Bella was slightly jostled, resulting in her awakening. Paul was trying to get out of bed.

"No..." She moaned, grabbing his hand.

Paul kissed her softly on the forehead. "I have to go, baby. I have patrol in thirty minutes."

Bella pouted. "Can't you just miss it?"

Paul chuckled. "I can if I want my ass kicked." He pried her hand from his.

"Are you going to be back in time to get ready for the family dinner thing tonight?" Bella asked, silently dreading the reunion.

Bella heard him groan from the bathroom. "Do I really have to go? Can't you just take Embry with you and pretend it's me?"

"No!" Bella wailed, sitting up.

"Sweetheart, I'm not really the guy your dad would want to meet. I'm the guy who needs to hide from your dad."

"Maybe, but you still imprinted on me and knocked me up." Bella pointed out.

Paul walked out of the bathroom wearing cut-off jeans. "I knew this imprint thing would come back to bite me in the ass." He sighed, teasingly. Bella smirked. "Yeah, I guess I'll be back in time."

"Good!" One-zero, point goes to the imprintee!

"I don't know what I'm going to say to your father anyway. I've never had to do this before."

"Just be yourself, honey."

"Oh yeah, okay." Paul agreed sarcastically. "'Hello, Mr. Swan, I'm the man who sort of took advantage of your drunken little girl. The result of that is we're going to have twins now. Did I forget to mention I'm half werewolf? Oh yeah, and wolf pack brother is also your business rival.'" He mocked.

Bella burst out laughing. "I will give you the best sex of your life if you say that to him!" Bella challenged.

He bent down and gave her a kiss. "Don't tempt me. I'll be back around noon." And just like that, Paul left the bedroom. Bella heard the front door shut closed a minute later.

Bella looked over at the clock and noticed it read six in the morning. She lied back down in bed, feeling lonely without her soul mate lying next to her.

Bella thought about how the evening will go. She's hoping that, by the end, there won't be a cop trying to break down the front door.

After lounging in the bed for a bit, and knowing well that she can't go back to sleep, Bella got up and took a shower. Afterwards, she got dressed and went into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, took out some yogurt and fruit that Emily had given her and ate it. She opened up her laptop, logged onto her Facebook and scrolled through her newsfeed. Bella liked Facebook, only because she knows what's happening with her friends and family without actually having to talk to them.

Ten minutes later, she was playing a game when she heard the back door open. Embry, Ben and some random guy joined her at the table.

"What are you doing, gummy bear?" Embry asked, smiling at her.

"Why do you call her that?" The random stranger asked.

"Because she smells like a white gummy bear."

Ben breathed in deeply. "Hey, she actually does."

Bella frowned. "Why are you guys here?"

"What, are you not happy to see us?" Embry jutted his lower lip out, making Bella smile slightly.

"Right now? No."

Embry frowned. "That hurt."

Ben looked over Bella's shoulder. "Hey, she's playing a Facebook game."

"Oh god, you're one of them." Embry accused, in mocked horror.

"What? I like this game."

The new guy looked over her shoulder. "Hey, I play that game. You should add me." Embry and Ben stared at him judgmentally. "Don't look at me like that! I happen to think that's a really fun game.

"What's your name? I haven't met you yet." Bella remarked, closing the laptop.

"I'm Wes and you're Bella, right?"

"Yeah. Nice to meet you."

"You too." Wes smiled.

"So, I'm guessing you guys want some food, huh? Does cheese on toast and soup sound okay?" They all smiled widely.

The guys helped set the table and sat down with anticipation. When Bella was nearly finished, she heard Paul walk through the door. He walked over to Bella and wrapped his arms around her, resting his hand on her ever-growing baby bump. Bella turned her head and kissed him lightly. He groaned and pulled her closer to him. They were interrupted by someone clearing their throat, and Paul jumped in surprise.

"Why the hell are you fuckers here?" Paul hissed, irritated.

"Why do people keep asking us that question?" Embry asked, looking at Wes and Ben.

"Because we kind of invite ourselves over and come in without knocking." Ben muttered under his breath.

"But we're family. When is the last time any of us actually knocked anyway?" Wes laughed.

"I think Paul's still mad about what we so rudely interrupted last night, Ben." Embry whispered quite loudly.

"Well, it depends. Did you cockblock him?" Ben asked, rolling his eyes. He already knew.

Wes let out a snort. "Again?"

"It was hilarious!" Ben commented.

"You dumbasses! You do know we are right here, right?" Bella cursed.

"Sorry." They all said in unison.

"We wanted to visit Bells, Paul." Ben explained.

"Oh yeah, and Jared' looking for you. Something about plan R and T?"

When Wes said that, Paul's eyes widened. He secretly shot all of them death glares, as if he was telling them all to shut the fuck up.

