Chapter 20

It's been about a week since the whole Fiona fiasco. I've healed up nicely since then and my bruises are all gone. I feel kind of bad for treating Gavin like that... I was just so angry about him and Fiona, that I unleashed my anger on him... I even went as far as to tell him about Jason thinking we are mates.

School has been weird. Gavin has been avoiding talking to me. Tori tries to make it less awkward for us in Anatomy, but it just makes things more awkward. Like a few days ago, she noticed the tension between Gavin and me so when the teacher told us to pick groups of two, she figured it would be best for us to talk out our problems so she forced us to work together.

Lets just say Gavin and I failed that lab because we didn't talk once. Maybe I should apologize... It's just so hard admitting that I was wrong.

On the bright side of things. Kari and the babies are coming home from the hospital in a couple of hours. I will be joining Bryce in the process of moving them back here. I can't wait, I need some form of good news in my life. Having those two little bundles of joy in the pack house will surely brighten my mood.

"Evelyn could you and Jason come help me with these cribs? I have no idea how they work..." Bryce says as he pops his head into the game room. I smile and pause Mario Kart.

"Of course Bryce." I turn to Jason. "Come on!" I say excitedly. I reach down and grab his hand. I drag him from the couch and follow Bryce all the way up to his room. When we reach it, Bryce walks toward the back of their giant room.

He kneels down in front of a box. The box is labeled 'baby crib: pink' I laugh. Its so blunt, but the crib itself is so cute. I wish that I had a nice crib like this when I was a child.

"For some reason I can't figure out how to set it up." Bryce says frustratedly.

All the materials are scattered onto the floor. I bend down next to him and pick up a piece of paper that was mixed in with the pieces of crib.

"Have you tried using the directions?" I ask him. He gives me a funny look.

"People actually use those things?" He asks me honestly. I laugh.

"Yes, that's what they are here for! Now lets see." I open up the directions then read them. "First you need to..." I proceed to instruct both Jason and Bryce on how to build both the cribs. We get them set up and placed in their designated spots in the room.

Bryce smiles and puts a small pillow in each of their cribs. He doesn't put in a blanket because apparently babies can choke easily... We don't want that.

Bryce thanks us and sends Jason on his way but Bryce and I need to go to the doctor's house and get Kari and the kids. Poor Kari must be exhausted. She has been alone with those little crazy babies for far too long.

When we get to the pack doctor's house everything is all set and ready to go. The kids are in their travel carriers and Kari is all dressed. I take Rain in her carrier and Bryce takes Ray. Kari is still a little weak so she just has to walk herself out to the car. Don't want to push her too hard. We load everyone in and take the short ride back to the pack house. Once we pull in and hop out, I grab Rain and join Bryce and Kari as we walk toward the front door.

When we get to there, there is a huge hoard of pack members waiting for us. People approach us and peer over our shoulders too look at the newest members of our pack. One of them, most likely Ray, will even be our future Alpha. That's why everyone is so interested. It's almost as is the queen and king just had children. It would be a big deal.

"They are so precious."

"Beautiful kids, you must be proud."

"How adorable, what are their names?"

So many words and questions go spiraling around me. I don't know what to answer first. Luckily Bryce comes to the rescue and smiles graciously. He answers all their questions and even allow some of the women to hold Ray. Wow, props to him. He makes a great Alpha, I could never lead a pack... I would be too nervous. Plus I'm pretty bad at taking charge.

Kari taps me on the shoulder and I turn to her. "You want to go upstairs? I'm feeling pretty lethargic and I want some rest..." She says. I nod.

"Of course." I look at Bryce who is still holding Ray in his carrier while talking to the pack about his new children. "Let me go get Ray, then we can go upstairs and put them to bed." I say. She smiles at me graciously.

"Thank you Evie." She adds sincerely. I nod and make my way over to Bryce. Unfortunetly there are so many people surrounding him that I can barley squeeze through. I finally find a small opening and I work my way to him. When I get to him, I tap on his shoulder. He looks down at me.

