A/N: HEY! This is our chapter 2, seth is introduced here, so hope you like it(: and pleasepleaseplease review! It'll be a awesome way to celebrate the end of our exams!

Chapter 2

Our house was big. Extremely big . That was the good part. Okay, maybe not so good. I mean who was doing the cleaning? ME! The house will be filled with filth! I won't clean it all in time. SIGH. But we don't really know what Dad has in store for us. I mean he could be hiring a maid for us. Actually that would be horrible. What if she was Whitney 2? Oh god, no. never mind, what's a little filth ever done to anyone, anyway?

I was going to start school next week. Yeah, I was so looking forward. Well, I guess that's just being pessimistic; there were some good parts too. I mean, free dress, and school started at 9! That meant that I could wake up at like, 8 which was 1 and a half hours longer sleeping time! But yeah I still had to wake up early, to make breakfast, to dress Callie, and everything. AND drag that fat brother of mine out of bed and to school.

That week was full of unpacking. Dad had done one good thing, he had remodelled a wardrobe for me, and it was huge. Bigger than my room. The house was quite pretty, it was on the beach and had a great view. There was a yard and a fence surrounding it and you walked into the living room, which dad had painted bright colours- I really don't get why- it had the most gorgeous view of the sea . And then, at one side, there was a winding wooden staircase, going upwards and downwards. Its gets kinda scary at night, like when you walk down to get a glass of water, and you feel your way in the dark and are totally freaked out you will lose your balance. And totally unsafe for Callie. But still, it was pretty.

As for the neighbourhood, I can't say much. I'm not anti social, but well, I haven't had much time for "exploring". Chores? Remember? Anyway all I can say is; our neighbours are really friendly people called the Blacks. The day we arrived this old dude rang our bell, and he was in a wheel chair and everything. He was tanned and kind, and he reminded me of a wise old grandfather, and his whole aura reminded me of this leader; authorative and well, dominant. He wheeled into the living room followed closely by this 17-ish looking dude. Oh ,and did I mention? He was NOT WEARING A SHIRT. You could see his totally visible 8 pack, he looked a lot like his dad, who introduced himself as Billy, and his son as Jacob. "Jacob" smiled at me and said "whats up kiddo? Heard you were new to the town. Me and my old man wanted to drop by and say hi." I mean, if Whitney was here, she would fall to the floor in a dead faint. But not me. I was not very into guys. I smiled shyly at him while he sauntered off to go talk to Chris. Billy asked a couple of questions, I told him I had just moved here with my sister and brother, and our parents were in Seattle. I didn't tell him why, and he didn't ask, his dark brown eyes studying me carefully. He asked about my hobbies, what school I'd be attending. When I mentioned La Push High, he broke into a smile. "My jake's going there too, along with a bunch of other kids from around here, you'll make fast friends." He said quietly. And then Jacob interrupted "umm, so here, we came by to pass this bunch of welcome stuff. There's muffins from the Clearwater, toys for Callie from embry's, and a bunch of other stuff from me and quil. Oh, and sam and Emily gave some stuff too." "thanks, " I said, taking the basket awkwardly, balancing it on my knee. "well, we gotta run, see ya around, kiddo." He said as he wheeled his dad outside.

Later that night, I mused over the entire thing. What a load of interesting people. And it was real nice of them to send that basket of stuff. My stay here, has just got interesting.

The next few days passed by in a blur. Basically straightening out the house and getting everything ready for school. And dealing with the little bumps, bruises and arguments and stuff. Who knew being in charge was this tough?

I had school the next morning. School. was going to be horrible and I knew it. I was way too shy, and it took me forever to warm up to others. And, the whole education system would be totally different from back in Singapore. I hope it was easier but then, things kinda don't go the way I want them to. Like always.

Our first day of school,Chris forgot to wake up. Who forgets to wake up? well, apparently he does. We were almost late thanks to him. On our first day of school. What a great impression to make. Also, it was raining like REALLY HEAVILY. Didn't help the late part much.

After registration, we went off to our classes. I had Math first. Great. Math was my worst subject. I made my way to class, late. As i was saying, great first impression.

My teacher, Mr Herzog, was a balding man who kept wiping his forehead with his old, checkered handkerchief, like it was 90 degrees or something. His face was so red and sweaty when he welcomed me. I nervously stepped into the classroom and looked around. Well, absolutely no one i knew. But since the only person i knew around here was Jacob...

"Well class, this is our new student..." he trailed off looking at me.

