Chapter 18 - Triangles Are Confusing
What is it with strangers and being like magnetized to me?
"Ouch." I winced.
"So maybe you should explain to me, why you were in trouble with the Fereldos?" he raised an eyebrow
I did the same, looking up at him. His bathroom wasn't the biggest of all, so we were pretty close right now.
"How do you know them?" I asked
He hesitated, " Let's just say, the past is in the past." he swallowed hard, making me realize that he was staring down at me. I could see the passion in his eyes, the want, the need to kiss me, and for some reason I went with it.
So he tried. He started to lean in but he slipped on some blood and slammed into my face.
"Dude, you're really bad at this." I laughed, rubbing my face where he hit.
He put his arm around his neck, "Sorry, it's uhh, been awhile."
"Clearly," I laughed. I got up from the toilet that I was sitting on and pushed past him. I was hungry and I'm not about to kiss someone while my stomach growls. But when I opened the fridge, there was nothing in there.
"Yeah, I usually eat out." he admitted,
I raised an eyebrow, and gave him a questioning look. Eat out?
"No, not like that!" he exclaimed
"Yeah I'm so sure." I smirked
"I'm not like that," he said, putting an arm around my back. I tensed. I just met this guy, literally today, I don't even know his name, and he's acting like we've been together for years. I don't know about this.....
"I'm Jake, by the way." he added
Well now that I know his name....
"And you owe me." he added again.
"What?" I said, pulling away from him.
"I saved your life from those life draining, blood drinking , tacky ass mother fuckers back there, I think you owe me at least something." he explained. but I caught it. He said blood drinking people. He knows.
"Blood drinking?" I asked innocently
"You didn't know? Why were they attacking you then?" he questioned
"I knew they were vampires, one of them is my ex-lov-.....I mean boyfriend."
"Who." his mood got serious.
"Thats none of your business Jake." I said firmly
He stared at me for a good minute. It looked like he was trying to make up his mind or something.
"Can you be open minded?" he asked
"Sure." when you've seen the things I have, you have to be.
He took my hand and led me into his bedroom. Before I could ask him what he was doing, he started undressing.
"Woah there." I warned
"Open minded?" he reminded me
I nodded, "Right."
As he was undressing, I couldn't help think about size. I mean I've seen Nicks and it was pretty okay. Alexander was probably a bit under average. But when I saw Jake in his underwear, I could tell it was big. Especially since, he was a bit excited.
I looked up at his face and I blushed. I'm flattered that he would think of me that way. But his face got red too.
"I'm sorry." he explained
"It's alright." I assured him
He was a bit like Nick in a way. Warm, tan, strong. But his abs were more defined, like he worked them out more. And his hair spiked different ways not just one direction.
I noticed that his eyes were turning a greenish blue, glowing in the now dark room.
"What's going on, Jake?" that was the first time I had said his name aloud. It had a certain ring to it.
My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a deep growl. I hadn't paid attention to Jake and now it seemed that he was gone. And a wolf staring into my soul.
"Easy there." I warned. Fear was sweating off my body in waves.
Another deep growl emerged from the wolf. I gulped in fear. As I backed up, it couldn't help but notice that the underwear Jake was wearing was now torn and ripped, lying on the floor.
"Jake?" I asked
A sound then came from the wolf making me calm down. A whimper of sorts. A confirmation. The wolf laid down on the floor and breathed out loudly. Loud enough for me to notice it was a sign.
I reached out slowly to touch it's fur. As my hand traveled through the air, the wolf's ears perked up and it's head sat up.
Once my hand made contact with its mane, I felt 100% better.
A soft purr of sorts came from the wolf. Really? A wolf? Why do I have to get mixed up in all of this?
The wolf got up and nudged my shoulder. Wow, insecure much?
"Do you want me to leave the room so you can get some clothes on?" I asked, petting its head.
A growl came from it. I guess that's a yes.
I left the room and went back to the kitchen. My stomach was now grumbling even louder than before. When I opened the cabinet, it was like heaven. Peanut butter, bread, and I found some milk in the fridge. I made my self a sandwich and are while I listened to Jake rummage around him room. When I went in there, it was really dirty so I think that's what he's doing. Cleaning. I finished and put everything away and went to look at his bookshelves. Before I could, the door to his bedroom swung open.
"What did you think?" he asked
I shrugged, " Nick told me werewolves don't exist."
"Well, he sounds like a liar." he made his way towards me and then wrapped his arms around my body. His hug was different though, more welcoming.
I finally hugged him back and it didn't even phase me that we stood there for twenty minutes.
"Bryce?" he asked. I snapped back into reality.
"Yes?" I yawned. I've had a long day. And now I'm full from the sandwich.
"You tired?" he questioned.
"Yeah." I half said
He pulled away from the hug a bit and looked down at me. He was some what taller than me and it bothered me.
I leaned in and connected our lips before he could say or do anything else. This kiss was a lot different than the others that I have had. It was more meaningful. Like I was supposed to kiss him.
"You're good." I smiled, my heart jumped as he picked me up bridal style and carried me to the bedroom. He laid me down and covered me up with some of the blankets. Then he went around the other side and scooted up next to me. I let him get close enough so I could hear his breathing before falling fast asleep. Ic an't believe the amount of time it took for me to fall for him, but I was already in love with him.
