Someone to Love Forever

Chapter 3: New School, New people.

I was woken up from my peaceful slumber by a loud blaring of Kim's alarm clock. I groaned, turning over on my other side. I fluttered my eyes open and saw Kim loaming over me. "Time for school!" She sang in a high pitched voice. I groaned and buried myself deeper into my covers. "Come on Karri. Wakey, wakey!" She chimed enthusiastically, throwing the covers off of me.

"Five more minutes," I mumbled, retrieving my covers and nestling deeper into my bed.

"Come on. Don't make me bring out the cold water," She threatened me.

"You wouldn't," I gasped, sitting straight up. In her hands she held a water sprayer. My eyes went wide. "I'm up! I'm up!" I gulped, throwing the covers off.

"That's what I thought," Kim sneered playfully. She tossed the sprayer over on her bed. I gave her a weird look and she shrugged. "I use it to help brush my hair," She explained, and I nodded my head. "And now that you're here, I can use it as a threaten weapon to wake you up," She giggled and I groaned.

"I have nothing good to wear!" I complained, running my fingers through my hair. "I couldn't bring anything because they were practically all short sleeves or were sleeveless…" I added, with a groan.

"You can wear this outfit today until we go shopping. You'll have to buy a week worth of clothes," She told me, throwing some torn skinny jeans and a purple tank top with hearts around it at me. I snatched it up. "You'll have to buy some shoes too… Good thing you have me!" Kim chimed, and I laughed.

"Your not going to buy me everything!" I declared, glaring at her. She just shrugged. "not…" I growled.

"Ok. Ok. Only until you get a job," Kim stated, and I rolled my eyes. "Get changed, we'll have some breakfast and then leave for school," She told me with a smile. I smiled back. She walked out of the room so that I could get changed into my outfit. I decided to wear my tennis shoes that I brought. I couldn't bring anything. My suitcase couldn't hold very many shoes, and I couldn't carry a lot in my carry-on bag. When I got changed, I walked into the bathroom to brush my teeth and hair. I pulled out my favorite ribbon and tied my hair up in it.

When I looked in the mirror to see if I was presentable for my first day at La Push High, I walked down the stairs to the living room. Kim looked up at me from eating her eggs and bacon and gave me a thumbs up, "Cute." She mumbled through egg. I laughed at her.

"Do you want anything to eat?" I heard the voice of Aunt Merideth ask, looking at me expectantly.

I shook my head. "No thanks. I'm not hungry," I shrugged, looking at Brennan. He looked at me worriedly, like he always does. He whispered something in Aunt Merideth's ear and she nodded her head slowly.

"Ready to go?" Kim asked, packing her backpack with her things. I nodded my head and so did Brennan. I'll be ready as I ever will be. Brennan was probably more then ready. He was the basketball - football player, always getting the attention from everyone and was popular back at home. Then there's me. I was the quiet, shy girl unless you got to really know me. Kim put a hand on my shoulder, "You'll be great," She told me earnestly. Then she looked at Brennan, "You're a Senior… Right?" She asked, gathering her thoughts. Brennan nodded his head.

"Yepp. I'll have some classes with you then," He smiled. He was wearing his football jersey and his ripped jeans. There was a twist. He was wearing his football bracelet that mom had gotten him two years ago. He never wore any jewelry, and I guess he felt the need to wear his bracelet. I've always worn my locket that she gave me. One side had my dad, the other side my mom.

"Let's go then," Kim acknowledged, walking out of the house. Brennan looked at me and smiled before following Kim out of the house. I sighed deeply.

"You'll be fine my dear," Aunt Merideth told me earnestly, smiling. I shook my head.

"I don't know what to think anymore," I replied sheepishly with a frown. "Everything's changing so fast…"

Aunt Merideth gave me a knowing smile. "Just act yourself. You'll be fine, and I'm sure you'll be watched over. You'll make great friends Give La Push High a chance," She told me, and I nodded my gratitude. I walked out of the house to find Kim and Brennan waiting for me in the car. I sat in one of the middle seats of the car.

"I'll show you guys to the office. I can show Brennan around, but you'll be on your own Karriana," Kim told me with a frown. "I can't show you around, but I'll show you to your first period." She smiled at me. "But then your on your own. You'll be paired up with someone, most likely." She grinned.

We drove in silence until we came to a small school. I guessed this had to be La Push, considering this was the La Push area. I looked at Kim who just made a finger motion to follow her. I shrugged, following her into the school. Brennan was walking beside Kim, and they were talking in hushed tones. I raised my eyebrow at them, but said nothing. We entered the school and stairs automatically laid on us. I felt intimidated of all the attention I was getting. As we walked down the halls, I caught the eye of Embry, Quil and Jacob. I smiled and waved. They waved back, and Embry kept staring at me. I blushed, but couldn't force myself to look away. It was like there was a string pulling me toward him. I have to keep following Kim… I thought in my brain, and forced my self to look away.

