Sky's POV

Friday was the first time I received the full blast of the La Push weather, as it seemed the heavens opened and attempted to drown all of those beneath.

As I had been running between classes Chris had stopped me to tell me that there was a party on the beach Saturday night and if I wanted I could catch a lift with him. I had told him that I was already busy without even permitting myself to speak. Was I already busy?

I mean sure Paul had asked me out, but was I going to go?

Chris had been fine about me saying I was busy and wouldn't be going and had begun to walk away as I stood there thinking about Paul… His cocky grin had flashed through my mind and his sure voice that I would be going out with him Saturday night. It was with that, that I shouted after Chris that I wasn't entirely sure yet and if I changed my mind or needed a lift I'd give him a ring.

I thought it would be best to keep my options open.

To my surprise Erin had asked me what I was going to wear on my date with Paul excitedly, which made me look at her in confusion.

Surely Paul hadn't been telling everyone that I was supposedly going on a date with him, when I had never fully agreed to go.

I'd asked her what made her think I was going out Saturday night with Paul of all people she'd looked at me with a blank expression before explaining that Seth had mentioned something to her. I'd told her she was wrong as was Seth and walked off.

I'd gotten a text from Jonnie as well telling me that Elle was okay and was staying with him. I was happy for them; I would have to ring Elle later to see how everything was really going considering Jonnie hadn't really gone into detail.

I had seen Paul briefly at lunch, he'd caught my eye across the room and smiled widely at me making my insides warm and I felt myself smile widely back at him before I realised what I was doing, I had turned and walked out of the canteen and walked to the edge of the woods for a cigarette when Embry had found me he just sat with me in silence under the cover of trees to try to prevent the rain from soaking us completely. I had found myself leaning against Embry and him wrapping and arm around my shoulders.

"Be happy Sky." He'd told me just before the bell went and we ran back through the rain towards the school for our last class Gym.

I got changed into my shorts and t-shirt and made my way into the large hall. Erin had wandered over and smiled at me, I'd apologised for walking off earlier in the day much to her surprise, but I'd realised that she'd only been trying to be nice.

Paul had walked in without meeting my eyes and walked over to a tall girl with curly dark brown hair, I felt myself frown and my eyes narrow when he done this and then I forced my face into a blank expression before anyone could see. I turned and went to sit on the stands. Mr Cartly had come over and sat next to me telling me I had to join one of the teams. I'd turned to him and subtly pulled my tight revealing t-shirt further down and grinned wickedly as I saw his eyes drift to my chest then snap back to my face with a stern expression on his face.

"Sky, you need to go and join a team." He'd told me again I had smeared my most winning smile onto my face before I had replied "But sir I could think of so many better ways of spending my time, especially if you were to be with me." I had lowered my voice and moved closer to him as I spoke. He had stared at me in disbelief before I stood bent over to retie my shoe lace, I heard him cough uncomfortably and jump to his feet, as I stood back up straight I'd turned to him with an innocent smile on my face and asked if there was anything wrong. He'd just told me to join a team again, I had winked at him before I walked off the stands with a slight sway to my hips, and the majority of the hall had been watching the exchange between me and Mr Cartly, Embry glared at me harshly as did Paul from where he stood, I looked away from his gaze quickly feeling guilt well inside me for some unknown reason.

The rest of the class had passed quickly with the only interesting occurrence being when Paul had thrown a ball and 'accidently' hit Mr Cartly in his crown jewels. He had been grinning broadly as he apologised, he didn't look the least bit sorry. I had caught Paul's eye and grinned widely at him to which he winked and I laughed loudly.

I smiled as I thought of Paul.

It was Saturday night and I now stood before my bed with two outfits laid on it.

One was for the beach party the other was my thing with Paul (yes the date).

I still wasn't sure if I wanted to go out with Paul tonight. It was at this point Embry walked through my door and flopped down onto my bed dressed in jeans and a light blue t-shirt.

"You're a dick." I told him flatly.

"What have I done now? I just came in to see if you were getting ready for that date with Paul tonight." He told me smirking as my face hardened.

"How does everyone know." I demanded.

"You'll start to see that not may things stay secret within our friends. Obviously we do have some but word gets around." He said smiling.

"Well I never agreed to going with him he just assumed that my 'I'll think about it' was a yes. I mean he's so cocky and self righteous it's beyond annoying!" I ranted.

"You do realise you just described yourself right?" Embry asked cheekily.

I grabbed the nearest thing to me and threw it at his head, it happened to be a hairbrush which he caught quickly.