"Cam. Well, Cameron," i said seriously nervous now. Oh if they laughed? Yeah, Cameron is a stupid name. curse mom and dad for giving me such a stupid name…. where is a giant black hole when you need one?

"Ah, well Cameron, welcome to our class. Would you like to tell us about yourself?" he asked, smiling kindly at me, his hankerchief dabbing at his face frantically.

No, no no. No. Never. Not in a million years. "um, okay" i heard myself say. Damn! My stupid mouth!

"well, i moved here from Singapore, and i live here with my twin brother Chris and my little sister Callie," i said, so nervous now, i was pretty sure that i was sweating so hard, the classroom may just drown in my sweat. And everyone was just STARING. Blank. Oh well, who isn't blank in math? (A/N maybe people. Really smart ones. Like amrutha. Back to the story)

"Hey, you live here with your brother and sister? What happened to your mom?" a guy from the front row asked. He had shaggy blond hair and dark green eyes and he was kinda cute. In a skater boy kinda way.

"She's umm... on vacation most of the time with my dad," i said avoiding his gaze. Well, that's a nice way to describe her. Vacation. More like rehabilitation.

"swee-eet. Man, that's wickked," he said. I smiled before Mr Herzog cut in.

"Okay, Cameron, if you may, why don't you take the seat over there, next to Seth?" Mr Herzog. Who was Seth? To help me out, he pointed out a guy who was just sitting there with a weird expression on his face. His jaw was slack and his eyes were like , bulging would have been funny if I weren't so creeped out. It sorta looked like he was a blind man looking at the sun for the first time. And I was the sun. Yeah, a weird analogy. But we all know, that never happens. not in real life and definitely not me. As in on cue, I tripped and my books fell to the ground. Blushing, I hurried to the seat, avoiding everyone's gazes.

I turned, and stared at eyes never left my face the whole time. What was wrong with him? This was just uber creepy.

I tried to not look at him, but failed. He was pretty hot actually. His skin was a dark russet colour , tanned , and his teeth were so straight and white. Braces? And maybe he used whitening strips. Just as I was thinking this, he flashed me a smile an di felt my heart pound. His hair was black but had some brown streaks that looked pretty natural. And his eyes. They were a dark, expressive chocolate brown, I could get lost in them. Damn, must look away, must concentrate on lesson!

But... the teacher was talking about equations... (A/N sorry, they're 15, and i don't really know what they learn in America at that age for math, but my friend's 15 in the French international and she's doing equations...) i had already done that, like two years ago... maybe, just a little hello?

"Hi, i'm Cam," I turned slightly towards him and said.

He shook his head a couple times, like he was trying to clear his head before answering. "I'm seth," he said. Only two words? Well, that sucked. But hey, I probably woundnt have done better

Seth pov

I heard a pair of light footsteps approach. When the girl walked into the room, i sucked in a breath. She was so beautiful. She had just taken my breath away. It felt like the world had just melted away, leaving only was my sun, my hope, the reason for my existence, the center of my universe. And she was just so beautiful! I couldn't look away, her whole face was so mesmerising. Her short honey brownhair, not like a bob-cut, but not long either, her big, brown eyes, beautifully long lashes, the way she was chewing on her lower lip- was she nervous? Her teeth were so white against her perfect lips, her tan skin, her petite figure, everything was so cute.

I knew i should look away- wait, why should i? I wanted to keep staring at her for the rest of eternity, never look away. I wanted-no i needed- her. The rest of the room became blurred but i didn't care. The room could have exploded and i wouldn't care.

The teacher then said my name, and pointed at me. What? i was annoyed. Because of him, I have to staring and land back onto earth with a BUMP. She started walking towards me. Wait. She was heading for the seat next to me. Yes! My eyes didn't leave her face as she walked towards her seat. She looked so adorable like that. She looked so adorable all the time. And then she tripped, catching herself just in time. My heart skipped a beat and I almost ran forward to catch her, but I controlled that urge. Just barely. She blushed, the most adorable thing I had ever seen and almost ran back to the seat. Woah, she was embarrassed. I chuckled. How can someone be this cute?

She stared straight ahead, fidgeting with her fingers.(A/N haha that's what aby does. Figures.) She then turned towards me, and said "hi, i'm Cam." Her voice was so sweet, it was high, but not too high, and so melodious, like music to my ears.i could follow that beautiful sound anywhere. Wait, dude. She said something. Say something back. Something smart. "Hi, i'm seth, seth clearwater," i said. I internally kicked myself. Hi, i'm seth? Really? That was pretty much the dumbest thing i could say.

