Atlas's POV

My room is suppose to be my escape from the outside world of all my siblings and 'cousins' it never actually works that way. I groan as the door gets thrown open and quickly slammed shut.

"Sorry that was loud" my favorite person stammers making me suddenly happy to be barged in on. "It's all good. What's up?" I call as he sheepishly walks forward. "Can I rant to you?" He mumbles looking to his feet. "I'm a little bit mad..." he adds surprising me.

"You mad? Well I wanna hear this! Come here" I sit up patting my lap. His face lights up and he speeds over jumping onto my bed with a giggle. Bloody hell he's so cute.

Crawling into my lap he straddles me once again... still not fucking use to this. I scoot back leaning against my headboard, as he runs a hand through his curls. "I told you about me going to make friends... well I forgot about winter break, and now they are going to forget about me, and it makes me very very upset!" He rants sulking in my lap.

"How could I forget about winter break! I woke up ready to go to school prepared to speak to humans, but nope we have winter break!" He pouts letting his head fall on to my shoulder.

I bring my hands to their usual spots on his back, rubbing random patterns. Trying to calm him down.  "If they're friends, or if they are going to be good friends they will remember you, and I don't think I've met somebody who's complained about winter break" I laugh as he sighs into my shoulder.

"Well Seren did once" I correct myself making him smile.  "I'm sorry... I lost my temper" he apologized placing his hands on my chest to look up to me.  "You call that losing your temper.... have you met me?" I try to remind him of how much of a violent person I really am, cough cough that bastard Reggie.

"I have met you actually" he jokes leaning back some.  "Hey can I have a kiss on the cheek I haven't gotten one in forever" I whine.  He sticks his tongue out before turning to make an escape.

"Hey!" I pout, he sits across the bed, away from me.  "Please" I add and he stays still pretending to ponder his options.  "Okay" he giggles crawling back over to me.  I watch him as he gets back on to his knees leaning up to leave a small warm kiss on my cheek.

My heart had completely lifted.  He was so adorable and his little kisses. I couldn't help but wonder what his lips would feel like on mine.   Ash wraps his arms around my shoulders our eyes meeting. 

Licking my lip I can't stop myself from taking a quick glimpse of his.  Leaning in a bit he doesn't seem to move, and I move forward even more- with a bang my door flies open.  I pull away with a groan, Asher still frozen.  What the fuck did I just do...

"What!" I shout tilting to the side to see Emerald in the doorway panting.  "They're here!" She shouts bouncing.  "Really!?" I smile already sliding off the bed.  "Yeah!" She laughs before running away.

"W-what's going on?" Asher stutters making me feel awful.  "My parents are back we're going to find out the gender!" I smile holding my hand out for him. He takes it as we walk down the hall arriving just as the door opens.

We all stand awakwardly waiting for the news.  The appointment took a lot longer than I expected considering I've been to a few with them.  Ash squeezes my hand as both of my parents step in pulling off their coats. 

Herb closes the door slowly his eyes never leaving the couple.  The only thing wrong with the scene, was his eyes, they were full of worry?  Looking up to my parents faces, both of them with teary eyes.... oh no.
