Chapter 108 - Burning
Cailen was mildly concerned when he dropped Ezekiel off at school one day, watching as the boy walked away but was approached by a familiar little red headed girl.
Cailen didn't immediately freak out. He stayed calm and just watched from his car, ready to intervene if needed.
Cailen had spoken to Ezekiel's teacher like he had said he would and she agreed to keep an eye on the children.
She also said she would speak to Airene privately and hopefully explain to her about bullying and teasing.
Cailen had been given daily updates when he picked Ezekiel up from school and she's told him that she hasn't seen anything alarming, but that didn't mean it stopped for good so Cailen kept a close eye on the two children.
Ezekiel slowed his pace, obviously a little hesitant towards the little girl and Cailen couldn't help but feel a little angry at that.
He didn't like anyone making Ezekiel&n

They all ate in the living room because their table just wasn't big enough for seven people plus a baby.They put Ezekielon the floor infront of the coffee table, pulled in a few chairs from the kitchen and everyone else just held their plates in their hands.Of course before Hazeland Matthewcould eat, they had to feed Aariyahbut that didn't take too long and now she was in Asherand Cailen'sroom taking a nap in a make shift crib they had made with their blanket so she wouldn't accidentally roll off the bed.It was nice, sitting here on the couch with Asherby his side, Ezekielat their feet eating dinner and their friends spread out in the living room.It felt normal again, and Cailenwasn't only talking about Asherand his accident.It felt normal to be sitting here with Matthewand Hazelhaving to worry about the little girl asleep in the bedroom.It felt norma

The room was silent as the little boy hurried down the hall, the only thing breaking said silence was the slam of his door once Ezekielmade it to his room.Cailenflinched at the noise, fully aware of the sleeping baby in the room next to it. Sure enough, a faint crying noise started, getting louder and louder with each passing second the group of them just sat there.Cailenwas a bit unsure of what to do. Surely there was a parenting rule about not paying tantrums any attention but Cailenwasn't sure if thisisclassified as a tantrum and he was fairly certain he couldn't just let Ezekielgo without seeing if the boy was okay.It was Hazelwho got up first, breaking the apparent game that they all play statues for a moment.Cailenwatched her shuffle by, mouthing out an apology that she waved off, smiling softy at him and squeezing his shoulder on the way.Matthewquickly followed be

Cailen is startled from his sleep by a sudden weight crashing into him and then a wet nose sniffing at his face.He knows who it is instantly and groans, not caring if he wakes Asher up at this point.It's his dog, if Loki is waking Cailen up, then Asher can get woken up as well.Cailen brought his arms up, having to untangle himself from Asher's grasp in order to do so, and shielded his face from the intruding nose.It's not like this has never happened before, but it didn't happen often.Loki was usually pretty good at just sleeping at the foot of their bed, but recently, he's been cuddling up to Ezekiel in his so it was a bit strange.Either way, Loki was waking Cailen up so he started to sit up, just remembering to be gentle in case Asher's arm or leg was in the right position to get squished."Loki, down," Cailen mumbled, his tone firm.Cailen heard a groan come from behind him and knew Asher was now awake.

"Yeah, I love you too," Cailensaid with a small smile before hanging up his phone and slipping it into his pocket.He went to turn around but paused as a man in a suit rushed by him, obviously in a hurry.They were at the airport saying goodbye to Noahbefore he got on a flight to Scotlandand apparently,he was not the only one planning a trip that weekend.You could barely move without bumping into someone and Cailenhad to step away into a corner in order to answer his phone because it was so loud.Once the man had passed,Cailencontinued back towards the small group that was gathering outside the gate Noahwas to go through to get to his flight.They were all there, Matthew, Hazel, and of course Aariyah, William, Asherand Ezekiel, all hugging Noahgoodbye before his departure.He had been in the middle of saying goodbye when his phone rang and he excused himself to answer

Seven years later…"Alright," Cailenheard come from down the hall.It was only a couple steps further so he made the small venture to poke his head around the corner and into the hall to see Asherjust coming up from the basement."The basement isofficially 'Teen-Proof'," Asher said around an exhausted sigh.Cailenfully stepped into the entrance of the hallway, crossing his arms over his chest and waiting for his husband to meet him at the end of the hall and proceeding to follow him into the kitchen.Cailenstill cringed slightly whenever he walked into the kitchen, more so when he had company following him.They were in the middle of renovating the kitchen, the last of the house's renovation, thankfully.When they purchased the house four years ago, they had gotten it pretty cheap because it needed so much work done to it. They just hadn't realized how much work it ne

Maddison rushed over to them, throwing herself into Asher's legs hard enough that her feet left the ground and she was able to crawl into Asher's lap, with his help of course."What do you mean ‘Zekeleft’?" Asherquestioned as he wrapped his arms around his daughterso she wouldn't fall off.She had nestled herself nicely in his lap so her legs dangled over the edge but she was able to look up at them both with her big blue eyes.They adopted Maddison out of the orphanage when she was six years old, soon after Ezekielhad come up to them one day and asked if they were ever going to adopt another child.It was completely random and out oftheblue and had taken them both by surprise so much that they didn't know what to say.They honestly hadn't thought about adopting again, but when Ezekielexplained that he was only wondering because he thought it might be nice to have someone to play w