"Calm down Sky. I know you're just nervous that you might not have chosen the right outfit!" he said in a girly voice.

"Em. Your not funny, and you know me, I don't get nervous." I told him bluntly as I picked up all the clothes he'd lain on since he'd rolled over to the other side of my bed now.

"So what you gonna go for?" he asked me seriously.

"Embry, what the fuck is with you? Since when do you care what I might be wearing out with Paul tonight?" I asked him angrily.

"So you are going out with him tonight then." He stated with an evil smirk.

So he wanted to wind me up did he? Well two can play your fucking game brother.

"Well since you're so interested in what I will be wearing tonight, what's Paul's favourite colour?" I asked him sweetly.

"Oh no your not gonna do the whole wear his favourite colour to try to please him are you? Because that's just shameful!" He stated in horror.

"Well maybe favourite colour was the wrong question, how about what colour would look best on his bedroom floor?" I asked innocently and grinned when Embry's face went blank and seemed to pale slightly.

"What?" he asked sharply his eyes narrowing.

"Well I was just wondering what colour underwear I should wear, and it has to match his room obviously as that's where their going to end up." I told him grinning.

"You're not going out with him tonight." Embry said in a furious voice.

"What's the problem Embry? A minute ago you were more than happy to find out that I was in fact going out with Paul tonight." I said in mock confusion.

"You're such a bitch Sky." He stated finally catching on to the fact that I was getting back at him for trying to wind me up.

"And you brother are gullible, although maybe I wasn't joking…" I told him with a suggestive smile on my face.

"I'm your brother stop saying things like that. Or you are not leaving this house! Just behave yourself tonight okay!" he shouted at me.

"Seriously Em I'm not going to be putting out after one night." I told him.

"I know. Just… yeah… please." He mumbled before he walked out.

I would never say it out loud but I was kind of scared about tonight. Any other time a guy had taken me out was to go get wasted and I had never felt anything for them. Paul… he made me smile.

And it scared me, that warm feeling he gave me, like even the thought of him put me in a happy mood.

Embry's words from yesterday echoed through my mind 'Be happy Sky'.

I sighed and changed into denim shorts a white vest I pulled on a brown jumper that only connected at my waist; I then slipped my feet into a pair of brown booties that had a platform and a thick heel, I left my hair down and slightly wavy, I put powder on face a slight touch of bronzer on my cheeks, dark eye makeup and just a clear gloss for my lips.

I looked into the mirror that hung on one of the walls and smiled at what I saw, this wasn't something I would normally wear, true my legs were out as was a bit of cleavage but I was dressed quite modestly compared to how I would usually dress for a night out.

I glanced over at my phone where it was charging and saw the time flash on the screen, 6.45. So I had another 15 minutes till Paul was supposed to be here, I walked downstairs and saw Jake, Quil, Embry and Aunt Helen stood in the kitchen talking quietly.

"Not interrupting am I?" I asked harshly as I walked through towards the back door and taking out a cigarette and lighting it, I stood in the doorway as I blew the smoke out into the night.

"Oh sweetie you look lovely." Aunt Helen gushed as she came over to me and kissed my cheek.

"Yeah you really do Sky." Embry said smiling.

"What is this? 'Try to boast my already inflamed self confidence?'" I asked bitchily.

"I was just saying that you look nice, I'm sure Paul will think so too." Embry said smiling cheekily at me.

I moved my shorts down slightly and raised my dark red lacy underwear further up over my hip. "Dya think it will go Em?" I asked him with a smirk.

"Keep them on." Was his deadly reply before I raised my eyebrows and walked outside. "I mean it." He called after me.

I sat on the back step and took another pull on the cigarette allowing the smoke to calm my heightened nerves. Nerves were something I was relatively familiar with yet, I never showed them, and they were a wicked form of weakness and emotion, it wasn't right to show either of those. So I kept that one locked away too. I wasn't nervous about many things though, I suppose I was kind of nervous about tonight, I didn't know what to expect and the thought of maybe feeling an emotion I didn't want, well it scared me slightly.

Helen dropped down next to me. "He's right you know, keep them on girlie!" She laughed before she added on quickly. "No matter how hot Paul is."

"Helen!" I laughed in shock.

"What you don't think I can notice a good looking guy?" She asked laughing.

"He's Embry's friend." I countered.

"Yet you had no problem making out with him yesterday…" She trailed off smirking at me.

"Well what can I say it's been a little while." I tried to laugh but it came out a harsher than I wanted, more forced.

"You have a long time left for that sort of thing Sky. And I know you don't wanna hear it and you don't care but your fifteen years old…" She trailed off sadly as she stroked my hair and pulled me towards her into a hug.

