Hello everyone! Here we have the reunion Bella / Paul! Remember to give me your reviews, and as always, enjoy!
Love,
A.
By the time Jared returned, Bella and I find ourselves embraced in our sleep, our hearts beating in unison and our breaths synchronized.
Capítulo 22
If you were a wink, I'd be a nod
If you were a seed, well I'd be a pod
If you were the floor, I'd wanna be the rug
And if you were a kiss, I know I'd be a hug
All I want is you, will you be my bride
Take me by the hand and stand by my side
All I want is you, will you stay with me?
Hold me in your arms and sway me like the sea
All I want is you / Barry Louis Polisar
Paul POV
With Bella hurt and still under the effect of drugs, my rational side was not working very well... I mean, I was actually acting like a fucking lunatic.
Although the human in me partially recognized Jared, the wolf couldn´t stand that another male was in the same room where my imprint was recuperating. Actually, the wolf´s ideal scenario wouldn´t allow another man to approach her in a long, long time, if he had anything to say on the subject.
-"Go away" - I said slowly, trembling as I crawled away from bed deliberately, menacingly.
-"Paul where do you want...? What…?" – Jared asked confused, with the shopping bags still in his hands.
-"Get another room" - I said, still moving toward him – "We're staying tonight and I don´t want to know about you or anyone else. Bella needs me and NO ONE is going to interrupt us!" - I growled.
-"Shit, Paul! I'm not going to hurt B..." - Jared said pissed, oblivious to the danger he was in. He bent down to deposit the bags on the floor and when he got up he looked me in the eyes. Only then did he knew... He could go away or we would have serious problems.
-"Out!" – I roared. Bella moaned and called my name, and I knelt on the bed, next to her. Jared took advantage of my momentary distraction to get a bag with his things and he disappeared.
-"Paul... My Paul..." - Bella moaned dreamily.
-"Bella princess, wake up..." – I said, impatient – "I'm here, you're safe..."
-"Mmmmmh... I love my Paul... Puppy... My puppy... Paul" - She whispered, and all my anger melted like snow in the sun. Bella needed me, and she loved us both. She didn´t hate me for getting her pregnant so young... And she was glad to have a "puppy", or she wouldn´t call him that.
I sat on the carpet with my head next to hers, and I waited for my Bella to come back to me.
oooOooo
Bella POV
God! I was so tired!
I felt Paul's presence with me long before I could wake up, I felt the pain in my chest and my general discomfort diminish, but between the drugs and the stress of the last days I couldn´t shake off the drowsiness, that thick fog of exhaustion that prevented me from returning to the real world... That world where my wolf was waiting for me.
Suddenly I heard a roar and a scream ... "Out!"... My Paul was angry with someone and I needed to calm him down.
-"Paul... My Paul..." - I managed to articulate trying to return. Almost immediately I felt him beside me, leaning his forehead against mine.
-"Bella princess, wake up... I'm here, you're safe..." – He pleaded.
I was getting antsy, I wanted to tell him how much I loved him, that we would have a son, that I could feel it inside me, that we would be so happy, that I would never separate from his side again, but I could only articulate meaningless words.
-"Mmmmmh... I love my Paul... Puppy... My puppy... Paul" - And then the fog consumed me again and I went back to sleep deeply.
oooOooo
When I woke up I felt totally refreshed... More rested than I had felt in years and dying of hunger.
Little by little I opened my eyes in the semi-darkness and I tried to move my limbs: Yes, although my joints ached especially on my elbows and wrists, everything seemed to be in order.
Then I put my hand in my stomach and felt it burning... My puppy was there... And I wanted, no, I needed french fries and pickles.
Beside me, sitting on the floor and with his face resting on my pillow, was sleeping my Paul.
I wanted to kiss him immediately, but my mouth felt terrible and I feared having bad breath. I also needed to pee immediately!
To make little to no noise, I rolled on the bed and I got up without making a sound, swinging on my bare feet.
Paul didn´t even noticed.
