"Well, this is just great. Another set of imprints..." Sam said off in the distance before mumbling to himself about how he could go his whole life not knowing anything about his sister's love life and that he was doomed to suffer, either by Paul's thoughts or at the hands of Bella.

Bella rolled her eyes at Sam, "Relax, nothing is going to melt your poor innocent mind Samuel," She said "Now, I believe we have a bonfire to plan. We have a new pack brother as well as a new imprint. I can't wait to tell the boys!" Bella exclaimed as she jumped around the yard, immediately thinking of food that she was going to make and wondering if Jared was going to tell Kim about them too. She ran inside Paul's house to find the phone she disregarded while trying to calm Paul.

Looking around the room for a few seconds, her heightened vision easily found it, quickly sliding it opened, and she called Jared. Just as he answered, she was making her way back out to her boys, "Belly Boo, what's wrong?" He asked quickly She smiled at his voice "Oh nothing Jar-Bear, only you have a new brother and we have another imprinting!" She said animatedly not bothering to consider Paul hadn't been around the pack due to safety precautions. She heard a growl as she was talking on the phone, she looked around to find that Paul looked angry and Sam seemed to be keeping him from bolting into the woods. Seeing the look in his eyes, Bella frowned, "Bonfire tomorrow, but pack meeting in an hour, our house okay? Got to go, give Kim kisses for me." "Now that is something I can do!" He said joyfully before the wolves heard a girl giggling through the phone. Bella quickly hung up and walked closer to Paul.

"You okay Paulie?" She asked, reaching a hand out to touch his arm but he jerked away from her. "What was that?" He asked angrily. She frowned, her eyebrows scrunching together in question. "What on earth-" Then it hit her, Stupid, stupid. She thought before sighing. "Paul, that was Jared, a brother to both of us, and also imprinted to the lovely Kim. I am so sorry, I forgot you hadn't really been hanging out with us and with your fresh anger and imprint, this can be very confusing. " She started explaining herself. Paul gave her a look that said he wasn't sure yet. "Honest to God, ask Sam. I view him like I view Sam. Jared is harmless, we are imprinted Paul, you and I. I see no one like I see you." At her words, he seemed to relax and moved towards her to make contact with her body.

"Sorry." He mumbled before pulling her against him, his nose finding her neck to breathe her in and calm down the animalistic voice in his head that she knew he was fighting. Bella looked up to see that Sam was missing, most likely rain off to go see Emily and tell her about the bonfire we needed to prepare for as well as feeding the pack tonight for the meeting. Bella pulled Paul away from her body and looked him in the eyes, "Let's go back to my house, I, as Alpha Female must help Emily with making food to feed our hungry asses. Okay?" His stomach growled at the mention of food which only caused him to smirk at her. Before she knew it she was up and over Paul's shoulder as he walked in the direction of her house. She giggled at his playfulness before saying, "You know, I should be mad about this. I mean I am a capable shifter that can walk on her own…" But… As if he could hear her inner voice he asked, "But what?" She sighed "I feel lazy and I mean, I get a lovely view, so why not sit back and enjoy the ride." She laughed as she lightly patted his butt to prove she was talking about his ass. Her comment only seemed to make him laugh, a big hardy belly laugh.

Once they arrived at Bella and Sam's house, Paul let Bella down and she quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him with her through the door. She bee lined right for the kitchen to see Sam sitting with Emily in his lap quietly talking to each other. Bella smiled at the two before grabbing Emily's attention, "Em, officially meet Paul, new brother and my imprint." She said quickly. Emily's eyes grew wide before squealing and gathering Bella into her arms and they jumped around. A couple minutes later, Emily stopped bouncing around to clear her throat and looked at Paul, "Sorry about that, it is lovely to finally meet the famous Paul, and on such lucky circumstances at that." She gave him a wink and he easily winked back before holding his hand out to her in standard greeting. She shook her head and threw herself at him in a hug before quickly letting go and moving back over to Sam.

After some light conversation, Bella made the final decision to kick the boys out and let the Alpha girls take over the kitchen to feed the pack. A few hours later, most of the food was done but Bella started to feel almost sick to her stomach. Bella mentioned that maybe they should sit and take a breather before finishing up, without realizing it, Bella was almost lead outside onto the back patio to find Paul laying in the grass staring up at the rare clear sky. She managed to find herself right next to him before laying her head on his chest. She felt instant relief once they made contact with each other. Paul moved his head to look at her with a smile. "I almost knew you were going to show up, I started to feel sick. I don't like that feeling B." He mumbled. Nodding her head in agreement, "Yea I think because we are newly imprinted it is a side effect. Sam used to be like that with Emily for a while, I think with time it will get easier." She mumbled into his chest.

She looked back up at him, opening her mouth as if she were going to say something when a large ruckus came from the tree line and three shifters came barreling into the yard. Stopping almost immediately with the smell of a new shifter hit their noses. All three headed whipped around to stare at Paul and Bella lying in the grass. Bella's eyes grew wide, before she could say anything they were running at them..

A/N: Don't hate me! I should be posting regularly about a chapter a month, maybe two depending on my work and school schedule. Again, so sorry for the ridiculous wait. Please review, I love seeing that people actually read my stories.
