Another chapter in the adventures of Alex. Well, Why Me and Him? So Alex finally needs help. She is just adding her own little twist. Here's Chapter 10! -A

After admitting I need help from other people to myself, I fell asleep. I didn't even think about school the next day. Which sucked for me. When my alarm went off the next morning, I fell out of bed. "Crap! School!" I said frustrated. I jumped up off the floor and raced out of my room. I ran to the bathroom. I was glad I beat Kattie to it because I didn't bother turning my alarm off. I did normal morning stuff. Brushed my hair, did my make up. Stuff like that. When I was done I opened the door to a pissed Kattie.

"It's all yours." I muttered as I walked past her to the stairs. I went downstairs to the kitchen. I realized I haven't eaten in a long time. I grabbed an apple from the fridge and walked up back to my room. I picked out a pair of jeans and a blue shirt. Blue wasn't my best color, but I really didn't care then. I took a bite of my apple. I threw it in my trashcan then walked into the bathroom. I brushed my teeth and did a once over. I looked okay for a bad night sleep. I walked back into my room and grabbed my bag. I looked around the room to see if I forgot anything. I didn't. I shut my door and ran down the stairs. Kattie was sitting on the couch.

"If you skip school today I'll beat your ass." She warned. I rolled my eyes. I walked out the front door. Today was going to suck. How would I explain not being there for all of my classes, other than first? I started walking down the road. I passed Jake's house again. He just walked out the front door. He didn't say anything to me. 'I knew it. I'm guessing Seth's help isn't available anymore.' I just kept walking. I didn't see why now I cared if I was alone. I've been alone before. I made new friends. What's the difference now?

When I got to the school I took a deep breath and opened the door. I was glad no one even looked at me. 'Just get to Mr. Howard's class. It will all be over soon.' I didn't look down once, but I didn't hold my head up high. I was so happy when I saw Mr. Howard's class in sight, until I heard Paul. 'Don't look. Just keep walking. Remember: He's the one with the imprint.' I went to the back of the room like yesterday. I sat in the same desk. I grabbed my bag when Paul walked in. I knew it probably looked like I was avoiding looking at him (Which I kind of was) but I needed a notebook and pen. I pulled out my green notebook and green pen.

I looked up and noticed the only open seat was next to me. 'Oh great.' Paul had to sit by me. 'Maybe I should get here earlier...' I wrote down some notes. Probably not even half of what I was supposed to write. I found where room 21 was. It was English. I had this class with Seth. There wasn't anytime at all to talk during class, so I really didn't know if Seth was avoiding me or not. I used a purple pen and notebook in this class. I got my stuff together when the bell rang and looked over at Seth.

I walked over to him. "Hey Seth." I muttered knowing he could hear me. He looked up. "Oh. Hey." 'Great...' "I was just wondering if you still wanted my help on that one thing." I told him. He nodded. "Yeah. Sure, you know Paul is just mad. Nothing to freak about. He can let his temper get the best of him, but he still loves you." Seth started. I nodded. "Imprinting is well...it's where we become whatever our imprint wants or needs us to be. Protector, lover, friend or brother. We all just wish it was lover that they pick." Seth told me while we walked out of the class.

"So, your saying that I don't have to love him?" I asked. "Yeah, but everyone knows you like him. So just love him already and get it over with." Seth laughed. I rolled my eyes. "Anyways, about your help. What do you want me to do?" I asked. "We can talk about that later. I need to get to class." He told me before walking ahead of me. I looked at my class schedule. History. I saw that my class was just across the hall. 'That was easy. This day was going better than I thought it would.' I had that Kaylyn girl in this class. I wish I knew what Seth wanted me to do.

I sat by her for one: there was no other seat available. For two: If I became friends with her it would be easier to talk to her about Seth. And three: There were other seats, just next to creepy people. "Hey. I'm Kaylyn." She said before looking at me. "Yeah, I know. I'm Alex." I told her. She looked at me. "Oh! We bumped into each other yesterday! Wait, you weren't in this class yesterday." She said. I nodded. "Something came up." I told her. She nodded. "I cut the last class of the day. Don't worry. Everyone needs a break." She laughed.

I used an orange pen and notebook. Kaylyn looked at me. "Do you do that for every class?" She asked. "Yeah. I love pens, but I match them with a notebook because it matches, but it helps me know which class it's for." I told her. "That's smart." She said. That was pretty much our conversation the whole class period. We didn't really do much, like my first two classes. He just talked about what we would be learning. When the bell rang I put my pen and notebook in my bag and got up. "Hey, Alex?" Kaylyn asked.

I looked at her. "Yeah?" "Wanna hang out later?" She asked. "Like where?" I asked. "Oh I just wanted to talk to you about something." She told me. "Uh, sure." I told her. She smiled. "Okay. I'll get your number from someone." She said. The reminded me that no one here other than Kattie had my number. "Well, no one really has my number so I'll just give it to you." I told her. I found a spare piece of paper at the bottom of my bag. I wrote it down and handed it to her. "There. Well, I need to get to class. Later." I said as I walked out the door.

