Imogen was sat at the table of bumbling band of baboons very uncomfortably. She wanted to go up and sit with the Cullens, but there was no way she could get away from the group without a million questions arising. She was also waiting for Bella, hoping that she would save her from being in the midst of the very bubbly group of teenagers.

"Hey, La Push baby. You in?" Eric questioned Bella as she reached the table. Imogen glanced up when she heard La Push, although they had probably already said it a million times, but she wasn't really paying attention.

Imogen looked at Eric in confusion. Why would anyone want to go to La Push unless they loved hiking in the woods? Bella did the same also, only knowing La Push as the place where Imogen lived. "What about La Push?" Imogen questioned, finally chipping in the conversation.

"La Push Beach down the Quileute Rez. We're all going tomorrow," Mike stated.

Angela smiled towards Bella and Imogen, who both didn't seem like the type to surf, which is what Jessica had in mind. Well, Imogen couldn't surf, but she didn't want to anyway. "There's whale watching, too. You should come."

"La Push, baby. It's La Push," Eric stated all creepily.

Bella smiled slightly, "Okay, I'll go if you stop saying that." Then she walked off, just like that, no questions asked.

While the others continued to laugh about going to La Push beach, Imogen mumbled out, "I can't believe I live in La Push yet I don't know about this beach. Can't believe that Jacob hasn't mentioned it to me."

All eyes directed towards her. Mike was the one to voice what everyone was thinking, "Jacob?"

Jessica smirked, slightly happy inside that Mike would have no chance with Imogen now, and would be forced to take her because she's the only one left. She didn't mind being second best to Mike, because she knew that once he went out with her, he would realize that she should've been his first choice. "Who's he, your boyfriend?"

Imogen smirked, blushing slightly, and shook her head. "No. He's in love with Bella, who is either completely oblivious to it, or just awkward in general, which she is."

Jessica continued on, pestering Imogen, "So, if he wasn't in love with Bella, you'd be with him?"

"She shook her head, glancing over the top of Angela's head and running her eyes over Jasper Hale. "No. He's not my type."

Eric was the one to join in the taunting now. And Imogen was scared that he may try and play matchmaker. "What is? A brooding, scary-looking, Cullen."

Imogen didn't even think when she spoke next, which ended in her abruptly halting her sentence half way through, "Actually, it's H-."

The group may have continued questioning her, but they found something more interesting to whisper about: Bella was talking to Edward, or more like Edward was talking to Bella.
