DISCLAIMER! I DON'T OWN ANYTHING!


Chapter 3

Paul took me to his place and sat me on the couch.

When I woke up, he had a glass of water waiting for me.

I smiled and sat up.

"Sorry, I'm just not used to being so close to supernatural…whatever that was." I said.

Paul snorted.

"Wait, so you're not freaked out?" he asked.

"No, I've seen worse." I said.

Paul raised an eyebrow.

"Bella's dating a vampire, she told me a couple years ago. I just didn't realize that her Edward was him, and now this. I did some research when I was traveling and it seems amazing." I said.

Paul stopped and looked at me in awe.

"Wait, do you know all the legend stuff, even about imprinting?" he asked.

I nodded.

I had read about it.

"So then I guess I should tell you I imprinted on you." He said.

My heart fell.

"Oh, I am so sorry you had to imprint on me." I said.

Paul looked hurt.

He came over to me and hugged me on the couch.

"Why would you be sorry, do you not have enough worth, so what you have cancer and wear a wig, but you can get better with time." He said.

I sighed.

"I haven't told anyone yet, but the treatments are not working, I have a year." I said.

Paul stiffened.

"There has to be a way, my love." He said.

I sighed into him.

I shook myself out of it, and pushed away.

"Wait, so you love me now that you imprinted on me?" I asked.

Paul smiled.

"I can be a friend, brother, lover, whatever you want." He said.

"As long as I'm in your life, then I'm happy." He said.

I sighed.

"10" I said.

"What was that?" asked Paul

"10, it's a number on my bucket list." I said.

Paul sighed and pushed me away to look at him.

"Read me your list. I want to make it come true for you." He said. I smiled.

I knew it by heart, and my heart was hurting, maybe I needed someone to help ease the pain, so I decided to let Paul in.

"Number 1, get a tattoo." I said.

Paul snorted, "You, a tattoo, wild are we?" he asked playfully

I swatted him and laughed.

"If you don't want to hear it then I won't tell you." I said

Paul smiled and got serious again.

"I want to hear it baby girl." He said.

I smiled.

I loved it when he called me that. It felt so….right.

"Number 2, get my ears pierced." I said.

Paul looked flabbergasted.

"You don't have your ears pierced?" he asked.

I smiled.

"No, I never got around to it." I said.

Paul smiled.

"Ok, we will do that." He said.

I smiled.

"Go on, I want to hear the rest." I said.

"Number 3, sleep under the stars." I said.

Paul smiled.

"Number 4, go cliff diving." I said

Paul stopped.

"But you didn't want to go when Jacob tried to make you." He said

I sighed

"I wasn't allowed, but now that I am dying, I plan on doing it." I said.

Paul smiled and I could feel his heart rate pick up at the mention of me dying.

"Number 5, get a makeover." I said.

Paul snorted.

I smacked him.

"Sorry, go ahead." He said.

"Number 6, Feel like I'm floating on air." I said.

Paul stopped

"How would you do that?" he asked.

"It's an old legend that if you find the one you love, when you swim under the full moon, you feel like you are floating on air in each other's arms." I said.

Paul sighed.

"That sounds nice." He said.

I nodded and we were quite a moment.

"Keep going, how many are there?" he asked.

"Five more." I said.

Paul nodded.

"ok." He said.

I smiled

"Number 7, have my first kiss." I said.

Paul stiffened.

I smiled

"Yea, that has not happened yet." I said.

Paul sighed.

I quickly went on with my list.

"Number 8, Go on a date."

"Number 9, Have a girls night."

"Number 10, get a boyfriend"

"Number 11, Get Married"

"Number 12…." I stopped and felt tears come to my eyes, because I realized number 12 would never happen.

Paul felt me stiffen, and rushed to pull me to him and looked me in the eyes.

"What is it baby, talk to me?" he said.

I sniffed and wiped the tears away.

"I just realized number 12 wont happen." I said.

Paul looked at me with sad eyes.

"What's number 12?" he asked.

"Have a child." I said.

Paul stiffened.

"Oh Kara, honey, I'm sorry." He said, crashing me to him.

I smiled and snuggled into his warm skin.

"Well, will you be my girlfriend, that way you can have one of the things on your list done?" he asked.

I smiled, "just for the list?" I asked.

Paul gaped at me….

"No, No, No, that's not what I meant, I want you to be my girlfriend, the imprint is binding me to you, and I am drawn to you my dear, I….I love you." He said.

I stopped.

"How can you love me, you just met me?" I asked

Paul smiled.

"You are my imprint, and you are my world." He said.

I smiled.

Paul leaned into me, and our lips met.

Sparks flew, and suddenly, I was on his lap, grasping at him.

We continued to kiss like that for what seemed like forever when we heard a cough.

We quickly broke away to see Jacob and Bella standing in the doorway.

"Glad to see you are taking care of my cousin, Paul." She said.

I smiled.

"It's ok Bella, we talked, and we're kinda a thing now." I said.

Bella nodded.

"Ok, but if you ever want to talk about it without the big bad wolf, I'm here." She said.

I laughed.

Paul growled.

"I'm heading home, you ready to go now?" she asked.

I nodded.

When we got home that night, I told Charlie and Bella the news.

They were sad, and hugged me, but I wouldn't have wished to be anywhere else.

I called my parents and told them, but there was no answer.

I guess they didn't get off the flight yet.

I turned to the T.V. to see the news on.

Charlie looked at me with sad eyes.

Pictures of people flashed on the screen, and I saw my parents.

"WHAT!" I yelled.

Suddenly, Paul burst through the door,

"What happened?" he asked.

I looked to Bella who laughed.

"Charlie knows, he accidentally saw Jake phase." She said.

"Oh," I said

Charlie looked at us and nodded.

"You hurt her, you dead. I know this cause I have a gun." He said.

Paul nodded.

I looked at Paul.

"Oh Paul it's horrible, look." I said pointing to the T.V.

My parent's pictures flashed on the screen.

Deceased was printed on the photo.

The flight had gone down and there were no survivors.

Charlie had been named my guardian when I was little so I didn't have to worry about relocating.

I felt the tears build up, and I felt the wind go out of me.

I started to fall, and blackness took over.

"Kara!" yelled Paul as I slipped into oblivion.
