Ian's fist was shaking and his eyes were now almost completely black.

"Ian?" I stared at him unsure of what to do. "Are you mad at me?"

He got up and came and sat next to me. He pulled me into a tight hug.

"I'm sorry if scared you. I'm not mad at you."

Tears began to well up in my eyes. "You're not?"

He pulled away to look at me. "No of course not why would I be?"

"Cause..I don't know.."

"Evan." He pulled my head up so I was looking him in the eyes which were now softer still darker than normal but they'd lighten a bit. "Whatever that piece of shit did to you doesn't change how lovely and amazing you are. It also doesn't change how much I care about you, how much I love you."

He pulled me back into a hug.

"I'm sorry."

"For what?" I asked.

"I'm sorry I wasn't there to protect you and that the you had to go through that."

"Ian..."

"Yeah?"

"Thank you for always protecting me." I gave him a light kiss on the lips and hugged him again.

He held me for a few more minutes before he pulled away.

"What do you say to us taking this food home, reheating it and watching a movie?" He smiled.

"Yes please."

On the way back to Ian's place we stopped by an ice cream shop and got a large shake to share.

We piled into the kitchen and reheated our food.

"You're right these pancakes are good!" I said stuffing more into my mouth.

"Here try mine." He held up his fork and I happily ate off of it.

"Ohh that's yummy too."

"Now your turn." I held up my fork, He grabbed my hand to steady the fork and ate it.

"That's pretty good."

"Thank you for today..Sorry about the um well incident."

"Don't worry about it." He took a sip of our shake. "Hey you got something right here." Ian placed a bit of the shake onto my lips.

"That's cold!" I went to remove it but he grabbed my hand stopping me.

"Sorry I'll warm it up." He leaned down and licked the ice cream off and them slid his tongue into my mouth kissing me. He pulled me closer and placed my hand onto his neck, he then grabbed my waist and lifted me up. I wrapped my legs around his waist.

"Eww get a room!"

I jumped a bit startled I looked behind me, Bell and Micheal were standing there holding hands but Bell had a cheesy smile on her face.

"Technically I own all the rooms here." Ian said shooting them a glare.

"Hey Ian since everyone's here maybe we should talk about introducing them." Micheal said.

I looked at Ian. "Introducing us to who?"

"The pack."

"Um...so me and Bell will have to meet everyone in your um..pack?" I asked. That sounds so weird out loud.

"Eventually. There's some things to consider."

"Like what?" Bell said crossing her arms and looking at Micheal.
