We spent most of the night dancing with the rest of The Silver Eyes Pack members. Slowly though as the early morning hours arrived people started heading off, small groups here and there disappear into the rows of houses. Then larger groups wondered away.
In the end the music changed to slow and romantic, so my group decided that maybe it was time for us to turn in too. Tommy walks in front of us with Trick’s arm draped across his shoulders, Trick stumbles around talking gibberish in Tommy’s ear.
Tessa and Drew walks along beside me, Drew has his arm wrapped around Tessa’s waist which she doesn’t seem to mind at the moment. Drew looks forward his eyes still slightly dull in colour but he doesn’t let it show.
Nate walks on the other side of me, laughing at his brother his arm wrapped around my waist tightly so my whole side is touching his. I don’t mind it’s alright, though I think if I were a bit more sober I would be freaking out and moving away.
Trick looks back at Nate a big lopsided grin on his face. Then he mumbles something which Nate seems to catch because he chuckles lowly his arm tightening for a second. We stumble into Tessa and Drew as Nate leans more weight on me, I mutter an apology then try to straighten him up as he starts slumming.
“Nate.” I groan as his puts more weight onto me.
All he does in response is tighten his hold on me. I heave a sigh of relief when our house comes into view, Tommy kicks the door open and helps Trick through dropping him onto one of the couches in the lounge room. He turns to go but Trick grabs him and pulls him down to him hugging Tommy like a teddy bear.
I resist the urge to laugh as he looks helplessly at us.
Taking Nate toward the other couch his legs give out from under him and we both fall to the floor. He pulls me close to him as he mumbles something in my ear then passes out. I cast one glance at Tessa then follow him.
Coming back into the land of consciousness I let out a deep breath trying to get comfy, but when that doesn’t work I gingerly crack one eye open to see a clothed chest under my head. I quickly close my eye again squeezing it shut to try and remember what happened last night. Vague images pop into my head.
Opening my eye once more I stare at the clothed chest for a second before opening the other eye too. Glancing around from my spot I realise that I’m in the lounge room of my new house; I can see Tessa and Drew curled up on the couch near my both fast asleep.
I don’t move my head an inch scared to wake who ever im using as a pillow up.
So what awkward predicament did you get use into? My wolf asks as she yawns lifting her head up.
Um…. I hum peering around again. I don’t think any.
That’s alright then I suppose. She grumbles. Just ended up sleeping on someone then.
Well he’s still wearing his shirt. I say in a small voice.
And pants. My wolf states as she heightens my senses.
Yeah. I sigh.
Glancing around again I slowly lift my head up and turn it to see the face of my pillow. Nate’s amused copper brown eyes meet my own, a glint of something in his eyes that has my frowning slightly.
“Morning.” He yawns loosely throwing an arm around my waist.
“Yea morning.” I say as I look at the other couch to see Trick sleeping peacefully with Tommy tightly clutched to his chest, his eyes slowly opening from sleep.
“Urgh... I can’t remember much from last night.” Nate says as he rubs a hand down his face. “Though waking up was pretty nice.” He smiles gently at me.
I look at him for a second seeing something hidden behind the smile, a secret. “Are you alright Nate?” I ask my brows furrowing together.
He looks at me in confusion for a second. “Fine.” He states after a while schooling his features carefully.
“Sorry, I-” I trail off as the front door opens and closes my brothers scent drifts into the lounge room, shortly followed by Claude’s. Another scent hits my nose, my eyebrows twitch in confusion at the new scent.
“Smells like your brother and his mate were busy last night.” Drew mutters from the couch slowly pulling himself into a sitting position along with Tessa.
I look at Nate. “That other scent means there mated.” He confirms.
I leap onto my feet, watching out for Nate as he quickly spreads his legs so I don’t hurt him. “Sorry.” I call over my shoulder as I run to the front room. Throwing my arms around my brother a giant smile on my face. “Congratulations Noah.” I say as I pull away, pulling Claude into a hug I congratulate him too.
“Umm… Thanks.” Claude mumbles awkwardly moving closer to Noah a blush colouring his checks.
“So adorable.” I smile as I look back at Noah. “I’m using the bathroom first.” I yell into the silence.
“I’m second.” Tessa’s voice soon follows.
Running up the stairs to the bathroom I strip out of my clothes and get under the warm water quickly washing myself, I then wrap a towel around my waist and brush my teeth. Exiting the bathroom I look down the hall to see people moving about.
“Your turn Tess.” I yell going into my bedroom.
I wait in my room for about fifteen minutes before Tessa throws the door open and wonders in with a towel wrapped around her. She goes over to my draws and pulls some clothes out.
A knock at the door has me leaving my room with Tessa following closely behind, I glance around the hall but see no one going to answer so I shrug my shoulders and move down the stairs. Throwing the door open I freeze for a second then allow a scowl to cover my features.
“And what do you want?” I sigh.
My mother steps forward. “We just want to talk.”
“So talk.” I instruct still holding the door open.
“I just wanted to see how you were doing and talk about what happened to you.” She takes another step forward.
“I’m doing fine thanks as you can see and no I don’t want to talk about what happened. It’s in the past no need to dwell on it.” I let a satisfied smile slip onto my face when I see her flinch.
“Amethyst!” I hear Nate call my name as footsteps sound on the stairs.
I turn my head to look at him. My breath momentarily getting caught in my throat as I stare at him. He stands at the foot of the stairs with only a towel wrapped around his waist, crystal water droplets run down his chest. I quickly raise my eyes up to his to see a sly smirk on his face.
Schooling my features I scowl at him. “Yea Nate? What can I do for you?”
“Pants would be nice thanks.” He says simply. “Oh and some for Trick too.”
“I’m sure there’s some spares somewhere.” I mutter my eyes slowly dropping back to his chest.
“Oh and Drew too.” He suddenly says.
I turn back to my parents letting an easy smile cross my lips. “I’ve got to go. I won’t talk to you later.” With that I slam the door closed.
Turning back to Nate I watch over and punch him in the chest.
He backs up a step tripping over the bottom step and falling back onto the stairs, rubbing his chest he looks up at me confused. “What the hell was that for?”
I smirk down at him. “You know exactly what that was for.”
He pushes himself up grinning. “I couldn’t help myself.”
“I realise.” I laugh.
He just smiles.
“I’m gonna go make breakfast for everyone.” Tessa says as she ducks around the corner into the kitchen.
I just stare at Nate for a long second trying to figure out what to do with him, letting my feelings for him get in the way will only hurt both of us in the end. But it won’t hurt anyone at the moment. I think to myself as I step toward him.
“Follow me. I’ll see if I can find any pants for you lot.” Walking up the stairs I pause as the bathroom door swings open and Trick exits a towel around his waist.
Letting out a long sigh I walk past to the wardrobe at the end of the hall, swinging the doors open raise my eyebrow at the neat stack of folded clothes at the bottom. Pulling out three pairs of pants I throw one to each of the boys as Drew strolls out of the bathroom a cloud of steam following him.
“I’m hungry.” I say after a silent five minutes, each of the boys standing there in pants now.
Walking past them Nate brushes his fingertips across my stomach as he turns to follow me to the kitchen.
