Paul Narita is a fictional character from Days of Our Lives, an American soap opera.

Paul was created under head writers Gary Tomlin and Christopher Whitesell and portrayed by actor Christopher Sean. Paul was introduced in November 2014 as a famous baseball player who needed to have surgery on his shoulder. Paul flirts with every woman he sees, but is eventually revealed to be the closeted gay ex-boyfriend of Sonny Kiriakis, whom Paul considers to be the love of his life. Though the surgery proves successful, Paul is unable to pitch again and finds comfort in the arms of journalist Will Horton, at the time portrayed by (Guy Wilson). Will has convinced Paul to come out in a magazine article. In addition to maintaining his image, Paul is also afraid to come out for fear that his family would not accept him. The series then introduces Paul's mother, Tori who supports him even though she is afraid of the public backlash. In April 2015, Paul is revealed to be the son of long running character, John Black.

The romantic pairing of Paul and Sonny became known as 'PaulSon', while the romantic pairing of Will and Sonny had been known as WilSon. With Will and Sonny not together at the time, and Will having lost his memory and having no recollection of his previous relationship with Sonny, a love triangle ensued; Paul wanted Sonny, Sonny wanted Will and Will wanted Paul. Paul and Will would become involved in a relationship when Paul returned Will's affection. However, when Will regained his memories, Will now wanted Sonny, Sonny still wanted Will, and Paul still wanted Will.
