A/N: Sorry about going on Hiatus… It was unintentional. Please forgive me :D
The next morning my alarm clock went off on time and I got up and began to get ready for school. I decided the braids had looked pretty last night, so after a quick shower I re-braided my hair into two french braids. After a quick peek out the window I realized it was raining still and chose to bring an extra sweatshirt with me so I would have a dry one for when I got to school.
When I was finished upstairs I went down to the kitchen to get an apple, a granola bar, and a bottle of water. I put the granola bar and the water bottle into my bag along with the sweatshirt. Then I went and sat on the couch to eat my apple and watch the news for a little bit. After about two bites of the apple my phone began to ring, I quickly swallowed and then answered it. It was Mary. She told me that she and David would be picking me up in a few minutes so I wouldn't have to walk in the rain. I finished my apple, threw the core away, then went out my front door to sit on the porch until Mary and David showed up.
While I was waiting I began to think about everything that had happened last night, now that I wasn't caught up in the moment I began to realize that things had happened really fast. I was not the kind of person to go to a guy's house and then make-out with him within a few hours of being there. At least I had thought I wasn't that kind of person, now I wasn't so sure.
I was startled from my thoughts by a car beeping, it was Mary and David. I ran down the porch steps and headed straight for their car. Once I was inside I greeted the two of them and thanked them for picking me up. David was driving, so as the rule that the twins had, he also chose the music. He liked to listen to his music loud, so it was hard to hear what Mary was talking about, but I thought I heard her talking about a test in some class that she didn't like.
Within five minutes we arrived at the school, David and Mary both got out of the car quickly and waited for me so that we could walk into school together. The three of us ran to the front doors to get out of the rain then went on our separate ways to our lockers. As I was walking to my locker I saw Paul Lahote and Jacob Black arguing, they both looked really angry and were almost yelling at each other.
Suddenly Paul started shouting at Jacob about not having to take orders from him, as he was shouting he began shaking. Jacob started to tell Paul to stop being an idiot about something when Paul punched him; soon both Jacob and Paul were shaking violently. Out of nowhere Jared, Quil, and Embry showed up and tried to separate the two shaking boys. Suddenly Paul took off running past me and out a side door; Jacob and Jared followed him.
I quickly started walking towards my locker again so I wouldn't be spotted by Embry, I was still unsure if I really wanted to go out with him on Friday or not, we were both quick to rush things so I was shocked that I had actually agreed to the date. I made it to my locker unnoticed by the boys, put away the things I wouldn't need for my first two classes and gathered the things I would. I really was not looking forward to math class today… When I got to the room I took my seat and started working on the homework for tonight. Embry and Quil walked into the room soon after, Embry went and took a seat in the very back of the room.
Quil however, stood up by the teacher's desk and cleared his throat to get the teacher's attention; "Uhm, Jacob Black is running late to school and should be here soon. He texted me and asked me to let you know so that you could mark him tardy instead of absent." Mr. Carter simply nodded, stood and began writing the lesson plan for today on the whiteboard. I thought that it was really weird, hadn't anyone else seen Jacob before he left?
Shortly after that the announcements came on, then class started once they finished. I really don't care for math class, mostly because it was so easy for me, I was always finished with the work after the first time Mr. Carter explained it, I didn't need it repeated three times in order to figure it out like some of my classmates did. Therefore, I always had time to daydream during math class.
However, this time I had something weighing on my mind. Usually when I was worried about something I tended to over think it and make the situation worse. This time was no different. I started to freak myself out over the whole 'date with Embry' thing again. I was really making myself worried, I was thinking of all the things that could possibly go wrong.
Suddenly there was a strange noise from the back of the room. Everyone turned around to see what was going on, Quil looked worried and Embry looked as if he was going to be sick. Suddenly Embry grabbed his bag and began to leave, Mr. Carter stopped him; "Mr. Call, just where do you think you are going?"
Embry turned back to look at Quil before speaking, "Sir, I think I should go to the nurse's office. There's a huge possibility that I might get sick in your room if I don't go…" Mr. Carter nodded his head and pointed to the door, Embry quickly hurried out. No sooner than Embry had left, Jacob came into the room apologizing for his tardiness.
The rest of the school day continued uneventfully after that, Embry was back in classes by lunchtime along with Paul. After school let out I hurriedly ran home, avoiding Embry as well. I went upstairs and put on the dress I had picked out last night and changed into the flats before I went into the bathroom to fix my braids. I was only home from school for a half hour until my dad came home. He went to his room to get ready and change into his suit. After he was finished we both got into the car and started the long drive to Port Angeles. It was a quiet trip up there, and I was very ready for when we got there because I was starving.
At the restaurant we were greeted by my dad's friend, Roger and his family. Roger had a wife named Clara, a son named Isaac who was seventeen, and a daughter named Jenny who was only five. Isaac was very silent throughout the duration of the dinner, which was okay because Jenny talked enough for the both of them. I ended up being stuck listening to stories about her kindergarten's field trip to a park. Eventually Clara saved me from losing an ear by telling Jenny that if she finished her food she could have dessert. After that it was very quiet again, except for the adults talking of course. I sat and silently listened to everything that was happening around me.
After the dinner was over my dad asked me if I would drive Isaac and Jenny home before I took myself home. The adults had plans to go out for a few drinks so I agreed and then took Jenny and Isaac out to my dad's car. After being in the car for about ten minutes, Jenny fell asleep. Isaac and I were left to listen to the radio playing quietly. Suddenly Isaac spoke up, "Did you think the dinner was as boring as I did?" I laughed and nodded my head, "Did you have a hard time staying awake while having to hear about our father's jobs?" Isaac looked over at me with a smirk, "I was only quiet because I thought I was going to end up telling them to 'shut up'. That would not have gone over very well…"
After that it was quiet again until we arrived at Isaac and Jenny's house. Isaac thanked me for the ride and then carried Jenny into the house. I backed out of the driveway and started on my drive home.
