Once they arrived at Mike's house, Cayla quickly thanked Paul and his car. As she walked with grace, he couldn't help but take his eyes off of her. 'She has a boyfriend' he thought to himself, But, his wolf side didn't seem to care. So he had to use all of his energy into resisting the imprint, and put the car into drive, taking one last look at the love of his life.
Then Cayla reached the door, and as she stood closely to it as she raised her arm and she gently knocked her fist against it. After waiting for a few moments she saw her boyfriend with an annoyed look on his face, not yet realizing who it was.
When he did take in who it was he suddenly became wide-eyed. "Hey babe, what are you doing here?" He asked.
"Uhm, coming to see you, unless you don't want me to. Are you okay? You seem off." Cayla questioned. Why was he being so suspicious?
The boy sighed. "I don't appreciate you coming to my house out of nowhere without even asking."
"I just thought—"
"No Cayla, you didn't think."
"First of all, I'm your girlfriend if you forgot. I thought it would be nice to surprise you, but now I don't think that it's such a good idea. Secondly, can you please tell me what made you think you could talk to me like I'm a fucking doormat. And thirdly—" Cayla paused as she looked past his figure that was blocking most of the doorway.
There was a bra. A purple bra lying on the ground not to far away from them. It was lacy, and it definitely was not Cayla's. Her and Mike never went that far when it came intimacy. And the only person that lived with him was his dad, so it couldn't have just been a family members dirty laundry. Cayla fumed as she realized what was going on.
She shoved him out of the doorway, feeling a burst of strength.
Cayla leaned down and picked up the bra by one of the straps, "And who does this belong to?"
Mike reached for the clothing item in her hand. "I can explain—" he paused, trying to come up with an excuse that was good enough, but that's the thing, there was none. "It was..... just a one... or two time thing."
Cayla felt her heart slowly crumbling. She rarely let herself completely open up with people, and apparently she made a very wrong decision when she decided to get with Mike. And even though they hadn't even dating long, Cayla still cared for him very much. Her eyes started to water as she opened her mouth to speak. "Is she still here?"
"Uh, I told her to leave before I opened the door," He mumbled, avoiding eye contact.
"Who is it?" Cayla asked. "Hello, so are you just gonna stomp on my heart and not give me any explanation?" She said, her sadness shifting to anger.
"Oh my gosh will you calm down we weren't even dating that long." Mike finally snapped.
Cayla walked up in front of him and forced the blonde haired boy right in the eyes. "Well I liked you so much, who knew that you would turn out to be such a dickhead."
Mike sighed heavily. "Cayla, I'm so sorry that this happened." He apologized, putting his hand awkwardly on her shoulder,
"You're just sorry that I found out." She said. She ripped off the necklace that he gave her when her asked her out and threw it the floor. Then, she stormed out of his house, slamming the door behind her.
Shit, how was she gonna get home?

Cayla had been walking for about 20 minutes before she decided to call someone. At first, Cayla just needed some alone time. But currently her legs were starting to get tired from walking for so long. She went to contacts and dialed her brothers phone number.
She sat down on a nearby bench as the phone rang in her ear for about 10 seconds before going to voice mail. "You have got to be kidding me." She sniffled as she thought about the horrible day that she was having. She should have just stayed with Paul, he always made her laugh.
"Cayla? Is that you?" A familiar voice asked from her left side. Cayla moved her hair out of her face to see her imprint.
Seeing her distraught state, he didn't say anything. He just sat next to her on the bench. "You know, you don't have to tell me anything. Just know that this— abnormally large shoulder will always be here for you to cry on." Paul said. Hearing that was all that Cayla needed before she started softly crying.
Paul really wanted to know what caused her to be in so much pain. And he really wanted to make whoever did this to her pay. But he knew that this was what Cayla needed, With so much negative things happening recently, she just needed someone who wouldn't judge her, and even though she didn't know Paul for a long amount of time, Cayla felt that he could trust her with anything.
Cayla leaned her head on his shoulder which caused him to wrap his arm around her. He couldn't see her face, but he could feel the tears as the made contact with his shirt.
"Paul?" He looked down at the girl. "Can you give me a ride home, I really don't feel like walking?" She let out a fake laugh as she sniffled.
"Of course." They both got up and he guided her to his truck.

"So what were you doing in this area? If you haven't noticed The Rez is in the other direction." She joked, taking her mind off of Mike.
"Well Jared likes these kind of weird chips and they only sell them in Forks, and of course, being the great friend I am, got them for him." Paul said, boasting.
"I can't deny the part about you being a great friend. Thank you by the way. For everything." Cayla smiled at him and he nodded.
"No problem. I thought you had a brother? He doesn't seem like the person to leave you by yourself on a random bench."
"Oh, he's not usually like that. I don't know, he was just busy when I called him. Which is weird since he usually calls me back very soon if he misses a call from me."
"You guys seem close?"
"Yeah we're twins, since we were little we have always been close and done things together. Perks of being twins with someone I guess. Even though we're polar opposites he's my best friend, who I just happen to live which can get annoying at times." She ranted.
"Sometimes I wish I had siblings. I only live with my Dad, since my parents got divorced. If I had siblings then my house would probably be a lot less, I don't know, lonely?"
"Next time that you feel lonely, just call me and we can hang out. Wait wait, this is my house."
Cayla unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to open the door when she suddenly turned around and hugged Paul tightly. He was pleased and his wolf was too. Paul said goodbye and Cayla climbed out of her car.
Cayla walked into her house with a smile on her face. After she changed her shoes— (of course, her parents would kill her if she didn't) —Cayla strolled happily into her house. As she went into the kitchen she went into the fridge and pulled out a Capri-Sun she saw her Father leaning on the counter with a smirk on his face.
She jumped as she saw him. "Jeez, I didn't see you there." Cayla walked towards him and gave him a quick peck on the cheek as she walked past him.
"New boyfriend?" He asked. She felt herself choke on her drink and viciously shook her head no.
"No, Paul is just a friend. And I just got out of a relationship so I think I need a little time." Cayla sighed as she was reminded of Mike.
"Oh... no more of that little white boy?" Her dad asked. Cayla couldn't help but laugh.
"His name was Mike, and no I'm not gonna be seeing him anymore."
