Scott jogged up the front steps of the Geyer-Dunbar household and knocked on the door. He had planned on taking Liam and Theo out to the preserve tonight with the rest of the Pack since it was going to be the first full moon that they would all be together since the older members of the Pack left for collage. Scott was looking forward to spending some time with his Pack, and re-establishing their bonds. He missed being able to run with his Pack so freely.
Not even a second later, the door swung open to reveal a blurry-eyed Liam, reeking of sex and sleep. Liam reached up to rub his eyes with his closed fists as he looked up at Scott in shock. A smile broke out onto his face as he lunged forward, wrapping his arms around his Alpha in a tight hug, “Scott, you’re here!”
Scott laughed, and quickly hugged Liam back, trying not to breath in his scent too much. The sex part of his scent was stale and faded, but the scent still clung to his skin, meaning it probably happened this morning, hence the smell of sleep. Scott tried not to think about it too much, he didn’t want to be thinking about his Beta having sex with someone who used to be their enemy, “good to see you too Liam, I’ve missed you guys.”
“We missed you too.” Liam pulled away, still beaming, and it was in that moment that Scott finally noticed what his Beta was wearing.
“Isn’t that Theo’s sweater?”
Sure enough, the dark blue knitted sweater that hung awkwardly off one of Liam’s shoulders, and the long sleeves bushed against Liam’s fingertips.
Liam cheeks flushed dark red as he shuffled in his spot, tugging against the dark blue knitted sweater that hung awkwardly off one of his shoulders “maybe” Liam mumbled slowly. Scott couldn’t help but chuckle at his Beta’s obvious embarrassment. “It was the first thing that I grabbed, okay!” Liam defended himself, his blush deepening.
“Baby, who’s are the door?”
Both Liam and Scott turned to see Theo walking down the stairs, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes while he tried to smooth down his hair. He paused at the bottom of the steps when he noticed that Scott was standing in the doorway, his eyes widening in surprise, “hey Scott, Liam didn’t tell me you were coming for a visit.”
“I decided to surprise everyone” Scott said with an easy smile.
Theo didn’t look anything like the heartless villain that he once knew, not like this. He was wearing a pair of black pyjama pants with little jack-o-lanterns printed on them, and one of Liam’s larger Lacrosse hoddies. His eyes were still lidded with sleep, making him look almost vulnerable and childlike. It was hard to believe that the man standing in front of him was the same one that tried to kill him and his Pack little over a year ago.
“Are we going running tonight” Liam asked; practically bouncing with excitement.
Scott chuckled and scuffed Liam’s hair, “absolutely! I thought you guys would want to hang out a little before that, though.”
“Sure!” Liam chirped, grinning widely, “we have to get ready first thought, do you mind waiting?”
“Of course not” Scott said, and Liam let him into the house.
“Okay, we’ll be back in a second.” Liam grabbed Theo’s hand and dragged the Chimera back up to their bedroom, with Scott laughing in amusement after them.
He may not trust Theo with their lives, but he did trust him with Liam’s heart. And for now, that was enough.
