Easton tapped his foot against the rough ground of the school. The sun was annoyingly high and bright today and the alpha was sweating buckets in that casual yet tight t-shirt and jeans. Like Tib said he was there waiting for his mate at 11:45 sharp. He didn't want to wait anymore for his gorgeous half. So be it 12, he was already there.

He stood leaning onto his black Porsche dressed all properly. He planned a simple date with his mate today. They skipped a lot of steps in between which made the alpha chuckle in amusement.

They kissed right on their first meet.

Fought right after.

Kiss.

Fight.

Kiss plus something more.

Fight.

Fight.

Almost broke up.

Mated.

Almost died.

Had their first heat.

And now what? A date?

The order was messed up and full of fights but that definitely made their relationship spicy. Easton checked his wristwatch and the minute's and hour's hands were ready to tick 12.

He made up his mind that he will behave and take him on a pleasant car ride, unlike their previous ones. "Keep your calm, Aziel"

Yeah right like I was the one who screamed at Blake for his music taste on our "first" meeting.

"It was partly you though. You see I am you and you are me"

Stop with your pathetic and dramatic dialogues. Gross!

"Ugh!" It was fifteen twelve now, few students stepped out of the school building but neither Blake nor any of his class seemed to be there.

Easton waited for more than fifteen minutes before giving up and started walking to the entrance.

The people passing stared at the hunky man that was no less than a celebrity. He stepped nearing the corridor with his boots crunching the pebbles on the way.

He looks around to find the right way to Blake's class. Or maybe he was in the cafeteria. It's been four years since he graduated from high school so there wasn't much that has changed. Of course, he knew the way to the cafe but where was his mate's class.

"Blake?" He tried calling through their mind link but that bounced back. Maybe the alpha had blocked the mind links to concentrate on school.

"Umm... Excuse me?" the boys walking beside him startle and look upwards to the alpha.

"Y-yes, alpha?" the menacing aura surrounding the man was enough to tell the students in Wolf High that this man was an alpha. Upon that of course they knew who Easton Knight was.

"Do you know in which room does Blake K- I mean, Blake Jensen have a class in?" he enquires.

"No, alpha" the pairs of boys answer politely.

"No problem, thank you" he smiles back making the boys bow in respect. The smile came to them as a shock. The rumors were right.

Easton Knight was changing.

The older alpha strolls attracting glances with every step he takes. He peaks through the classes bending his head to find his mate. He tried finding his mate by his scent but there wasn't any near.

He takes a round of the first floor then takes the stairs towards the second floor. Exactly then the whiff of scent invades his nose. "Found you" he smiles to himself and walks following the essence.

He turns around the corner to find a group of students but no Blake. "Blake Jensen?" he asks the students as their voices die down when the alpha spoke.

"He just left for the cafeteria" one of the students replies and Easton recognizes him as a pack member.

"Thanks, Becky" he sprints towards the cafeteria on the third floor. He enters the room which was buzzing with people because it was now lunchtime.

The roar of students comes to a halt when a stranger enters. The sensitive nose of the werewolf itches with different smells hitting him but not the one he wants to. He looks around at the bunch of people but his mate was nowhere to be seen.

"Alpha Easton?" Zander calls the man when he spots him at this unusual place.

"Zander..." Easton relaxes a bit to see someone a bit more familiar. "Where is Blake?"

"Oh, he just went to the library to return some book" the beta informs. "Is everything alright?"

"Oh yes, all good. Don't worry" he pats Zander on the shoulder as he walks out of the cafeteria. "Are we playing hide and seek?" he chuckles to himself drawing few glances.

Maybe another rumor will raise about the ruthless alpha being nuts.

He walks towards the library feeling all nostalgic. The library was always his safe place. A place where no one would talk to you and even if they did you could just ignore them because why not!

He finds the library with the huge glass door. The librarian allows the alpha as soon as he recognizes him. "It's been a while, Easton" the old man greets.

"Indeed, Mr. Johnson. How are you doing?" The alpha greets back.

