"Does Bobbie know about the pregnancy?" I ask while getting up to stretch, even though I kind of know the answer already. Sky bites her lower lip and shakes her head. I’m not surprised, "We have to tell her, love. She hates to be left out.” "Also… you're starting to look undoubtedly pregnant," Roc
Danny. Just hearing his name pisses me off. Oh, so he's allowed to be obsessed with his girl but I'm not? Fuck him. And fuck his fated bond. "I don't need a fucking bond to care about my wife," I spit out with a snarl I can't help, "Ex-wife, whatever. Fuck you, Rocky." "Why? I'm not the one who
"We're ready," Sky informs Rocky when we reach the living room. "Cool, but something came up. I have to go… you guys have a good family day, yeah?" He says and comes closer to kiss Sky's cheek, even as she's trying to ask where is he going, "None of your business. I'll see you later. And you should
"So, when are we telling her? Before or after we eat?" I ask, face to face with Sky. I can tell she wants to wrap her legs around me like she normally would, except we're in public (and just friends, supposedly) so she stays like that, with her feet dangling on the air, and just puts her arms around
So, I let this one go. I’m not completely unreasonable, see? I can be a good just-friend. I turn back to Bobbie and the loser kid. He's talking about something extra boring while Bobbie looks up at him like he's perfect. It’s so fucking annoying... but it’s also… cute. No. This is betrayal to m
When we get our food, Bobbie looks at the triple decker longingly, but that's what she gets for being fake and dumb about food when I’m sure Henry wouldn’t think twice about what she’s eating. Still, she's happily chatting with the boy about their friends at school, homework, her being grounded a
"That's a good idea, Henry, thanks," Sky says in a soft voice, so the boy takes one last good bite of his burger before scooting his ass off the booth. Sky turns to me and before I know it, she lets her head fall to my chest. I wasn't expecting the contact, but I welcome it, "I'm fucked, he's totall
"That sounds like a solid plan. I'll live at home for another year and a half to help you with the twins, but then I'm totally moving out. Once you feel like you have it all handled on your own and no longer need me, I’m out… let's shake on it to make it official," I offer her my hand. She grabs it,
It takes me two seconds to move, but I get up and walk to him. He looks so handsome right now, wearing a crisp white button shirt with black dress pants and his hair styled the way I told him I liked it. And the way he's carrying those roses... yeah, I'd like a picture too. Good luck my mom is being
"Well, you fucked up by giving it to me so early," I laugh, "Even if we're together, I'll hide it for a while. I just don't want people all in our business asking why I let a boy mark me without a ring on my finger like a dirty whore." "Oh, shut up," he says, rolling his eyes and chuckling, "As if
I blink, still unable to believe this is even happening. “That means putting a pause on you being ‘single’,” he continues after a few seconds, “I know I haven’t earned any rights to you, what I’m asking for is the fair chance to get those rights. And if possible, clear instructions from time to ti
I sigh as I look at him, still nervous. "So I ruined your control when I figured out I was in love with you," I say. Henry takes a deep breath and nods, "But we're not kids anymore, Henry. So why did you reject me? I just don't... I don't think you 'liking me' is enough. What I feel for you goes b
I am listening. I mean, I'm still too confused to do anything other than listen. Henry opens his mouth but doesn't get a chance to say anything because my friends are trying to come back inside. "I said fuck off," he repeats, reaching to lock the door, "Go to your stupid party or whatever, then yo
"I noticed… hell, I asked for it," I admit, sighing and going to my closet to grab something. They follow me, demanding to know, "I asked him to pretend the last month didn't happen. I realized I liked my life more before, with the way we were. I just have to... slowly fall in love with another man.
Only ten minutes later, Bobbie comes into the kitchen and she starts helping me. We don't say anything about the bathroom situation. "Mags and Tams are sleeping over tomorrow," she lets me know as I'm driving to uni. I try to hide my annoyance, unsuccessfully, "They despise you too, now more than
Now I know how is like to touch her, to kiss her and fuck her for real, not as a dumb kid. Now my wolf is involved. Now I know what I'm missing and I want it back. ➿➿➿➿ For two days, we go back one month ago before the clusterfuck of feelings. We go to school, we go to work, we hang out with
"You haven't been doing things right, Henry. And I'm disappointed in you. If you love her... show her. Say it. It won't make you less of a man or whatever you think. She needs to hear it and see it, do you get that? It's not enough to just feel it, speak up." Damn. I gulp and nod. "Exactly what
