"I wonder if my toaster is waterproof" Samuel questions tapping his finger on Kol's kitchen table causing me to pull away from the kiss, giggling at his words.

"My god Samuel you're such a cockblock" Kol glares at him, "And you like to rub your cuteness in my face. We are even, Stevens." Samuel smirks nodding his head way too proud at his own joke.

I can't help but smile as they banter, my heart filling with joy. A feeling I haven't known in years, one I thought would never happen again. I quickly take out my phone wanting to snap a picture of this moment.

I grab Kol's hand, putting it in my lap as I stare at his ring, the one that matches mine slowly trailing the veins in his hand.

Such a nice hand.

"Stevens can you stop looking at her like you want to fuck her right here, right now" Samuel says, pretending to vomit. "No." Kol retorts quickly causing my cheeks to redden, "Kol!" I exclaim, lightly smacking his arm. He gives me a quick kiss on the cheek, patting my thigh twice "I'll be right back, gotta piss." okay, thanks for letting me know? I only give him a nod.

"Okay is he gone?" Samuel asks popping his head up from under the table, "Uh, yea?"

"Fill me in on everything!" giving me his full attention, I give him the rundown minus the part where I was going to have a reunion with my dear older sister. Samuel has been very supportive of our relationship, I think he even knew before we did.

My fathers trial is in a few days, oh shit. I had forgotten bout that.

"Samuel." I say, slight sadness evident in my voice. "Yea, Phoney?" He had stopped calling me that randomly, now only using it in times where I seem down or sad, too cheer me up.

"The things you're going to learn about me, hear and s-see during the trial" a stray tear escapes my eye, I want to tell him but I can't bring myself to go through all the details. Hell, Kol doesn't even know every single detail. "I'm sorry you'll have to hear it that way but I just, I can't" I look at him, hoping he can see how much I wish I was strong enough to tell him. 

"It's okay, just please don't cry. I don't like seeing you cry and Stevens might literally kill me" he says, giving me a playful smile instantly making me feel better. I quickly wipe away my tear just as Kol reappeared. "Reid, did you make my girl cry?" Kol's deadly tone sends a shiver down my spine, "Stevens, I would rather run in a field of blade and then stick my feet in lemon juice than ever make Persephone cry." He retorts

Damn, that's some serious shit.

"As much as I would love to sit here and get my ass beat, Oliver is expecting me" he flips his nonexistent hair over his shoulder, "have fun! And wear protection"

"I should be saying that to you" he gives me a subtle wink before glaring at Kol "I'm serious. I don't want any little Stevens running around anytime soon"

"I make no promises Samuel, you have seen her right?" he whistles lowly as he switches his attention to me "i gotta go study" I point towards the stairs and run their laughs echoing throughout the house

How can glass be a liquid if it's hard? Fucker I don't know. Rubbing my head in frustration as my pencil breaks, looking around I realize I don't have a pencil sharpener. "Im gonna take a shower, you good?" Kol asks gesturing at the desk.