"Kari and I are going to bring the kids up to bed." I say. After a quick pause I add, "I'm going to need Ray..." He nods in approval and hands me Ray.

"Are you sure you don't need my help bringing them upstairs?" He asks. I smile.

"I'm fine. You stay here and calm down the pack." he laughs then turns back to the nosey women who want all the latest gossip about his children.

Kari and I proceed to go up stairs with me holding both kids. Even though they are little, they are still kind of heavy... My arms are getting tired from holding both of them in their carriers. Kari opens up her door. I walk straight to the cribs that we set up earlier. I place Ray down in front of his green bed and Rain down in front of her pink one.

Kari joins me at the cribs and picks Rain up. She gazes at her lovingly then places the child down in her crib. Rain giggles for a moment but then proceeds to yawn. Kari and I laugh at her cuteness.

I pick big boy Ray up and he wiggles around in my arms. Geez, if you want to be put down that's all you have to say. I slowly place him into his crib and he moves his hands up and grabs his little pillow. The pillow is tied down to the bed so he can't move it very far. He lets out a cry that pierces my ears. Oh geez!

I reach down and scoop him up in my arms. I rock him a little but his cries don't cease . I look at Kari. Her tired eyes still managed to give Ray a loving glance and she approaches me. She takes him from my arms and gently rocks him while humming. He begins to quiet down and looks at his mom.

Just then Rain starts to cry. Well I guess I can go fail miserably at quieting her down as well... I walk over to her crib and pick her up. As soon as I touch her she quiets down. She gazes at me for a moment then reaches up to touch my face. This time I comply and bring my face down to her hand.

As soon as her hand makes contact with my face the room goes dark and a stinging pain flashes through my head.

I look down and see nothing in my hands. Wait wasn't I just holding Rain? I glance around me and as my eyes adjust to the darkness I start to see that I'm still in Kari's room. I look at the bed and see that Kari is asleep, but Bryce isn't in the room. Huh.

I walk over to the cribs and see both babies fast asleep. Well this is normal, why the hell am I here?

Suddenly I see something flash in my peripherals. I turn and see Gavin sanding next to the window. He slowly approaches the cribs. Just then there is a movement from the bed and it creeks. Both Gavin and I turn and see Kari changing her sleeping position. He lets out a sigh then continues to peer over the cribs. He reaches down and grabs Rain from her comfy bed.

What the hell is he doing? Why is he in here?

He reaches down to get Ray as well. Oh my god. Is he taking Kari's kids? Why the hell would he do that?

I try to tell him to stop but no words escape my lips. That can only mean one thing. I'm in a vision right now.

Gavin walks back over to where he came in from and closes his eyes to prepare to teleport.

Suddenly I'm back in Kari's room and it's day time. Rain is still holding onto my face and she starts to giggle.

"Evie are you okay? You look a little pale." Kari says to me. I gently grab Rain's hand and look up at Kari with a smile.

"I'm completely fine. Just a little tired, nothing to be worried about." I say.

I don't know what it is, but for some reason I just can't tell Kari about this vision... Maybe it's the fact that I don't want her to freak out or maybe it's something more... Either way, I'm going to take care of it. There is no way I'm going to let Gavin take Kari's kids away. That's just not okay.

"Alright then. Well once they settle down I will let them nap for an hour, then I need to feed them. After that I can go to bed. Want to help me do all of that? Bryce can't help me tonight he has to go a few towns over and meet with the other pack's Alpha. Apparently we are having boundary issues, but realistically, some of their men keep crossing onto our land without permission." She says and rolls her eyes.

I laugh. "Of course I will help, that's why I'm here!" Rain closes her eyes and curls up closer to me in my arms. I will never get tired of seeing these cute faces.

