All for nothing

06

Sean stretched his arms out beside him, expecting to feel Violet. He startled slightly as his search came out empty and cracked open his eyes. The glare of the sun from beneath the curtains making him wince.

The man stared at the empty space beside him in slight shock before sagging slightly with a sigh. Wow, okay damn he had to admit, being left without a goodbye kind of hurt. He understood her point but he remembered most of the night and wanted to see her again.

He ended up propped against the headboard trying to will his headache away. Every time he thought of the woman, he loved to picture the way she took control even though by the end of the night he had taken it back. He was always the laid back one out of his brothers however he had always, no matter what, had a sense of control. With her, it all seemed to dissappear, melting into the back of his mind. She was perfect.

He daydreamed for a while, staring at the white coloured walls before remembering to check the time. He grabbed his phone off of the nightstand and Sean's eyes bulged when he realised how late it was. It read 10:45 am. He hadn't even texted Owen or Gabe to tell them he was safe. Owen would be so mad later but that was later, right?

Sean wasn't really that drunk last night and remembered it all pretty well. She was gorgeous and he had to admit that he'd probably never be able to forget her.

Despite it being creepy, he was glad that when she fell asleep and her phone was open, he took the opportunity to save his number. Whether she'd use if of not was a whole other story.

Sometimes he wondered if he'd ever get married. He definitely wanted kids and his team had discussed sharing someone. As much as he loved the idea, and fully wanted it to happen. Who would date fourteen people? They were all so different and overpowering in general, it just didn't seem likely to him.

He got up and went into the ensuite,warming up the shower whilst looking at himself in the mirror. He was naked which meant he could see the trail of love bites that littered his chest, further venturing across his abdomen and upper thighs. And although it sounded narcissistic, they looked artistic and he liked the way they looked on him.

The man had showered and was splayed across the bed when he saw the note left no doubt by Violet. He chuckled as he read it at how obviously awkward she must've found the whole situation and smiled a bit at how adorable it was. She was adorable.

And holy fuck was she sexy as hell.

There was something else about her that just made her so powerful, he didn't know what it was but was definitely hoping to find out.

He decided that he'd stressed his brothers out enough and ended up leaving the hotel. He passed the same employee from the night before an dthey shared an awkward smile which was really more of a grimace.

He realised he'd have to take a taxi to the house as Luke drove yesterday. As he got into the taxi, he couldn't help the wistful smile that spread across his face as he remembered her blissed out face yesterday as she stared up at him.

Sean had zoned out for most of his journey home thinking about yesterday's events only to pause slightly as he recalled never telling anyone from his team about him staying back. They were probably worried but he'd call it revenge as they left him alone at a club.

Shaking himself out of his Violet -induced daze, he payed the driver and thanked him before stepping out and staring at the large house before him. They'd originally lived in seperate apartments bug after the merge 2-3 years ago, his team decided to move in with one another.

He opened the door with one hand and peeked round the corner timidly, Owen was a sneaky ninja when he wanted to be.

After breathing a sigh of relief, sean started to creep through the hall and up the large staircase before entering his room which was the first to the right.

He had just closed the door, keeping his movements silent and turned to put his bag on the ground when he caught eyes with Owen sitting on his bed with blank expression and crossed arms. Fuck.

Holy cow he felt like he was a teenager again, caught sneaking in to his own home was quite embarrassing.

He must've reacted accordingly with a sharp inhale and sheepish expression as he had seen Owen's expression falter into a slight grin before regaining his sternness. He only needed to raise an eyebrow before Sean told him what he was doing.

Their dynamic had changed rapidly to throughout the years however he knew he'd have scared Owen by not even leaving a text with one of the others and he did feel bad. The whole bed thing did feel like slight overkill though.

"I was at the hospital and then I wasn't and then I was being dragged to a club, right? And then I was alone, saw the most absolutely gorgeous girl IN A SUIT, Owen! We talked and we stayed in a hotel for a bit and then I forgot to speak to you guys,so here I am." He said this in a rushed and confused tone, it all came out a rather awkwardly.

Owen looked as though he was going to speak before Sean's attention was grabbed by his phone buzzing. He grinned hoping it was his honey pie. Sugarplum? Soulmate? Anything sweet could work as a name for her- Mrs Green. He liked that especially.

He saw her texting him and asking who it was before deciding to mess with her a little bit, last night still playing non-stop through his head. The man was snapped out of his inner musing by Owen smacking the back of his head and walking out of the room.

Around fifteen minutes later, he was found staring at his phone with a small smirk.

A/n Okay, I'm so sorry this took so long I just couldn't figure out what to write... leading from this, I don't necessarily like how this chapter flowed however the next chapter might be better(?) I'm not sure on my representation of sean since he is one of my favourites- I don't think I really presented his playful nature to its full extent. However I think this will help me show some development of their comfort within their later relationship.

Let me know some of your thoughts on how to possibly improve it or if there is a specific direction you'd like me to go in x
