Chapter 2

I put on a grey knitted top and black leggings with black sparkly Toms, this was casual enough I thought to myself, I turned to see myself in the mirror, I didn't look half bad. I headed for the door already knowing I was making my mom and Stephen late.

"The Clearwaters have been close friends of my grandmothers since I could remember, there was this boy Harry that I used to look up to, he and his friends were always in some type of trouble..." he kept going but I didn't feel like listening him, though I loved Stephen as much as I could have loved my father but his stories always took too long, and I had better things to worry about, against my will I had to go to the Reserve's high school, I was counting on my not being Quileute as an out, but since Stephen is one-fourth Quileute and I was practically his daughter, the school board decided to make an exception, just for me.

"Fernanda, were here" my mother chided.

"Huh?"I asked clearly dazed.

"Fer, were here... get out of the car" Stephen translated excitedly.

I obeyed quickly, not wanting to upset either of them. As I closed the door to the car, observing the house it looked like Stephen's grandma's but bigger. I shook my head, here we go I thought.

We were greeted by two women, the older seemed to know my stepfather well and they embraced as old friends would, the younger one smiled and shook his hand. My mother and I stood there waiting to be introduced by Stephen.

"Ahem" my mother nudged Stephen.

"Right, uh, this is my wife Theresa and Fernanda my stepdaughter" Stephen enunciated our names as if these people had never heard Spanish names.

"I'm Sue and this is my daughter Leah" the older woman smiled kindly at my mother and I as she said it" My son Seth is working right now, he is very sorry he could not be here. Come in!"

Leah studied me before speaking" Are you going to school in La Push?"

I nodded, I usually wasn't this nervous around strangers. "Do you?" I asked trying to be friendly.

"Nope" Leah replied popping at the P" My brother does though, he's a junior"

Just like me I thought to myself, maybe I could get to meet him that way I'd at least know one person at school tomorrow.

I hope you guys are enjoying the story so far, this chapter was a little short, but i promise next chapter will be longer and Seth and Fernanda will meet!

Enjoy and please review!
