I sat up abruptly as I woke up, checking my surroundings until I remembered I was in Kilyan's room. I pushed myself off the couch and stretched, looking at the bed I saw Kilyan and Luke still fast asleep. As quickly as I could I whipped out my phone again to take a picture. I felt like such a creep but I'd need evidence that this happened before they both started denying it: Luke snuggled up against Kilyan, who had his arms wrapped around my best friend in a very possessive manner. Luke had his arm thrown over Kilyan's abdomen while his face was buried in my cousin's chest and it was the cutest and most cliché thing I had seen in my life so far. I almost squealed very fan-girl like, but kept it in as I snuck out of the room. I knew there was a bathroom down the hall but I didn't have any clothes to change into, so I just trudged down the stairs to the kitchen.
Kilyan's parents were away on pack business so the house was empty and the eerily silence was only broken by the kettle when I turned it on to make some tea. As I was pouring it, I felt Lucifer come towards the kitchen and ultimately me. I didn't have to hear his footsteps or see him, my wolf's pull towards her mate was growing stronger until I winced again, which I seemed to do a lot lately.
"Morning, Eddie." I almost dropped my mug when I heard his sexy morning voice and that topped with the fact that he'd called me Eddie... You get the picture.
"Morning. Tea?" I tried to sound as normal as possible but felt like my voice went about an octave higher when I spoke.
"Sure, thanks." He grumbled and slumped down on the high chair that stood at the kitchen "bar". "How was your sleep?" He went on and when I turned around I could see he'd had a shower by his wet hair.
"Good, I guess. I fell asleep on Kilyan's couch." I laughed and placed the mug in front of him. He finally lifted his head and looked me over. I straightened up and tried not to blush when his eyes finally met mine.
"You want a shower?" He asked but I could tell he wasn't trying to be mean, which was definitely a first.
"Well, yes, but I have no clothes to change into so I'm just gonna have to wait until-"
"You can wear some of mine." He interrupted me and I stared at him with wide eyes.
"Wh-what?" I spluttered.
"I have some spares over here since I basically live here what with pack business and beta training and all that. I'm sure I can spare a pair of sweats and a shirt." He mumbled into his tea. I knew he didn't only "basically" live here. He did live here; his parents had died in the big wolf killings ten years ago and ever since then he hadn't gone back to his "home".
"That'd be... very nice, thank you." I said slowly still trying to comprehend what was happening and why he was being so nice. I mean I knew we were mates, but... he sure hadn't shown any inclination of kindness to me before due to that reason. He abandoned his mug and stood up, motioning for me to follow him. I left my mug with his and did exactly that. His room was... well. I couldn't say what I expected because I hadn't really known what to expect. Kilyan's room was all earth tones, dark browns and greens with his sports trophies and medals everywhere and maybe ten books in total. Lucian's room was... no it was not red, as you'd expect the devil's quarters to be, but it was painted white, with dark wooden furniture and blues everywhere. His bookshelf filled one of the walls and was full of books, ranging from big, bulky and old ones, to slimmer editions. His walls were as bare as Kilyan's except for a picture of him with his parents, a picture of his parents on their wedding day and... which surprised me the most a picture of Kilyan, him and myself. Kilyan and I must've been 4 which would've made him 6 at the time and we were grinning into the camera, Lucifer was missing a front tooth and had me in a headlock, but I looked happy for a change. I stepped closer to the pictures and could feel his eyes on me so I turned back quickly to see him standing there with the promised pair of sweats, a shirt and a towel as well.
"You can use my room to change after if you want... you know if the sleeping beauties decide to wake up and want the bathroom." He sent me a lopsided smile, shoved the things into my arms and almost fled his room as if a bunch of warlocks was after him. I frowned but couldn't keep the smile off my face as I left his room and entered the bathroom to shower.

I heard voices when I came downstairs into the kitchen, showered and in Lucifer's clothes. they were way too big on me, I could've worn his shirt as a dress, the way it hung down my figure. I wasn't short, I was actually really quite tall for a girl but Lucifer was just freaking massive. The animated conversation died when I entered the kitchen and I saw Lucifer sitting on the high chair again and Kilyan making some toast.
"Morning." I smiled. "Is Lu still sleeping?" I saw a blush taint Kilyan's cheeks before he turned away to check on the toast.
"Yes, I... let him sleep." He muttered and I grinned, but the grin disappeared when I felt Lucifer's stare. I turned to him and this time he didn't even look away. We continued to just kinda stare at each other until Kilyan cleared his throat.
"So I see you're wearing my beta's clothes." He drawled, obviously happy to be able to tease me for a chance. "How come?" His smirk said everything.
"Certainly not because of what you're thinking." I drawled back. "I needed a shower but didn't have any spares, so Lucifer here gave me something to change into." I thought I heard Kilyan say something like sure thing but chose to ignore it. With a look at the time I straightened up and turned to leave only to have Lucifer's voice stop me.
