Anger management ~ Paul Lahote~

Chapter 16

A week later

Cassandra's POV
---------------------

It's been a week since the bonfire.

I haven't seen Paul much this week. Because he's either on patrol, training or sleeping.

I miss him.

**

I was lonely today so I decided I would go hang out with Emily.
And I was hoping to see Paul there.

When I got there it was just Emily.

"Hey em"

She jumped then saw it was just me and calmed down.
What the heck?

" oh Cassandra it's just you." She said.

"Yeah, why so jumpy?"

" Paul didn't tell you?"

" I haven't seen Paul in like a week"

"Oh well um the battle it's looming like within the next few days."

I gasped. I didn't realize it was so close.

"I- I didn't even know the battle was so close. But I mean I guess it makes since. Why Paul hasn't been around so much."

Emily just nodded. I could practically feel the worry rolling off her.

We worked in silence cleaning the house and making food for the guys.
I feel bad for Emily, she has all the guys here all the time and they are one messy bunch.

By the time we finished I was exhausted. I laid down on the couch and let out a yawn while closing my eyes.

***

I woke up to someone shaking me.
Shit did I fall asleep?

"Babe wake up. "

I opened my eyes and saw Paul!

"P-Paul?" I asked astonished that he was here.

"Yeah babe, I'm sorry I haven't been around."

" it's okay your here now." I said wrapping my arms around his neck.

"That's the thing" he said pulling me close to him. "The battle it's tonight. I came to see you before we left."

I pulled away slightly; his hands still resting on my waist.

"Tonight?!"

"Yeah... I'm sorry I didn't tell you before. This week has been so busy and horrible. I was starting to get sick. "

That that he mentions it he does look a little pale.

"You can't fight Paul. You're ill."

"I'll be fine. Just being in that same room as you helps. "  he said. 

I wanted to argue more but I know it would be in vain.

Me and Paul spent the next hour just laying in each others arms. 
But it was sadly disrupted by Sam saying that it was time to go.

"Paul?" I asked stopping him before he got out the door.

"Yeah?" He asked. But I didn't respond I just pressed my lips to his. He was surprised at first but then kissed back.

"What was that for?" He asked when I broke the kiss for air.

"I didn't want you to leave without doing that first."

He nodded, quickly kissed me then left.

***

I waited with Emily for hours. There was no news and we had no idea what was going on or if anyone was hurt.

*ring*

I heard my phone start ringing but I answered it immediately hoping it was news.

"Cassandra is Jake, he was hurt." Paul's voice came through the speaker.

I didn't respond I just ran out of the house toward mine.

When I finally got there I saw Bella there.
Why is she always around!? All she does is hurt Jacob doesn't she know that!?

I walked up to her pulled my fist back and punched her as hard as I could in the face.

"This is your fault!!" I yelled as someone who I recognized as Paul from the feel pulled my away from her and to his chest.

"Easy there tiger." Paul said locking me in his embrace.

"No! This is all her fault!" I yelled trying and failing to get out of his grip.

Lucky for Bella some guy came out of my house and said Jake was asking for her. 

Seriously Jake?!

Paul decided it was in everyone's best interest of he took me home with him and saw Jake tomorrow. I agreed and he took me to his house, us falling asleep almost immediately after we got in his bedroom.
