Chapter 4

"MAMA! Do you- oh! never mind!" I yelled. Yay! I found my black heels, they totally made my outfit fancier, but I didn't care, if everyone on the Rez were as tall as Seth and Embry then I seriously needed them otherwise I'd look like an elf compared to them, most Peruvian people were naturally short, if I were to visit my family in Lima I would be of average height or maybe even considered tall, but that wasn't the deal here and I didn't want to stand out. I turned to look at myself I looked nice in my lace top and jeans, and my heels. I had straightened my hair because everyone always said it looked nicer that way. I did a few practice laps around my room, so I got used to the shoes. I got my bag and headed downstairs for the kitchen , my mom and Stephen were already gone, which made me feel a little stupid cause I had been screaming her name earlier, there was a envelope on the counter and I ripped it open and saw my mom's handwriting.

Hola nena!

Stephen and I thought you might need this, just to make your life easier. Enjoy!

I reached inside the envelope, and pulled out some keys. I sucked in my breath. A car. They had gotten me a freaking car, I knew my mom was trying to get me accustomed to our move but this was over the top, even for her. I ran as fast as I could with my heels on outside and gave a big gasp when I saw it.

It was a BMW black Cabriolet; I ran back inside grabbed a vitamin water and headed outside with my bag, I sighed moving to La Push wasn't as terrible as I thought it was going to be.

When I finally got to school, it was twenty minutes late, I gotten lost on the way since all the streets looked the same. I almost tripped on my way inside; I calmed myself down cause if I kept going like this I would surely make a damn fool out of myself. I went inside and found the office with no difficulty. I stood there for the longest time before being acknowledged.

"Can I help you?" someone snapped at me.

" Yes, I'm new" I said with a polite smile.

"Name?" the lady asked.

"Montez."

"Your name is Montez?" She asked amused.

"Uh, no my last name is Montez, my first name is Fernanda." I replied as patiently as I could.

"Mhm, here is your lock and your schedule you've already missed the first twenty minutes, but go anyways to get yourself introduced." She turned back to her computer." Your locker number is 123" she added with looking at me.

I nodded, she seemed like an unpleasant lady and I didn't even bother asking her for her name. I began to look for my locker, walking down the hallway; I glanced down at my schedule, ugh English, I slowed my pace, I never liked English back home, we had to take grammar as a separate unit and I pretty much sucked at punctuation and capitalization and many other grammar related things. I sighed as I found my locker, it was pretty much beaten and it creaked like hell, I wanted to turn back as demand for a new locker, but there was no point since this would probably do the job. I grabbed the lock and began turning it to open it, I failed and repeated the process, and it still didn't budge. I whimpered knowing class was already about to end.

"Need some help?" someone called.

I turned, it was a girl holding her hand out for my lock" Sure" I mumbled. She opened it with ease and hand it to me.

" Just turn it back to zero when you're done, its broken like mine" She turned to look me in the eyes and smiled " Are you new here? You don't look Quileute"

I nodded" Neither do you."

"Ugh I'm not, my name's Jennifer, but you can call me Jen" Her smile widened "I'm from LA"

Jen looked nothing like a Native American; she had short wavy blonde hair and was wearing obvious designer labels. She smiled.

"Nice pumps, what's your name?" She asked.

"Thanks I'm Fernanda" I replied.

" Fernanda, hmm I think I'll call you Fer is that cool with you?"

"Fine, by me"

"So where are you from? Vegas, Texas, New York?" She looked at studying from head to toe.

"New Orleans, "I answered smiling. She looked new too and was obviously in the same boat as me.

"Oooh, ever been to Mardi gras?" she asked

"Of course! " I exclaimed.

The bell rung and people came scrambling out I put my books away keeping only what I needed.

"Where you headed?" Jen asked, obviously annoyed with the noise in the hallway.

"Art."

"Perfect, me too!" Jen grabbed my arm and looped it around hers." Almost every option is mixed with underclassmen since this school is so damn small. I miss LA."

"I don't blame you, beaches, shops, SUN!" I half-yelled the last part.

"Ever been?" She chuckled.

