Chapter 7:Discoveries

Jared PoV:

I was constantly worrying about how to tell her. How to tell her? She came into school today, after I followed her and watched her sleep in her bed. Her hair sprayed over her pillow. She was beautiful. I still worried because technically she didn't know me. I'm hoping to change that and to tell her.

Today at lunch, I approached her. "Hey Kim."

"Hey Jared". She replied in a monotone. Obviously miffed at me for some reason. The weird thing was she had on the flowers I sent her in her hair. It was blossoming. It was beautiful and it suited her. It was stunning. "What's wrong?" I asked slightly apprehensive and exhausted of her unwillingness, but what could I do? "You are very beautiful this morning." I tried to charm her.

"Yeah right." sarcasm coloured her tone.

"It's true." I said sincerely. "I wondering if I could get to know to you?" Please say yes, please. Say yes. Please...

Kim PoV:

Get to know me? Know me? Is he playing with me or what? I mean, well, I know I've had … have a huge crush on him but seriously... Was he winding me up? Since when did he want to know me? Oh well, there's only one way to find out.

"Yes."

We decided to meet at one of the smallest beaches in La Push that Saturday. I couldn't wait to know him and his answers to my questions, that is. We met in a secluded corner of the beach at 10:00 in the morning.

"Hi" I said timidly.

"Hi, how are you."

"I'm fine. You?"

"Yeah."

"So..."

"I thought we'd get to know each other."

"Yeah, that's a good idea."

"Where to start?"

"How about 20 questions?"

"Sounds good." I replied to his seemingly good honesty. And that was what we did. We discovered each other. Our likes, dislikes and what makes us tick. It was nice. He discovered me or at least a part of me. While I discovered that his favourite animal was wolf, he knew the legends pretty much off by heart and that he loved me and not playing tricks on me. He said so himself. He said he was blind before but during the time he was away, he found his sight.
