Chapter 238
Vincent's POV
This was the distraction I needed.
I look down at my plate and finish up my French fries I ordered. I look to my left at Caleb's plate and see he still has some fries left on his plate. I wonder? I slowly bring my hand up on the table while Caleb and Marcella are talking and l go to swipe a one but Caleb catches my wrist.
He turns and looks at me as I try to stifle a laugh. He then picks up a both this was the distraction I needed. I look down at my plate and finish up my french fries my left at Caleb's plate and see he still has some fries left on his plate. I wonder? I slowly bring my hand up on the table while Caleb and Marcella are talking and I go to swipe a one but Caleb catches my wrist.
He turns and looks at me as I try to stifle a laugh. He then picks up another fry from his plate and holds it in front of my mouth, not breaking eye contact.
"Do you really have to feed me? l already ate the first one." I ask and then take the fry into my mouth. He laughs,
"No l don't have to feed you, but I want to. It's just natural response towards you. Wolf thing"
"C'mon D, I would let a guy like Caleb feed me any day." Sage says and winks at me. I roll my eyes and she laughs, and I can't help but laugh with her. Another few moments pass, and we decide to head out to actually go shopping, now that my stomach is pleasantly full. I step out of the restaurant and take in a deep breath, and feeling the sunlight warm my skin slightty.
"I need to get outside more." I say to myself.
"Vincent and I have a store we want to go to, where should we meet you guys?" Caleb says, interrupting my blissful moment in the sun. Sage and Marcella walk over to me, and Marcella turns back to face the guys.
"I think Sage wanted to go get a piercing, so meet us over at the tattoo shop the next street over." I look at Sage.
"You want to get a piercing? You hate needles!" She shrugs at me.
"I leave in a couple days, I want something to remember the trip! Something that isn't typical of me."
"Too many clothes back at home?" l joke and she scoffs and slaps my
shoulder.
"Shut up!" I laugh.
"Alright, maybe I'l get something too." I turn to Caleb and Vincent.
"Don't be gone too long okay?" They smile at me and nod before turning and heading off in the opposite direction. The girls and I walk to the next street over and walk into the tattoo parlor. Marcella and Sage walk up to the counter and start talking to the
receptionist. I'm looking around, not really pay
ing attention when I hear my name
"Davyna! Are you getting something?" Sage asks. I think quickly and
decide, smiling internally at my decision. "Uh yeah, Can I get my second and third holes in my ears?" The receptionist nods and pulls out paperwork. I join Sage at the counter and fill out the form and sign my consent. We're told to wait and about 15 minutes later we're called into the back. I had decided to go first while we were waiting, since Sage said she was nervous. I knew she was going to clam up I climb into the chair and after marking my ears and going over safety and aftercare, it's finally time. Four little pinches and l'm done. I go over to the mirror and look at my new jewelry. A new set of topaz and sapphire small studs, representing the two men in my life now.
"They look good, I'm sure the boys will love them." Marcella says as she stands beside me. I turn and look at her, not at all surprised that she caught on.
"l hope so. It was kind of a last minute thing I decided i wanted." She smiles at me and then we head back to the chair, now laid down into a table and Sage is laying down on it She decided to get her bellybutton done, so I walk over to her and take her hand.
"It won't hurt to bad. You've got this." I reassure her and a few minutes later, we're a finished and paying back at the front when the boys walk in.
"How'd it go?" Vincent asks as we walk out. I smile and pull him and and Caleb aside, as Sage and Marcella go to sit down at a table near the tattoo shop.
"Okay so I don't care if this is extremely cheesy or stupid,
but..." I trail off and pull my hair back and show them my ears
"They look lovely." Vincent says
"They're pretty" Caleb says at the same time. I laugh.
"Do you know why I chose those colours?" I say, trying to hint
and get them to think a little. They both shake their heads and I get a bit closer and stand in front of Vincent first. "Topaz for you." I give him a quick
"They remind me of my favourite part of both of you. Your eyes." I feel myself blushing. Who knew I'd be doing this right at this moment. I thought I was going to be sad and alone forever, but it's different now.
Both of them have made me feel more content then I have in years. It's still so weird for me to even admit. They broke my walls down, and honestly I'm coming to appreciate it more and more.
"Now I can have something that reminds me of you both wherever I go." Both of them smile softly at me. "We got you something too."| look at them puzzled.
"You did?" I question as they start to walk over to a bench
near Sage and Marcella. We all sit down, Vincent on my left and Caleb on my right. Caleb then places a bag in my lap.
"Open it." He says and I open the bag and take out the tissue paper and gasp. I reach in and pull out the wolf figurine that he had given to me before, but I never took with me with all the confusion that day. It's different though. It's been sealed and I see a red gem in the center of the wolf's chest. His heart.
"I went and got the gem added. Do you like it?" Caleb asks.
"I love it. Thank you." Vincent then places his gift bag on my lap and smiles.
"My turn."
"You both didn't have to get me something." I start and Caleb interrupts me.
"We wanted to. This is kinda the first chance we've gotten to give
you a proper gift, so just go with it okay?" I chuckle and nod. He's not wrong. I then start to open Vincent's gift. My heart flutters as I pull it out.
It's a set of wooden bookmarks - one black and one red, that's carved etched and burned with some elegant designs of birds and flowers. The cords are black with a bead at the end.
"These are beautiful, Vincent. Thank you" I place both gifts back in the bag and hold onto it tightly, super appreciative that they both took the time to think of such thoughtful gifts for me.
"It's a nice sight to see the three of you together" Marcella says as we get up and approach her and Sage.
"You make my brothers happy, Davyna. It's nice to see this different side of them."
I smile as I go to stand, but then I'm struck with a sudden pain in my, and I bring my breathe through it but it just gets worse.
"Davyna?" Marcella says and I stutter out,
"I need to sit down." I feel Caleb pick me up from behind and he
sits down and places me in his lap, taking the bags with my gifts from?me.
"What's hurting? Your head?" He asks and I nod as I snuggle into his chest to try and get some comfort. I close my eyes to try and help stop the pain.
"This has happened before." Sage says. I hear Vincent's muted voice
through the almost rhythmic throbbing pain in my head.
"Did it happen just like this?"
"Yes, she said it was just a headache, but this time it seems worse. Last time she could talk through it. She took some pain medication and was fine after it kicked in.!"
"We need to get her home. She's getting warm." Caleb says and I feel the coldness of Vincent's hand on my forehead. It helps with the but not enough.
"Yeah she seems to be developing a fever. Let's get back." I feel myself being carried, and put into the car moments later. "Too...warm. Vincent." l can hardly get words out, but they understand me as Caleb places me beside Vincent and I feel him pull me onto his lap. His coolness feels wonderful and I feel the pain start to subside.
Then everything goes black, then stand in front of Caleb,
"and Sapphire for you." I kisser fry from his plate and holds it in front of my mouth, noted curtains,which are grey and a maroon colour, respectively.