"All good. What brings you here?"

"My mate, Blake Jensen" the alpha replies proudly. He was the first time admitting to the outer world that Blake was his mate. Indeed there was the case with Emma but Blake was the one who disclosed the fact about them.

But this time Easton wanted to shout to the world about it.

"Oh, that boy" he chuckles. "He just came fumbling that he forgot to give back the book he borrowed and today was the last date" Johnson recalls. "He is still in there"

Easton nods gratefully and steps further in with the coffee beans scent oozing in his mind. He was near. He strolls from lane to lane and peaks through the empty area above the books but where was the naughty Jensen.

He takes a turn to enter another lane when a hand grabs him in the opposite direction. He gets slammed against a book rack resulting in few books touching the ground. "And I was thinking I am hallucinating on third stage" Blake groans.

Easton's eyes twinkle finally looking at his gorgeous yet stupid mate. He directly goes for those lips taking the younger alpha by surprise. Easton scoops Blake by his lean waist drawing him closer.

Blake gets on his toes to reach the alpha who was seeming a bit too tall because of the boots he was wearing. He wraps his arms around the older alpha and deepens the kiss.

Easton sucks on the tongue of the younger alpha making him moan into the kiss. The older alpha smirks and pulls back. "Shhh... Do not disturb" he whispers making the younger alpha burst out laughing.

"Silence!" the librarian warns to which Blake shuts up but cracks up as soon he looks at Easton but this time in a lower voice.

---------------------

"So you are here to pick me up?" Blake questions stuffing his face with a veggie roll.

"Hmmm" the older alpha replies playing with the hair strand of his mate.

"But my classes don't end until 2" Blake feeds the information.

"I realized that I have been scammed when I couldn't find you out at 12:15" the older sighs. Tib was good at revenge and the one he did today was just a puppet show compared to his Russian circus.

"Pfft-" Blake shakes his head as he feeds the older alpha the veggie roll. He didn't like them, Easton will eat them for him. "Sir Tib really likes you" the younger alpha wipes the sauce off Easton's lips and licks it unconsciously.

"Oh please," Easton doesn't even notice the act as it was too common for them.

Word to be noted: to be common for "them". But here they were sitting in between 100-200 students who were hoping to have a peaceful lunch.

"Are they like this at the packhouse too?" Zander whispers to Ezra who was ignoring the couple with all his might.

"This is nothing" Ezra replies.

Jaxon nudges Zander from the side not blinking an eye watching the alpha couple "Are they-"

"Yes. "Worse" to be particular" Zander passes the facts.

"Oh, Goddess" Jaxon mumbles eating his salad yet not blinking an eye. Zander shakes his head and continues to eat his lunch. The world is full of weirdos.

-----------------------

"I still have a class" Blake mentions as they stand in front of the classroom.

"I know" the older alpha replies.

"You should go. I will meet you at home"

"Nah, I will wait" Easton caresses his mate's pale cheek and runs a thumb over the high cheekbone.

"Hmm..." Blake closes his eyes, melting into the touch. The older alpha inches toward his mate as the younger parts his lips. Easton then bends his head to take the petals in between his teeth.

"As much as I want to stop this, I also want to die witnessing this " Ezra yells breaking the alpha couple from the trance. They look towards the voice and then the surrounding where a huge crowd of the audience was gathered.

"Holy shit-" Blake swears at the crowd. "Didn't know we had such a big amount of "public porn" lovers" he says earning few groans and then gasps. Easton stifles a laugh looking around at the weird expression on everyone's face.

The people who knew Blake Jensen also knew his sassy attitude and the new joiners will not take much time to know him.

"I will be waiting," Easton says, kissing the forehead of his mate. He walks through the dispersing crowd and then climbs down the stairs.

----------------------

Right after an hour, the car door opens as Blake slides in. "I am back!"

"I can see," Easton says and then scolds himself.

You got one work to do, Easton.

