Paul's POV
After watching Bella go off on Sam like that I couldn't help but smile. She really is my imprint, I think laughing.
"What do you find so damn funny?" Sam growls at me as we get in my car.
"Calm the hell down. You don't need Charlie coming out and you phasing. I was laughing about Bella she really is my imprint." I smack him.
"I really wish you'd stop saying that," Sam says.
"What in the fuck is your problem man? You've never had a problem with me talking about her. Not until after this shit happened to us."
"Some shit came to my attention. That is all I will say on the damn matter." Sam looks out the window.
I couldn't help but wonder what his problem was. I decided to leave it and head to Sam's house. We pull up to see Embry and Jared coming out of the trees. They come running up to the car expecting Bella to be in the car. I get out of the car and pull out my phone.
Is it bad that I miss you already? Paul
No Paul because I miss you as well. Ugh tonight needs to fly by so I can see you. Tink
Well, after you get done with what your doing want me to come steal you? Paul
I'll talk to dad. But hang with Sam and the guys because you won't be seeing them tomorrow. In fact tell Sam we'll be heading to Seattle tomorrow. Tink
Why we going to Seattle, Tink? Paul
I need a car and you know cars better than anyone I know. Therefore you have to come with me. I could just ask Jar or someone else. Tink
I'll go with you Tinkerbell but I have to get something in return ;) Paul
"Where's Bell at?" Jared asks.
"Home with Charlie. She said she'll be spending tomorrow with me. She'll be spending time with everyone one on one for a few days." I wait for her response.
"Did Sam tell her?" Embry asks.
"Tell her what?" Jared and I ask at the same time.
"Oh, nothing." Embry runs in the house.
What would you like in return Paul? And would you please stop calling me Tinkerbell. I don't mind Tink or Tinker but I hate the name Tinkerbell. Tink
Well you'll always be my Tinkerbell so remember that. I want to be close to you. Hold your hand, kiss you, pull you to my side, for you to be mine. Paul
Jared and I share a look before heading into the house. Emily meets us at the door and hands us a plate of food. I smile and wish that Bella was here with me. My phone buzzes and I smile.
Wait, I'm not yours already? Damn here I was telling myself that I was Paul Lahote's girl. Tink
Damn Tink! You tell yourself your mine? Well then hell I've got everything I could ever need. Have you talked to your dad? Paul
"So where is your friend at Sam?" Emily asks sitting next to him.
"She couldn't make it. Said something about spending time with da...her dad." Sam looks at her.
Jared and I raise an eyebrow at what he just caught himself saying. He shakes his head and Embry gets up.
"You need to tell her." Is all he says before disappearing out the back door.
Can't tonight. Dad says there is something he wants to talk to me about. What are you doing? Tink
Well, I'm getting ready to question the hell out of Sam. Has your dad said anything about Sam? Paul
Not other than how my ride home was. I will let you get back to Sam while I unpack. See you tomorrow morning. Tink
Alright Tink. Get some decent sleep and I'll pick you up tomorrow. Night beautiful. Paul
"Who are you talking to?" Sam asks.
"Tink. She needs a new car so we're gonna head to Seattle tomorrow for car shopping," I tell him leaving out the whole me wanting her to be mine.
"She doesn't have the money for a car." Sam shakes his head.
"How in the hell do you know that?" I growl.
"Yo, Paul why you getting so upset about Bells?" Jared calls out.
"Sam hates hearing it but shes my imprint." I look at him.
"Shit!" We hear Embry say from out back.
"Embry go the fuck home! You are not to phase until I say otherwise." Sam growls.
"Man, you're lucky its my time to patrol or I would be questioning you." I take off out the back door.
Once phased I'm glad to see that I'm the only one in at the time. I sigh and think back to when I took off.
(Flashback)
I just phased into a giant fucking dog! I couldn't see straight. How could fucking Sam say that shit! He had no fucking idea what he was talking about when it came to Bella and I.
"She called Paul and said she wanted nothing to fucking do with you. She hates you Paul!"
Paul I only said that to get you to phase. We all saw the signs and I was the only one who knew how to get under your skin. Sam
What in the hell are you doing in my fucking head? Paul
Its part of what we are. Sam
And exactly what the fuck did I turn into? Paul
You remember the legends don't you? Sam
Of course. Every time we have a damn bonfire we listen to the elders tell the story. Paul
Well now you know what you are. Sam
Is this why you disappeared for a while? Is this the reason you broke up with Leah? If that second one is a yes, then why in the hell did you get with Emily. Paul
You've heard of the imprinting legend, correct? Sam
Yes, I have. Why what in the fuck does that have to do with anything? Paul
I imprinted on Emily when I went to say sorry to Leah. I didn't know it would happen and I didn't expect it to. Sam
He replayed the night he told Emily and how close she got. They got into a huge fight and he got pissed. He ended up phasing not realizing that she was that close. He spent the entire time she was in the hospital in the woods hiding. Billy and Harry finally coaxed him out of the woods telling him Emily wanted to see him.
