It was low tied and a handful of families had left there warm homes to spend with there children on one of La Pushes beaches. Leah keeping here eyes away from the happy families wandered along the shore line with her shoes in her hand trying not to think about the times her family had come here when she was younger. As usually the beach was windy causing Leah’s hair to slap painfully at her ears which made her regret the decision to cut it short. If it had been long she would have been able to tie it back and save her the irritation but these day long hair was too much hassle.
There was a small ring from her pocket which was barley audible thanks to the loud crashing waves. Shifting her shoes to her other hand she pulled out the mobile that her father had bought her for Christmas the previous year. “Sarah… Hi” Leah said with forced enthusiasm. Sarah proceeded to tell her about plans she had put together for a group of there friends to travel to Port Angeles for a movie and some food. A few months earlier Leah would have agreed almost instantly but not today the trip didn’t sound quite as appealing as it once would have. “Mmmm yea I duno Sarah not really feeling it, why who’s going?” Sarah rattled off a lit of there close friends from school and Leah hadn’t really listened until one name caught her attention.
“Sam? Yea not up for it maybe some other time…yea I know it’s been a while…Mmmhmm well give me a call tomorrow and we can go for Coffee or something…Ok see ya”. The conversation had worsened her already off mood and she threw her shoes a little way up the beach and say down. Playing an outcast wasn’t much fun. Leah didn’t know why Sarah had even bothered to call she would love having the group to her self, being the centre of attention and not having to compete. As soon as Leah had declined the invitation Sarah’s voice immediately brighter event though she tried to sound upset acting never was a skill she had mastered. Leah didn’t care they could go eat laugh and flirt and have there fun there was no way she would put her self within touching distance of Sam.
