Breaking Dishes Chapter 16

Lina started running around all the dolls, looking at them and pointing to which ones she would want. I smiled and rolled my eyes, but I was happy that she was happy. Sometimes I felt like an older sister, not a mother to her.

"Ray, I think we should go out for a night. By ourselves." I turned my head to the side and smiled lightly at Paul. He was holding me very close to him, and he was being protective right now.

"MOMMY! COME SEE THIS!" I smiled and I started to walk away from Paul, when he pulled me back.

"You and I should have a night to ourselves sometime." I looked back at Paul and I nodded. He smiled and he unwrapped his arms from me, but then he grabbed my hand. I walked over to Lina and she was holding a doll in her hand.

"Look! It's alive!" I smiled and I put the doll back on the shelf. Lina grabbed Paul's hand and she started to drag him over to something else. I rolled my eyes and I sighed, then started to follow them.

"Can I get this? Can I? Can I please? Please!" I walked around the corner and I saw Lina pointing to a stuffed wolf. I smiled widely, as I saw Paul looking at Lina, not sure what to say.

"Uhh...yeah Lina. Sure." She smiled widely and she attacked Paul's legs and then hugged the stuffed wolf to her chest protectively.

"Mommy! Look what daddy said I could have!" I smiled and she danced around for a bit, before sighing.

"Can I go buy clothes?" I smiled and I held out my hand. She grabbed it, then she started pulling me down the hall. I looked back at Paul and smiled at him, before following Catalina.

When we got to the clothes, Catalina started running around looking at all the clothes. I smiled and I started going through the racks of clothes, trying to find things that she would like.

"Hey Raleigh." I looked up and saw Quil standing there. I smiled and stopped going through clothes.

"What are you doing here?" I smiled lightly, then I directed my attention towards Lina.

"I'm taking her shopping. She's probably going to go to pre-school soon." Quil smiled and he stepped towards me and smiled.

"That sounds fun. Are you with anyone?" I felt Paul wrap his arm around my shoulder and he pulled me close to him.

"Yeah she's with me." Quil looked from me to Paul, then he stepped away.

"I'll see you in school Raleigh." I nodded and waved, and once he was gone, I turned around and rolled my eyes at Paul.

"What did I do this time?" I rolled my eyes and I walked away from him. He grabbed my arm and I turned around. Paul stood there with a sad look on his face, and I bit my lip.

"Please Ray. I just want to make you happy, and if I don't you have to tell me what I did wrong." I looked at Paul, and then I looked down.

"He's just my friend and you got all defensive and protective. He wouldn't have hurt me. I just don't understand..." Paul pulled me into a hug, then he kissed the top of my head lightly.

"Ray I'm just protective because I don't want you to be hurt. I love you and I never want you to be hurt again." I smiled against his chest and I closed my eyes.

"Daddy? Can we go home? I'm tired." I pulled away from Paul and saw Lina standing by him. I bent down to her level, and she started to rub her eyes.

"You didn't want to buy anything?" Lina shook her head and she held her arms out for Paul. He picked her up and she ended up curling up in his arms.

"You buy her some stuff. I can carry her, it's no big deal." I smiled at Paul, and I stood up on my tippy toes and gave him a peck on the cheek.

"I won't be long. Promise." Paul smiled and I walked off and started picking up some clothes. Once I was done, I walked over to the cashier and put all of the stuff on. I quickly paid once it was rung through, and I walked past the cashier.

"Sorry, I can take her if you want?" Paul shook his head and then he smiled at me.

"She's really tired. She already fell asleep." I smiled and I offered to take her again, but Paul said no. Once we got to the truck, Paul put her in her car seat, then he walked over to me. I leaned against his truck and smiled up at him. He put both his arms on either side of me and he leaned against me.

"I never thought that being a father would be this fun. Even if she isn't mine, I love her, because she's a part of you." I smiled up at Paul, and I wrapped my arms around his neck, and kissed him.

Embry's POV

"Bella get back NOW." Bella looked at Paul scared and she didn't know what to do. Paul freaked out for two reasons. One, Bella had mentioned something about Raleigh, and two, Bella had punched Paul. Paul was now on the brink of phasing, and Bella was in danger.

"Bella!" Jake jumped over the railing by his house and started running towards Bella got up, and she started running towards Jake. Then she ducked, he jumped over her and phased.

Jake than growled at Paul, who growled at him in return, and they started fighting. It was actually getting pretty good too. Then Paul got really mad and he started to win the fight. Of course then they broke a boat and went rolling down a freaking hill.

"Take Bella back to Emily's place." I sighed and nodded, then walked over to Bella.

