Okay so here is the REAL Chapter 13. I posted one full of errors, replaced it with an edited version, but I decided to re-write because I didn't really like it...at ALL! I will be the first to admit it was an EPIC FAIL! So here is the (hopefully!) good Chapter 13!

Chapter 13

Bella's POV

"Bella, you ready?" Kim's voice floated up the stairs. I gave myself one last glance in the mirror before descending the stairs to meet Kim and Emily in hall. We had decided to have a 'Wolf-Girl-Day' and spend time together. I was excited.

"Yup! Now let's go!" We were spending the night at Kim's house since her parents are out of town for the summer (It's summer in case I forgot to mention it) so we would have the place to ourselves.

We piled into Kim's small car and drove to the only real store La Push had, in fact Quil's parents owned it, to buy snacks and movies for tonight. We decided to get The Notebook and The Hangover (due to the small selection) and to eat we got a tub of chocolate ice cream and some cookies.

We were in the line up when Kim waved at somebody over my shoulder. "Hey Claire!"

I turned to see a girl about a year younger than Kim and I making her way to us. I smiled as Kim introduced us. "Bella, Emily this is Claire, we went to school together. Claire these are my friends Bella and Emily." I shook her hand and smiled. We talked until we heard Quil's voice.

"Guys, you're my last customers before I get off, could you hurry up? He whined good humouredly. We put our items for him to check out and bag for us. He gave us his discount and we paid. After that was done Kim introduced Claire to him.

"Quil? I'm not sure if you know each other, I mean you're in the same grade so maybe, but this is Claire. Claire this is Quil." I saw Quil's eyes glaze over and looked to Claire who looked just as shocked as Quil. Yup, he imprinted. I grinned at Emily.

"Well, we had better get going, see you later Quil, it was great meeting you Claire, hopefully we see each other soon." With one last smile at them both we made our way back to Kim's car, giggling about what we had just seen.

"I can't believe it! So many of them have imprinted. It's just Jake and Embry now...The legends said it's supposed to be rare, guess not." Em mused, her eyes dancing with excitement. "You never know, maybe next time we do this there will be four of us!"

"Oh! I hope so, Claire is great! I helped her with math when I was a senior and she was a junior." Kim said. I smiled. Kim would be the type to help out younger students.

We made it to Kim's house quickly and started dinner, frozen pizza since none of us wanted to cook, and sang along to the radio. It was nice, just being girls. We teased each other and talked about the imprints and future plans. It was fun.

We sat down with our pizza to watch The Notebook and ended up passing a box of tissue back and forth. I ended up sprawled across Emily, head on a pillow in her lap, on the couch with Kim sitting on the floor leaning against the couch.

We all agreed to do something else before we watched the other movie and went upstairs to get changed into our PJ's. I wore simple cotton shorts and a t-shirt and Kim was dressed similarly. Emily came out in sweats and a t-shirt.

We painted our toenails and made popcorn before we put in the second movie. We had all seen The Hangover, but we still killed ourselves laughing. Leslie Chow was hilarious. It was getting late so we decided to go to bed. We stayed in the living room with a queen sized air mattress that Kim and Em shared while I was on the couch. We talked for awhile more before passing out.

The Next Day – After Bella Gets Home

Last night had been fun and we agreed to do 'Wolf-Girl-Days' more often. It was still early so I called Paul knowing he didn't have patrol. He answered on the first ring. "Hey babe."

"Hey. Do you want to come over?" I asked.

"Of course, I'm on my way." We hung up ad I waited for Paul to get here. It took about ten minutes before he let himself in.

I hopped off the couch and sprung into his arms, kissing his cheek. "Hey!" I said brightly, smiling. "I missed you!"

He chuckled. "I missed you too babe." He said as he picked me up and sat me on his lap on the couch. I leaned back against him and sighed. I never wanted to leave his arms. "So I was wondering, do you want to go out tonight? Get away, just us?"

"Where?" I asked, curious. I turned in his lap so I was facing him.

"Port Angeles. We could go see a movie and have dinner." I grinned at him.

"Sounds like fun! When do you want to leave?" I asked.

"Well, the movie will probably start around five and I want to go to dinner after, so how about we leave at three so we can hang out first?" I nodded, glancing at the clock. It was one thirty now so I decided to hop in the shower.

"Well, I'm going to go get ready...I'll see you at three." I kissed him softly before going upstairs. I faintly heard the front door close.

After my shower I blew dried my hair so it flowed in soft waves down my back, adding some curls in for volume. I did my makeup natural, just highlighting my features. After I was done with that I walked to my closet to pick out what I wanted to wear. I smirked when I had made my choice, Paul would love this.