Aziel complained after making sure they had blocked Blake. Easton looks at Blake who had no worry on his face just a smile that stretched across his face. "Sorry" Easton says making the younger ones' brows furrow in confusion.

"Huh?"

"Ah- I just lashed out earlier. So..."

"You did?" Blake looks weirdly towards his other half. He shakes his head ignoring the sorry and continues to enjoy his good mood. "Where are we going?"

"On a date!" Easton replies cheerfully.

"Okay..." Blake gets impressed by the effort. "And where exactly is the "date"? "

"Anywhere you like" Easton replies. He had so many plans in his mind but he didn't know if Blake would like them. 'Cause the younger alpha was still a mystery that was unfolding little by little.

"Anywhere I like?" Blake questions back.

"Uh-huh"

"Hmm......." he gives it a good thought and then answers. "Then the supermarket?" Easton stops the car by hitting on the break and screech it to a halt. The younger alpha falls in the front and then hits the back. "What the hell-"

"SUPERMARKET?!?" the older alpha questions in all confusion. Who goes to the supermarket on a date? Like WHO?

"Yeah..."

"But, what will we do in the market?" Easton questions. "How is that a date?"

"Well, we can to the market and get all the groceries for our place and when we get back you can teach me cooking" he states simply.

Easton gets swept by the innocence of his mate yet again.

"That was we can spend the time we each other, will have good food to eat and I will learn something too" he finishes with a happy smile.

"What are you, Blake?" Easton questions astonished by his answer.

"Huh?"

"Nothing. So supermarket it is" Easton starts the car again.

-------------------

The pair reach the market and Blake jumps out in excitement. He rushes towards the entrance and collects one of the trolleys while Easton parks the car. He waits for the older alpha to come and enter the store together.

They have already decided in the car that they will be making Chicken Alfredo pasta with some bread and an apple pie. The couple collects the groceries one by one starting from chicken to fresh apples.

They roam hand in hand through the lanes looking at the most silliest things to their favorite chocolates. Their basket gets full with a whole lot of groceries which they did not even think of buying.

"Now I know why you like supermarkets. Look at all these useless things" Easton argues. He couldn't behave anymore. This was ridiculous.

"Useless?" Blake gasps. "These are very important things of everyday life. Thank you so much!"

"Like hell they are. Why did we get this cat bed? Hell we do not even have a cat, Blake"

"We might have one. You never know" Blake shrugs away the question.

"We are Canidae, Blake. What will a feline do at our place? Nonsense"

"You are nonsense. We can get a dog too"

"This bed is too small for a dog!"

"You don't know anything" Blake shakes his head while Easton looks at him in disbelief.

Both of them move towards the cash counter but Blake stops while looking in front of him. "Father? Father!" he calls upon spotting Christopher.

Easton shakes his head and releases his mate's hand. "Go see him" he says to which Blake walks towards the former alpha.

"Father?" Blake puts his hand on the alpha's shoulder startling him. He jerks away from the touch and then his eyes land on Blake. "It's me. Are you okay?" Blake closes in but all Christopher does is stare at the face.

He nods without opening his mouth. Blake finds it weird but lets it go thinking that the old man was having one of his mood swings. "I and Easton are here for some shopping for the dinner" the alpha informs his father.

Christopher looks at the back where Easton was standing with a trolley and a huge amount of stuff in it that was getting cashed one by one. The older alpha nods his head to which the former replies hesitantly.

"You can have dinner with us today. I know Easton wouldn't mind" Blake offers. The older alpha walks right then as Blake repeats his words.

"Of course! You can come over for dinner, Christopher" Easton smiles genuinely. This change of bond between Blake and Christopher was giving the older alpha some peace. This improvement was much needed for both of them.

Christopher stays silent and keeps looking between the alphas who were eagerly waiting for his response. He then nods his head in a "yes".

"Great! Let's go to the car" Blake walks ahead as Easton pushes the trolley with all the stuff outside towards their car.

Christopher walks at the back watching the back of the alphas.

"You will get them for me, won't you Samael?"

".....yes, father"
