jake?" I asked,

"He's with the Cull- aw krap…" He facepalmed,

"Who?"

"No one," He stumbled over his words,

"Who?" I pressed,

Seth sighed, "I'll tell you later. Let's go find Mom."

We walked home, finding Sue watching TV.

"Hey," Seth said, sitting at the kitchen table,

"Hi, honey," she smiled,

We watched some TV and sat down for lunch. My stomach growled- I was really hungry. She set out a huge pile of hot dogs- enough for my whole class at Forks Middle to eat- and we ate. I was inhaling them like a vacuum. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Seth look tentatively at Mom.

After we all ate, my mom asked if we could run and get some groceries. Being the loving sons we were, we said okay, and headed out for the store.

Too bad I didn't know that a carton of eggs could turn my life upside down.