*******

I can't sleep. I know Gavin is coming tonight. The question is, when is he coming. I know it's at night I just don't know when. Kari's asleep right now and so are the kids. I sigh and play with my hair nervously. What if I'm too late when I get there?

I glance at the clock in my room. 11:40. Maybe I should just go wait out side Kari's room and listen for noises. Yeah that sounds like a plan.

I head out of my room in my pajamas. I'm wearing a tank top and sweat pants. As I step out into the hallway I'm suddenly grabbed and squeezed into a hug.

I let out a surprised squeal then I'm placed down onto the floor. I look up and see Jason. I give him a half smile.

"I was just coming by to see you. What a coincidence that you were coming out of your room." He says. I laugh.

"Yeah... Why were you coming to see me?" I ask him. A slight blush forms on his face and he brings his hand up to scratch the back of his head.

"Well... I wanted to know if you would want to come watch a movie in my room with me." Oh... like a date kind of thing... Wow he's never really formally asked me to do something like this. It's so different... But I can't think about that right now. I have babies to protect.

"Jason that sounds really nice." I glance to my left then back at him. "I just really need to be somewhere right now. Can I do a rain check?" I ask him. I see sadness creep onto his face but he nods.

"Sure. That's fine." Oh geez now I feel really bad. I want to make him happy what do I do?

"Thanks so much Jason your the best." I reach up and give him a kiss on the cheek. He smirks.

"Is that all I get?" I give him a curious look and he bends down and kisses me on the lips. Shock fills my body. I guess I shouldn't be that shocked, we did make out at George's party.

I kiss him back lightly and he pulls away and smiles. "Maybe we can do it tomorrow night then?" He asks. I nod my head.

"Tomorrow sounds good." I say. He smiles and turns to walk away.

"Awesome, see you then Ev."

"See you Jay." Well that was a lot different then out normal talks together... I still don't know if I like it or not. This is such a weird feeling.

I make my way to Kari's door and listen. Okay it sounds pretty quiet in there. Just then I hear a light creak coming from what sounds like the bed. I freeze.

Oh wait, it must just be Kari moving. I let out a sigh and sit down on the floor. Then it hits me. Wait Kari moved in my vision! She made that exact same creaking sound. I stand up immediately and open up the door. The light from the hallway filters into the room and I see Gavin standing at the window.

"Gavin stop." I whisper. He looks up at me and freezes. I let out a sigh and shut the door behind me. Darkness once again takes over the room and I take a few steps closer to him. "Please, you have to put them back." I plead.

"Evelyn, I can't..." He whispers. I frown.

"No, Gavin listen to me. You talked to me about your sister. You know how you feel about her? Well imagine how Kari and Bryce would feel if you did that to their kids. Why are you trying to take them anyway? What kind of messed up person tries to steal new borns." I whisper angrily to him. He looks at me.

"Evelyn... I'm not saying I want to do this. There isn't a choice."

"What do you mean?" I ask angrily. "You always have a choice Gavin. Don't make the wrong one here." He looks down at the kids in his arms. He lets out a sigh. "Please just let me have them." I beg.

I take a few steps closer. I see Gavin look back out the window then down at the kids in his hands. I slow my steps and take one last step toward him. I place my hand on his arm.

"Please." I whisper. Suddenly I have both kids in my arms and Gavin is gone. I take a few steps toward the window and see a few wolves in the tree line. Gavin appears on the grass in the next few seconds. Then he shifts and runs into the woods. The other wolves follow after him. Then they are gone.

What the hell just happened?

I look down at the sleeping kids and sigh in relief. Thank god they are safe. I don't know what I would do if they weren't. I place them back into their separate cribs and wander back over to the window. I glance outside.

It's weird though. I didn't have a fear that Gavin was going to hurt them, but he gave off this weird vibe. Either way I'm pissed at him. I can't believe he would try a stunt like this. He sure as hell is going to get a piece of my mind in school tomorrow.
