Laurena's pov.

I couldn't help smiling thinking of today. I was standing in my kitchen making coffee. He was so nice. I know I lo…. Like Paul but he isn't here. Doesn't want to be. Plus he's a friend. It's not like we are Dating or something but he's fun to hang out with. I can't talk to anyone around here about books. Paul was never interested, Kim is always making out with Jared and Embry is always busy. Shit! Embry, I forgot about him. Isn't that enough of a clue. You actually forgot.

I am thinking way too much about this. I shake my head like trying to shake the thoughts out of my head. Ahh… Better. I take my warm cup and go sit on the couch with a book I got today. I very quickly loose myself in the book. I can't explain myself, I'm afraid, Sir,' said Alice, 'because I'm not myse… a knock at the door pulls me from my fantasy world. I get up and walk to the door. I open the door up and look at a brown chest. "Em… Since when do you knock?" He looks … stressed? Em never stresses, EVER. He's always happy, calm, and bright. He stands there looking frustrated and angry and sad and….fuck he's going to make me through up! "EM!" He looks up at me and his eyes are bright… He's eyes gave him away. "You met someone." I state

"I am so sorry Laur! I didn't mean to I was just walking… Just there… and she was there and I looked into her eyes and she just … everything … you are …" He seemed exhausted. "Em stop!" I interrupted his rambling. He stood still, and looked at me, but didn't meet my eyes. "Em you Idiot! I'm so happy for you!" I say jumping into his arms and hugging him. "Wait…What?" he asked sounding confused, but he hugged me tightly to his chest.

"I'm so happy you met someone that seems to make you happy." I say as he sets me down and looks down at me. "I still think you're hot but I know that me and you aren't soul mates … or whatever." I say quoting him. He burst out laughing and I soon followed.

After we calmed down he started to tell me in detail about Julie. He seems head over heals! "It's getting late." He smiled getting up after I yawned… once again. He leaned forward and kissed my forehead. "I still love you Laur." He whispered. "Yeah yeah remember to lock the door as you leave" I say smiling.

When I got upstairs I say my blackberry light blinking. I picked my phone and opened the new message.

You really should drive slower you know. I'm sure Chief Swan would appreciate the break. –E

I smile, whenever I visit the blacks he seems to be around, ready to give me a speech.

It's a lot less trouble than you think; He always has an extra few tickets, with my name on them, upfront. He just fills in the date. –L

Proud are we? -E

Definitely. –L

Sleep well Laurena. –E

Nyt Eddie. –L

I fall asleep with a small smile on my face.

School went on normally, it sucks, no matter what school is a constant. I am so ashamed to admit that I miss Paul, I see him around the school but he doesn't give me any notice, no matter what I wear or who I talk to, he barely looks my way. It hurts like a motherfucker but I am not going to go begging, and give him a chance to laugh in my face. Edward and I talk regularly. We go to the library a lot, I like it there and he seems to like it too. He picked me up at the diner once and I drove his car, it was really smooth and all that, but not like my baby, my baby was fun. He drove my car once as well and seemed to fall inlove. We seemed to be just driving around in my car, I felt very smug about that.

He asked me if I wanted to visit his house one weekend. I was really nervous but felt a lot better after he told me that his family wouldn't be there. One Cullen at a time thank you. Embry was going to visit Julie again and Kim and Jared where helping Emily get things ready for Emily's baby.

As I drive up to their house I'm in awe. It's amazing and beautiful and stunning and…. Wow. He opens the front door as I get out of my car. "Interesting wardrobe choice." He says smiling at me. Well sorry if I feel like I'm pretty much fucking dying of heat stroke. "I don't know if you heard but we are in the middle of a state wide heat wave." I say. Fucking fridge boy.