I went to gym class. 'Oh no.' My gym teacher had to be crazy. It was like she wanted to kill us all. Climbing rope on the second day? We didn't even have our gym clothes! "Okay girls. Go take your jackets off and put them in the locker room. Maybe if that smells good no one notice your bad smell after class." Our teacher smirked. 'Bad smell? She wishes. Just because I don't have gym clothes means I'm going to let my clothes for today stink. Hell no! Plus I didn't forget my lavender perfume.' A small smirk formed on my face.

It was funny watching our teacher (who by the way never told us her name) yell at the girls that didn't want to break a nail. I rolled my eyes at that. 'If you don't want to break a nail don't grab the rope with them.' "Alex Trinity?" The teacher asked. I stood up. "That's me." I told her. "Where's your last name?" She asked me. "I don't have one." I told her. She gave me confused look. "It's a long story okay, so just let me climb this rope." I told her. I could tell by me saying that to her that she wasn't going to like me.

"Fine. Ms. Trinity." She rolled her eyes like she thought that I thought I was better than everyone. 'This chick is crazy.' I grabbed the rope. I put one foot on the lowest knot while one foot was still on the ground. I took a deep breath. The gym doors opened with a very loud bang when they hit the wall. 'Oh no!' Paul, Seth, Embry, Quill, Jared, and Jacob all walked in. I hid my fear. I put my other hand on the rope. "Alex! Hurry up!" My teacher screamed. "I've only been standing here for about fifty seconds!" I yelled back. "That's almost a minute!" She yelled at me. I rolled my eyes at her.

I put one hand higher. Then did the same with the other. Soon I had to put my leg that was on the floor on the rope. Not on the knot. The rope. I hoped I wouldn't get rope burn. I also hoped that the guys weren't watching me. I put the next hand higher, then the next. I was getting somewhere. The second knot was in hands reach now. I grabbed it. I had to use my legs anyways, if I just left them hanging there I would of fallen by now. I pulled myself up higher. This wasn't easy in jeans. Soon my foot was on the second knot. Three more knots to go.

'Bell please ring. Please.' When I looked down, I had gotten far just not as far as I wished I was. I kept pulling myself up until I got to that third knot. Two more to go. 'Please let the bell ring. Please! If that's not going to happen let the guys be doing something that doesn't include watching me.' I was finally at that fourth knot. One more to go! I cheered in my head. When I got to the top I looked at my teacher. She was writing something down. "Amy James! Your next!" My teacher screamed. Climbing down was easier than climbing up. When I was finally down on the ground Amy grabbed the rope.

I walked into the locker room and grabbed my bag. I made sure everything was in there, that was supposed to be in there. I pulled out my lavender perfume. I sprayed some on my wrist and neck. I walked out of the locker room and sat in the bleachers with everyone else. I never did look to see if the guys were watching me. It was really boring watching most of the girls climb up the rope. I was super happy when the bell rang. I grabbed my bag and was about to walk out of the gym when Seth came up to me.

"Oh, Hey." I said when I saw him. "Hey." He said. "I have History with Kaylyn." I told him. "That's great!" He said. He almost sounded like the Frosted Flakes tiger. Except He says, "Their grrreat!". Well, their both animals. "Well, I have to find my next class. Later." I said while I walked out of the gym. I felt my phone vibrate. I couldn't look at it now. I still needed to find my class. When I was back in the main building I saw Kaylyn going towards the gym. "Hey Kaylyn!" I called. She looked at me. "Hey!" She said. "Do you know where the science classes are?" I asked. "The science hall. Duh." She laughed. "Where is the science hall?" I asked. "You go down this hall, then at the very end on your right." She told me.

"Thanks." I told her. I turned around and saw Seth. "Hey Kaylyn." He said. He was smiling. 'Aw, how cute.' I didn't know if she said anything because I was to far away by then. I hoped she did. It took my forever to get to the science hall. I hated being the only 'pale face' -as Kattie calls it- here. It made me stand out way to much. I had Biology this Semester. Which seemed pretty boring. I sat in the back of the classroom. As always. I pulled my phone out. Not where anyone could see though. It was from Kattie.

'Did you skip? If you did, I'm keeping my promise. I'll beat your ass!' I rolled my eyes. Kattie had the full keyboard so she wrote out the full word. I had the full keyboard and I didn't do that. I put my phone up. "Okay class. Lunch." My teacher, Mrs. Deeyn said. I wasn't really hungry, which surprised me. I only ate one bite of an apple. 'Oh Well.' I was glad we didn't have to sit with our class. That would be so third grade. I found Kaylyn and sat with her instead of the wolves. She was sitting with Amy James from my gym class and a few other people who I didn't bother to learn their names.

I didn't say much. I just laughed when other people did and said,"Yeah." every now and then. The conversation was pretty boring anyways. All about classes and school junk. I would have to change it if I didn't want to go insane. "Hey, Kaylyn?" I asked. "Yeah?" She asked. "Who do you think is cute here?" I asked her. "Oh. Well, that's easy. Them." She pointed at the wolve's table. "Other than the girls, but you get it." She said. I nodded. Helping Seth was going to be a piece of cake. I let them talk about guys they thought were cute while I tried to think of a plan.

Okay, So that was Chapter Ten!! I'm so happy my story is coming together so well! Well, I think it is, and that's the only thing that matters right? Anyways, The Cliff Notes version of this chapter: Alex went to school. Yay! Chapter Ten is up! -A
