I own nothing! :D

"You barely made it." A voice said as I ran into the shop.

"Thank goodness." I say gasping. I wasn't very athletic. Running is not my thing even though I only sprinted from my car to the store which was about 15 feet. Sad I know.

"I'm Kim." She said smiling sweetly as she offers her hand. I shake it.

"Anya." I say as my breath returned to normal.

"You'll be working with me for all of your shifts. It's an easy job, trust me." She assured me with a big smile.

"Well there's no uniform so you can wear whatever you like." She informed me as she led me to the cash register. She explained to me how the register worked then we talked about each other for a long time. I felt that we could be good friends even though all she talked about was her boyfriend Jared.

"Well it's almost lunch break so my boyfriend is going to come and pick me up. You can do anything you want during the hour." She told me.

"Okay." I say shrugging. I was slightly disappointed that she was leaving for lunch since I was planning on not eating anything or going anywhere. The door suddenly opens and a tall guy came in. He had the same copper skin as Kim but he was super buff. Like super buff.

He had a kind of a cocky look in his eyes but that was gone the second he looked at Kim. His eyes were filled with so much love. Kim rushed to the giant and hugged him. They kissed and I awkwardly looked away.

"Jared come and meet my new friend." Kim said smiling like it was Christmas morning.

"Hey." I say smiling politely. "I'm Anya."

"I'm Jared Kim's boyfriend." He said. It sounded kinda possessive. Geez, I wasn't going to steal Kim from him.

"Ready to go?" Jared asked Kim looking down at her beaming face. She nods and they walk out of the store.

About an Hour Later

I tapped my fingers on the counter.

Stupid non-existent customers. Kim had ditched me for Jared, since it was her lunch break.

I glance outside and look at the dark clouds as I wonder if it was going to rain again. Then suddenly a face appears on the window. I screamed knocking over the candy stand and candy spilled everywhere. Who is this weirdo? And why won't he stop staring?

He was still staring at me even as droplets of rain started falling. He stood frozen as he stared at me with his mouth slightly open. His breath fogged the window and his hands were probably going to leave a mark.

I started to feel embarrassed. The weirdo was still standing there. It was now pouring outside so I got up and walked out. I stood under the covered entrance and crossed my arms.

"Excuse me, did you need something?" I ask. I finally got a look at his whole body. He was so tall and looked a lot like Jared but this guy was way hotter.

The guy didn't respond.

"Are you alright?" I ask him. Then a car pulled up and Kim and Jared got out. I have no clue how Jared was able to fit in that little car.

"Hey Anya I see you met Paul." Kim said smiling.

"Yeah." I say glancing at Kim then Paul then Kim again.

"Paul what's wrong with you man?" Jared asked. Then Jared looks at Kim with a look that I didn't understand.

"Let's go inside Anya! We got work to do!" Kim said and shoved me inside the store.

Paul POV

I jog up to the small store where Kim worked at. I was looking for Jared since it was almost time for patrol and where Kim is at Jared isn't usually far away.

I look through the window to see if I could find Kim. Then I saw the girl behind the counter. She had pretty long brownish-black curly hair, copper skin but slightly lighter than mine and she had a petite frame. She was really pretty. Her head was down but when she looked up at me with those blue eyes my heart stopped. My vision zeroed in on her.

All I saw was her. She was everything to me now. I kept on staring at her trying to learn every detail of her face. I saw her angelic face turn confused then she walked outside.

I almost stopped breathing when I smelled her sweet scent of warm vanilla and cinnamon.

I couldn't stop staring at her. I think she was saying something but I wasn't really listening. I see Kim enter my vision as she pushed her inside the store again. I wanted to call to to the girl but Jared held me back.

"Come on man you were scaring her." He said slightly shaking me. "And me." He mumbled.

"Jared?" I say.

"Yeah, man?"

"I think I just imprinted." I said dazed with a goofy smile.

Few Days Later

I decided to walk to work today so I got up early than usual. I yank on a comfortable pair of skinny jeans (My favorite!) and a black V-neck t-shirt. I pull on my converse then head out.

The walk was nice and comfortable since today was a nice day. The sun was shining and the temperature was oddly warm for September in La Push.

I keep on walking on the side of the road but suddenly felt odd. I look backwards to see if something was following me. Was it an animal?

I sigh then turn back to walking. It must just be me being paranoid. I walk for a few more moments and felt that someone was watching me so I speed up.

I burst through the store doors scaring Kim.

"What's wrong Anya?" she asks worried when she saw my face.

"I swear something was following me." I say panting. I was so scared so I basically ran here. I can't even jog 10 feet without breathing heavy. Maybe I should start exercising. Hmm...no.

Kim had a smile on her face like she was trying to hold back her laughter.

"How is this funny?" I huff as I throw my purse down behind the counter and plop down onto the stool.

"You don't have to be worried trust me." She said smiling and patted my shoulder.

"Wha-" I start but a customer walked in. And guess who it was. Paul. Awesome. He looked kinda nervous but a depressing air was surrounding him but he still looked cute as ever.

"Hey Paul what's up?" Kim said smiling.

"Nothing really." Paul said grabbing candy bars from a nearby rack I had knocked over a few days ago. Shhh I want to keep my job.

He sets them in front of me and I take them. I ring them up for him as I felt holes burning into the side of my head from the direction of Paul. I take the money from Paul and avoid all eye contact. I hand him his candy bars but he still doesn't leave. I turn to look for Kim but she disappeared. Darn her.

"So uh sorry about yesterday." Paul said rubbing the back of his neck.

"When you were creepily watching me through the window?" I say raising an eyebrow. He blushed.

"Uh yeah." He nervously said now biting his lip.

"It's alright. We all do weird things from time to time, right?" I say smiling.

"Really?! You're not mad?" he said looking at me with huge eyes and a big goofy smile.

"No, of course not." I say shaking my head. This guy is kinda crazy. Did I look mad?

Paul now looked really relieved. Okay?

"So are you staying here for a while?" he asked. I shrug.

"Yeah I think so. I'm really liking this place and I feel like something is keeping me here." I smile.

"Really!" he grinned again happily. This guy might be crazy but he is so cute.

"Yup." I say popping the p.

"So um uh-" he stuttered.

"Yes?" I ask him.

"Can-would you like me to take you around La Push's hiking trails?" he said suddenly. I was shocked at the offer. What would a hot guy like Paul want to do with boring old me? Plus I can't do anything that involves moving because of my sad athletic skills.

"Um-I think I'll um pass." I say. I didn't want to embarrass myself in front of him if we went hiking. "I'm not really the outdoorsy type. I'm not a big fan of going out and being with nature and animals." Paul looked like I slapped him in the face. I suddenly felt guilt rip through me.

"Pa-" I start.

"Uh sorry for bothering you." He said quickly and ran out of the store inhumanly fast. I sat on the stool completely dazed and feeling really guilty.

Please review! I really need tips on how to improve my writing! Thank you so much!
