Disclaimer- Sadly I do not own twilight. Only Nikki and her friends.

Nikki's point of view:

I looked up and there he was. Paul Walker. I mean what could he possibly want with me? He's never spoken to me before. Correction, once in 6th grade he asked me for a pencil. He never noticed me in scholl before. Why is he standing close to me then? I looked into his chocolate brown eyes and was instantly filled with warmth. As I looked at him I saw his face go through an array of emotions. First there was shock, next was surprise, third was awe, and fourth was...love? I swear this kid looked as if he just saw the sun for the first time in his life. It was kinda wierd. As I blushed and looked down I hear his friends say things like, 'Oh my god!' , 'Paul? Really?', 'Finally!', and my personal favorite, 'Ha! I knew it! Now you owe me 5 bucks'. I mentally laughed and looked back to meet his gaze. He was still looking at me with adoration in his big eyes. I then noticed a bigg russet hand come towards me.

"Hi, I'm Paul" He said. I already knew his name but I might as well be nice to him.

"My name is Nicolette but people usually call me Nikki" I said grasping his hand. It was HUGE. Not to mention insanely warm. I saw him smile at me then he looked a little worried.

"Nikki why are you here all alone?" He asked. I looked around and realised that my friends were still in the water. I must've forgot about them for a second.

"Oh no I'm not alone my frien-" I was cut off mid sentence by an obnoxious yell coming from non other than Jade.

" Hey bitch!We're leaving it's getting kinda dark." I heard a low growl and looked around for a dog. I din't find any. Weird... I then looked at the horizon. The sun was setting and the orange and pink clouds looked really beautiful. I looked at Pul and then back to Jade. Behind her I saw an angry looking Eli and a stupid looking Scott. Sometimes he was a real retard. I then made eye contact with Paul again.

"Those are my friends. I'm sorry but I have to leave." I said. I saw his expression turn from happy to sad and desperate.

"Do you have to?" Paul asked looking into my eyes. I swear he was looking straight into my soul.

"Yeah I have a curfew. Plus school starts tomorrow." I said.

"What school are you attending?" His voice sounded anxious.

"La Push High School." I said.

"Me too."

"I know that. I've known who you are since 2nd grade. I guess I'll see you tomorrow." I said smiling sweetly.

"Wait you know who I am?" He asked exasperated. I just nodded my head.

"How could I have not noticed you?" He asked more to himself then to me.

"I tend to blend into the shadows." I shrugged.

"Still I could've totally seen you. More like should've seen you" He said.

"Yeah well..." I said letting my voice drift.

"I guess I'll meet you at school tomorro-" Paul was cut off By Jade. did I mention she has no patience. It's like if she wants something she's gonna get it then and there. Right now she wants me.

"Who the hell are you?" Jade asks linking her arm with mine.

"I'm Paul Walker." He said looking annoyed.

"It was a rhetoricall question dumb ass. I know who you are." Jade sneered. I don't know why but Jade has always had a strong resentment for Paul and his little, well not so little 'minions'. I looked at Paul and he was starting to shake. He looked so pissed at Jade. She's only saying this to protect me. If looks could kill, Jade would be 6 feet under. I then saw two of the boys walk up to Paul and put their hands on his forearms. I reconised them as Embry Call and Quil Ateara.

"Calm down Paul" Quil said.

"Yeah man, You know what would happen if you let your anger get the better of you."Embry said. Paul's shaking subsided when he looked at me. His eyes softened at the realization. He obviously knew something that I didn't. But what I do know is that I never want to be around him when he's mad.

"Well it was nice metting you Paul and friends but we need to get going." Jade said dragging me away from him. The farther we walked the more of a pain there was in my chest.

"See you later Paul!" I shouted over my shoulder. I then saw him run back into the forrest with his buddies behind him. Putting on my clothes I felt numb. Like there was a huge gap in my heart and it...hurt. For some unknown reason I wanted to be near Paul again. WAlking back to the car me and Jade saw that Scott nd Eli were already in Eli's trusty hearse. Scott was sitting in the back, Eli in the driver's seat. I walked to the door and slid into the leather seats while Jade climbed in the back. When Eli started the car I was bombarded with questions.

"What was that about?" Jade asked.

"Yeah why were you talking to him?" Eli said the word 'him' with much distaste.

"I was just looking at the view from the cliffs when him and his friends came out of the woods. He came up and started talking to me." I said looking out my window.

"More like deciples" Scott snickered.

"He's not that bad. And why do you guys care so much?" I asked.

"Not to bad? Nikki he looked like he was gonna explode." Jade said exasperated.

"Well maybe if you didn't go running your mouth to him..." I let my voice drift off.

"What he was being stupid. You know how much I hate stupidity." Jade said almost whinning.

"Trust me I know first hand" Scott said rubbing the back of his head like he just got smacked by Jade.

"Why the fuck are you defending him?" Eli said clearly aggitated that I didn't find anything wrong about Paul. When I tried to think of something bad I would get the look in his eyes that he gave me.

"Maybe because he didn't do anything and you're just bashing on him?" I said kinda pissed.

"So what are you just his new best friend?" Eli asked.

"No. But I'm willing to be his friend." I said.

"Yeah I bet he's just using you for sex. You know how he is. Ans once he fucks you he's gonna dump you." Eli said. What Eli said hit kinda hard. Paul was a player. He would slepp with at least 4 different girls a week. It was just kinda...sad.

"Why do you fucking care so much?" I asked him with venom laced in my voice.

"Why do I care? Why do I care? Maybe because I don't wanna have to pick up the pieces when he brakes you. You're screwed up enpugh as it is. I don't want him to make you worse." Eli said while his voice was rising. What he said hit hard. We were parked outside my house. When he said that I heard Jade gasp and Scott looked shocked.

I couldn't help but let a few tears escape and whimper. Eli noticed this and his features softened. He tried to pull me to him but I smacked his hands away.

"Get over your self Eli. Fuck you!" I yelled before stepping out of his car.

"No wait Nikki I didn't mean it I was just mad that you were talking to that bast-" I cut him off rudely.

"Save it douche bag!" I yelled at him before flipping him off. I turned around and started walking up my driveway. I heard Eli yell the word Fuck really loud before speeding off. I walked up my to my house and looked in the window. My parents weren't home as usuall. I grabbed my keys and took them out of my back pocket. I put them in the lock and unlocked the door. I was about to close the door whan I heard a pained howl of a wolf from the woods outside my house. I slammed my door and locked it. Two things were on my mind the rest of the night. Paul, and Eli.

How was this? Review please