I opened the bathroom door and went inside. Once in there I tried to find the light switch and find out... Where were we?
After relieving my bladder I searched for a clue and found a complimentary soap wrapper in the trash... Ramada Inn, Pocatello, Idaho. What the hell are we doing in Idaho? Well, that was a question for later, for now I needed to do something for the horrific state of my hair. I found a bag with my toiletries in the medicine cabinet... Bless you, Paul, you thought of everything!
I founded toothpaste, a toothbrush, and a comb with which I tried to undo the knots of my hair. Once my hair was relatively under control in a loose braid and I had rinsed my mouth several times, I carefully washed my teeth, including my tongue.
Then I drank a lot of water directly from the tap, I smoothed Paul´s shirt that covered me down to my knees, and I opened the bathroom door, leaving the light on so it illuminated the room a little without disturb Paul´s slumber.
Paul was still asleep, all twisted and obviously uncomfortable with his head on my pillow, so I approached him and knelt by his side... With one hand I stroked his cheek delighting in his temperature... Barely higher than mine now... Poor Wolf, he looked as exhausted as I had felt.
Paul asleep looked like a small child, his expression relaxed without lust or anger or passion... Just resting, and his lips pursed in a little pout that I wanted to lick and bite...
-"Paul" - I whispered – "Wake up!" - I kissed his eyelids.
-"Princess..." - He murmured – "Princess!" - He exclaimed, opening his eyes when he realized that it was real, that I was in front of him, and he finally waked up.
-"My Paul... I love you, you know it, right?" - I said approaching him slowly to deposit a languid and sensual kiss on her delicious lips.
-"Bella... Bella..." – He said kissing me, and sitting me on his lap, he hugged me surrounding my body with his.
-"How's the wolf? Angry? I heard you scream" - I asked when I needed to emerge from our kisses to breathe.
-"Jared" - He grunted, frowning – "The asshole came to close… I couldn´t let him come near you... No one can approach you, princess, never again".
-"Will you build me a tower? Like Rapunzel? Or are you going to put me on quarantine?" - I teased trying to make him feel better while stroking his hair.
-"Princess, we have to talk..." - He said looking down nervously.
-"Tell me... Whatever it is you can tell me..." - I said softly, hoping against every possibility that it was not related to Edward the psycho... I didn´t want to deal with that mess that night.
-"When... No... When you were not..." - He started timidly, uncomfortable as I was with the subject of my kidnapping – "I received a call... From Port Angeles´s Hospital..."
-"Oh!" – Was all I could say... Then he knew of my puppy? And if in fact I was wrong and my puppy didn´t exist? No, that's stupid, my puppy was inside me, at least I knew that for sure.
-"They said... Bella, princess... You're pregnant..." - He said looking me in the eyes nervously, like waiting for me to go crazy with rage or something.
-"I know" - I said softly and took his hand to deposit it on my stomach – "We're going to have a puppy" - I added, hoping he would react... At all. And the funny part is, he seemed to be doing the same thing with me – "Paul... I'm happy... I want to be a mom, ever since I felt I could be pregnant... I don´t know how, but something changed in me... I want this Paul... Can you love him too?" - I asked fearfully, knowing that we had known each other for a short time, that our relationship had gone through difficult times, that he had a complex childhood... But I needed him to accept me, pup and all.
-"Can I want it? My own son? What the hell are you talking about Isabella!?" –He growled furiously – "All these days I've been thrashing in pain and shame thinking that I impregnate you while you´re still in high school, and that I fucked up your life, and you ask me if I can love our son?"
-"Eeeemmm... yes?" - I said a little scared that he got mad at me.
-"Bella the only thing that I want is a family... With you... Our son chose a difficult time to arrive, but between us nothing has ever been easy... I love you more than anything, and I love our pup with all my heart... Does that answer your question?" - He asked me putting his hands on each side of my face.
-"Yes Sr.!" - I said and smiled so much that my cheeks hurt. Paul gave me a wonderful smile in return, one that took my breath away, and then kissed me passionately.