"Here it is!" Kim chimed as we made it to the office. We walked inside and a lady was standing behind the counter.

"Hello there Kim. Who's this?" She asked, pointing to Brennan and I.

"These are my cousins, Brennan and Karriana Mckinnen. They've came to enroll in our school," Kim answered in a rush.

The lady looked at us and smiled. "Welcome to La Push High. I'm Mrs. Rowe. You need a schedule, I presume?" She asked us and we both nodded our heads. "Ok then. What grade are you in?" She asked, pointing at Brennan.

"I'm a senior. Karri is a Junior," He answered politely.

Mrs. Rowe smiled. "Should've guessed. Let me see here," She rummages through some papers. "Ah! Here we go! Karriana and Brennan Mckinnen. Here's your schedules'!" She slurred, handing Brennan and I our schedules. "Now Kimberly, will you show them to there first period?" She asked, but another voice answered before Kim could.

"I'll show Karri around," A husky familiar voice sounded. I whipped around to see Embry standing in the doorway of the office with a smug smile on his face.

Mrs. Rowe gapped at him. "How'd you get there?" She asked with a steely glare.

"I've always been here Mrs. Rowe," He answered honestly with a charming smile. I shook my head. Was Embry trying to get expelled?

"Well… Since you are both Juniors, I guess it would be easier then Miss Conwheller here to show her," Mrs. Rowe mused. She clapped her hands together, "Very well. Embry, you will be her partner for the day. Now, get to class. All of you," She suddenly snapped and we took it as our cue to leave the office.

Embry laughed. "Ignore her. She has some… Mood swings," He chuckled, and Kim slapped him.

"I know your trying to impress Karri, but we should show them around the school," She teased him. "Come on Brennan, let's go to class," She purred and Brennan laughed.

"As you wish, my lady," He said in a teasing tone. Kim glared at him, "And you know it!" She announced dramatically, pulling Brennan along with her. He looked over his shoulder and mouthed, Help me!

I laughed. "And I have to live with those two." I shook my head in bewilderment. I turned to face Embry who was staring at me intently. "What? Is there something on my face?" I asked hesitantly, instantly rubbing my thumb on my face.

Embry blinked, finally coming out of his daydream state, "No! Sorry, it's just that your so beautiful," He admitted, blushing. I could feel my cheeks getting hot from embarrassment. "So, what's your first period?" He asked, trying to seize the tension.

I looked at my schedule. "Geometry," I groaned. I hated math. It was my worst subject. Besides History. I was pretty bad at that too.

"Hey! That's my next period too!" He beamed, and was grinning from ear to ear. I had to smile at his enthusiasm. We walked to our next period class, and talked about random stuff. We learnt that we also have 2, 4, 5 and 7 period together, so that's almost every class. Except for 3 and 6 period.

"It's nice of you to finally join us Mr. Call…" A voice sneered. I looked forward to see a old women sitting behind a computer desk, looking at Embry with a steely glare.

"Sorry Miss Cowman, but I was showing Karriana around," He apologized, gesturing toward my direction. I gave him a small glare for putting me in the spotlight. He shrugged and pushed me forward. I smiled and waved a tiny wave.

"So, you're the new student?" Miss Cowman asked, putting her finger to her chin.

I nodded my head meekly. "I-I'm Karriana Mckinnen…" I stammered, looking anywhere but her. "I-I just m-moved here from C-California…" I added shakily, giving Embry another glare. He shrugged.

"Welcome. I assume Mr. Call was showing you around," She hissed and I nodded my head slowly. "Ok. Your dismissed Embry. Head to your seat," She growled and Embry quickly did as he was told, his friends whispering stuff at him on the way to his seat. "Miss Mckinnen, why dontchu sit beside Mr. Beakman over there. Mr. Beakman, wave your hand so she knows who you are," She barked, and a blonde guy raised his hand. I quickly went to sit in the seat beside him, earning stairs as I went. I sat down quickly.

"Hi. I'm James Beakman," The guy explained with a smile. "And you are?" He asked, even though he knew my name. She said it in front of the class a while ago.

I glanced over at Embry who looked like he was about to combust. I looked away abruptly and smiled at James. "I'm Karriana Mckinnen." I answered sheepishly.

James smiled. "Pretty name. A great fit for a pretty girl," He told me in a sweet voice and I blushed. Again, I wasn't used to the attention I was getting, and I was getting a lot of it unfortunately.

"Thank you…?" I said with a smile. James smiled back at me, his aqua blue eyes twinkling with happiness.

"Hi! I'm Missy Chipmouth!" A girl with an even tan and blonde hair chirped. I looked at her with a smile.

"Hi," I smiled. I was meeting a lot of people already, and school hadn't really started. I was beginning to think I was going to like this school.