"What plans?" Bella asked.

"It's nothing. He wanted to do something nice for Kim before she gave birth. That's all." Ben said a little too quickly. Paul shook his head slightly.

Oh, there is definitely something going on...Bella concluded, pushing the subject away for later.

After lunch, the guys left. Paul followed them out the door and whispered something to them, unfortunately for Bella, she couldn't make out the words. She heard Jared's name being mentioned, but nothing else. It would be fantastic if she had wolf hearing at that moment.

Afterwards, Paul got ready for the dinner at Bella's family's house that night. While Paul was in the shower and getting ready, Bella decided it was the perfect time to do some snooping around. She went to his office, took his laptop and went through his internet history, trying to find something out of the ordinary. But she found nothing.

Bella scanned all the websites and they all seemed perfectly normal. Most of the websites he'd been to was for real-estate and house hunting. There was one link that kept repeating itself over and over as Bella scrolled through the list; it was a link to a nice looking house. It had three bedrooms, a big porch and a flowery garden. Overall, it looked like a single family home.

Noticing that the shower was no longer running, she shut the laptop off and placed it back where she found it.

When Paul finished dressing up and preparing himself, Bella was already sitting in the living, looking very innocent. He came into the living room wearing a black polo shirt and black jeans. Bella didn't know if it was the hormones or whatever, but he looked extremely hot. She would have him there and now if she could.

Bella stood up and threw her arms around his neck.

"You clean up good." She commented.

He smirked and leaned in to kiss her. They stood there for a while and finally, he pulled away. He looked over his shoulder and over to the clock where it read just a little past two. They had a four hour car ride to Bella's dad's. They had to get going soon and on the highway to hell.

An hour into the car ride, the most irritating song Bella has ever heard came on. Rolling her eyes, she turned it off. Paul growled.

"What?" Bella asked.

"You don't touch a man's radio, ever. What's wrong with you?" He hissed at her.

"Nothing's wrong with me." Bella shrugged. "I hate that song."

"I don't care, don't touch my radio!" Paul whined. Bella glared at him and moved her hand to turn the radio on again, to change the station. "Woman, I meant it!"

"Don't call me 'woman'. And what are you going to do about it? You're driving."

"That didn't stop me the last time someone tried to touch my radio. Just ask Seth what happened when he touched it."

"Fine, I will." Bella sneered, whipping out her cell phone and texted Seth.

What happens if you touch Paul's radio?
-Bella

You didn't touch it, did you?
-Seth

Not yet. He told me to ask you.
-Bella

Just don't touch it. My leg's still
kind of fucked up.
-Seth

Bella sighed in defeat.

"Wise move, sweetie." Paul grinned.

"Wait," Bella began. "I'm the imprintee, and you said if I wanted something, I got it."

"Touching my radio is not one of them." Paul replied.

An hour went by before they started talking about the twins.

"Do you have any ideas for names yet?" Paul asked.

"A few." Bella said.

"Shoot." Paul invited.

"For boys, maybe Alexander or Brayden. For girls, I like Harper and Amelia."

"I like those names. We can call the boys Alex and Bray for short. The girls names are pretty, maybe Amy's short for Amelia or something. If they're going to look like you, they'll need beautiful names."

Bella smiled widely at how excited Paul seemed.

The rest of the car ride was good. At around six, they pulled up in front of Bella's dad's house. Bella stared up at the house she grew up in. She had good times there, but the bad times definitely overrule all of the good times by a mile.

Paul sensed Bella's uneasiness and put his hand on her lap.

"Everything will be fine. I won't let anything happen to you." He promised.

Bella gazed into his eyes. He really did love her, but she hasn't told him her feelings yet. To be honest, she's still getting used to everything. That might take a while.

Bella rested her head on his shoulder. He tilted her chin upwards and kissed her. Quickly, the kissed deepened. Paul unbuckled Bella and laid her down on the seat. Bella felt Paul's hand squirm up her shirt and touch her breast. Bella felt herself cling to him like proton and electron. They moaned into each other's mouth.

They were interrupted by someone tapping on the window.

"Really?" It was Angela's muffled voice. "You have to do this now? Isn't this how you got yourself into this situation in the first place?"

"Hi Angela..." Paul and Bella said in unison. Angela rolled her eyes and opened the truck door.

"Hi. Come on, Paul, get off of her before the twins run out of air."

"Why does everyone cockblock me?" Paul muttered under his breath.

They got out of the car and Angela smothered Bella in a huge hug.

"So, have you been in there yet?" Bella asked, nodding into the house. She pulled away from Angela.

"No, I literally just got here."

"Great...we're walking into hell."

Sighing, all of them walked up to the front door together. Bella and Paul held hands. It's a good thing he's half wolf because she would have probably crushed his hand by now. Angela knocked on the door and thankfully, it was their mom who answered the door. She wore a huge smile on her face.

