I do not own The Vampire Diaries or Twilight.

So here's chapter 4. Also there are pictures for the story on my profile!

It was if I had lost something a long time ago and he was it. If felt like a part of my heart, which I never knew was missing, was just filled by the gorgeous man sitting across from me.

As I started to come out of it I noticed he had the same expression as I did. Everyone was looking at us oddly. Kim and Emily were giving me excited grins and the guys were looking at Paul and gauging his reaction.

As I looked back to Paul I noticed that he was trembling. His whole body looked like it was having convulsions. Sam suddenly stood up and put his hand on Paul's shoulder.

"Paul come with me." He said with authority in his voice.

As he dragged Paul away I almost wanted to whimper from the feeling of loss without him there. Kim and Emily gave me sympathetic looks. I had no idea what was going on, but this wasn't what I had planned for when I moved here.

PAUL'S POV

As I let Sam drag me through the woods all I could think about was Bonnie. The way her red hair glowed in the fire light. The way her petite and fragile body made me want to hold her and protect her from the world.

"Paul snap out of it." Sam said. I finally realized where we were and looked at Sam.

"You imprinted on her didn't you." Sam said with a grin. I knew I had. All I could think about was running back to her.

"Yeah Sam I did." I said with a grin. He smiled at me.

"Well congrats. She's a nice girl and the pack has already taken a liking to her surprisingly." It was surprising considering we don't really open up to outsiders, especially people new to town.

"Why do you think we all feel so comfortable around her?" I asked curiously. Not that it's a bad thing. It's just really strange for the pack to trust someone that fast. We tended to stay to the pack and that's it.

"Maybe it's because she's your imprint and the wolves sense that she's their pack sister, so their ok with her." He said. It made sense, but I just had a feeling that it was something else all- together.

"Come on lets head back. People are going to start wondering where we are." I looked over and I could see him chuckling and shaking his head.

"What?" I asked suspiciously. He just kept laughing. I could feel my temper flare.

"What is so god damn funny?" I asked impatiently. He looked up finally sensing that I wasn't playing around.

"I just never thought that the big, bad, vicious, womanizing Paul Lahote, would find an imprint in a little, innocent girl like Bonnie." He started laughing again. I hated the way her name came out of his mouth. The possessive instincts kicked in and I threw him into a tree . He growled and tried to push me off, but when a wolf was protecting their mate no one could stop them.

"Paul relax. I was just kidding." I took a deep breath and let him go, instantly feeling stupid for my outburst.

"Sorry Sam, I don't know what happened." I told him honestly. He shook his head and looked me in the eye.

"Look Paul your instincts are going to be heightened for a while until you mate with her and claim her. Even after, it will take some restraint. But you can't go and hit any guy that talks to her." I growled at the thought of a guy going near her. It made me want to scoop her up and hide her.

"You have to be careful Paul. If you're not you could scare her away." He said seriously.

I thought about what he said. I could already feel the possessive and protectiveness as I looked around the beach for her. I found her sitting next to Collin , Brady, and Seth. She was laughing at something they said and her laugh made my heart skip a beat. But as I saw Collin put his arm around her I wanted to beat the shit out of him. My wolf snarled at this. I growled loud enough for only the wolves to hear and they all looked over to me. I glared at Collin and he instantly moved his arm. He got up and moved over next to Embry. 'Smart move pup.' I thought.

The wolf settled down and was almost purring with happiness as I looked at Bonnie. I could feel the guys watching me as I walked over to her. They all stiffened and watched what I would do. I growled lowly again and they all backed down. Their wolves sensing the stronger one since I'm Sam's Beta. They somewhat relaxed and let me sit by my mate without problems.

BONNIE'S POV

The air suddenly seemed to buzz with tension and that weird feeling came back. I looked around and noticed Sam and my gorgeous man, who I just learned was Paul, come back. Everything seemed to be fine but I just couldn't place where the feeling was coming from. As I shivered from the cold I felt Collin wrap his arm around my shoulder. His skin felt like it was on fire! But before I could say anything he dropped his arm so fast you would have thought I bit him. I watched confused as Collin suddenly got up and moved next to Embry. He gave me an apologetic smile and looked over at Paul. All the guys stiffened so slightly that I could have just imagined it. They looked at him as if he was a wild tiger and they were afraid of what he would do next. What was going on here? As he made his way over to me they seemed to relax. He sat down in the spot Collin had been in before.

"So Bonnie you have any boyfriends back in Virginia?" Jacob asks teasingly. I felt Paul stiffen next to me but I just kept looking towards the fire.

"No, I don't have a boyfriend. Why, are you offering?" I winked at him with a teasing grin. I was surprised at myself. A comment like that would normally make me remember Damon and make me want to curl into a ball. But now it's like nothing happened. What the hell is going on?

