"Hadley, hey, we uh, we need to talk to you," I grab Fen's arm and pull him into Hadley's office.

"Yeah?" He looks up from a stack of paper.

"Uh," I clear my throat once, again. "So I know you told me not to date him but, it kind of happened." Hadley's eyes light up and I'm terrified for a moment.

"Ohhh?" He gestures to the chairs. "Finally, you two have weird energy and I've been waiting for this to happen, but, you do know how much danger this puts both of you in, right? You can't just date lightly, you have to be sure of this."

"We're pretty sure," Fen sits down and sets his head on Hadley's desk, looking at me. I sit next to him in the other chair.

"So, do I get to hear a story, or?" He fidgets with his pencil.

Fen clears his throat. "Uh,"

"I know you two had something happen after the drinking night, which I knew I shouldn't have let you do, but," He shrugs. "I mean, Hunter looked like he wanted to."

"Yeah, we kinda messed up, and then we were mad for months, and then I got hurt, and uh," Fen scratches the back of his head.

"And I thought he was going to die, so,"

"So I signed myself out of the hospital way too early, and she showed up to my apartment and we made up for it."

"Awh," Hadley sets his head in his hands. "Thank you guys for telling me before anyone else, because I'd like to keep this out of the public eye, at least until the end of playoffs. So you, mr. territorial, no posting about her, anywhere, hear me?"

"Uh huh," Fen twiddles his fingers.

"And Nico, no going soft on him anywhere. Not at practice, not during games, nothin'. Treat him like everyone else and nobody will be suspicious." Hadley taps his fingers on the desk. "Now, shoo shoo, I've got work to do and you've got love to be in." Fen smiles and stands up, me after him.

"Thanks, Hadley," I say.

"Thank you," Fen shuts the door behind him and we're in the hall. "Went better than I thought it would."

"Yeah, it did, didn't it." He picks my hands up in his and pulls us together, a weird look in his eyes.

"I can't wait until we're out of the shadows with all this," He takes a step to me, meeting me completely.

"Why?"

"I just want you to be all mine." He sets his forehead on mine, looking right at me. "I'm sick of the looks you get, Nico, you're fucking beautiful, so beautiful, and so many guys stare at you, I just,"

"You want the gratification?" I toy with him a little, seeing if he's got a better answer.

"I want to tell them you're mine, mine mine mine." He chuckles.

"You are territorial, aren't you."

"Very. Especially with you,"

"Hmm," I smile up at him and he smiles back.

"We went to the store yesterday, right, and I know you had this issue too," He slips his hands around my waist and holds me close to him. "But there was this guy our age, and the way he was eyeing you made me really uncomfortable." Fenrir kisses my cheek.
