When we pulled up to this house surrounded by trees I can surley feel the connection with nature. I never been in a place like this before. The perfect timber work on the home gives me this feeling of freedom. I've been in the swamps back in Louisiana, but the moss trees has nothing on the true color of pinecones. I can't see why Nessie would prefer a home in the city over this. And seeing the brute, Seth, my friend's boyfriend, and the other unknown buddies hanging around in ripped blue jeans and no shirt is PERFECT to scenery. Not only that, but the one on Jacob's left. He looks so familiar. He looks so unique from the others. He looks like someone. The spitting image of someone. But who. His tight chest with his ripped denims and warn-out shoes just makes his tough guy show. With his hair reaching to his shoulder blade that buldges. WAIT! IS HE STARING AT ME?

"Hey Jakey", squeled Nessie running up to what she calls her mate.

"Sup Pumpkin", he replyed with a huge smile and his huge arms wrapping around her small waist. You would think that they are iilegaly dating compared to their size towards eachother, but age wise, I guess these cutie names are acceptable. I think.

"Wooooooow. You two are just the perfect show for toddlers", I said clapping in applause to their names.

"Yea, Jakey and Pumpkin need to get a room. (After Jacob squeezes Nessie's butt)I think the show is getting a little over rated for toddlers.", said this guy that was standing on the left of Jacob before he ran to Nessie for their melodramatic act of love.

"True that", said the other guys which all seem to go in the house and ignore their act.

"What's your name?", said the tall one with a childlike face from the front right of Jacob. He's definatley the baby.

"Call me Missy."

"He asked for your name.", said the one that looked like he had a bad attitude on him. He better fix it or I'll straighten it out for him.

"What if I don't want him to know my damn name."

"Who do you think your talking too", he said moving so close in front of me until we breathed eachothers breath.

"Oh I don't know. Probably the dummy in front of me."

"Shut up little girl."

"Girl. Oh please, I am more mature then your overgrown ass."

He stood there starring at me again, but this time with curiousity.

"What", I asked with annoyance.

"You aren't scared of me."

"No. You should be scared of me", I said with a No-Duh tone to my statement. All the guys began to laugh. And the girl, I'm guessing is Leah came out the door with a bitter sweet expression. That all of a sudden brighten-up by my words.

"I like her. Where'd you find this one Renesme?"

"Guys and Leah this is my best budd Aida Tehyanna Stubbs."

"Your a little late Nessie", I said.

"I don't like her", said the stupid boy who looks so familiar.

"Shut up Embry", yelled Jacob.

"EMBRY. Your name is Embry? Wow, I see why your so pissy", I said hoping I pissed him off even more. After my comment everyone stopped and tensed looking at him with caution. What the hell is going on?

"FYI Embry is my great great grandfather's name. And like AIDA(Aid-u) is normal."

"IFY It's pronounced I-E-Da and it's my great great grandmother's African name."

"Like Missy will cover that up."

"I hate you already."

"Go to hell."

"I'm already there since I see you."

"Alright you two. That's enough. I see you've met a new...", said a man coming through the door in a wheel chair smiling at Embry and pausing at the sight of me.I know chocolate brown girl with red hair and hazzle eyes. Don't stare old man. Why is a big smile growing on his face?

"Missy, Sir. And your name is?", he looked at me with excitment filled in his eyes.

"Southern respects. I love it. She's a keeper. The names Billy Black, but just call me Billy."

"Yes, sir... I mean okay Billy. That has to become a habbit."

"Yes. Well that does. Embry you wouldn't introduce her to the family?"

"I'm not with that geek", I bluntly explained.

"Oh. I thought she was with you since you..."

"She's with me Billy.", Carlie quickly interupted. What? What was he about to say? Is he the one that made that comment? It can't be him. He's not ugly, but he sure as hell don't care what comes out of his mouth. OMG it is him.

