Meeting My Alpha Mate #1

Chapter 21~Not Staying.

"Family of Bailey Smith?" The doctor asks, stepping into the waiting room. They had asked us to step out for a while.

Finally. Adira groans.

The three of us, Nick, Quinn, and I, got up quickly and walked towards him.

"Ms. Smith is awake and you may step in to talk to her but take it easy. Please makes sure she stays calm, she can't panic right now." The doctor tells us and we all nod our heads.

"Of course." Nick says

"You guys can head on over." He nods his head towards the room and Nick and Quinn speed walk.

"Thank you, doctor." I smile at him and follow right behind them.

"She's okay." Quinn whispers and I hug her. I pull back and smile at her as Nick walks in.

"Mom," Nick says, grasping her hand. "We're here." His eyes water and I'm sure mine are too.

"Nick?" She asks, opening her eyes. "Hi sweetie." She smiles at him and Nick kisses her knuckles.

"Hi mom." Quinn says, coming right beside her mom's other side. "I'm so glad you're okay." Her mom smiles kindly at her and I walk up next to Nick.

"Hi momma." I say to her.

"Hey Mel." She smiles with her eyes slightly closing.

"Excuse us but Ms.Smith needs to rest. Will you please step outside? We will keep you updated with anything that happens." The doctor informs us and we nod sadly.

"Go home, kids. We'll be fine." Mr. Smith says.

"We should." Quinn says. "They have to rest and we have to also. We should rest and chill for a little and then we can come back."

"Yes, since there are no major injuries, we just need them overnight and they should be able to go home tomorrow." The doctor says.

"Thanks doctor, please keep us posted." Nick says and he nods.

"Of course I will."

We all leave but Quinn went in Tyler's car. Nick and I went to Nick's apartment.

"Babe," I say and place my hand on his thigh.

"Hm." He sighs.

"They're okay. Stop worrying so much, I'm a little nervous too but I know they're awake so I'm not as worried. Think positively." I hold his cheek to look at me.

"You're not going through what I am. You don't understand." He says, moving my hand off of his face.

I'm upset. Adira growls lowly.

"I might not relate totally but your parents are like my second ones. They've been there for me when I need them too. We all feel shaken up about this, okay?" I move my hand off his thigh and look out of the car window as we pull into the building.

I quickly get out before he does and stay outside. I grab my phone from my pocket and am trying to call one of my brothers to get me.

"What are you doing?" He crosses his arms over his chest. I mirror his actions and keep the phone on my ear.

"Trying to get home." I explain. "Hey Wes, can you come-" And my phone is out of my reach, with a hand over my mouth.

"Sorry Wes, I got her. She thought I wouldn't make it." Nick fake laughs. "Yeah, see ya." He hangs up and puts my phone in his left butt pocket.

"Give me my phone you dick!" I yell through his hand. He pulls me to his chest and removes his hand.

"You wanna repeat that?" He grips my ass. I gulp silently.

No.

"I said, give me my phone you dick." His hand comes up my back and into my hair, slowly tugging on the tips. My head is slowly pulled back and his lips connect to my neck.

"Baby, you should watch that mouth of yours before it gets you into trouble." He tuts and I bite my lip as he sucks in the same place. That's definitely gonna leave a hickey.

"S-stop, we're in public, Nick!" I remind him but he shrugs and continues.

"Let's go inside now, baby." He whispers lovingly in my ear. "You need your punishment." He kisses my ear and pulls back.

"I need to go home." I grit my teeth in frustration.

"Home is wherever I am. No?" Nick says looking deeply into my eyes.

"Yes but right now I want to be alone. Let me call one of my brothers to pick me up, please." I say and he shakes his head.

"No, I want you here with me." I walk inside and he follows right behind, shutting the door quietly. He walks toward me and puts my hands into his.

"Nicholas, it's not just about what YOU want. What about what I want? That's not important to you, is it?" I pull away from him and cross my arms over my chest.

"Of course it matters, baby! I just don't want something bad to happen and me not being there with you." He explains and I walk backwards as he comes towards me.

"I want to be alone, Nicholas." I say. "By myself, not around you or anyone else."

"Why?" He asks with his fists clenched to his sides.

"Because I can't be the strong one right now either. So much has happened these past two days and I can't fucking breathe. I don't want you to feel worse if you see me upset. I just can't take seeing anyone else I love being hurt." I break down into sobs with my head down.

"Baby, I want you to tell me how you feel. You don't have to be the strong one here. You have a right to express your feelings and feel however you want. You are staying here, Mel. It'll help us both to be around each other, okay?" He says to me.

"You're right, I'll stay. Only if you promise our wolves will meet tomorrow?" I look up at him.

"I promise." He smiles at me and my face turns red.

"Oh my gosh, get away from me. I look horrendous. My makeup is probably everywhere." I walk past him and into the bathroom to clean myself up.

"Here, wear my hoodie to bed." He opens the door and quickly throws the hoodie in.

I jump around excitedly since I know it'll smell like him.

Sniff it. Adira says.

Of course.

I pull it on and head toward his room. He was already in bed with his arms out to hold me. I jump into them and realize this is where I belong.
