Authors Note: So here is my second story Wohoo! Okay I know it's gonna probably not be as good but I really wanted to right it. You see I had this well cool dream last night involving me and my best friend PepperX or A.K.A Beccer, and we moved to La Push and met the wolf pack but Shhhh that doesn't happen in the story yet. I didn't really want to change our names to hide our identities because well, I just didn't want too. So Yer oh and It may not be the same pairings as in the book, sorry if you like the parings. Well that's it I think…oh no wait the song has its link on my page its happy by Nevershoutnever! So tell me what you think XD
Moving
The green continued to pass by. A blur of the forever spreading forest that we drove by. Where ever you turned your head was a tree, row beyond row of evergreen never ending in all directions. The clouds in the sky moving slowly with the heaviness of the threatening rain dragging them down, the looming colours or grey and black awaiting in the distance right above our destination. Yet that was outside the car, inside it was a whole different story. The air surrounding me was filled with excitement and happiness as both my best friend and I were beginning our own life away from parents and away from our home. We were moving on together.
We stepped foot on the plane by ourselves, still seen as the beloved daughters then we stepped off and it was time to grow up. My small friend sat next to me in the car we had bought over the internet, jumping up and down in her seat as we drove down the winding roads through the thick and vast forest. She was supposed to be reading the map, but clearly failing.
"Okay what do the blue lines mean?" A crinkle appeared on her brow as she turned the map over and over in her hands.
"A river Beccer, a blue line means a river."
"Pfft I knew that." I rolled my eyes. Sure she did. "So I think we take the 101 or is it the 134? No definitely the 101."
"Are you sure 'cause we've already gotten lost twice and I don't wanna make it a third time."
"Don't you trust me Leah? Well that hurts, your best friend."
"Alright I'll take the 101." I chuckled as I made the turning.
"Actually…thinking about it, it's the 134." Beccer whispered sheepishly. I turned to glare at her, threatening her with the `you better be kidding` look. "Hey these maps are huge! Plus how am I supposed to know I've never lived in America before?"
"Beccer you think anything is huge compared to your height. Next time I'll read the map and you can drive." I replied sarcastically as I turned the car back around. Sometimes she could be so annoying. No infact make that all the time. "Why did I choose a tard as my best friend? Why did I choose to move to America with her? Why did I choose to live with her?"
"Because you love her very much."
"Sometimes I wonder." I laughed. "Now put that god damn music back on." She rolled her eyes. I always had a form of music on. Normally I was listening to my ipod and if it wasn't that it was a radio or a cd. I lived for my music. Beccer turned the Ipod back up, one of our favourite songs now filling the car. I tapped my fingers on the steering wheel as we both sang along happily.
"You make me happy whether you know it our not
We should be happy, that's what I said from the start
I am so happy, knowing you are the one
That I want for the rest of my days
For The rest of my days
You're all of my days
You're lookin' so cool, you're lookin' so fly
I can't deny that when I'm staring
You down, right dead in the eye
I wanna try to be the person you want
The person you need
It's hard to conceive
That somebody like you could be with
somebody like me
I'm happy knowing that you are mine
The grass is greener on the other si-ide
The more I think, the more I wish
That we could lay here for hours, and just-a reminisce
Uhh ooo ooo
You're lookin' so fresh
It's catching my eye
Why, Oh why, did I not see this before
The girl I adore was right in front of me?
And now I'll take a step back and look in your eye
And ask why it took so long to see
We're meant to be
I'm happy knowing that you are mine
The grass is greener on the other si-ide
The more I think, the more I wish
That we could lay here for hours, and just-a reminisce
On the good, the bad, the ugly
The smiles, the laughs, the funny
Or all the things we put each other through
Its for you, for you, for you
You make me happy whether you know it our not
We should be happy, that's what I said from the start
I am so happy, knowing you are the one
That I want for the rest of my days
For The rest of my days
I'm happy knowing that you are mine
The grass is greener on the other si-ide
The more I think, the more I wish
That we could lay here for hours, and just-a reminisce
Uhh ooo ooo"
It seemed we were finally getting somewhere through our sing fest and I actually saw the sign we had been looking for over the past four hours. "Welcome to La Push"
"Thank god, I thought we would never make it." I smiled as we began to see houses on both sides of the road.
"Oh look they have a store! It looks so cute." Beccer grinned as she pointed at things as we drove.
"So where is this house? You were in charge of all that."
"Well I know the address."
"Well that's just great. You didn't ask for directions."
"Hey I got the address what more do you want?"