We will be parents! Unfortunately my stomach chose that moment to growl and Paul released me immediately.
-"You're hungry" - He said, almost mad at the fact – "What do you want to eat?"
-"French fries and pickles for the puppy..." – I answered immediately – "I'll settle for a cheeseburger and a diet Coke" - I answered.
-"French fries with pickles?" - He asked raising an eyebrow and taking his cell phone out of his pocket.
-"Oh, and it have to be dill pickles, not the other kind... Yuck!" - I replied wrinkling my nose in disgust. My puppy has very specific tastes
-"Jared!... Yes, she finally woke up... I'm sorry about before... Yeah brother... Aha... We need food... Cheeseburgers, fries, a diet coke for Bella and a normal for me, and dill pickles... I don´t know! In the supermarket I suppose...! I don´t give a fuck, get them…! Ok... Ok... Ok...! Yep... Goodbye" - And he cut off the communication – "Your food is coming... I will owe Jared a big one if he gets me the pickles this time of night..."
-"If you want we can go out to eat outside..." - I told him.
-"No fucking way! I'm not ready to share you, not even with Jared, besides in this town I´m not sure there´s something open..."
-"Is it true that you threw him out of the room?" - I asked.
-"Yep…" - He said while happily smelling my hair.
-"It wasn´t necessary" - I said thinking of poor Jared, alone and bored somewhere in the motel.
-"For what I have thought next, princess, it is more than necessary" – He said, darkly in my ear.
I shut my mouth and started to imagine those delicious things he may have planned to do with me.
oooOooo
Half an hour later I found myself enjoying my fries with dill pickles, and once satisfied that craving I could eat my hamburgers in peace. Yep, I said hamburgers, in plural. I ate 2 big ones, and Paul ate 5... But he always eats like a hungry wolf, in that there is nothing strange.
oooOooo
Paul POV
Once I had fed my family, I felt satisfied and full again. Bella accepted her pregnancy, accepted our destiny, and I could not help but thank the gods for that incredible gift.
I approached my Bella who rested in bed, happy and looking calmed and relaxed.
-"Now I have you just for me" - I said, leaning on his side.
-"You always have me only for you" - She replied with a smile.
-"You know what I´m talking about, princess..." - I said in a voice hoarse with desire. I needed her, but I wouldn´t try to do anything while she was recovering from the traumatic experience of her abduction.
I couldn´t be sure, but although I doubted that the nasty leech would have raped her, I was sure that it had forced her to do things my princess didn´t wanted to do, and that was enough.
-"I know... And I need you just for me too Paul... We missed you, you have no idea of how much" – She said speaking in plural – "Your puppy missed you as much as I did..." - She said rolling on her stomach to lie on top of me.
-"Princess... I... We... I don´t want you to feel pressured to do anything that you don´t feel comfortable with, you know that I can wait for you as long as necessary..." – I said with more good intentions than real conviction.
I know, I´m a horny motherfucker, sue me!
-"Maybe you can wait... But I don´t" - She said with a promising smile and the sexiest voice I've ever heard in my life – "I need you Paul... I need you to make love to me..." - She asked me.
-"Bella princess... Are you sure? After what you lived..."
-"After what I lived I need my Paul inside me" – She said with her eyes shining with emotion – "After what I lived I need you to mark me as yours again... After what I lived I need to stink of wolf to cover all that filthy essence of leech that made me vomit over and over again..." – She said vehemently.
-"And the puppy? Aren´t we going to hurt him?" – I asked, weakly.
-"No Paul, the puppy is perfectly fine, I'm not even two months pregnant... He´s smaller than the nail of your index finger..." - She said with laughter in her voice.
-"So tiny?" - I asked, surprised... I guess I never imagined it
-"So tiny" - She answered putting her hand in my pants – "But he's going to grow up, and he's going to be big like his father, you´ll see.
-"Bella..." – I panted.
-"Yes, Paul?" - She said caressing my erection.
-"Prepare yourself!" - I exclaimed, and kissed her with all the passion I could conjure.
