Paul imprints on Bella. Sounds simple, right?

I've chosen another character this time, as I am slightly bored of writing Bella/Jasper Bella/Jacob.

PS. I don't like the Bella/Edward pairing much, I always feel she should've been with someone less possesive, and someone who keeps her happy.

Enjoy! :D

''But Edward, I promised Jake I would go to the campfire tonight. I wasn't asking your permission, I was telling you I am going tonight, and I will be back after midnight. I promise you that'' I finished my statement with a loud thwump, as I sat down on Edwards ridiculously large bed, eyeball to eyeball with my furious vampire fiancé.

''No, Bella! I don't want you to go to the reservation. At all, if possible, but I know how much he means to you. But I will not have them natives poison your mind against me and my family! I forbid you to go Isabella!''

''Listen to me Edward, I am going and I will be back later. I won't be controlled! I know you don't like me going down but I promised Jake and he is my best friend!'' I hated it when I argued with Edward ''I'm leaving, now'' I zipped over to him, pecked his cheek and left his house, an open-mouthed family in my wake. I guess they were surprised i'd defended myself against Edward for once, but hey, there is a first for everything.

My truck groaned as I pressed the ancient pedal to the floor, its whine growing in pitch as it sped up. I knew I wouldn't slow down until I was safe behind the treaty line. Safe? Jeez, Bella, you sound like you're running away from danger. I chuckled to myself, then grinned as I saw Jacobs little red house just around the bend. I killed my speed and idled in front of his house for a few seconds before killing the engine.

I had barely jumped down from the cab when I was engulfed in heat and strong arms.

''Jake!'' I squealed before returning his bone-crushing hug.

''Missed you, Bells'' His voice muffled in my hair. I pressed my face closer to his chest, breathing in his familiar woodsy smell.

''You too Jake'' I found my voice was thick with tears. I gulped them back and I was released. I looked up into his smiling face and smiled back.

''Come on, come see the rest of the pack!'' We were headed to Emilys' house, a couple of minutes away from Jakes own home, I was gonna meet the pack for the first time, well in human form anyway. I had only ever seen them as, well, wolves. I saw Emilys log cabin come into view and skipped next to my giant of a friend. He laughed.

''So, how'd ya get away from that leech of yours?'' I was still angry at Edward, so the name slipped past my ears without a reprimand.

''I just left after telling him I was coming here. He was upset, but I couldn't care. I keep him happy all the time. I just want some time with my friends''. I saw his poorly disguised smile and gleeful tone.

''Good one, Bells!'' He high-fived me and giggled. Yes, giggled. I shook my head, rolling my eyes at his behaviour. He knocked on the door, then just let himself in. The party mood was infectious, and from the window I could see the pile of drywood gathered up for the fire later. My excitement grew.

''Jake? Is that you'' A feminine voice floated down, and assumed it was Emily.

''Yeah! And I have Bella!'' A celebratory shout followed that statement.

I followed Jakes huge form into the jam-packed room, grabbing a soda on my way in and slurping it. My eyes instantly flew across the room, meeting a myriad of dark gazes on smiling faces. But one gaze had me captured, captivated with the sparkle in them; the life caged in there. I didn't even realise I had moved forward until I was in front of Paul. His eyes still on mine, encouraging me forward, toward his person. His being. I started feeling, I don't know, complete somehow. Now I was seriously confused, but I felt a wave of something so pure fill me, I buckled into his arms before I had a chance to even know what had happening. He smelled like leather, a warm day and something else, and it was wondeful. I should've pulled away, but it felt right. The room was deadly quiet. The silence was deafening.

I felt myself being wrenched away from the comfort of Pauls' arms and found myself in Jacobs' arms. And for some reason it felt wrong. Really wrong. I looked up from the muscled chest and saw Pauls face contort in some unknown emotion and it felt like it was killing me to witness that. I wondered what the hell was going on. I turned back to Jacob who was wide-eyed and open-mouthed, this look echoing on nearly all the faces in the room. Paul looked at me and then left; the entire group heard him phase. Sheesh, he had anger issues. But I found myself wanting to comfort him, to wrap my arms around him. I felt strange. Empty.

''Jake?''

''Hm?'' The Quileute boy seemed distant. I prodded his vast shoulder. That gained his attention.

''Take me home, please'' He could sense the desperation behind my words. I felt so empty though. I shook my head, hard. Hoping to clear it of the thoughts about Paul.

''Sure, sure'' He was still carrying me out of the silent room. I mumbled a ''Bye'' to everyone over Jacobs shoulder. Few people replied to it, some still stood opened mouthed at what had just happened. He sat me in the passenger side of my truck, before hopping round to the drivers side and stepping in. I didn't realise I was crying until Jake pulled up just outside the border and wiped away my hot tears.

''Bella?'' I looked at him. He responded by pulling me into his arms, awkwardly. I entwined my fingers into his, shaking.

''Jake...I...I feel...I feel so empty. Whats happening to me?'' My voice was high-pitched and desperate. He looked scared, and like he needed comforting.

''Bella, I literally can't tell you whats happening right now. But I wish I could'' He cried with me, tears mingling on his chest. We stayed like that for at least an hour until my phone buzzed angrily. I knew who it'd be.

''Edward, I don't wanna talk now'' I hung up before he could reply. My phone buzzed again. I heaved a sigh, and threw my phone out of the window. I heard it whack into the trees and smiled weakly in triumph.

''Now what?'' I questioned.
