Mia woke to the dark room around her, her hand fumbling around the nightstand trying to find her phone. After getting off the phone with Callie she showered and then went to bed for the night. At least she tried to go to sleep, ending up tossing and turning for hours, her stomach in nerves at the fact she agreed to go on a date with Paul. A guy, a very attractive guy at that, who seemed fully into her after talking for a total of maybe five minutes. It didn't happen in real life just movies and yet this is exactly how she wanted it to happen. She wanted nothing more then the fairytale life. Who says she couldn't get that with Paul, if she did end up liking him that is.

Sighing Mia opened her eyes squinting as the brightness of her phone screen blinded her, her phone reading one o clock in the afternoon. Mia decided it was best to get out of bed and gain the courage to actually call Paul and make some plans for today. Pushing the blankets away, Mia scrolled through her contacts looking for "Love of your Life" a smile spreading across her face at the name and rang him.

After the third ring a groggy voice picked up, guilty feeling she probably woke him up and now the last thing he would want was to go out with someone so rude. She stopped herself from overthinking, there was no possible way that she could of known that he was sleeping and he did tell her to call him today. Standing up Mia started to pace around the room waiting for him to answer.

"Hey, It's um Mia. From the beach yesterday?" She said questionably, unsure how to even start this conversation with a stranger.

"Oh hey. Sorry it was a late night. How's your day going so far?" Paul said on the other end, his voice sounding actually excited or at least Mia hoped so.

"Well I woke up maybe five minutes ago so I can't say too bad yet." She told him laughing, watching her feet as she paced around the room.

"I hope not at all since you'll be hanging out with me later. If you still want to that is?"

"Yeah, of course." Mia said nodding her head forgetting that he wouldn't be able to see her nodding.

"Maybe you could pick me up at the beach, say around five? I have to make a couple stops and I'll be around there. Then I can show you where it is." Paul told her coming up with a plan that seemed like it would work besides seeing a big Paul trying to fit in her car was sure to be an interesting sight to see.

Mia let out a soft giggle at the image, her car was the perfect car for her standing only five four she could easily fit. It was her dream car that Callie helped her get almost a year ago, Glad she didn't have to take the car her parents wanted to give her, forced to be in their debt is not someplace she wanted to be. So when Callie offered Mia had to accept, still unsure where Callie got the money for it but she stopped asking questions a long time ago when it came to her. Her mini coop fit just the right amount of stuff that she needed to travel around but not really much more.

"I would love that." Mia told her, her heart skipping at an actual plan being set.

"I'll see you at five then princess." Paul said before hanging up the phone giving her no time to reply to the nickname.

"His going to kill me already and I barley know him." Mia whispered to herself flinging herself back across the bed.

Those last three and half hours seemed to drag out forever, taking another shower and drying her hair and after many attempts to make her hair and make up perfect. And a lengthy conversation with Callie which included lots of wardrobe photos and options, Mia found herself finally heading down to La Push where she met Paul just last night. And boy were her nerves spiking, it wasn't like she had no experience with boys. She had a couple boyfriends back home but none of them were interesting or anyone that she wanted for more then a month. Mia seemed to get bored too easily with most people, the longest relationship was with Callie but that's not going to find her love. Yet Mia was still unsure what she was even doing, even if she liked Paul she still lived far away and even if she moved to a college around here it was still not going to be close by. Any thing they were doing would be cut short and yet Mia found herself still driving towards him.

And quite glad she did so, Paul was sitting on a piece of drift wood, in a white button up shirt hanging over a pair of dark wash blue jeans. Just a few buttons from the top undone to show teases of the chest Mia stared at last night. He looked as nice dressed up as he did dressed in almost nothing and that is not an easy task. It made her giggle a bit seeing as they matched, herself wearing a pair of light blue skinny jeans and a simple white knitted top, a black jacket thrown in the back seat as it looked like it might rain.

"Hey" Paul said grinning as he basically shoved himself into Mia's car, She already pushed the seat all the way back so he had the most space possible but he just barely fit in the too small of a car. " I think next time we may need to take my truck." He said laughing at her. Did she mention how perfect his smile was? Everything about him just seemed to be absolute perfect and it was ridiculous.

"I was thinking about how you would actually fit, it's as funny as I imagined." Mia teased him.

"Ha ha ha. I'm not the one with a tiny matchbox car."

