Attraction

35

The drive back to Paul's house kept me wide awake thanks to my thoughts and the story about Leah, Emily, and Sam. I wonder what it must be like to imprint on someone- not that I would ever know but I just wonder what it must be like to just know by looking at another person that it's them.

He and I rest on the couch with one another as the tv plays softly, I remember what Regina told me about Dylan being in Vancouver which momentarily crosses my mind and I debate with myself about whether or not I should tell Paul about it. I decide against it, I don't want to ruin the mood of peacefulness between us. Instead I decide on asking more questions about imprinting.

"So, Renesmee told me that Jacob imprinted on her," I state, "She also told me what she is."

Paul doesn't say anything for a couple of seconds, he looks like he's in deep thought remembering something.

"Yes, he imprinted on her when she was born." He explains.

"He was there when she was born?" I ask feeling surprised. Paul's lips turn upward slightly for a moment.

"Jacob was best friends with Renesmee's mom." He tells me.

"Oh, I see.."I can't think of another response, my mind begins to fill with unanswered questions. "Is her mom a vampire?"

"Bella, yes, she's a vampire now." Paul states, "But she wasn't always. She died giving birth to Renesmee, then the venom kicked in...I've been told." He answers me.

My mouth slightly parts in surprise, I had no idea anything like that could be possible.

"So... Renesmee's dad is a vampire too? Was he the one who turned Bella?" I ask feeling my curiosity grow even more, Paul nods.

"Edward, Renesmee's dad- He fell in love with Bella, they got married. After Bella became pregnant- which none of us ever thought possible... Bella insisted that Renesmee live, she went through with the pregnancy... The night Renesmee was born, Jacob imprinted on her. She's been by his side vice versa ever since then." He tells me.

Part of me feels shocked, the other part of me knows I shouldn't be so surprised at someone falling in love with someone who isn't fully...human. If it's possible for Bella to become impregnated by a vampire, is it possible for a human and a werewolf to have a child? I'm not thinking about having children right now but I can't help my mind from wondering. He takes a sip of his soda while I twirl a lock of my hair around my finger momentarily.

"Aren't werewolf's and vampires supposed to be enemies?" I ask bringing up the subject once more. Paul nods, chuckling for a moment before his smile fades softly.

"Yes, but it's different with Renesmee and Jacob. See... Whoever a wolf imprints on cannot be harmed, it's our law- our most utterly complete law." He responds.

"All of you didn't like Renesmee?" I ask feeling my curiosity continue to grow.

"We didn't know about her kind or what she could do. We have to follow the alpha's orders wether we want to obey them or not. But once Jacob imprinted, it was all over, she couldn't be touched." He says calmly.

I nod my head catching is drift of Renesmee being half vampire, I don't know what order Sam may have given but I like Renesmee, she's kind to me.
