Forever and Always

Analeigh’s POV

I was walking to Jacob’s so I could drop off their now fixed clothes, when I saw a girl storm out of the garage and hop into an orange truck before driving off.

I watched as Jacob came and stood at the opening of the garage with a sombre look on his face. Abandoning the idea of going inside I made my way towards him and placed the bags on the floor as I stood next to him
“Jacob?” I spoke hesitantly and he inclined his head towards me to let me know he was listening “are you going to be ok?” I asked knowing that he wasn’t ok now but wanting to know if he would be.

He sighed and shrugged
“I don’t know,” he turned his head so he could look at me “that girl is the love of my life and she just drove off to be with another guy” I frowned
“love of your life?” I asked and he chuckled
“it feels like it” I tilted my head and asked curiously
“is she your imprint?” he shook his head and heaved a sad sigh
“no she isn’t,” he looked off forlornly “I wish she was though” I nodded and placed a comforting hand on his arm
“I’m no good with relationships but I do know that if she is with another guy and leaves you to be with him then one she is losing out on a guy like you and two, she is with someone else and it will do you no good pining after a girl who is with someone else” Jacob groaned
“but he’s no good for her and I know that some part of her, however little, likes me back” I sighed knowing that he was too into her to see reason so I just patted his arm again then asked
“is Paul inside?” he nodded and I grabbed the bags again before walking inside the house.

Walking inside I walked straight up to Paul’s room where he was laid out on the bed and dropped the bags on the floor
“ok so I think I sorted them into the right piles but as you guys are kind of the same size it was a bit hard to tell so you and Jacob are going to have to sort through everything and decide who gets what because frankly I have no clue” I stated from my spot, when I looked at Paul I saw he was smiling at me from his place on the bed, I frowned “what?” he chuckled
“nothing, you’re cute” he said and I scrunched my nose
“cute? I was hoping more for fantastic and amazingly hot” I teased and Paul chuckled
“well those too, come over here” he ordered and held out an arm. I smiled as I walked over and crawled onto the bed beside him and snuggled into his side the arm he held out now draped around my waist pulling me closer to him.

We lay there for a few minutes before I spoke
“as much as I like just laying here with you, why are we just laying here?” Paul laughed
“you are such a fidget, can you actually stay still for 5 minutes?” he asked and I pouted
“yes I can thank you, but this isn’t answering my question” he shrugged
“I like just being with you, it’s relaxing, even if you’re constantly in motion” I smiled and clasped his hand in mine
“that’s sweet” I then just lay there breathing in the scent of him, that earthy, sexy scent which drove me nuts.

It was silent for a while until Paul randomly asked
“go out with me tonight” I jumped slightly at the sudden sound before looking up into his face and raising a brow
“tonight?” he nodded with an unsure smile and I pretended to think about it “you mean like a date?” he nodded once again and I asked with a small smirk “our first date?” he sighed then groaned
“yes our first date, will you go with me?” I bit my lip
“I don’t know, what would this date entail?” I asked and he chuckled
“that would be a surprise, a surprise you won’t find out if you don’t agree to the date” I sighed, put upon
“then I guess I’ll have to go” he chuckled and kissed my forehead before a silly grin crossed his face
“you are going to love this” I smiled
“really?” he nodded, seeming really excited and I giggled at the sight before I kissed his cheek then got to my feet.

He whined as I left him, sounding like a lost puppy
“why did you get up?” he moaned and I giggled as I pointed to the bags
“you need to sort through them, I am not going on this date with you if you’re just gonna wear shorts” Paul raised a brow
“really?” he asked in a low tone which sent a shiver though me but I shook my head
“no way, this is our first date and you will wear a shirt mister, now find one” he groaned but got to his feet and sat down on the floor next to me, pulling a bag over to himself to search through it.

After hanging out in his room for a while, talking and having fun, he dropped me off at home, around 4 and told me to be ready at 6:30 so he could take me out. I nodded and kissed his cheek before watching him walk off into the trees before I dashed inside and over to the phone.

Grabbing the phone I dialled Leah’s number and waited impatiently for her to answer the phone, after 9 rings she picked up
“hello?”
“Leah!” I shouted into the phone and she groaned
“ouch Ana, that hurt”
“sorry, but I have an emergency” I heard Leah perk up
“is there a vampire near your house?” I groaned
“no worse!”
“What’s worse than a vampire?”
“I have a date with Paul and I don’t know what to wear!” I exclaimed, there was silence for a moment before she said
“I’ll be there in 10” then there was a dial tone as she hung up.

I sat waiting for her on the stairs, as soon as a knock came on the door I flew to it and hauled the door open before grabbing her hand and slamming the door closed, nearly catching her hand in it, before I dragged her up the stairs to my room.
