Here I am. Yeah me, Elizabeth Black. And surprise, surprise, I'm being shipped to La Push to live with my Uncle Billy and cousin Jacob Black. Why? You asked. It's pretty simple.
My stupid biased mother has been sending me all around the world, just so she could get me out of her stick fucking hair and be with all these random guys' who end up being one night stands! I've been to England, where they tried to teach me "Manners" I must say, didn't last very long. I got kicked out.
"I'm sick of you Elizabeth Black! What the hell is wrong with you? I send you to all of these school's for you to learn how to be a lady but-"
I cut her off by saying "Fuck you! Your not my mother you stupid conniving bitch. You sent me to all of these school's so I am out of your silky fucking 'glamorous' hair not so I'll learn how to be 'lady'. You tell everyone what a monstrosity of a kid I am, but really? Am I? What about you miss "I'm to good for everybody"? You don't even have a right to be called a mother-" She cut me off by her fist coming toward my face where she punched the side of my cheek. I could feel my teeth cutting into the side of my cheek, making it bleed crimson fluids. I spat it out, onto her new strappy prada shoes that she had bought only a day ago.That was the end of my flashback , as the stupid fake sickly, sweet voice of the air attendant's voice came onto the speaker over head.
"Please buckle up, you will be arriving at Port Angeles shortly. Thank you" Her voice made me want to hurl. "Fake bitch" I muttered. I buckled my seat belt, my thoughts from earlier relinquishing into my mind. No doubt had my mom told Uncle Billy and Jacob that I was this horrendous kid that she could not handle. That I was this girl who would do anything she wanted whenever she wanted to do so. That's what she told everyone. Except, if you heard every single detailed word that came out of her mouth, you'd be horribly disgusted. She would tell them in so many details, 90% of the things she said weren't even true. To be entirely honest, I'm smart. My true colours, the girl hiding, never really got to thrive. The girl underneath the tough exterior really was smart and intelligent. My teacher saw what I was really like. And she encouraged me to do so.
But no, my mom. She wouldn't believe a word my teacher had said. She always said to her "Her" She would look at me as if I was some deathly parasite burdened into her home. "Hah! Yeah right. This girl over here isn't capable of doing something like this. She obviously plagiarised it. Didn't ya Elizabeth" I wished my mom was different, the comforting type. The one who looked at you, and would smiled. The type of caring and compassionate mother who would supports your decisions, or at least respected them enough. But no. I had a loveless mother, a mother who hated me, and couldn't really give a fucking shit if I dropped dead on the very ground I walked on. She wouldn't even shed a frickin tear. She would be smiling, glad that her so called 'daughter' was gone away from her life. So she could do whatever she pleased. Not that she doesn't already.
The way she looked at me compared to other mothers, was utterly disgusting. Other mothers would look at their child with love and adoration, like their life couldn't get any better than what it was already. My 'mother' only ever cared about money. It was wrong. She would buy me expensive things, as if it was a token of her love for me. She seemed to think that it makes up for the times she wasn't there, for all the times she neglected me, by leaving me home to do everything on my own.
When I was 12 my father left, he had enough of my mother's lying and cheating. So he left, him saying to me "I'm sorry my baby, you'll always be my little girl" Than he left, leaving me a piece of him with me. He left me his thin gold necklace that had 'My little girl' engraved on the back of a tiny antique golden heart pendent that had the design of a rose on top.
"Excuse me ma'am?" Said someone, lightly shaking my shoulder. "Hi, I'm so sorry for disturbing you. But we have just landed in Port Angeles" She said, smiling a small sincere smile.
"Thank you Jennifer" I said, looking at her name that was pinned to her shirt.
"No problem" She smiled, glad I called her by her real name and not some fake name that some posh people call her. Her brown hair was around her shoulders, creating a small but involuntary halo that surrounded her shoulders.
I stepped off of the plane, the air from Port Angeles hit me, making me shiver, and wishing I had actually put on a Jacket.
I found the luggage claim, which was inside the airport. Duh, right? Well the thing is, this was the first time I have ever been on a airplane.
The luggage claim had bags belonging to the people that had just taken that plane with me. I saw my bags which were right at the end of the conveyer belt. I huffed, walking lazily toward the end, where my 4 bags were on it's side. Lucky nothing breakable are in them.
I don't think I will be able to carry all of this crap.
"Elizabeth?" Said a very familiar husky voice.
"Jacob!" I said, leaning up to hug him. How tall is he? He had grown so much since the last time I had seen him. He was a giant compared to the Jacob I used to be taller than.
"Hey Lizzie" He said, hugging me back. "Here, let me help you" He said, leaning down to grab the three biggest bags I had bought with me.
