Bella:

I woke up to skilled fingers scratching through my hair and I felt myself purr from the pure pleasure. I cracked open an eye to find Paul fast asleep with his head on my chest so I turned my head slightly to find Jared's smiling face.

"Good morning button"

"Mmm, morning, what time is it?" I grumbled.

"It's around 7am sweetheart, I didn't mean to wake you but I just couldn't help but touch your hair. It smells so good" he smiled pushing his nose towards my hair.

"I don't know how you think I smell good, I feel like I'm in a sauna with you two!"

"Well you'll soon cool down because I have to get up now button" he whispered.

I grabbed his arm circling my waist and whimpered "No, stay here and snuggle"

"I can't sweetheart, the Chief is already pissed we're stealing you. Not turning up to work because I'm in bed with you would be pushing it" he said pressing a chaste kiss to my head.

I sighed and release his hand and watched him head to the door "Um, Jared?"

"Yeah?"

"Could, I, um possibly get…arealkissgoodbye" I asked in an embarrassing rush.

He obviously heard me because he came back and leaned over the bed using his arms for support. He kept his eyes open watching my reaction as he moved closer to me before his lips pressed softly against mine and I felt complete and utter contentment.

"I really gotta go Bells it's already hard enough as it is" he mumbled pulling away.

I let out a sleepy yawn and pulled Paul up so I could cuddle with my head on his shoulder and he molded to the new position immediately, cradling me tightly with his arm and his head resting on mine.

"Okay, Jay Jay" I mumbled drifting off "Love you" and before I could hear myself say the words I fell back in to unconsciousness.

Jared:

My heart was pounding through my chest and I immediately wanted to wake her to hear her say it again but instead I pulled myself away painfully and went to shower before heading back to my place for my clothes.

I got to the kitchen in Sam's house after my shower to Sam and Emily sitting drinking coffee.

"Morning guys" I beamed

"Good morning to you too you happy fucker, what's going on?"

"Bella said she loved me" I replied with elation and I was sure my face would split in two with my smile.

"Congrats sunshine! It's true what they say that the imprint bond speeds up everything" he said clapping me on the back,

"I gotta go guys, I'll see you later" I said heading for the door.

"Hold up Jared!" Emily called after me "Bella knew you'd be going to work before she got up so she told me to give you these and this" she smiled kissing me on the cheek and handing me two lunch bags and a travel cup with coffee made perfectly.

"Two?"

"One for her daddy" she smiled

"Fuck I love that woman" I smile on my way out.

"Yeah, so do I" Sam agreed holding his own travel cup and bag before heading off to the construction company

"Oh, hey Jared?"

"Yeah?"

"Ask the Chief to come over tonight. Her control is amazing and she misses him" he smiled.

I took off towards Forks and pulled up in front of the Chief's house a little while later. I parked my car and slipped in to the passenger seat of the waiting car.

"Morning Chief"

"Mornin' Cameron, how's my girl doing?"

"She's good Chief" I grinned "Sent you this"

I passed him the lunch bag with his name on and watched him open it. The smell was amazing, left over lasagna for us for lunch I thought with a smile. It was then that I saw him pull out a pink heart shaped post-it note which read 'I love you daddy. Be careful out there'. I smiled at the gesture as the Chief just stared at the words before sticking it to the dash beside his police scanner where he could see it.

Curiously I opened my own lunch bag and was met with the same heavenly smell but twice the portion. I also pulled out my own sticky note which read 'Be super careful Jay Jay, I love you…so does Paul :D' then underneath Paul had eloquently added "Don't get shot dickhead, it hurts like a bitch' and I couldn't help but laugh. I stuck mine on the other side of the scanner and surprisingly when Charlie read it he burst out laughing.

"Are those two like that all the time?"

"Absolutely hilarious Chief. If you could make it tonight you could see for yourself" I suggested "She asked me to ask you"

He smiled widely and took off towards the station "I wouldn't miss it for the world. It's been two weeks since I last saw my baby."

"She's doing good Chief, changed in appearance though so don't be too shocked" I warned.

"I don't care if she has two heads as long as I can see her Jared"

"I thought you'd say that she obviously knew you would too because she's making your favorite fish fry for you"

He just chuckled as we passed the blur of people walking through the town. The car was silent just until we got there but I knew Charlie was thinking about something so I didn't bother to ask him anything.

"Um, Jared?"

"Yeah Chief?"

"You know this whole wolf thing?"

"Yeah?"

"It's a genetic trait isn't it? Passed down from a Quileute"

"Yeah, usually"

"I've got a confession to make"

"What's that Chief?"

"Bells isn't mine and Renee's daughter"

"WHAT?!"

"She isn't my daughter" he sobbed

"Who are her parents Chief?"

"I can't say"

"Chief, she is imprinted to two wolves and she could be related to one of us! Who are her parents?!"

"Sue and Harry Clearwater" he whispered and I nearly passed out from shock.

My poor button just can't catch a fucking break!
