Together Always

Chapter 10

Aliyah's POV

After awhile of talking with Melanie, she becomes serious. "I need to talk to you. With out Nathan." She whispers so they won't hear us. Looking past her I notice the boys are deep into some topic before dragging Mel to one of the school's bathrooms. I lock the door.

"So what's up?" I say after awhile of silence. Melanie breaks down into tears and I stroke her hair back. "Please tell me what's going on. We don't have much time before the boys notice we're gone."

"I'm scared. Cameron is only little, 5 months." I frown in confusion. "I'm pregnant again, Ali! It's too soon! I mean I want a family but I'm just adjusting to one child let alone two!" She buries her head in my chest and I rub her back while whispering soothing words. She eventually fell asleep in my lap and that's when the boys decide to find us.

The boys pound on the door telling me to let them in. I carefully set Melanie on the ground and unlock and slip out the door making sure they can't see anything inside. I stand in the doorway blocking their way in.

"Ali, what are you doing? Move out of the way!" Nathan roars. I put a finger to my lips hushing him.

"She's asleep. Be quiet."

"Wanna tell me why?" I don't respond. "Why's your shirt wet, Ali?" I shrug.

"Tell me!" They both roar at the same time. I sigh and roll my eyes.

"She was fucking crying, okay? She's scared and I can't tell you why!" I scream out and stomp away. Nathan rushes into the bathroom and Chris pulls me to his chest. "Don't scare me like that ever again!" I look up at him and smile sheepishly.

"She needed me more at that moment. You're going to have to learn to share me." He pouts.

"What if I don't wanna?"

"Too bad.... I was thinking"

"Yeah" He looks really nervous and concerned and it's really cute.

"Before we tell the pack, which they all probably know with that scene earlier, we should get our families together." I look up with hopeful eyes. "They deserve to know first" He nods and a smile crosses his face.

"Anything for you, mi amo."

"But, first, I want to know you." So that's what we did we sat in an empty classroom and got to know each other.

Aliyah's POV

"Ali!" Melanie whispered in my ear. "Thank you, for yesterday." I nod, almost falling asleep in my cereal. Deciding to skip school again, I greet Melanie.

"Can I ask you a favor?" I ask sitting up.

"Anything." I bite my lip.

"Can you get everyone to go to the beach today?" She frowns before nodding.

"Can I ask why?"

"We decided it would be best to introduce each other to out families first." She nods and skips happily towards the door.

"Hey, Mel?"

"Yeah?"

"Did you tell him?" She shakes her head. "He deserves to know."

"Who deserves to know?" A very sleepy Nathan walks in.

"You. But I'll tell you later! Right now we have something more important!"

"Oh, really?" He raises an eyebrow.

"Mr. Alpha I need you to force everyone down to the beach!" He frowns.

"Why would I do that?"

"For certain reasons." I but in.

"Who am I forcing down to the beach?" He sighs as he gives in.

"Everyone who lives in this house and your high ranks!" I skip over to him and give him a peck on the cheek before heading upstairs to get ready.