"Hey now, don't be mean to Gage. He has done me well and he is perfect." Mia laughed rubbing her cars dashboard as she pouted at the insult.

"So your a person who names their car are you then? Interesting" Paul said smirking at her

"I don't know if I should be insulted by that comment or not. So tell me the way of food, I haven't ate anything all day." Mia said finding it so easy to joke and talk to him, her nerves seemed to calm down for at least a little bit so she could drive. After Paul gave her some relatively easy directions Mia found herself on the road again driving towards their date.

"So I have never actually been on a first date type thing, I only have gone on dates with people I been dating awhile so I'm not actually sure what I'm doing." Mia spoke fast, embarrassed by admitting it, sure most people her age should have been on plenty of dates good and bad that they would know what they were doing but she was completely clueless and didn't want Paul to have a bad time and regret his decision.

"Lucky for you, I have been on a few and I know just what to do darling. We spend the whole date getting to know each other. I want to know absolutely everything about you that I can." Paul explained, no judgement in his voice which Mia was thankful for.

"There isn't much to learn about me, I'm not that interesting really." She told him shrugging as she pulled into a parking lot of a 'Littlesea Diner' There were a few cars there, some kids looking around nine or ten were playing off to the side of the diner, you could see the people inside were smiling and laughing.

"We will see, Shall we my love?" Paul asked grinning at her as he stepped out of the car meeting her on her side of the car. Lightly placing his hand on her lower back he led them to the front door.

A little bell dinged as they walked through spotting a small table for two in the the back corner they headed over to it, Paul waving at the boy taking orders as they passed. The diner was cute, like something Mia would have seen back home in her town, the mismatched tables and chairs, the light yellow paint on the walls making the inside bright and happy compared to the dark gloomy skies outside. Everything seemed cramped and busy but it was cozy.

"So.." Mia started but trailing off trying to figure out what to ask Paul, unsure how to start a conversation with him. Placing her hands in her lap so she wouldn't fidget in front of him.

"How are you liking La Push or Forks?" Paul asked seemly completely relaxed, his body against the table, his arms relaxed sitting in front of him. His face calm but a small smile playing at his lips.

"It's okay, a little rainy but the beach is nice. It's also a bit smaller then I'm used to." Mia told him

"I thought you were from a small town?" Paul asked her, leaning forward slightly his head tilting a bit trying to figure out if he remembered correctly.

"I do but not this small of a town. Plus if you drive maybe fifteen minutes you get into bigger towns so its not as isolated." Mia explained to him, smiling as the boy Paul waved to handed her a menu.

"Hey Paul." He said grinning at him and giving Mia a smile also. He was huge like Paul was but you could tell he was defiantly younger then Paul was but his muscles almost bulging out of the top he was wearing, his muscles seemingly too toned for a boy his age. His face having softer lines compared to Paul's sharp jawline, his shaggy brown hair almost covering his eyes. And he seemed to have the same tattoo that Paul has on his arm, slightly being able to see it under his shirt.

"Colin, this is Mia. Mia this is my friend Colin." Paul introduced them, Mia gave a small wave and smile at him.

"Nice to see Paul on a nice respectable date" Colin smirked at his friend. "I'll be back in a few to get your order." He said before running off to help a couple close by.

"Do you not go on respectable dates then?" Mia asked him while she looked over the menu, it was simple food which was a good thing, she was far too picky to eat at most places.

"I don't really do the dates thing." Paul confessed, looking somewhat embarrassed as his looked down at his menu avoiding looking her in the eye.

"Ah. Then why did you ask me on a date?" Mia asked, her head tilting as she looked at him trying to figure him out.

"You're special. Different." He said honestly, the way he said it made Mia believe him. Though it could have very easily been a simple line that he used on every girl, Mia liked to believe that maybe it was just for her and no one else. After all she did always want to be that special person in someone life that makes them change their ways for the better. She has clearly seen too many romance movies in her lifetime, life was also much more disappointing but she still couldn't help but hope.

"Well I think I'm going to get a hamburger and french fries. It sounds pretty good." She told him changing subject, Paul looked far to uncomfortable with the current topic.

"They do make really good french fries here. Best around from all the places I go to eat." Paul grinned, thankful for the change.

Mia laughed at him. "I'm guessing you don't have a lot of places to eat around here besides at home."