"Directions." I repeated as I looked out of the window to find someone who could possibly help us out. I spotted a woman walking down the road with a pram, her black hair going mad in the wind. I pulled up the car slowly next to her and wound down the window. "Excuse me, could you possibly help us?" I asked politely. She turned her head, obviously realizing we didn't come from here and were actually English. She had three long silver scars down her face yet she was still beautiful. Her copper skin had no imperfections and she had a warm and comforting glow around her.
"Yes what seems to be the problem?"
"Well we are moving here, but my stupid friend only got an address and no directions." I smiled sweetly, yet added emphasis to the word stupid where I received a hit in my upper arm.
"Newbies huh? Well welcome to La Push first of all. I'm Emily Uley I own the café Emily's. Come in sometime."
"Do you make coffee?" Beccer asked as she reached across me.
"Coffee addict." I mumbled.
"Hush." Emily laughed at the pair of us.
"Why yes, we serve our coffee free."
"I like this place already." Beccer relaxed back into her chair.
"So where are you looking to go?"
"32 James close." I read out loud from the crumpled piece of paper Beccer gave to me.
"Oh you are taking over Old Jessie's place, lovely woman she was. That house has been up for sale for a year now." Yer I don't need a life story love, just directions. I thought in my head. "Well I guess we shall be neighbours then, I live opposite you."
"Then are you heading there? We will give you a lift." Beccer cut in. She would offer a lift wouldn't she. Oh well guess we are going to have to get to know Emily if she is our neighbour.
"Why thank you very much." I got out the car knowing we would have to find some space in the car for her pram. As I moved a couple of things around in the boot, Beccer helped Emily and her kid into the car. I stood up and hit my head on the car door.
"OW for f……!" I was about to swear but got cut off by a glaring Beccer.
"Language Leah, there are children about." She laughed as I rubbed the back of my aching head.
"I'll give you language Rebekah Spencer - Smith." I muttered as I started up the car again. Emily held her kid on her lap, granted she did look sweet in her yellow summer dress but I didn't really think much of children, I could just about get on with teenagers. Emily gave me the basic directions and I started to head off concentrating on driving as her and Beccer talked.
"So who's this lil' lady?" Beccer asked as she looked over her head rest.
"This is Haley Uley."
"Hello Haley, would you like a lollipop?"
"Yesh pwease!" Oh great I'm gonna have a hyper child in my car and Beccer is gonna be known as the lollipop lady. Beccer pulled out one of her many lollies from the glove compartment and gave it to the giggling child in the back.
"So what are your names? I don't know yet." Emily asked with raised eyebrows. Beccer answered for both of us.
"Well I am Beccer, or Rebekah just never call me Becky."
"Call her small fry she loves it." I laughed.
"Not funny Leah."
"I thought it was." Emily looked a little confused before a big smile emerged on her lips.
"And this if you haven't guessed already is Leah Gibbons, obviously I am the nicest."
"Oh really?" This always happened. She always claimed she was the nicest. I can be nice, well sometimes. If I want to be.
"Yes and you know it."
"Beside the point."
"How is it beside the point?" She argued. Emily and Haley started to laugh in the back of the car.
"Oh I think you two will fit in just fine here." What's that supposed to mean? Is everyone as insane as us or something because I find that hard to believe. We are mental. "So why moving to good old La Push anyway? I thought England was supposed to be the place to be."
"You kidding. It's horrible there, well not horrible just crowded and boring." Beccer ranted. "We just fancied a change and decided to live together, I mean we are both twenty one now so time we grew up and fended for ourselves. Plus I got a job teaching French here."
"So you will be teaching my Haley one day in the future?"
"Yup." Urghhhhh French! I hate French. I don't get why she likes it, it is probably the most boring subject to ever be invented along with Maths.
"What about you then Leah, what are you up to here?"
"Well I don't really know, I got a degree in history I'm just going to go with the flow of things." I noticed we had finally reached our destination and made the car go slower as I watched the house numbers pass by.
"THERE IT IS!" Beccer shouted next to me. And sure enough there was our home from now on, a little white wooden house with one of those old fashioned porch swings out front and a blue wooden door. I didn't really care for those parts I liked the forest at the end of garden, I don't now what it is I just like forests I have since I was like fifteen. I pulled the car up into the driveway and hoped out and took out Emily's pram.
"Thanks for the directions neighbour."
"That's okay. If either of you ladies ever need any help please don't hesitate to come to me. Number 3, right across the street."
"We will." Beccer chimed as she skipped round to us.
"Well have a good evening." Emily nodded before she crossed the road. Both I and Beccer stood there for a moment looking at each other until we began jumping up and down and laughing. This was it - we were living on our own.
