A/N: So, I am revisiting this story that I began writing when I was about 14 and trying to rewrite it now as an adult. I'm still not that great of a writer lol but since Miss. Rona is out here in these streets I have nothing to do other than procrastinating on my coursework. So without further ado here is the Fic!

Oh and I don't own Twilight or whatever.

This was it. Finally, after so many years away, I was coming home. La Push. That was home. Not Miami, where the sun seemed to shine constantly. I missed the dampness of my birthplace. I missed my family. My friends. I missed HIM.

I pushed that thought away as quickly as it came. He couldn't possibly be the same person I'd left behind all those years ago. He, as well as my former friends, probably didn't even remember me. Shoot I knew they wouldn't recognize me when they saw me anyway. I mean, the last time they saw me I was ten. I've definitely changed since then. I was nearly eighteen for christ's sake. I hope the gap between our friendship and now isn't too large to overcome, but I guess wishing for things to be the same as when I left is too much to ask.

Besides all that, I knew I could count on my dear brother. Well, half brother. His name is Sam Uley and despite the fact that our father was a deadbeat, Sam has always been a doting older brother. He's the only one I've kept up with all these years. Mom didn't think he would but I just knew he wouldn't be able to say no to his favorite baby sister.

"Pardon the interruption ladies and gentlemen but we are about to descend so please fasten your seatbelts. Thank you." The lady said over the intercom. Oh, thank God I was finally going to get off this plane. I was so ready to get to La Push I was bouncing in my seat.

When the plane finally landed I hurried off to meet Sam at baggage claim. Once I'd grabbed all of my luggage I looked around for him but I didn't see him. Suddenly I felt a tap on my shoulder, I jumped and turned around.

The man in front of me had to be at least 6'3" and he had muscles in places I didn't think was possible. However, as I continued to study him I recognized something in his eyes.

"Sam?" I asked.

"The one and only." He said and grabbed me up in a hug. "It's been so long Lex I'm so glad you're back. I was so torn up when your mom moved away with you, though I honestly can't blame her with everything our sperm donor put her through."

"I missed you too big bro." I giggled. He grabbed both of my suitcases and left me with my carry on as he led me into the parking lot. Sitting in his car waiting for us was who I assumed to be Emily Young, his fiancee. I knew she was his ex-girlfriend's cousin and I knew Leah had been devastated when she'd heard about their engagement. Or at least that's what my mom said, I hadn't had any contact with anyone in La Push except for Sam since I'd left so he wasn't much of a reliable source. I'm sure he downplayed the situation.

I wonder how everyone has been. I wondered how HE was. Seth. He'd been my very best friend when we were young. I still remembered the last day I spent with him before I left when he'd unexpectedly revealed he had a crush on me, which I was only too happy to hear since I had a crush on him too.

*flashback*

"I can't believe your mom is making you move across the country." He said as he kicked a rock into the cold water at the beach.

"Yeah, this really sucks." I pout.

"What am I gonna do here without my best friend?" He asked.

"You're gonna forget about me and find yourself a new best friend."

"I couldn't possibly do that. There isn't anyone here as awesome and annoying as you are." He laughed. I stuck my tongue out at him and punched his arm. He rubbed the spot like it really hurt when I know it doesn't. He only does that for my benefit.

We walked along the beach awhile in silence until Seth said something.

"Um, Lexi. . ." He seemed to be struggling with something.

"Yes Sethy," I said using that nickname that he couldn't stand in order to ease the tension. There was a slight blush in his cheeks but finally, he said,

"I like you."

"I like you too. Duh, that's why we're best friends." I rolled my eyes.

"No, I like you." He blushed.

"Huh?" I said dumbfounded.

"Don't make me say it again it's embarrassing." He grouched

"I like you too."

"Really?" He said.

"Yeah. Too bad I'm leaving in a few hours tho." I said sadly.

"Can I be your boyfriend for the last couple of hours then?" He asked shyly

"Um. . . Sure I guess."

"Cool." He held my hand and we kept walking.

"Wait, aren't you going to kiss me?"

"What?" He looked nervous

"Well, that's what boyfriends and girlfriends do." I was a little nervous too considering neither of us had ever kissed anyone before.

"Um okay then. Close your eyes." He said. I did so and then leaned forward. Only to kiss his chin as he kissed my nose. A total hit and miss. We both ended up laughing too hard to try again.

*end flashback*

I hope he's been alright. It would be nice if we could be friends again while I'm here. Maybe I'd seek him out at school. We should still be in the same grade unless he got held back or something which I highly doubt.

Sam, Emily, and I hit the road as soon as my luggage was all settled in the trunk. Only one hour to go until I was back home.

A/N: *Insert self-deprecating joke about my writing here.* The next chapter and every one after that will be much longer.

Stay safe, stay home, and WASH YOUR HANDS.
