We sit in absolute silence as they start to doze off. I rest my head on his chest, listening to his steady heartbeat.
I never thought it would be him. Everything seemed so planned out already. But I'm glad the moon goddess made this mistake.

¥¥¥ Jack's POV
Spencer and I were heavily engaged in an argument about our favorite desserts when suddenly I smelled the best thing in the world.
"Wait. Spencer, shut the hell up."
"What the f-"
"Who made strawberry shortcake?" I asked him, dying for a slice. I've never smelled one with such a great scent. My mouth is literally about to water.
Spencer raised his eyebrow, looking at an also confused Sara. "...dude, there's no strawberry shortcake."
"Spencer, we're werewolves. My strong ass smelling definitely detects some strawberry shortcake. With chocolate syrup."
"Jake, there's no-" he stopped himself.
Then he and Sara gave each other... knowing smirks.
What the hell do they know?
"What? What's going on?"
Sara giggled, turning around to eat some cookies. Spencer just came to me with a grin, wrapping his arm around me.
"Are you ready?"
"What? For what? What are you talking about?"
"Dude, you're smelling something that nobody else can fucking smell."
"So? What does that mean?"
He rolled his eyes and darted his gaze to the side, doing a double take...
Then he smirked.
He leaned in to whisper, "maybe ask that guy..."
I was so confused until I looked in the direction that he was looking in.
Ooooh my goodness...
There stood the most handsome man I have ever seen, his muscles still evident under the well-fitting sweater and his eyes as dark as ever.
This does not feel like a drill.
He started walking toward me. I'm freaking out.
"Spencer, what do I-"
He nudged me closer to the guy.
Fuck!
We were so close now that I felt like I could blink and my eyelashes would graze his chest.
"Wow..." he whispered, using the both of his big, strong hands to caress my face gently. "You're more than I could've ever imagined."
And just like that I almost melted into his arms.
To my disappointment, he put his hands down. He soon put another one up to hold out.
"I'm Nick."
I now know what I'll be moaning.
"I- I Jack. I mean, no! I'm Jack. Haha. I Jack, I Robot!" Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up.
He didn't pay my idiocy any mind as he kept his smoldering gaze into my eyes.
"I've been waiting for you. I've smelled you all over campus for years but had no idea who you were. I even applied for a substitute teaching job after graduating just to smell you again. It almost drove me crazy."
I'm actually dying right now.
"He said I drove him crazy. Me!"
"Then take him upstairs!"
"You're no help."
I muted my wolf for a second to try to figure out what to say.
"Really?"
And that's all I come up with.
Why won't he look away?
Not knowing what to do, I mindlinked Spencer.
"Spencer, do something."
"What do you mean? Why?"
"His eyes are staring into the depths of my soul. I have too much anxiety for this."
I could practically feel him rolling his eyes.
"Sara, how comes moms don't have to be checked to see if the baby is hers?"
All eyes immediately turned on Spencer.
We could all use a friend like him.
"Guys let's go!" Tyler yelled to Kyle and Nick, splitting Kyle and Rocky from their ten minute hug.
Yes! Now I don't have to deal with his staring anymore!
"But we want to deal with his staring!"
"I know! But not so much that it gives me heart problems!"
"Just a little longer," Kyle pled as he and Rocky rocked back and forth in another tight hug. "don't make me go yet!"
Tyler tried to pry them apart once again.
"We have a meeting! Nick come help me!" Tyler yelled, trying his best.
Nick just smirked down at me, his eyes looking as though they held nothing but dirty thoughts. "Until next time, sweetheart." He left me with a couple light taps on my cheek.
