Chapter 2 : How We Started
The night was silent. The sky was clear, with no cloud in sight. No, it wasn't full moon night if you ask me, so there's no reason to worry about 'unusual' things running around at night. No, everyone was pretty much asleep in the safety of their houses, including me, Theo Raeken, living with my foster family, Scott and his mother Melissa McCall.
I could hear my alpha's stable heartbeat. He seemed to enjoy sleeping together with me. Well it's already two years and four months. A lot has happened, not only between us, but also our pack. Yes, our 'supernatural' pack. We have been through a lot of situation, mostly dangerous ones, even losing some members of our pack.
I remember the first day I arrived here, after living in a dull, out-of-date orphanage for years. It's been a while since the last time I saw Scott and Stiles. Was it the sixth grade or the fifth grade? I couldn't remember exactly when.
It was Sunday when I arrived. The sky was very cloudy after continuous light rain all morning. The uneventful trip I had was somehow replaced by a sense of familiarity at the sight of the new house that I'll be residing in.
My handlers walked to the front doors and knocked. Melissa opened the door and they exchanged words. I knew it will be a bit long, so I looked at my surrounding. The scenery remained unchanged even after three years, it was surprising to know that things have changed so much, but they stayed the same regardless.
My handlers called me and allowed me to step inside. The first memorable thing I remember was a heartfelt hug given by Scott once he saw who the foster child... well, the foster teenager was.
I remember my first dinner with the McCalls. Surprisingly, Stiles also came by to see who the foster teenage is. The expression on his face was kind of hilarious.
Melissa, my new mother-figure, filled me in on why the orphanage sent me all the way here. It seemed that as I reached my teenage year, I will need to socialize more with people. Unfortunately, almost everyone else in the boring place was underage kids. They deemed it unfavorable for my well-being; I need people of my own age, fellow teenagers they said. But I never had any close friends, and the only relative I know that is kind enough to have me around was Scott's family.
Yeah, we were pretty much threesome ever since elementary school, but it changed when we stepped into middle school. My family had to move out of Beacon Hills so that my sister can pursue her dreams and get the best education at a somewhat prestigious school. The three of us were never together again, until now.
After the dinner, Melissa showed me my room, which is nice and neat. But then I made a request; would you mind if I share a room with Scott? Of course, being the generous woman she is, Melissa said yes. But the downside is; we had to move the spare bed into Scott's room. Terrific.
Fortunately, we were able to lift the bed into his room in a short time. Unfortunately, we had to move Scott's table into the other room as well. It was amusing, especially with Stiles ranting about 'improper room decor'. Yeah, right, he was always the jokester.
It was around 10 at night when we finally done with the work. Melissa went back to her room, while Scott and I were preparing to get some good sleep. The air was slightly hot, so we simply slept with our shorts only.
As we lay down on our fused bed, we inexplicably went closer than I thought. I didn't realize that my left hand was laid on his waist until he asked me if I want to cuddle him. Of course the question was meant to be comedic, but then we simply shrugged it off and hugged each other as we fell asleep.