"Where are you going, fairy?" Oh, we were back to being mean.
"Heaven, where I belong. What do you think?" I sassed and walked right passed him and tried to open the door. But when I did, all I could see was white. I pulled the door open wider and shouted of my shoulder:
"Erm, guys. Please tell me I'm not just seeing this." I heard some shuffling and soon I had too very tall males behind me who were staring at the white wall in front of us.
"Shit." Lucifer exclaimed.
"You stole my words, dude." Kilyan agreed. Still gaping at the snow we didn't hear Luke come down the stairs until he spoke.
"What're you guys staring at?" He mumbled, his voice still thick with sleep and bed hair that stood in all directions. He pushed past Kilyan and Lucifer and came to a stop beside me.
"Shit." He whispered and Lucifer let out a humourless chuckle.
"My words exactly."

Luke and I had made quite the spectacular breakfast from what we had in the fridge. It's not like it wasn't well stocked (the Luna made sure it was, with three hungry male wolves in the house, who were also bigger than normal wolves since they were two Alphas and a Beta), but more the point of what could we rescue and use before Kilyan and Lucifer had already eaten it. They had one hell of an appetite and we had to work quickly before they had he chance to eat all the ingredients. In the end we had actually managed to pull of a full English breakfast, pancakes and some more tea. Satisfied with our work Luke and I called the other two back into the kitchen to eat; we had sent them away because of the reasons listed above and also because when they weren't eating the food away, they were standing in the way and because they were bigger than normal wolves they were also more of an obstacle.
"We have food for those who want it!" I shouted over into the living room and seconds later, the two of them were sat at the table and piling food on their plates.
"It's as if they hadn't eaten for days." Luke joked as he took his place opposite of Kilyan.
"I know, poor babies." I cooed as I sat down next to him.
"We're no babiesh." Lucifer muttered around the piece of bacon in his mouth.
"Do not talk when you eat." I scolded and laughed at the dark glare he shot me.
"Just eat already, you fairy." He grumbled and turned back to devouring the food.
"This is really good." Kilyan moaned and I laughed.
"My pleasure, sir." Bowing mockingly, he grinned and it felt almost normal- except for the fact that we were snowed in here for an unknown space of time.
-
"I'm bored!" I exclaimed as I lay on the couch, with my head dangling off it and my legs thrown over the backrest.
"Suck it up fairy. We're all bored." Not surprisingly Lucifer was ready with an answer.
"Why don't we do something together? It's so quiet." I whined and he appeared in front of me. "You look funny upside down." I laughed but he didn't find it too amusing, because he picked me up by the waist and threw me over his shoulders.
"Put me down! Put me down, Lucifer or I swear to the gods I will-!"
"What? I can't hear you, there's this sound in my ear, like little bells. It's quite annoying to be honest." He laughed out loud and I could hear Kilyan moving down the stairs and Luke was in front of me.
"I will kill you, I swear!" And with that I started pounding my fists on his strong back. He only laughed louder. "Lucifer! Put me down!" I screeched and what did the big oaf do? He started spinning around. I screamed as he sped up and everything around me became blurry, so I wrapped my arms around his waist and held on tightly, burying my face in his back. I didn't even notice he had stopped until his laughter grew louder and Luke was tapping my shoulder. Carefully I let go of Lucifer and looked at him.
"Lucian, let her down." Kilyan laughed and finally I felt Lucifer lift me up and off his shoulder. He put me down on the floor in front of him and let me go, but had to catch me before I fell to the floor because I was dizzy.
"Don't you ever- ever do that again, do you understand?" I snapped and closed my eyes for a minute before opening them again to find myself looking at his broad chest. I looked up and saw a slight smile playing around his lips.
"Whatever you say, fairy." And with that he left to go and find Kilyan.
-
"He is so infuriating." I complained to Luke as we sat in my aunt, the Luna's study. I knew Kilyan and Lucifer wouldn't come here, since they were strictly forbidden to enter her rooms, but I was allowed, I always had been.
"I know, Ed. You've only told me ten times."
"I'm sorry. So- how was your night?" I winked at him and he blushed a deep red.
"I- I don't know wh-what you mean." He stuttered.
"Oh you know exactly what I mean. Which bits do you remember? You fell asleep quite early." I wiggled my eyebrows suggestively and he hid his burning face in his hands.
"I remember falling asleep and... erm... somehow ending up in his lap? I think...? And then this morning. I was in his bed. Oh gods, Eddie, what if he hates me now?"
"Don't you fret. He was the one who carried you to his bed." I smirked and his blush reached another level of red.If he wasn't careful there'd be smoke coming out his ear soon.
"He did what?" He whispered.
"Carried you. To his bed." I nodded, to which he hid his face again. He was the cutest person to tease.
