Seth's POV:
I didn't know why I was the one voted to go pick up the groceries, but I was. I guess it was because I'm one of the youngest in the group, and I couldn't say no to Emily, she does make all the food for us. I walked into the small, and usually quiet store in La Push, the elderly man at the cash register waved at me as I entered, I waved back, and walked to the aisle in the back that had all the meat products set out. Emily wanted to cook hamburgers tonight for the pack's bonfire, and of course, we had to have a lot.
Astoria's POV:
"Story! You're supposed to be a ninja! Ninja's do not knock over cans!" My best friend yelled at me in a hushed tone, I looked over at her; she was crouched down behind a shelf of Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup. I felt my face grow hot—I blush easily….it's a curse I tell you—especially when you have pale skin, like me. "Like you're doing much better!" I retorted to my brown haired friend, she rolled her bright emerald green eyes at me, "oh please, I'm doing way better than you! You know if we were actually ninja's, you're ass would be dead" Aislinn said standing from her hiding spot, and rushing over to where I was crouched down beside an aisle of various soups. "Let's go over to the next aisle, there are no cans you can knock over there, just a bunch of cracker boxes" she said.
I rolled my eyes, "that's not much better" I stated but I followed her, we were walking in a crouch, with our "weapons" in our hands. Aislinn had the idea that we use bananas as weapons, and if we get caught, we can throw them at the unfortunate employee, and run out of the store. See, this is what you get, on a Saturday, with two, bored out of their mind teenage girls. Aislinn came over, to get away from her annoying brother, and my parents—of course, weren't home, and we didn't feel like sitting around, and watching TV….again. Living in La Push, didn't give us a lot of options on stuff to do, and we couldn't drive yet, so we were stuck trying to find something to entertain ourselves with. My parents are always away on business trips, and they usually leave a large amount of "emergency money" for me, but most of the time, I use on useless things, like candy. Like today, we were loaded with cash, and bored out of our minds.
Aislinn muttered a swear word, and bent down to tie her bright, hot pink converse with bright, neon green laces. I stepped in front of her, and turned the corner onto the cracker box aisle. I was looking down mostly, and wasn't watching where I was going. Being the klutz I am, I didn't notice the person in front of me, and being me, I just so happened to run into them, and caused myself to fall backwards. I fell flat on my ass, and I looked up to see who I ran into, and who was about to face the wrath of Aislinn.
Seth's POV:
I barely felt a person bump into me, it barely felt like anything, but then I heard the sound of someone falling backwards. I felt bad, since I'm a werewolf, I wasn't affected, and I looked down to see if they were okay. At first, I just saw a person sprawled out on the floor; all I could see was black hair, and then the person looked up, and I met bright sapphire blue eyes. I felt my eyes widen, and like I was no longer standing in the store, I felt like I was floating or something. It was the strangest feeling I've ever felt, but I liked it; the feeling made me want to snatch the girl off the floor, hold her close, and never let go. I sadly, had to restrain myself from doing so because I'm sure it would freak her out. That's when I heard the sound of hysterical laughter, and our gaze broke.
I looked up to see a girl, about the same age as the girl on the floor, except, she had dark chocolate brown, long curly, hair, emerald green eyes, and she was tanner than her friend on the floor. She was laughing, and holding her stomach while hunched over, and using an aisle for support. "Way to go dumbass!" She yelled through her fits of laughter, "Shut up bitch! You could be useful, and help me up!" The girl on the floor yelled as she picked herself up off the floor, when she stood up, I noted that she came nowhere near to as tall as I was. My guess was she was about 5' 8" and even though that's taller than most girls, she was still short compared to my height—then again; most people aren't taller than me. The girl looked at me, and I noticed that her face was really red from embarrassment, "Sorry, I didn't mean to run into you" she said quietly, I shook my head, "It's fine, you're the one that was knocked to the floor" I said. We continued to just stare at each other.
"Well, are you going to just stand there, and stare at each other, or, what?" The brown haired girl said causing the black haired one to turn, and glare at her. She just laughed, and walked up to her, and threw on arm around her, "You know, glaring is bad for eye sight" she stated causing the black haired girl to flip her off, "I'm sorry, I'm straight" she said. I tried to not laugh, but it wasn't working out very well. "Aislinn, I swear, if Charlie doesn't kill you, it's going to be me" the black haired girl said to the girl, Aislinn. Aislinn just laughed, "Story, it's not like I haven't heard that threat a million times before. If it didn't bother me then, it's not going to bother me now" Aislinn said smirking at her. Story? Who names their kid Story? "Excuse me, but what kind of name is 'Story'?" I asked and the two turned their attention to me, Aislinn just laughed, and Story glared at me. "It's a nickname, my actual name is Astoria, not that that's any of your business" she said coldly—ouch. "Ohhhh! Burn!" Aislinn yelled.
I gave her an apologetic look, "Sorry, I was just asking" I said and Story shrugged, "It's fine, it's not a big deal" she said. I smiled; but then, my cell phone rang, I mentally cursed, and took my phone out, and answered. "Hello?" I asked and I sighed hearing Quil's voice on the other end telling me to hurry, and get the hamburger meat home. I sighed and shut the phone, and looked to the two girls in front of me, "Sorry about that, but I have to get home….hey, a bunch of friends, and I, are having a bonfire tonight. It's going to be a lot of fun, we're going to be on First Beach and grilling out, and you should come" I said hoping Story would say yes. Story didn't look too happy, and opened her mouth to say something, but Aislinn quickly covered her mouth "Sure, we'll be there" she said much to Story's muffled protests. I laughed at the two, "Alright, see you later" I said turning to go purchase the hamburger meat I had been holding.
Astoria's POV:
As soon as the guy left, Aislinn removed her hand from my mouth, and I turned glaring daggers at her. She laughed, "Why on Earth did you do that?" I asked a bit too loudly, Aislinn gave me an innocent look, "Do what?" She asked. I had to hold back the urge to strangle her. "You know exactly what you did, why'd you tell that guy we would come?" I asked her, she shrugged her shoulders, "It sounded like it would be fun, and he was cute" she answered. "For one thing, I'm a freaking vegetarian! They're going to be grilling out! I hate even smelling meat. Also we don't even know who he is, he could be a creeper or something" I said crossing my arms over my chest. Aislinn snorted and rolled her eyes, "Okay so we'll take Jasmine with us, and if they turn out to be creepers, we can use her for a shield" Aislinn said. "That doesn't solve the meat problem" I said "so we'll arrive late, after they should be done eating! We can always blame it on Jasmine" Aislinn said. I sighed, frustrated, I felt that urge to strangle her again, "Whatever! Call Jasmine and ask her if she wants to come" I said. "HA! I win! As always!" Aislinn cheered pulling out her phone, and calling Jasmine. What have I gotten myself into?
So that was chapter one!
I'm sorry if it was too short, I didn't want to write much more because I figured if I wrote more I'd begin to ramble.
Review!
