Hi, well this is pretty awkward considering the last time I update was over one, maybe two years ago? Oh well, minor set backs.
I'm back and ready for action. This may be the last chapter for this, though. I'm not sure if I'm done with these two quite yet. I may upload some chapter of them in their future, maybe a few lemons, or one-shots of their children. Haven't decided yet. Anyway, enjoy the last chapter.
Collin POV
I didn't think Paige would keep up with denying the imprint for this long. It turned into a week, then a month. Then three months. It got to the point to where it's painful to see her, knowing that she is not in love with me the way I'm in love with her. If it was up to me, I would spend every waking second with her. I already know how I'm going to propose. I know where we are going to live, how many kids we're going to have, and our daily routine. It would be the perfect life, if I ever get there. If she ever..accepts me for who I am.
For the boys, it's not even a joking matter anymore. Paige really doesn't feel the imprint. She doesn't know what I'm feeling. Anytime the subject comes up, she says that she just doesn't want to be tied down at a young age. She wants to live her life for her and not for a relationship.
But, I'm her imprint. She makes me happy, even if it's not being her boyfriend. I can accept that.
That night that she kissed me on the cheek, I thought we were going to progressively grow together.
But, no. That can't happen because that's too easy and God forbid Collin's life be easy.
School ended. It depressed me because school was an absolute guarantee that I would see her, that I would talk to her. To my surprise, she actually wanted to hang out a lot more. This made me happy at first, but I didn't want to live on false hope.
Right now, we're watching a movie, Lilo and Stitch in my living room. I like coming over to my house more because my mom always makes Darren babysit us but he really could give two shits what we do.
"I haven't seen this movie in forever," she smiled. She curled up in my lap, which is weird considering she is usually never this affectionate. I took the opportunity and wrapped my arms around her, resting my chin on her head.
"Me either! I love blue alien puppies," I fist pump.
"Why can't I have a blue mutant puppy?" she pouts. Even though technically, Stitch is an alien, I go along with it.
"Because you already have one," I smiled brightly and winked at her.
In return, she blushed deep red. "Well, you're a pretty big puppy. I want one that's small and goes through the doggie door and eats dog food." I decide not to remind her that I'm just a less expensive version of that. I also decide to keep out the idea of us having a dog when we're older, but she brings it up first.
She stared at me for a little while before saying it. "I want to get a puppy one day," She lays her head down on my leg, facing me. "Like, when we get married and stuff."
My heart skyrocketed.
"When we, what?"
She immediately sat up, as if she upset me. "I didn't mean anytime soon! I just kind of assumed. I mean, this whole imprinting thing is supposed to work like that, right? I mean, I didn't expect to fall for you so soon but, it kinda happened. And when I thought about our future, I got so excited becau-"
And that's where her ramblings ended because I kissed her, more forcefully than I meant to. She laid her back against my leather sofa while I hovered over her. I tried to make the kiss gentle and sweet, but I was too damn excited. I soothed her hair that was around her face and continued to kiss her. When we finally pulled apart, she was biting her lip in a smile. I kissed all around her face and her neck, knowing it would tickle her and make her giggle.
This reinforced me to tickle her sides. The room became filled with her laughter and she inched more under me until we were face to face again. She stopped the torturous tickling my kissing me. She got really into it, wrapping her legs around my wait, pulling my shirt up to feel my abs.
I have never really been with a girl, in any kind of way. It's why I'm so happy that I imprinted on Paige so early in my life because now neither of us have to make mistakes with anyone else. We're going to lose our virginity to one another and spend the rest of our life together.
Paige, however, is now very questionable because she kissing and moaning in my mouth like she's a pro at this shit.
I don't really know how my shirt ended up on the floor, but it did. I have no freaking clue how my hand landed in her bra. I just knew I had to stop this, wherever this was going…
"Wait," I breathed. "Are we like, dating?"
For a split second, I questioned everything that just happened. She just admitted to wanting to marry me, right? She wouldn't kiss me like that unless she meant it, right? In that split second, my heart dropped in fear that she changed her mind.
"Why don't you ask me and you'll find out?" She smiled widely.
I sat up and brought her up with me. "Paige Walker. I love you with all my little wolfey heart. I want to spend everyday making you smile and hearing your laugh. Will you do me the gracious honor of being my girlfriend?"
Her eyes rolled up, as if contemplating her answer. I knew she was kidding, but I thought it was adorable. "How can I say no to that? Especially when you have no shirt on," she winked.
Paige's POV
And that's that. I completely caved in. Over the past three months, I have fallen absolutely in love with Collin. The imprint had to have been real, not that I didn't believe it before. I would secretly think about how our life would be after all this wolf and imprint drama got out of the way. Then today, I rambled on about how in love with him I am. How embarrassing. Then, I practically rape him in the middle of his own living room. It's almost as if when his shirt comes off, horny Paige comes out to play.
Now we're officially dating. A couple. But it seems so much more than that. I feel as if I'm belittling him by calling him my boyfriend, because he's so much more than that. He's my best friend, my protector, my "puppy", my imprint, my soulmate.
The whole reason I denied the imprint in the first place was because of my stupidity. I had it in my head that I would lose touch with myself and give up my individuality by having a serious boyfriend. But after talking it over with Mally, oh yeah, Mally and I are kind of best friends now, I figured out that Collin will not destroy my growing up and discovering who I am and where I fit in. I just need to learn how to separate my friends with my boyfriend sometimes and give myself a little time for me.
After much contemplating, I decided to tell him my decision. I was planning on it being a little bit more special, but it all just spilled out. I figured, there is no inappropriate time to tell someone that you're in love with them.
All is okay now, because I have him right by my side, right where I will forever need him. It's kind of an end and a beginning at the same time. Maybe it's the end of trying to figure my life. The end of trying to find a place in this world. It's the end of my beginning and a start toward my future with Collin, Mally, Brady, Paul, and everyone on this teeny tiny reservation that will always hold a special place in my heart.