"Nope we have here, one diner in Forks and this cafe but that really is about it. If you want anything else you have to head out to Seattle basically." Paul shook his head explaining. "A friend of mine, Emily, does all my cooking though."

"No one's cooking stands a chance to Emily's cooking, even my mom admits it and she's the cook here." Colin said walking up to them. "Know what you want?" He asked looking at Mia, knowing Paul got the same thing every time he came in.

"I'll have a Mac and chesse hamburger with french fires and a cola please." Mia ordered handing him the menu to him.

"And a chicken BLT extra fries, veggies and raspberry tea?" Colin asked looking at Paul to double check his order just in case as he grabbed his menu.

"Oh I just love how you take charge like that." Paul smirked up at his friend causing Mia to laugh at the two of them.

"You've certainly been here enough though."

"What can I say, I really hate cooking. I can make eggs though but that's really about it. And sometimes I mess that up." Paul shrugged his shoulder laughing, Emily tried to teach him a while back but after a small fire they decided that Paul was no longer allowed to cook unless it was throwing things in the oven or microwave. Luckily Emily was kind enough to make his meals for him so he could throw it all in a freezer and call it a day.

"Same here. I can't cook but I never really had to learn to cook either. Soon I'll have to if I plan to live on my own during school." Mia told him, giving Colin a thanks when he brought them there sodas.

"What school are you going to? For what?" Paul asked her.

"I wanna be a teacher but I haven't figure out where to go to school. I don't really know where I want to live, I think I have a couple options but they are all over. Plus I'm working in a crunched amount of time cause schools won't be accepting anymore soon." Mia explained to him. Knowing her parents could take care of any lateness but she really didn't want to ask for any favors from them knowing it comes with a favor any time. They would probably want her to go for a different major in order to get her to go to school. And her dream job was not something she was willing to give up.

"And is around here a place that you are looking?" He asked his eyes nervously looking up at her, his body going tense waiting for her answer.

"I liked Seattle when I went through it so I was thinking about it. I have a friend who lives there and she loves it, and her school has the degree I need. So I could end up going there." Mia could see Paul relax a bit in his seat letting out a deep breath that he was holding.

"It isn't so bad out this way, I like it. So tell me about yourself. After all I need to know everything." Paul told her a smirk on his face when he looked at her.

"Everything? That would be a lot of me talking." Mia said giving him a look, no one honestly would want to know that much about her. She had a pretty normal life so far.

"That's the point isn't it. I need to know your last name, your sign, your birthday, what makes your world spin around."

"Well my name is Mia Walker, I'm a Virgo born September 19. I haven't figured out what makes my world spin yet but I have a life time to figure it out yet. What about you Paul?" Mia asked trying to change topics and focus more on Paul.

"Paul Lahote, My birthday is January 13 I have no idea what what my star sign is. And I think it would have to be my family. I didn't have much family growing up but then I gained some and they are pretty alright. Speaking of which." He told her as Colin arrived with the food placing it down in front of them before walking away.

"That's nice to hear, I wanted a big family. I always had family but its more...manipulative. They only come by if they want money from my parents basically then we don't see them again for a while." Mia confessed a bit reluctantly, either people tend to run away from you when they realize you come from money or they start to see you as a bank account and nothing more. The last thing she wanted is Paul to not actually want to be around her as a person.

"That is rude of them. Sounds like people you don't really need in your life then." Paul said taking a huge bite of his sandwich as Mia picked up some fries.

"No not really but it's family so it makes it harder to say no. What's your family like?" Mia turned it back to him.

"I lived in Tacoma, it's another town in Washington." He explained at her confused look, Mia nodded her head to continue. "My dad and I moved here when I was younger. My dad is... a bit of an ass actually. But I made my own family with Sam and Emily and the rest of the pack. There is a huge group of us and so that's my main family. And they really are amazing even if they all can be pain in the asses."

"Do you prefer it here or there then?" She questioned.

"I love it here honestly. It's simple and not so chaotic and busy as a city. I couldn't see myself anywhere else honestly" Paul explained to her. "What's your favorite color?"

"Purple. If you could go anywhere, where would you go?" Mia asked him.

"I wanna go to Las Vegas. What kind of movies are you into?" Paul told her, leaning forward to listen to her, he had a million and one questions he needed to ask her. He wasn't kidding when he said he wanted to know everything.

"Anything Disney really, I have a huge obsession with anything Disney and fairytale. I go to Disney at least twice a year, its amazing. What's your type of music?"

