Chapter 2--I What?
"Ugh. I hate Seattle," Collin grumbled as we walked towards the escalator to go down to the first floor.
"You only hate it because it's crowded and people stare at us," Seth pointed out. "I don't think it's that bad."
I rolled my eyes. "You don't even think hanging around with the leeches is 'that bad.' I can still smell them on you," I added significantly. I hate those reeking bloodsuckers.
"They're really nice-all you have to do is give them the chance," Seth said as we started going down.
"We have," Collin said. "We just can't stand the creeper-ness," he said as I nodded in confirmation.
Seth rolled his eyes and started giving us his usual speech when anyone rips on the Cullens. I just sighed and dragged my fingers through the fountain behind me; praying that we'll find a shoe store with big enough sizes on the first floor. I jumped as something unexpectedly ran into my hand in the water and turned around.
My eyes widened. Standing in front of me was the most gorgeous girl I have ever seen in my entire life. She wasn't very tall with reddish brown hair that went just below her shoulders. She was pretty tan for girls around here and had ice blue eyes with black lining the outer edges. I couldn't bring myself to look away…
"Andrea," a girl's voice snapped, making the girl turn away as she ascended in the opposite direction.
"Hey Brady. Brady, are you okay?" Collin asked behind me. Was I okay? No. This girl I just met was making my gut try to pry itself out of my stomach just so I would follow her. I'm pretty sure I'm not okay.
I ignored him and took a step up the escalator, fighting my way passed people as I tried to keep an eye on the girl. "Hey, watch it man," some guy said as I shoved passed him. I growled at him under my breath and he took a step back.
I finally caught up to her as I pushed a twenty something year old woman aside. The girl turned around after I tapped her on the shoulder and I couldn't help but sigh in relief when I saw her face. "Hi, I'm Brady," I said as I continued to climb the escalator-the opposite way I'm supposed to be going-and shoving people aside so I'll stay level with the girl.
"Andrea," she said with a bright smile of her own as she held out her hand for me. I grinned and shook it, basking in how great it felt in mine.
"So, here are you from?" I asked as we stepped up to the second floor. I was right; she was a lot shorter than me. She only came up to about my shoulder.
"We just moved here," a girl cut in, brushing passed Andrea to stand in front of me. She smiled up at me and I had to resist the urge to point out that her roots were showing in her obviously dyed blonde hair. "I'm Erika," she said, holding out her hand.
"Brady," I said, quickly shaking her hand and looking back at Andrea. "Where did you move to?" I asked. Please be close, please be close, please be close.
"Actually, I have no idea. We're getting there by GPS as long as Erika didn't lose the address," Andrea said before her eyes darted back to…Erika I think it was.
"Hey Brady!" the unmistakable voice of Collin boomed. "What are you doing?" he asked as he and Seth stepped off of the escalator and walked over.
"Guys, this is Andrea. Andrea this is Collin and Seth," I said, gesturing to her and back to the guys.
"Hey," Seth said brightly, seeming as happy as he always is.
"Hi," Collin said with a little wave.
"Ah-hem," someone coughed. I looked up just as Erika stepped in front of Andrea, again.
I heard her sigh as she turned around to face her sister. "This is my sister Erika," she said as the blonde smiled widely at Collin and Seth.
"Hello," Erika said, flipping her hair. The guys just nodded at her before looking back at Andrea.
"So, what are you here for?" I asked, just wanting to hear her voice again.
"Actually, I was just getting a new wardrobe for school," Erika cut in, as if the question was directed at her.
I just spared her a fleeting glance before looking back at Andrea. "I'm just along for the ride," she said with a smile and slight shrug. I grinned. So she doesn't like to shop? Sounds good to me. "What are you guys here for?" she asked curiously.
"New shoes," I said, glancing down at my feet. They were pretty torn up. It's hard ripping them off in time to phase!
"What did you guys do to those?" she asked with a stunned expression.
"It's hard to find good shoes, give us a break," Seth said with laugh before Andrea joined in, her laughter sounding like bells and completely over taking his.
"Come on Andrea, let's go," Erika muttered from behind Andrea. Oh yeah, I forgot she was there. Whoa wait. Go. Go where?
Andrea sighed and turned back to us, looking at me with reluctant eyes. "Sorry, it was nice meeting you," she said before turning and taking a step to follow Erika.
My hand immediately shot out and grabbed her hand, gently turning her around to face me again. "Can I have your number?" I asked quickly, hoping the desperation wasn't too clear in my voice.
She grinned widely, showing her perfect white teeth. "Sure," she said easily. I reluctantly dropped her hand and pried my phone out of my pocket before handing it to her.
She quickly entered in a number and flipped it shut before giving it back to me. "Thanks," I said as I stuffed it back in my jeans.
"I guess I'll talk to you later," she said with a smile.
"Yeah," I breathed as she walked away.
"I called dibs," Erika snapped as they walked away, not knowing we could still hear them.
"Sorry, it's not like I asked him to ignore you," Andrea said with a shrug.
"You didn't have to talk to him," she snapped back as they walked into another store and were drowned out by the noise of the other shoppers.
I sighed and turned back to the guys, who were staring at me with the weirdest expressions on their faces. "What?" I asked.
"Congratulations man," Seth said, clapping me on the shoulder.
"Yeah, wasn't sure if it would happen," Collin said with a nod.
I raised an eyebrow, clearly confused. "What are you guys talking about?" I asked.
Seth rolled his eyes. "You imprinting," he said slowly.
I blinked. Imprinting. Is that what just happened? The world blacking out in comparison to one person? "You think?" I asked.
"Brady, we've been around the guys long enough to know when someone's around their imprint-and you've just found yours," Seth said certainly. They both nodded to me before turning back to walk down the escalator.
"She had cool shoes," I heard Collin say absently. Wow. I imprinted…Now what?
Yay Brady's POV!! We'll get to some action in the next chappy!! REVIEW PLEASE!