"My girls are here!" She pulled her daughters in for a hug. She moved back and examined Bella's baby bump. "Oh my gosh, you have the cutest little baby bump I've ever seen. I still can't believe you're going to be a mother." Most of the time, Bella step-mother acted a lot like a teenager.

"Same here." Bella said. "What kind of mood is Dad in tonight?"

Bella's step-mom shook her head. "Not the best. Uley Counteracting took another job from him today." Bella could hear Paul laughing. She elbowed him.

"So, uh," Bella began. "this is the father of my babies."

Bella's step-mother stared up at Paul and her mouth parted slightly. She licked her bottom lip.

Oh my god, mom, ew. Bella thought.

"Mom! Jesus!" Angela yelled, pushing her mom into the house, trying to stop her mom from eye fucking Paul. "Let's go."

"Oh yes, come in." She said. "I'm Mary, by the way." She told Paul.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Paul Lahote."

They walked into the living room where Bella dad sat. He was reading the newspaper. He heard them walk in and set the paper aside.

"Hi, dad." Bella greeted, shyly.

He got up and walked over to Angela and Bella, giving them a weak hug.

"Hey, Bells. How was the ride up here?" He asked, uninterested.

"Fine. How are you?" Bella returned.

"I would be better if that Uley boy stopped taking all the damn jobs from me." He hissed.

"Sorry to hear that. Dad, this is Paul Lahote." Bella said, turning towards her lover.

"Lahote? I think I've heard that name somewhere before." Charlie said, looking at Paul.

"Uh, yeah. I do some jobs with Sam Uley." Paul explained, trying to be careful with his words.

Bella could already tell that her father didn't like this. Bella stared at Angela, silently pleading for her to do something.

"Hey, Charlie, you should see Bella's baby bump, it's adorable!" Angela squealed. Bella gave her a dirty look. Angela practically threw gas into a wild fire.

"Yes, it's so cute!" Mary added.

"Oh yes, I heard I was going to be a grandfather." Charlie glared at Paul. "I'm guessing you're here because you're going to father her child?"

Bella glanced at Paul and felt the slightest trembled vibrate through her body. Bella, however, wasn't trying to keep calm.

"Dad!"

"What, I don't see Mike here." Charlie retorted. "He is the only other man here, so it has to be him. He is the real father, am I right? I deserve to know who impregnated you."

"Yes, you do, but please be nice." Bella begged.

"Be nice?! You know what would have been nice, Bella? If I hadn't heard that you were having a baby via Facebook. It wasn't even you who told be!" Charlie darted his eyes towards Angela.

"Maybe if you weren't such a big asshole all the time I would have come to you face to face and told you!"

"You do not yell at me in my own home!"

Paul, who was in no mood to be polite, was quietly boiling with anger. "I'm going to have to ask you not to talk to her like that."

"You don't have the right to tell me how I talk to my own daughter."

"She's carrying my kids, so I think I do." Paul spat through his teeth.

Bella saw Mary and Angela backing away from the two men. Bella stayed put, only a foot away from Paul. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see Angela clutch her cell phone, as if she were going to break it.

"Now, both of you stop this!" Mary shouted. "We are here to have a family dinner and to let Bella and Paul know that we actually are happy that they are going to have babies. Right, Charlie?"

Bella eyes narrowed towards her father. He nodded.

As soon as the mood shifted, Mary told them to sit down at the table. Oddly, they were all civil and started talking about Mary's new car. Angela told them she was still looking for a job. Mary kept bringing up the babies. Throughout all of this, Bella kept sneaking glances towards her dad, who looked like someone was holding a gun to his head.

When dinner was over, he asked Bella to talk to him alone in his office. Bella looked at Paul one last time and he half-smiled. Bella followed her dad into the office, and he shut the door behind her,

Bella didn't say anything at first.

"Bella, what the hell are you thinking?" He sighed.

"What do you mean?" Bella inquired.

"You had a one night stand, got pregnant and live with a guy you don't even know!" He said, unnaturally calm.

Bella nodded, understanding his reasoning.

"I admit that having a one night stand was really dumb, but I'm getting three great things out of it, too. I know I don't really know Paul that well, but I know well enough that he'd never hurt me or the twins."

Charlie looked down. "Bella, I know you're not a dumb, little girl. Jesus, you had a full scholarship to Brown. I don't understand why you didn't take it."

"Because it wasn't my dream to go there!" Bella wailed. "It was yours. I knew you only wanted me there so that I'd meet a rich guy and get married."

"It would have been a whole lot better than how your life is right now." Her dad suddenly shouted.

Ah, and there he is. Bella thought sourly.

"Well, I'm sorry that I disappointed you but I love my life and how it turned out."