"Uh-huh," I unhooked my arm from hers, since we were standing inside what obviously looked like an art room.

"Hi" I said to the teacher" I'm Fernanda "

"Oh, yes um I'm Mrs. Whittier take a seat" she smiled" Ms. Carter, don't you have a class to get to?"

Jen was casually leaning against the doorway" Nope" she said popping the P.

"I'm taking art now, Mrs. Whittier" Jen's tone had turned sweet.

"Really? Well, where's your slip" Mrs. Whittier said her voice seemed kinda pissed.

"Don't need one, my father talked to the school board and now I'm taking art." Jen had already made her way towards me." Where would you like us to sit?"

Mrs. Whittier looked defeated "Anywhere" she mumbled warily.

I turned to look at the class there weren't many people, but I did see Seth and this other boy staring at me and Jen, they were sitting at the back with some other very big boys. I started to make my way towards them, but Jen pulled me back.

"This way" she whispered, once we were sitting down she leaned closer" You see that boy? The one with the red shirt on?"

I nodded. He had been staring at Jen since the moment we came in. "Why is he looking at you like that?"

"I don't know! Since the very first day he's been like that, looking at me nonstop, following my every movement and he's even asked to carry my books a couple of times!"

I turned to see him; he was like most of the boys I'd seen around here tall, russet skin, good looking. I agreed that they way he kept staring at Jen was kinda creepy, but he didn't have a mafia look on his face, it was more as if he liked her.

"He's cute"

"Maybe," Jen said considering it" But he's got to work on his staring, plus not interested, I have a boyfriend"

"I don't think he stares like that at everybody that way" I said.

Jen ignored my last comment and had pulled out a piece of paper and began doodling on it. I chuckled and pulled out my sketchbook. Mrs. Whittier had announced that she was gonna go get some supplies from the office and ordered us to be quiet. As soon as she was out the door Seth had come to sit by me and Jen.

"Hey Feranda! Oh um hey Jennifer" He said his voice booming in the room.

Jen looked up to give him a weak smile and went back to her doodling.

"So what class do you have next?" He asked casually.

"Bio" I replied, his expression turned sad.

"I have gym, you have gym too, dontcha Jennifer" Seth asked.

"Uh, yeah" Jen responded surprise in her voice.

Just then another guy came to sit beside us. It was the guy who stared at Jen! I smiled trying to keep from giggling.

"Hey Jen" he said nervously.

"Hi" Jen replied not looking up from her doodling.

"I'm Fernanda" I called, behind Jen.

"I'm Embry" Embry said smiling clearly relived that I had acknowledged him. He turned to Jen once more" Jen, are you, busy this weekend?"

Jen looked up to see him" Um, Yeah I have plans with Fer."

"Oh, maybe next weekend?" Embry asked hopefully.

"I'll let you know" Jen replied.

Embry nodded, I felt so sorry for him he obviously really liked like Jen. I wondered if He knew that Jen had a boyfriend, maybe he would back off if he knew that she did at the same time it looked like he'd had been rejected by Jen several times this made me wonder if he was fighting for her or something. It was Seth who spoke next.

"So what are you girls doing?"

Jen hesitated before speaking"Um... I'm introducing Fer to my friends from the Forks high school."

I perked up; I liked the idea of meeting new people. But I wondered if she was saying it because she didn't want to spend any of her time with Embry, I turned to face Seth, who was looking at my drawings.

"Do you like them?" I asked since he seemed so interested with them. He nodded and it made me smile" You can have them then."

He glanced up at me "Really?"

I nodded; I didn't need them or want them. Jen who was peeking over her shoulder giggled, I think she might have been about to say something but the bell rang at the moment. She grabbed my hand and headed out the door. I mouthed Seth 'bye'. We walked in silence for a moment and then I broke the silence.

"Am I actually meeting any of your friends?" I asked keeping my voice casual.

She turned to look at me like I was demented" Of course"

"So, what's the deal with you and Embry?" I was actually really curious.

"Who? Oh, you mean the guy who stares at me, nothing I told you I have a boyfriend" She sounded annoyed. " So what are you going to wear on Saturday?"

