"I don't do relationships but I'm incredibly jealous at the moment. I've only felt this way once and I don't know how to be around you Winter." He pulls me gently into his arms and places a kiss on my head.

"Who was the other person?" I ask being nosy, but at the same time, I don't know what to say to him about feeling jealous. We aren't in a relationship and he hasn't asked me for anything other than a few kisses yet. It was him that suggested we take things slow.

"My childhood friend turned girlfriend for a short while. She passed away a while ago." He says, looking so sad that I go to him. I wrap my arms around his waist and rest my head on his chest. His arms tighten around me.

"I'm sorry," I say squeezing him tightly.

"I put her in danger, being near me is danger and well, I don't know how to push you away." He says with a frown.

"What do you mean?" I ask looking up at him in confusion.

"Hey guys, we are going to the café in town for breakfast. I'm not trying to cook again." Alex shouts down the hallway before she gets to my door. She smiles fondly at me from the doorway. I try not to chuckle at the black ash on her cheek. Her hair is all over the place and she looks flustered.

"Babe, you could have let me help," Drake says coming behind her and wrapping her in his arms. She melts against him, reminding me how I'm in Wyatt’s arms and I somehow forgot because it feels right.

"Shush you." She mutters to him. I watch as he wipes her cheek clean and she looks up at him adoration. They both seem to have forgotten we are here. I read about this kind of love, a love that makes you forget anything else in the world. A love that can stop time for you and them. I feel lucky just to be able to see it.

"Sounds good, we can meet you there. I'm sure Winter needs to get ready." Wyatt says, his warm breath moving my hair. I look up at Wyatt as he talks, everything about him draws me in. I know I’m falling for him, even if I don’t want to, I don’t want to be vulnerable. I finally pull my gaze from Wyatt to Alex and Drake.

"I won't be long," I say, narrowing my eyes at her wagging eyebrows. I know she loves finding me hugging Wyatt, it’s like her grand scheming has finally planned out.