"I'm nearly sixteen and lets be honest you weren't any better." I said quietly hoping I hadn't offended her.

She laughed loudly.

"I'm sorry, that wasn't the nicest thing to say." I mumbled.

"It's the truth, besides I heard a lot worse than that… believe me… and since we're on honesty, Paul?" She said.

"Paul?" I asked and she nodded. "What do you want me to say? That I feel something because I don't, I don't feel Helen!" I exclaimed.

"You do Sky. You really do." She told me quietly kissing the top of my head.

"I don't want to." I murmured.

"I know. But you still do, I get that it's a hard thing to accept but maybe Paul could help." She suggested.

"Help? He's not some secret shrink you've hired to try to sort my fuck up head out is he?" I laughed.

"I think he could be good for you." She said smiling at me as she pulled away and held onto my face looking into my eyes.

I took another pull of my cigarette before I threw it off the porch.

"Good for me? How dya work that one out?" I asked her sarcastically.

"He understands what you're going through a lot more than you realise." She said softly.

"How?" I asked doubtfully.

"You're not the only one with family issues." She said with a fixed jaw. She leaned in kissed my forehead before standing and walking inside again.

I sat there confused. I know I'm not the only one with problems with family but Paul just didn't seem like the type to have anything else going on, but then it was none of my business what went on in his life.

I wonder if he'd ever want to talk about things?

What?

I did not seriously just think that. Talk. Things.

I shook my head and stood I took a few deep breaths, as I walked back inside, just as their was a knock on the front door, as I started to walk to get it I saw Embry run down the stairs and to the door before I'd made it two steps.

"Paul." He greeted in a stern voice.

"Embry." Paul responded you could hear him trying to refrain from laughing at Embry's no doubt attempt at intimidating face.

"Em give it up." I called as I walked into the hall way, he turned to glare at me as did Paul excepted he didn't glare his eyes ran from my shoes to my eyes his smile widening as he went I felt myself smile back.

"Oh remember the last time we were all here?" Jakes cheerful voice called as he and Quil came down the stairs fighting off laughter, as Embry, Paul and I glared at them.

"Jacob Black!" Aunt Helen shouted loudly making Jake jump.

"Sorry." He called into the front room with a frightened look on his face.

"Aren't you guys going to the beach party?" I asked them with raised eyebrows.

"Yeah but not until about eight." Quil said.

"Okay well can you all fuck off now." I asked sweetly.

They just smirked back at me.

"Fine, be awkward shits, I'll see you later." I told them before I turned to Embry. "Well maybe a lot later." I said with a smirk.

"Keep them on." He spat at me.

"Not making any promises!" I called with a laugh as I followed Paul out to his truck.

"Have a nice time kids!" I heard Helen yell while Embry stood on the porch spluttering profanities.

"Don't worry Em! I'll see you later!" I shouted he just nodded back at me.

Paul and I climbed into his truck and turned towards each other at the same moment.

"So… movie?" he asked.

"As long as you don't make me sit through some shitty chick flick, I feel like watching some extravagant explosions tonight." I told him.

"Thank god!" He exclaimed.

"What don't you like the sickeningly sweet romance films where the inevitable happens and they fall in love through sappy scenes and unrealistic situations?" I asked him mockingly.

"Seems were on the same page there." He laughed.

"Their alright every now and then don't get me wrong, but give me blood and thrills any day." I told him.

He just smiled even brighter at me as his truck pulled out of the drive way and onto the road.

"So where's the closest cinema?" I asked him.

"Port Angles I'm afraid, bit of a drive ahead of us." He said with a weird expression on his face.

"Well I'm sure if you put your foot down we'll make it there in no time!" I told him laughing.

"But what if we get pulled over by cops?" he asked smirking at me.

"Don't worry I can handle coppers." I told him with a devious grin on my face to which he laughed loudly.

"Your so English! 'Coppers'." He mimicked.

"It doesn't sound right in your voice." I told him dismissively. "And I'm American actually!"

"Really?" he asked.

"Yeah I was born here and I lived here till I was 4. Then they moved us to England." I told him and then looked out the window.

"But your back now, look on the bright side." He said reaching over and taking my hand and squeezing it. I turned and looked him square in the eye. "Yeah I guess." I said before we both let go of each other.

"So I was thinking after the movie we could go back to La Push and go to the beach party?" Paul asked.

"Yeah that would be great, we wont get there till a lot later though." I said.

"Don't worry I'm sure it will still be going." He assured me to which I nodded my head.

