I looked out the window. Seeing the clouds below us made me get lost in my own thoughts. I was really back in my old pack house were my family was murdered and now I cant even say a proper goodbye. Ashley. What did happen to her? Did vampires get her or is her name on there cuz people thought she was dead? To many questions and not enough answers. Soon sleep did take over and I was left in a deep sleep full of nightmares of my past.
.....
I was running for two days before I finally took a needed rest. I found the closest cave. It was dark out so I quickly fell to sleep. But apparently I didnt run far enough. And when I woke up in an unfamiliar place I knew I should have kept running.
I tried to stand up but realized I was in a cage. I rubbed my eyes and opened them again. The room I was in was dark, like pitch black dark but after a couple of seconds my eyes adjusted and I saw about 30 or so people looking at me. Man and woman were standing there in there fancy clothing and expensive jewelry, looking at me like I wasnt in an old cage, that was locked on the outside. Everyone looked almost the same. Black hair, redy eyes and very very pale white skin, like scary white. "You guys should go outside more." I said outloud. And once I realized that I quickly slapped my hand over my mouth.
"Well we would if we could." Said a tall man coming from the crowd. He stepped forward in front of the cage. "My name is Kyle, I'm the leader of this Vampire clan. And you my dear are now apart of it. But to do so we need to put you through a lot of training." They unlocked me from the cage but I had to stay right next to Kyle. The next thing i know is that i can taste dirt all in my mouth. I open my eyes and see my self on the ground. I spit out the dirt and looked to see Kyle had pushed me. "Now you shall do what i say or I'll feed you to the prisoners. And let me tell you something. They dont play nice with wolves."
...
I jolted up. Sweat and tears were running down my face. My first meeting with that stupid son of a bitch still left me scared. I wish I could just forget. Forget everything like the five years I'm still missing before I found my old home.
It took me a minute to realize that I was no longer on the jet but in a very comfortable bed. I wiped my face with my shirt and took a minute to look around. It was still dark so there wasnt a while lot to see. But there was an open door a couple feet away from me that looked like the bathroom, a closet on the other side. Across from the now empty bed was a tv mounted on the wall with a small table underneath. I walked to the balcony door and opened it. There on the other side of the door was a small town. The moon shined over everything making it a little easier to see. No one was walking around though. Where is everyone?
"Theres a curfew." Said the voice behind me. I jumped and turned around and saw Xavier leaning against the open door. I sighed and shook my head. What was weird was that Xaviers face was a little red and he couldn't keep his eyes with mine.
"You got to stop doing that. And I'm sorry for saying that out loud. I usually do. Most of the things I think, i actually say without realizing it."
"Its fine." Me being a complete idiot realized I was freezing. I looked down at myself and realized I was just in a pair of sweatpants. I quickly ran inside and pulled one of the blankets from the bottom of the bed and put it around my shoulders. I sat down in the edge of the bed holding it close. Haha so that's why Xavier couldnt keep his eyes locked with mine like he usually does. He was so checking me out.
"Fuck. Why is it so fucking cold?" Xavier laughed a bit before closing the door. He walked over and layed down next to me on the bed.
"You do realize its winter right? And during winter it gets cold. Did you not see the snow covering the entire town?" I shook my head.
"Nope." I said popping the p. "I'm oblivious about a lot of things. One is weather. I once walked outside in just shorts thinking it was a warm day but it happen to be snowing." As I told my little story I didnt realize I had layed down next to Xavier. Ohh fuck you Milo. Taking control while I lived a happy moment.
'But you know you love me Colton. And I was doing it for the both of you, if he allowed you to sleep in his bedroom I would sure hope he wouldnt mind laying next to you.'
'Milo what do you mean his bedroom? Wait is this his room?'
'Yes you god damn idiot. Can you not smell his scent every where in this room?' I took a moment to smell the room.
"Just realizing this is my room?" I looked to my right and Xavier was staring at me smiling.
"Yes. Yes I did. Huh?"
"What?"
"I didn't know you smiled." His smile got a little bigger.
"Well I am. So deal with it." I was feeling a little brave so I moved over a little until I felt my body against his. He tensed up from the sudden movement but allowed it. He placed his arm around me and pulled me closer. The last thing I remember before falling asleep is hearing Xavier say. "Sorry."
.....
I woke up the next morning to find myself tangled up with Xavier. He was laying on his back with his arm around me, my head layed on his chest and our legs were a mess. "Well looks like someones finally awake. I turned my head to face him.
"Morning to you to."
"Colton it's not morning." I gave Xavier a confused look so he continued. "Ok when you fell asleep on the plane it was like 5 amish and when you woke up it was like 9 PM. And before you ask why, I went to the pack doctor to see why and he just said that you were just very overly tired. Then we both fell asleep at what I think was 9 30 and now its 3."
"Huh. Not surprised I slept a whole day." I said while sitting up. I got out of the bed, but I instantly regretted it as the cold air hit my skin. "Fuck! I fucking hate winter!" I grabbed a blanket and turned to look at Xavier. I gave him a small smile.
"What is it Colton?" He asked getting all serious.
"I'm hungry." He sighed.
