"Have you thought about what you're gonna do when you have the cub? Like where you're going to live?" "I wanted my own house but with everything that's going on, it's better for us to stay in the pack." "You can still have your own house, it just means some of us will need to go with you." "I never thought about that. I'll need to speak to Chanyeol about it all." I grabbed the container of steak, eating it all "My only problem is I don't know how he's gonna react." "If it's for the cub, I don't think he'll mind." "What? What won't I mind?" "Chan?" "Yeah?" "D.O just suggested something." "What?" "Well I want my own house but with all the shit that's happening, it's probably better for us to stay. But Kyungie suggested we still get our own house, we just take a couple of the guys with us so we're safe."
He just stared at us, frowning "Was this really your idea Kyungsoo?" "Yes, it was." "Well we'd need to decide who comes with us. Because whoever we take will want their mate with them." "True." I sigh, going over to hug him "Who do you want to go with us?" "Kyungie?" "Yes Kat?" "Would you want to stay here or come with us?" "I'd prefer to stay here but if you really need me, then I'll go with." "You can stay Kyungie." I smiled, hugging him "Let's finish up hmm?" We finished putting everything away, Chanyeol getting the stuff in the high places "Can you call the others?" Chanyeol went to the stairs, shouting up "EXO MEETING." They came downstairs, sitting in the living room "Why did you only call us?" "I have a decision to make..." "Don't you mean we?" Chan asked but I glared at him "Hi Katherine, how's the cub doing?" I patted his abs, rolling my eyes "Anyway, I want my own house but with all this shit, I'd prefer to stay with the pack. But with everyone being here, it's too cramped so I'm gonna get my own house."
"Right?" Suho frowned, Lay cuddling into him "Basically, we're gonna get our own house but some of you will need to come with so.....who wants to come." "I will." Suho spoke, making me frown "Don't you need to look after these guys?" "I'm coming. I wanna be close to Katherine." Xiumin pouted so I went over, pinching his cheeks "You're my little baozi." "But if you do come, you're mate needs to come too. I'm not tearing you guys up." "Chen?" Minnie looked at him and he nodded, smiling "I'm fine with it." "Anybody else?" They all looked to their own mate, talking about it "We don't need all of you, it's just cause this house is cramped." Chanyeol clarified, Suho looking like he was in a mental debate. "Even if you don't come with, you know you can always visit right?" I watched Suho relax, causing me to go over and hug him
"Are you okay?" "I was trying to figure it out but it's best if I stay here as the leader." "I'll visit when I can, remember that." I pulled away, Baekhyun and Sehun having a small argument "If you want to go then you can but I'm staying." "I'm not arguing about this in front of the cub." Baekhyun got up and walked off, Sehun following. Not long after, we heard them yelling so I went up, knocking on the door "Go away Suho, now isn't the time." So I knocked one more time, Sehun opening the door "What?" "Both of you sit the fuck down." They sat at the edge of the bed while I stood in front of them "Why are you arguing?" "I wanna go with you but Sehun wants to stay here." "Why do you wanna come with?" "I wanna be close to my noona." I stood in front of him and he hugged my bump, laying his head against it "I wanna be with my noona and my nephew." "Or niece." I chuckle, looking at Sehun
"Why do you want to stay?" "It's my home, it's where my happiest memories are. My family is here." I looked at Baekhyun who had teary eyes, getting up and running out "Sehun. Look I'm gonna be honest. Do you really want to stay in a house with 20 other people?" "I don't care how many people there are, this is my home." I just stared at him, sighing "What's more important? Your mate's happiness or a home full of memories?" He went quiet, debating "If you even have to think about that, you don't love him as much as you say you do." "I've never told him I love you." I stared at him in shock, getting mad "No wonder he's upset, he probably thinks you don't love him." I walked out and went downstairs, looking at everyone "He's out back." I went outside, seeing Bakehyun in a corner crying "Hey sweetie." "Please leave me alone." I tried to sit down but couldn't so I opted for kneeling instead "Come here sweetie. Why are you so upset?" I pulled him into my side, petting his head as he cuddled into me "I don't understand why he wants to stay here."