"I dunno, a skirt maybe" I already had my books and I didn't want to be late for class. "I'll see you later, kay?"

"Sure."

We went over anatomist stuff in bio, and after headed to next class. So far all the teachers seemed decent, and the people too, one girl even asked me if I wanted to join her study group at lunch so we could go over any stuff I didn't know, I politely declined I wanted to eat lunch with Seth, plus I had to go to the cafeteria anyways since I hadn't brought anything to eat. I had World Civ the period before lunch, which thankfully the classroom was somewhat close to the caf or so I had been told, so there wasn't any chance of me getting lost. The bell rung soon enough and I went straight for food, I was starving I hadn't eaten anything since lunch yesterday, unfortunately there wasn't much variety in the food it all looked pretty much the same, so I settled for a yogurt cup and a bottle of water. I was startled when something pushed me into the next person in line.

"What the he-"I stuttered, I turned around to see what it had been. It was Quil "Oh, hi"

"Hey, sorry uh I don't know my own strength sometimes. Um do you want to sit with us at lunch?" Quil asked enthusiastically.

"Sure" I wasn't sure whether Jen would want to eat lunch with me or not.

He led me over to his table, where several other boys where already seated. The thing about all these boys is that they were tall and muscular, I wondered if they all went to the gym together or something. There was only one other girl seating with them.

"Fernanda this is, Paul, Jared, Kim, Jacob, Collin, Brady and Embry" He said motioning me to sit down.

"Hey," I smiled towards Embry, who didn't seem to be paying attention to anyone.

"Where's Jen?" he asked.

"Um, I don't know I haven't seen her since Art." I answered; Embry had a worried expression on his face. At the moment Seth came to sit beside me, he had a huge smile on his face, pleased that I was sitting with him and his friends.

"Seth, where's Jen" Embry asked once more.

Seth had already begun his lunch and was in the middle on chewing so his words came out in a slurr" Dunno, she never made it to gym."

Embry got up and walked out of the caf. Jen was probably skipping school, she didn't look at all happy to be attending here and she maybe needed a breather or something.

"Is he ok?"

It was Paul who spoke to me "Yea, he's fine he gets anxious when he's away from Jennif- OW! Jake what the hell ?"

Jacob had slapped the back of Paul's head maybe he wasn't supposed to tell me that, it seemed weird for Embry to be anxious away from Jen, since they weren't dating or anything.

"So how long have you been Forks for Fernanda?"

"Wha- oh just two days" I smiled at Kim; the one named Jared had his arm around her. They had probably been dating for months, and the way he looked at her was so cute. She smiled back at me, just then, Quil spilled his drink all over her, she squealed trying to keep herself from screaming, and Jared growled at Quil, looking really pissed.

"Ugh," Kim sighed.

"C'mon, I'll help you get it out" I said, taking her hand and pulling her to the bathroom.

Kim gave me a grateful look, and I got some paper towels I handed them to her. Unfortunately Quil's drink was cream soda so it was very noticeable on Kim's shirt; her jeans however had been spared.

"Kim, what size are you?" I asked, she gave me a puzzled expression.

"Um, small" she said still sounding confused.

"Perfect." I replied and too off my lace shirt and the tank top underneath. I handed her the tank top" Don't worry its clean."

Kim took her soaked pinkish shirt off and pulled on my tank top" Thanks"

"No problem," I said putting the lace top back on, I was glad my bra was at least white so it blended in a bit.

"You know, it's nice to have another girl sitting with us" She said," The guys are sometimes a lot to handle by myself sometimes."

I smiled, not sure what to say. Kim was inspecting herself in the mirror my shirt. I was really curvy, and my hips had kinda stretched the tank top, but it didn't look bad on her or anything. I faced the mirror to do the same; I look fine I told myself.

"Wanna head back?" She asked.

I nodded, when we got to our table Jared stood up as we approached. Seth's eyes widened when he saw me and some other people did too, I could feel my cheeks burning. I hadn't had a chance to look over the school's dress code, but I thought I was acceptable since I had a shirt on, but then again you could clearly see my bra.