"Not surprised. Do you want a shirt before we go down?" I nodded. He threw me a shirt from his closet. I put it on. And let me tell you this thing was huge. It was like were a dress. Xaviers shirt fell all the way down to my knees.
"Holy shit are you tall."
......
We made our way down stairs and as soon as we got in there Xavier went over and started to get things out. "So whatcha makin?" He looked over at me. "And you better not say-"
"Its a suprise." Xavier said finishing my sentence. We didnt say much after that but once the food was done the entire room smelled. Of burned food. Yep burned food. Little to know fact about Xavier is that he cant cook.
"XAVIER HOW THE FUCK DID YOU MANAGE TO BURN COOKIES?" I yelled at Xavier who was throwing them out.
"IM SORRY! I THOUGHT IS SAID TO PUT THEM IN THERE FORE 20 MINUTES NOT 12!" He yelled back. We now sit at the kitchen island eating cereal. Not that I'm complaining cereal is amazing but cookies are to die for.
"Fucking cookies. Xavier if you are to be my mate you are going to have to learn how to cook. Cuz if you havent realized I fucking love food. Like almost as much as my family."
"Colton I cant cook. I've never been able to cook."
"So than why the hell did you try now if you knew you couldnt?" I asked giving him a very confused look.
"Well I wanted to see if I could do it for you. Ya know. I wanted to see if I had someone worth cooking for than maybe I could actually do it." Speechless. That is what I was. I was being such a bitch when Xavier here was being so nice.
"Can I kiss you?" I blurted out. Shit why does this always ficking happen. I placed my hand over my mouth. "Sorry it was my inner thou-"
"Yes you can. If you want." Xavier interupted. I looked him right in the eye. He wasnt lying or so I think he wasn't. He used both his hands to take mine off my mouth then moved them around the back of my neck. We both started to move towards eachother.
"Hey it smells horib- AHHH!" We both jumped away from eachother and saw Finn at the door.
"What are you doing Finn?" Xavier asked angrily.
"I could ask you the same thing." They had a little staring contest that Finn was just terrible at. "Fine I came down here cuz I heard yelling so I though I would check it out. Turns out it was just a makeout session."
"Finn leave them alone." Said a woman who walked in. She walked up to me and put out her hand. "My names Hannah. I'm finns mate. It's good to meet you. I've heard a couple of stories as to what you did back at the airport and might I just say you were quite bold. Also question, did anyone look at you weirdly when you were over Xaviers shoulder?"
"Its good to meet you to. And yes I got a lot of them. Thanks to Xavier I'm sure theres a couple of youtube videos of it." Hannah shook her head before walking over to the stove.
"What the hell were you two trying to make?" Hannah asked looking at the pan that was used for the cookies.
"HEY! If I new Xavier couldnt cook I wouldnt have let him touch the cookies. But apparently he decided to not bring it up and waste such beautiful creations." I wiped away a fake tear.
"Oh shut it Colton." Xavier crossed his arms.
"No why should eye?"
"Can you two please stop your making me very uncomfortable." Finn said. I looked over at him. "Thank you very much."
"Ya okay. I'm going back to bed."
"What why? You just slept for like a while day?" Hannah asked.
"I dunno. Actually I'm not but I have to do something." I said. I ran back up to Xaviers room and went over to my bag. I took out my phone.
"Colton?" Papa said. I smiled. It was good to hear his voice.
"Hi papa."
"Oh god Colton. You had us worried sick! Where are you?"
"Well that's a long story. I'm in the UK."
"And why the hell are you there?" Dad asked.
"Umm well Xavier the head of the pack here is my mate." There was a scilence. It lasted for about a minute. "Hello?"
"Hi. Ya sorry. That's.... wow. Xavier?" Papa asked.
"Yep. Ya I know I had the same reaction."
"Well besides the fact that he took you there without us knowing. How is he treating you?"
"Hes been good papa. I mean I dont really know what it's supposed to be like but I feel like there may be a chance that I could be happy here. Maybe even Xavier could help me loose the memorys of the past and I could go on."
"Well that's great honey. I'm really happy to hear that. You need someone who can do that. Someone who can help you. I know me and your father tried to help and I know it didnt work all the time but I do hope you find your happiness. And we will give you a week. In a week I want you to call again and tell us if you want to stay and if you do we will come and visit every chance we get and if you dont we will get the next flight." Tears had already been coming down my face. "Colton you there?"
"Ya I'm here." I wiped my face. "Thanks papa. I'll try. And I'll call you in a week and I'll give you my answer."
"Well I have to go. I love you Colton. And i always will."
"I love you to." Then the line went dead. I kept the phone to my ear for a little longer before placing it back into my bag.
"Everything alright?" Said the deep voice. I still did jump and look back at him but hes the only one who can sneak up on me.
"How much did you hear?" I asked.
"Enough to know about the little deal going on with your paps. And while your here for the next week I'll try and make sure your happy and comfortable. Though I cant always promise that, exspessually if it's a hard day.... But Colton we do need to talk about something."
"Ya what is it?"
"Well first I just want to say that if we are mates I want to be truthfull. I know I can be hard sometimes.."
"Like at the airport when you literally carried me." I interrupted.
"Ya like that. But like I said I promise to try and make you happy. But I just want to know what you want to escape from so badley?"
