He is almost fucking sixteen years old and he doesn't know how to take care of himself?

Ace sent one of his men to my house so that they could tell me. They said that Killian was apparently grounded, and they don't want him sneaking out or anything so now I'm stuck babysitting that fucker.

I pull into the De Luca residence and park my car in the front. I am just getting Killian and then we are leaving ‘cause I'm not staying here.

I walk inside the house and close the door behind me. I hear a phone going off in the kitchen, so I walk towards there and see Killian who is resting his head on the counter as he sits in one of the stool chairs in front of the island.

His phone is ringing but he makes no move to pick it up.

I walk towards him and bring his head up, holding his hair.

He looks like a fucking mess.

I let go of his hair making his head fall back on the counter.

"Ow, you jackass!" Killian whines and then brings his head up to look at me. "That fucking hurt."

"What the fuck is wrong with you?" I ask harshly.

"Isn't it obvious?" Killian raises his eyebrow and looks at me. "I'm hungover," Killian sneers.

I shake my head lightly and walk to the fridge. I open the door and grab two water bottles. I hand one to Killian and he takes a sip out of it.

"What did you do last night?" I ask before leaning against the kitchen counter across from Killian.

"Went to this party with my friends. I was still grounded for sneaking out on your guy's birthday."

"Who grounded you? Aria or Ace?"

"My dad. He saw me sneaking back inside my room when he was crossing the hall," Killian says while rubbing his head. "Fuck, I shouldn’t have drank that much whisky."

God, Killian looks like a fucking mess.

I have never seen him so, what's the word?

Fucked up?

"You good?" I ask while raising my eyebrow at him.

Killian looks up at me and then smiles. "Better than ever," he says in a sarcastic tone at the same time I hear the doorbell ring.

"You expecting anyone?"

"Nope."

"Get your shit ready. We're going to my house," I say before walking out of the kitchen and down the hall to the front door.

I open the door and see Cameron.

What the fuck is Cameron doing here? Didn't Thalia end things with this fucker.

God, I want to punch his face so bad.

"Hey, Alexander, right?" Cameron asks and I lean against the door frame and raise my eyebrows at him.

"What do you want?"

"Is Thalia home?"

I clench my fist and jaw and trail my eyes down his body.

God, he still dresses like a fucking teenager.

Pathetic.

He looks way too fucking safe.
