"I can help if you want."



"I-I guess so" I could probably be mistaken as a tomato right now.

He got up, picked me up again and went upstairs. When we got to the bathroom, he carefully put me down on the little bench by the shower and turned it on, leaving it to run, then turned around and went into the connected wardrobe.

He came back wearing swimming trunks and shirtless. SHIRTLESS. That is dangerous. The man is too hot for it to be normal, like, come on, that is not natural!

"I'd say God bless you, but it looks like he already did" I said trying to break a bit of the tension on that bathroom. He chuckled but didn't say anything.

Instead, he came towards me. Looking into my eyes, and only to my eyes, he stated to take his hoodie from me.

Without breaking the eye contact, he lifted me through my armpits, to a position where I could stand, so that I could take my shorts off. He then sat me down on a stool inside the shower, and proceeded to gently massage my scalp.

After rinsing my head and body, in a weirdly intimate yet not sexual way, he turned the shower off and grabbed towels for the both of us, he put it around me and used his to dry himself before picking me up again. I told him to put me on the bed and grab for me some undergarment and his hoodie, because, seriously, what else do I need?

I managed to dress myself while sitting down, then laid back on the bed.

"Come lay with me for a little bit, yeah?"
"Okay, but only for a little bit! Later I have to go meet the boys to make a final decision." He climbed on the bed and pulled me to him, hugging me softly from behind.

But I couldn't sleep even embraced on his arms, that dream kept on replaying on my mind.

"Baby, are you awake?" I whispered poking his shoulder weakly.
"Yeah, what's up?"- His voice was a bit groggy, I could tell he was on verge of sleep.
"What do you think it means for someone to dream about the Moon Goddess?"
"Well, most legends say that the Moon Goddess can visit those in need on their dreams, is her way of giving hope and staying connected to us." I turned around on his arms to look at him "why do you ask?" He slid his hand from my waist to the side of my face, tracing his thumb back and forth on my cheek with a weak smile gracing his lips.

I closed my eyes for a moment, enjoying his touch.

"When I was passed out on the hospital, I had this weird dream with the Moon Goddess and my grandmother." I admitted.
"And what happened on this dream?" His smile was gone, replaced by a little frown, with his eyebrows furrowed. But still not stopping his stroke on my cheek.
"You know that legend Kat told us the day of my first shift?" He nodded "Well, I woke up inside my dream and my grandma was there, we talked and she took me to the middle of the woods, where I basically watched the end of the battle on the legend as well as the Moon Goddess saying the prophecy, and then it gets weird.

While no one else there seemed to see me and grams, the Moon Goddess came to us, and she was sort of friends with my grandma?! Anyways, she then told me that we are indeed the ones from the prophecy. That the pack from my great great great great grandfather has this legacy, involving the war and the legend, and once they know about us, it has a great chance that they'll do something awful to us."

He didn't answer right away, seeming to be in deep thought.

"I think you should tell the group about it, and see what they think, because I didn't even believed on that legend to have an opinion about this . If you think we could be in danger, I can do something about it, like increase training time, and we can talk to the elder to ask him about it too if that makes you feel calmer." He looked really confused, like he didn't know if he should believe me or not, but still trying to say all the right things to make me feel better in case I'm crazy.
" Sounds like a plan." I then wrapped my arms around him and out my head on his neck.

I gave a quick peck on the connection between his shoulder blade and his neck, making him shiver.

"Baby, I'm still controlling myself because of that shower, it is not a good idea to give me neck kisses." His voice a bit rusky.
" Oh my mr. Brock, have I found your weakness?" I smirked a little bit. He hesitated to answer.
"Maybe..." We chuckled, and he kissed the top of my head.

"You know" I said after some time " I think that seeing my grandma again finally gave me the closure I've been looking for all of this years. After she died, I lost myself, fell in depression, didn't care about anything. Lydia and Kira helped me through it, as well as my family, but still, I never felt 100% fine like before. I feel like now that I've said goodbye ad that I love her, I can be sure that she knows it. I feel lighter now, happier." One tear escaped my eyes.
" I'm really happy that you can feel better, but even so, I'm sure that even before, she knew that you love her." He hugged me more into him and I smiled. "Now go to sleep princess,You need to rest, it'll help you heal faster."

"Colby?"
"Yes?"
"I love you"

It's the first time any of us has said it. It might not seam like such a big deal after finding out you were literally made for each other, but to me, it still is important, and is exactly how I feel.

"I can't even begin to explain how much I love you, princess." He kissed my head again, and, on each others arms, we fell asleep, the best sleep of my life.
