Leah's Imprint

Chapter 4

I don't know how long I stood there staring at him until he got up and asked if I was ok.

" Yeah. I'm fine. I think?" It sounded like a question

"Well you don't sound very sure of yourself." He was frowning now. Think Leah! Think!

"Umm…well…I-I.. wanna come inside?" When did I start stuttering? Oh…this is so embarrassing!

" Ok. Sure. I'm Daniel by the way." He smiled (finally) and stuck his hand out for me to shake. I took his hand and it was warm. Even though his temperature was lower than mine and it was cold out, his hand still felt warm. I looked back up at his face from where I had been looking at his hand, to see his eyes twinkling with his smile. "and you are?" Daniel asked.

I blushed and looked down "Leah" I whispered…..Was I shy?

Then I could have sworn I heard him whisper " Beautiful name for a beautiful girl." but I couldn't be sure.

I looked up to see a camera lens in front of me. Then I heard it.

Click.

"Did you just take a picture of me?" I asked

" Yeah, sorry about that but the light was perfect." He smiled sheepishly.

"Oh, don't worry about it. You just surprised me is all. Why don't we go inside it looks like it's about to rain"

"Ok." We started walking side by side to the front door of the house. He was looking at something on his camera, so I took the time to look at him more.

He had pushed his hood back off his head sometime while we were talking. His hair, which I had only seen a little bit of from under his hood, was a dark brown and was in slight disarray without looking dirty. He had thick eyebrows and about two days worth of unshaven facial hair. His skin was light but not pale, you could tell he was out in the sun a lot. I could tell he was athletic but not muscled like the guys in the pack were.

He wasn't beautiful. That wasn't the right word. He was extremely handsome. All man, without being overly masculine.

We reached the door and Daniel looked up from his camera right when I looked away to open the door. " Ladies first?" He asked smiling at me.

" Wow. A guy with manners. Not really used to that around here." I replied, walking into the house, Daniel trailing behind me. The only guys around my age that had manners here were the Cullen guys. Being raised in a time before guys figured out they could get away with treating you like something they scraped off their shoe helped them in that respect.

My guy had manners.

Did I just think 'My guy'?

Hah! Take that Sam!
