Asher's POV
"Hi" I peak into the twins' room nervously. "Hey, cousin" Ivy smiles, petting the cat resting on her stomach. "Where's Iris?" I asked stepping into the room. "With Emerald doing who knows what, so I'm babysitting their child" she smiles proudly, tapping Zuzu's head.
"Can we talk" I try to get straight to the point "Uh sure," she sits up bringing the kitten to her lap. "What about? Are you having boy troubles?" She whispers as I get onto her bed. "Oh no, are you- uh by any chance having... girl troubles?" I mumbled looking at my hands.
"Do you know?" She asks looking the other way. "I don't know anything... I think that you and Kiara like each other" I admit getting the confidence to look back up. She smiles with a nod. "We kissed" she brought her hand to her lips quickly bringing it back down.
"I haven't been able to talk to her since. She seems scared, mad, and just disappointed in herself. I don't know what to do. I brought up telling you guys about us and she panicked wanting to be some stupid perfect robot of a daughter" she growls squeezing her fist shut.
"I know what you mean, we were pretty good friends until suddenly she said we couldn't hang out anymore" I explain. "It's her parents they're doing something to her! I just know it and you won't believe it, but when I went to mom and asked her about Granger she froze. Apparently, our parents knew her mom!" She shouts. The cat jumps from her lap in fright, quickly sprinting out of the room.
"Sorry Zuzu" she calls with a chuckle. "One of us is going to talk to her, I just can't live knowing she might hate me" Ivy continued running a hand through her hair.
"I don't know if she'll stop and listen to me" I mumble. "You're right, but I don't want to force myself onto her and she won't tell me what her parents have done... trust me I've tried" she grumbles.
I scoot over pulling her into a hug. "Then don't force her to tell you anything just make sure you guys are okay. Ivy, you don't like anyone, yet you are genuinely worried for her, that means something" I persuade her.
With a deep sigh she nods "When I talk to her I'll make sure to bring you up, and hopefully you can fix your friendship" she chuckles releasing me from the hug. "Hey if you guys make up can I invite her to my birthday picnic?" I whisper looking up to her with as much hope as I could.
"Even if we don't makeup, if she makes you happy... invite her Asher. You deserve it." She reassures me. "I couldn't do that to you, but thank you though!" I smile standing from her bed. "Asher do what's best for you" Ivy belts out and I turn to her. "What do you mean?" I ask.
"Don't let anybody control you, don't let anybody get down on you, for all of us just continue to be the kind cutie you are" she gives me a kind smile and I shake my head yes vigorously.
"Of course!" I smile giving her a thumbs up. "Good" she chuckles laying onto her back. "Now leave me to make a plan" she grumbles to herself. I book it out of the room my mood completely lifted. I did it! I talked to someone about their feelings! I might have even helped!
"And where do you think you're running to?" Atlas suddenly asks grabbing me from behind. He put empathize on the word run which means I had been caught. "Nowhere in particular" I whisper.
Leaning over he goes to my ear. "You know I haven't had cuddles in a bit" he murmurs before kissing my neck. "Atlas we're in the hallway" I mumble and he nods. "Don't run then" he laughs releasing my hips.
I quickly spin myself around to face him. "Your cut is better" I try to change the subject reaching up to trace my finger over the faded mark on his forehead. His hand lightly grabs my wrist bringing his lips to my hand. "You, my Angel are changing the subject" he catches on immediately.
"Well besides me running do you need something?" I question him. "Mhmm" he hums returning his hands to his favorite spot on me. My waist. "And what is that?" I ask looking up at him. "You" he smirks leaning down for a kiss.
"Atlas leave your boyfriend alone" uncle Harry shouts. I pull away, looking at him embarrassed. "That makes no sense why would I leave my boyfriend alone!" He shouts back. I hate when we're caught kissing it's so embarrassing.
"Fine, then stop being a pervert to your poor boyfriend!" He lectures him as Atlas groans into my ear. "Yeah yeah I won't" he jokes getting a look from his Papa. "Asher if you need somebody to save you tell me, I'll wake Jax up" he chuckles his husband coming out off the dining room.
"I'm okay" I giggle. Not even a minute later uncle Dray has his arms wrapped around my other uncles waist. "I see where you get it from" I mumble to myself. Atlas seemed to have heard because he squeezed my hips with a chuckle.
"See he's fine, I'm not that mean" Atlas smiles resting his chin on top of my head. "What are we talking about," Draco asks nuzzling his face into Harry's neck. "Nothing love I'm just joking with our son and his adorable boyfriend" Harry smiles goofily before giving us both a look.
I blush as Atlas's dad sighs "don't remind me" he murmurs. I hope he's joking I can never really tell. "Okay, that's enough chit chat" Atlas pipes in taking my hand. "I'm snatching this one and leaving" he calls as I get a small wave from Harry.
I'm dragged into Atlas's room and he closes the door behind me. "Is there a real reason you needed me?" I ask bringing my hand to his cheek. He nods into my touch with a sigh.
"Atlas look at me" I whisper and he opens his eyes. "You look tired, is it the nightmares are they back?!" I bring my other hand to his cheek forcing him to look at me. He nods sadly. "Why didn't you tell me... I haven't slept in your room in weeks! Have you been getting any sleep!?" I ask his gaze flickering down to the floor.
"Every once in a while with EJ and Gray" he smiles. I take my hands from his cheeks and pull him onto the bed. "Actually no- go get in comfortable clothes" I order him now pushing him off.
"Yes sir" he chuckles walking into his closet. A few minutes later he peaks his head out with a giddy grin. "Angel do you want a shirt?" He asks. "Yes please," I answer almost immediately.
A few more minutes and Atlas comes back with a pair of sweats throwing one of his shirts to me. Timidly I take my shirt off throwing his on over me as fast as I could. As Atlas jumps onto the bed I stand setting my shirt on his nightstand. Stripping from my jeans as well leaving me in my boxers.
Going back to my boyfriend I crawl over to him while he stared at me in awe. "Go to bed, I'll be right here" I whisper and attempt to reassure him. "Will you get in my lap?" He asks his tone serious making my face become a new shade of crimson.
"N-no! You need to sleep" I tell him again trying to push his heavy self down. He chuckles pulling me into his lap anyway. "Okay now I'll lay down" he grumbles laying back bringing me with him.
I sigh laying my head onto his chest my legs on either side of him. Trailing my fingers over his shoulder I look back up to him. "I love you" I whisper my plain eyes meeting his. "I love you too" he smiles followed by a yawn.
He shut his eyes and I immediately went back to massaging his chest and shoulder. Soon his breathing steadies and I assume he's asleep. Sitting up to readjust myself. I kiss his shoulder before laying my head higher up on his chest laying my arms over his shoulders.
He should have told me sooner I would have been able to help. With little movement, Atlas moves his arms wrapping them around my back. I look up making sure he was still asleep. Only relaxing when I'm positive he is.
Maybe he didn't trust me. I can't think like that! He wouldn't want me to. I'll watch him better I can't be the only one these people ever worry about. I'll also check on Iris too!
"I'm going to take care of you too"
