Chapter 6

Lachlan
No past or future here.

I was awoken on Saturday by screaming, not the normal sibling fighting over the cereal box screaming. All of my brothers and sister moved out of the house when I was young, this was full on yelling from what I assumed was my parents.

I stood and cracked my joints, rubbing my eyes in attempt to wake myself up. A soft sigh leaves me as I run a hand through my hair. The floor creaked loudly as I left the comfort of my bedroom, and the voices of my parents hushed. I quietly made my way downstairs, my mother smiling at me warmly.

"Sorry honey, did we wake you?"

"Mm," I mumble, walking over to the cappuccino machine we had and beginning to make myself a drink. "Not like it's anything new though. It is Saturday, correct?"

She nodded and my father entered the room, I rolled my eyes in response.

"Lachlan, someones here for you."

I raised an eyebrow at this, Who could be visiting this early? It can't Vik, seeing as he doesn't know where I live. I finish my cappuccino, taking the warm cup in my hands as I went to see who was at the front door.

I opened the oak door, instantly contacted with Preston's loud "Hello Lachlan!" and Rob telling him to shut up.

"Hey guys, what are you doing here?" I stepped aside, letting the two enter the living room and gently shutting the door.

"Hiya Lachy, nice job with not having a shirt. And we wanted to see how Vikklan went!" Preston grinned and laid across my couch, kicking his feet up on the coffee table.

"If you think we fucked, we didn't."

"Aw, you didn't lock the doors and turn on some romantic music and then leave your mark on little Vikky?" Rob grinned, laying across Preston's lap.

"Knowing him it'd switch to the Pokemon theme mid-fuck."

"Preston I swear to god- and no we did not fuck, he seems a bit to innocent to want to do it anyways."

Rob laughed softly, turning onto his side to face me. "Well, he'd probably want to fuck you at one point, you are attractive."

That earned him a slap to the face from Preston.

"That's Vik's job you trashcan!"

"Trashcan? Great insult Preston."

"Shut up Lachlan-"

"Anyways Lachlan, Preston and I want details. How did the first official vikklan date go? What happened?"

"It went good, some things happened. Like we attacked each other with cupcakes and I pulled a few sex jokes. We also have new nicknames."

"Oh and I explained my love for Wal-Mart, and the color blue."

Preston laughed softly, "So did anything happen?"

"We- uh, kissed."

Rob shot up as soon as the words left my lips, a grin on his face. "You kissed?!"

"Yeah- Well, he kinda,, kissed me. A goodnight kiss I suppose."

Preston squealed softly, slapping his hand over his mouth. "That's so cute!"

I heard my phone ding from upstairs, motioning for the boys to follow, I went up to my room and flopped onto my bed. I quickly removed the phone from the charge and looked at the message.

[ Vik <3 ]: You told Poofless we kissed?

[ Lachlan ]: They wanted details, I gave them details

[ Vik <3 ]: GrEat now m y pHone is exploding with texts from Rob.

[ Lachlan ]: :D have fun suffering.

[ Vik <3 ]: I hate you Power

[ Lachlan ]: Fight mEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I laughed softly and shut off my phone screen, looking up from it.

"Texting Vik?"

"Mmhm."

"Gaaaaay."

"Says the one who's fucking a flower king."

Preston's face turned bright pink at this, stuttering and stumbling on his words. "It was one.. one time!"

"Oh Robby! Harder!" I bantered, "Rob basically broke the damn bed!"

Rob giggled softly, wrapping his arm around the brunettes waist. "It wasn't the only time though."

[ Vik <3 ]: im gonna SCREAM

[ Lachlan ]: and shout?

[ Vik <3 ]: BYE I'M DONE

[ Lachlan ]: VIIIIIK

[ Vik <3 ]: LACHLAN ROB IS TEXTING ME SAYING WE'RE GONNA BE THE KINKEST OUT OF ALL OF THE GROUP MAKE HIM STTTTTTOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPP.

I laughed softly, looking up and snatching Rob's phone from his hands. He looked at me with a fake pout.

"No fair!"

"Yes fair, You're making my soulmate uncomfortable. Not cool."

"Why do you do that?" Preston spoke up and I looked at him, I guess the confusion was etched into my features as he began to speak again.

"Why do you call him your soulmate? Why not boyfriend?"

"Well, I'm not sure if he wants to consider me that, since before he didn't even want to kiss me. He seemed uncomfortable with me at first, like the day I asked him out he seemed like he didn't want to really talk it out or something. I don't know how to explain it."

Preston nodded, a soft noise of agreement left his lips. "So you want to take it slow?"

I nod and fall back onto my bed, my phone dinging once more.

[ Vik <3 ]: lachlan im bored

[ Lachlan ]: you're gonna have to be bored, Poofless is currently raiding my fridge.

[ Vik <3 ]: I don't understand the poofless name tbh

[ Lachlan ]: do you know what Rob's Xbox name is?

[ Vik <3 ]: Woofless. Why-

[ Vik <3 ]: OH MY GOD I'M AN IDIOT.

[ Lachlan ]: shhhhshhshshh

"Lachlannnnnn I'm bORED." Preston whined softly, laying down on my bed.

"Sucks to be you then."

"Can we go do something with Viiiik?"

I shrugged and stood. I walked over to my dresser and rummaged through its contents. Pulling out a white shirt and a pair of red skinny jeans, I slipped them on.

"Let's go then- I'll drive."

"Hell yeah!"
