(Yay! Another Update--pretty long chapter now that I think about it, hope y'all like it. Please share, and comment if you like it 😊. Alright, that's enough with me..back to Amelia.)

I'm on something soft.

Something is on me.

I don't feel hot anymore.

I. Need. Kaiden.

My eyes start to open, slowly, but it feels like they have been glued shut. Once I've got them partially open, I see skin. Smooth, and muscular. Trailing my eyes up, I take in a breath when I see a sleeping Kaiden meer inches from me. I rise on my elbow and survey my surroundings to find that I am not in my room. I'm going out on a limb here and guessing it's Kaiden's room.

Surprise, surprise, everything is gray. Even the sheets that cover us are a cool gray.

I try to move but my head protests, and Kaiden's arm wraps tighter around my waist. Sighing, I lay myself back down facing Kaiden again. Looking back to the sleeping god before me, I realize once more that he is shirtless, which turns my attention to the fact that I too am shirtless (albeit I have my bra on). Silently panicking, I peek under the covers to see that both Kaiden and I are wearing boxers.
Releasing the blankets, they gently fall back. I blow out a breath, how did I get here? Why am I here? What happened?!

A hand rests itself on my cheek, and my eyes flutter shut enjoying the sparks created by Kaiden's hand. He turns my face so that I can look at him.

He sits up and grabs my face softly between both of his strong hands. "You're awake. How are you feeling? Still hot?" He keeps one hand on my cheek, the other runs through my hair.

"I'm fine," I manage to rasp. "I don't feel hot, but I have a headache. Weirdest flu ever."

He laughs and pulls me to his solid chest. "You scared the shit out of me sweet pea." I relax into his embrace, breathing in his scent.

Then I remember the picture. "Kaiden, I need to tell you something. I recieved-"

He pulls away. "Amelia, I know about the picture."

"You do?" He nods, "Okay, good. I was going to tell you, but I got hit with this stupid flu."

He releases me and stands up, it takes all my will power not to gawk. His body is a sight to behold. And it is all mine.

Kaiden laughes, Yes it is. Just like yours is mine.

Que blush and death of embarrassment.

"Come on, lets go get you dressed and we can talk about what's happened while you were out." He holds out his hands to me, and I oblige. Leading me to his closet he hands me a black long sleeve.

I take it with a smile when a question pops in my head. "Kaiden," He pokes his head out of the closet, "Why am I in a bra and boxers, and you just in boxers?"

He comes out in sweats, pulling a hoodie over his head. Casual Kaiden is kinda hot..

"I'll explain everything once we've had breakfast. Everything. I promise." He tells me as I pull the long sleeve over my head, it reaching my mid-thigh.

As we walk to the kitchen, Kaiden explains how he had everyone leave his house. Meetings were cancelled, no person other than Marina, Tate, Simon, and the pack doctor were allowed. "How long was I out?" I ask, sitting with a bowl of Cookie Crisps.

Kaiden takes a seat in front of me, and starts peeling the orange he chose as his breakfast. "About three days. The day you collapsed was the hardest, your body couldn't handle the Heat. You were barely in and out of consciousness the past two days."