"It's something else. Now tell me, what's got you so upset?" "He doesn't let me do anything. A couple days ago, I wanted to go somewhere but he wouldn't let me. At night, we've been having arguments and we've been fighting a lot." "But you look so good together." "We only act like that. We aren't doing good, he's too controlling and I just want away from it." He sobbed, hiding his face in the side of my boob "Don't worry sweetie. Why don't you just come then?" "I need to figure things out with Sehun first." "That's probably a good idea. You wanna go talk to him now?" "I'm scared in case it's another argument." "Don't worry, I'll warn Sehun alright? You just calm down, go see Chanyeol alright?" He nodded and got up, helping me "God I hate this kid already." I groaned, trying to stretch my back "Come on slugger." We went in, Chanyeol coming over "Is he okay?" "Comfort him alright? I need to go talk to Sehun." I kissed him softly, going upstairs to Sehun's room
"Hey, we need to talk." "Okay?" He has a sour tone to his voice but I ignored it "Baekhyun wants to talk to you so I'm warning you now. If it turns into an argument, I will hit you both." "Is that a threat?" I hit him, growling "Don't test my patience boy. Now I expect you to treat him fairly and listen to him." I went back downstairs, Baekhyun half asleep against Chanyeol "Hey Baek?" "Hmmm, I'm going." He got up, hugged me, and then went upstairs, everyone looking at me "What?" "What's going on?" "I think they might finish. Baekhyun told me that Sehun is controlling him and he can't handle it." "Oh no." "Yeah, so I said Bakehyun could come with us. Are you okay with that?" I asked Chanyeol who nodded "He can come if he wants." "I'm gonna start looking at places. I wanna be close to the pack." "That's a good idea."
I searched through as many websites as I possibly could, finding out someone down the street was selling their house. "Babe, look." "What?" I showed him my phone screen, his eyes widening "Hey guys, someone's selling their house down the road." "Really? How many rooms?" "It's 5 but you know. One for XiuChen, another for me and Chanyeol, one for the cub and the extra two are spares." "That's a good idea." Suho smiled, kissing Lay who was whining "But do you really want that house?" "I'll be close to the pack you know? It'd be easier for you guys to visit so I really like-" "I don't give a fuck Sehun, it's my life." Everyone jumped in fright, D.O and I rushing upstairs "Get off me." I pulled Sehun off Baek while D.O got Baekhyun, Sehun elbowing me in the bump, hard. "Ah." I whimper, bending a little and holding my belly "D.O." They looked at me in shock, Sehun looking unfazed "Here." Kyungie got one side while Baek got the other, helping me downstairs "Get BamBam." "What happened?" Chanyeol rubbed my stomach, causing me to groan "It hurts." "It's okay, calm down." "Lay down."
They helped me lie down, BamBam rushing downstairs "Alright, back up." They all did, Chanyeol holding my hand. Bam lifted my top, placing a hand over the cub "She's okay.....she's okay." "She?" I looked at him as he nodded "It's gonna be a girl?" Tears filled my eyes, and I started sniffling "We're gonna have a baby girl?" "Congrats." Bam smiled, helping me up as I hugged him tightly "So what happened?" "Sehun elbowed her." "He hit my unborn niece." Baekhyun whimpered, hugging the cub "You're coming with me Baek." "Where?" "To the house." "Right now?" "No, when we get it." I sighed, lifting his chin up "You and Sehun aren't mates. I can see it." "But I have nobody." "Sometimes you have a mate that just isn't the one. But you deal with it anyway because you think you love them." Bam spoke, looking up at Jackson "I hit rock bottom when I met Jackson." "What are you saying?" "It's gonna be hard, but your true mate will be there when you need someone the most."
"I already hit rock bottom...... I don't sleep, I don't eat......I'm exhausted and these leeches don't help either." "Come here." I pulled him to me, wincing because of the pain, but let him cuddle the cub "Go to sleep little one." I whisper, covering his eyes with my hand while the other was still holding Chanyeol's "I'll go talk to Sehun." "Nobody is going to him. Soon enough, he'll realise what he's done and he'll come to us." I spoke, Sehun coming downstairs "What are you all looking at?" Chanyeol tensed, looking like he was about to snap any second now "Excuse me?" "I don't repeat myself." My eyes turned yellow, SHINEE coming in "What happened?" "He elbowed noona in the stomach." Luhan spoke, Minho rushing over to me "Is it okay? Are you okay? Is it bad?" "You're gonna have a niece." "It's a girl?" He choked, eyes filled with tears "Yup." "Oh my god." His eyes flashed gold and he turned, glaring straight at Sehun "You hurt my niece, you hurt my sister, you hurt her baby, you've been hurting your mate.... If something happens to my sister or the cub, I'll kill you."
