PAUL LAHOTE

10

"good morning babe." paul says as i get changed for the day in my usual alabama hoodie and sweats along with my jordan's.

"morning. i'm gonna run and get some coffee for everyone, want anything?" i ask pecking him on the lips

"no i'm okay. i'm gonna go back to sleep before my next patrol." paul says

"okay babe. see you later." i say kissing his cheek

"hey y'all want anything? i'm going to starbucks." i say as everyone's ears perks up

after everyone told me what they wanted i got my keys and left for starbucks. as i got there, there was this cute boy that looks familiar.

"cadence?" he asks as he leaves me confused

"sorry do i know you?" i ask

"is your last name hill?" he asks

"no i'm sorry i must be the wrong cadence i'm sorry." i say with a sympathetic smile

"okay my bad. what would you like today ma'am?" he asks

"umm i would like..." i say what i wanted and finished with "that's all."

"okay that'll be $20.43." he says

"okay....here ya go." i give him the money and less than five minutes later he gives me the coffees and i leave to go home

"i'm home!" i yell and everyone grabs their drinks as i sit down on the counter. next thing i know i see paul come down the stairs with something that looks familiar but i can't really see it until he holds it out.

"what the hell is this cadence?" paul asks as everyone gasps and i just stare back and forth from the pregnancy test to him.

"i-it's mine." emily speaks up "i didn't want to go in mine so sam would find it. i'm sorry for the misunderstanding paul." emily says

"oh. it's fine." paul says as i see a tint of hurt but then he changes it and looks relieved and sits down by me.

"i'm gonna go for a walk." i say as i get up from the seat and get my phone and put it in my pocket

"okay...do you want me to come with you?" paul asks

"no i'm okay. i'm gonna stop by jakes and see if he's home anyways i need to tell him something." i sigh and walk out the door not even looking back

as i get to jacobs house i see him in the tree line and run to him "jake please don't hate me." i say

"what are you talking about cady?" jacob asks

"i'm pregnant with paul's baby!" i shout putting my hands over my mouth

"your acting like he doesn't know cady." jacob says

"because he doesn't. he almost found out that the pregnancy test was mine but emily stuck up for me saying it was hers. i don't think paul wants a baby." i say as i cry into jacobs shoulder

"listen if he doesn't want to have this baby that your carrying them screw him. the pack has your back cadence never forget that." jacob says soothing me

"okay thanks jake." i say

"no problem cady. now go tell him." jacob says

"alright." i say as i walk away

i start to get closer and closer to emily's house as i'm finally there. on her porch. i sit down putting my face in my hands as someone comes outside sitting next to me.

"babe?" paul asks

"yeah." i ask sniffling

"are you crying? did someone hurt you? who did this?" paul asks

"i- please don't hate me paul." i say looking at him with tears in my eyes "i'm- pre-pregnant the test was mine not emily's." i say getting it out of my chest.

i look away ashamed that he doesn't want this baby with me until he lifts my chin up to make
me look at him.

"baby. your pregnant?" paul asks

"yeah. please don't hate me." i say crying

"babe i could never hate you. you have our baby growing inside you." paul says "how far along are you?" he asks

"i don't know. i'll have to go to the cullens." i say

"what?! no! your not going!" paul shouts

"paul carslile is the best doctor for me. your gonna have to let me go or at least come with me." i say

"fine." paul groans and takes his phone out and tells carslile everything.

"he said we can come tomorrow around 1:30." paul says smiling while putting his hand on my baby bump that hasn't even showed yet and kisses me.
