~A/N: Thanks for reviewing everyone!
We drove back to Jake's and I was starting to get the hang of directions. Well, at least from the dealership to Jakes.
We were pulling into Jake's driveway when I saw some people standing in the driveway.
I couldn't help but to wonder if Jake's girlfriend was here. I heard so much about her in the letters he wrote me, but he never seemed to send a picture.
"Hey guys." Jake said and went over to a tall, black haired Native American girl. She laughed as he scooped her up into a hug and kissed her.
I got out of the car slowly and stood by Paul, feeling kind of awkward.
"Bella?" someone said.
I looked over to the small group and found two tall muscular boys looking at me wide eyed.
I stared at them for a second before it clicked.
"Embry? Quil!"
They gave me a huge grin and we hugged each other.
"Good to see you! Wow, you guys have changed." I said, looking them over. They both rolled their eyes at me, but kept the smile plastered on their faces.
"You look good Bells. Paul being good to you?" Embry asked seriously.
I nodded and smiled, looking over my shoulder at him while he had a girl in his arms. "Only the best."
Jake came back to us with his girlfriend in his arms and smiled. "Bella, I would like you to meet Leah."
Leah looked at me with warming eyes and smiled. "Hi, I'm Leah Clearwater." She said, holding a hand out for me to shake.
I took it with a smile and nodded. "I thought you might be Jake's girlfriend. I have heard a lot about you. It's nice to meet you."
She laughed and kissed his cheek. "I have heard a lot about you too. As weird as this sounds, it feels like I already know you since Jake talks about you almost everyday."
I felt the awkwardness die down and I smiled. "Me too! But I must say, you are a lot prettier in person than he described in the letters."
She blushed and gave me a smile. "Thank you."
"Damn Paul. What did you do? Win the lottery?" Embry asked.
I turned around and smiled. They were talking about the cars.
"No, I wish. But Bella here decided to buy me a car." He smiled, along with the pretty Native American girl. She was a little shorter than Paul and had black hair like Leah.
"You bought him a car?" Quil asked shocked.
"Yep." I said embarrassed.
"Damn Bella, I love you." Quil coo-ed. I laughed and shook my head.
"Nice try Quil."
Everyone laughed and then I turned back to Paul.
"So are you going to introduce me, or do I have to do it myself?" I asked him. I saw a faint blush on his cheeks and he smiled down at his girl with loving eyes.
"Bella, this is the love of my life Emily. Emily, this is my long lost sister Bella."
I laughed at his introduction but smiled none the less.
"Hi Bella. I've heard a little bit about you these past days, so it's nice to meet you." She said kindly.
I blushed and shook her hand. "It's nice to meet you too. Paul's lucky to have you."
She smiled at me and then kissed Paul.
I turned my head to let them have a private moment, and decided to get my stuff out of the car.
I opened the back door and began to gather some bags.
"Need some help?" someone asked off to my side.
I turned around and stood face to face with an older teen, not quite as old as Jake and everyone, but still pretty hot looking. He reminded me a lot of Leah.
"Yea, thanks…" I said implying for him to give me a name.
"Seth." He said.
"Thanks Seth. I'm Bella by the way." I said, shaking his hand.
"Nice to finally meet you. Jake and Paul have been driving us all crazy with their Bella talk." He laughed lightly.
I smiled and gathered some bags to take into the house.
Seth and I began walking and talking, making my way to the house.
"You are living at Paul's?" Seth asked.
I smiled and nodded. "Yup."
Seth opened the door for me and I smiled. He was cute in a friend/ brother way.
We walked into the house, with our hands full of bags.
"Oh wait. I forgot to ask where I'm sleeping." I told him blushing.
He gave me a smile and opened the door to yell for Paul.
"Yo Paul! Where is Bella staying?"
"Upstairs. First door on the right!" Paul shouted back.
Seth nodded and began walking upstairs with me in tow.
"So how old are you?" he asked.
"19. You?"
"Ah, so you are only a few months younger than Paul. I'm 16." He told me from behind his shoulder.
Seth opened the white door and walked in.
The room was pretty big. It had white walls and dark hard wood flooring which had a chest and desk to match. The desk was right off to the left by the door and the chest was against the wall close by it. There was a bed, with the same dark wooden frame, off towards the end of the room, along with a white closet, that was at the opposite wall of the bed. There were square white windows placed throughout the room, which brought a little bit of sunlight into the room.
"Look." Seth said, pointing out the window.
I stood at the window, next to Seth and saw the beach.
It was beautiful. "That's first beach over there."
I nodded and watched as the waves washed over the light brown sand.
"Its breath- taking." I said, still looking out the window, while Seth began setting down the bags.
"Yea, it is." He said in agreement.
After a while, we began making trips back down the stairs and to my car; taking all the bags and putting them in my room.
When we were finished with all of our trip making, Seth began opening up all the windows while I opened the box to my black shiny iPod dock.
I quickly got it set up, sticking my iPod in the middle of the speakers and playing some music.
"Is this ok?" I asked, referring to the type of music.
Seth nodded and smiled. "Yea, I'm really into the Newer Pop kind of music. Actually I'm really into all Pop. Other things are ok, but I really just like Pop." He blushed.
I flashed him a huge smile and looked at him. "Me too. Pop is my favorite genre of music."
We dusted and cleaned the room while talking about random things. The room was pretty dirty. There were layers and layers of dust all over. You could tell nobody has lived in here a while.
While we were listening to 'What Goes Around…/…Comes Around' by Justin Timberlake, I began hearing the guys enter the house.
