02 - Chapter Two - Atlasâ Point Of View.
I was choked up and confused, why did I see them kissing did they kiss
all the time. Frankly, I found it weird that I wanted to be all up in their
human sandwich too. What the hell was wrong with me?
As much as I wanted to call my parents or my brother and tell them to
come to rescue me I didn't. It felt wrong to tell anyone what my eyes
had witnessed this evening. My stomach grumbled and I left the hall
balcony and went to find myself some food. it would be no surprise if I
had to cook something, thank god I could cook.
I always followed my mother Quinn around and helped him cook my
whole life. I walked into the kitchen the only place I truly felt at home in
any place. I grabbed my apron and tied it around my waist. I opened
the fridge and was happy to see my parents did indeed go shopping
before they left.
My other sibling is only a wee baby and is at my grandparents house
for the week, thank god. it's not that I canât handle the baby because I
can, it's just that it's much easier and I know things won't go horribly
wrong well their gone.
I pulled a package of ground chicken out of the freezer and a pan, I
took the chicken and put it in the microwave to defrost it, when it was
defrosted I took it out of the package and threw it in the pan, I had
placed on the stove and heated it well I waited for the meat to defrost.
As the meat started to cook I added spices, then I let it simmer a little
bit before I stirred the meat. it was smelling really great down in the
kitchen, I pulled out a large pot and fill it half full of water before I set it
on the stove to boil the water.
I walked over to the t.v that was on the wall and turned it on. I changed
the channel on the T.v to play music. I danced around the kitchen, I
grabbed so Alfredo pasta and put it in the pot that was boiling away on
the stove. I pulled the ingredients the make the sauce and went the stir
the chicken so that it wouldn't burn.
Well, I mixed up the sauce to the meal, I turned the heat off both the
chicken and the noodles the water was hot enough for the noodles to
finish cooking to perfection. I heated the sauce when it was finished
using a small pot and a little bit of heat from the stove. I removed
everything from the heat and turned the stove completely off. Taking a
deep breath I wondered exactly how I was going to face the boys after
what I saw them do and how I felt about it honestly. Pushing it out of
my mind I went on doing what I was doing before.
I grabbed three plates because don't doubt the boys would be hungry
as well and I just didn't know how to cook for one person I always
cooked for way more people. I drained the water from the noodles and
mixed the sauce, the meat and the noodles into the largest pot. I
placed the pot on the stovetop once more and put food onto all three
plates.
" Alexander, Benjamin I made food your plates are on the countertop.â
" Thank," Alex said
"You" and Benjamin finished for him.
I turned to hand them there plates and they were both in only boxers, I
could see they both stepped out of the shower because there was
water running down both their chests. Benjamin leaned forward and
touched my forehead. It was odd that he was touching me in this
manner.
"Are you sick?" Benjamin asked
"You're so flushed," Alex commented
Benjamin's fingers were soft on my skin, I found myself leaning into his
touch and I know he knew felt it too because he retracted his hand like
I was the plague, I felt my heart tighten, I placed their plates back on
the countertop and I took my plate, I rushed to the small sitting room
right across from my room.
I had lost my appetite but I knew I should eat. I slowly ate my food and
read my text messages, I had one from my mother that said.
- Are you okay, are the boys treating you right, em said he would be
there you just have to call him. We are doing great so far your father is
really the star here at the alpha get together, sorry you couldn't come I
needed someone to look after the house -
I texted my mom back.
- things here are great I can't wait for you to come home-
I finished eating my food and walked back to the kitchen to wash my
dishes. I thought I was seeing things when I saw the blood drips on the
ground. I followed the trail and found Benjamin holding his nose, I
didn't make my self known because Alex and he were yelling back and
forth at each other. They had always been violent towards each other
but it never seemed to wreak their bond.
"How dare you pull away from him like that, you saw his face Ben you
hurt him," Alex screamed
"As if I meant it, Alex, he doesn't even know were his mates, clearly
there's something wrong with him,â Benjamin said holding his nose. He
still looked cute that way too. even if he was saying shit about me.
They continued to fight about me not realizing they were my mates,
but the only thing that seemed to set in was that there was something
wrong with me. They thought there was something wrong with me and
for some reason that stung. I could handle them picking on me and
calling me names as they did before, but that stung. It really hurt.