He chuckled. It was so low that I wasn't sure if I heard it, but it almost sounded like Paul was growling. Jacob lost his grin and looked into the fire. I finally turned to Paul and looked at him. He was probably one of the most gorgeous men I had ever seen. He was tall just like the rest of them, but he seemed to have more muscle on him than any of the others. He was BUILT. But it wasn't in the gross bodybuilder way. On him it just seemed natural. He had dark russet skin that made us seem like night and day next to each other. His light, caramel eyes seemed to glow in the fire light. As I ogled him he turned and looked at me.

"Bonnie would you like to take a walk with me?" As he looked at me it felt like I could melt into a puddle at his feet. As I snapped out of it and remembered his question I accepted.

We got up and walked along the shore.

"So how are you liking La Push so far?" He asked.

"It's nice here. I love how peaceful it is." He chuckled.

"After you've been here for a while that peacefulness will turn into boredom real fast." I picked up a rock and threw it into the ocean barely making it past the waves. He picked one up as well and threw it twice as far as me giving me a smirk when I teasingly rolled my eyes at him.

He finally stopped and turned to me.

" Hey I was wondering if you would want to go on a date with me tomorrow?" he asked. I couldn't believe it. He just asked me out!

"Yeah that sounds great." I told him smoothly while on the inside I was doing a happy dance. Oh who was I kidding I was doing a freaking happy cheer. Ok breathe Bonnie breathe.

"I'll pick you up around 5 if that's ok?" I smiled.

"Yeah that sounds great." He smiled and we continued walking down the beach.

"So how old are you Paul?" I ask him. I didn't really know much about him besides his name.

"I'm 21." Wow, I thought he was like 27 or something.

"Wow you look a lot older." I told him truthfully.

"So what about you?"

"I'm 18." Thank god! I would hate to have to worry about age becoming a problem.

"So are you still in school?"

"No I graduated last year. Thank god. I don't know if I could have survived it any longer." I told him jokingly.

"Ah gotcha yeah school was a pain in the ass for me to." Something about him just made me want to tell him everything.

We had walked a long ways from the fire. Everyone looked like specs behind us.

"So what do you do during the day?" I asked breaking the silence.

"I work at Sam's mechanic shop." He said. As the wind blew I couldn't stop the shiver that went through me.

"Hey come here." he said noticing me shivering. As I stepped closer to him he put his arms around me. His skin, like Collin's, was burning hot, but somehow it felt good against my skin.

"You're really hot." I blurted out. I instantly blushed. He chuckled

"Well thanks you're not so bad yourself."

"I.. that's not what I…I meant…"he chuckled again.

"I'm kidding. My skin just runs hotter than most." Yeah no kidding. But I kept it to myself to save myself from further embarrassment.

"So tomorrow what exactly are we going to be doing on this said date?" I ask as I lean deeper into his arms. I can feel his arms tighten around me and I just wanted to pause time and stay like this forever.

"Well I figure movies and dinner are a little cliché." I nod and he continues.

"Sooooo….." he draws it out. I smack him but he doesn't even seem to feel it. Dear lord what is that boy made out of a freaking brick? I did more damage to my hand than to him.

"Well?" I ask him impatiently.

"It's a surprise." He whispers in my ear. I can feel his breath on my neck and shiver slightly from the feeling.

I turn to face him and look into his eyes. The feeling from earlier came back. It felt like the whole world stopped and we were the only people. I stared at his soft lips and imagined what it would be like to kiss him.

He seemed to follow my thoughts because he leaned down towards me and before I knew what I was doing I wrapped my arms around his shoulders and kissed him.

It felt like nothing I had ever felt before. Even kissing Damon didn't feel this good. It felt like everything was right in the world. It went beyond fireworks. It felt like the sun just exploded. I never wanted this moment to end. He pressed me to him tighter. I groaned at the feeling and I could feel him smirk against my lips. He pressed his tongue to my lips asking for entrance. Are tongues fought for dominance and he won. As his tongue explored my mouth I could feel his hands running along my back. I had let my hands begin to wander as well. They had trailed down from his shoulders and were feeling the muscles in his back. I moved my hand to his stomach and almost moaned when I felt his perfectly defined 8 pack.

As I broke the kiss for air we were both panting. I looked into his eyes and felt like I could fly.

"We should be heading back. It's getting late." I said just now realizing how long we were gone.

He nodded and grabbed my hand. We walked back in silence just enjoying the others company when we finally made it back to the others.

Some were packing up and most had already left. I asked Emily if she needed any help but she just told me she was fine and to go home. I gave her a hug and left with Paul walking next to me.

"So I guess I'll see you tomorrow." I tell him as we make it to my car. It was almost funny seeing him look over my baby.

"Wow nice car. I didn't expect you to be into Camaros." He said surprised. I had gotten a new car right after I had called the real estate agent. I laughed and looked up at him.

"Well we all have our secrets." I told him in the most flirtatious voice I could muster.

"Oh really now? " He smirked and leaned down and gave me a soft, sweet, kiss that made me want to melt.

"I'll see you tomorrow." He said as he opened my door and helped me in. I was still in a daze as I looked in the rear view mirror and noticed he was smirking.

Okay so how did ya'll like chapter 4? Let me know what you think of the story! Until next time guys :)
