I can't find the fucking keys, ughh! I run around with hair flying all over, smoke suspended despite the wind cutting my skin, the ground shudders and the roof shatters, and once more the disaster replays itself. The human mind is beautifully destructive after all. The sound of an electric drill, squealing brakes on a bicycle and nails on a chalkboard form a choir and rehearse song after song. I finally find those damned car keys putting an end to the chaos. I lock the door behind me and run to the car. I'm running a suicide sprint in the hills to find him before he could turn into a murderer. The car's position irks my OCD, but no time today. I run into their house and find them all sitting around the dining table, looking at Seth, giving instructions.

"Seth, we need to talk" I try to maintain the little dignity I have spared myself earlier. My eyes focus on the excessive redness of his lips wondering how hard he would have bit into it. "We just did, Julie." "I don't want you to turn into a criminal, please." I dive into the plea without any bullshit. "Two wrongs don't make a right, Seth." I try to reason with him once more. "Mrs. Cullen, please say something, stop him." I turn to plan B and let her see past my pleading eyes, into the guilt and fear. "Please," I whisper once more before the first wave hits, the water is everywhere, its quickly raising. A thunder roars from above and the water reaches my ankle and quickly turn to Seth to make sure he's alright but, he's already drowning. I shut my eyes waiting for that vision to go away, I never want to see Seth like that again.

I feel an arm wrap around me, I jump a little and turn to white boy with copper hair and caramel eyes. I shrug out of his half-embrace and stare at him. "Seth, you're putting her through hell. If only you could hear what I can." Excellent first impression, he's a weirdo, but either way I'm grateful. I mouth a thank you to him and turn to Jacob, "Jacob, please?" I need all the help I can get. Seth is turning into psycho right before me and I won't let that happen. I think I can recognise a pattern - first the deadpan face, then the intense shivering, and the heat radiation. Is he doing drugs? I hope not. "Julie, we can't just let it be." "Jacob, we are not doing this right now, I've seen him beat my uncle once already and I know full well that he could even kill him." What is wrong with these people? "I'm the one who is concerned with this situation, why are you reacting?" I question Seth making sure his eyes are on mine. He doesn't answer, what even?

"I'll do whatever it takes to stop you now, please stop. I'll give you anything you ask but, just stop." Plan C, beg. I walk to him until there's barely any distance between us and decide to cut out that too, take another step until our chests are in contact. I stand on my toes and press my lips against his. Hard. Oh god, this is the perfect blend of embarrassment and PDA. He slowly, hesitantly, responds to my plea in disguise, places his hand on my hips. I break the kiss slowly, breathe in and breathe out, rest my head his chest and try again, "Anything you want."

"Stay with us, here." The second wave hits, the walls are closing on me, it's suffocating me. The Pandora's box is trapping me. I open my eyes and it all vanishes, I'm at Seth's place and he's asked me the inevitable. "What will I tell everyone? What will you tell everyone? I'm not a major yet, my uncle is my official guardian. I don't want to get adopted and become your sister." I whisper into his chest. "I'm hungry and tired." I add as my legs ache and stomach rumbles. He lifts me off the ground bridal style making me giggle like a baby. Mrs. Cullen quickly makes lunch for us while Seth formally introduces me to the rest of his family. Edward is the weirdo, Bella his girlfriend, Renesmee his sister. Rosalie and Jasper are sister and brother. Alice and Emmett were adapted singly. Nice. I'll have to spend a lot more time with these... people? I don't know, they don't give me normal vibes.

We finish lunch and I doze off on the sofa.

I wake up to the piano's gentle music, impressive. The weirdo's got some skill. He's playing an unfamiliar tune but I don't care, I really liked it. I go to Seth's room and find him sleeping too, so I tip toe into the bathroom and freshen up. So, me and Seth are a thing now, I guess. Little happy dance on that occasion. I come out and sit across the bed, watching Seth sleep. I'm a creep. He looks just like a baby. God, I think I love him. I'm scaring myself at this point but place it at the back of my mind and quietly leave the room. I didn't notice the balcony in the first floor last time I came but, I would have never left if I'd seen this. It gives full view of the woods and the falls to the east.

This feels like a convergence of natural and anti-natural but oh, so perfect.

A/N : Yikes, fastest I've ever written a chapter. Maybe it's a little raw but it is what it is. Will post soon.
