Nick's Guide to Surviving High School

Chapter 24*

King's POV

"Ugh, turn off your fucking alarm."

I grabbed my phone and quickly turned off the alarm, rolling back over and pulling Nick into my arms. He groaned loudly, putting a weak hand on my chest and pushing away from me.

"Hurts," he whined out softly and I immediately distanced myself from him a little bit. I turned him around gently so that we could be chest to chest. He sighed softly and brought his body closer to mine.

I kissed his cheek, my hands wandering down to lightly massage his ass. He whimpered softly, his hips thrusting forward and brushing my thigh. It wasn't intended to be a sexual touch, but of course it was still intimate.

His head fell into my chest, his breaths evening out as I kept my hands planted firmly to his ass to try and alleviate some of the pain. Nick fell asleep pretty fast, but I couldn't.

I had a... problem.

You're such a horn dog. Nash teased with a smirk I could feel in his voice. I smiled softly, looking down at the sleeping boy nuzzled into me.

Not my fault. Last night was really something.

Yeah. Sure was.

I bit my lip, shaking my head quickly before I got an actual boner. It didn't really work, but I just ignored it. Eventually, I fell asleep.

When I woke up, the spot next to me was empty. I groaned groggily, wiping at my eyes while yawning dramatically. My eyes opened slowly, darting around the room to try and find my mate. When I didn't, I sat up in bed a bit. I was starting to get a little bit worried. What if he got kidnapped? Again?

Oh hell no. Now I was freaking out.

I rushed out of bed and went to the door. As my hand touched the door handle, it flew open. Nick blushed, his gaze going from my chest to further down before snapping up to my eyes.

"Where were you?" I asked frantically. Nick was still blushing, but he just pushed past me and set a tray by the bed. I didn't notice it before because I was too wound up, but he had made breakfast. My face softened a little at my adorable little mate who was shuffling his feet together while looking anywhere but me.

"Why are you naked? Put some damn clothes on, you caveman."

I snorted, keeping my eyes on Nick.

"Nothing you haven't seen before, baby."

He bit his lip and I growled lowly, stalking over to him and picking him up. He squealed, legs going around my waist to support himself as my hands slipped down to his clothed ass. Goddess I loved his ass.

Nick winced.

Right.

I carefully put him down on the bed and he shot me a grateful look before pulling on his shirt and pointing at my chest. I rolled my eyes and turned around, walking into the closet and tugging on some sweatpants. I left my torso bare and headed back out.

He nodded appreciatively and I rolled my eyes again.

You humans are weird. Being nude is a beautiful thing. Clothing is restricting and ugly.

Nash...Shut up.

Bite me.

I blocked him out, once again focusing on my mate who was shyly staring at me, a dark blush on his cheeks. I chose to ignore it. Only because Nick was sore. No matter how much I wanted to add to his pain, I couldn't.
