Just Another Day With My Idiots

Just Another Day With My Idiots

My mom had dropped me off at Quil's house. She didn't have to since I had my own ride but I refused to get behind the wheel of that old thing. I had to beg her to drive me to La Push. Of course, she relented but dropped me off at Quil's because I have no idea why.

I mean, its not like I could tell her to drop me off at Embrys 'cause then I wouldn't hear the end of it when I get back home. She finally stopped teasing me when it came to my best friend since our fight last week. I didn't need the teasing to start again.

Anyway, I waved at my mom as she drove away and just awkwardly stood on the Ateara's driveway before realizing that Quil wasn't going to be coming outside anytime soon if I don't pick him up.

I knocked on the front door and Quil's mother was the one to answer it.

"Is Quil home?" I sure hoped he was. As efficient shadow-travelling was, I still hated it.

Mrs. Ateara nodded and went to call him.

"Hey," Quil greeted. "What are you doing here?"

"You could at least act like you're excited to see me." I pouted, hoping I could pull off that cute little puppy dog face that Andi finds so easy to do.

Quil made a face. "Why would I be excited to see you?"

I gasped, feigning hurt. "Because I'm your best friend and it's been weeks since I've seen you."

"So, you missed me." He smirked and I rolled my eyes at him.

"You're an idiot, Ateara." I started walking and Quil followed behind me.

"Hmm. I wonder what Em's gonna say about that. Did you miss him at all while you've been hanging with the pale faces?"

"It's kinda hard to miss someone when the last time you've seen him is the day before. And the day before that. And the day before that. And--" I shut my mouth before I could say anything else that would embarrass me any further.

"So you've been hanging out with Em without us?" I could already see the smirk forming on his face. It was a good thing I couldn't see it or else I would have tried to wipe it off his face with my fist.

"Shut up, Ateara," I muttered and the only response I got was a chuckle.

We made it to Embry's and Quil just couldn't stop talking about how cute a couple me and Embry would make. Fortunately, Embry and I were able to turn the tables around and make fun of his love life, or lack of it anyway.

We headed on over to Jake's house and knocked on the front door. It was Billy who answered it.

"Hey Billy," I greeted. "Is Jake here?"

"Yeah," Billy replied. "He's out in the garage, I think. A friend came to visit."

"Thanks, Billy."

We started for the little garage behind the house.

"Jacob?" I shouted.

So, Jake had a friend over. And I thought it would be just another day with my idiots. I mean, can you imagine all the stupid things we couls all be doing today? That'd be hard to do with some stranger hanging around with us.

"Jake? Are you there?"

"Yeah!" I heard Jake shout back.

There was a somewhat short silence as we strolled around the corner into the shed.

We stopped when we spotted the brunette with Jake. It was Bella Swan. What was she doing here? And why was she hanging out with Jake?

"Hey, guys," Jake greeted us.
