Ok guy's before you start reading this, you should know that my computer is acting really weird. I don't bold many things. I also don't underline anything. I don't know why it shows up like that, but I am very sorry about it. I really hope you like this chapter. I am also working on a different type of Leah imprint story. So please check that out also. As always please read and review!

Joey's point of view

I began walking through the parking lot at school. The lot was already filled with cars and students just hanging out and being loud. I started thinking about last night's conversation with Paul. I still was not sure rather or not to believe him. What he said about wanted to get to know me; it made me feel good for some reason. I felt this weird connection when I looked into his eyes. The only problem with me trying to trust him was the way he acted towards me before. There is no way someone could change overnight could they?

I didn't have much time before class was going to start so I quickened my pace. As I walked pass a group of student I felt a leg hit mine, and I fell to the ground. Before I could ever register what was going on, Paul pushed John to the side and was picking me up off the ground.

As he turned around and faced John again I could start to see that his body was shaking very hard. Jared then grabbed Paul pushing him toward the woods.

Everyone that was present at the parking lot turned back to look at me. Everyone was trying to figure out why of all people Paul stepped up and helped me. I could hear all the whispers around me.

Grabbing my books from the locker, I walked to my homeroom class. When I entered the room. Tina Marshal looked like she wanted to kill me. At first I didn't understand why she wanted to start with me.

"Joey!" She said with venom in her voice. Pulling me to the back of the room where we would be alone to talk.

"I don't know what the hell is going on, but whatever it is you better leave Paul the hell alone. He is mine and no nerd is going to ruin my reputation by having him hang out with someone like you. Why he even did that is still beyond me. If you go near him, anywhere near him again, what he used to put you through will be noting compared to what I do. Do you understand me, or do I need to show you what power at school I have at this school?"

I froze not in fear, but from how she was acting. Paul was one of the most popular guys, and when he did defend me it would of course be the talk of our small town. I was also not stupid; Tina would try her hardest to make my life a living hell here at school. If Paul wasn't going to be around me, and this was one big joke. The aftermath would be more hurt then I really could take. I was at my breaking point, and I didn't think that I could take much more.

The next few classes went just as well as homeroom did. History was the only class that I had with Paul. When I got to the classroom he was already their sitting in the seat next to mine. When he saw my face a huge grin appeared on his face. I couldn't help but smile at myself seeing his expression.

"Joey I hope that you don't mind me sitting next to you." Paul said as he stared into my eyes. In the process he was making me feel very uncomfortable, people were looking at him, like he lost his mind.

Sitting down next to him, it felt so right. I didn't know how to explain it. I felt for the first time that I had some hope of having a normal life again.

"Earth to Joey, come in Joey" Jared said taking Paul's normal spot behind him.

"I'm fine just thinking Jared!" I replied snapping my mind to the present.

"Joey, what is it, what's wrong? Do I need to take you to the nurse? Paul sounded so worried.

I couldn't help it, but I started to laugh at him, and how ridiculous he sounded. Jared even joined in, with his own laud laugh.

" I don't see what's so funny" Paul said, "I was worried about you."

"Sorry, Paul' I said while trying to hold a straight face.

I wanted to see what reaction I could get from him, so I put my head down and looked really sad.

"No, Joey it's ok don't be upset I am so sorry." Getting up from his seat to kneel at my side.

"Please don't cry, I'm didn't mean anything by it." Paul told me with the saddest face I have ever seen.

"It's ok Paul," I told him feeling bad about what I did to him.

I tuned to see if Jared was paying attention to what was happening.

He was not looking at us, but with wide eyes at the girl sitting behind me. He was looking at the girl the same way that Paul looked at me.

When the class started I glanced at Paul, every time I did, I meet with his eyes. I didn't manage to hear anything the teacher had to say for the whole class period.

The bell rang and before I even got out of my seat, Paul had my books in his hand waiting for me.

"What do you think you are doing now," I asked confused by his actions.

"Well your next class is next too mine, so I am going to walk you there."

"Paul, you don't have to carry my books you know, I do have arms you know!"

"I know you do, but I have them, also and want too; so I am going to." He smiled at me, knowing that he just won.

I turned around wondering where Jared was, because I know that his next class was with Paul. When I turned around I saw him standing at the wall in front of the girl he was staring at before. He was not saying anything to the girl that he was looking at. When Paul saw him something dawned on him, and he went and said something to him under his breath and pulled him away. Jared being pulled away never stopped looking at the girl.

"Joey, are you ready," Paul said trying to pull Jared toward class at the same time.

"Coming" was my only response to him.

The day at school ended and I started to lightly rain out. I really didn't want too get soaking wet so I was going to take the short cut I had in the woods.

Making one step into the woods, I heard my name being called out. I didn't need to turn around to know who it was.

"What are you doing going in the woods. It's not a safe place to be around" Paul said looking around for some type of danger. Like a bear was going to jump out at any minute.

"I walk around these woods all the time. I like to jog deep into the forest, I been going into these woods since I moved back here. There is really nothing in here that scares me." Looking in his eyes I saw fear in his eyes for my safety. Almost like I was crazy for wanting to go in there alone and unprotected.

"Please for me, stay out of the woods. You have no idea how dangerous it really is." Grabbing my hand leading me back down the sidewalk and back into the rain.

The walk at first was very awkward. I didn't know what to say to him. I wanted him to fully explain the real reason for changing his actions around me. I had about a million question I needed to ask, but not really sure how to even bring it up.

"Joey, I've been talking to you for the last five minutes." He called waved his hand in front of my face.

