Chelsea

I woke up to the sound of rain on the roof, I smiled rolling over in my bed. It was about 8 or 9 in the morning, I pulled myself out of bed to get ready for the day.

I decided to pack a few of my things, I wouldn't be able to take everything with me but I wanted to get a start on it.

After I was satisfied I made my way down to breakfast and was soon joined by Amelia, she sat next to me with two large plates of pancakes and bacon. She pushed one over to me, I went to complain, when her little face was riddled with worry. I sighed pulling the plate to me and started to eat in silence.

"Thank you," I said smiling at her, she returned the smile and gave me a side hug in our chairs.

After finishing my meal I decided to go and check on Loey, much to my excitement Marcel was here, accompanied by Seralina.

Aria huffed when she noticed Seralina standing beside her mate, I wasn't too happy about it either.

Mine, she stated

I agree.

"Morning," I said reverting my eyes to Loey, I tried not looking at Marcel as I could already feel the jealousy building. Why couldn't he have just come here alone?

He did look and smell incredible, did must have done a  workout this morning there was something about his scent which made him even more irresistible.

I exhaled quickly closing the door making my way to her other side away from them.

"Chelsea, thank you for coming back," her eyes lit up as she saw me smiling.

"I wasn't going to leave you! You would be so bored in here alone," I gestured to the room, she nodding, "that's for sure."

Her eyes moved back to Marcel and Seralina, "was there anything else you wanted to know?"

He had a notebook out taking notes, "that should be all, thank you for being so open and willing to help."

"Not at all, I trust Chelsea and I owe her my life, I want to help all of the other women and children as much as I can."

The room fell silent for a moment as I looked up to Marcel, his eyes were glued to mine. What was he thinking now? He wasn't being inconspicuous at all. I chewed the inside of my cheek, gosh this is awkward.

I looked down at my hands as I fumbled with my fingers, looking back up glancing at Loey and then Seralina trying to even out my viewing time to remove suspicion.

Seralina brushed her elbow into Marcels arm nudging him, I clenched my jaw, he is mine she can't just rub herself against him.

Marcel slowly shifted crossing around the bed to me, he pulled me against him encasing me in his arms. He had dropped his guard very quickly, was I the cause? This could get us into trouble if he couldn't keep it together. Placing his face in my hair he took a deep breath, I smelt his scent and all of my worries slipped away. 

"We might have talked about you a little," Loey smirked.

He kissed the top of my head, "aww, arent you two adorable," Sera cooed I felt Marcel shift his head to look at her from my hair.

"Shh, we can't get exposed Sera, so keep it to yourself, but yes, this is my happy place," he nuzzled me closer to him, I felt him kiss my hair.

We are his happy place Aria howled,

I couldn't help but smile I felt the same way. We just understood each other and talking came easily, it's like we were completely made for one another.
