You want to print it conditionally based on the page variable
Something like this
<?php if ($page == 0) { ?><h2 class="title"><?php print
$title?></h2><?php }; ?>
Or as link, like this
<?php if ($page == 0) { ?><h2 class="title"><a href="<?php print
$node_url?>"><?php print $title?></a></h2><?php }; ?>
