Little Red Riding Hood (1X1)

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




Arm stretched out, ready to turn the door knob. Marina hesitated for a brief moment at the question. The whole finding a mate ritual had never happened and she was just going off of what other’s had said. The two would be drawn to each other, so her wanting her brother to stay away might be difficult. The news she was still unsure she wanted to pass on, so she left without agreeing to it.


Two days it took her to find Sawyer and she really didn’t. It took him two days to come home after the incident and he remained distant and to himself, mulling over his thoughts on what was the best action to take. His sister was being avoided at all cost on purpose to avoid the millions of questions she had thought up in the last forty-eight hours. The door swung open to reveal a very angry Marina. That was enough to say that she knew more than he wanted. The two squabbled quite loudly over his disappearance and how he couldn’t just do that. It grew really serious when she lowered her voice just for the two of them to hear and inquired about the bite. Not in the mood to talk, he stared up at his ceiling, wishing for this to end.


“She wants to talk to you. You shouldn’t, should just stay the hell away.” Marina spat, trying anything to get her brother to engage with her about any of it. A part of her was upset that all of this was going on and straining her new friendship, along with her brother’s and hers relationship.  An angry Sawyer turned to her, this time she crossed the line.


“Get out!” he said, chucking the nearest hard object in her direction.  The blonde took cover behind the door, crouching down in the hallway. Space, the two needed it before it got any more heated. Sawyer listened to his sister sighing and her soft footsteps leaving. Moments later, when he knew the coast was clear he left the house, regretting coming back in the first place. At first his feet guided him and he was wrapped up in his thoughts to know where they were carrying him, until halfway when he noticed he was going toward her house. He knew he had to do it, so he kept trucking away until he got to Evangeline’s home and then he knocked on the door twice.

Evangeline was hurting more than she realised, and she spent most of the next two days in her bedroom, just ignoring the outside world as she went through everything that happened during that picnic, her mind unable to focus on anything that wasn't related to Sawyer, much to her annoyance and frustration but she seemed to be completely infatuated, at least it felt like she was.


She was curled up in her bed when she heard a knock on the door, and she groaned, rolling out of bed, a blanket wrapped around her body, on top of her pjs as she stumbled downstairs, running a hand through her hair as she made her way to the door.


The only reason she was even bothering to get up was because her family was out, and she was home alone if they had been here, she doubted she would even have blinked.


Evie opened the door, and it took her a minute to process who was standing in front of her and she stared up at him with wide eyes, hesitating before flinging herself into his arms and hugging him tightly, not realising how worried she had been about him and his sister after not hearing from either of them for a few days.

Sawyer




The door took a while to open and Sawyer waited patiently with his hands in his pockets. Over the last few days the redhead had been what was on his mind the whole time. Thinking he wished things weren’t so complicated. What this would entail now that he had bitten her, but he had just really wanted to see her again. When it was Evangeline standing in the entryway he felt relieved. A small smile for the first time in a few days grew as she wrapped her arms around him.


“Hi” he whispered in her ear, wrapping his own arms around waist to pull her into a hug, before he slowly pulled away not wanting to overstep any boundaries since they hadn’t left off on the greatest of terms. A meek smile was on his face as he studied the redhead, not sure what to say next.  

 

[FatedAttraction]

Evangeline let out a small sigh of relief as she felt his strong arms wrapping around her, and holding her to him in a hug and she managed a small smile as they pulled away from each other and she looked up at him, relieved that he was smiling and now scowling and sulking like he had been the last time she had seen him.


"I was worried...I asked Marina to tell you to come over but I didn't hear from either of you..." She said nervously and shyly, as she stood in the doorway looking up at him before looking down "I guess I'm just really confused about where we stand and what this means...Marina seemed really upset and angry at us when she was last here" Evangeline said nervously, rambling a bit onwards due to her nerves as she looked up at her werewolf mate

Sawyer




Guilt swam over him as it had been his fault for worrying Evangeline. His hands sunk into his pockets at the mention of his sister. The fact was she was pretty pissed about the whole situation and apparently didn’t even hide that from the redhead. There was hesitation before he spoke, remembering the red head wasn’t quite ready for an explanation the last time they spoke and just wanted to go home.


“Well I didn’t go home for two days.” he admitted, not hearing the Evangeline wanted to see him until this fight their morning. Wasn’t an excuse not to come see her, but he need time to sort his thoughts out. “Yeah, Marina is pretty upset over it.” he agreed, not going into details about the fight or what she had said. Sawyer bit his lower lip anxiously as he wasn’t surprised by his sister’s reaction and new more would be like that. “As for where we stand, that is difficult to say. Selecting a mate is a pretty important milestone and I’ve never heard of it happening between a werewolf and a human Werewolves, my pack in particular, don’t mingle well with humans. . .” he trailed off, hoping that would sort of explain a bit more of why he was acting the way he did.   

 

[FatedAttraction]

Evie pulled the blanket tighter around her body, pulling the fluffy and warm material as close as she could as she stand there awkwardly, looking up at the blond male in front of her as he fidgeted nervously and uncomfortably, before listening to him as he started to talk, and she listened eagerly to his deep, almost gravely and sexy voice.


