Chapter 42 - 42: Ice Swim

Kelsey

After figuring out how to make a portal with the device Skye gave me I landed in the pack house living room, startling Drake who was sitting watching T.V..

"Back from spy work I see." He teased. I rolled my eyes playfully as I sat next to him on the couch.

"Today felt like it wouldn't end. Damn Phillip wasn't actually dead, turns out, and he could shift to different looking humans as well so uh... he's my actual father which disgusts me to no end. Then I guess Dylan's dad snuck in to see or beat up or kill Dylan, but Skye stopped him and shot him in the dick then threw him in jail and shot him in the ankle." I told him, after the shot in the dick part he slowly crossed his legs and had a look of slight fear in his expression.

"Sounds like a very eventful day." He replied, covering his crotch with his hands. I laughed and shook my head. "What?" He asked, pretending he wasn't doing anything.

I raised a brow at him and answered, "You, tryna protect yourself as if I'M gonna shoot you in the dick."

My mate snorted and responded, "Pf. No, just sounds very painful is all." I laughed some more then stood up and headed to his room to change and go to sleep, Drake following after turning the T.V. off. We crawled into bed and snuggled up to each other, saying goodnight.

I woke up in the morning and started getting ready for some more stupid school, always so boring and pointless. I know the material better than the teachers half the time, no point in going to learn if there's nothing TO learn. Nevertheless I finished getting ready and Drake, Kat, Jason and I hopped into my awesome ass car and drove to school. I parked and we, obviously, all got out and headed inside. Kat and Jason peaced out and went elsewhere in the school, so Drake and I headed up to our lockers.

On the way there a popular but not guy stopped us and asked, "Hey sorry to bother you Kelsey, but I was wondering if that was your sister here the other day?"

I squinted suspiciously at him and questioned, "Why do you want to know?"

He gave an awkward smile, seeming embarrassed and answered, "Just cause she looked sort of like you but also completely different and... I don't know... She caught my attention is all."

"Well. Hate to break it to you but first; she'd probably literally rip your face off for even thinking that and second; she's taken by a guy who loves her more than fricken breathing so I suggest you move on." I partially retorted out of protectiveness for my sister and her mate. He looked offended but I shrugged and pushed past him, leaving him to glare after me. "Pf. Kinda wish she was here to witness that just so he'd shit himself." I snorted causing Drake to laugh and agree. We reached our lockers and realized how pointless it was because we hardly ever use them. Regardless of that though I started organizing the few things I had in mine. The first bell then rang so we headed to English with Mr. H. I tortured him a bit as usual but not enough to get sent to the principal. The rest of the day was pretty boring, nothing else happened and we finally got to go home.

"I want to swim in my pool since it's not really winter season anymore." I said to my friends as we all walked to my car.

"You realize it's not that long after Christmas so it's still going to be fairly cold, right?" Kat responded.

"Pff naahh, besides it's heated and you two haven't even been in my pool yet, how sad." I realized and stated. They both jokingly rolled their eyes. The four of us got in my car and drove all the way back to the pack house, I waited in my car while the three of them ran inside to get their stuff even though they didn't really want to. I fiddled around with the device Skye gave me, trying to figure out what everything on it does. In my peripheral vision I saw the front door of the pack house open so I put the device away in my backpack. I looked up to see the future Beta walking towards my car. I got out since he was clearly coming to talk to me.

"Hey Kelsey."

"Hey."

"I came to ask you about your sister."

I rolled my eyes as I heaved a huge sigh and groaned, "Not you too. My god she's fucking taken move the fuck on before you end up murdered. Jesus."

He looked completely, utterly lost and responded, "Uh... I know she is, and since you've clearly forgotten; I'm into guys. I was wondering how she's doing, with that whole incident that happened with her mate." Hm. Didn't know you cared bout that kind of shit, but okay then. Though maybe I'm just suspicious of everyone now...

"She's doing fine. They're both still alive so they're good." I answered a little vaguely, after getting this job I've already realized how much you can't entirely trust people.

He nodded and said, "That's good to hear. What are you up to just sitting in your car?"

"Waiting for Drake, Kat and Jason to come back from grabbing some stuff then heading over to my house." I answered, wondering why the heck he cares about all this stuff since he hardly ever talks to me and he like... specifically came out here to do so.

He just nodded and asked, "Is your brother visiting again?"

I furrowed my brows and replied, "Uh.. no. Why do you want to know?"

"Just curious, you missed out on a lot of time together so I just figured you guys would spend a lot of time together now," he answered smoothly then stated, "well I should get back to work, was just curious as to why you were sitting out here in your car."

"Okay, now you know." I joked trying to make myself feel less uncomfortable. He chuckled and headed back inside just as Drake, Jason and Kat came back out. That was odd... Anyway we hopped back in my car and instead of driving and killing the environment some more, I decided to use the device and made a portal. It thankfully worked and I drove through it, even more thankfully we didn't end up inside my house and ended up in my driveway.

"Since when did you have one of those things?" Jason questioned, sounding baffled.

I smirked and answered, "Well. Since you asked. I got recruited to be a spy and every spy gets one of these things at some point to get around and do missions easier and get calls or video chat things from my boss. It's really cool." Kat and Jason looked extremely surprised and at a loss for words. I chuckled, stated, "anyways come on guys," and I got out of my car, locking it once the other three were out as well. I lead the way inside and to my room even though they all know where it is. Kat and I went and changed in my bathroom while the guys just changed in my room. Once we were done we came out of the bathroom, duh.

Drake and Jason were ready to go so I shouted excitedly, "Who's ready to SWIM!" My three friends cheered along with me, causing us all to laugh as we made our way outside.

"No pretending to die on me this time Kelsey. Even if we all freeze to death." Drake slightly growled sternly but also joked a little.

I gave a cheeky innocent smile and replied, "No promises. Especially since now I can be invisible. Bwahaha." He glared at me for a few seconds before snorting and chuckling at my behavior. I gave my mate a hug, I sadly regretted it very very soon after though. For Drake picked me up and threw me into the water that at first was absolutely fucking freezing. I got used to it fairly quickly at least, but that wasn't nice of him to do at all, and it was still cold since I hadn't gotten around to turning the heating thing on higher. Once I got the water out of my eyes I glared at him and the other two laughing.

"Is it nice in there?" Jason teased.

I rolled my eyes and replied, "Yeah, come in."

"Nah, I just ate not too long ago and I should wait an hour before swimming." He said, obviously lying. I then caused a big wave that splashed all three of them, causing them to yell, or in Kat's case scream, at me about it being ice water.

"Well now you know how it feels, bitches." I laughed. They all glared at me as I got out of my pool, I took one look at them then ran over to the water fall. They chased after me and we all jumped off together. We jumped and swam for a few hours till it got dark and felt chilly out here being soaked. So we got out, dried off for the most part and headed inside. We all showered—obviously different bathrooms—then changed into pj's and gathered on my circle bed, exhausted from playing in the pool so long. Otherwise we would probably go to my hangout room and play video games or something. I sighed, causing a chain-reaction of sighs.

"Goodnight guys." I said to my friends.

"Goodnight." They all replied. I cuddled into Drake for warmth and quickly fell into sleeps dark, relaxing grasp.
