Life After the Storm

As I am waking up, I then realize I am no longer outside but inside on the couch. I am not really sure how I got here, I jumped up and ran to Jayden's room. Wanting to check on him to make sure that he is ok, promising him that I would be there first thing in the morning, not wanting to break my promise.

When I approach his room, I see Landon with his head down on Jayden's bed, they are still sleeping. I leave the bedroom quietly, trying not to wake them. I hear someone in the kitchen I go to, and I see it's Dean.

“Good morning Dean, how did you sleep? I wanted to tell you thank you for carrying me in last night. I didn't mean to fall asleep.”

“Good morning to you also Lilly but I am not sure what you are talking about I did not carry you anywhere.”

“Oh, I had fallen asleep outside on the step last night I think I did anyway, but when I woke up this morning I was on the couch. I thought that you came out and carried me in.”

“Sorry Lilly It wasn't me last night I thought you went home.”

“I was going to go home, but I could not bring myself to leave Jayden, so I just stayed and accidentally fell asleep.”

“Well, would you like some coffee, then?”

“I would love some, thank you so much.”

As I get myself some coffee I stand there wondering did Landon carry me in last night. He was so mad at me. I honestly think he was just looking for someone to blame. I am not sure of his history and what all has happened to him, I just hope in time he will tell me. 

I then hear footsteps as I look to see who it is, and I notice it's Landon walking down the hall to the kitchen. I want to say good morning how did you sleep, but the words can't escape my mouth. I want to ask him if he carried me in last night, but I don't. I am just silent. I want to avoid upsetting him already this morning. 

Dean looks at Landon “good morning, would you like some coffee Alpha,” he asked him?

“Thank you, that would be great. I would love some coffee,” he responds.

I am surprised that he's not asking me to get out. He was so angry with me yesterday, but it wasn't my fault. He should be more worried about how the rouges are getting into his territory. If the attack didn't happen to Jayden, it could have happened to anyone in his pack. He needs to put out more guards to protect his pack. I know his pack is not a very big pack, which isn't good at all. If his pack members need help on the learning defense, I could always assist in training them. I am not sure if I should even say something I want to avoid offending him.