"Sorry, I was thinking about something. What were you saying now? Trying to hide my embarrassment.

"Is that a blush on your face." He said calling me out.

"No!" I said too quickly, blushing even more.

"Well seeing how you tried to trick me in English today, we will call it even ok.

"You knew I was trying too trick you, and you still didn't do anything."

"Well actually I didn't, until you just admitted it to me." He shoved his hands into his jeans pocket. Waiting for me to say to take in his answer.

I had the good graces to look embarrassed for my earlier actions.

Laughing at the face I was making he said. "Don't worry I am not mad at you for it. Just please don't make a habit of it. If something hurts you, I will feel the pain, like it was happening to me.

Stopping dead in my tracks 'what do you mean by that Paul."

"Come on Joey let's keep walking. One day I will explain everything to you."

Rolling my eyes at him "let me guess, today is not the day you are going to explain it to me, is it?"

He quickly shook his head no, answering my question.

As I looked at his face for some type of hidden explanation to this madness, the only thing that I could see was a look mixed between happiness and sorrow.

"Well" I said trying to come up with some small talk. "How come you let this morning from school. Where did you go?"

Looking at me strangely, he replied. " I didn't go home, I never left school.

"Well, why did you change your clothes then." Trying to understand him, and what secret he was trying to keep from me.

"Oh, I did, that's right I totally forget. I accidentally left my science homework in my room and needed to grab it. I stopped in the kitchen for a drink and spilled it on my shirt. So I ran back upstairs and changed my clothes real fast."

Before I could ask him any more questions we were at my front porch. Paul reached out and grabbed me into a huge bear hug. For some reason I didn't really mind. He was so was so warm and I was freezing from the walk in the rain. The only thing that I found strange was the fact the he was sniffing my hair! Why was he doing that?

"Paul" Sam yelled coming out from the woods.

I noticed that Paul didn't yell at him about the woods, talk about a double standard.

Sam was now standing at my front porch. "Something came up, I really need your help!" Giving Paul a knowing eye.

"Joey, I got to go stay in the house. I will talk to you later." With one final glance both boys ran straight into the woods.

As I stood there, watching them run of. I decided that I want answers and I wanted them now!

Paul point of view

Being with Joey today in school was like a little piece of heaven. Jared was making fun of me all day until he got to English class. Then the poor fool imprinted on a girl from our class. I almost felt sorry for the girl when he almost wouldn't let her go to her next class. From the looks of it he wanted to take her to Vegas and marry her in the next hour.

After my last class, I wanted to drive Joey home but remembered that I was so nervous about seeing her all day, I walked to school.

When I finally got outside I saw that she was heading into the woods. I ran over to her to the edge of the woods like a mad man to stop her. There was no way that she was going to go in there. When she told me that she regularly jogs in them, I almost had a heart attack. Not the easiest thing I could manage, with my health. I dragged her back to the sidewalk, I felt so bad about not having an umbrella for her to use. I didn't give her enough credit; I am going to have to explain things soon to her. I hope that she can accept all this about me. I needed to hold her, I can't even begin to describe the feeling of love I felt when I just hugged her. I was about to go for a kiss when Sam showed up needing my help. I wanted to kill my alpha for taking me away from her. The last thing I saw was her watching us run into the woods. Great! Just great, how was I going to explain running into the woods after I told her not to go into them!

"Sam what's going on? Why do you need me?" I asked

"It's Embry, he just changed. We need your help to get him to calm down. He is freaking out still. He seams somewhat comfortable with Jared because he always looked up to him. He looks up to you also for some reason. You guys need to calm him down so we can explain and he can phase back.

"How did he phase I wonder, his father is not even from here." I asked Sam.

"I guess one of our fathers, must of cheated along the way. It's not important now. We need to calm him down before he hurts someone." Sam said, thinking about him going near anyone and blowing our cover.

--- Fast forward a bit—

It took us three whole days to calm him down. I didn't get to see my Joey for the whole weekend. When I got to school I was cornered by my ex girlfriend Tina.

After the first night talking to Joey on her front porch, I went to Tina house and broke up with her. She was still not taking it very well. I guess being in her shoes I could understand. We recently began having sex with each other and I was her first. I told her how special she was to me, and I loved her. I would have told her anything to get into her pants. I felt so bad now about lying to her, now that I know the real meaning of love, the love I felt when I was with Joey.

"Paul" Tina called to me, waving me over to her.

"Hey, what up, what do you need," as I walked up to her, at the end of the school hallway.

"What the hell are you doing with Joey, you told me you need a break with the whole dating scene. Next thing I know the two of you are best friends." I could see the questions in her eyes. "I hope you use her like you used me."

"I would never use her" I could feel myself shaking at the thought.

"Sure, you won't, I know better then that Paul!" Tina said with a slight smile.

"That's right Tina, you don't know me. What did you want me to say to you? " I told her back still trying to hold back the anger that I was feeling inside. Do you expect me to say, I am only using Joey to make you jealous. I am trying to hurt her more then anything. I want to make a new statement of how much of a God I am at school. I want to show that I could get any girl I choose in bed with me. Joey is the best way of showing it. When I get her I would reach a new legacy at this school!"

Tina just laughed at me, and stepped to the side a little. "See Joey, I told you that you were shit!'

As fast as I could, I turned around and saw Joey run down the hallway of school. She only heard half of what I said to Tina. No wonder Tina was laughing, she just set me up, to loose the girl I loved forever.

Next chapter Joey best friend Lily is moving in and there is going to be a lot of emotions and drama. Paul at his finest temper will be back. Please don't forget to review.
