Okay, so even if I didn't get any reviews (oh my gosh, that sounds so sad ) I am still going to write this chapter, cuz I like this story too much to wait for the viewers to review (come on people, get a move on!) So, here's the next chapter! Enjoy and REVIEW already!
Friday came too slowly. As we drove to the airport, my dad kept telling me that Billy Black (just Billy) was going to be picking me up and that he had a son named Jacob, who was going through a rough stage right now, and to be careful, don't talk to strangers, the nine yards.
The last thing he said before my flight number was called out was, "Please have fun here, ok? Don't do anything stupid, either." He wore a wry smile at the end of speech.
"No problem, Daddy. I'll be just fine," I grinned up at him and gave him a tight hug. "Love ya."
"Love you, too. Have fun now."
I hugged Nita next. "See you in a couple months, Neets. And be safe with Kit!" I earned a punch in the arm for that comment.
"I'll miss ya, too Runt. Now go." Nita gave me a little shove in the direction of the long line to get on the plane.
As I looked out the window of my seat on the plane, I waved goodbye to my dad and sister, silently praying that I wouldn't cause any problems in La Push.
OOOOOOO
The whole plane ride I didn't get any sleep at all. I looked like a zombie when I got off the plane at the Seattle airport. I looked around at my new surroundings, trying to get my bearings again. I trudged around the airport for a while, until I saw a sign that said Darine Callahan on it.
I smiled in spite of myself and walked over to the huge men that were holding it. When I said huge I meant huge! They looked like professional body-builders, for crying out loud!
I think I might like this place a lot better than I thought.
"It's spelled D-A-I-R-I-N-E. You missed the I." I spoke the first thing that came into my head, which wasn't very smart, considering they could crush me like a bug.
"Well, just our luck, we've got ourselves a smart-ass," one of the big guys said. He had the same cropped black hair and tallness that the other two did, I noted.
"Damn straight you do. What's your name?"
"What's yours?" he shot back.
"I asked you first. Besides; it's on the sign," I pointed out not-so-politely.
"Oh, she got you good, Paul!" the other guy next to him hooted.
"Shut up!" Paul shouted at them.
I tsked. "Temper, temper! You gotta watch that around me, Paulie. 'Cause I will eventually use it against you," I said leaning towards them.
He stared back at me half incredulous and half stunned. I smirked at him and turned to the others.
"Well, what are your names? I'm going to need to know the names of my escorts!" I playfully told them.
"I'm Embry, this is Jared and that's Paul," one of them said, smiling. I realized he had the cutest dimples when he smiled that you couldn't help but smile back to.
"Nice to meet you. Shall we go to the house, or do you plan to sleep at this dingy airport?"
"Right this way, Dairine," Embry chuckled.
I played along and did a small graceful curtsy. "Thank you, kind sir," I said in a British accent.
We made our way to the small but roomy truck that Embry owned and I sat in the trunk with my suitcases. I looked up to find all the guys staring at me. "What?" I asked them.
"Wouldn't you rather be in the truck? You know, like a normal city girl?" Paul asked me.
I was indignant. "No way! I am not a normal girl."
"You mean normal city girl," Jared corrected me, getting into the trunk beside me.
"Yeah, that's what I meant," I said, feeling my stomach drop. You need to be more careful! I can't believe I slipped like that! My mind screamed at me.
"How long will the ride take?" I asked Jared as the Truck pulled out of the parking lot.
"About an hour, or so." He told me after thinking it through. I nodded and decided to pull out Spot and play around on the Internet for the hour-long drive. Jared looked at Spot and said, "Dude, you have a laptop? That's cool they don't sell them in La Push, but we can go into Forks if we need to go and get some stuff, you know?"
I nodded and said, "You wanna watch me play Star Wars?" Yes, I still do play Star Wars; some things never change, I guess.
"You like Star Wars? I do, too," he said after I nodded.
"Cool." And so I began to play my game, making a new friend in the process.
I only hope that I'll fit in with everyone here in La Push. Well, we'll find out!
A/N: and you'll find out, too if you stinking review! But anyhoo, I hope you liked!
PLEASE REVIEW!