I watched in shock as he just lifted the bags off of the ground, he didn't even break a sweat.
"Oh my gosh. I envy you" I muttered. Seriously, who actually does that? Who can actually lift that off of the ground with it not so much as weighing him down.
"You don't seem as much of a bitch as your mother has been making out." Jacob said, as this was a casual conversation for him.
I rolled my eye's at Jacob. Of course Jacob would say that. He an Uncle Billy probably would've thought that I was the worlds biggest bitch. I wonder why they even considered letting me stay with them. After all of the shit mother dearest has probably would have told them.
"Oh yeah!" I said, sarcasm in every ounce of my voice. "I'm one hell of a challenge to put up with. You better watch out Jacob. I hurt little defensless animals, make rude gestures at nuns. I'm a rebel" My voice was deep with sarcasm. Of course I didn't hurt any animals, or disrespect nuns. I'm not like that. Sure I swear, but I wouldn't swear inside a church.
Jacob laughed at me, a loud booming sound. "Obviously" he joked with laughter.
"Uncle Billy probably thinks I am this monstrous little rebellious bitch"
Jacob shrugged his shoulders at me as we slowly made our way over to the rabbit that he had spent the summer working on. "I honestly don't have a clue as to what he thinks"
I retrieved the Ipod that was in my pockets, and turned it on, letting the music play.
As I layed my head onto the window, the lack of sleep seemed to catch up me.
I let my eye's drop as the heaviness of my eye lids were to much to handle. The music playing throughout the head seemed to comfort me.
I felt someone lightly shake me. "Come one Lizzie, we're here. You've been asleep the whole time." Said Jake's voice.
I've been what? I couldn't of been asleep the whole entire time, could I of been? It didn't feel like I was asleep.
My eye's anyhow fluttered open, revealing my unfamiliar surroundings. The environment of this place taking stride in my eye's. Everywhere was green, from the moisture of the rain that takes place in La Push. Tree's where everywhere, creating a huge forest that one day I would like to explore.
As for the sky, it seemed that it always consisted of grey clouds that threatened to spill harsh amounts of water on everything that was contained amongst La push.
I opened my door, stretching my legs in front of me.
"Elizabeth?" Said a voice from behind me and Jacob.
I turned around seeing him, my Uncle Billy. He looked so different from the last time I had seen him. His wrinkles shown more, from constant worrying.
"Uncle Billy!" I said, dropping my bag onto the ground, and running up to hug him. I bent down, putting my arms awkwardly around, and pecking his cheek. "How have you been?" I asked respectfully, I stood up slowly.
"Good, good. Nice to see you Elizabeth."
"It's nice to see you too. Thanks for letting me stay here" I said, politeness clear in my tone. I think he was a little shocked at the respect in my voice.
I talked to my mom like shit, practically because she was shit to me.
"It was I and Jake's pleasure, right Jake?"
Jake nodded, but his mind was somewhere else, in the woods, as if he was searching for something.
I moved my eye's to the forest, searching for what had caught his undivided attention.
"What's wrong?" I asked, moving to stand next to Jacob.
"Huh?" He asked, me snapping him out of his trance "Oh no, nothing. Dad got to go. See you later, kay? Bye Lizzie" Jacob said, putting me in a bone crushing hug. "Cant.. Breath" I said gasping.
"Oh right, bye!" He said, removing his arms from around me and running into the woods.
"Is he always like that?" I laughed, turning to a chuckling Uncle Billy.
"Yeah. He has to go to work"
Through the woods? "Oh" I said with a little shrug.
"Come on in, I just made lunch." He said rolling himself in. "Or Jacob did" He added with a laugh.
"When will Jacob be back?"
"Getting tired of me already Elizabeth?" Uncle Billy joked.
"No! No of course not, I was just asking"
He laughed "Jacob should be back soon"
I nodded, popping my lips. "Sorry to do this Liz, but I've got to go, Charlie is here" He said, pointing outside where police cruiser was parked. "Where going fishing. I could always make plans for someover time-"
I cut him off, shaking my head, and kind of warmed that he would cancel his plans for me "No, you go ahead, I need to unpack anyway. And get dressed to" I added, noticing I've been in these clothes for awhile due to the flight.
"No problem. The bathroom is right down the hall, last door on your right." He said, smiling at me warmly, before rolling himself out the door closing it behind him.
Might as well take a shower now while I am alone.
I walked right down to the end of the hall, turning to my right, like Uncle Billy had intructed.
The bathroom was kind of cute. Blue, white and pink tiles around the bathroom floor and walls. The shower was in the left corner, the doors was see through glass. The bath tub was right in front of it, with a simple white basan next to it.
