His Mate *currently in editing*

Kacey

"Spencer! Is it getting better?"

He damn near shifted in the restaurant and ran us home once we were finished eating. Judging by how he hasn't left the bathroom in half an hour, I'm going to guess the food had an... impact on his belly.

Suddenly Kyle bursted through my hallway, shoving me out of the way.

He, being the worrier he is, forced Rocky to go to the drug store with him to pick up some medicine for Spencer.

"Hey buddy," he said gently as he lightly knocked on the bathroom door. "I have some Tylenol."

"Fuck o-!" The vomit-inducing sound of sputtering and splattering followed by a harsh groan halted his words.

Gross.

"This is the man we're in love with," Kira said with love in her voice.

"I'm goin' in!" Kyle announced before holding his breath and kicking the door open as if he was in the SWAT team.

I'm still trying to figure out why this is happening. We go to that restaurant all the time and this has never happened. Surely it couldn't have been...

It wasn't long before Kyle ran back out, coughing and wheezing for his life.

"I almost died in there!"

"Kyle?" I got his attention. "You think this is because of Honesty?"

"That creepy waitress? I don't know, why?"

"Well... while we were eating, I kept catching her staring at us... at me."

"That is kind of suspicious."

The toilet flushed and the water ran for a while before Spencer swung the door open.

"Are you saying you think Sincerity did this?"

Kyle gagged before running for the hills.

"Her name was Honesty."

"I don't give a fuck what her name is. I'm going back to that place."

He started to walk, but I stopped him. I can't have him getting this woman in trouble when we don't even know if she did it!

"No! We don't even know if it was her. Or anyone at all."

"What else could it be?"

"Maybe it was the ravioli," I said sheepishly.

"Yeah right." He tried to leave but I stopped him again.

"Don't! I'm sure it wasn't her!"

He stepped aside from the door and gave me a blank stare. "Why are you covering for her?"

Oh my God. There was so much sadness in him when he asked that. Does he think I want her? Over my true love?

"I'm gonna cry, Kacey. Just let him kill her!"

I quickly found a way to explain myself.

"I just don't want you to get her in trouble if she didn't do anything. Besides, what else could she do? She couldn't have followed us home. She was working a shift."

If I'm being honest, I don't want angry Spencer to come back. He hates that version of himself and it takes time to get him back into his normal headspace again.

"Bu-"

"Please."

His gaze into my eyes was relaxing. Those eyes always seemed so soft no matter what mood he was in.

Finally, he sighed. "Okay. But if anything else happens, I'm going down there."

"That's fine with me! Although I doubt it will."

"Sure. You sent everyone home, right?"

"Yep! Kyle was the last to go. They're all with their mates, enjoying their bonds." I wrapped my arms around his neck, making him smile. "Hopefully I get to do that now that mine is out of the bathroom."

"Alright, alright! Now you have me all to yourse- oh my... I'll be back!"

To my disappointment, he rushed back into the bathroom.

All this pregnant lady wants is a kiss from her mate. Is that too much to ask for?

I hate seeing him in this state. Not only is it disgusting, but it pains me to see him in pain. His pain is mine.

I despise the fact that I hurt his feelings by defending Honesty. If I was certain that it was her, then I would've been on her as well. For some reason, my guard is down. It's been down since the day I discovered we were having twins. Well, the day rogues attacked.

Maybe I'm calmer about things since I know that the rogues are gone for good. It just doesn't feel like there's much to worry about anymore. However, I can't blame Spencer for doing what male mates do.

Trying to fight anybody who looks at me wrong.

As Spencer released his... tension... in the bathroom, I scrolled through my phone.

"Kacey..."

I jumped at the sudden mindlink.

"Goodness. Sara?"

"Yes..."

"And Jack..."

"Why do you guys sound like ghosts?"

"We're trying to sound urgent! Anyways, what's the plan?" Sara asked, confusing me.

"Plan for what?"

"For exposing Honesty!"

"What? Why would we do that?"

"Kacey, she made your mate shit his pants. Don't you want revenge?" Jack intervened.

Reven... what are these two on?

Actually... it would be nice to find out if Honesty did do something to his food. That way I can kill her if she came up guilty.

"We'll discuss it tomorrow. I'm spending tonight with my mate," I told them before shutting my mindlink off.

I don't want to use that for too long. Spencer could've easily sensed what I was doing based off of my emotions.

It wouldn't be so bad to take a trip to Olive Garden tomorrow, would it?