"oh, so your one of those guys, who sent those stuff, that Jacob sent over." She said. I noticed she had the most adorable accent. "uh huh." I said, thinking that it was cool that she remembered.

"So, you say you moved her from Singapore, right? How is it over there?" I asked. Please let her not think i'm a total idiot!oh wait, she probably already does.

"Oh, yeah, it's really great there, but the temperature is kinda bad. It's way too hot over there. But you get used to it and all my friends are there, and i really miss my neighbourhood there, and my school, even my teachers. It's the place i was born and brought up for fifteen years, you know? " she said. She blinked a couple times. Shit, i am such a retard! Why did i have to ask such a touchy question? Of course she misses that place, do i need to remind her? I was just messing up today. Ugh. But how could I not mess uo in the presence of such an angel?

"Oh," i said lamely. What was i supposed to say? She laughed- a cute tinkling sound- before continuing.

"so, how's it here in La Push?" she asked. Okay, here was my chance.

"It's pretty nice, the beach is awesome, and it's really quiet here. But the forests are really dangerous, so don't go wandering off in there," i said. If she went into the forest and a stray vampire got her... i didn't want to think what would happen. She could not! She had to stay safe.

"Oh, is it wolves? I heard some yesterday night. My little sister got so freaked, she refused to sleep in her room alone," she said, laughing again. Her laugh was such a pretty sound. I laughed along, although inside i was hurt that she would think that we were the dangerous ones. But, i would save that story for another day. she stared curiously at me for a while. what was she thinking? A strand of her honey brown hair fell onto her face, and I resisted the urge to tuck it behind her ears.

"Cameron and Seth! Can i help you?" Mr herzog's voice came across the room.

"No, it's okay," i said. My eyes didn't move from her face. It was like I was trying to memorise it, evry inch of it.

"Actually, maybe Cameron can help me. Cameron, would you care to answer this question?" he asked, and evil smile twitching on his lips. This proved it, he was evil.i had suspected all along.

Cameron agreed and went up to solve the sum. Woah. She was smart. She got it correct! Stumped, Mr Herzog had no choice but to let her go back to her seat.

As soon as she reached her seat, the bell rang. Yes! Out of class finally! But I sat fidgeting on my seat. Cam made no move either.

"Um, can i see your schedule?" i asked nervously. Would she say no?

"oh, oh yeah sure!" she said, pulling a piece of paper out of her bag, which she then handed to me.

Yes! Our schedules were almost the same! Well, except for the next lesson, she had Literature and i had Bio. But our lunch was the same!

I handed her back her schedule with a "thanks."

Cameron pov

He asked me for my schedule. I gave it to him wordlessly. What was i supposed to say? Maybe i should ask him for his? should i?

Just as i opened my mouth to ask to see his, that guy from the front row what's-his-name came up to me.

"Hey new girl. I'm Lucas," he said, smiling at me. Oh, so that was his name.

"I'm Cam," i said stupidly. Well, duh, he knew that.

"I know," he said. See? Geez. Why do i have to be messing up as usual?

"So, what do you have next?" he asked.

I checked my schedule. "um Lit with Mrs Mallory," i said.

"Sweet, that's my next class! How 'bout i walk you there?" he asked, smiling even wider.

"sure, yeah, okay," i said. He seemed pretty nice.

On the walk there, he kept talking. He was pretty talkative. And really funny.

When we got to class, the teacher was not there yet. Lucas motioned to a chair next to his, and i sat down there. Then the teacher walked in.

"Well class, i see we have a new student. What's your name?" she asked. She looked pretty strict, her brown hair was tied up in a tight bun, and she was wearing one of those green dresses with polka dots made out of stiff cotton with a white starched collar. She had a pair of glasses on her nose and she stared at me. If looks could kill, i'd be dead.

"uh... my name's" but before i could finish, she cut in.

"stand up! And keep your back straight! No slouching in this class! Look at the person that you're talking to!" she said sternly. I had a feeling i wouldn't like this teacher. Next to me, Lucas was trying his best-but failing- not to laugh.i kicked him under the table and he stopped.

I stood up straight. "My name's Cameron," i said. Now, would she find something wrong with my name too?

"Okay, Cameron, sit down," she said, still strict. Man, who spit in this lady's cup today? Well, I couldn't blame the person. I knew if I had been there I would have done the same.

"she's always like that," Lucas whispered to me. As though he had read my mind

"No, really? That woman has mega-issues," i said. Lucas laughed silently.