Why is he still looking at me like that. He looks hungry. In his dark brown eyes that match his hair they set to an even darker tone almost black. He seems to be concentrating on something. His strong squared jaw began to stiffen and his body began to tense, yet his eyes... there so familiar. And from where I'm standing somthing else tensed below.

"Is something wrong, egg-head", I asked with a bit of agitation.

"Yea, how are you so brown and still have red hair."

"I'm not answering that."

"Bitchy much"

"Bitch you want. A bitch you shall get."

I heard laughing all around me and his mouth dropping.

"Who are you?"

This question catching me off gaurd as well. Wondering if we met before. I pretend I didn't hear his question and walked into this dream home.

I complemented Jacob and Billy's home. And in reply I kept getting comments back that was very example the conversation with Billy.

"I love how the home fits the scenery."

"Yes hopefully soon you'll have one as well."
I notice that Billy doesn't hold his thoughts very well.

Everyone seemed to love having me around especially the two cousins, Emily and Leah, which suprisingly is getting along. And Seth and I are warming up just a little, but Embry just haven't said one word since we had that argument outside.

"What's going on in that head of yours?", I mumbled hoping no one heard me. And soon as you know it he got up and left out the door. It's not that easy buddy.I ran behind him while everyone in the house were drinking and laughing over some embarrasing picture of Jacob in a werewolf costume when he was 7.

"Stop", I commanded. AND HE DID.

"What do you want from me?"

"Answers."

"Like what. Your just some stupid visitor. You won't understand."

"Help me understand why you are acting so damn hostile."

"I said you won't understand."

"And I said help me understand. You just met me. Why are you not doing what everyone else is doing? Why are you leaving when everyone inside is having fun?"

"Do you want me to stay?", he said softening his jaw.
How am I suppose to answer that. 'Yes stay I've fallen madley in love with you and all it took was one glimpse to know you inside and out.' I'd sound like a maniac.

"I...I...I think you should stay. Are you always this miseable?"

"I'm not miserable. I'm just going for a walk."

"It's freezing you need more closeth than that or else your just asking for a cold.", he started laughing.

"Go home little girl. Fantasies aren't made for non-believers."

"What is the fantasy to believe?"

"Do you always care for someone you just met?"

"No"

"Then why are you worrying so much about me? As you can see I am an outsider."

"That I can't explain. And I'm not? Did you look at me? I'm black for God's sake and I have hair of an Irish person! You don't think I feel like an outsider."

"Whatever."

"At least you can look like you fit in somewhere."

"Go away. (Whispering to himself) Your too much for me."

"What is that suppose to mean?"
He began to slowly breath in and breath out. His rage firing up and his chest quickly moving. Struggling to slow his breathing.

"You come to our land twisting and throwing your straight red hair over your candy brown skin. You come here interrupting my work with your walk. You come here sweetening my air with your breath and pulling my vision into your hazzel eyes. You come here interesting my eyes in your every curve. Who do you think you are? You are far from normal. Your ways is rich like chocolate. Leave little girl. Men don't carry candy around."

He was thinking about me this whole time. Being angry that I interested him. No, he is not a normal man. He's not an unknown man to me. I know him yet don't. I feel for him and don't know how. He thinks that I am a girl because he finds my small concepts sweet.

"In that forum men are boys. If a girl to you is like candy. Then a man should as well be a boy wanting that candy. Or else there would be no childhood for that boy. Just like a mans candy would be a woman. No manhood for that man. Don't mistreat or misuse them; absence of good candy leads to tears of a boy, absence of a good women leads to destroyed life of a man."

"Your point?"

"Man is no man without a woman. Walk your ass in there because I want you to stay until I leave."

"Yes, mam", he said with dark hunger written in his eyes again.

Many hours have passed and it was time for me to leave so I could be home for 9. At least have time to clean my room like I promised. Nessie called Alice and we said our good byes and left for the night. My night to remember. The night I met Embry.
