Hard to Love a Wolf [BOOK 1]

Chapter Nineteen

The feeling of someone messing with my hair woke me up. I screwed my eyes together while exhaling a deep, annoyed breath from my nose. "Good morning" I opened my eyes and smiled at Sweetpea who had some of my hair between his fingers, twisting it around one. "I feel like I got hit by a truck" I complained while his chest rumbled with laughter underneath me. "You kind of did" I closed my eyes back and rested my head back on his shoulder. "You have makeup all over your face" "Am I still cute at least" "I don't think that's even a question" "you're technically the reason its messed up" "But you looked so good when you were choking and tears streamed down your face" I blushed and lightly smacked his bare chest as he laughed.

"Careful what you say, I already feel like I got hit but I won't hesitate for one more ride" I said while opening my eyes and looking up to him as he gave me a sly smirk. "well in that case, c'mere" he whispered while gripping me by my bare ass and pulling me to lay on him while leaning up to kiss me.

I lightly put my hands on his cheeks as I kissed him back, the both of us setting up as my knees rested on either side of his thighs. "Actually, I think we should go get breakfast" "Pops?" I nodded and gave him another kiss before getting up, gripping my bed tightly. "Holy shit" Sweetpea whispered and I felt his hand ghost over my back. "What" I asked while making my way to sit at my vanity.

Then I noticed all the bruises on my body, and I turned to Sweetpea as my jaw dropped "Sweetpea, people are going think you beat me up" "I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking" he said while pulling his boxers up and making his way to lightly wrap around me. I nodded and he kissed my temple while I grabbed a makeup wipe. "I'm going to get a change of clothes and shower, I'll be back over to take you for breakfast" I nodded and pulled him down by his hand to kiss him again before he got dressed and climbed out the window.

I wrapped myself in my robe and made my way out of my room, hearing the tv on I quickly stepped into the bathroom and locked the door before starting the shower. I brushed my hair and teeth while I waited for the water to warm up.

The hot water on my skin felt almost magical. My body was sore, and I looked like I really got my ass beat. When I finished, I got out and grabbed my towel and quickly went back to my bedroom where I got dressed for the day. I sat at my vanity and blow dried my hair. When I heard someone knocked on my door, I turned it off, nearly dry anyway. I looked up to see Sweetpea give me a smile as he came in. I finished drying my hair as he sat on my bed, watching me.

I released a sigh as I stood up, turning it off and grabbing my jacket from my chair. "You ready" I turned to him with a smile "I am" he returned it and we made our way out of my room, past the living room and to his bike. I winced as I swung my leg over it and he rubbed my knee when I rested it against his leg. "I'll be easier from now on, baby" he said while turning his head to me. I nodded and wrapped my arms around him while he started the bike.

When we got to Pops, I was relieved to get off the bike, my legs shaking a bit. "Let me help you" he said while wrapping his arms around my back and holding me up. I leaned into him as we got into the diner. I eyed it before I noticed the core four setting in a booth, along with Reggie. Sweetpea didn't care as he lightly tugged me to set two booths down from them. Sweetpea shrugged his jacket off and looked at me "Let me go up here and order, I'll be right back" I gave a nod as he walked to the counter. I rubbed my face with my hands and sighed as I noticed Jughead giving me a disgusted face. "What" I mouthed, and he nodded his head to Pea and then circled his finger around his neck and pointed at me. His actions made everyone look at me, and I quickly hid my face in my hands. "Here's your coffee, babe" Sweetpea said as he sat beside me.

I pulled away and smiled at him before I sat up just enough to pull my jacket off, with a wince. "I really hurt you didn't I" "Yeah, a little bit Sweetpea" I mumbled, and he sighed while taking my jacket and setting it in the seat in front of us with his. "I'll be nicer next time" he said while kissing my cheek and wrapping an arm around my shoulder. I leaned into his chest "But I liked it" he let out a small chuckle. "Are you sure you want to look and feel like this all the time?" "Maybe, be a little more careful with bruises. My back really hurts from the dresser" I mumbled as his chest rumbled again.

"I'll be more careful then" I smiled and leaned up to look at him, as he looked at me, taking a sip of his coffee. "Oh, my god" I looked up as Cheryl, Toni, and Fangs came in and instantly spotted us. "Did he throw you off a roof or something, holy hell" Cheryl said as they walked over. Pea grabbed our jackets and I sat them beside me. "No" I responded with a shrug. "I don't think I can look at either of you right now" Fangs said as he pulled up a chair to set at the end of the table.

I rolled my eyes and Sweetpea laughed while patting his back, but he moved away from it "I seen what that hand did last night" he said as I shook my head. "we showered – separately. Nothing to be afraid of" Pop walked over with two plates before the other three ordered. I started to eat my breakfast as Sweetpea lifted my leg into his lap, making me wince with a mouth full of bacon. "Shit, sorry baby" he said while kissing a kiss to my cheek, leaving syrup on it. I glared at him while he chuckled and wiped it off with a napkin.

"You guys got anything planned after here?" I looked at Sweetpea, and he shook his head. "Want to go to the den then?" "I bet $10 I'll beat your ass in pool" Fangs said to Sweetpea while taking a drink of the coffee Pop just sat down. "Do you want to go?" "Sure, can't lie around the house all day" "You probably should" I rolled my eyes and shoved a bit of pancake into his mouth.

Sweetpea and I walked into the bar behind the others, Pea had his arm around my waist and mine was tucked in his back pocket as we made our way to the bar. Mom eyed us, but Sweetpea stopped half way there and gave me a kiss on the cheek before going to the pool table. I made my way to my mom where I groaned while setting in the tall chair.

"How was prom, baby" "It was good" I shrugged, and mom cocked her eyebrow at me. "so, you and Sweetpea" "Shut up, mom" "Look, your dad said he liked him when you left yesterday, he said he'd prefer you dating someone like him over the football player anyway. I can see your neck, and I came into your room to check on you- so I seen your back when you were asleep. Were you safe?" I thought for a moment, trying to collect my thoughts before shaking my head with wide eyes.

She nodded "Don't freak out, when you get back home there are some plan B pills in your bathroom, and condoms. I put them in there, in that little blue box." "Some of them? How many did you buy, lady" I asked, knowing they weren't too cheap. "A few, that way you'll always have that just in case. Be more careful, Adelina. Just take it as soon as you get home and it'll be alright" I nodded and she slid me two beers, "Take those to Fangs and Sweetpea, then you have to take some out to your dad and Hogeye" I huffed while getting up, making my way over to Sweetpea as he made a ball into the pocket. I handed Fangs both "One of those are his" I said before making my way back, where Toni was holding two beers and making her way off.

"Never mind, Toni is taking those to the garage" I nodded and sat back on the chair in a huff. I wanted so badly to take my jacket off, but I knew the open back of my shirt would give away all our secrets of last night, so I kept it on. I tapped on the counter along to the beat of the music while mom gave me a beer.
