Paul slung his arm over my shoulder as we walked to the truck; I could feel the wind, but not the cold that usually comes with it. We trudged our way to the truck. Paul fumbled for the key, and shoved it into the lock. I got in; feeling the cold attack me as Paul left my side to get in the drivers' seat.

"You alright?" He asked

I nodded, "Can you turn on the heater?"

He flicked the switch, and it blew out dusty warm air. "Sorry it's full of dust, I haven't used it in a while."

I pulled a face at him, "Yeah cos your freakishly warm, tall and huge!"

He pulled me toward him, so he could keep me warm. I shuffled back into my seat. "I'm a big girl, I can handle the cold. Plus the heaters on" I said defiantly.

He sighed and turned the key in the ignition. The old truck rumbled to life and we drove back toward my house.

Man, he always looks so wounded every time I try to have space. Or even try to get him to back off a little.

I bit my lower lip, sighing frustratedly. I sat in silence staring out the window, the truck stopped and I realised we were at my house. I got out of the truck and went inside. Paul followed.

I stood awkwardly in the lounge; I pushed my fringe out of my eyes and looked down at my feet.

"Well, um thanks. Uh I'm gonna go get changed." I said and went to my room, closing the door behind me. I leaned against the door, taking a deep breath. How can I possibly reject this guy? I know he's sweet, but he's so OBSESSIVE!

I dragged my wet clothes off and dumped them in the corner, I shivered and quickly pulled on a shirt and sweat pants. I slipped my feet into slippers and wrapped my hair in a towel before walking back out into the lounge. Paul was sitting on the window seat, gazing intently out the window; I sat down next to him.

"What you lookin' at?" I asked, I couldn't see anything of interest. Just houses and a very grey sky. He ignored me and continued to stare out the window. Then I heard the howl of a wolf cut through the air.

"Holy shit! Was that a wolf?" I asked frantically.

Paul nodded, "Don't worry they'd never hurt you." He stood up and looked at me wistfully, "I have to go," He said and disappeared out the door.

I frowned, "Bloody hell guys are confusing!"

I scowled at nothing in particular, just anything that I could scowl at really. Today I had to go to School, La Push Reservation High School to be exact. Apparently home schooling is not an option with my mother, 'It's important to make friends and socialise.'

"I hate this damned town," I muttered under my breath. "I want to go home to Kaitaia, where normal people live."

I shoved the last spoonful of cereal in my mouth, and dumped my bowl in the sink. I plodded my way to the bathroom, and began my morning 'wake myself up' ritual. I splashed my face with cold water, shivering from the cold. I scrubbed my face and rinse off all the foam. I stared at my reflection scornfully, my cheeks were pink from the cold and my light tan was already begging to fade from lack of sunlight.

I slung my backpack over my shoulder and headed for the lounge, I sank down into the armchair across from Mum.

Mum looked up from her book, "Dad has a surprise for you outside" She said and continued reading.

"What is it?" I asked, looking at her suspiciously.

"You'll have to go and find out," She said without looking up from her book.

I groaned and got up; I pulled my coat on before going outside. I stepped out side, and saw Dad grinning like the Cheshire cat. I put my hands on my hips, and tapped my foot impatiently.

"Keep your hat on!" He said, "Come on you have to see this!"

"Ugh, is it really that important?"

"Yes it is, now hurry up" He said motioning for me to follow him.

I rolled my eyes and followed him around to the side of the house. Parked next to the house was a huge shiny black truck.

"So what'd you think? It's your early birthday present" He said still grinning from ear to ear.

"Oh my gosh! It's amazing!" I screamed excitedly.

"It's a brand spanking new Holden Colarado, four by four manual," He said.

"I have no idea what you just said, but cool! And it's shiny," I said running my hand over the smooth paintwork.

"So get in!" He said and tossed me the keys.

I pressed the button on the remote, the truck beeped and the doors unlocked. I got in and sat on the black leather seat; I put my hand on the steering wheel and grinned. I looked at the sound system in awe; it had everything I could possibly want. I grinned; I could get used to this. I leaned back into the seat.
"I think this is more comfortable than my bed!"
I launched myself out of the truck and flung my arms around my Dad.

"Thank you, thank you, thank you thank you!" I squealed.

"Could you thank me a little quieter, I think my ears are bleeding," He said giving my arms a squeeze.

"Sorry Dad, hey you do realise I don't have an American license right?"

He nodded, "Yup, but I doubt we'll see many cops up here. For one the sheriff lives in Forks and two nothing ever happens up here."

