She seems to think on the ideal as we both giggle a little at the thought of Seth being her knight in shining armour….
“I would take him over going back with Leo any day that’s for sure! Erin confirms, frying to force herself to find the humour in her current situation.
“Speaking of him… how are your arms?” 1 ponder, as she tucks a strand of damp hair back behind her ear before yanking up her
sweater sleeve.
“What’s those little white patches?” I question, seeing her covered in what looked like little waterproof white dots.
“Burn healing plasters or something they called them… Seth told me to put them on before I slept and that he would check them again later today! He is really nice and easy to talk to…” Erin speaks her mind on Seth as I almost swoon at the thought of the pair becoming a thing.
It would be my dream… for us both to live under the same roof with two decent males who treated us fair. We would have so much fun being here together!
“Kane said he wanted to see us at breakfast soon so we better go… he likes things going to his plan.” I chuckle, as Erin stands from her position on the bed and follows me to the door
I manage to make my way towards the kitchen which then leads me in the right direction towards the dining room male laughter echoing from the inside.

as we hearing
Erin slows a little, causing me to turn back to face her
–
concern covering my face.
“Sorry I’m just a little… nervous now!” Erin grows flustered, as I hush her and pull her to me in a brief hug.
“You’ve got this! They are nothing like Leo – trust me! We are in this together!” I offer my support in which she takes a slow deep breath before nodding in agreement.
With that, I take her hand in mine – leading her in to the dining room behind me – with a full breakfast buffet on full display.
All of them were here – Kane, Seth and Anthony, as they became quiet when seeing us both enter.
“Erin! Glad for you to join us for breakfast today!” Seth is the first to break the tension as we take our seats and I hand her a plate
next to me.
“Yes – please help yourself to anything!” Kane adds, gesturing to the packed table with his hand.
Erin’s eyes grow wide as she scans the length of the table and its contents – being the same way I had been at my first breakfast – unsure of where exactly to start!
“What are you both wanting to drink? The staff are off today because it’s Sunday, so I’ll get it from the kitchen!” Seth offers, standing with a half eaten bagel in hand.
“I–If the staff are off today… then who m made all of this?” I question, unsure of where all of this food had came from.
“Well obviously it was us!” Anthony chimes in, taking full credit for the three of them as my eyes widen.
They all did this?
“Wow!” I comment, as they nod – the evident pride clearly filling the three of them as they smirk at one another.

“So what will it be? Seth asks again, still standing as I think on it quickly.
“Oh! Um maybe an orange juice?” I ask, earning a nod of approval before he looks straight at Erin to answer next.
She seems to think, seeming hesitant at first as she eyes Anthony and Kane briefly before her gaze lands back on Seth.
“It sounds crazy… because it’s only breakfast… but is there anything lizzy? I’ve only had water and even at that, it was mostly warm and not even cold…” Erin sighs, seeming somewhat embarrassed by her explanation.
“Nah look – I’m eating breakfast with a full fat cola! You want the same?” Seth laughs, finding the humour in it and I’m glad that he does as it helps to remove any awkwardness that Erin had felt before
“Please!” She smiles up at him, as I enjoy watching their interactions together.
Seth exits the room, before we begin to pile up our plates as I decide to start with pancakes and Erin follows suit. We add strawberry’s, chocolate sauce and chocolate chips for toppings – as kane sniggers and shakes his head at my plate.
“Well since the both of you will be full of sugar today, what do you both plan on doing since us three will be busy for most of today?” Kane questions, before Seth reenters the room with our drinks.
“What d–do you suggest?” I question, making small talk, as I stuff a piece of pancake in to my mouth.
“We have a huge back yard with a pool… lots of stuff to do out there and it’s private… you could hang out there all day – it’s warm out.” Kane informs, as I look to Erin who nods her approval with the suggestion.
Perfect! I’m looking forward to spending the day with her… to bring us both back to reality a little bit. I think we both need it after the past week’s events… we will call it ‘free friends therapy‘.
