Fall For You

Perfect Storm

I know how to make her laugh
Or blush, or mad at me
But that's OK there ain't no one
More beautiful angry

And she loves just as deep
As she goes when she's down
The highs match the lows
Can't have one without the other
And I love her just the way
God made her
Sunshine mixed with
A little hurricane

And she destroys me in that t-shirt
And I love her so much it hurts
I never meant to fall like this
But she don't just rain she pours
That girl right there's
The perfect storm

I was sitting at the table cleaning my guns when my nephew decided it would be a great idea to bust into my apartment.

"Cora!" I quirked an eyebrow.

"Yes nephew, hello, how are you?"

"Derek just broke my phone!" Scott exclaimed angrily.

"Why the hell did he do that?" I asked curiously.

"Well first he showed up in the parking garage of the grocery store and scared the crap out of me with some training thing! Then he was mad at me because he caught me because my phone rang. He told me I had to stay away from Allison and then just threw my phone against the wall!" He rushed out flopping down into the seat across from me, eying the guns spread out on the table wearily. I rolled my eyes.

"He's a dick for breaking your phone, but he's got a point. You should honestly be staying away from Allison until you get yourself under control." He looked guiltily down. I narrowed my eyes.

"What?" I questioned.

"I just came from Allison's." I chuckled not surprised. "I had to let her know why I wasn't responding, and then the Alpha showed up." I sat up straighter in my seat.

"Why the hell didn't you lead with that Scott? That's kind of important information. Are you okay?" I asked concerned. He nodded. I let out a sigh.

"Derek's going to want to talk to you. Can you wait for him to get here?" I asked. He shook his head.

"No I have to get these groceries home. I've already been gone for too long."

"Alright well I'll let him know. He'll probably stop over to talk to you tonight."

"What am I going to do about a phone? Mom's going to be so pissed." I sighed.

"Just give me a couple days. I'll pick up a few extra shifts at the bar and get you a new one."

"Derek's the one that broke it. Why don't you just make him pay for it? Don't you have that weird bond thing with him?" I laughed.

"The bond doesn't mean we can control the other person Scott. It just means we're connected." Scott nodded and stood.

"Alright well I need to get home. I'll see you later." I nodded.

"Love you!" I called as he headed to the door. He turned to me and smiled.

"Love you too, Aunt C." Once he was gone I picked up my phone and sent Derek a text.

Scott saw the Alpha. Might be a good idea to go see him. I got a thumbs up emoji in response. PS try NOT to be an asshole. Thxs. I ended the text with a kissy face emoji, and the response I received was an eye roll and middle finger emoji causing me to smile.

"Derek, do you remember when I asked you to lighten up on Scott?" I asked the wolf as he walked into the apartment. He quirked an eyebrow at me.

"Yes?" He questioned warily. I glared at him.
