Chapter six
The next couple of days were awkward. It felt weird, but glorious getting kisses from two guys. Gabriel always kissed me with such passion, leaving me wanting more from him. Caleb, on the hand, did the little nibbles that would drive me crazy.
Gabriel thought it would be good idea if we all spend the day together, so one day he called into work, saying that he wouldn't be there.
"Where do you work?" I asked as I watched him put the phone back on the charger.
"I worked as a intern at a Veterinary hospital in town," He said as he sat at the table. I turned to Caleb on my right.
"And where do you work at?" I asked.
"Intern at a general hospital in town," He said. Hearing them talked about town made me thinking on where I really was.
"Where I am?" I asked. They looked confused at my question. "Okay. Let me rephrase the sentence. What state am I in?" Both looked at each other.
"Oklahoma," Gabriel said. Oklahoma???? Holy shit. I have must have run pretty fast to get here then.
"What city is closet?" I asked.
"Boise City. We live close to the border into the next state," Caleb answered. Both of them looked at me and saw the look on my face.
"Where are you from?" Caleb asked.
"La Push, Washington," I said with a chuckled. I saw their faces. "Yeah. Exactly what I thought."
"Wow. You must have been running pretty fast to get here," Caleb said.
"Yeah. I just wanted to get away, especially after what happen that day…" I trailed off. I closed my eyes to stop the on-coming tears. Since when did I become such a crybaby? I thought as I rubbed my eyes, furiously. I felt a warm pair of hands out my hands from my eyes. I opened my eyes to find both brothers looked at me with compassion in their eye. Gabriel held my hands.
"Leah, Me and my brother love and care for you. We will do whatever we can to make you happy. You know that, right?" Gabriel said.
"Only because you have too," I mumbled. Caleb sighed.
"That may be true, but I think if me and Gabriel didn't imprint on you, we would have still fallen for you," He said. I sat there, looking at both of them.
"But it's impossible to have the both of you in a relationship," I said.
"No, it's not. You have already admitted that you love us both, Leah," Gabriel said as he stood up. I sat there, looking down at my lap, with blush on my cheeks. That was true. I had admitted that I love both Gabriel and Caleb. I felt something touch my shoulder. I looked up. Caleb smiled.
"Don't worry. We will find a way to work this out," He said, "now, let's make something to eat." He got up and went into the kitchen. Gabriel followed him. I watched them, and then looked outside through the window. I got up and went into the kitchen.
I stared for a moment, and then went for it. I wrapped an arm around each of them. I felt them tensed up for a minute and then relaxed. I watched them made something to eat.
"I have an idea," I said. Gabriel turned his head to look at me.
"Oh? What's it?" He asked.
"Let's go for a picnic," I said, " it's really nice outside. And we don't even have to go far. We can have it in the backyard." I watched them as they thought about it.
"Okay. It sounds like a good idea," Caleb said. I smiled.
"Great. I will go get a blanket from upstairs then," I said as I let them go and went upstairs. I was going to try with both of them. I grabbed a blanket from the linen closet and went back downstairs. The boys had finished making the sandwiches and packed them in a basket. They also added fruits and honey to the basket as well.
"Ready?" I asked. They both nodded. We left the house and climbed in Gabriel's truck. We drove in and around town until we found the park. Gabriel pulled in and parked the truck. We grabbed the stuff and wandered into the park. We chose a shady spot under a tree for the picnic.
Caleb and I spread the blanket. Gabriel set the basket down and then sat down on the blanket. We followed after that. I pulled out the sandwich that the boys made and gave one to each of them. I unwrapped and took a bite of it.
"Tell us about the pack that you were in," Gabriel said.
"Which one? I was in two," I stated as I took another bite.
"Both, I guess," Gabriel asked.
"Well, the first pack that I belonged to was complete and utter hell. My ex-boyfriend is the Alpha of pack and he made my life hell. He was the one who made me cut my hair," I said with distain in my voice. Thinking back, I could never figure out why I even love Sam. Two low growls brought me out of my thoughts. I looked at them. "Guys, stop. I am over him," I said and surprised myself. I was over Sam.
Caleb touched my cheek and then replaced it with his lips. I blushed at the little contact.
"And the other pack, what was that one like?" Caleb asked me.
"Much better. In fact, I was Beta of the pack," I said with pride. They both grinned.
"Do you miss it?" Gabriel asked. That question made me think for a little bit.
"Yeah, I guess. But I suppose it just because my brother is in the pack as well," I said. we finished eating our sandwich in silence after that. After finishing the sandwich, I laid down on the blanket. I felt one of the boys laid down beside me, and then other one on the other side.
It was so peaceful, that I fell asleep and this time, for the first time in a while, I felt safe again.