Paul's POV

I waited at the bottom of the stairs as Bella finished getting ready. I heard the light clicking of her heels on the tiled floor and held my breath as she came into my view. She looked fantastic. She was wearing a mid thigh length white skirt with a floral design and a blue tank top tucked into it. She matched the outfit with nude coloured heels and natural make up. She was mouth-watering. (outfit on profile)

When she noticed me staring she smiled. I held my arms out for her and gently pulled her into an embrace.

"You look so good, my Bella." I whispered in her ear. She giggled, holding on to me tighter.

"Thanks. You ready?" She asked, pulling away slightly. I nodded and led her outside to my car. The ride to Port Angeles was quiet; she held my hand the entire way. We didn't fill space with mindless chatter, we just were. Every now and then we would catch each other's eye and smile, she was, once again, fucking amazing.

We got to the theatre and I bought our tickets to see the new horror movie out, after Bella insisted she did not want to watch the comedy. It was such a small theatre that it only played two movies.

We were in the concession line when I heard the most unpleasant nasal voice. Lauren. Fuck.

"Paul! It's, like, such a coincidence seeing you here! I was, like, so going to call you later! We should, like, hang out! Wadda say, you wanna have some fun tonight?" She completely ignored Bella and talked in what she thought was a sexy voice, but it was really just annoying and migraine inducing. I grimaced.

"No, Laure." I replied curtly, wanting her to leave. She huffed.

"Paul, be, like, serious .I know you, like, want me." I heard Bella snort.

"Lauren?" She asked in a sickly sweet voice. "I don't think Paul wants you, or he would be her with you, not avoiding your calls like the fucking plague. Get over yourself before you like totally make a fool of yourself." Bella sneered out the words 'like' and 'totally'. It was very hot to see her mad and jealous.

I smirked as Tyler came out of the men's room, throwing a glare my way before placing an arm around Lauren. "You ready to go babe?" He asked in a bored voice. She nodded, glaring at Bella before entering the theatre with Tyler. Thankfully they were going to see the comedy. Bella turned to me with a smirk of her own.

"So Lauren has set her sights on you has she?" I shuddered dramatically.

"Ugh! Yes! Poor me. She's awful! And what the fuck is up with her voice? It's fucking awful!" Bella giggled and tugged my hand in the direction of the theatre.

I held Bella through the entire movie and to tell the truth I was shocked. I thought she would be afraid. I guess with all the shit she's been through with the Cullens, wolves and the nomads she didn't scare easily.

Once the movie was done I brought Bella out to dinner to a little pizza bar my mom used to bring me to after we had visited my grandpa in Seattle. I decided to tell Bella everything about me. My past, my regrets, my hope, which mainly were of our future, and my fears. I hoped she would in turn tell me about her as well, but I respected her enough to wait until she was ready.

Once we were seated I took Bella's hand in mine. "Bella, I love you so fucking much it hurts some times. When your away from me I feel anxious, I feel a pull towards you. You are my light." I smiled, not caring how much I would be teased for saying something like that when the pack heard.

Bella's eyes widened. "Paul, I love you more than I ever thought it was possible to love someone. You healed the scars left on my heart, you brought the pieces of me back together and sometimes I forget that I was ever broken. You are my everything." The look in her eyes made me giddy. She was so sincere, so passionate. She was everything.

"Baby, I need to tell you some things about my past..." I trailed off, looking at the tabletop. Her small hand reached under my chin so I was looking in her eyes. They held all the love and encouragement that made me brave enough to start.

I was just about to start when the waiter came to take our orders. I growled lowly in frustration but he didn't hear it. His attention was on my Bella and the way he looked at her made me enraged. He looked at her like she was a fucking piece of meat. Fuck this shit.

"We'll have an extra large cheese with pepperoni and green peppers," I lashed out. I knew that was Bella's favourite kid of pizza and she smiled at me, taking my hand and rubbing soothing circles on my palm. The waiter looked scared shitless. Good.

Once he left I turned back to Bella. "My past is not something I have ever talked about with anyone. The pack knows a little, but that is threw the pack mind. I am the best at blocking things, but it is impossible to block everything.

I grew up with my mom. She was amazing, strong and loving. She took care of me and made me happy. My dad was around too, but he kept his distance from my mom and I. He drank heavily. He had a temper too. I think that's why he stayed away, so he wouldn't accidently lose it. It's nice to know he cared that much." I could hear the bitterness in my tone.

"Anyways it was pretty much just my mom and I when I was younger. My grandpa was a big part of my life as well, but he moved to Seattle when I was seven to live in a specialized home. Mom and I visited as often as we could.