"So I can drive to school?" I asked cheerfully.

"Yeah I don't see why not, just take your New Zealand license in case, just say your a tourist" He said giving me a wave as he got in his truck to leave for work. I smiled to myself, and walked back inside.

"I take it you like your present then?" Mum said.

I nodded happily, and skipped to my room. I dug into bag and pulled out my I-pod, "You, my little friend can take a place of honour in my new truck."

I grabbed my camera and walked out to my truck, and snapped a shot of it. The girls are going to go crazy when they see this! I got into the drivers' seat, adjusting my mirrors and seat. I turned the key in the ignition, and the truck purred to life, nothing at all like Paul's noisy old truck. I plugged in my I-pod, turning the music up loud. I pulled out of the driveway drove toward the school. I tapped my fingers on the steering wheel in time with the thump of the music, smiling at the thought of pulling into school driving this.

I slowed down and pulled into the school parking lot. I scanned the area for an open park, finally finding one. Surprise surprise, next to Paul's beat up old truck. I saw some kids staring at me, or my truck as I drove past. I stopped in my park, pulling the key out of the ignition. I shoved my I-pod and camera into my bag. Hmm, I wonder if we're allowed electronics at school?

I got out of the truck, and looked around. I locked the truck and took a deep breath, before walking toward the front office. People were looking at me and whispering. I ignored them and marched on. The door creaked as I pushed it open, the receptionist looked up from her desk. She was an older lady, with a frumpy floral blouse on and thin wire framed glasses. I walked toward the desk slowly.

"Hello, I'm Waiata Nolan" I said with a smile.

She frowned at me, "Is that name supposed to mean something to me?" She snapped.

Sheesh, someone has their period! "Um, I guess not. I'm the new girl from New Zealand."

"Ah, the one that everyone's been talking about like wild fire," She said looking at me over her glasses.

I bit the inside of my cheek, Oh shit I CAN NOT be a hot topic! She sifted through a pile of papers, finally lifting out a small stack inside a clear file and handing it to me.

"That's your timetable and school intro pack that also has a map of the school" She said robotically.

"Thanks I said," and was about to walk away when she called to me.

"Oh and by the way, welcome to La Push High School."

I rolled my eyes and headed into the hallway. I stared down at the piece of paper telling me where my locker was.

"Number 147" I said under my breath. I looked up and saw Paul heading my way.

Oh great, here comes my welcoming committee.

He waved to me and smiled broadly, "Hey Wai, good to see you!" He said and put his arm over my shoulder.

I strained my neck to look up at him, "Hey Paul." I looked back at my sheet, "Where the hell is my locker?"

He looked at the number, "Have no fear my little bush baby, I know where it is!"

I pushed him away, "I'm not your 'bush baby'!" I yelled.

He pouted, but I ignored him. "But I thought..."

"No Paul, I don't want your help okay! I'm not your girl or your baby or what ever you think I am to you, got it?" I spat venomously. I stormed pat him, a few students snickered at me.

Oh my gosh! This boy thinks he can have what ever he wants! Doesn't he realise you actually have to ask a person to be their girlfriend?

I stopped and looked on the numbers on the lockers, 194, 195 196. Damn it I'm going the wrong way. I turned around, and could see Paul standing there where I'd left him. Oh shit! There has got to be another way around, I can't just walk past him. I sighed and began walking back.

Paul smiled, but I just brushed past him. I looked at the numbers, 186, 185. I walked around the corner, following the numbers. Suddenly I was on the ground. I looked up to see a tall blonde guy standing in front of me.

"Crap, sorry!" He said and offered me his hand.

Ugh, smooth It's my first day and I'm already making an idiot of myself. He pulled me up. I quickly dusted off my jeans and coat.

"Thanks, ugh I really should watch where I'm going" I said and smiled at him sheepishly.

He smiled back, "No problem, so your the new girl huh?"

I nodded "That would be me, I think I should just get it tattooed to my head or something."

He shook his head, "No, you couldn't do that. It would ruin that pretty little face."

I felt my cheeks flush with embarrassment. "Um."

He laughed "Aw that's cute, your blushing. You'd think you weren't used to compliments or something!"

You have no idea. "You could say that."

"Oh, by the way my names Brad."

"I'm Waiata, but just call me Wai" I said smiling at him.

"Well then Wai, would you like some help?" He asked.

"Sure, I could probably do with a tour guide" I said with a grin.