"Me too, Bella." He snorted sarcastically. He shook his head, as if he couldn't believe that this is happening. "I'm sorry you love your stupid, pathetic, slutty life."

Right at that moment, Bella felt emotional pain. Charlie had never said anything that harsh in her entire life.

"How dare you call me that." Bella's voice was calm, but menacing. "And you're calling me the slut? Does Mary know how you really spend your Saturdays? Using the 'I'm going to a meeting.' excuse?"

"Don't talk to me like that!" He scolded her.

"You're expecting me to accept the fact that you called me a slut?" Bella queried.

Bella felt Paul's presence and looked over her shoulder to see him glaring at her father. She was too busy shouting at her father to hear the door open.

"Bella, let's go before you strain yourself." Paul suggested.

"Yeah, Bella." Charlie agreed. "Go live a fantastic life with this guy. He'll leave you for the next easy slut he finds. I hope he uses something next time to prevent another accident."

"Oh no you fucking didn't." Paul blurted. "I've been holding back my anger all night because I love Bella and I'm only doing this for her sake. But I'm not going to do that if I'm going to be treated like crap from a jackass. You can call me anything you want, but don't you ever call your own daughter something so cruel. She is the sweetest, smartest, most beautiful girl that could walk this planet and I, for one, am really happy that she was there in the bar that night because if she wasn't, I would have never gotten to know her. You're such a fucking idiot - trying to make her into something she's not. You, out of everybody in the world, should love her no matter what." At this point, Paul was visibly shaking and Charlie looked extremely vulnerable.

Bella tugged on Paul's hand. She had to get him out of the house before he ended up killing her father.

"Paul, please, let's go now." Paul looked into Bella's eyes, which were glistening with unshed tears.

Paul took her hand and let her lead him out of the door.

"Yeah, Bella, walk out!" Charlie shouted, his voice slightly trembling. "Walk out just like your mother did. I always knew you would end up just like her. I bet you will walk out on your kids, too!"

That right there was the last nail on the coffin. The next thing Bella knew, Paul had left her in the middle of the hallway and knocked her father out. Swiftly, he came back and took her hand, walking out of the house together. Bella looked over her shoulder, glancing at Mary and Angela apologetically and then they left.

For the car ride home, they didn't say a word. All Bella could think about was her dad. Why does he seem to hate her so much?

As soon as they pulled up in front of their own house, Paul got out first and helped Bella out of the truck. Once she was out, he cupped her face and locked eyes with her.

"Don't believe anything that man said to you, okay, baby?"

Bella nodded.

"I need to talk to Jared and Sam quickly. Why don't you go inside and take a long shower until I get back. Then we can watch a movie together." He kissed her quickly and walked off. Bella knew he was still mad over what had happened, and he will be for a long time.

Bella walked into the house and into the twins' room. Falling to the ground and crying, she curled up and hid her face. Maybe her dad was right...maybe she did screw up her life. Moving in with Paul might not have been the right thing to do. How could she bring her babies into this world if she couldn't even deal with it herself? Her kids are destine to be wolves and if Paul had never met her, he wouldn't have to put up with all of this.

Faintly, she heard someone calling her name. She looked at the doorway and there stood Embry. He rushed to her side and held her in his arms.

"What's going on, Bella? Why are you crying?"

"Why are you here?" She asked, her voice cracking.

"You know, I'm getting tired of hearing that." He joked. Bella wiped her face, but that only caused more tears to run down her face. "I wanted to see if you were okay. I was at Sam's with the guys when Paul came in, looking like he was on a war path. He took down an old oak tree on his way there."

"Is Paul okay?"

"Paul's fine. All of us are more worried about you."

"How can I be? I ruined Paul's life and my own."

"You didn't fuck up your life, Bella. It might not be what you had wanted, but look at it like this; you never really had a family that you were close with, but now you have one massive family that would be their lives on the line for you in a heartbeat. I bet you always wanted kids, and look, now you're having two! Yeah, maybe they will be wolves on day but that's a great thing once you think about it. They will never get sick, they'll always love and protect you and plus, it's like having a couple of pets!"

Bella giggled. Embry smiled slightly.

"Don't worry about Paul. He messes up his own life a lot sometimes but he does love you, otherwise he wouldn't be this upset over what happened tonight."

Embry was right. Bella didn't mess up. She did get everything she wanted: a good guy, kids and a great family.

For a while, Embry and Bella stayed in the children's room and talked for a while. He made Bella smile through the tears but even though the words were comforting and true, she worried about Paul.

After a few minutes of tears, Embry led Bella to Sam's and outside stood Paul, frowning and looking upset. Without hesitation, Bella ran to him and he looked up, slightly worried. Bella wrapped her arms around his neck and without hesitation, spilt two words from her lips that Paul had been longing to hear.

"I accept."