"What colours your bedroom?" I asked him suddenly.

"Why?" he asked chuckling lightly.

"To annoy Embry." I told him grinning, he laughed loudly at this.

"You're gonna end up giving him a heart attack! And I'm not telling you." He told me.

"Why not?" I asked him sending him a seductive smile.

"Because I'm pretty sure you'll find out for yourself soon enough." He told me with heat in his eyes.

"We'll see." I told him.

"Oh we will for sure." He replied smirking.

Our conversation flowed easily for the rest of the drive it wasn't nearly as awkward as I had previously anticipated, it was much to my surprise nice, just talking, about nothing of any importance just general shit. Within what seemed like no time at all Paul was pulling the truck to a stop in a huge parking lot next to what I presumed was the cinema. He got out and rushed round to my door and opened it for me before I had the chance.

"Thanks." I said warily before stepping out and straightening my clothes.

"You look really beautiful." He told me softly, he looked away from me quickly as though he were worried as to what my reaction would be. I ran my eyes over his form once again; dark jeans and a white t-shirt that made his body look just as amazing as it was, I felt myself grin appreciatively.

"You don't look too bad yourself Blate." His face whipped round to face me with a suspicious expression while an excited look danced through his eyes.

"I'll take that as a compliment Call, now are we going to see a movie or not?" He asked with a grin.

"If we really have to." I sighed and started walking towards the entrance, I felt him walk next to me and his hand hovered next to mine, take his hand! A voice screamed at me, I bit my lip as I considered what that might mean to him… he took my hand before I'd finished listing the pros and cons of taking his hand.

I didn't look at him, but twined my fingers with his… I could feel his eyes on me but I just stared ahead trying not to glance at him.

As we came closer to the building the number of people surrounding us increased and more eyes turned and watched us.

We did stand out amongst the rest of the crowds, Paul being as tall and muscled as he was, and it appeared I was the only one who decided to brave the shorts in the cold wet weather. Many of the girls looked at Paul longingly to which I sent them glares and gripped his hand tighter within my own, he looked down at my questioningly but I merely shook my head to which he smiled before he glared at something over my head.

I turned to see what he was sending a death look towards and saw a group of guys who looked to be roughly late teens early twenties, their eyes ran over my frame from the front until they caught sight of the look Paul was giving them they all looked away quickly.

"Jealous much?" I asked him teasingly.

"What do you think?" He grumbled, I just laughed and pulled him through the entrance.

"Don't worry, a few of them were a bit too short for me." I told him, he looked at me with a smirk.

"So you like them tall eh?" He asked with a cocky grin as he leaned down towards me.

"Oh yea, no one shorter… ever. Basic rules ya know." I told him, staring into his eyes, smirking.

"Yeah I get what you mean, except she'd have to be shorter than me." He laughed, his eyes never leaving mine.

"Just as well your so tall then." I whispered.

"For who? Me or you?" he asked a glint of amusement in his eyes.

I just laughed and walked towards the ticket counter.

"So you choose what you wanna see." He said gesturing to the boards with all the showing times. There was a showing of a film that showed promise of being a fast paced action thriller filled with adrenaline, explosions and guns, that was due to start in fifteen minutes.

"Judging by the look on your face we're going to see 'Dusk Till Dawn' right?" Paul asked with a grin, I nodded. "I was hoping you'd choose that one." He laughed.

He paid for both of our tickets and some popcorn and drinks, as we made our way into the screen Paul led me towards the back row, while many sets of eyes followed us as we walked.

"This okay for you?" he asked as we sat on the far left side of the back row.

"Yeah here's fine at least you won't be blocking the view of anyone behind you." I laughed.

"Your just jealous that your as short as you are." He quipped back.

"That's where heels come into the equation, besides I like my height." I told him sharply.

"So heights a touchy subject with you then." He teased.

"Hardly." I replied it wasn't a touchy subject I just didn't like being called short. "Besides we can't all be freakishly tall." I told him with an evil glint in my eye as he laughed at me.

The room then darkened as the trailers stopped playing and the film started, it was as I had thought it would be full of action and explosions right from the start. About thirty minutes into the film a group of teenagers, who looked to be about sixteen/seventeen walked into the screen, they walked up the right side steps and came along the row disturbing everyone as they went till they stopped next to me.

"You're in our seats move." One girl with light brown hair said rudely as she stood next to me.

"Come again?" I asked her in my bitchiest tone.

"You heard her; those are our seats, move or else." The blonde haired boy who was stood near her hissed at me.