"Guess the wolf's out of the bag." Bella stared up at Jared and I dumfounded. I sighed and we walked over to her truck. Bella got into the passenger side, Jared got into the drivers side, and I sat in the back. The whole way that we were driving towards Emily's house, I just knew that Raleigh probably wouldn't like Bella.

"Hey we should go back and check up on Jacob." I rolled my eyes and I jumped out of the back. I heard Jared saying something to me, but I didn't listen. I walked into the house, and I saw Catalina standing on a chair, beside Ray, baking. I sat down at the table, and Jared came in and sat beside me. Bella came in soon, and she stood by the side until Emily offered her a muffin.

"Mommy, are they done?" I looked at Bella and she had the same look that Jake had when he first found out.

"Yes Lina, but they're hot." I looked over at Lina and my day brightened. She just lifted my spirits, all the time. I looked over at Ray and she looked up at Bella, then looked down almost immediately when she saw her disgusted look. I heard them talking about some more stuff, then I heard Paul and Jake come in.

"Sorry." Paul looked over at Ray and she was still looking down. I felt really bad for her.

"Bella I need to talk to you." Bella stood up straight and she followed after Jake.

"Ray are you okay?" She stood up straight and then she walked out of the house, and down the street.

Ray's POV

"Kim, I just..." I tell myself that it doesn't matter. I keep repeating in my head that it doesn't matter what looks people give me. But maybe it does. I mean..." I pulled the pillow that I was holding closer to me. I started sobbing lightly. Kim frowned and she gave me a side hug and let me cry.

"I love her! I do! I love Catalina! But I can't help but wonder what my life would be like if I didn't have her. If that hadn't happened to me. Am I horrible person for asking that?" Kim shook her head and I started to sob again.

"I feel so guilty for thinking about my life without her Kim!" She gave me another hug, and when I calmed down some, she started to talk.

"It is normal to be in one situation and think of another. But I know, we all know, that you wouldn't trade this for anything. You have an amazing boyfriend who would do anything for you AND Catalina. Plus you have one of the sweetest, most adorable little girls I have ever seen. Ever." I nodded and rest my head against her wall.

"You don't have to feel guilty Ray. You're only human. It's natural." I nodded and I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself down.

"Bella doesn't like me. She gave me a disgusted look when Lina called me mommy. You should've seen it Kim. They are all the same. They all judge without getting the full picture. It sucks." Kim gave me a hug, then she put her head on my shoulder.

"She doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. It only matters to people who care about you, and who love you." I nodded and then I sniffled, and sighed. Kim was right. It shouldn't matter to those who love me. But it still hurt nonetheless.

"Come on. Let's go watch some sappy love movie, that's too cliché." I got up slowly, then I followed Kim downstairs and into her living room.

"Hi mom, hi dad." They turned around and smiled at Kim and I. Then her mom saw my tears and she walked over to me and gave me a hug.

"It'll be okay sweetie. Don't listen to them. It doesn't matter what they say. It never will." I nodded and her mom pulled away and smiled at Kim.

"Your father and I are going to Seattle for a couple days. So you have the house to yourself Kim. Oh and Raleigh, don't be afraid to spend the night her for the next couple of days alright?" I nodded and Kim's mom smiled. Then she gave Kim a goodbye kiss and a hug.

"Be good Kim. Have fun girls!" I sat down on the couch and Kim sat down next to me and turned on the TV. She flipped to a channel, then turned up the volume.

"Kim?" Kim turned to look at me and I smiled nervously.

"You're my best friend." Kim smiled widely and she leaned over and gave me a one handed hug.

"You're my best friend too Ray. I'm glad that you came here, because I didn't have a lot of girl friends. Now I have the only one I need."

Paul's POV

Ray-Ray was at Kim's house; they were spending the night together mostly because of what Bella did to Ray. As soon as I found out, I was ready to go to her house and rip her apart. But under strict alpha orders, I couldn't. So I was forced to sit back and do nothing while my beautiful imprint was not only upset, but very upset.

"Dude, they're bonding. Let them bond." I looked over to Embry, and saw him wrestling Lina. Jake was trying to stop them and Jared was encouraging them. But like the good, over-protective father that I had become, I stepped in.

"Get off of her you mo-ron!" I pulled Embry off of Lina and he started to shake. I glared at him, and he shut up and stopped shaking. There were certain things that you just didn't do. One you NEVER went against the Alpha's orders and two, you NEVER messed with an over-protective werewolf father. Or else.

"Daddy, did Embry do something wrong?" I picked up Lina and I set her down on the couch.

"He was being too rough with you Catalina. Your mom would kill e if you were ever hurt." Lina giggled, then she jumped on Jake, taking him by surprise, and tackling him to the floor. She stood on his back and she flexed her 'muscles'. Ray taught her how to do that.
