SM owns the characters the rest is mine

Sorry for the long wait i have no internet at the moment so having to visit family members to use their connections, hopeful i should be reconnected in the next few weeks. I have almost written the whole story so it is just sat on my laptop doing nothing.

Thank you for all the reviews, at the moment i can't reply but i am able to read all of them on my phone.

Trust

I was awoken the next morning by the mattress moving and causing me to roll towards the weight that was causing the mattress to dip.

"Sorry Bella, I need to leave a wolf is calling for the whole pack" Paul whispered before placing a light kiss to my lips.

"Ok, if I am not here when you get back then I will be at Emily's" I groggily replied while my eyes were still shut.

"No, Stay here and wait for me to come back."

"Sure"

I led in bed and listened to the front door open and then close before stretching and then finally getting out of the bed. I wondered into the kitchen, but decided to wait until Paul came back before making breakfast. So I decided to have a shower and then sit in the lounge to wait, so I can see Paul before he gets to the front door.

For an hour I sat and waited for Paul to come back fearing the worse, but hoping that it was just a false alarm by being an old scent. I jumped when the front door burst open and an enraged Paul stormed in slamming the door behind him.

"Paul what happened? Is everybody ok?" I asked, as I stood up and made my way towards him.

"Mind your own business." He snapped back at me before walking into the kitchen and slamming the cupboard doors open and closed.

"Paul, what is going on?" I asked following him into the kitchen.

"Fine I will tell you what is going on, you will get out of my house and never come back. I don't want you anymore; I don't want to be your second choice." Paul yelled at me, I took a step back as he started to shake.

"What do you mean Paul? You are not my second choice, I love you."

"I'm freeing you from the imprint; I won't force you to be here with me anymore." Paul spoke before he ran out the back door and phased.

I stood in the kitchen door way shocked and not sure what to do, when I went over the conversation and Paul telling me he didn't want me anymore I couldn't stop the tears. I turned around and grabbed my bag before running out of the house and to my truck. I sat in the truck, I didn't want to go home and I knew if I went to the beach I was at risk of Victoria attacking me.

I started the truck and drove to Sam and Emily's, wiping the tears that were constantly running down by face. I pulled up outside the front of the house and could see Sam stood on the porch looking concerned, I got out of the truck but before I could take a step towards the house, Sam rushed down the steps and wrapped his arm around my shoulders.

"Bella what is the matter? Where is Paul?" Sam asked.

"He doesn't want me anymore" I managed to whisper out before bursting into tears.

I felt Sam guild me towards the house and into it, Emily walked out of the kitchen and took my hand before leading me to the couch.

"What do you mean, Paul doesn't want you anymore?" Sam asked, kneeling in front of me.

Before I could answer, Jared slammed the front door open and rushed into the room. We looked up at him and watched as he caught his breath before opening his mouth to speak.

"What is up with Paul, he is out by the cliffs pulling up the trees and chanting Bella's name?"

"I don't know what is going on with Paul, Jared stay here while I go to get Paul. The rest of the pack will be here soon for a meeting." Sam ordered before kissing Emily's forehead lightly and walking out the front door.

Jared sat down in the chair and we all sat in silence for a few minutes, Emily still had my hand in hers. In the silence I then remembered about the howl this morning and Paul leaving me in bed.

"Jared what was the howling about this morning?" I asked him, I watched as he stared at Emily before opening his mouth to speak.

He was cut off from saying anything by the front door opening and Jake and Leah walking in, I watched as Jake let go of Leah's hand and walked over to be me and pulled me into a hug.

"Jake can't breathe" I managed to say before he let go of me and wrapped his arm across my shoulder.

"Sorry Bells, I forget that you are not like us." Jake replied putting his head down.

"Just keep those kind of hugs for Leah, ok" I told him and then smiled when he looked up at me and grinned.

"Sure sure, little human hugs from now on."

"Can somebody please tell me what is going on, Paul doesn't want me anymore and everybody is acting different?" I said changing the subject, before sitting down back on the couch with Jake sitting down next to me.

"Bells, the Cullen's are back." Jake answered me before pulling me closer towards him.

"Ok, but why did Paul tell me that he didn't want me anymore? I am so confused."

"Paul has got it into his stupid thick head that now that the leeches are back, you will want to get back with Edward." Leah explained from where she was stood beside Jake.

"He is wrong" I sobbed out, not able to say anything else.

I could hear Jake shushing me before I managed to stop crying, I stood up and pulled away from Jake. I needed time to think and be alone; if Paul didn't want me then I wouldn't force myself in his company by being around all the pack.

Jake stood up to follow me, but we both stopped when Paul and Sam walked in. I automatically looked down to my feet, I was trying to work out if I was angry at Paul for not trusting me or hurt that he never really loved me like he said.

I felt my hand being squeezed and looked up to see it was Jake who was stood next to me; I gave him a small smile and gripped his hand. It was then that I heard a growl and looked across to see that it was coming from Paul.

"Just because you don't want me anymore, it doesn't mean that the rest of the pack can no longer be my friend." I shouted at Paul unable to stop my temper.

"Bella I'm sor." I heard Paul say but I turned around ignoring him.

I watched as Paul walked past me and stormed out the back door, I started to calm down and then felt guilty for ignoring him. I walked towards the back door but was stopped when I felt a hand grip my shoulder.

"Bella let him calm down. He is angry with himself and could phase at any time." Sam said before I shrugged his hand off my shoulder.

"Paul would never hurt me, no matter how angry he is." I told him before walking out the back door.

I looked around the garden and found Paul sat near the edge looking into the forest, I slowly walked over to him and sat down next to him. I felt his warm hand take mine and gripped it adding his other hand so that my hand was in cased in both of his.

"Bella I am so sorry for what I said I didn't mean any of it, I'm scared that now that the Cullen's have returned, you will leave me."

"Paul I won't leave you, for this relationship to work, you need to trust me." I told him, placing my free hand on top of his.

"I do trust you Bella, but I have nothing Bella. No money, I can't ever leave the Reservation. They can offer you everything and give you the freedom that I can never give you, and I know that you still have some feelings for Edward and his family."

"Paul, you know my dad doesn't make much money and my mom made even less when I was growing up. This is my home, I have seen other places and I hated it. I don't have any feelings for Edward anymore, yes he was my first love, but Paul you are my forever love. "I explained to him unable to stop the tears as they rolled down my face.

I felt Paul let go of my hand and pull me into his lap, he wrapped his arms around me and I pushed my head into his chest, placing a hand over his heart.

"There will never be anybody else that I could love as much as you, my heart belongs to you and it always will." I cried out and felt him tighten his arms around.

"I love you too Bella, so much it scares me." Paul admitted before pushing his face into my hair.

We sat in silence holding each other until we had both calmed down, I pulled away first as Paul lifted his head up off my head.

"And the Cullen's are not family to me either, my family are sat in the house behind us. I wouldn't be surprised if they are all eavesdropping on the conversation." I chuckled out.

A few seconds later the whole pack walked out of the house, every single one of them grinning. They walked over to us and sat down next to us making a circle.

"The Cullen's want a meeting in an hour at the treaty line; they have insisted that Bella also comes." Sam said once he had sat down next to Emily.

I felt Paul growl so I took his hand and placed it over my heart.

"This belongs to you, always will so remember that."
