Chapter 6
Paul's PoV
I listened to the legend like every year. This time, I had to figure out how I was going to explain this to Callie. I felt her head on my arm, and I could hear her heart beating. I glanced down, to see her eyes glued to Billy Black. He told the legend like he was living during that time period. My heart swelled when I felt Callie put a hand on my leg. I wrapped my arm around her, I knew she was cold. Possibly the only reason why she wants to be so close.
The elder finished the legend, Callie still stayed close to me. I leaned down and kissed her head lightly. She looked up at me, smiling. I smiled back, no clue why but I smiled back. I held her close, and the rest of the pack started to leave.
"Wanna go for a walk?" I asked her.
"Sure, but it'll be more like a carry." She jokes, and smiles.
"That is true, would you?"
"Yes I would."
"Come here little one." I laughed, picking her up bridal style.
"So this is what it's like being tall." She joked, I couldn't help but laugh.
"Let's go." I started walking towards the ocean.
"You're not going to throw me in the water are you?"
"No. You'd freeze before I could fish you out."
"Good, I hate the cold."
"I know." I kept walking towards the water, before my feet stepped into the water I turned to the left. I started walking along the shore edge towards the woods. I wanted to get her deep into the woods, so I could show her the truth. I needed her to believe.
"Are you always this quiet when you're thinking?" Callie asked, breaking my thought.
"Yeah, always quiet. But you're in for a surprise."
"I don't like surprises." She whined.
"I know you don't but this has the be a surprise."
"You're mean."
"I know." I kissed her forehead. "Sit here darling." I put her down on a log, I sat next to her. "This is going to be hard." I added looking into her eyes.
"You're scaring me, please tell me." She put her hand on my cheek.
"You remember the legend?"
"It just happened, so yes."
"Alright, well I don't know how to put this. But uhm…" I paused for a minute, thinking about what to say. "Well, the legend is true. The cold ones are vampires, and the pale faces are what we call normals. People like you."
"You sound crazy." She said quietly.
"I know, but there's more. I'm a quileute, a protector of the pale faces. There is something else, as a quileute I can imprint."
"What's an imprint?" She asked.
"It's like finding your soulmate, the silver thread. Now this is going to sound weirder, when I saw you on TV I knew I had to meet you. It made it so much better, when Seth said you moved in next door to him. When I met you, I… I imprinted on you." I gulped, and looked at the ground. I took my hands off of hers, I didn't move for the longest time. I was afraid of her reaction.
"So, I'm like your soulmate?" Callie asked, I felt her eyes burning into me.
"Yeah." I whispered. I felt her hands creese my arm, I looked at her. "There's more." I added.
"You're a giant wolf. Let me see!" She said, jumping onto me.
"Yeah, you smarty pants. Are you sure?"
"Yes, positively sure. You know the wolf is my favorite animal. Let me see!"
"Alright give me a second." I said, walking into the woods.
Callie's PoV
Paul ran off into the woods, I instantly got cold. It felt like forever, but I heard rustling in front of my. I saw the head of a giant silver colored wolf, I stared at it intensely. Slowly the wolf walked out into full view. The wolf was huge, almost as tall as me. I stood up, I really wanted to walk to it and touch it.
"Paul." I whispered, the wolf came closer and I reached out to touch it's nose. The wolf took a small step back. "Don't be afraid, you look wicked cool." I added with a laugh. The wolf's ears perked up, he walked over towards me and placed his giant head on my lap. I stroked it gently, a satisfied groan came from him.
"You're beautiful." I whispered "Paul change back now." I added, the wolf picked its head up then trotted back into the trees. I was alone again, and getting cold. I stood up, when I saw Paul walking towards me.
"You know most girls might freak when they find out that their boyfriend is a giant wolf." I laughed.
"Yeah probably. Come here, let's get you home." Paul said scooping me up into his arms again, and walking back towards the beach.
I think I fell asleep, because I woke up in my bed. I looked around to see the room dark, and I was in my pj's. I knew my mom or dad helped Paul getting me into the house. But I can't believe I fell asleep. I looked at my phone to see I had a text message
Paul-
You fell asleep on the walk back to the truck. I didn't bother waking up you, your mom changed you into your pj's. I just told her the movie, and the bonfire wore you out. See ya later.
I groaned and put my phone down, I really wish I hadn't fallen asleep. I could have gotten my first kiss… on the freakin lips! I punched the air and kicked my legs everywhere. Stupid me!
