Head In The Clouds
[03]
As morning broke out in LaPush it was a cloudy gray morning. As I was setting up my TV I heard the doorbell ring. No one was up except for me so I went to go answer it.
Nina stood in the doorway with a smile. She must be planning something. "The sun is gonna break through the clouds around noon today. Would you like to come with me to the cliff later?" Nina asked. Why would Nina of all people want to hang out with me on such a boring day? "Uh sure" I answered.
I let Nina enter the house and walk around for a bit while I worked on the TV in the living room. "I see you have a fetish for electronics Alan." Nina said. I was concentrating on the TV so I didn't answer her. I heard Nina sit down on the couch as well as Emily coming down the stairs. "Alan make breakfast for me please." Emily demanded. "Yes ma'am." I answered.
I finished the TV and headed for the kitchen. I decided to make Emily a big breakfast so she wouldn't complain about it later. I mad 2 sets of eggs and 3 things of toast. "Come and get it." I called Emily.
Just then Nina entered the kitchen while Emily ate her breakfast and looked around the room. She seemed to be wondering about something, but I didn't bother her. Suddenly Jacob, Quil, and Embry barged through the front door.
"Where's the food at?" Quil asked. "In the kitchen guys" Nina called to them. Jacob, Quil, and Embry entered the kitchen and had looks like they were starving. "Oh, Nina, you're here." Jacob said. "Yup, Alan and I are going to the cliff later when the sun peeks through." Nina replied.
I made breakfast for everyone when my parents woke up. I probably will need to go shopping later today because the food was almost gone. When Jacob, Quil, and Embry left the clouds started parting and the sun came through. "Time to go Alan" Nina told me. "Right" I replied.
It was actually pretty warm outside so I decided to wear some shorts. When Nina and I walked outside it felt like it had to be at least 70 degrees outside. I liked it being warm, it was much better than Canada.
Nina wore summer clothing too, but it didn't surprise me. She's lived here longer than I have to know what the weather will be like. What really caught my attention was that the sun was reflecting off of Nina's skin. I was confused. There was nothing brighter than the sun, but here I am witnessing the brightest thing alive.
Nina and I were nothing, but friends so the beautiful human that stood in front of me couldn't possibly belong to me some day. We'd only be friends, nothing more and nothing less.
Once we reached First Beach we walked over to the cliff and started making our way up the cliff. It took maybe 5 minutes tops to get to the top of the cliff. We sat in the usual sun patched area that was in the little clearing of the cliff. It was always very peaceful here so I was immediately able to clear my thoughts. Nothing could bother me now.
I thought about everything that had happened since I moved here to LaPush. I remember looking out over the ocean and unloading Ricky's truck. I remember meeting Nina for the very first time. I remember playing King of First Beach with Jacob, Quil, Embry, and Sam. I remember playing a joke on Emily and having everyone laughing. I remember the bonfire and how we sang, and danced, and had nothing, but a good time. I remember everything. I had nothing, but fun memories here in LaPush, Washington.
Nina and I spent around 30 minutes on the cliff until the clouds started rolling back in and the rain started to pour. Nina and I raced back to the house and got inside with dripping wet clothes. The whole pack must have been there and when Nina and I arrived they all just started laughing. Emily took Nina to her room to get drier clothes while I went to my room to pick out drier clothes to wear.
It got close to lunch time so I prepared an amazing lunch for the whole pack. I was lucky to have enough food for lunch. I decided to go out shopping and of course Nina came along. She seemed to follow me everywhere and helped me pick out some favorites of the pack. She helped me a lot.
When we got home I resupplied the refrigerator and then Nina and I joined the pack in playing a game of football outside. Even though it was still raining outside it was fun to slip and slide every now and then. I don't think I've ever seen Nina laugh so hard then when Jacob slipped and ran into the house. Luckily there weren't any damages.
Please Review! And you know the rest of the drill! XD