"You two in the back! Cameron and that boy! Stop talking at once! I'm going to begin my lesson, and you two better pay attention!" she snapped.

Well, duh, i wasn't gonna listen to her, and neither was Lucas.

"Stuff her," i whispered across.

"i know, she's like... a cockroach or something like that!" he whispered back.

"What did i tell you? Stop talking! Or you know what? You two have detention! For a week!" She yelled at us.

What. The. Hell. Seriously? Detention? I'd never got detention before!

"I'm sorry, i can't make it this week, or next week, or any week for that matter. My parents are on vacation and i need to take care of my younger brother and sister," i said. Hopefully...

"Well, then you should've thought about that earlier shouldn't you?" she said. Damn this woman.

"Yes ma'am, i'll have my lawyer get back to you on that," i said. Lucas was trying to stifle a grin.

"really? You have a lawyer? Oh, i'm so scared!" she said, sarcasm oozing in her voice.

"yeah she does! I'm her lawyer!" a girl from across the room stood up. Wow, this girl had guts. And she was really nice.

"So, as my client was saying, she cannot attend detention at all. Case closed. Thank you!" she said.

"Samantha Conweller!" the teacher said angrily. This girl was going to get it.

"That's my name, don't wear it out!" she said, still smiling.

"Detention!" our teacher yelled.

"hey, whatever makes you happy, right?" Sam said. Wow. I gotta admire her guts.

The teacher glared at her, forgetting me, and went back to her lesson. Ugh. This lesson was so boring. Literature was never a fun subject for me.

The rest of the day passed by in a very boring blur. Then, it was time for lunch! Finally, some time to relax!

I made my way to the canteen. As i got some pizza, i felt someone touch my arm from behind. I screamed and turned around. Oh, it was Seth. Damn, i just screamed so loudly for no reason. Retarded much?

"Did i scare you?" Seth asked, looking really nervous.

"No, no, it's okay, i was just caught off-guard," i said. Please let him not think i'm a total weirdo!

"oh, okay. I just wanted to ask you if you wanted to sit with me and my friends," he motioned towards a table full of- oh my god, HOT! Guys. But then i saw my brother sitting alone at a table.

"Love to, but i should probably sit with my brother," i said.

"okay then, i guess i'll just sit with you. If you don't mind," he said, smiling.

I nodded my head to show that i didn't mind. Well, maybe this day wasn't so bad after all!

"hey chris, how's school so far?" i asked him as i sat down opposite him. Seth sat down next to me.

"Bo-ring. Who's this?" he said, motioning to Seth.

"oh, that's my friend seth. And dude, don't talk with your mouth full, it's sick and gross and disgusting," i said. Ugh, trust my brother to be so embarrassing.

"Whatever," he said. I kicked him under the table. He kicked me back, and i glared at him. He shrugged and continued eating. My stupid brother.

Seth was really quiet, but i could feel his gaze on mine the whole time. Weird. Why couldn't he stop staring? I chewed on my pizza, hoping that he would look away. It was really creepy.

The rest of the day was really boring. Except for the last period, which was Drama. Something kinda weird happened there.

"Okay class, all of you, line up, we have 2 months to produce a totally awesome play! So come on, today we will be picking out roles!" Our teacher, Miss Coventry was a very... fast-moving lady.

"Oh, look, we have a new student! Where did you come from? And what's your name?" She asked. I introduced myself for like the what-billionth time? Just as i finished, Seth came rushing into the room.

"Sorry Miss Coventry! I got delayed! I'm really sorry!" he said, his face flushed like he had been running for a long time now. Aaah never mind, why do i care anyway? As he was speaking, his eyes met mine, and i quickly looked at my feet.

"yes, yes Seth, well, hurry up, get in line, ask someone to explain to you what i just said!" Miss Coventry said.

"Okay, we are going to do this by drawing lots. So, please pass this box down and randomly pick a piece of paper, do not peek!" so saying, Miss Coventry passed down the box. I picked up my piece of paper. I didn't even know what the play was about!

I opened it. OH EM GEE. On the piece of paper was written "Juliet" i repeat OH EM GEE! It couldn't be. They play could not be... Romeo and Juliet! This was so weird! I felt like screaming! I don't want this part!

"Um, Miss Coventry, is the play Romeo and Juliet?" i asked nervously.

Please say no, please say no, please say no, pl-"Yes dearie, i forgot that you didn't know! Why, did you get Juliet?" Aaah! Couldn't life be on my side for once?

Incapable of speech, i nodded and continued my internal freak-out again. Wait. If i was Juliet, who was Romeo?
