For those of you who haven't figured it out, this is after Edward has left the first time, except Bella was with the wolves so Alice never saw it, and Edward is NEVER coming back...well, maybe for a little bit of drama in a future chapter, I don't know, I haven't made up my mind yet.

Since I already have so many reviews, I'm going to go ahead and give the public another chapter.

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the twilight saga characters, Stephanie Meyers does, but I do own my fantasies that Paul, Jacob, Embry, or Quil were real and in love with me.

Now, on with the story!

Paul's POV

What the hell just happened here? Why would I even try to apologize to that ungrateful little bitch anyways? I was trying to figure out what had happened but inside I knew exactly what it was. The imprint was trying. The imprint didn't want her to be mad at me. Fuck the imprint. I was about to fight this shit with everything I had. Sam and Jared had never tried. They just gave up and went with it. Well not me, if it was the last thing I did, I wasn't going to let that brunette goddess get to me. Stop thinking like that you Idiot. I yelled at myself. I began to wonder just how long I would be able to fight it. She obviously didn't want me either so maybe it wouldn't be that hard. And then I remembered what they said at all of the tribal meetings about imprinting. About the imprint being whatever the imprintee needed her wolf to be. I could do that, I could at least try to be her friend. But why HER! Of all of the people in the entire world I have to imprint on the fucking leech lover!

I picked up a rock throwing it as far into the ocean as I possibly could. It flew out of sight and I thought I saw it splash into the water a couple of miles off of the cost. It just figured. I would never hear the end of this from the guys. Paul the badass, turned puppy by a blood suckers ex girlfriend. They would say it over and over and over again. For weeks that's all I would hear. Fuck her, fuck them, fuck the imprint, just....FUCK!

I turned around heading back to the trail, deciding to go find her and apologize, again, for the way I had acted earlier. When I thought about it, my mind wandered to the first time I really saw her. standing there in only her bikini bottoms staring at me just as much as I was staring at her. Her breasts moved up and down softly as she breathed. She reminded me of a Quileute goddess. Her skin was the one thing about her that didn't match up. She had supposedly moved here from Arizona and yet she was paler than even the bloodsuckers. I shook my head and snapped myself out of it as I heard someone walking up behind me. I inhaled and thanks to my wolf senses I could smell her perfectly. She smelled of strawberries. I personally loved it. I would definitely not be telling HER that fact though. I turned around.

"Geez, are you slow...I've had time to get all the way back up and dive again and I'm still going to beat you to the top a third time." she sniped at me. Once again I had to calm myself down. Sam and Jared had both imprinted on calm shy girls. Of course I would have to be the one that imprinted on the girl that had just as bad of a temper as I did. But then again that's what imprinting was about, finding your other half, the one who completes you, the one who is everything you need just as she is. In thinking about this I had completely even forgotten to come up with some kind of remark to get back at her. By the time I could come up with anything it would have seemed stupid. The look on my face when she had said it was enough to tell her I was dumbfounded. She was a few feet in front of me by the time I snapped out of it and I couldn't help but stare at her as she walked away. The way her hips swayed from side to side as she walked up hill was mesmerizing. And her butt, so perfectly round as though the gods themselves had spent hours shaping it. It was then that I realized she had stopped and whipped her head around watching me stare at her ass.

"Like what you see?" She asked me, a smirk on her face, like she knew that her question didn't even need an answer. She knew it. And if she didn't the tent that was pitched in my shorts sure as hell gave me away. Damn it, how do I get out of this one.

"No, but I had to think of a hot chick to get my mind off of that huge ass of yours." I knew it was a mistake as soon as I heard the words escape my lips. She had fully turned around and if her eyes could have flames in them right now, they would. She started to stomp over to me and I knew I was in for some trouble. I also knew that I would take whatever punishment she gave me because that's all I could seem to do right now. Anything she wanted...If she wanted me to wear a bright pink collar so she could lead me around on a leash for all the world to see, I would probably agree to it right now. Before I knew it she was in my face, those furious eye's looking deep into mine.

"I don't know who the fuck you think you are," She started, poking me every two seconds for emphasis, "But I'm not the kind of girl that you're used to around here. I'm not afraid of you...." I drifted out of what she was saying as I realized how beautiful she looked in this exact moment. Fire in her eyes, standing there in nothing but a triangle bikini, hair wet from the ocean, sun glistening off the beads of water trailing down her entire body. The imprint stories were right, she was everything I needed. But I was not about to let her get to me. This little girl was about to learn a lesson. I started listening to what she was saying again. "So don't think for one second that you have me fooled!"

"I don't want you to be fooled. I'm going to show you just exactly what kind of man I am." I leaned forward pushing her against the closest tree. Grabbing her hands I raised them above her head and leaned down to whisper in her ear. "I know you're not like those other girls, but just to let you know, I ALWAYS get what I want." My head moved to the side as I pushed my lips against hers. It was wonderful, It was passionate, it was everything I could ever dream of. I pushed my entire body against hers, letting her hands go so that my hands could travel down to her waist. As I pulled her even closer to me my tongue traced her bottom lip. It was that, and only that, which snapped her out of it. She shoved me away and the fire was back in her eyes. Damn that was hot!

