(1 week later, Bella's 15th birthday)

I was finally 15.

Claire was given special permission to spend the day with me since Quill knew how much she wanted to celebrate with me.

She was still grounded for another week though.

Paul was going to let me spend time with Claire alone tonight while he and the pack had a meeting.

Paul spent the whole day with me an it started by waking me up in the morning by singing the "happy birthday" song.

He had fixed and amazing breakfast that looked like it belonged in a magazine and let me choose what to do for the whole day.

"Thank you for today Paul." I say as we are sitting down and eating the five coarse meal he prepared.

"No problem. It's not like every day you turn 15." Paul said smiling at me.

Things between me and him has been awkward since we kissed. I don't know what it means for us, I mean does this mean that we're at the next stage in imprinting and we're dating. Or does it mean that I am just a silly little girl with a little crush and the kiss was just me being stupid.

Every time he touches me for the stupidest things I immediately freeze. Yesterday I went to grab a fork and he grabbed at the same time and when our hands touched I jerked mine back and looked away.

"Claire will be here soon." Paul said starting conversation up.

I nod my head acknowledging him.

"Bella what is wrong?" He asks frustrated with how I am acting towards him.

I open my mouth to speak, but before the words come out Claire and Quill run into the house.

I immediately stand up and give Claire the biggest hug I can give.

"Happy birthday Bella." She says to me.

"Thank you." I reply

"Bye girls." The boys said before they left the house closing the door behind him.

"What happened, are you okay? Quil didn't hurt you did he?" I ask as soon as the door closes.

"No, Quil just yelled at me some and then I kissed him." She replies nonchalantly.

"You what! Tell me everything." I say with my eyes as wide as saucers.

"That is everything. I felt bad for what I did, so I kissed him and he kissed me back. And I think I kinda love him, like 'wanna have your baby someday' type of love." Claire say smiling.

My mouth is wide open.

"I kissed Paul." I whisper.

"What?" She yells.

We were about to go to sleep and his eyes were closed and I wanted to kiss him. When I pulled back he met me halfway in another kiss." I say blushing.

"Wow. So do you like him more than you did?" She asks confused.

"I don't know, thing have been awkward between me and him since then. I don't know if he even sees me as more than a little girl. I love him like a friend and I like him as a boyfriend. I just don't love him like that." I tell her honestly.

She nods her head at me.

"Thing between Quil and I are perfect, we are officially dating now. He just turned 19, and I think on my 15th birthday I want to complete the bond with him." Claire rushed out embarrassed.

"You want to have sex?!" I exclaim.

"It's different now. I really love Quil." She said smiling.

"Good for you." I say wishing that things between Paul and I were easier.
