I stared at the two smiling dumbasses standing at my door. I had a feeling that they were up to something. Paul and Jared were smart separately, but together, they are evil geniuses. That's why Sam and Jake tried to keep them away from each other when they first phased. They pulled a lot of dumb pranks and they put their life on the line, but they will never let the other get harmed.
"I thought Jake was picking me up." I said, walking towards them. They both looked at each other and smiled. Yup, they were definitely up to something. "What did you two do now?"
Jared pretended to look hurt. "Bella, do you really think we would to anything to our beloved Alpha?"
I looked from him to Paul. "No, I don't think you would. I know you would."
Now both of them pretended to look hurt as they lay their hand over their hearts. "We would never hurt him!" They said.
"Only because we can't. But his car is a whole different story." Paul said, walking to Jared's car and opening the back door.
I frowned. What the hell did they do to his car? If Jake found out that they did something to it, he was going to kill them. Jake loved that more than anything in the world.
"What did you buttheads do to his car?" I asked, getting in the back seat of Jared's car. They were still wearing those evil smiles on their faces.
"We didn't do anything. It has a flat tired. So, we were nice enough to come by and pick you up and meet him there." Paul said, sitting in the passenger seat. Jared started the car and backed out of the driveway.
I just about believed their story before I realized something. "Hold up, Jake put new ones on last week!"
They busted out laughing.
"Come on, Bella! We just wanted to spend some time with you before Jake hogs you." Jared admitted.
That's true. Jake still thinks that I'm going to break into pieces at any moment. He was always right next to me, asking if I was okay. I sat back in my seat and looked at Paul through the glass's reflection. He was smiling. I really hoped he didn't tell Jared about last night. I know want people to stop looking at me as if I'm ruined, but my dad was right. I don't know what will happen to Jake if he found out about Paul and I.
I pulled my phone out and started to text Paul. I had every pack member's number. Jake thought it was a good idea, in case I was in trouble. I could call one of them them if I couldn't get a hold of Jacob.
Hey, you didn't tell Jared about last night, did you? - B
Paul's phone went off loudly. Jared glanced at him. "Who's that? Jake? Is he checking to see that we didn't kill Bella yet?"
Paul pulled out his phone and smiled at it. "Nah, some hot chick I met the other night."
Jared rolled his eyes as Paul started to tap away on his phone.
Before I had time to process what he had just said, my phone went off, but luckily, it was on silent.
No, I didn't tell him yet. I thought you wouldn't like that too much and I wanted to get lucky tonight ;) - P
I smiled at the text.
Who said anything about getting lucky tonight? - B
Paul's phone rung again but Jared didn't seem to care. When Paul looked down at his phone, I heard him silently laugh at it.
Well, I usually have very good luck...so... ;) - P
Before I could text back, another screen popped up telling me that Jake texted.
Hey, sorry about not picking you up on time. I think someone poked holes into my tire. We will be there soon. - J
Jared looked at me in the rear view mirror.
It's okay, Jake. - B
"Who the hell are you texting?" Jared asked Paul. "Are you guys texting each other?"
"Um, no," I said quickly. "Jake just texted me." I'm not really lying to him. Jake did text me.
Paul rolled his eyes. "What does he want now?"
"He just wanted to say sorry for not picking me up and that he'll be there soon." I told him.
Jared parked the car and turned it off. "That guy needs to chill. Paul and I said we would come get you and he went off on how you two better not do anything stupid, blah, blah, blah, I'm Jake and I'm pretty..." Jared rambled on, mimicking Jacob's voice. Paul and I laughed at him.
We got out of the car and entered the cinema. Standing at the entrance, we waited for Jake and the rest of the crew.
"I mean, if we really wanted to hurt you, we would throw a rock under your foot as you walk." Jared said. I glared at him. "Oh come on! You trip over air. A rock wouldn't be any different."
Paul slung his arm around me. "He does have a point. You can't even chew gum and walk at the same time without hurting yourself."
"That's why I'm friends with wolves. To saved me from myself." I said. They snickered.
"God, I'm kind of happy we poked holes in Jake's tire." Jared admitted with a smirk.
