Seth's P.O.V

I had my mouth full of food as I tried to hold back a laughter. Embry had just told the funniest joke ever and he knew that it would crack me up, he was messing with me.

"Are you ok, Seth? It looks like you're choking" he said and smirked. Asshole. I swallowed my food and threw a bottle cap at his head. He caught it though and chucked it back at me but missed and it fell in to my food.

"Aw great" I whined. Embry laughed at me and I wanted to smack him in the head. As much as I loved my pack, they annoyed me the most of the time. I was happy I got to sit with the older guys for a change though. They would never have noticed me before and I had just been a loser. We kept eating and Embry kept telling bad jokes, they weren't as funny as the first one though.

Suddenly I heard a tiny sneeze from someone at our table. It wasn't Kim though, and she was the only girl here, and it was definitely a girl's sneeze. I looked around and noticed a girl sitting at the end of our table. Huh, I didn't even know she was sitting there.

"Bless me" she muttered, and looked around at us. That's when I saw her eyes, and it was like someone had dumped a bucket of ice cold water over me. I felt like a bunch of invisible strings was attaching me to her and like she was the one thing keeping me down on earth. This one girl sitting at the end of the table was the reason for my whole existence. Holy mother of ducks, I just imprinted!

"Hi" I breathed and she looked a little confused at me. She was so beautiful. Her long black hair was in a braid that hung over her shoulder and her piercing green eyes looked in to mine.

"Err, hi?" she said, sounding uncertain. I must be acting weird, I thought. I was a total stranger to her. Was she new? I had never seen her before... All I wanted to do was to wrap her in my arms and protect her from the world. Keep her safe. That was my new main goal in life. Keeping my imprint safe.

I smiled at her as she spoke, and her voice was the most beautiful I had ever heard.

"Seth" Quil said and I snapped out of my daze. I hadn't even noticed that everyone had stopped eating and was now looking at me. "We better get going"

My heart dropped and I turned to look at my imprint. I didn't even know her name. I was just about to ask when she turned her head away and stood up. No, don't go! She started walking away from the table and I felt the urge to run after her. What if she slipped on the floor and hit her head? What if someone pushed her and she broke her arm? Oh my god I am crazy.

Crazy in love.

Evelyn's P.O.V

I was sitting in math class, trying to get rid of every thought of Seth Clearwater. Yeah, I knew his name now. When his friend had called him Seth, I had recognized him. It was Seth Clearwater. I didn't really know him, and we didn't have any classes together, but La Push is small and we had both lived here our whole life. He looked so different though. But hey, everyone went through puberty.

"Ms. Nichols" I snapped out of my thoughts and looked at the teacher. "The answer. Do you know it?" she said and sounded irritated. She must've called my name a hundred times, and besides, no teacher here liked me that much.

"No, sorry, I wasn't paying attention" I said honestly and she frowned. I heard a few giggles but ignored it. If someone wanted a punch in the face, I was the right person to irritate.

"How about you go to the principal's office? You've missed a lot lately and I bet he would love to have a little chat." she said and smiled sweetly at me. Ugh, stupid lady. I stood up.

"With pleasure" I answered and walked out of the classroom. I was so not going to the principal's office. I went to my locker and grabbed my stuff and then went outside to wait for school to end. I didn't have a car so I had to wait for my brother so that he could give me a ride. It was only like half an hour left anyway. As I was sitting on a bench outside of school I heard some guys talking.

"Seth, we're all happy for you, now the next step is to talk to her" one of the voices said. I heard a groan from one of the other guys.

"But I'm shy!" the voice said. Seth, probably. Who were they talking about? Did little Seth have a little crush? My heart stung as I thought about it. Oh no, it did not. I don't care about stupid Seth Clearwater. I stood up from the bench and started walking just to try and clear my stupid head. Everything was stupid.

"Hey Nichols!" someone yelled and I saw Brad Davis waving at me. I knew what he wanted of course, he could never be discrete.

"Brad" I said and gave him a short nod. He grabbed my hand like Chris had done earlier and then I put the money in my pocket.

"How are you doing?" I said, trying to sound like old friends, just in case someone was listening, since there were a few people around at the moment. I gave him a hug as I did so and slipped the small bag in his jeans pocket. As I let go I noticed someone watching us intently. Seth. He looked hurt and then he turned away and got in to his car. What was wrong with that guy?

"Well, see ya" Brad said and walked away. I saw my brother walking to his car so I ran to catch up with him.

This day had been weird in so many ways.

Not with a bang, but with a... bucket of ice cold water? Please review! xoxo
