My mother, sisters and Skylar had gone out a few minutes after we got back. I didn't dare think about where they were going since I already had a feeling I knew what they were buying. My dad led me to my room where I immediately dropped to the bed.
"Take a shower Andrew. Then you can get some rest. After you wake up we'll start training." My dad said. I nodded my head and watched him close the door before I disappeared into the bathroom. I took my shower and changed into some different clothes before I went and fell onto my bed.
"I came to take my shirt back." Noah said. I grunted and listened to his moves. Once the door closed I let my body relax. Sleep was starting to hit as it gently began dragging me into its dark abyss. Despite me wanting to get up and actually put a shirt on, I chose not to move. I was willing to welcome sleep with open arms and allow it to drag me deep into its darkness. It was a welcoming feeling that I had grown to love since it was the only way my body could heal faster with the wolfsbane in my system. Everyone knew that even when all the wolfsbane is out my hair will still be white. But it didn't matter as I fell into the dark abyss called sleep.

Skylar's POV
His mother showed me to his room and helped me put everything away. That was when we noticed the skinny boy passed out on the bed. He had shorts on and he was sprawled out across the bed. You could tell by his upper body rising and falling that he was perfectly fine. His white hair was a mess and his lips were parted slightly. You could clearly see his scars but it had become something natural about him that I was fond of. Anyone could tell he had muscle but wasn't as big as he could be. After all, that group had held him captive for ten years. He wasn't as skinny as he used to be either.
"I've never seen his body so relaxed. Maybe being home was just what he needed." His mother said. I nodded as I stare at my mate's body. He looked so peaceful in this state and I loved it.
"Is he awake?" I heard his father ask.
"No. Why?" His mom asked.
"He stayed awake long enough to come up here, shower, put clothes on and let Noah get his shirt. He's been asleep for nearly three hours." His dad said.
"Relax. If you don't get to his training today you can start it tomorrow. Let the boy rest. He needs it." His mother said. I walked to the closet and got me some clothes before heading to the bathroom. Andrew didn't have too bad of an idea. I showered quickly before I got out and dried off. I changed then walked out and gently moved him over so I could lay on the bed too. His parents had left and closed the door behind them, leaving me alone with the white haired boy.
"You're back." He mumbled but kept his eyes closed. I hummed in response as his arm went around me. He moved to where his body was practically on top of mine with his head practically on my shoulder. He relaxed more and his hot breath caressed the skin on my neck. His deep and even breathing patterns returned and I knew he was asleep again. I slowly wrapped my arms around his shoulders and let my eyes fall close.
He moved around a bit, trying to get comfortable again as he stretched. His arm went around me again and he settled down again. I allowed my body to relax in his hold and followed his lead. I let myself fall into the open arms of sleep.

"Andrew, dinner." The annoying voice of Noah sounded. I felt Andrew move to get up but tightened my hold on him. I was comfortable and I wasn't ready to get up. I liked just laying here with my mate and feeling the sparks that ignited on our skin to skin contact.
"Skylar says no." Andrew said as he got comfortable again. I felt happy knowing I had just won against Noah in something. It proved that there are some things that mates can control.
"I don't care what your mate says. You need to eat and it's dinner. Now come on." Noah said. Andrew groaned but made no move to get up. Maybe I actually did win this.
"Wake her up then." Andrew mumbled. I heard a frustrated growl come from Noah. I could feel his body heat get closer to my arm.
"Touch me and I'll cut your finger off." I said.
"Yeah, whatever. Let go of Andrew so he can come downstairs and eat." Noah said. I opened my eyes and saw his glare set on my arms that were wrapped around Andrew. I looked at my skinny mate and moved my arms.
"It's up to him now." I said. I put my hands behind my head with a smile bt earned an annoyed growl from Andrew. I looked to see Noah poking Andrew in the ribs while Andrew swatted his hand away.
"Okay I'm up. Leave me alone." Andrew said. Noah poked him again causing the white haired boy to shoot up and chase after his best friend. I noticed a shirt on a hanger that hung from the closet door. I grabbed the shirt and followed the two wolves downstairs.
"I forgot my shirt." I heard Andrew say. I held out the shirt just as he came into view. He grinned and took it, pulling it over his head before picking me up and carrying me off in a direction.
"I can walk you know." I said.
"I know. I just don't care." He said. I shook my head but wrapped my arms around his neck and allowed him to take me to where we would be having dinner.
