I wake up to a foreign weight on me and freeze, it takes a couple of seconds for me to remember where I am and whose heavy ass is pinning me to the bed. I lay there and remember everything and as my mind runs over that kiss I softly gasp. At the sound, there is movement on the bed and then a thump behind me. Jock's nose appears followed by eyes and he stares at me with a questioning expression I somehow can tell. I have nothing to say though as I am already somewhat overwhelmed by everything I remember. After figuring out where all Nathans's limbs are I realize I am pinned under his arm and leg and he is snuggled into my side on top of the covers, so not only am I stuck under him but also the covers and I understand how it was the heat of them together that woke me. I slide from under the covers and his hand ends up cupping my boob as I move away, I freeze and wait. When nothing happens I keep scooting and eventually, I get my feet on the ground and toss my hands up in the air like an accomplished acrobat.
Josh makes a huffing sound that reminds me of laughing and I giggle along with him. He trots to the door and softly whines, I open the door for him forgetting about the endless black abyss for a second before I watch Jock's butt disappear and I immediately panic before realizing there is now a garden-type area outside the door. I watch Jock do his business and then start smelling everything around him. As there is nowhere for him to actually go I leave the door open and decide to investigate later. This bitch needs breakfast before I deal with anything or I'm going to lose my mind with everything trying to bubble up in my mind screaming for attention.
Switching the kettle on and hoping it is somewhat quiet I start setting up my cup. I then check through the cupboards and find the ingredients for my mum's pancakes, I gather the eggs, sugar, flour, and milk and beat them together. Once ready I enjoy the normalcy or drinking a cuppa and making pancakes as I used to when my mum was running late or needed a pancake pick-me-up. They were not a common dish in our home, they were only made when we wanted to spend some time together or to celebrate something. Making pancakes was our special thing but right now I just need something normal.
Once everything is finished, cleaned up, and put away. I take the pancakes and a fresh cuppa back to the table and I sit down with a sigh. I smile at a now awake Nathan and just sit and eat. He smiles back, makes himself a coffee, and then sits and eats pancakes too. I don't even twitch when Trent pops in with a huge cup of coffee and takes the last chair before stuffing an entire pancake in his mouth and groaning. Nathan almost leaped out of his chair when Trent appeared but he stayed put and is now eating with a focus that would put any army Sargeant to shame. Trent eyes Nathan but says nothing, doesn't even smirk just watches him with caution and a hint of worry I can somehow make out in his eyes.
Once the pancakes are finished, I take the plate back and wash it while refreshing my cup and everyone else's. I turn and sigh when I see that Nathan is still doing his very best to pretend that Trent isn't here. I walk back to my chair and turn over their late-night kiss in my mind trying to see how I can help. Sitting I stare at them both and I am pretty sure if I tried to bring up the kiss Nathan would bolt out the door hoping for the Abyss. He doesn't look mentally capable of dealing with the whole male attraction thing right now. He is a sitting statue and looks like he is already halfway off his chair. Deciding to jump into this conversation I would rather also run from, I pull up my big girl panties in my mind, do i few fists throws in my mind to pump myself up, and stare straight at Trent, he sits up straight and stops glancing at Nathan every two seconds.
"So I am your mate. I am guessing it is a lot like what I have read in books? Destined mate, the one and only, till death do-us-part sort of thing? I have to tell you, right this second being someone's wife essentially is really not where I am mentally or emotionally. You are seriously attractive and all which we all know, but I don't know you. You may have kidnapped us for the right reasons in the wrong way but I am not about to jump into bed with you, do you understand?"
