New Girl In Town (1) ✔️

Rest Assured

"Guys, I'm like uber nervous."

One set of arms wind around my waist while another pair of hands reach out to run comfortingly through my hair.

"Angel, your voice is amazing. Just having you sing is almost a guaranteed win for your team."

"Princess, you're one of the most talented people in your poor excuse of a glee club."

Sebastian ducks as a napkin is hurled at his head. "Hey Berry, watch it!!"

I can't help but giggle as I look around the table.  We make a rather odd assortment in this giant booth at Breadstix.  I'm seated between both Hunter and Sebastian.  Seb's arms are looped tightly around my middle while Hunter's fingers are moving delicately through my hair.  Sebastian sticks his tongue out at Rachel, a gesture that she is quick to reciprocate.  I smile at them both as my gaze turns to Hunter, he has a lock of my hair twirling between his long fingers.

Our eyes meet and he winks.  Naturally I blush and wrinkle up my nose at him.

I love you, Shay-Baby.

"Honestly you two are so sweet I just want to eat you with a spoon."

Instantly I turn to see Mercedes and Tina sliding into the empty table next to us.  They have Sam, Artie and Mike in tow.  I'm blushing something fierce right now, having been caught in a rather public, if not insanely G-Rated moment with Hunter.

All while we are sitting in the same restaurant booth with my fiancé, cousin, his boyfriend, their best friend, her boyfriend and his best friend.

For those not up on the lingo that would be Sebastian, Blaine, Kurt, Rachel, Finn and Puck.  I know, I know....  Its sick and twisted but hey, its my life these days.

Sebastian just looks slightly irritated as he picks up his menu again.  "Please, don't encourage them.  Shann, I understand you're seeing us both but I would rather not be witness to you two being so sickeningly gooey with each other."

Sorry Sebby...

Hunter glances up from his menu with a little smirk before looking back down again quickly.  "Angel, don't apologize.  You have no reason too.  And its not like I don't have to suffer through you constantly pawing at her all the time, Smythe."

"Clarington, she was my fiancée first, remember that."

Hunter just laughs softly at that, breathing out in a clear, steady voice.  "Are we really playing the who was first game again Smythe?  Because I thought it was evident that I clearly won that..."

He has his phone in his hands, attempting to pull up old photos to show to everyone at the table yet again.  Blaine, Kurt and Rachel are watching their back and forth banter as if they are at a tennis match.  Finn is willfully oblivious, still perusing his menu, lips moving as he mulls over different options.  Puck just looks so entertained at this point.

That is until I close my menu and set it down on the table in front of me with more force than necessary.

"Boys.......  What did I say?"

My gaze sweeps over both of them.  Sebastian, who is normally on the paler side, he has lost all color in his face.  Now appearing white as a ghost, sea green eyes wide.  Hunter is the complete opposite, his cheeks are blooming with a pink blush, eyes averted, trying to glace at me cautiously through his lashes.  Their replies come almost simultaneously.

"Angel, I'm sorry.  I'll try better, I promise."

"Pretty Girl, I'll be nicer.  I wouldn't want to do anything to jeopardize our future together."
