When I came out of the bathroom I had 4 sets of eyes on me.
"Umm thanks again for letting crash on your couch" I say, hurrying over to shove my clothes back in my bag. It would have been just my luck for my bra or panties to make an appearance from the bundle in my arms and that was definitely not what I needed right now. I heard a throat being cleared before Toren spoke.
"We have blankets and a couple of pillows for you" he was rubbing the back of his neck and was that a blush? No, it could be.
"Thanks guys, I mean it" having secured my unmentionables I was starting to feel more comfortable. I hopped on the couch, grabbing one of the pillows and holding it to my chest. The house had a a mix of scents but but the pillow had a particularly strong winter and forest smell that felt oddly familiar. I couldn't stop myself from burying my face in it and take a deep breath. Yah great way to not be creepy Miren! I pulled the pillow away from my face hopping that the guys hadn't noticed me being a total creeper but judging from the grins they were all sporting I doubted it. I could feel the blush spread across my face.
"Well we will leave you to get some sleep" Toren stated, giving the twins a small shove. Ash followed them only to stop in front of me. Leaning down he whispered in my ear "that's my pillow, beautiful, and my scent" and with that left the room. I sat there for a moment trying to process his words. Then it hit, that's why I recognize the scent it was the same one from when Ash had carried me earlier that day. My face exploded in heat. How was I supposed to be friends with these guys when my hormones kept yelling at me to get on with the horizontal fun. Oh. My. GOD! I am a perv! How could I even imagine sleeping with four guys let alone all at once.
"Oh god!" I groaned "I'm going to die from embarrassment at this rate"but that didn't stop me from cuddling up around what I now knew was Ash's pillow and sleeping better than I could ever remember.
