Haven (Paul Lahote Fanfiction)

Different

"What about him?" I asked. "Just what he looks like, is he nice person... that kind of stuff." He asked. I sighed and started. "Dirty blond hair, really light brown eyes, thin lips, clean shaven, sharp nose and jaw. Is that it, inspector?" He laughed and then pressed further, his fingers illustrating shapes on my stomach "What about his body?" My cheeks lightly heated. William had a great body. "I didn't notice his body." i replied instantly. "Uh huh." He said, mockingly. "Okay. He is tall and fair. Big in the shoulders." Huge in the shoulders, i wanted to say, but held it back. "Normal stomach and weirdly long legs." Toned stomach and perfectly long legs. I couldn't believe i was actually swooning over William a little. I had Paul and he was beyond perfection.

"When was the last time you slept?" I asked, changing the topic; the circles under his eyes had gotten deeper. "Last night, of course." He replied, strain in his voice. "Hmm." I considered it. "You should sleep right now. Go upstairs." I suggested. "And what will you do?" He asked, poking my stomach playfully. I laughed and said, "Work... incase you haven't noticed... I have plenty of that." I managed to croak out.

"Okay." Reluctantly, Paul got off me and walked to where my t-shirt was strewn on the floor. He tossed it back to me and i caught it easily between my hands. He then strolled to his drying clothes and shook them out once again, glancing at me twice and then looking away when we made eye contact. I was still lying on the couch, watching Paul wring his clothes. "Please wear your shirt, its distracting." he spoke. I raised my eyebrows and a blush rose to his face. "Comment honnête!" I giggled. "What does that mean?" he asked, looking at me with confusion. "How honest!" I translated and he smirked before walking up the stairs.

I followed him, my shirt still in my hand. I leaned against the doorway and watched him flop down on my bed. He looked back at me and asked "What time will you leave for your date?" I rolled my eyes and responded. "I will leave at 6:15 for my meeting." He nodded and said, "Can you wake me up at 5:45" "Yeah." I agreed while pulling my shirt over my head. "Sweet dreams." I said and walked to my study.

"Paul" I said, trailing my finger down his temple to his jaw. "Paul" I repeated. His eyes lazily opened. "Its 5:50" I said and he sleepily nodded. The doorbell rang and I went to get it. It was Jared, Seth and Embry. They let themselves in and said 'Hey, hi and sup' while sitting on the couch. Seth walked to the kitchen. Now i finally had a chance to ask. "What are you doing here?" Embry looked at me and said, "we were looking for Paul but then got distracted by your Xbox One." I nodded, the Xbox was really distracting. I had already put the TV upstairs on a table in the huge open space that came before the hall that led to the bedrooms, now all i had to do was finish attaching the xbox and placing some comfortable seats.

Paul entered the living room, and grabbed his now dry clothes, pulling the shirt on. "Why are you guys here?" He asked bluntly, but they didn't seem to mind. Seth walked back here, gorging on my chips while saying, "Looking for you." his mouth full. " If you'd like, we could set up your Xbox for you. You know, take some of your load." Jared asked. I sighed and agreed but told them to do it after I leave. "Where are you going?" Embry asked. "I have a meeting in Port Angeles." I told him. They all were talking and making fun of each other while I offered them some food. "I am going to get ready." I announced and dashed up the stairs.

I quickly showered and changed into a black bodycon  dress and black stilettos tied the front of my hair back in a lose bun, letting the lower half fall around my shoulders in lose curls. I took my cheetah  print coat in my hand, and walked down the stairs.

Paul, Seth, Embry and Jared were downstairs, gorging on food and talking over one another. I came down and they all looked at me.

"You look older" Seth said.

"You look hot." Jared spoke.

And then the most unforeseen situation presented itself.
