*Landon's P.O.V.* -around the time Sapphire called him-
"Thanks for helping me get my dad to the car. He's the one that wanted to leave right after the party, but instead drank for an hour with your dad, so now I'm the one who has to drive and take care of my father who acts like a 5-year-old when he's drunk, and to top it off when I tried to take him to his room so he can sleep it off and we would leave early in the morning, he threw a tantrum." Lee sighed into his hands and then ran his fingers through his hair.
I shrugged in response. "I mean it wasn't that big of a deal, just don't go on windy (not the weather, like the wind up toys) roads. Don't want him throwing up in the car."
I stuffed my hands in my pockets as I felt it get colder. "I don't understand how they are camping right now, It's starting to get really cold especially at night."
Lee chuckled as he closed the trunk after putting their bags in. "I don't know man, also while I'm gone for these next two weeks, no doing anything that will screw things up between you and Saph, try to be nice, I really don't want to be ref while I'm 1000 miles away ok? Also as much as I know you want to tell her that you know, don't. If what she said to Alec is true then you definitely need to not get on her bad side so that she will end up picking you, yes you do have over a month, but my sister does hold grudges because shes really petty most of the time, depending what the situation is. Show her that you are the better guy and that she should choose you, so no more sleeping around, no more flavors of the week, and no more flirting. Now can you agree that you will do these things while I'm gone?" He gave me a stern look as he crossed his arms.
I nodded my head and he loosened his expression as he leaned against the car. "Good, also don't forget that Trinna, the alpha's daughter from the pack we are heading to should be arriving around 7 tomorrow, and your pops voluntold you to watch over her until she gets used to the place, as she is the only reason why we are getting this accord since she wants to go to spend her senior year in the city. I have to get going before this grown man wakes up."
He goes to turn to get into the car when all of a sudden "interior crocodile alligator" starts playing from my phone. Lee turns back around with a confused expression. "Your sister... she took my phone and put her number is and set that as her ringtone. This is actually the first time she has called me. I texted her once but it was left on read. I was actually thinking she never put her number in my phone."
He made an "O" shape with his mouth has motioned to my phone. "Well are you going to answer it or do I have to answer it for you?"
I sighed as I took out my phone and accepted the call. Normally I'd be thrilled to hear that tone but it's what 1 in the morning, and it can't be an emergency otherwise she would have called someone else. "Hello?"
Right after I said hello I was greeted with half of a cursing which caused me to give Lee a surprised look. He looked at me curiously and I put the call on speaker and muted myself. "Sapphire... just cursed, she never curses!"
Lee chuckled as the conversation continued. "You are a pretty princess, but James is a prettier princess. James, I get my good night song, right? Pwease I'll love you more than anyone."
"Yea, I'm pretty sure she's drunk, hence the cursing." Lee said laughing at her calling them a pretty princess, which I joined shortly after.
We heard a long sigh and then James answered. "Yes, Sapphire I will sing you your good night song, that I only sing when you are sad or drunk."
We both chuckled as Lee ran his fingers through his hair again. "Yea she's drunk... at least she called you and not one of the parents otherwise she's get scolded and that's a scolding I would love to see." Lee and I are very aware that they drink sometimes up at the waterfall considering we have also joined them a few times, though every time Sapphire would always only take a couple of sips and then hand it off to someone.
All of a sudden we heard some rustling and then Sapphire spoke again. "My pretty pretty pretty princess I love you so much." we heard her say while drawing out the "o" in love and so.
"Oh, this is going to be fun to bring up tomorrow. Too bad we aren't recording this as evidence." I said in between laughs.
I saw Lee grin as he pulls out his phone already recording. "It's been recording since the very first pretty pretty princess."
I grinned. "Send this to me later, preferably when you make your first pit stop."
He nodded as he brought his phone a little closer so it could record better. "Sapphire did you know that Wyatt wants you to be his "pretty pretty pretty princess." so much that all he ever talks about his making you into his pretty princess."
We both raised our brows to each other and continued to listen. "But, I'm already your pretty pretty pretty princess boo." We heard her say in a cherry drunk voice.
All of a sudden there was more rustling and in a more disappointing voice, she said. "That- that stupid- why do I have to be stuck with the cocky-"
Before she could even finish the sentence Wyatt cut her off. "Sorry, Landon, she is sort of drunk." and then ended the call.
"So I now don't just have my own brother to compete with I also have her best friend to compete with. And from the sounds of it, she's not too happy with me being as her mate. She is totally going to pick one of them over me!" I said a little too loudly and slammed the car roof a little too hard as it awoke Lee's dad from his slumber.
Lee put away his phone as he watched his dad fall back asleep. "This is why I want you to get on her good side while I'm gone I already asked James earlier to make sure you don't screw yourself over too much, just do what you can, and just so you know, you may be my best friend but if you do screw up to the point where you hurt her, I will step down from being the future beta and stop being your friend, Sapphire means more to me then you as my best friend, and as much as I would love to have both of you in my life, if something happens I'll always choose her because she is my sister, and I hope that if you have to choose between her and someone, like another girl or something else I hope that you choose her, because man, you have been in love with her for so many years and this right here is your chance to actually prove that you weren't lying about your feelings, so please do everything in your power so that she will choose you over whoever wants to take her away. Just don't hurt her in the end if you value our friendship and if you really love her." He sighed into his hands before looking back at me. "I really don't want to choose sides and I don't want to lose either of you so please make this work, and I will do everything I can while I'm there and here to help her to choose you, but I also don't want to be the reason why she chooses you. I want her to choose you because she wants you, so I'll help you a little bit but not too much."
I nodded my head as he squeezed my shoulder and got into the car. "I really have to go, don't forget Trinna, 7 in the morning, you have to hang with her so no ditching her unless she ditches you." I nodded again and waved as he started the car and drove off. This is going to be a long 2 weeks.
-The next morning, or a couple of hours later-
It's currently 1:30 and James texted me that they were on their way back to the packhouse and so I met them halfway. Only to be meeting up with Sapphire on Wyatts back, and James and Sapphire are wearing each other's clothes? "So which one of you three want to explain last night's call?"
They all looked at me as if I had three heads, I had expected James would at least remember since he has such a high tolerance, unlike Wyatt and Sapphire. I sighed and took out my phone and played the recording until the comment of Lee sending it to me because I really did not want to hear the next part again, and since they don't remember, I don't see why Saph has to hear it again. "Well pretty pretty princess? Since both of you weren't as drunk, I would like to know why I was called and then cursed at by Saph and why I was then ignored until I finally hung up."
Before any of them could answer I felt someone jump on my back as ginger curls cover my shoulders and arms snake around my neck. "So this is where you've been!"
She then got down and then lock her arms around mine "I've been looking for you for the past 30 minutes! Didn't Lee tell you to stay by my side until I tell you I don't need you anymore, so which one is it? Is it the ginger guy… your gay and you never told me! That's low… oooo I bet it's blondie here-" she looked at all of them one by one and then when her eyes reached Wyatt's they lit up.
She unclamped her arms and walked over to him giving him a once over. "Well, well, well, this day just keeps getting better, this morning I was greeted with a hella hot man and now I have met my mate." She smirked and before anyone could say anything she crashed her lips on his. Thank moon goddess, to be honest, she would have made my job of getting Saph to choose me a lot harder, and now that Wyatt has met his mate, I only have to worry about my brother.
I sighed as she let go of his shirt and took a step back smirking at him. "Everyone this is Trinna she is put under our care until the end of the school year, she is trusted to us by her father, the alpha of the neighboring pack who we are trying to make a treaty with, and Trinna like I told you when we met introduce yourself to others before you kiss them."
