Sorry for the long wait, but was down for a while and I was unable to put up the chapter much less Update my profile like I wanted. :[

This chapter should be much better with much less grammatical errors thanks to my wonderful Beta, Amarynthis. She rocks! :]

"Paul, wake up you lazy bum!" Jacob all but yelled. "You do know we have a little thing called school today…"

Paul growled as he turned on the couch pulling his pillow over his head.

"You do know there is a new girl that is supposed to come to school today, right?"

Suddenly Paul jumped out of his bed and ran into the bathroom to shower.

"Wait, hey! I was going to shower first!" Jacob pounded on the bathroom door as Paul looked at himself in the mirror.

Maybe I'd finally imprint, he thought to himself before jumping into the shower.

"Finally," Jake yelled running into the bathroom as Paul walked out. What's the guy got to worry about? He already has an imprint.

She was perfect for him. Amanda's presence got Jake off the whole Bella-induced depression, and she could cook! She helps Emily with the cooking, much to Sam's pleasure. Sam always worries that his Emily would get over worked, and everyone loves Amanda's famous Honey Dijon Smoked Salmon.

Paul walked into Jake's room and grabbed the bottle of Axe off the dresser and sprayed himself. He didn't want to smell like a dog when meeting his possible imprint. He chuckled at his own little inside joke.

"Alright let's go, Romeo. Don't want to keep the girls waiting," Jacob said, and by girls he meant his sweet little Amanda…

Paul just rolled his eyes and followed him out to the car, soon his good mood diminished.

*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*

Paul followed Jake to the corner table the gang usually hung out with the girls. He looked around at all the guys. They all had a girl hanging off them. He glared at no one in particular as he sat down next to Embry and his girl, Maria. It wasn't fair that he was the only guy without an imprint! Save for Leah that is, but she gave up on the whole waiting thing a long time ago, and decided to fall in love the old fashion way.

She sat there across from him now whispering to her little sweetie, Daniel, or Danny as he insisted they call him. She had decided to go to high school again for lack of something to do. For the pack this is about the 4th round of high school. He clenched his fists trying to control his temper. Time has been a factor in curbing his temper and he was getting better at not phasing in a fit of anger.

"Hey, Paul," Not-So-Little Clair said as she and Quil sat down across from him at the table.

Paul fake smiled at her still feeling the need to protect her from his temper.

"Ready to imprint on the new girl," Embry asked as he elbowed Paul and wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.

Paul just glared daggers at Embry and pulled out his buzzing cell phone. The female student body somehow kept getting his number no matter how many times he changed it. He had a feeling it was one of his pack brothers but could never prove it.

Hey Paul, Just broke up w/my BF.

Busy this Fri?

XOXO Cynthia

He sighed and clicked to ignore the text. Some girls just don't know the line between hinting and desperate.

His phone started vibrating again, showing a private number.

"Hello?" He said in a gruff voice.

"Paul, I love you!" shrieked a shrill voice before she hung up. A nearby group of girls burst out laughing. In the middle of it all, a member of the group had just snapped her phone shut with a snicker.

Way to make it obvious, he thought to himself, shaking his head, those girls were really getting on his nerves!

The school bell rang and Jake shot Paul a glare, most likely blaming him for only having five minutes to hang out with Amanda. He just shrugged it off and headed to his locker. He grabbed his science book and trudged to Biology.

"Have you seen the new girl yet?" Seth asked as Paul sat down with his lunch tray.

"Nope," he popped the 'p' at the end and took a massive bite out of his green apple, the juices going down his chin. He wiped it off with the back of his hand, "You?"

"Yup," Seth popped his 'p' in mimicry of Paul's earlier response. "But I already imprinted. You're the one that needs to see her."

Paul growled, "Would you guys give it a rest? I'm not going to imprint, ever!" With that he slammed down his apple rushed outside into the woods. Why must he be the only one that is alone?!? He was sick of getting his hopes up only to have to handle the disappointment, and having the pack feel sorry for him. He was getting tired of it and dared not get his hopes up. He had dashed them as soon as they came that morning only to save himself. He was going to pretend there was no one new at school and see if maybe one day he will imprint… But he was not going to force it anymore by looking for it. He was going to let it find him. I mean seriously, why should he be the one doing all the effort? Seconds later he exploded, and was gone from school grounds before the rags that were once his shirt fluttered to the ground…