"Shut your fucking mouth kid before I shut it for you." Paul growled through the dark at the boy.

"Don't threaten him." A girl with black hair snapped. "And as they said get out of our seats."

I stood up and faced the group.

"We were here first and seats aren't even allocated here, so run along before I beat the shit out of you." I told them in a low menacing voice.

"You don't scare me." The brown haired girl spat at me as she stared arrogantly at me and moved even closer towards me.

With the rising level of our voices the attention of the rest of the room had been brought to our confrontation at the back, someone had even got up to go and get an attendant.

I breathed deeply as I tried to refrain from hitting the girl, but the arrogant look on her face as she sneered at me was enough to send my anger off the edge.

"Wrong answer." I told her sweetly before I let my fist snap forward and collide with her face before my other fist hit the other side of her face as she went falling towards the floor. The black haired girl gasped before she launched forward and grabbed onto my hair pulling harshly, I felt another larger hand grip one of my wrists tightly before it left my skin just as quickly, I then reached up and grabbed onto her hair with my left hand and pushed her head down.

She screamed and let go of my hair and raised both of her hands to grip onto my hand which was fisted in her hair, I used my grip as leverage to pull her face round for me to smack my right fist off her face, I saw movement over her head and realised Paul had moved past me and I watched as he pushed one guy harshly against the back wall and hit another guy in the face, I felt myself smile as the guy fell to the floor with a heavy thud.

I pushed the girl with the black hair towards the floor and kicked her as she went down before I moved towards Paul who had a girl hitting his side, he of course done nothing seen as she was a girl, I however didn't hesitate to slap her round the face which made a harsh sound. "Thanks." I heard Paul laugh as the girl tried to hit me with a pathetic fist which I dodged easily and punched her in the stomach.

As I went to stand up straight a big guy grabbed me by the throat and pushed me roughly against the wall and raised his fist, before I had even moved my knee upwards and clenched my fist, Paul had ripped his hand away from my throat and had the guy pinned to the wall his feet slightly in the air as Paul shouted furiously in his face.

"Don't you ever raise your fist to a woman again!" He snarled before punching him hard in the face.

The lights of the screen turned on as attendants came rushing in and up towards where we were stood.

I rushed over to Paul and touched his arm gently.

"Paul put him down, you've scared him enough." I told him quickly, the look on his face was murderous, and there were far too many people around.

"Sir please but the boy down." An attendant asked warily.

Paul's gaze flickered towards the attendant before he growled at the guy who had tried to hit me.

"We will have to cal the police if you don't release him." Another attendant said.

"You wont call the police, he's done nothing wrong other than defend himself and me!" I shouted at the attendant.

I saw Paul let go of the boy who stood breathing deeply.

"Miss both yourself and your boyfriend will need to leave the premises immediately. Otherwise we shall have to call the authorities. Fighting will not be tolerated." The attendant spoke strongly.

"They didn't start anything, it was those children who came in late, they were aggressive and rude, and these two only defended themselves." A man from a few rows in front said sternly as he stood.

"Exactly!" I yelled.

"Her boyfriend only reacted this way because that boy had his girlfriend against the wall and raised his fist to her." A woman who looked to be mid forties said from along our row, she looked afraid as she watched the scene unfold, I smiled kindly at her.

"You don't condone men raising their fists to women do you?" I demanded of the attendant, who spluttered and looked slightly afraid.

"Of course not." He stated.

"Good then you'll see that we done nothing wrong." I said walking back along the row and I could feel Paul following.

As we walked past the girls who were stood holding their reddening faces with tears in their eyes I stopped and said. "Once you've taken a few hits and realised your not made of glass you might get a backbone. Or better yet just keep your mouth shut and don't be so fucking rude in future." Paul took hold of my shoulders and pulled me away from them.

"Let's just go. Embry will kick my arse if you get in trouble with the police." Paul told me smiling.

"Wouldn't be the first time, but your right lets just go." I replied walking down the stairs with Paul next to me.

"The others should be made to leave not them." The man from before told the attendants.

"No, we'll just have our tickets refunded." Paul stated looking menacingly at one of the other attendants who hastily nodded his head, to which Paul smirked.

Paul and I walked out of the screen with the attendants and the group of arseholes following behind, laughing loudly at the situation. After Paul got his money back for not only the tickets but the popcorn and drinks we walked out of the cinema and headed towards Paul's truck.

"So do you wanna head straight back to La Push or did you want to get something to eat or maybe go for a walk before?" he asked me.

"Could we maybe go for a walk?" I asked hesitantly.

