Chapter 13
Today was a very hectic day. Brayden and his sister were coming back early for some odd reason.
Roxy and I had to get ready for our trip so we were packing even though we had to leave tomorrow.
I didn't know what to pack. I knew I would need the necessary like toiletries and clothes. Would I need
anything else?
Maybe some snacks for the ride. Or a med kit just in case somebody got hurt I don't really know.
I sighed closing my suitcase for now and leaning it against the wall near the door.
I decided to go see how Roxy's packing was going.
I knocked on her door before a big bang came.
I heard her groan loudly before she opened the door.
The agitated look on her face soon turned into a smile when she saw me.
“Hey I thought you were packing” She asked, rubbing her head and I nodded kissing injury gently.
“I just needed some help figuring out what to pack and I wanted to see how your packing was going” I
said, glancing behind her at the mess that covered her room.
“Come in” She said and I nodded following her into her room shutting the door behind me.
“What was that big bang” I glanced around seeing nothing out of the ordinary besides the pile of
clothes on her floor.
“It's a theory about how the earth started…” She began speaking an amused grin plastering on her
face while I rolled my eyes at her.
“I mean in your room just now that caused you to hurt your head” I said and she laughed.
“I dropped my suitcase trying to get it from my closet shelf” She said and I nodded.
She was too short to reach it that's what the problem was.
I helped her pack grabbing stuff she couldn't reach on the shelf.
How did she even get it up there in the first place?
It was almost lunch time when we eventually finished.
We stood over her bags trying to figure out what to put back, because she brought what I believe to be
more clothes than needed so her suitcases wouldn't shut.
Finally after a very exhausting fight to put the clothes back we were done.
We put her 3 suitcases against the wall near her door and went to my room.
We packed a few things it didn’t even take us half the amount of time it did with her because I wasn't
obsessed with my clothes.
Roxy and I flopped on my bed tired from the whole packing experience. I hope I'll never have to repeat
that again.
We were both drifting off. I held her by my side pulling her as close as possible.
I hope we wake up in time to greet Brayden even though I was a little bit worried.
I knew he hurt me a lot and reminded me all the time of my life from the past but I didn’t hate him.
I always learned it was better to forget and forgive your life would be miserable if you always focused
on the negatives.
I pulled Roxy even closer to me allowing the darkness to completely take over.
I was sleeping well, not a problem in the world until there was a knock on the door.
I peeked one of my eyes open, glancing at the clock it was 7:30 half an hour until dinner.
I groaned laying Roxy beside me heading over to open the door.
I rubbed the sleep out my eyes before pulling it open to a very unexpected guest
It was Roxy's mom and she smiled once she glanced past me at her daughter.
“You 2 were asleep” She asked and I nodded.
“Packing with her is a real job it takes a whole lot of energy” I said, making her mother laugh.
“I know trust me...anyways I just wanted to tell you that Brayden and his sister are supposed to arrive in
like 5 minutes” She said and I nodded waiting until she left to shut the door.
I walked over to Roxy shaking her gently for her to only smack my arm away.
“Roxy wake up we need to go greet Brayden and his sister” I said and she groaned.
“I don't wanna to wake up” She said pouting cutely and I smiled.
She sounded like such a little kid it was actually quite adorable.
I knew what to do hopefully it worked or I'll be looking stupid.
I pressed my lips against hers and she reacted immediately.
I pulled away and smiled at Roxy who was now fully awake.
“You better be glad I like you” She said glaring at me playfully standing up from my bed. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
I stood up and she wrapped her arm around me leaning against me.
We walked downstairs to join everyone as they waited for Brayden to arrive.
I noticed Rachel wasn't back from visiting her friends I guess she'll miss it.
Soon Brayden arrived hugging his sister to his side as everyone shouted their welcomes.
He smiled at his sister who ran over to hug Roxy causing her to let go of me.
“Hey Brayden” I said and he smiled nodding at me.
Soon everyone headed to the kitchen to eat and someone grabbed my shoulder stopping me.
I turned around looking at who stopped me. It was Brayden.
“What's up” I asked him and he sighed.
“I wanted to say sorry for all I've done. I know it isn't enough for all the stuff I did but I really am sorry”
He said and I smiled.
“It's okay I forgive you no hard feelings right” I said and he smiled.
“No hard feelings” He said and I smiled.
Roxy then joined back by my side talking to Brayden's sister.
We all sat together eating dinner. It was awesome like we all were a little family.
Brayden stayed downstairs with his sister who was still eating while me and Roxy headed upstairs.
I heard the door opening so I guessed it was Rachel.
Me and Roxy heard a scream and darted down the hallway glancing down at where the front door was.
Brayden was holding Rachel. We were a little confused until Rachel yelled out that Brayden was her
mate.
“Wait, was your sister not here when Brayden turned 18 how are they just figuring this out?” I asked
glancing over at Roxy.
She shook her head “No Roxy left as soon as she turned 18 they are a year apart in age” I nodded a
little shocked from the completely random occurrence.
We smiled down as they both kissed each other joyful chatter filling the room.
“I hope you're my mate” She said and I nodded smiling. “I hope so too,” I said pulling her into a kiss.
