Mikella hummed to herself as she took carried an armful of groceries to her pickup truck. She managed to balance the heavy groceries on one knee and unlock her truck door at the same time. She opened the door and slid the groceries in the seat.
As she was closing the door, Kella caught her reflection in the mirror on her door. Her dark hair was pulled back into a messy ponytail and her green eyes glittered tiredly. There were faint smudges underneath her eyes, proving to the world that the young woman had not been sleeping well lately.
She slammed the door close and leaned against the truck, sighing heavily. Kella's eyes closed and she tilted her face to the sky. Waves of exhaustion crashed over her. A sudden sound made her jerk forward and her eyes fly open.

Jeff Hawkkin stumbled as he tripped on something and just righted himself before he almost hit a truck parked outside the store. HE made enough noise to wake the dead. Or so it seemed to him. He cursed himself under his breath as he lanced around. Well it seemed the only one who had noticed was the dark haired owner of the truck. His smile was apologetic as he looked around again, maybe looking for an excuse for his clumsiness. 'Sorry.." He managed to mumble as he took a few steps away, unsure of weather to simply walk away or bother to introduce himself. Well, may as ell introduce myself. He thought and turned on his heel to look at the lady again. He offered his hand, hopping that, despite his more then six foot height he wouldn't look to intimidating. "Mum.. I'm Jeff Hawkkin.." HE said, stumbling over the words like a twelve year old boy asking out the girl he liked. Thought hat wasn't the case here, but by the way he was acting it easily could have been.

Kella gave him a tired smile and shook his hand. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Jeff. I'm Mikella Moore. You can call me Kella if you like. It's okay. I have had many clumsie moments myself." She brushed loose strands of hair out of her face.
She peered around her. As was usual with Forks, it was very peaceful. Very few people were about, other than Kella and Jeff. She looked back at him, still smiling slightly. "You know something? You remind me of my best friend back in California. He was very clumsy. Everyone used to make fun of him, but he was a good friend. He'd always laugh at those who made fun of him." Sadness surfaced on her face. She missed him greatly.

Jeff listened to her, she seemed more talative then jeff felt. Maybe that was a good thing - if there was any conversation, she could lead it - he didn't mind. "Oh. Well thats an interesting way of dealign with being made fun of i suppose." He replied. It made sence to try and laugh at yourself like everyone else laughed at you, though Jeff couldn't see himself doing that. "I'm sorry, you don't remind me of anyone I know..." Jeff said, a small, rather crooekd smile crept across his face, just reaching his eyes. "It would have been pretty interesting if you did, I suppose." He added, almost comfortable with the conversation now.

Kella laughed. "Yes, it would be very interesting indeed." He seemed like a very nice guy, just like her friend. Her smile faded as she wondered what he was doing.
She sighed and shook her head. "How long have you lived in Forks?" she asked, peering over at him. She could tell that he was slowly beginning to relax into the conversation.

She seemed almsot completley at ease. Well as much as you could be at ease whentalkign to a stranger. "Sence i was maybe fourteen or so.. What about you?" He asked, genuine curosity comming into his tone. HE wondered why he hadn't seen ehr around here before. Other then fact that he actualyl lived on the reservation. But still, you think you would have noticed her if she had been here for as long as he'd been here.OOC: Can't remember hwo long I said in his Bio so.. lol Also.. sorry about the short post..

"I moved here about three weeks ago," she replied. Kella could see the curiousity coming out and couldn't help but smile a bit. This was the first time in a really long time that she had really talked with anyone and it felt good.
"Where about do you live?" she asked, curious herself. She took in the dark hair and eyes. Maybe he lived on the reservation. She had heard about it in her short time in Forks.
OOC: Don't feel bad. I'm kinda torn in between a few things here and don't really have much inspiration myself.

"Ah, a newbie 'round here are you?" He said good naturedly as he glanced over his shoulder casually. A smile played across his copper skin as he turned to look back at her. "I live up in La Push." He answered, as he ran his hand over his black hair. His white teeth still visible through his smile. Still not completley relaxed, though pretty close..OOC: yeah.. other posts. honestly.. this one not feelign to important to me but still fun

"Really? Is it nice up there?" she asked. Kella was smiling a little herself.
She tucked a few loose strands behind her ear. "So, what do you do on the reservation for excitement? It can't be much bigger than Forks." She tilted her head slightly, waiting for his reply.

Jeff leaned back on his heels, tucked his left arm across his chest and propped his right elbow on his left forearm, so that his copper skinned hand could rub his chin as he thought about her question. "Fun? In La Push?" He asked, mock surprise present as he stared at her in disbelief, also fake. "Well.. There are plenty of things to do I suppose. Though it depends on if you like the outdoors or not. Plenty of trails and stuff. And a beach." He replied, a little more seriously. Though just a little. "As for the niceness. Well, the some comes for a visit every decade or so, just like here." He replied. "So.. Where do you come from?" His casual tone was rather conversational. Though there was only so much you could easily say about La Push. He wanted to change the subject before it got to boring, or to hard to think of answers.

Kella was silent for a moment while she thought of her answer. Should she say California, where she had spent most of her teenaged years, but had never really considered her home? Should she say Tennessee, where the most memories were? Or should she say Alabama, the home that she had never known?
Finally, she said, "Most recently, I've come from Tennessee. I went to college there for a little while, but decided to move because of personal reasons."

He listened, she seemed to hesitate for a while. Jeff wondered why but wouldn't press her to answer. But she did answer him, after a moment. Tennessee. "Really? Never been there before. Whats it like?" He asked. The sun was probably out more, it probably didn't rain so much. Stuff like that. OOC; Gee... Bad posty again.. sorry

She smiled, her eyes looked off, but not really seeing anything. "It was wonderful. The countryside was absolutely beautiful, with lush green mountains and cool air. Every winter, it snowed. It may not have neccisarily have stuck, but it was fun to play in while it lasted. Nashville was my favorite place. It was always bustling with country stars and the like. I absolutely loved it."
A car honking brought her back to the present, back to Forks, and she sighed. She missed Tennessee and its warm days. She smiled, slightly melancholy.
OOC: It's okay. I'm kinda distracted today anyway.

He smield slightly as he watched ehr mind wander back to Tennessee. Must have bene some place. HE thought as she came back. A horn honking made Jeff glance over his shoulder, suddenly angry. His hands shook ever so slightly. He tried not to be angry, he tried to be calm, he took a deep breath and the irrational anger ebbed away as quickly as it had started. His hands stopped shaking, he hopped that Kella didn't notice. "Sounds cool." He mumbeled quietly unsure of how to respond to her at the moment.OOC; *Sigh* may as well end the thread soon.. not that i don't enjoy it but a talk between strangers can only go on so long.. BEsides.. I just had an idea.. though I'm guna hold off on postign about it..

She nodded. "Yeah." She checked her watch and sighed. It was about time for her to go. If she was going to make Seattle to drop off some stuff, she might as well be heading out now.
Kella gave him a warm smile. "It was wonderful meeting you. I hope we see each other again. I really do hate to end this now, but I have some stuff I have to do."
OOC: Okay. That sounds good to me.
