05 - Chapter Five - Thanatos Alexander's Point Of View.

I tried to sit up in the bed and was pulled back down. I smiled softly.Forest was such a child.

"Don't leave, you sleep, Okay" Forest mumbled pushing me down ontothe mattress again and laying on top of me. Forest wasn't heavy so Ididn't bother moving him off me, I let him lay on top of me. I had justfallen asleep when Forest woke me up, he picked me right up off thebed and carried me down the stairs. He carried me into the kitchen andset me on a stool. He began grabbing things from all around thekitchen.

I watched every one of his movements, he was making so kind of batterfor something. He took a cooking spoon and poured it into the pan. Ihave never had these things at home, Quinn was the first one whocooked me a pancake but I was when Forest was still a baby.

He set the plate in front of me and took the fruit and laid it onto theplate. He took a fork and a knife and cut a piece of the pancake and ateit. He then cut another peace and set the fork against my lips. I openedmy mouth and took the pancake off the fork. it tasted amazing. He fedme almost all of the pancakes. I took the fork from him and cut the lastpancake into bite-sized pieces. I stabbed a couple with the fork andtried to feed them to him, he shook his head and said he wasn't hungrybut I could hear the rumbling of his belly.

"Please eat them for me mate,” I said with my best childlike voice. Hislips were around that fork and chewing the bite of pancakes in just afew moments. Some maple syrup ran down his chin, he went to wipe itoff and before he could I leaned in and licked the syrup trail. Foreststared into my eyes, it was like he was trying to see into my soul.

I was about to kiss him, we were only half a centimetre away fromkissing when Quinn took a photo of us. It scared the hell out of me andI tumbled off the chair onto the floor, Kane and Quinn began to laughat the top of their lungs. I tried to piece what had happened in my headfrom the floor.

Forest pulled me up from the floor and began to look over me to see ifI was okay. No matter how many times I told him I was perfectly fine hestill wanted to look for himself. He pulled me everywhere with him allday long. He introduced me to the betas son, who would be his beta.The Betas’ son Matthew didn't really like me. I could read it through theemotions he was sending my way.

I asked Forest if I could end the tour he was giving me and go take ashower. I spent an hour in the shower every day over the last fifteenyears. it helped me relax and get on with the fact that not everyone wasgoing to be pleased with me. I walked to Forest's room and strippednaked in the bathroom. I pulled the braid out of my long silver hair. Myhair was extremely long and it reached my hips but I kept it braidedand pinned down so that it wasn't in the way. I took the bottle ofshampoo and rubbed it, threw my hair, I rinsed and did the same withthe conditioner. After I washed my body I got out of the shower. I stoodand looked at myself in the mirror, I didn't hate what I saw, but I alsoreally didn't love it. I was just okay with it all, I guess.

I pulled a towel around my waist and one around my hair because itwas long and collected water like a sponge.

Forest was sitting on his bed, my clothing sitting beside him. Hehanded me my clothing and I walked into the washroom again andpulled my clothing on.

I opened the door and asked if he had a blow-dryer. He said no, it wasfine that he didn't have a blow-dryer. I was just going to rebraid itanyways. I pulled the towel off my head and heard Forest gasp.Running my fingers through my hair I tried to untangle it the best Icould without my brush. Surprisingly I got it pretty untangled.

"Your hair is really long, I never noticed." He said smiling.

"Yes it is indeed quite long, I've been growing it for quite some time. I'llprobably cut it off at some point.”

After I braided my hair we went downstairs and watched a whole bunchof movies for the rest of the day. I really liked just us cuddling andbeing able to relax and watch movies together. It wasn't long into thelast movie that we both started to yawn. We didn't even get to finishthe rest of the movie because we both fell asleep on the couchsnuggled up against each other.

My dreams were filled with Forest and my bond that was growing withhim. It was such an odd sensation to see what I was seeing. My dreamsheld a man that was smart and handsome and so much older then hewas now. He looked great, he looked like a perfect alpha, one that wasall mine. When dream Forest kissed me I knew exactly what that felt likeand I enjoyed it. It was a wonderous thing to see him all grown up, evenif it was a dream. It gave me hope for the future. I wanted to rememberthis when I woke up. I hoped I would remember this when I woke up.
