Paul Lathoe x Bella Swan

Chapter 6

Bella Pov: Sunday
Bella woke up and felt some arms around her, she knew it was Paul but she still couldn't help but be confused. I wonder did he go to patrol? Did he not? And if he did, when did he come back. Bella was thinking of a millions question right now. However, she ignored all of them and decided to cook for Charile and now Paul.

Knowing that Paul eats a lot because of him being a wolf, she tried to make a lots of food for him. Eventually both men woke up and came to the kitchen. "I didn't know you cooked." Charlie laugh at this. "Yea, she do especially since I can't cook." He explain. Paul took a bite and he immediately loved it. "This is really good." He compliment. "Thank you. I'm glad you loved it." Charlie end up leaving to hang back out with Harry and Billy this time. Leaving just Bella and Paul.

Bella look over at Paul and watch him eat. Paul noticed this and looked back at Bella who just started blushing. "Sorry, it's just how can you eat like that?" She jokes. "Wolf duh." Paul responded back jokely. "Hey, Paul?" Paul face back to her, "yes?" "Did you go to patrol? Or did you stay here?" She asked.

"I stay here." He answered. Bella was confused, she did say that he can leave, on the other hand, she was glad he didn't. Paul saw Bella confusing, "Well I was going to go at first but while you was sleeping, you were holding onto me very tight. I tried to move you but you have a very strong grip. Anyway as you were griping me, you kept saying, 'Don't leave me. Don't leave me. He already left too.' I figured you was talking about Edward, so I stayed here. Sam and the pack understood. However that made Jacob pissed because Edward basically gave you abandonment and trust issues." He explained. All Bella could do was smile and hugged him and thank him. Which he back and then told you're welcome.

"Oh, and Bella. My favorite thing to do besides eat is to played with the pack." He finally answered the question Bella asked way before all of this. "That's nice." She replied back. "Um, Paul? You don't have to answer if you don't want to but before all of this when me & Leah was hanging out, I asked her what is your problem with me and if you're ever going to like me. Anyway she responded back saying she doesn't know you like that except for what happened with your dad who was abusive to you. Is he in jail now?" Bella asked. Paul flinch but not because of his father, but instead because of Bella. He 100% feels guilty about what he did.

"Yea he is. He abused me from a child, all the way to 13th until I finally told someone. He was always drunk, that's why my mom left him. She wanted to take me with her but she didn't win custody over me in court. I don't know what my dad did, but she couldn't even share custody me at all. I remembered screaming in court that I wanted to go with my mom but nobody listen. So, when it was time for me to go against him in court. I made sure to bring that up and blame the system for never letting me go with my mom." He explained. Bella felt bad for him. "I'm so sorry you went through that." Paul just hugged her in return.

"Anyway let watch some movies." He say not wanting to talk about it anymore just in case he get mad and shift by accident. Bella got the hint and turn on the T.V in the living room. "What do you want to watch?" She asked. Paul thought about it before answering. "Um, how about you decide." So, now Bella was thinking about it. "What about Maleficent?" She suggested, Paul shrugged his shoulder. "Sure, it doesn't matter to me. I never seen it before." He admitted which Bella dramatically gasps at. She put her hand over her heart, "You never seen this before? Oh we're definitely watching it now." She started laughing at that which Paul couldn't help but laugh at as well.

After the movie ended Paul felt a lot of emotions about it. "Don't tell the pack about this especially Quill and Embry. They would definitely teases me about this." Bella actually growl at this which not shocked Paul but herself as well. "Bella, I meant in a jokingly way. I can't believe you just growl." Bella couldn't believe either. How in the hell did I just growl? "I think it about time, we finally figured out what is wrong you." He says. Bella agreed to this because she wants to know why she's acting this about Paul, especially the trying to attempt suicide and then now the growl.

"There are some books about Supernatural creatures, why don't we them to see which fit you the best." He suggested. After reading half of the books, they didn't really find anything have could explain all of this, but then suddenly Bella yelled out, "I think I found something."

Bella showed Paul what she read, basically she might be a shifter as well but a different kind. She was showing signs of being a tiger-shifter. "I might be a tiger?" She asked but mostly to herself. How is this even possible? Are Charlie or Renee like this? Could they even be my real parents? Will even if Charlie turned out he isn't, he is still better then Renee so I would always think of him, as my father.

Once they got done reading, they went down to the Rev to meet the pack there. "Finally what you guys so long to get here?" Quill asked, while playfully hitting Paul. Bella loudly growl at this. "What the fuck? Did she just growl?" Jared asked shocked, as for everyone as well.

"There go your answer Quill. Let just say that I said you or Embry might jokely tease me about something and Bella growl at that. I tried to calm her down, after that we decided to find out what's wrong her. After reading so many books, Bella finally found something. It turn out she is showing signs of be a tiger shape-shifter." The whole pack was in shocked. "We could speak to Billy or the council about this. Maybe they know more." Sam suggested. Bella decided to go along with it because she really wanted to know more. Bella also knew she would have to talk to Billy soon anyway, with him volunteering to be her therapist.
