We had gotten everyone into their own places, and the next three days we all worked. You worked on the wall, or you watched the kids, or you patrolled. On the fourth day of being here I woke up sore, and not in any fun way. All of us had been to tired by the end of the day to make a move on any of the flirting that had happened through the past few days.
Waking up between two men in the summer was becoming to much, and that gave me pause. I normally didn't wake up extremely hot and sweaty (sadly), because the air was always on. I took a second to look around the room, the only light is coming through the window, I reach over Seb who's between me and the light and flick the switch. Nothing.
Seb lets out a groan, and I feel a hand on my side. He frowns and cracks his eyes open. "Why are you hot and sweaty? Are you feeling okay?"
"Your hot and sweaty too." I point out running a finger along the side of his face where there's a sheen of sweat along his face. "The power went out over night."
"We should open all the windows then, air flow will help." Instead of letting me crawl out of bed, I'm pulled directly on top of him, his arms wrap around me. His eyes are closed again so I lean on one arm and tap his cheek.
"I need to get out of bed to do that." I get a frown for pointing out the obvious, and doesn't let me go so I decide on trying something else. It could go one of two ways. I lean forward, so close I know he felt my breath on his face. When his eyes slowly open just a little, I press forward just that little bit more and give him a soft kiss. His reaction was exactly what I expected from the shier one of the group. It woke him up and his hands around my waist lightened until his hands were just skimming along my hips. He didn't kiss me back much at first, until I took his chin in my hand and deepened it. The kiss is heavy and already being hot from the room temperature, doesn't last long. When I come up for air, I slip off of the bed.
"I wouldn't mind being woken up like that every morning." Seb says, still laying in bed, the cutest flush on his face. I let out a little laugh and move over to the window to open it. He suddenly sits up and gets out of bed. "I need to check Hunter, to much heat isn't good for baby's."
He's gone out the door before the seriousness of that sets in, and I have to stop myself from running out the bedroom door with him. Hunter was downstairs with Mato, Wyatt, Micah and Theo. It was already cramped in the living room with all of them, and having me hovering over Seb wouldn't help. I'll give him a few minutes to check on him.. and then I'll run down and hover. Yeah, that sounded good.
An hour later we confirmed the baby was okay, and the water still ran, so we all took turns in the shower. After when I just got finished getting dressed I come down the stairs to find North and Tyler. We were going to have to find a solution to the fact that him and Anthony couldn't stay with us, we were cramped in the townhouse as it. Between the two bedrooms, one bathroom we had myself, Mato, Micah, Wyatt, Seb, and Lex who already moved between sharing the bed with me, or sleeping in the living room, not to mention Hunter and Theo that also moves between the rooms. Then Casey and Sarah share the second bedroom, I had set that she would only have the room with Sarah. I wanted Casey to have a semi-private space for her to go to.
"I wish we had a bigger place for all of us." I mention, Mato puts a hand on my head.
"Patience, you'll have all your men." I roll my eyes at him, he leans down and gives me a quick peck of a kiss.
"I'm going to go check on things."
I cross my arms as he leaves the house, I turn to North who just gives me a smirk. "Waiting builds anticipation, baby."
I could feel the blush that wants to creep up to my face, I swear its not the fact that he called me baby, it's the way his voice sounds when he says it. And poor Tyler just looks at North perplexed, it seems like no ones talked about the fact that they all planned to date me. I couldn't tell if that hurt my feelings or not.