Although there was a party back in La Push as I looked at Paul for some reason I didn't want to go and be around other people, I was happy just to be somewhere with him.

I felt my body tense up as I realised I was enjoying the evening already and we'd been in a fight in a movie screening and been thrown out because of said fight!

"Wait. Did we really just get thrown out of a cinema for having a fight?" I asked him just to make sure.

"Yeah we really did." He laughed.

"I guess weirder things have happened. But wow, first 'date' and we get thrown out of a movie for fighting." I laughed.

"Yeah when you look at it like that, not the most traditional first date yeah." he chuckled.

"Are you okay now though?" I asked quietly not meeting his eye.

"What do you mean?" he asked tightly as we walked in another direction towards a park.

"You were really angry like obviously we both were but you looked kinda upset if you know what I mean." I babbled.

"I thought he hurt you." He said as though it were the most obvious reason for his anger.

"Na, I would have been able to handle him! But thanks I guess." I mumbled the last part.

"Yeah I'm pretty sure you would have." He laughed. "Embry was right when he said you could fight."

"Yeah I've always seen it as a good thing. I can look after myself." I told him firmly.

"Yeah, but you don't always have to." He replied gently.

"Yes I do." I said mechanically.

I thought I heard him sigh before he turned into a big green park pulling me along with him.

"So how you finding your first week here?" he asked changing the subject.

"It's alright, schools pretty shit, but I like being with Embry and Helen." I told him honestly.

"Yeah, but is school ever going to be anything other than shit? And I know that they love having you here. Embry talked of nothing else before you came." He laughed.

"Really?" I asked with a smile on my face.

"Really. They were so excited; Embry wouldn't shut up about you!" Paul laughed.

"He'll go mad if he finds out I got into a fight at a cinema." I sighed.

"Well he's done worse things, and at least you didn't get arrested or kicked out of school for this one." He said nudging me with his arm.

"Yeah, hopefully he'll see the funny side of the whole thing." I laughed.

"Of course he will! And thanks for getting that girl off me, I couldn't hit her." He said.

"No worries I had fun, and thanks for standing up for me as well I guess." I said looking in the opposite direction as to where he was.

"No worries I had fun." He said, I could hear the smile in his voice, I turned my head to look at him and his eyes held mine, there was such a pure emotion running through them that I felt warm despite to cold.

"You have lovely eyes." He breaths I feel my eyes flutter as he speaks.

"Not trying to get me into bed with compliments are you Paul?" I asked smirking at him.

"You forget; I've gotten you into bed once already Sky." He told me with a mischievous glint in his eye. "I doubt it will be long before it happens again."

"So sure about everything aren't you." I say with a smirk on my face.

"Oh yeah." he replies before his lips press firmly against mine, it surprises me how gentle his lips are against mine, his hand which isn't holding mine moves up and cups my face gently his thumb stroking my cheek softly as our lips move together. I pull back slightly and he rests his forehead against mine with a sigh.

"I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that." He says quietly.

"Don't be stupid Paul; we both knew it was inevitable. You just can't resist me." I say smirking while he shakes his head.

We walk over to a bench and sit down, I pull out my cigarettes and offer one to Paul who takes one for himself and lights it before I do the same.

"So you've only got this year left of school and your done?" I ask him.

"Yeah if I manage to graduate that is but, I should do." He says with a smile.

"I've got another three years." I moaned.

"What do you wanna do after school?" he asked me curiously.

"I've never really thought about it, in England I would have gone to college after school got some A Levels if I bothered going, maybe Uni, but I doubt I would ever have done that, maybe got a job, I dunno, that future isn't real anymore, I'll have a different one now I guess with living here. What about you? What's your plans for after high school?" I ask him with a smile.

"I can't go away to college, not that I'd ever really want to anyway, but I work in a garage every now and then, I'll probably go full time and become a mechanic." He said.

"You like cars then?" I ask.

"Yeah, it would be a pretty shitty job if I didn't." he laughed.

"Yeah I know that, I like cars." I tell him.

"Well you can get one soon, only have to be sixteen to drive over here." He tells me with a smile.

"I'd forgotten that!" I exclaimed excitedly he just laughed lightly.

We sat in silence for a while just looking around the park, before Paul turned to me.

"Not that I'm not enjoying spending time with you, but if you want to be back in time to see the others we'll need to leave soon." He told me.

"Okay, shall we head off now?" I asked him standing, he stood too and we walked back to his truck climbing in and heading back towards La Push, we chatted easily as we had throughout the 'date' and it didn't once turn uncomfortable, it was easy, we made it back to La Push in what seemed like no time at all and we were pulling up at the beach, we both climbed out of the truck and Paul came round and took my hand with a questioning look to which I held on tighter his grin turned cocky and I had to laugh at how quickly he became sure of himself.

