I manage to get out.
“Ever” Trick says seriously and I cringe. “Look at us?”
I’m not even sure when I dropped my gaze back down but I take a deep breath and look up at them all, preparing myself for the worst.
However that’s not what I get. All of them are beaming at me, massive smiles on their face’s looking at me like I just hung the fucking moon. I frown, slightly confused but I’m turned towards Cash who is smiling so wide that even his dimples have come out to play.
“You had us worried for a second there. Il mio Cuore” he chuckles before kissing me thoroughly.
“Wha-huh-erm?” I say eloquently when he pulls back.
“Sweetheart” Trick says, gaining my attention again and my eyes dart across to where he’s sat opposite me. “We all feel the same and I, we don’t mind sharing.” When I just stare at him in disbelief, he continues as he smiles, “you remember when I bought the conversation up after Winter Formal?”
I nod, unable to believe this is actually happening right now as my heart pounds in my chest.
“We were going to bring it up then. Bad timing on our part admittedly” Luc chuckles answering for Trick.
“We didn’t bring it up again because of what happened with that stalker fuck and we didn’t want you to freak out again” Trick adds.
“You’re really ok with sharing me? Because I’m warning you now, I absolutely could not share you with another woman. With each other,” I look at Riot and Rafe who grin at me, “sure but not anyone else. I know that’s incredibly unfair and selfish of me but apparently that’s who I am now” I start to ramble and force myself to snap my mouth shut.
“Baby, we don’t want anyone else” he pauses and then smirks, “well I want Riot too but no one else” he grins and I let out a slightly strangled laugh.
“We really do want this Angel, and it’s not like it’s a new concept to us. We wanted to bring it up to you, remember? We’ve probably had longer to get used to the idea than you have” Jensen adds, soothing some of my jagged edges.
“Really?”
“Fuck yes, Firecracker” Luc exclaims and kisses me when I turn to look at him.
When I turn to look at the others they’re all nodding and smiling. I feel a giant smile take over my features and my heart soars as the giant weight I’ve been carrying pretty much since that first week with them. Which seems like such a long time ago but in reality really isn’t.
My smile drops when my gaze lands on Atlas. He immediately gets up and comes around the table as Cash moves out of the way as Atlas reaches me, he pulls me into his arms and squeezes me tightly before he moves back so I can see his face.
“Princess, you have no idea how much I want to say I’m all in. I have never felt about anyone how I felt about you but I can’t come back with you guys and I don’t know when I will be able to see and speak to you again” he says, and my heart drops as several of the guys start to protest. “I’m trying ok. I’m hoping it won’t be long at all until I can safely bring you in but I don’t know for certain. Something could go wrong.”
My eyes start to fill against my permission as my heart breaks. He places his hands on my cheeks his own eyes shrouded in sadness.
“I am all yours, Princess” he vows. “I hope like hell I can bring you in, in a matter of weeks but you need to be prepared for it to be longer.”
I nod reluctantly, knowing that there’s nothing that either of us can do to change the situation and sending up a prayer to anyone that is willing to listen that everything goes according to plan and he can at least fill us in on what’s going on in a couple of weeks. For his sake and ours. None of us like knowing that he’s in a dangerous situation.
Atlas smiles sadly and kisses me sweetly pouring all of the emotion he normally hides into it and making me tear up even more. When he pulls back he leans his forehead on mine as his tattooed hands clench against me, struggling just as much as I am with this shitty situation.
“I have one question and then we’ll do this
