Jack

I awoke to Finn's arms wrapped tightly around my waist. His tired eyes were fixated on mine, his perfect lips curled into a smile.

"Good morning, beautiful" he said sleepily.

"Morning" I smiled back.

Although I felt awful for Jaeden given the circumstances and his brother being so sick, it did bring his family and us four boys closer together. I love it here. That snowstorm was a godsend, but eventually, we'll have to go home.

"What's wrong?" Finn asked. "Baby?"

"Nothing" I muttered.

He smirked.

"Nothing, huh, pouty? Talk to me, hon"

"Just...this snow isn't gonna be here forever. Eventually...we're gonna have to go back home. I wish we lived here, too"

"We'll still see Jae and Wyatt, babe. Not just on Skype and stuff but Jae will come home soon too-oh..." Finn trailed off.

"What?"

"Just...what is Jaeden gonna do if Noah dies or if he is 'cured' or whatever and he has to come home?"

"Shit..."

I hadn't thought of that. Jaeden's already been through enough...but once he has to go home and leave Wyatt behind...

"We gotta do something" I decided.

"Right...we just kidnap Wyatt and smuggle him back home" Finn joked.

"Yeah...I think there's some rope in the shed, we'll just buy him a ticket and he can live with us!"

"Jesus, Jack. We can't actually kidnap him you know" Finn laughed.

"I know...but we gotta do something before we have to go back" I insisted.

"You're right. Maybe we can talk to Jaeden's mom? Wyatt's?"

"Maybe...maybe! Angela loves us...haven't met Wyatt's mom though...hmm..."

I paced the room as Finn lay on the bed, watching me adoringly.

"You're cute when you're thinking" he said.

I kissed his cheek and went back to thinking.

"It's gotta be a surprise, so maybe if we can convince Angela, then maybe she can talk to Wyatt's mom. I think Jaeden mentioned they're really close, that's how he met Wyatt anyway"

"Good idea"

Finn and I made our way to Jaeden's house, but when we got there and knocked, there was no answer.

"No one home?" I asked.

"Can't expect them to be home all the time" Finn shrugged.
