Chapter 5 – New Housemate and Pauls house

Bella POV

I woke up feeling exhausted. I had hardly slept all night, thanks to Paul, but I had to get up. Today I was house hunting. Oh joy.

I got dressed in a pair of skinny jeans, a plain black tank top, finishing off with my black converse and my favorite silver love heart necklace that came down just over my chest with my hair falling loosely down my back.

I didn't need to pack because I had never even gotten the chance to unpack.

I wanted to stay in La Push, somewhere by the beach. I love this reservation. I had just moved back and wasn't ready to let it go again.

"What are you up to today?" Charlie asked, using small talk.

"Looking for a house." I said, my eyes not leaving my cereal. I didn't want to see his judgments this morning.

"Look Bells, you don't have to move out and where would you get the money from anyway?" He asked me using his soft voice.

"Yes, I do and I have a little something saved up and I could easily get a job."I told him. I didn't really have a little something, I had a lot

of something. I had been saving for a long time and had a few jobs back in Jacksonville.

I stood up to go.

"I best start searching. Don't know what time I will be in to collect my bags so, see-ya later." I told him. I was gonna try to stay out of this house as much as possible today.

Paul POV

I walked in to Sam's house after patrol and saw Bella and Leah with shit eating grins on there faces. I thought they hated each other.

After I heard them both squeal with excitement I walked up to Jared. I wanted to know what the hell was going on

"What's up with them?" I asked him. He looked just as confused as me.

"I have know idea. They have been like that for a while and no one has a clue what's going on. Its scaring everyone. Leah just had a girl

moment." He told me not looking away from them. A few minutes later they finally stood up and walked up to Sam.

Bella whispered something in his ear and he nodded, his face paling slightly.

They then walked out the door and got into Bella's car.

"Sam, what the hell is going on?" Jacob asked.

"Bella and Leah are going to be house sharing." What the hell was he on to? Bella hates Leah and I'm sure the feeling is mutual.

"Great. I finally get a cool sister and she is moving out with my annoying sister." Seth complained. He seemed to be the only one not

realizing how much hell this will be if they actually become friends.

Bella POV

I never thought I would see the day where I was house sharing with Leah, looking forward to it, and getting excited.

We sat Indian style facing each other, whispering about what we were going to do. We had heard all the guys at one point ask

what was going on and that us talking was freaking them out, which I found hilarious and so did Leah.

"So, I think we should tell Sam now, and make an escape while he tells the rest of the guys." Leah said. She was actually a really fun, loving person as soon as you broke down the walls that she puts up, thanks to Sam.

"And where would we go?" I asked.

"To a furniture store of course! To buy what we need and get someone to deliver it to our house and then tomorrow we will go clothes shopping because we can't buy a house without a new wardrobe." She told me as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

"I like the way you think." I stood up and pulled her up with me. We walked up to Sam hand-in-hand and dragged him into the hallway.

"So, as you know, I want to move out of Charlie's after the whole situation last night. Well, Leah hates it there and wants to get out and

if two people were paying the rent it would be a whole lot easier than just one person paying rent. So we are going to move in together.

You can break it to the boys. Oh, and we're going out furniture shopping so don't wait up." I didn't wait for a reply and quickly ran out of

the room with Leah close behind.

"Did you see his face?" Leah asked when we were in the truck. "What's got people so scared about us moving in together?" I shrugged

and started the car up.

"There are few reasons. One, they don't think we get along with each other and that we will probably kill each other but we have gotten past that now. Two, we're both as evil as each other and all of them are scared of us (even Sam) and it will be worse now that we're friends." I told her.

"So where do you wanna go first?"

SIX HOURS LATER

We had gotten all the furniture we needed and some pretty good bargains, I think in total we went to about fifteen maybe more furniture stores. Leah can shop just as much as I can.

We beat the vans there and it took about 10 minutes after we arrived for them to come. We had a lot of stuff and I wasn't planning on lifting a thing.

It was late so we were planning on doing everything tomorrow and crashing at Charlie's tonight. Plus Leah still had to tell Sue.

We had found the perfect house already. It didn't need anything done to it, was very modern and the two main bedrooms both had big

walk-in wardrobe's perfect for two young women. The only thing we needed was furniture, it had a oven and dish washer and kitchen things already fitted in.

