Dear Journal,

The first week wasn't so bad, things got better...I think. I managed to sit at a table with people Thursday. I was mostly ignored except by a girl named Sarah and a guy named Jason. Samantha is really nice and gorgeous - probably the prettiest girl on the reservation - and everyone seems to know it but her! She is really sweet and doesn't let all the compliments go to her head; in fact, most of the time she acts like she doesn't deserve them, but I know she does. I swear, I've never gotten as many "you look beautiful today" in my life as she got in one day.

Jason is her twin brother, but I wouldn't go so far as to say he is just as attractive as her. I guess he has potential to be hot but he still has that baby-face kind of look. It's cute but not 'hot'. But I hear boys don't stop growing until they are in their twenties, so I won't be too judgmental on his looks. He has kinda long black hair (like lots of the other guys) and keeps it pulled back in a ponytail. Maybe that's why he's not real high on my "Hottest Guys in La Push" list; I never really liked guys with long hair.

Well, since I brought up 'the list' I might as well give it some space here.

Hottest Guys in La Push

1. Daniel Uley: mostly because his hair is short, cut in that surfer-style, and his eyes are so deep and rich. His grandpa is Sam Uley and one of the biggest leaders in La Push but I don't know why. On the down side, he has a girlfriend and is a little arrogant. He's also apart of that boy-pack.

2. Jackson Steele: maybe because his mom was white so it doesn't make me feel so out of place when I see his blue eyes and light hair. He's single but I hear he has his eye on a girl (plus, tons of girls already have their eyes on him).

3. Cole Clearwater: another La Push legacy, not as gorgeous as the rest but I wouldn't mind having him in my Prom picture. He's single too but too quiet and another member of the boy-pack.

4. Kyle Langley: just another pretty face. Don't really know much about him except he is exceptionally good looking.

5. Jason Black: The last on my list, but it's possible he is only here because he has actually been nice to me.

So there you have it, but those are only the boys in La Push. I haven't seen much of Forks – at least its teenagers – except on one occasion. I was at the store with my mom, she was looking for a new hair blow dryer or something, I can't remember. What I do remember was the person that would be at the top of my list 1) if he lived in La Push and 2) if I knew his name...his full name I mean.

He was gorgeous, not that I'm one for the model-perfect type but sometimes you just have to admit when you see a good one. He had strawberry blonde hair, which was spiked, and amazing topaz eyes. It's really hard to describe him beyond repetitive adjectives so I won't even try. Just picture the most perfect, beautiful man you have ever seen, times that by a thousand and you've got Mr. Mystery.

Well, not completely a mystery: I know he is affiliated with the Wolfes. That's about it. I don't know why the Quileutes would be worried about them? Pretty boys don't seem like the blood-sucking type to me, at least not this one. Though I would say his really pale skin fit the stereotype (but that's it). He also seemed to know I was watching but didn't care. It kind of annoyed me. Maybe he's just used to being stared at.

Just before we left I saw he was joined by another couple just as gorgeous as him but...different. The girl had red hair like me but was unbelievably beautiful, way prettier than Sarah, but in a different way. It was really strange, but she seemed almost too pretty. And the guy with her was really big (as in built) but looked like someone I would see on the reservation: black hair, tanned skin. It was an odd sight, but I didn't say anything.

I tried to gather a little bit of information today and all I could get out of Grandpa was "It's worse than the Cullens because one of ours is with them. It's just wrong." I assumed he met the dark one. "What's more, I have on good account that there are five of them with that Hybrid too. And even more, Jacob said they would keep a close watch on 'the one in training'." Jacob? I'm pretty sure that would be the dark one. It was all confusing. Grandpa was just frustrated. I let it go.