"Sorryy Kimmi" Quil said with an apologetic expression.

"S'okay" Kim replied leaning into Jared's chest.

All I paid attention to was all the garbage that was piled on the table, Wow! These boy at like there was no tomorrow, putting all the garbage to side when they were done with it. My yogurt cup was gone, I tried to inspect through the garbage with no success.

" Wactha looking for Fernanda?" Collin asked.

"My yogurt" I replied, looking up. Oh. He was eating it "um, never mind."

"Sorry! I thought it was Seth's!" Collin yelled.

Seth looked embarrassed, and Collin almost ashamed.

"You can have my apple" Jared said smiling, offering me his apple.

I heard a few gasps go around the table. I probably looked scared or something cause Brady leaned into me and whispered" Jared never shares"

There was a loud thump and Brady yelped. I giggled and took the apple and bit it, there was something about these boys, and they almost felt like family to each other. Maybe they all bonded at their local YMCA while bragging who could lift the heaviest weight. Seth had put him arm around my chair and was on his third sandwich, he was actually the slowest cause they were like five ziplock baggies in front of Jacob and Jared.

At that moment Jen stormed in Embry five steps behind her." Ugh! There you are! I've been looking all over for you!" She grabbed my arm and dragged me out of the caff.

I was about to scream at her who the hell did she think she was, but I saw that she had been crying"Jen... Are you okay? What happened? Where have you been?"

Jen collapsed into my arm and began sobbing; I was silent and rubbed her back with my hand. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Embry looking like he wanted to commit suicide. I wondered if it was him who had found Jen. A few moments passed before I spoke.

"Jen what happened?" I whispered.

"He broke up with me!" Jen sobbed.

"Who?" I asked incredulous.

"Ethan, he dumped me over a text before gym" She cried even harder." I drove to Forks, to talk to him but he wouldn't even look at m-me!"She took a couple of breaths, composing herself." Then that big Yeti showed up and ruined everything!"

"Who? E-Embry?" I almost yelled this part.

"Yes! He saw me crying and screamed at Ethan, Fer! He's crazy! he punched Ethan in the face!" Jen looked like she was ready to set Embry straight.

"Wait, what did Embry say to Ethan?" I asked.

"He was like 'what the hell did you do to her?' ugh, Fer you should've have seemed him, he had an animal look on his face, he's a dumbass Fer, they both are!"

"Jen?" I mused.

"Hmm?"

"Embry probably broke Ethan's jaw" I hadn't ever seen Ethan but I don't think anyone could take on Embry expect for maybe Jared... or Seth. This seemed to perk Jen right up.

"You're right! Probably did some permanent damage too" Jen giggled. She straightened herself and sighed, she pulled a compact out her bag screamed when she saw her face, before mumbling" Bad day not to wear waterproof"

"Ugh, Fer I'm going home" Jen announced, she paused before looking me in the eye" Thanks"

"Anytime" I replied.

With that Jen walked outta school, and Embry approached me looking miserable. I gave him a weak smile." Hungry?"

Embry nodded, and I headed with him into the cafeteria we sat down and Jacob handed him two sandwiches and Embry ate them silently.

" Dont worry Emb, she'll come around" Seth said sympathetically.

This earned him a slap on the head from Jacob. The last few periods flew by, I was retreating to my car when Seth put his arm around me.

"So, how was your first day of school?"

"Good, except there was a lot of drama for a first day" I replied smiling at him.

He nodded and gasped when he say my car" Nice car Fer!"

"Thanks, it was a gift"

"Can I quickly borrow you phone?" he asked nonchalantly. I handed it him and he punched in his numbers.

"Text me!" He called as he ran off to meet Leah, who had just entered the parking lot.

I drove home in silence, not even turning the radio on. I was home in less than twenty minutes (this time I didn't get lost! Yay!). My mom was cooking in the kitchen when I came in.

"How was your day nena?"

"Great" I replied.

I went into my room and my bag started ringing, I pulled out my cell and there was a new message.

Hey Its Seth. :D