"I think our work for today is done." Leah said.

"But, there's one problem. We still have one more night at Charlie's." I said sighing.

"We could always ask one of the guys if we could crash at their house. I know Paul lives alone and Jake is my imprint so if I use my

puppy dog eyes on him he is bound to say yes."

"Jake's your imprint?" 'How did I not know this?' I thought as she blushed

"Sorta." She said smiling.

We walked to Sam's house as it was only 5 minutes from our new home.

"Right. So, we got this right? I sigh really loudly and you ask me what's wrong and I say the house isn't ready and

I really don't want to stay at Charlie's house tonight and you sigh and say me too." I told her.

"Lets do this!" We fist bumped each other which had become our thing now during shopping.

We walked into Sam's and went and sat down on the sofa. Everybody in the pack was there, which was good. More of a show I started off the sighing really loud which caught peoples attention.

"What's wrong Bella?" Leah asked, playing her part.

"Well, it's just that we still have to spend another night at Charlie's, and I really don't want to go back there tonight." I said, sighing again

She sighed as well.

"Me too." We then both sighed together and looked up with puppy dog eyes at the guys as all their eyes were on us.

"I have a spare room at my house Bella if you wanna take it."

Paul said. I looked at him. Our plan worked perfectly but was I really going to spend the night at Paul's house? It was the best offer

I was gonna get. I didn't really want to spend the night at anyone else's, so I smiled and nodded.

"Thanks." he smiled at me, glad that I was taking his offer.

"Leah, you know your always welcome at mine." Jake said. Leah went up and kissed his cheek and he blushed a deep red.

AT PAULS HOUSE

"Thank you for letting me stay here. I really don't want to face Charlie right now." I smiled at him a genuine smile - the ones that I don't use often.

"No problem. There are two guest rooms that the guys normally crash in. You can go in either one." he told me,

I was surprised he hadn't made a comment saying that I could always sleep in his room.

I felt so uncomfortable being around him ever since that night. I shouldn't have said anything.

"Look, Bella, about the other night. Can we just talk?" He asked, looking at me with his deep brown eyes making me melt away.

"We're talking now Paul." I want him so bad. He is so close but so far out of my reach.

"You know that's not what I meant. Look, I'm sorry if I hurt you before you left, and it took everything in me not to follow after you,

but my stupid stubborn pride got the best of me and so instead I spent every minute thinking of what could have been and every

second of missing you."

"That's a bunch of crap Paul. Jake had me filled in on what everyone was up to and he said that you had a new girl in your pants everyday."

I choked out, on the verge of tears.

"Oh. So you're telling me you didn't have sex once while you were away?" he argued back at me.

"NO, BUT AT LEAST I DIDN'T LEAD YOU ON AND SAY THAT I WAS THINKING ABOUT YOU EVERY MINUTE AND ALL THAT BULLSHIT!"

Tears were streaming down my face and I wasn't going to give away the secret any second now I tried thinking of happy things.

I could not morph into some giant girl wolf in front of him at the moment, but all I could see was him.

"Bella, the only reason I was with those girls is because they helped me forget that

the only girl I really wanted was you." I sank to the floor crying pulling my knee's up to my chest and burying my head there.

Thee shaking had slowed down a bit but the tears had sped up.

He came and sat down next to me and put an arm around me, I heard him mumble an 'I'm sorry' and then walk out of the room.

I didn't move a single inch from where I was sat, it must have been at least half an hour since he had walked out of the room.

The crying had stopped. Now I just felt empty.

I knew it was a bad idea to come to Paul's. I heard Paul walk back in the room.

"Look Bella, I'm sorry-" I crossed the small distance between us and kissed him. I could tell he was shocked at first but quickly

recovered and wrapped his arms around my waist. I wrapped my arms around his neck knotting my hand through his hair. We broke

away after what seemed like hours of heaven.

"Wow." He whispered and I smiled.

"Paul, I really like you but, I don't like opening up my heart and feeling this vulnerable because I'm afraid if I do, I'll get hurt again and

I don't think I could take that." I said in a small voice.

"Bella, I would never hurt you." I smiled and kissed him again running my hands up his shirt and placing them on his very toned and hot six pack.

We some how ended up on the couch. Him on top of me, with his shirt now over at the other side of the room.
