RAVEN
We had spent a great weekend getting to know Ryland's family and exploring and learning about the Black Creek Pack, the place my brother grew up as a kid.
It was a nice place, and very family oriented as the Barbarossa's seemed to completely run the pack...kind of disurbing when you think that some distant cousins may very well be married.
"I hope none of this is overwhelming you?" Nat sounded on the evening of the wedding rehersal.
"Nah, just enjoying our time here."
So you and Ry...no big rush to play house?"
I shook my head, "Not really...I mean I know this will all happen for Ryland and I some day, but we are just not there yet." I replied.
She smiled and then winked at me, "you are so smart."
Together we sat next to our family members and watched as Jameson and Vanessa giddily reacted the actions for tomorrow's big day.
It was nice to sit back and watch another couple in love, meanwhile My main focus was on my mate, of course he tried to pay attention to what was going on up at the alter but He kept looking at me.
'Pay Attention.' I scolded him, but was also humored at his boyish playfullness.
'You're distracting me.'
'I'm just sitting here.' I pointed out.
'I can't wait until we're back at home.' He thought with a slight frustration.
I smiled, 'Me too.'
When all was said and done, we followed the soon to be bride and groom to a favorite restaurant of theres and we ate a huge dinner.
When everyone seperated after dinner Ryland took a detour annd brought me to a cute little park.
Of cours eit being nighttime there were no others here and somehow it made the moment more special to me.
He took my hand and the turned me so that I was now facing him.
"Hey." He sounded
I couldn't keep the smile from my face. "Hey yourself."
"I just really wanted to talk to you, alone."
I nodded, "I'm glad you did." I sai before I kissed him, but before I knew it he had taken over the kiss and my back was now being pressed against a tree.
"You realy don't know how much we're missing you right now." He growled a little.
He stepped back and I could feel how swollenmy lips had gotten from our intense and sudden makeout session.
"We'll be home soon." I tried to assure him.
"Yeah...and then you'll be back at the packhouse."
I knew where he was going with this, "We both know me moving in for good isn't an option right now Love...I know it sucks, trust me...you don't know how hard ti is for me when I have to leave the apartment on Sunday nights knowing you're still there all alone in our aprtment."
"Guess I just got kind of used to you being there all the time."
"And I'm going to miss it too...but until i'm 18 theres really not much we can do unless Royce somehow just allows it...but something tells me my brother isn't going to just say, sure move in with your mate."
He smirked. "Maybe I should talk to him."
"Or...lets just wait it out, we've got to pick and choose o ur battles and the waters between you and my brother have been good, I really don't want to stir any hostilities up right now...not now that everything is finally about to settle down." I said in an almost pleading tone.