I started taking my clothing off, and just tossing them onto the floor messily.
The hot water splashed onto my skin. I used to think when I was younger that if I had a shower, it would just wash everything away. The pain of have a neglecting mother, the pain of my father leaving.
I closed my eye's letting the steaming hot water splash onto my skin, the colour of my skin was flushing from the heat of the water.
There was a kno- scratch that- there was a banging on the door. Ignore it. I told myself. Whoever the hell that was kept knocking.
Damn this person is fucking persistent!
"This had better be good" I said angrily, shutting the water off.
I grabbed a towel, wrapping it around me tightly, to prevent it from falling down to reveal what was underneath the towel.
Whoever was at the door was still knocking, I had to literally restrain myself from saying "Knock on that door one more time you better start running!"
"What!" I yelled opening the door.
I came face to shoulder? With someone shirtless. Obviously that someone was a guy. I made myself look up and was shocked.
The intensity of his stare was one of awe, love, shock and than anger.
His eye's held me there in my place, I couldn't move I was engrossed with him. He was like a book that I couldn't seem to remove my eye's from. It was like he held me there in place.
As I saw anger hit his eye's he muttered "Just tell Jacob I came by" Than he stormed of into the forest.
I felt like a part of me was gone.
I just stood there like an idiot, shocked at what just happened. What had just happened anyway? It was so strong. I couldn't even feel the anger in me anymore.
"Elizabeth!" Said a disbelieving voice. "What the hell are you doing out here in just a towel? Go inside"
I felt like a complete idiot, I looked up seeing him with 2 other guys' with him, and quickly looked down blushing like crazy at the thought of them seeing me like this.
I turned around, bending down to pick up one of my bags that contained some of my clothes.
"Where can I get dressed?" I asked from down the hall.
"Just hurry up and get changed in the bathroom than I'll show you to your room"
"Kay!" I shouted.
Once I got into the bathroom, I tore around threw my bag, finding warm clothes.
I settled for a blue and white sweater and track pants. Not really in the mood for anything else.
My thoughts were all revolving around the boy. Huh. Was this really normal?
I quickly brushed my hair, not caring that it hurt. My hair was starting to curl up already, into little ringlets from not putting the straightner through it.
I opened the door, looking down at my feet, and suddenly bumped into a brick wall, or so I thought. This 'brick wall' made me fall on my butt. "Ouch" I muttered as my but hit the wooden floor.
"Well watch-" He cutt off as he looked at me. His eye's softening as he looked down at me. "I'm sorry" He said, a hand making it's way down to help me from off of the ground.
What the hell is wrong with this guy's mood swings? Seriously, it's giving me some major whiplash.
I took it, after staring at it for probably a minute, as I took it, I looked up, seeing he had a frustrated look on his face.
"Excuse me" I said, moving around him in disappointment.
I walked up the hall, seeing Jacob and the two others from before lounging on the couch.
"Nice to see you with some clothes on" Said a boy, I had no idea who this person was.
"Embry!" Jacob said, kicking him in the shins.
"Lizzie, this is Embry and Jared" He said, pointing to the two of them. "And Paul is up the hall"
Huh, so that's his name. The one with those heart melting brown eye's.
"Mhmm" I said, pretending I didn't care. I walked past them, and into the kitchen
I could here a wolf howling in the distance, it sounded alarmed.
"Crap" I heard Jake mutter. "Hey Lizzie, we gotta go. Sorry!" Than I heard the stampede of feet go out the front door.
Well this is annoying! I just got here, and everyone seems to be leaving the damn house.
I hope it's not going to be like this the whole time I'm here.
I heard a door slamming in the distance. I didn't even realise that I had fallen asleep.
"I can't believe you Paul!" Said Jacob angrily.
My book feel from off of my chest and hit the floor with a loud 'thud'.
I yawned, sitting up on the lounge. "Jacob" I said.
"Oh hey, didn't mean to wake you up." His voice still had that pitch of anger in it.
"You should go back to sleep. We have school tomorrow. I'll show you to your room." Than he turned around, giving Paul a glare.
Paul glared back, before turning around and walking out the door, slamming it shut behind him.
I looked up at Jacob questioningly "What was that about?"
"Nothing" He said through clenched teeth. I noticed a gash on his arm that was healing.
"Jacob!" I said alarmed "What the hell is that on your arm?"
When I looked again, it was healed like it wasn't even there.
"Never mind" I grumbled, walking up the hall.
Jacob stopped suddenly, causing me to run right into him.
"This is your room" He said, unphashed by me running into him.
"Goodnight" Than he stormed down the hall, slamming the hall door shut behind him.
What got his pantys in a bunch?
