Thanks for reading and reviewing, it means a whole lot to me to know that others are enjoying this story. I promise it's about to get hella crazy in Paul & Bella land. Enjoy!
Nope, still don't own Twilight.
I did end up falling into a deep sleep, hell it was hard not to. I was laying next to my imprint and was going on little to no sleep for the past few weeks. I woke to a tapping at the window and glared at it, especially since it was still dark outside. I was surprised to find that Bella was on her side and I was wrapped around her like ivy. Stupid subconscious me. At least I was awake before her. I gently untangled myself, careful not to wake her, and went to the window as the annoying tap went on again.
I opened the window and shot a death glare at who was hanging from the sill. "This better be fucking good, like you telling me that you know where the bloodsucker is." I hissed.
"Worse. I just thought you would like to know that Charlie is awake in his room, snoring stopped a few minutes ago. That is unless you wanted to be caught in bed with his daughter." Jared snickered.
"Well hell." I glanced at Bella over my shoulder, finding she was still out cold, and hearing footsteps coming closer I just jumped out the window. Jared went to laugh at me before I reached over to smack him. "Shut it." I whispered, knowing Charlie was checking in on his daughter. I stood against the siding of the house like a criminal and let out a sigh of relief when I heard the door close. "Get your ass back in the trees. I'll meet you in a few." I was already climbing back in the tree and into the window.
I glanced out the window seeing the cruiser pull away and I sighed. It was Monday, meaning Bella had school. I glanced at the alarm clock. 5:30 in the morning. Surely that was too early, or maybe that was just an excuse to climb back into bed for a few more minutes. I was so damn thankful that an alarm went off a half hour later since I fell back asleep. Bella looked around dazed as I groaned and sat up slowly, detangling myself once again. I could get used to this. She blushed a deep red as she realized I was still in bed with her. I smirked. "Sleep well?"
"No nightmares." She stated, surprised.
I quirked an eyebrow. "You normally have nightmares?"
She nodded once. "Yeah. I usually wake up screaming...Charlie stopped checking on me a while ago." She still sounded surprised, then blushed again as she looked at me. "You look better. The circles under your eyes are gone."
I was still frowning somewhat at her confession of nightmares. What the fuck did those bloodsuckers do to her? I touched my eyes and shrugged. "I didn't know I had any, but thanks for telling me I looked like hell yesterday." I smirked and stood up, stretching. "Go get ready for school."
If it were even fucking possible she blushed even more. Dammit, that blush did things to me. Damn her already having a tight hold of me.
She went into her closet, grabbed what looked to be like jeans and a t-shirt, then disappeared into what I assumed was the bathroom. I moseyed on downstairs and into the kitchen. I never could fucking cook so I just poured her some cereal and set the milk out for her so the fruit loops wouldn't get soggy. I sat across from it, wondering idly if it would be rude to get myself a bowl. My stomach was already growling. I groaned. Fuck it, I would replace the damn fruity o shapes if she had a problem. I dumped some into a second bowl and ate. Fuck hunting and eating food raw. I knew I wouldn't have time for a real meal until later.
Bella came down ten minutes later and gave me a warm smile. She looked so much better, well rested. I took pride in knowing that I had at least done something right. She raised an eyebrow at me eating. I just shrugged. "Sorry," I mumbled, "I won't have time to eat for a while."
"I don't mind. I was just thinking about yesterday and how much food you guys all put away. Where does it go?" She was looking at me so curiously I had to laugh.
I patted my flat stomach. "Wolf thing I guess. I figure it takes a lot of energy to be what we are. We are the tribe protectors." I rolled my eyes at the name, it was kind of cheesy, but it was taken seriously. "We run on little sleep, and run around as giant ass dogs all day. Need our energy." I smirked.
She sat down and started eating her cereal. "Did you guys find out who the other scent belonged to?" It was an innocent question, but I could hear the hope behind her words.
Hope that one of the Cullen's had come to check on her. Hope that they were fucking back. I gripped onto the table, the shaking already starting to take over my body. "No." I spat. "We checked the Cullen house, no ones fucking back, sorry to disappoint you." I stood up abruptly and slammed the chair back into place, causing the whole table to shake.
I could see her wide eyed expression to my outburst through my red hazed vision. I was fucking stupid to think that maybe this could all work out. Fucking stupid to even imprint on Isabella Swan, the girl who dated a fucking vampire and still loved them dearly. Still loved them even after they left her a complete wreck. A complete wreck for me to imprint on and have to fucking deal with and fix.
I was shaking violently now as everything went through my mind, the red haze had almost taken over. I didn't even notice Jacob and Jared coming in to pull me out of the house. Barely heard their words as they begged for me to calm down. "NO, Fuck this!" I shouted before my body was shifting, my good shorts tearing into a million pieces and landing on the lawn. I took off tore the woods, hoping to God I would find a fucking vampire so I could tear them limb to limb.