Paul pulled me closer to his side. "Are you cold?"
I looked up at him. "Yeah, a little but when we get in there, I'll be fine."
Paul let go of me and took off his hoodie. "Here, put this on. It's only for show anyways."
I felt my face turn red. "Thanks."
For a while, we stood outside talking until Jake, Seth, Embry and Quil finally made it. Jake weaseled himself between me and Paul.
"Hey Bella, I hope these two haven't given you any trouble." He muttered.
I half-smiled. "Nah, it was fun." Jake raised an eyebrow at my comment.
We went inside the cinema and bought our ticked and food. We went into the theater. I wanted to sit next to Paul, but Jake made me sit next to him and Seth. I looked at Paul, who was in the row in front of me and I caught him staring back. Then, I felt my phone buzz. I pulled it out and it was from him.
You're sandwiched between two dumbasses. - P
I chuckled and Seth looked at me. I hid my phone from him as fast as I could. Since Sue and Charlie had gotten closer, Seth has been acting like an older brother. Even though I'm older than him, he could still pick me up with one arm plus he acted a lot like a big brother.
"Who's that?" Seth asked. I put my phone in my pocket.
"Um, a friend from school, that's all." Once I said that, Jake turned to us.
"What friend?" Fuck! Jake knew who I was friends with. This is what I get for telling him everything about my damn life.
"Joe. You don't know him. He's new." Oh god, I'm making this worse! Before they could comment, the movie started. Praise the lord!
In the middle of the movie, I had to go to the bathroom. I excused myself and walked out of the theater, heading towards the bathroom. After I was done with my business, I walked out of the bathroom and as I stepped out, Paul was standing in front of me. He took my hand and pulled me into an empty corridor.
"What are you doing?" I asked him.
"The movie got a little boring for me." He whispered, putting his lips on mine without warning.
"P-Paul...we...we have...need...to stop!" I mumbled, and he pulled away. "I want to, but they're going to notice once I start smelling like you!"
"You already smell like me." He grinned, touching the string of the hoodie he let me wear.
"You had this planned all along, didn't you?" I accused.
Paul grinned widely. "What can I say? I'm good looking and smart!"
"And cocky." I added.
Paul winked and pulled me in for another kiss. He held my tightly as I pressed myself against him. The next thing I knew, Paul picked me up and I wrapped my legs around him, still kissing him like this would be the last time.
When Paul's lips left mine, I tried to kiss him again but he said we had to leave otherwise they would think I drowned in the toilet. Sighing, I walked back in first and sat in my chair.
"You okay?" Jake asked.
"I'm fine." I responded.
A minute later, Paul walked in with a box of candy. He walked back to his chair and I pressed my lips together.
After the movie was over, we were back outside. Jake was standing next to me, like usual. Paul and Jared were talking about the movie and going off about some weird part of it. I don't know how he could have paid any attention to the movie. All I could think about was that kiss we had.
"Hey, Bells."
I looked up to see Jake and Seth staring down at me. "Oh, sorry! What's up?"
"I was saying that some of the guys want to go to the bar." Jake said.
I stared at Paul, who was on his phone.
"Are you going?" I questioned.
"No, I'm going home. I have to work tomorrow, so you can get a ride with me." Jake suggested.
I was going to agree, but my phone went off. I pulled it out and it said it was from Paul.
Remember what you said last night? Baby steps. Going to the bar with us and then going home would be a baby step. -P
"Jake, I was actually thinking about going to the bar." I told him hesitantly.
"Bella, you don't drink." Jake frowned.
Before I could say anything, I felt someone lay a hand on my shoulder. I looked over and saw that it was Jared.
"Don't worry, Alpha! We will take good care of Swan here." Jared promised.
"And going to the bar doesn't mean I'll drink. Go and get some sleep. I'll call you tomorrow." I said, hoping Jake would be okay with that.
Thankfully, he was. Jared walked me over to Paul and Quil. We walked to the car and I looked back and saw Jake standing there, looking like someone smacked in the face. I felt bad, but I wanted to do this otherwise, no one will ever take me seriously.