"If you ever do that again, you won't have any lips to try it a third time, I promise you that." She said to me, poking me for emphasis once more.

"Ahhh, again with the poking, must you do that? It's really not wise to tease me." I smirked at her with a look of pure lust. I wanted her. More than that, the wolf wanted her. In time, I told myself. I knew I was just getting started and something told me she knew it too. She wanted me just as badly as I wanted her. "Sometimes, I poke back."

"And just what *poke* are you *poke* going to do about it?" She looked at me matter of factly. A look of terror crossed her eyes, as if she realized what she had done, just a fraction too late. She turned around and walked away, but not before turning her head to look at me and wink."See you later...Paul."

Bella's POV

I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT JERK KISSED ME! Well I guess he's just going to have to learn his lesson the hard way. No one messes with Isabella Marie Swan and gets away with it. I continued up the path to get back to Jake, walking just a little bit faster than I had been before the...incident. I was NOT telling Jake about that. We were going home NOW. Of course then he would ask me what happened but I'm sure I could distract him with the idea of lunch. I reached Jake to see him smirking at me. Jake smirking was never a good thing. He couldn't have seen that...A thought of horror passed my mind...Could he?

"You ready to go Jake?" I asked him looking for my clothes. Relief and fear washed over me when I truly realized why Jake was smirking. Relief because I realized he had not in fact seen the episode just a few minutes earlier. Fear because I realized the smirk was because he had hidden my clothes somewhere. And I had about a snowballs chance in hell of finding them with how long it had taken me to get back up from the cliff. He could have hidden them anywhere, and I didn't have a change of clothes in my truck because once again I had forgotten to do laundry yesterday. "Black, you are so dead!"

"What did the pup do now?" The husky voice stopped me dead in my tracks. It was him...Of all of the people that could have walked up on me in my moment of embarrassment, it had to be HIM.

"If I tell you, then you have to help me." He shrugged in a way that told me he was fine with that condition. "Jacob," I ground out through my teeth, "has hidden my clothes so that I have nothing to wear but this bikini. I need help finding my clothes." I paused waiting for him to respond when I realized that a smile was spreading across his lips. He was soon bent over laughing so hard that I knew it was a mistake to tell him. "FINE! don't help me!"

"No, *snicker* I'm sorry *snicker* I'll help you find them." Paul was finally able to stand up straight and not laugh. "What do they look like?"

"There's a pair of black leather hiking boots, a leather skirt and a purple halter top. " I told him intrigued that he had actually agreed to help, but figuring he probably had an agenda of his own even in a situation like this. His head leaned up and I closed my eyes. "PLEASE tell me they are not in a tree."

"Okay, I won't." He acted like he was locking his lips and throwing away the key. I looked up and saw my clothes and groaned. "I'll get them down...for a price."

"What do you want?" I asked him, one eye brow raised knowing it would be something absolutely ridiculous. A smirk crossed his face.

"I want you to go to dinner with me, just one time, if you don't have a good time, I will never bother you again."

"That's it?"

"That's it." He looked at me as I thought about his request. What the hell, one date couldn't be that bad.... "Fine, ONE date."

Before I even finished he had scaled the tree and gotten my clothes down. Handing them to me he winked at me and smile that smirk that was starting to make me weak at the knees. I tried to shake it off as he left. Climbing into the truck I unlocked the door for Jake to climb in the passenger side and once he was in I drove off.

Paul's POV

Before I knew it I was running further into the woods shedding my clothes as I ran. Me, Paul Meraz, had gotten Bella Swan, to agree to go out to dinner with me. I had no clue what her friend Jake had been planning, the opportunity just presented itself so easily, like it had been fate. And who am I to mess with fate? I was in wolf form before I realized it and Sam, Embry, and Jared's thoughts all joined mine. I replayed everything that happened after she had exposed herself unwillingly. I even ran through what happened when I kissed her.

Congratulations on imprinting, said Sam

Dude I'm gonna need a cold shower after this one! cried Embry

So when are you gonna tell her? asked Jared.

I quickly phased back. I hadn't thought about that yet. I mean we were barely getting along and now I was expected to tell her 'oh by the way, I grow three times, this size, sprout fur and look like a wolf sometimes'. Life was not supposed to be this complicated. If it weren't for those blood suckers, it wouldn't be. I wouldn't be a wolf, Bella probably wouldn't have felt the need to throw herself off of a cliff which would have meant that I would have never met her. And oddly, I was okay with that. At least that way I wouldn't have to drag her back into the world of mythical creatures when she had just managed to climb out of the despair from being forced out of it. Man why did Jared have to ruin it? Everything was going so well, I was going on a DATE. A real one...not one of those where you ask the girl out hoping that at the end of the night she would invite you in and you would get lucky. As much as I hated to admit it, and boy, did I hate to admit it, I was excited. I really liked Bella. Of course, that could always just be the imprint talking. Whatever it was, I knew I wasn't escaping this. And for once, I didn't want to try. I was happy with this turn of events.

A/N: Well, like I said, since I had soooo many reviews the first night that I put the story up, I have given you another chapter, this one just as long as the first. Keep the reviews coming, and I'll keep the updates coming.
