Ugh. I didn't want to wake up that morning, for two reasons.

Number one: We were packing up our stuff today and moving it into the van.

Number two: Bella was coming over to help us do it.

Charlie and my mom thought it would be great if Bella and I took some time to get to know each other. Which was stupid. I would have way to much time to do that in the near future.

It had been summer vacation for a week, so I had about two more months of summer left. I had a feeling I was going to be miserable during it. There was a knock on my door.

"It's Bella."

I sighed.

"Come in."

She came in and sat down. I gave her a dirty look.

"Look, Leah, I know your not happy about this. But I'm not either. We should make the best of it."

There she was again, being the responsible one. She was always like that. I had been the opposite of that my whole life. I'm known for going overboard with things, being overly un-shy, speaking my mind at all the wrong times, and , of course, getting my into trouble for doing things I wasn't suppose to. That's why me and Mrs. Goody-two-shoes never got along.

"Sure. " I said. I went in the hallway and brought in a bunch of cardboard boxes. "I guess we should start."

"Alright." she said, obviously trying to act like everything was fine. We started folding my clothes first.

"So,this was a surprise, wasn't it? One night I'm sitting at home like usual, the next I find out my mom and your dad are getting married, and that were moving into a house together." I said.

"Yeah." she agreed. "But it will only be for a couple of years. Were both 17, we'll move out someday."

A couple of years? A couple of hours with this girl was torture, I thought.

"Must suck for you, though. Your going to be stepsisters with freaky werewolf girl now. And Seth."

"I don't think your freaky, Leah. I date a vampire, remember?"

Oh yeah. That brought up my next question.

"So I guess I'm going to see alot of that bloodsucker in my- I mean our house- right?"

"Right." She said. , ignoring my 'bloodsucker' comment. "Speaking of boyfriends," she picked up a picture of me and Jake off my desk. " How are you guys doing?"

"Fine." I said.

"That's good."

She was annoying when she wasn't even trying.

"You should invite Jake over. I haven't seen him in like, a month." I had always had a slight problem with the fact that my boyfriend and Bella were best friends. It made me uncomfortable. But, it would be nice to see him. It might break some of the awkward-ness if he were here.

"Ok." I agreed. I called him and he agreed to come over. He came in about 10 minutes later.

"Hey you two." He said, smiling. Bella got up and they hugged. It was just a hug, I had to tell myself.

He sat down next to me. Him and Bella started catching up on how things had been the past month.

I had always been the jealous type. Today was no exception.

She fluttered her eyebrows. "I've really missed you, Jake." She said it in a slightly questionable tone. I was not liking this.

"I've missed you too, Bella."

I felt like I was going to cry. Life sucked. My mom was replacing my dad by marrying Bella Swan's dad. I would have to live with them. We were moving. Now that brat was acting like she was going to seduce my boyfriend.

"I'm going to miss you even more when you go to Hawaii for the summer. I'll miss you loads."

What was she talking about?! Hawaii?

Jake looked regretful that Bella had said anything. Bella looked like she was sorry for her mistake.

"Jake?! Hawaii? For the summer?!" I asked.

He sighed. "Can we take a walk, Leah?"

"If you explain to me whats going on."

"Okay."

"I'll keep packing." Bella said.

We walked to the beach. Finally I looked up at him.

"Hawaii, Jake? What's she talking about?"

"I was going to tell you today, Leah, honestly. You know I don't keep things from you." He looked apprehensive. "Well, my dad wants me to spend the summer with Rebbecca and her husband in Hawaii this summer.I don't want to go. I want to stay here with you. But he's forcing me."

"You can't leave me now! I need you more now than ever." I said.

He took my hand as we kept walking.

"I'm leaving July 1st, and I'm coming back August 10th. I'll be back before you know it."

"That only gives us 11 days until you leave."

He sighed. "I know."

"My moms getting married to Charlie out of the blue. I'm moving. Now I can't even spend the summer with you." My voice was cracking.

He took my face in his hands. "Aw, Leah. I'll call you everyday, I swear. I'll think of you every second."