We worked for a while longer, talking and laughing before I heard Paul calling to us.
"Hey guys! Come on, we're about to eat!"
Seth put down his rag and walked away from the windows to the door
"You coming?" he asked, halfway out the door. The only part left of Seth was his head, which was barely sticking in my room.
I looked up from wiping down the desk and nodded. "Yea, I will be down a little later. Save me a plate will ya?" he nodded to me and walked down.
I smiled to myself as I began opening all the paint stuff. Seth was pretty cool. He was easy to be around with and a lot of fun.
I poured some of the light lavender color looking paint into its tray and began rolling the brush into it.
Once it was covered with paint, I stuck it to the wall and began rolling up and down.
I worked fast, finishing almost the whole left wall till Paul came up.
He knocked on the opened door and walked in.
"You coming to eat? Clearwater saved you a plate."
"She did?" I asked. I didn't think Leah would be the caring type to see if I ate or not.
"Huh? No, Seth saved you one. He said that you were coming down in a little."
"Oh, Seth. Yea. He's related to Leah. How?" I asked, thinking out loud and then blushing. I guess I should have asked him that.
"They are brother and sister."
Duh Bella! I thought to myself as I rolled the paint on the wall.
"Anyways, you coming?" he asked, watching as I finished painting.
"Yup, I'm coming right now."
I set the paint roller back in the tray and turned off the dock.
Paul waited for me and the put a hand on my lower back, guiding me downstairs.
"Hey. Thought you were never going to come down." Jake said, swallowing his food.
"Sorry, I just wanted to start painting." I said, walking over to the fridge.
I grabbed my plate and sat down, listening to everyone's conversations.
I mostly talked to Seth and sometimes Leah and Emily.
They all seemed really nice. They thought it was great I was back and happy to have me.
"So I saw Jared today." Jake said with a huff.
"Who?" I asked as I felt the room shift.
"Jared Pent (A/N: Sorry, made it up.). He used to be our friend till he went with Sam." Paul gritted.
"Why?" I asked them.
They all shrugged their shoulders and Leah spoke up.
"We all don't know. One day he goes home with a high fever. He misses some school and then he starts following Sam." She said, rubbing Jakes arm.
I nodded and decided to change the topic.
"So I was thinking…since Jake, you said you would help me make myself at home, want to come help me finish painting?" I smirked.
He raised an eyebrow and rolled his eyes. "I'm not really getting a choice am I?"
"Well…I thought it was worth a shot. Be nice and courteous." I laughed.
Jake knew me too well. Usually I would tell him what I needed. And if he said know, I would just bug him long enough, till he would eventually give in and do whatever I needed him to.
"Fine." He said, huffing.
After I finished eating, Seth, Jake and I headed up to my new room.
As Jake began painting the walls, Seth and I moved the furniture to the middle of the room. Then we put together my floor lamp and turned it on. It made the room a lot brighter and helped us see the walls.
Seth grabbed some brushes as I got the paint and then handed me one. I flashed him a smile and began working on the other big wall with him.
'I Kissed A Girl' by Katy Perry started playing and Jake sung his lungs out.
Seth and I looked at each other before bursting out laughing. Jake continued to sing, smiling as we laughed.
He jumped on the bed and began using the paint roller as a microphone. He moved his foot up and down to the beat and moved around the bed like a rock star.
"What is going on here?" Paul asked.
We all looked towards the door and found everyone looking behind Paul.
Seth and I laughed harder as Jake turned beat red.
Leah looked like she was trying not to laugh, but was failing miserably.
All of the guys were laughing while Emily giggled quietly.
Jake jumped down from the bed and cleared his throat.
"I'm just going to go continue to paint." He said, still beat red.
Leah came over to him as his back faced us, and hugged him.
"Nice singing." She commented, snickering.
Everyone let out a chuckle, but quickly turned away as he looked at us.
The song 'Misery Business' by Paramore started playing and this time, I couldn't help but sing along.
Paramore was one of my favorite bands, and she had such great songs.
I didn't take my eyes off the wall as we painted; knowing they all started looking at me.
My head beated along to the song and soon Seth was doing the same.
I looked over to him and smiled. Soon, we were facing each other, using our paint brushes as microphones as singing to the lyrics.
It was getting dark and the room was finished. We all went downstairs and chilled in the kitchen.
Everyone soon said their goodbyes and walked out the door.
Seth was the last to head out and say goodbye.
"Bye B. Thanks for tonight. It was fun" He said, hugging me.
I relaxed into his arms and hugged him back. "Haha, Thank you Seth! You were a huge help. See you soon?"
He pulled away and flashed me the brightest smile with his white pearly teeth. "Definitely."
He gave Paul a manly hug and then was out the door, running to catch up with his sister.
"So?" Paul asked.
"It was amazing. I love it. They were all really nice and Emily is amazing. Seth is awesome too! He was so nice and friendly." I continued to blab to him while we walked into the living room, sitting on the couch to watch a movie.
He smiled at me and listened to everything I had to say.
"Leah is perfect for Jake and I couldn't believe Embry and Quil. They were so big and tall!"
He laughed and put a hand on my arm. "Take a breath Bella. They aren't going anywhere."
I sucked in a deep breath and smiled with content.
The rest of the night Paul and I watched a movie.
I leaned closer to him, curling my body against his and covered a blanket with my body.
He kept an arm around me and continued to watch the movie.
I soon felt my eyes flutter shut, and I went fast to sleep.