Life for me was simple. I went to school, I kept my mom happy and I avoided my dad. It was routine. When I was fifteen mom and I went to visit my grandpa. We were just outside of Port Angeles when a semi hit mom's side of the door. I had to watch her die, wishing it were me instead.

After she was gone I hated myself. Why couldn't I save her? I turned angry. I fought in school, I vandalized, I did stupid shit. I partied and slept around. By the time I was seventeen my dad had split all together. He eventually got arrested for something to do with alcohol, but I don't really know much about it.

I was a shell. Sex, fights and parties were all I did. I did okay in school, but I never applied myself. That is how life went for me. When I was nineteen I phased for the first time and I thought I had lost it. I was terrified and I hated the feeling. Eventually I came to terms and gained brothers in Sam and Jared, the only two phased at the time, and sisters in Kim and Emily.

My life was getting back on track. I had a purpose and I had friends. But I was still hollow. I met you and my world turned around. I met you and my purpose grew. It revolved around you. You may not realize it but you put my mind to ease. You make me simply Paul. Not the guy I used to hide behind. You take away all of my pretences. You make me want to be better. For you, for us."

When I was done speaking Bella was quiet. She had both my hands in hers and had never looked away from my eyes. She seemed to be thinking hard about everything I had said.

"Paul, I'm so sorry you went through all that you did. I am so proud of you; you went through all that shit and you are such a strong, true man because of it." She took her bottom lip between her teeth as she contemplated something. She opened her mouth to speak when the waiter came with our pizza.

He eyed Bella again before he turned to walk away. Good fucking choice. I turned back to Bella and her eyes were set, determined. "I think it's time I told you everything as well." I nodded, silently telling her I would not interrupt her the way she hadn't me.

"My parents married young, right out of High School. They had me a year later. They fought a lot and eventually split. My mom took me away from Charlie to live in Phoenix. That's where I grew up. I never had many friends, never truly fit in. When I was fourteen when mom met Phil.

I like Phil well enough, he's a little young, but he's nice. When I was fifteen they got married. Phil plays baseball and travels a lot. Mom always stayed with me, but I could tell he wanted to go with him. Finally I made the choice to move to Forks when I was seventeen. I know mom still feels guilty, but I wanted to go. I want her to be happy.

My first day of school sucked. Everyone was interesting the new girl. I made some friends and I sat with them at lunch. That's when I noticed them. I was filled in on the rumours of the Cullens. How strange and standoffish they were. I found out for myself first hand.

Edward was in my biology class after lunch. He looked like he was in pain and glared at me the whole time, not uttering a word. He was out of his seat and threw the door seconds after the bell rang. He wasn't there for the rest of the week.

He eventually came back and acted all polite and made small talk. I was wary, but I was drawn to him. After the first snow fall I was almost hit in the school parking lot. Edward saved me, pulling me out of the way. I knew something was up. No one could move that fast, right?

Edward wouldn't tell me and we avoided each other. Never talking. Slowly we went back to talking and one day I went with some of my friends to La Push for a bon fire where I 'met' Jake. I already knew him but hadn't seen him in years. He told me tribal legends, trying to scare me, and mentioned the Cullen's.

He didn't look too much into it, but I did. It clicked. I didn't want to believe it, but I did. Eventually Edward and I started dating. I met his family and I thought everything was good. That's when I met the nomads. James, as you already know, tracked me and bit me. Edward sucked out the venom and James was killed.

On my eighteenth birthday I got a paper cut and Jasper lunged at me. That was the day Edward made his choice. A couple days later he brought me into the woods to break it off. I guess you know the rest of the story..." She looked down, avoiding my eyes. I could feel the hurt and betrayal, but there was no heartbreak. I had healed her as she had healed me.

"I love you." She said it so surly that it made me smile. She looked into my eyes and I kisser her palm.

"I love you to. Are you ready to leave?" I asked. We were done eating. She nodded and I got up to pay the check at the till.

We exited the little diner and walked back to the theatre where I had left the car. I was so happy that we had talked about all of that. It was all behind us now. I had just thrown my arm around Bella's shoulders when I smelt it. There was a leech and it was about two miles away, but I could smell it getting closer.

Once it was about half a mile away Bella stiffened, wrinkling her nose. "Jesus, what is that?" She complained. I growled.

"Vampire." She looked up at me with wide eyes then down the side walk where a lone vampire stood. Bella looked like she was going to faint.

"Edward." Her jaw was set and her eyes on fire. She was shaking in both fear and rage. Edward was glaring at me, small growls erupting from his chest.

"Bella," He breathed. His voice made her cringe into me more. I wanted to fucking kill this mother fucker.

And that's where I'm going to end it! Mean I know. Anyways what did you think, was it good? Please review! I need your thoughts! Thanks!