"So is it down on the sand?" I asked him.

"No you go down this path here and there's this huge clearing where you can get to the beach easily and there's seating and stuff, they'll probably have a fire going as well." He explained and led me down the path.

As we came to the end of it, I saw exactly what he described along with a beautiful view of the beach and the ocean that had the moon reflecting off it, which you could see clearly from the large clearing there was in fact a fire roaring with the occasional blues and greens flashing through the flames. The clearing was packed with people some standing and chatting, some sitting and quite a large amount dancing near to the music, I spotted Embry and the others instantly they were stood near to the fire talking with drinks in hand, Paul and I made our way over towards them.

As we walked I noticed there were many eyes on the pair of us and I could feel a lot of their eyes zoning in on our joined hands I felt my back stiffen and I automatically let go of his hand and reached into my bag for my cigarettes, I glanced at him and saw his face had fallen ever so slightly, I felt guilt wash over me and I swallowed thickly when I saw a glint of hurt in his eye.

"Want one?" I asked him he shook his head with a hint of a smile.

"Your film finished early." Quil stated in greeted as we got closer to them.

Both Paul and I looked at each other and laughed, while the others looked at us questioningly.

"We only saw the first half an hour." Paul explained with a smirk.

"How comes?" Beth asked.

"We got asked to leave the screen…" I said laughing.

"Why?" Embry snapped at me but his eyes were glaring at Paul.

"We got asked to leave for inappropriate activities in the back row…" I told him smirking; everyone burst out laughing while Embry glared at Paul and moved closer to him clenching his fists.

"She's joking Embry, calm down." Paul told him while Embry shook slightly.

"Why did you have to leave then?" Jared asked still chuckling.

"We kinda got into a fight with some people." I mumbled.

"How can you 'kinda' get into a fight?" asked Embry with a sigh.

"Well we were watching the film and a group of like teenagers, what sixteen seventeenish?" I asked Paul who nodded his agreement. "Well however old they were they came in like half an hour late and were all 'your in our seats move'" I said in a whiny voice. "Which is stupid because the seats weren't even allocated! Then they got really rude and started threatening which was laughable." I laughed. "So I hit the first girl a few times, then the second girl like threw herself at me and someone grabbed me like I think he was a guy cause he was a lot stronger than either of the girls and I presumed it was then that Paul got involved, next time I looked up he had dealt with the guys that were with them and had another girl hitting his side." I laughed.

"So you could handle the guys but you couldn't get a girl off you?" Kim teased.

"No I just weren't gonna hit a girl. Sky did it for me." He laughed.

"Yet he wouldn't let me hit that last bastard." I complained to which Paul's face darkened.

"Why what did he do?" Embry demanded.

"He had he by the throat and went to hit her." Paul gritted out, everyone's eyes widened.

"I told you I'd have broken his nose before his fist fell!" I sighed.

"Do I need to even ask if you got him off her?" Embry asked Paul who raised him eyebrows in a 'you're seriously asking me that?' fashion, Embry grinned in responses.

"Then the attendants or whatever you call them came in and were telling us how we had to leave." I laughed.

"But some people explained that we were 'defending' ourselves, so I got my money back." Paul laughed.

"At least we didn't get arrested." I said smirking at Paul.

"That's a first hey Sky." Embry said giving me a devious grin.

"I don't know what your talking about brother." I said with a mischievous smirk.

"Clean record over here. Please." He said seriously.

"I'll try, I don't have Vic so it will make it harder." I laughed.

"Vic?" Erin asked curiously.

"Lawyer." I mumbled biting my lip.

"He's a fucking good one at that." Embry laughed shaking his head.

"Anyway!" I laughed.

"Come and get another drink with me." Erin stated I nodded and walked with her over to grab a drink.

"So..." She said when we were out of ear shot, raising her eyebrows in question.

"What?" I asked her innocently while smirking, she laughed before fixing me with a serious look.

"Behaved yourself I take it?" she asked cheekily.

"Well we did get into a fight in the cinema, so we weren't that well behaved." I reminded her laughing.

"You know that isn't what I meant!" She exclaimed laughing while I poked my tongue out at her.

"Fine we both remained clothed the whole time!" I told her.

"Oh wow! You're doing so well! Staying in your clothes on the first date!" she laughed.

"Ergh 'date'." I shivered at the word. "That's defiantly a first for me."

"Really?" Erin asked shocked.

