CHAPTER 13: Renny

"Hey Nessie." Quil says happily as he sees me crossing the border.

"Hi Quil. I didn't know that you were on border patrol." I smile. He's part of Jacob's pack, but after the Volturi battle, the pack's relationships weren't as tense as before. When new wolves phase for the first time, they train with Sam's pack. When they think that they're good enough, they're sent to Jacob's pack for a mock battle, without the advantage, (or disadvantage, depends on how you look at it…) of knowing what the other's thinking.

Naturally, the wolf from Jacob's pack doesn't have that working for them either, but they specialize in fighting with ought knowing what the other's thinking. Also , when Sam's pack is busy training or education the younger wolves, some wolves from Jake's pack help to maintain the border.

Quil laughs and holds up a plastic bag. "Nope. I was at the Clearwater's place, then Claire called and told us that they'll be coming over. Seth, that pig, are all the food, so I had to go out and get more food.."

"Can I come?" I ask.

"He gives me a look that suggests how absurd the question is. "Come on." He says, punching my lightly on the shoulder as we walk along the dirt path towards the Clear water house.

"Hey Seth!" Quil yells as wee bang though the door. "We've got food!"

I hear a door slam from upstairs, and I see Seth at the top of the landing, skipping a couple of the stairs on the way down.

"Excellent!" he says, his usual happy-go-lucky self. When he sees me standing in the door way, a huge smile lights up his face. "Nessie! I didn't know that you were coming over."

I laugh, and arch an eyebrow. "Well I'm not the dork who's constantly playing Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, or what ever you play on that thing."

He pokes me in the gut. "Hey, don't judge, and for the record it's a PS3." He smiles sweetly, and I cannot believe that technically-despite his young looks- Seth is 24.

We both jump when we hear Quil whoot with joy from upstairs "Yes! You finally got COD BLOPS!" and I have an irresistible urge to smash my forehead into a near by wall.

"So what brings you here Ness?" Seth asks as we walk into the Clearwater's kitchen.

"I just needed to get away from…complicated stuff." I say, struggling to find the right words to explain what I'm talking about.

"Wanna talk about it?" he asks, tossing me a chocolate chip muffin from a basket on the counter.

"Not really." I say, nibbling on the edges of the muffin. Yum. I always like Emily's muffins. "Besides. I already put Emmett though all that. Don't need to put someone else through either."

Seth starts laughing. "I didn't know that he was the listening type."

I laugh with him. "I know." Then a memory flashes to the forefront of my mind. "And he actually said the word 'mandatory'!" I giggle hysterically. I'm not crazy. What are you talking about?"

Seth and I continue to talk. About school. About friends. Just like ordinary teenagers.