I tried to smile. "You swearyou won't fall in love with some Hawaiin surfer girl?"

He laughed. "I swear."

I knew he was telling the truth. It didn't ease my pain, though. Everything was going wrong.

"Why'd you tell her before me? Why is everyone telling Bella things before me?"

We sat down on the sand. "I didn't know how. And I didn't wanna see you sad." He smiled the most beautiful smile I had ever seen. He played with my hair, then my fingers. He massaged them lightly.

I tried to see the bright side in things. "It's only about a month and a half."

He pulled me close. "Only a month and a half." He repeated.

I sighed. "But I'm kinda pissed at you for abandoning me."

"Don't be pissed." Our faces were only 2 inches apart now.

That's when Quil, Embry, Seth, and basically the whole pack showed up.

"Yo Jake, you wanna play football?" Quil yelled.
Damn it Damn it Damn it! Why were we always interrupted?! The guys approached us. I only had 11 days left with him. I didn't care if the pack was watching. I pressed my lips to his. The guys started clapping and whistling.

"Way to go Jakeeee!" Paul yelled.
I pulled away, and laughed. He did too.
I looked at the guys. "Shut the hell up." I said.
"Feisty!" Paul said. They laughed. I nailed him in the stomach with the football. I looked at Jake and smiled.
"I have some major packing to do. Call me tonight."


When I got home, my mom and Bella were setting the table. Charlie was watching TV. They were staying for dinner. Fantastic. Seth came in the door a few minutes after me. He sat at the table.

"Mom, do you know what your daughter was doing on the beach?"

"Whats that honey?"

"She was making out with Jacob."

Bella snickered.

"Seth." I groaned.

My mom laughed. "You kissed Jacob on the beach, in front of everyone?'

"Mom, butt out!"

"It's cause she's in loove!" Seth sang. I kicked him under the table.

"Ow, Stop, Leah!"

"Stop being a little snitch, Seth!"

My mom tried to stop our argument by distracting me.

"Leah, could you put the forks on the dining room table?"

I looked at her, eyebrows raised.

"Since when do we eat in the dining room?" That just wasn't my family. Usually I would take my mac and cheese dinner up into my room, while Seth ate on the couch in the TV room, and my mom sat in the kitchen- that is, if she wasn't on a dinner date with Charlie.

"Were eating like a normal family tonight."

"Mom? The normal family ship sailed when your two kids became werewolves and caused your husbands sudden heart attack. Besides, they're not our family."

She looked at me sternly. "I said were eating like a normal family. And we will all be a family soon enough."

I snatched the forks off the counter top. Family soon enough. As far as I was concerned, my only family was my deceased father, my nosy mother, and my annoying little brother.

And I was stressed out enough tonight. I didn't need this crappy "family" night. I guessed it was my moms lame attempt to get us to "know each other". I knew enough already: Bella was possibly the most annoying girl alive and her "Chief Swan" father was boring as grass.

Speaking of Mr. Boring, that's when he came in and sat down.

"Hi Leah." He smiled. "Whats for dinner?"

I looked at him, a sarcastic smile on my face.

"I don't know. I'm not your waitress." My mom, Bella, and Seth came and sat down then. My mom looked like she wanted to rip my head off.

I sat down while Seth started blabbing about how the football game was.

After the small talk, my mom looked at Bella. "So, Bella, how is Edward?"

The subject made Bella smile. She was obsessed with that boy. It was sickening.

"He's good."

Charlie rolled his eyes. I guess there was one thing we had in common. We both hated that guy.

"So, Leah, how was your day?" Charlie asked.

"Fantastic," I said, extremely heavy on the sarcasm.

"Leah, why are you always so bitter?" Seth asked. Bella looked interested in the answer.

Well, no reason. My mom was not only ruining my life in so many ways, but my boyfriend was leaving me for the summer. No big.

"Bitter?" I asked, pretending to be shocked. "I'm never bitter! I'm the happiest little camper ever, Seth."
