His eyes seemed to almost blacken at my comment. Desire mixed with raw emotion and need. He starred down my eyes, then down my nose, lips, and eventually reaching my throat.

He slightly bit his lip which caused my cheeks to redden even further. I think at this point me and him both knew what we wanted but only our actions would tell.

He leaned in slowly, my eyes starting to close as the distance between us was no more.

His lips colliding with mine with such fierceness. His other hand going up to my cheeks to hold me in place. I reached up in his soft brown locks and slightly pulled on them.

He groaned into my touch, slipping his tongue in my mouth. Letting our tongues fight for dominance.

"Oh shit!"

Without notice, Anne and Ominis had come through the front door, not even hearing the sound of the wind or snow blow the door open due to being too involved in each other. We pulled away immediately hearing Anne's voice.

Ominis was next to Anne in the door way, his eyes looking down at the floor in shame as he just caught us doing the one thing he was hoping we wouldn't.

Guilt flashed through my body almost like a kick in the gut, causing me to sit up immediately and rush away from Sebastian.

"Oh im so sorry I didn't-"

"Didn't think to knock Anne!" Sebastian groaned.

Silence fell in between the four of us. Anne sighed heavily as she shut the door behind them quietly. "I'm sorry Sebastian.... For everything."

He frowned at her, realization coming over him that she wasn't just referring to us getting caught but the conversation that had played out earlier.

"We'll discuss it later." He said short.

"Im going to get going, it's getting late." Ominis spoke up.

My eyes shot up as he mentioned leaving.

"Are you sure you don't want to spend the night Ominis? We have room." Anne said hopeful.

He shook his head as his eyes followed to Sebastian. "I think it would be best if I get back to the castle. I don't want to intrude on anything further."

A stab to my heart like a gunshot to a wound opened at his comment. Knowing it was directed at me and Sebastian. I felt the tears brim my eyes.

"As you wish, mate. Get back safe would you?" Sebastian asked, standing up and going to his front door.

"I will. Merry Christmas, all of you."

His eyes searched around the room till they landed on me. Giving me a short smile as he headed back out into the cold.

"Merry Christmas Ominis." I whispered under my breath, as I heard the door finally shut. Hoping in some way he heard me.

When the door had closed I almost couldn't contain the tears that were about to shed down my face.

"If it's okay with you two... I think I'd like to wash up."

"Ofcourse, it's just down the hall on the right. Would you like me to-"

"Thanks Sebastian but I think I can manage."

Before he could answer back my feet swiftly went down the hallway. My hand running down the wall til I found the door to the wash room. The light flicked on showing a small and petite yellow bathroom. Nothing special other than a pedal stool sink, toliet and a squeaky clean tub with all the toiletries on the side. Everything was in place, perfect, simple.

I felt the tears run as my back slid down the side of the door. Gripping my hair, a sob escaping me. Why can't my feelings be as simple as this room. Why can't my love be as comforting as the warm towel after a bath. Why can't it be.

POV Sebastian

"What the fuck was that Sebastian!" Anne yelled in a hushed tone.

I frowned at her as my back hit the back of the couch.

"I have no idea what your talking about."

"Bullshit Sebastian Sallow. I know you better than that. There is something going on between you three and I want to know what the hell it is!"

I sighed heavily, "it's none of your damn business Anne."

We both looked up hearing the small sobs down the hallway. The small light underneath the door covered by the shadow, knowing she was sitting on the floor.

I felt the guilt grip me, she was here crying on Christmas Eve and there was nothing I could do.

Anne eyes perked up at the noise as she started to walk in the direction of the hallway. I got up quickly, running after her as I caught her arm.

"What the hell are you-" Anne whispered loudly.

"Leave her damn it."

Anne's eyes glared at me, throwing my hand off her.

"What in Merlin is wrong with you! She's obviously upset and you just expect me to sit here while she cries on Christmas Eve!"

I grabbed her arm and pulled her in the kitchen. Her gripping the whole time till we reached the familiar room.

"What the fuck Sebastian spill it!"

I bit the inside of my cheek. Worried how much information to give her and how it might affect her.

"Now!" She yelled.

"Fine! Fine.... God you are impossible." I sighed heavily, leaning on the counter for support. "I told her I love her."

Anne's eyes lit up the size of the moon, a smile appearing on her face.

She ran up and hugged me, squeezing me to death.

"Oh Sebastian about bloody time! I'm so happy for you!"

"Shut up would you! Do you want her to hear you!" I said pulling her back.

"But wait..... what does that have to do with Ominis..."

Her eyes searched mine for answers till her mouth was covered with her hand in shock.

"He doesn't... does he?" She asked.

I didn't answer her which was enough for her to know the answer to her own question.

"Oh no Sebastian. Oh for Merlin's sake...."

She bit her finger nails as she began to pace the kitchen floor.

"Does she know and does she feel the same way?"

I sighed heavily. "Yes."

Anne's eyes seemed to gloss over as she began to take in the new information.

"Sebastian what are you going to do?"

"The only thing I can do.... Win her over."
