I DO NOT OWN THE TWILIGHT SAGA.
Seth's P.O.V.
"Hey, Emily's here with food!" Embry exclaims. We all turn around and see Emily with some girl drop a bunch of bags next to a nearby log. The girl that's with her is really beautiful. She looks to be my age, maybe a year older, with an olive complexion, blue hair, and almond shaped, dark brown eyes. Maybe she's part Asian. She is also a good height, about five foot two, which is really cute.
"Who's this?" my mom asks, gesturing to the girl. I'm wondering that too.
"Everyone, this is Persy. She's a new friend of mine," Emily says. She then turns to Sam. "Sam could you go get the cooler in the back of my car?"
"Sure Em," he says. Then he gets up, hives her a kiss on the lips and walks towards her car. I look over at my sister, worried. Ever since Sam broke up with her to be with Emily, Leah has been a little sore on the topic of love; and Sam and Emily in general. Which is kind of sad considering that Emily is our cousin. But I can't do anything about it, Sam imprinted on her. Persy then sits on the san, close to the fire.
"So Persy, let me introduce you to everyone. The guy that left is my fiancé Sam, then this is Embry, Quil, Jared, Kim, Paul, Jacob, Bella, Sue, Billy, old Quil, Leah, Seth, Brady and lastly Collin."
"Hey," she says. Even her voice is cute. Soft, but with an edge. Throughout the next half an hour the food Persy and Emily had bought, is cooked and consumed. I had about Four hot dogs, an entire bag of chips and half a bottle of soda, which is kind of good, considering how much the other guys eat; and by the time we are done, there is nothing left.
When I look over at Persy, I see that her eyes are closed, and her head is tilted back. She looks really relax. I decide to be nice and talk to her.
"So Persy, where are you from?" I ask. She opens her eyes and looks right into mine. And all of a sudden I feel warm inside. And the only thing I can focus on is her eyes, which I now notice, are so dark that I can't even tell where the iris ends and where the pupil starts. And now I can't imagine life with out her, I know that I cannot live without her. And when I feel the eyes on my skin, I realize what just happened. I imprinted, on this girl who is so beautiful. Everyone is looking both at me and her with surprise, though she doesn't seem to notice.
"Well... I was born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. But recently I've been moving around the country," she says. Wow, she's a long way from home.
"Which states have you been too?" asks Kim.
"Um... New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, South Dakota, Montana, Missouri, California, and now Washington." Wow, she's done a lot of traveling.
"Wow, that's a lot of traveling," mom says echoing my thoughts. She smiles, showing her dimples.
"Well she can do whatever she wants, because Persy is emancipated," Em says. I raise my eyebrows. Why would she want to get emancipated?
"Why did you get emancipated?" asks Billy. She takes a deep breath.
"I was in the foster system for a little while, but one time my foster father almost beat me to death in a drunken rage. So I decided to get out. I've been on my own ever since I turned sixteen," Persy tells us. It makes me so mad that her foster father treated her that way, I wish I could beat him up.
"What happened to your both parents?" asks Jared, his arm is slung over Kim's shoulders and he'sstroking her arm. Persy gets a pained look on her face.
"They were passengers on one of the planes on 9/11. So they are no longer with us." So that explains the pained look. I wish I could comfort her and make all of her troubles go away.
"Oh my God, I'm so sorry," Emily says with a sympathetic look on her face.
"It's okay, it was a long time ago."
"What happened to your older brother?" She has an older brother?
"Well he was killed in a gang shootout. The police just said that it was an accident. That he wasn't paying attention and walked right into the line of fire. But I know that, that isn't true." She looks down and her clenched fists. "I sometimes think that the reason why those men killed his, is because he was transgender. I don't get why some people hate transgender people. I mean... just because he was born a boy trapped in a girl's body doesn't make him any less of a human being, you know?" she says.
"You must miss him a lot," says Bella. She bites her lip.
"Yeah, I do. He was my best friend. Blue was his favorite color, you know," she says, her hand reaching up to touch her blue hair.
"Well I'm sure he's watching over you, wherever he is," Emily says.
"Hopefully," Persy says.
"Are you Asian?" I ask suddenly. I seriously don't know where it can from, but I really want to know.
"Seth!" Mom says.
"It's okay, Sue. I'm not Asian, though people often jump to that conclusion. I'm actually Puerto Greekan," says Persy. I frown.
"Puerto what?" Leah asks.
"Puerto Greekan. Which is basically a short way of saying that I'm half Puerto Rican, half Greek."
"That makes more sense," Paul says. She glares over at him.
"What is that supposed to mean?" She sounds offended.
"Nothing! Just forget I said anything." She glares at him for a second more, before looking away. Then, it is time to start the telling of the legends.