After that it took a week for me to change back. When I heard that Bella was threatening to kick Sam's ass I phased back laughing. I got on the phone letting her know I was okay.
A month later she video calls me and when our eyes locked, even through computer screen, I knew that she was mine. She had been talking but I couldn't recall until she hung up. I called her back and asked why she hung up. She said we'd been on there for an hour and I hadn't heard a word she was saying. A week later I got the best phone call of my life.
"Paul, are you with the guys?" Bella asked.
"Nope. I'm at home waiting for my food to get here. Why what's up Tinker?"
"I'll be home in three weeks," she says.
"Wait, what? Repeat that for me," I say thinking I heard her wrong.
"I'll be home in three weeks," she repeats.
"Seriously!"
"Yes, my mom and her husband have to travel for his work and I really don't want to. The house is being sold in three weeks so I called my dad. I'll be there in three weeks."
"Well, send me your flight info and I will come pick you up. I'm not going to wait to see you when you get here. First make sure it's okay with your dad."
"I already talked to dad and that's another reason I called."
"Well I'll be there. Text me the info."
Yo, Sam said to let you know Bella called. Jared
How much of that did you see? Why did Tink, fuck I forgot to let her know I was gonna run patrol. Paul
Jared's wolf barks in laughter as I head back to Sam's house. I couldn't believe that I forgot to tell my imprint about patrol.
"Hold on here he is," Sam says handing me the phone.
"I'm so fucking sorry Tink. I forgot to tell you that I had to run patrol. I thought we had said our good nights earlier." I pull my shorts up.
"I didn't call to talk to you. Put that son of a fucking bitch on the phone. He and I aren't done speaking."
"Who would that be exactly?" I laugh.
"Samuel!" She yells.
I laugh and walk back inside. I walk up to Sam and hand him the phone. I sit on the couch and sit back. I had to listen to this, but Sam walks outside. Damn him, I think.
"Bell, I didn't want him to fucking tell you. I was going to do that." We hear Sam say.
I look at Jared and he shrugs his shoulders. I'll have to ask her about it tomorrow. I smile and Jared starts laughing again. I punch him in his arm because I knew what he was laughing about.
"What is it?" Emily asks.
"Paul was thinking about Bella when I phased in."
"Jared, you know its natural to think of your imprint. Don't forget that Sam can see your thoughts of Kim." Emily smirks walking away.
"She got you there bro." I laugh. "I'm heading home for the night, Em. Tell Sam that I'll see him later."
I head home and was glad that I was able to talk my mom into moving out of town. She loved this place but I know it was killing her. She never got over my father and seeing him strutting around town with his slut of the week.
The dog starts barking and I laugh. Damn fucking dog knew it was me. I open the door and see the fucker laying on the couch. Lazy ass dog couldn't even get up to bark at the door.
"Come on Bear. Time to go out before we go to bed." I rush him out the door.
I check around the house to make sure there were no accidents. Shockingly I didn't find any so I went to let him in. I made my upstairs after locking the door. Sure I could take on anyone who dared entered but I like to have a warning. After I get upstairs I hop into the shower.
After the shower I get basketball shorts on and climb into bed. I pull my phone off the charger and text Bella. It'd been an hour since I left Sam's so I wondered if she was still going off on him.
Hey Tink. Thought I'd message you and see if your ready for tomorrow. Paul
Hey. Yeah but if you have any plans of Sam hanging out with us cancel them. Tink
No plans of him being with us so no worries. Even after car shopping I plan on keeping you for myself. Would say stay the night but not a hundred percent your dad would agree. Paul
Already told dad I'm staying with you tomorrow night. I'm gonna head to bed so I can run to the store before dad leaves for work. Night handsome and I'll see you in the morning. Tink
Sweet beautiful! Night babe. Hope you have a good nights sleep. Paul
I put my phone back on the charger and lay down on the bed. Bear comes running in and jumps on the bed. I groan and sit up to look at him.
"I hope you know you get to sleep on the floor tomorrow night. I have a tiny human coming home and I don't need us both suffocating her," I tell the dog like he can understand me.