"Yeah, do you really have me down as the sort of girl to go out and be all cute and just not me on a 'date' of all things?" I asked her.

"Well I dunno I just presumed that since you've been with a few guys, you'd have dated them as well." She explained, I laughed.

"Erin every guy I've ever done anything with I have never felt a thing for. And I'm pretty sure it was the same for all of them, there was no go out on a date get to know him then sleep with him that would have been a waste of time when we were both only after one thing, sure it sounds bad but yeah..." I told her. "Meaningless sex is best." I recited.

"You really believe that?" she asked me doubtfully.

"Of course I do its true." I told her.

"Wait until you find someone you care about, you'll defiantly see things a lot different then." She told me with a small smile.

"And until that day comes, which I seriously doubt will ever come, I'll carry on with the meaningless stuff." I tell her.

"What about Paul?" She asked quickly.

"He's hot." I explained.

"And that's the only thing that draws you to him." She asked clearly disbelieving, I opened my mouth to respond but hesitated I couldn't seem to force the 'yes' out. I closed my mouth and thought for a few moments; that weren't the only thing, his smile, his eyes, just him, his understanding, how easy everything was between us already. Erin's grin widened as she watched me think. I felt my walls go up.

No emotion.

No feeling.

No pain.

"Yes." I finally managed to choke out; Erin merely laughed and shook her head.

"If that really were the only reason, you wouldn't have hesitated and you wouldn't have gone out with him on a DATE, yes you really did go out on a date with him tonight, if you didn't feel something more…" Erin told me seriously; when I opened my mouth to reply she cut me off. "And even though it's true, you can only use the 'because he's hot' excuse for so long..."

I just stared harshly back at her, for once not knowing what to say without making the situation look worse for me.

"Look at me like that all you want Sky, you know I'm right." She said smiling as she hugged me. "It's not as though I'm going to tell anyone, just be happy, you deserve it."

"Embry said that to me yesterday." I told her quietly looking over at him, they all seemed to be stood straighter than what looked comfortable but Embry caught my eye and smiled, I couldn't stop my eyes from flickering over to Paul who as though feeling my gaze looked up and smiled softly, I felt my cheeks warm and looked away.

I hadn't blushed in ages, yet that look from Paul brought the redness to my cheeks.

"What? About Paul?" Erin asked confused.

"No. He told me to 'Be happy'." I told her quietly. "I don't get it." I confessed.

"Just do what makes you happy, obviously not through drugs or alcohol, just in yourself." She told me smiling.

"Are you happy?" I asked her sharply.

"Yeah, I am." She said simply.

"Why?"

"I don't know, I guess I've got people who care about me, friends, family, Seth." She said smiling more broadly as she spoke of Seth.

"Let's just hope he doesn't break your heart then." I told her smiling, she laughed lightly.

Then her face took on a mischievous look as she turned and called out "Paul come here." He looked mildly confused but started to make his way over.

"What are you doing?" I asked her.

"Just what you did to me." She told me as she poked her tongue out and walked back to Seth, who opened his arms for her.

"What was that about?" Paul asked me when he got to me.

"I erm I dunno." I stuttered.

"You okay?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yeah I'm fine." I told him angrily.

"Don't bite my head off." He snapped back.

"I wasn't. You don't have to worry about me." I told him.

"Just as well I wasn't." He shot back.

"Course you weren't." I snapped.

"You're so unbelievably… I don't even know what the word is!" He fumed.

"Then why say anything?" I asked him.

"Infuriating!" he exclaimed with a look of satisfaction on his face.

"We weren't describing you." I told him nastily.

"You're… ARGH!" he ranted.

He ran an annoyed hand swiftly through his short dark hair, the look on his face one of anger and frustration but it was his eyes that I was drawn to, they were gazing heatedly down at me, with lust flaring through the, I then realised that I felt that same lust rush through me as I watched him closely.

Be happy. The voice echoed through my mind.

I took a deep breath and looked back at Paul who was staring intently at me.

"Fuck it." I said and reached up and grabbed his face just as his large warm hands gripped my hips and pulled me towards him, and kissed him, wrapping my arms round his neck as I reach up on my toes, even with my heels he was still stupidly taller than me, as I sighed against his lips his tongue slipped into my mouth, the kiss deepened and Pauls hands lifted me ever so slightly so my feet were about an inch from the ground.

It was then that I was ripped away from Paul and saw Embry standing there glaring at Paul looking furious.

Paul and I looked at each other then back at Embry.

"What?" we said in unison in annoyed voices before laughing as Embry glared at us both.
