I stumbled out from the closet and into the swarm of people. Well, there wasn't that many people, but the basement wasn't very big.
"Girl, where have you been! I was getting worried!" Jordan popped up in front of me with her hands on her hips.
"Uh...no where really," I lied. "Um, aren't Rob and Shane fighting again?"
"Ugh, they're always fighting about something," she said, rolling her eyes. "thank god Cameron came when he did. He broke them up and took them upstairs for a time out."
We both chuckled as we took our time up the stairs. As soon as we walked through the door, quickly shutting it behind us so the music didn't leak out, we saw Cameron scolding the Rob and Shane and broke out into another fit of giggles.
Once I recovered, I glanced up to see Cameron smirking at me. He shook his head, trying not to laugh, gave a quick wink, and then went back to consoling Rob and Shane.
I took a big gulp and then looked at Jordan, who was talking a mile a minute as she walked away. Taking a few big steps to catch up with her, we made it down the hall to the lounge. It was secluded from the party so no one was in here.
Jordan flopped on to the couch and ripped off her heels. I followed and did the same.
Seeing Cameron again, and having the alcohol waring of, I thought about the 'love ya' statement he said. My heart sped up.
"Jordan?"
"Hmm?" she answers, eyes closed.
"When did Rob confess his love for you?" I ask.
"The first night we met when we got it on."
I gasped and quickly turned to glare at her. She popped an eye open and started laughing when she saw my reaction.
"Relax! We new we were mates and it was bound to happen sometime. I'm surprised Cameron didn't jump you when you first came in for that meeting."
"Haha...yea..." I say, remembering that night when he caught me in the hall instead.
"It obviously took you some time to get used to the idea. It must of drove Cameron crazy." She traced his mark on my neck.
"It still is..."I whispered to myself unintentionally.
"Huh? What was that?" Jordan snapped up, a bemused smile on her face.
"Nothing!"
"Nuh-huh! You said it still is so..." She figured it out and then burst into laughter. "That means you're still a virgin? Wow you hold strong! My hormones went insane when I saw Rob."
I glanced away embarrassed, my cheeks red. It's not like I don't want to...
I jumped when Jordan gasped. "Then..." she traced my mark again, "did he force...?"
"No! It was my choice, too!" I defended. "I marked him also."
"Aw baby girl! You're so innocent, I can't take it!" she squealed, tackling me in a hug.
"Jordan! Can't breath!" I gasped out.
She let go and giggled, "sorry!"
She sighed when I still didn't crack a smile. "look, if it makes you feel any better, I was a virgin when I met Rob."
"Really?" I asked. She nodded and gave me a reassuring smile.
"Don't be nervous. If you feel you love your mate, tell him."
"I will. Thankyou so much!" this time it was my turn to crush her in a bear hug.
"What's going on here?" someone chuckles. I loosen my hold on Jordan and turn towards the doorway.
Leaning against the wall, in all his sexiness, is a smirking Cameron. Next to him is Rob.
"Aw, why'd you stop them!" whines Rob. I hold in a laugh as Jordan rolls her eyes.
"Perv," Jordan mutters.
"Haha, you know you love me," Rob rushes over and wraps his long arms around Jordan's petite body. She giggles as he kisses up her neck.
I peek over my shoulder and blush when I see Cameron still smirking at me. His intense stare stirs up one emotion in particular.
My eyes tore from his when Jordan's head fell into my lap. I raise my hands away from my body when Rob then fell on her. They didn't seem to notice.
I carefully pull out from under them, quick to get away from their slobbery make-out session. I ran-skipped to Cameron, who was clutching his side as he cracked up laughter.
"Hey, not funny! I could of been killed!" I joked, but apparently it wasn't that funny.
Cameron straightened up with a serious look on his face. "don't joke like that," he stated firmly. I bowed my head in shame, a reflex when his voice hinted the Alpha part of him.
Glancing back shyly into his grey eyes, I couldn't help but notice his dirty blond hair not to far away. His hair now came to about his eyebrows, a slight wave to it.
"You need a haircut," I said, trying to break to tension. Though his intense stare was still directed at me (I don't even think he blinked), I lifted up a hand and gently ran it through his hair.
When he didn't make a move, I sighed and proceed to tug him into the kitchen. I feel like this will make him in a better mood again.
I unclasped my hand from his and searched through the fridge. After pulling out vanilla and chocolate ice cream, I rummaged through the cabinets for condiments.
"My dad and I used to make sundaes all the time when I was a kid. It was when Harper was just born and when he could find time away from his Alpha duties," I chuckled in remembrance. "he use to over flow my bowl with whooped cream."
Cameron's arm slipped around my waist as I made the sundaes. He laid a kiss on my forehead, as if hearing the sadness in my voice.
My lips quirked into a slight smile. "I'm okay," I said, blinking back the tears. "Now I'm here with you and I've gotten better, Harper and my mom included." I turned to face him, both his arms now clasped around my waist.
I held out a sundae in front of him, carefully not to drop it between us.
"Why thankyou," he accepted the ice-cream and took a bite. His eyes went wide, "mmmmm," he slurped up the rest of the bowl while I was only half way done with mine.
Once he lifted his head from the bowl, I giggled. He looked at me confused and I pointed to his nose. Since he couldn't see, I quickly swooped up and licked the whooped cream off his nose.
"Whoa, am I interrupting something?"
Cameron and I both stopped our laughing fit to see who it was.
"Ok...uh, Cameron, we have to go now," Shane said. Cameron nodded firmly and looked back at me.
"What does that mean?" I asked, slightly ticked off. I swear if he ditches me for a second time tonight....
"Uh, We're doing a quick sweep of the border. I made it mandatory every night and morning as soon as I was made Alpha."
"So, this is going to be a regular thing? You're going to leave me every morning AND night?" I asked in disbelieve. Call me clingy but this she-wolf and now Luna needs to know.
"We go in shifts so no, I'm not doing this every night. This is the first shift so my betas and I are going."
"Oh..." I nodded in understanding, forming a 'o' with my mouth. "When are you going to be home?"
"I'm not sure. But I'll stop by at your place as soon as I'm done." Cameron gives me a kiss, his lips still sweet from the ice cream. I savor the taste and the feeling for a few seconds before he reluctantly pulls away. "Leave your door open," he winks and walks out of the room with Shane.
"Ugg!" I groan and toss the dishes in the sink.
Now what? I don't want to go back into the party by myself. And definitely not the basement party. That was a mistake the first time I went down.
I glanced at the clock. 11:33.
Might as well go home. A warm bath and then a cool bed sound very good right about now.