"Anything really, Into rock type music mainly though. What are your hobbies?" Paul asked her giving her a smile

"Reading, lots of netflixing. Erm..what's your favorite animal?" Mia said unsure what to ask him, she was always bad at coming up with questions.

"Wolves, Our tribe is all about the wolves I don't have a choice in that. What's your super power if you had one?"

"I wanna fly. What's your favorite holiday?"

"Halloween. How old are you buttercup?"

"I am eighteen. How old are you?"

"Twenty."

"Are you sure about that?" Mia looked at him unconvinced, there was no way that he was so close to age to her.

"Of course I am. I just happened to look a lot older. We mature faster on the Rez. Much better water."

"I might need some then, get rid of this baby face and look like an adult would be nice. I get asked where my parents are far too much." Mia laughed.

"I think your beautiful, you shouldn't want to change." Paul said causing Mia's cheeks to flush bright red, she tried hiding her face with her hair as she looked at her near empty plate before his hand reached out gently pushing her hair out of her face so she could look up at him.

His body leaning across the table so he was a couple inches away from her face, Mia held her breath as she looked at him. Taking in the way his jaw sloped, the way his eyes stared at her, the way he bite his lower lip, the way he stared at her with pure captivation. He was truly absolutely gorgeous

"You shouldn't hide your face. I like seeing the blushes." Paul told her, his voice quiet as he ran his hand lightly across her cheek.

"Oh?" Mia whispered unsure how to even respond to him right now, She never had a moment like this with anyone else, all she wanted to do was to reach across the table and kiss him. But she didn't have the courage to make the first move, she wanted that confidence but the fear of him regretting her was too much.

"You look cute with some color on your cheeks. You stand out here, in a good way." Paul said backtracking not meaning to insult her.

"I'm sorry we can't all have your skin tone, some of us relate more to Casper." Mia said sticking her tongue out at him.

"Completely overrated." Paul told her resting his hand in her free hand, his touch warm against her skin. Mia could only hope her palms weren't sweaty with nerves, that would certainly be an embarrassing mood ruiner.

"Check" Colin breaking the tension between the two, before actually looking at the couple. "Unless you two need a moment." He awkwardly said seeing how close the two become.

"Hand it over Colin." Paul grumbled pulling away from Mia and placing his hand out for the check. Quickly slipping the amount in he handed it back to Colin then turned his attention back to Mia.

"Ready to go sweetheart?" Paul asked her, smiling as Mia sat there looking slightly confused to what just happened.

"Sure." Mia told him quietly, the mood gone but she couldn't help but think what it would be like to kiss him. Distracted she stumbled over the chair as she went to push it in, Paul laughing at her as her face went pink again.

"Not my fault, you're distracting." She mumbled as she made her way outside, it wasn't really raining quite yet just some raindrops here and there. Something she was real glad for.

"I actually have to head to work, its around the corner here so I can walk." Paul told her when they went to her car

"Oh okay." Mia said embarrassed. Clearly she was overthinking everything. Maybe she read the whole date wrong and he honestly wanted nothing to do with her. Maybe he found her too boring and he just wanted the date to end and was trying to find a way to end it. And he was just using normal lines on her and she just didn't realize.

"I wanna take you out again if I didn't bore you too much." Paul said reaching out to grab her hand, moving so he was standing in front of her.

"You didn't bore me at all. I would like that." Mia said looking up at him.

"I have one more question." Paul told her

"What's that?" Mia asked

"Do you kiss on the first date?" Paul asked her, his free hand sliding up her arm to rest on the side of her face, slightly she leaned into the warmth of his hand as she bit her lower lip

"I think I do." She told him.

Paul leaned further down holding his face just over her so their noses touched giving her a moment to back away if she still wanted, realizing she wasn't going to he closed the distance between the two. His lips touching Mia's, she stood on her tip toes to get close to him. His lips soft against hers, his arms wrapping around her pulling her as close as possible to him. Everywhere around her she could feel heat from Paul, Smell him all around her, a woods smell mixed with whatever spray he was wearing. And she realized that there was no where else she'd rather be than him wrapped around her. Paul pulled away quickly placing a kiss on her forehead as he looked down at her, Mia expression dazed but smiling as she had to crane her neck to look up at him so close.

"Was that a good fairytale kiss?" Paul asked her

"Perfectly Disney." Mia grinned at him.
