In Between The Alphas -
Chapter 59
It is almost like Logan has some kind of sixth sense when it comes to me because we met Logan on our way to his office and his first words were. "Are you okay?" we both said yes but he shook his head and turned to me, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing is wrong," I said with a shrug not wanting him to also think I'm crazy.
It was obvious from his expression that he didn't believe me but also didn't want to push it so he gave me a tight lipped nod.
"We were actually coming to see you," Diana said breaking the awkward tension and he reluctantly turned his gaze over to her. "What can I do for you?"
"We wanted to take you up on that day off offer," she said, "Neither of us is pregnant so I think that calls for a celebration and a few beers."
An unreadable expression flashed through his face and he turned to me briefly before turning to look at Diana and shrugging.
"As long as you don't bring her back drunk" he said and she raised a brow.
"Are you serious?" she asked and he nodded, "
You don't mind me filling her up with beer and champagne?"
"I'm trusting you enough not to take her to a bar right now," he said with a warning look, "So you can do whatever you want as long as she agrees; I don't know why you're asking me." Her eyes widened considerably before she nodded and grabbed my arm.
"Well thank you I guess," she said as she pulled me away, "Let's go before he changes his mind."
"Can I have a second with Charlotte please," he said and we froze.
Diana looked at me and I nodded softly so she let go of my hand and gave me an encouraging smile.
i'll be outside waiting for you."
After she left I turned to Logan and he was staring at me with an unreadable expression on his face. That was when I remembered what I had said to him about making a decision.
"I didn't ask you to wait so I could pressure you into giving me an answer," he said softly snapping me out of my thoughts, "You can take however long you need." "Really?"I asked, "I don't want you to feel like I'm wasting your time or anything."
"I don't care if it takes months or years for you to make a decision," he said as he took a step closer, "We have all the time in the world and I'm more than ready to wait for you for however long you want me to." "Thank you,"
"You never have to thank me for doing the bare minimum Charlotte," he said and I nodded even though we both knew I would never stop thanking him, "I just wanted to know how you were feeling about everything."
I opened my mouth then closed it, "Can we talk about it at home?"
His mouth quirked up a little, "I'll never get tired of hearing you call my house your home." He said as he pulled me closer until we were almost sharing a breath,
"It makes me feel like I'm doing something right."
"You're doing everything right." I said and he smiled then his eyes fell to my lips.
"May I?" he asked and I bit my lip as I looked around.
"What if someone sees us?"
"Then they see us," he shrugged, "We're adults and we can do whatever we want."
"You know I don't even know how old you are." I said and he gave me a dimpled smile.
"I'm twenty five."
"Do you even know how old I am?"
"You're nineteen and your birthday is in December." He said matter of factly, "Can I kiss you now?"
"Yes but-" he didn't let me finish my sentence; he just leaned down and captured my lips with his in a short soft k!ss.
"You talk too much sometimes" he said and I gasped and slapped him on the arm, "I'm not complaining, I'm just stating a fact."
"You are so annoying," I said with a huff, "I"m going to catch up with Diana."
Just as I made to leave he pulled me back against him and kissed me hard. I was shocked by the intensity of the k!ss but tangled my hand into his hair and kissed him back harder.
We were so lost in ourselves that we didn't notice anyone had seen us until we heard someone clear their throat behind us. We pulled apart instantly and I felt my cheeks flame up. I made to leave his embrace but he only pulled me closer and addressed the person over my head. I let my head fall on his chest to hide my face and he ran his hand through my locks and down my back.
When he was done talking I let out a groan and slapped him on his chest lightly which made him burst out laughing.
That was so awkward,"I said and all he did was laugh,
"People are going to talk"
"Do you regret what just happened?" he asked and I thought about it for a second and shook my head, "
Then let them talk; it doesn't matter as long as we're both happy."
"Okay," I said finally and he gave me a small smile. "I better go meet Diana before she comes back here and drags me out by my hair."
He let out a bark of laughter before releasing me, "Stay safe alright,"
I nodded and hurried out to where Diana was already sitting in the car. She barely glanced my way as I rushed in and I noticed her expression too late.
"Don't say a word," I said in response to her smug look and it grew into a full blown smile.
"But I didn't even say anything" she was obviously fighting a laugh.
"You were going to," I said, "I know you."
"I wasn't going to say anything," she trailed off,"
Other than you look like you just had a quickie in the bathroom."
"We did not have a quickie, we just-," I stopped when I realized that was her aim and shot her a glare, "Nice try but I'm not telling you anything."
"The fact that I already know you did something is good enough," she said.
"Just shut up and let's go," I grumbled and she laughed but started the car anyways.
"Greg and I ship you guys together you know," she said and I turned to her with a raised brow, "Don't look at me that way, even Samantha ships you guys." "So you guys are talking about me behind my back," I said and she shrugged.
"You can call it whatever you want" she said, "You guys would make a wonderful couple and you would have cute babies."
"We are not having babies," I said with flaming cheeks, "
We aren't even having s3x."
"Yet," she added with a cheeky smile.
"Okay can we stop talking about my ex and romantic life for a minute" I said ad she let out a small chuckle but otherwise stayed silent. "Thank you."
She stayed quiet for a full minute before continuing," I'm just saying that you would make an awesome Luna."
"I'm not going to be Luna," I said immediately and she gave me a look that clearly said she knew something I didn't.
"If you say so,"
