So many bright lights to cast a shadow, but can I speak?

Well, is it hard understanding I'm incomplete?

A life that's so demanding, I get so weak

A love that's so demanding, I can't speak

Nikki POV

"Come on, I think dinner's ready," Nessie told me and pulled me off the couch towards the kitchen; I sat down at the table and waited for the boys to come in.

First to come in was Seth, he ran straight for the empty chair on my right and grinned wildly at me, I gave him a small smile back but turned down to my plate, feeling nervous.

Very close after him was Embry, the first thing he saw was the seat that Seth was sat in, I think I heard him growl but I couldn't have because normal people don't growl. But the people round here didn't seem very normal, first of all people kept disappearing and Nessie, well, she was nice and all but she was really smart and mature for a twelve year old. He then sat opposite me.

Jacob walked in then followed by Quil and Leah. Jake winked at me before sitting down next to Nessie and giving her a small hug.

Quil sat down next to Claire without a second glance to me and started to make her laugh, a look of joy seemed to fill his eyes whenever she screamed from laughter.

Leah sat down but kept cautiously glancing between Seth and Embry before giving a killer glare to me.

Billy then came in on his wheelchair and started setting assortments of food onto the table.

"Grab what you like, I didn't know what sorts of foods you liked Nikki, sorry." Billy sent me an apologetic look.

"This is fine thank you," I said quietly.

"So polite, maybe you could set a good example for Jacob," he winked at me.

I laughed, "It's not like you're any better," Jake mumbled.

"Enough of the back chat and start eating everybody!" Billy announced and suddenly all the guys, excluding Billy, and Leah starting inhaling all the food.

"Wow, you guys eat like wolves!" I accused. Then the whole table started laughing, some more than others. It wasn't that funny.

Seth leaned across and whispered in my ear, "It's an inside joke."

I nodded my head in agreement, a bit dazed. Seth whispered so close to me I felt his breath tickle my ear, Seth didn't seem to even know what he'd done as he carried on eating.

Dinner was very awkward, for me anyway, Seth and Embry kept staring at me and then glaring at each other, these guys have fallen out big time. After dinner I helped to clean up with Billy and Nessie and then I had nothing left to do but watch telly with the others.

The only spare seat was one next to Embry and I wasn't very keen on the idea to sit there. First, he and Seth both fell out with each other –and I think it was about me- second, he was always staring at me, even now which creeped me out a bit and thirdly, he's really hot and I wouldn't want to do something incredibly stupid around him.

"Nikki, come sit next to me," Embry invited, patting the space next to him.

Crap. I smiled a bit and carefully sat down. "Thanks." I said.

He grinned at me, "No problem," he turned to the T.V, "what do you want to watch."

There was some time of sport on the telly at the moment, and everyone was watching it, I think even Embry wanted to watch it. But why should it change for me? Because I'm new? Because I know nothing about American sports?

"This is fine," I lied, I hate sports.

"Are you sure? We could change it if you don't like it," I looked me in the eye, god those eyes… wait, what? Pull yourself together Nikki!

"No, I'm cool with this." I smiled slightly. What is wrong with me?

"Come on guys, you've got to go," Billy came into the living room and everyone started standing up an making their way to do the door. I stood next to Jacob, unsure of what to do.

Quil walked up with Nessie on his arm. "Well Nikki, Nikks, I'll see you around, hopefully you can tell me all about Britain." He joked.

"Seriously Quil? Nikks?" I sighed.

"Yeah it's your new nickname!" He looked excited.

"Whatever, bye." I waved at him as he left the house.

Leah just pushed past me, not even muttering a bye. What did I do?

Next was Nessie who gave me a hug, "See you later Nikki," She smiled before walking out the house towards the car they picked me up in, her mum must have taken it back.

"Goodbye Nikki," I heard Embry whisper behind me, I turned around and there he was, with a slight smile on his face.

"Bye Embry, have a nice night." I smiled. He walked out the door and took one last look at me before disappearing into the dark.

"Goodnight Nikki," Seth was in front of me then, with his arms wide, looking for a hug.

I stepped into his arms and he gave me a huge bear hug, "Night Seth," I giggled. He let me go and walked slowly towards the front door.

When Billy closed the door I turned to him, "I think I'll call it a night, Jet lag's setting in."

"No problem Nikki, all your stuff is in the room on the left when you come up the stairs." He smiled at me, "we'll have to decorate it sometime this week."

"Sure, thanks Billy, goodnight," I said.

"Goodnight." He replied.

"Goodnight Jacob!" I shouted, walking up the stairs.

"Night!" I heard him in the living room; I chuckled before walking into the room Billy told me about.

It was white walls that had separate pictures scattered on it with a wooden dresser and a bedside table. In the middle was a single bed with black covers. I went straight for the bed and closed me eyes. The first thing I saw was Seth and Embry.

Sorry it took so long! I've been really busy. Please review