"I don't know why she is so upset..." Evie protested, slightly irked by the fact Marina was being so unsupportive about everything between the both of them, and she glanced up as he mentioned that word again, the word 'mate' and she listened to everything he had to say about it all "But why...maybe they would like me, and shouldn't it just be about the fact we are mates..." 

 

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




The pair of siblings had given off the wrong vibe for sure. Sawyer more so like to just go with the flow and not cause trouble, his sister was the odd ball in the pack, doing things her own way. This was something that was clear the redhead didn’t understand as she protested that maybe they would like her if given the chance. His head shook lightly at her briefly.


“You’ve been attacked twice now and you think maybe they’ll like you? Really want to take that chance?” he asked, shaking his head again at the idea. “Not many humans take the supernatural new very well either and many go out of their way to kill us.” he stated, trying to get her to understand that this wasn’t just simply wasn’t one sided either, but a feud between two races.  

 

[FatedAttraction]

"Well...that could have been anybody..." She muttered, how was she supposed to know it was his pack that had been attacking her and she sighed frustratedly as she watched him rejecting all the ideas of there being any peace or positive feelings being directed towards her from his pack and she murmured "So what happens now...what's going to happen with us and your pack?" 


Evie glanced into the house, before finally inviting him inside so they could talk more, without standing outside in the cold breeze and she shut the door quietly behind him, still waiting nervously for a reply from Sawyer

 

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




“Could have, but we’re the only ones in these parts. The hunter that just recently killed our Alpha scared everyone else off and now packs don’t even pass through these parts anymore.” he told her softly, knowing that didn’t help their case out any. Especially since pack is out for blood ever since then and looking for the ones family. Everyone was clambering to replace the last one, but when one of the members of the pack died it was like losing a limb. It was just hard to move on and twice as hard when it was an alpha. It threw everything into chaos without a leader.


An exasperated sigh escaped as he didn’t know how to answer that question. The inside of the house was eyed as she invited him. There was a bit of hesitation, but it was better than discussing all of this in the open. Sawyer dug his hands deeper and shoulders tensed up as he went no further in than the entryway.


“Not tell them?” he said, not knowing any other options. “Marina didn’t even take it well, not really willing to chance how they’d take it.” he said flatly, looking around the room until his eyes landed on her again. Truth was he didn’t know what to do, if he should stay away or what. It was hard to stay away though, the last two days she had been on his mind the whole time.   

 

[FatedAttraction]

Evangeline noticed the hesitation Sawyer had about being even such a tiny distance into her home and she sighed softly "No one else is here...come on into the kitchen, you know I'm no harm to you" She said softly as she limped into the kitchen, kinda finding this a bit stupid considering Sawyer was obviously the much more powerful being out of the two of them, especially when she was injured and still very confused about the situation, especially on where it left the two of them.


"So are you saying we sneak around behind their backs...? Like a secret relationship or something?" She asked confused because she was fairly sure, only a few days ago he was regretting kissing her, and marking her...so what had made him change his mind so quickly??

 

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




In general he didn’t think she would hurt him or stand a chance if she chose to. It was just odd being in this situation, but knowing they were alone meant that they at least there weren’t prying ears listening in on the conversation. Sawyer did as she ordered and followed her in to the kitchen to continue the conversation. A brow raised in thought about her question. The bite in general was what he was referring to and them continuing to see one another hadn’t been on the brain, just her safety.


“Continue seeing each other?” he asked a bit stunned that was an option she wanted. “I was referring to the bite. Didn’t really think you’d want to continue after that. That is one of the reasons I was freaking out.” he told her honestly, scratching behind his head nervously.  It would be hard if she chose that she did want nothing to do with him. There would always be a constant nagging to go and find her that he’d have to fight for the rest of his life.

 

[FatedAttraction]

Evangeline leant against the wooden kitchen counter as she watched Sawyer walking into the after her and she looked up at him nervously, the tiny smile that had been on her lips immediately falling as he seemed to reject the idea of seeing each other again and she murmured awkwardly and embarrassed "Right...of course, that's what you meant, duh..." with a small sigh as she avoided looking at him.


She couldn't deny the attraction between them, and she guessed that was down to them being mates apparently, but there was nothing either of them could do to stop the attraction, especially after the kissing and the making out they had enjoyed together and then when he marked her...none of that could be reversed so how was she supposed to just pretend like nothing had ever happened between them.

 

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




Her gaze went elsewhere and so did his. This was just complicated, but he knew one thing out of it all. Evangeline was someone he wanted to continue seeing. Slowly he shuffled besides her and leaned against the counter next to her, pondering what to say next.


“Is all of this too much for you or do you want to continue seeing one another?” he asked, now that important things were out of the way and she had a bit more of an idea what he had gotten her into. “I m-mean it probably won’t be the easiest with all of that in our way.” Apart of him grimaced as he had to just add that in there. Not really pointing things in his favor, but at the same time he didn’t want her to get the wrong impression it be easy.

 

[FatedAttraction]

Evangeline glanced up as he approached her and she shuffled slightly awkwardly as she waited for him to start talking and she bit her lip as she listened to him, and tried her best  to be positive about everything and eventually she nodded her head "I want to continue seeing each toher...you forced me to open up my eyes to a whole new species, so I might as well keep dealing with this like it's an adventure" She said quietly, with her best attempt at a smile as she looked up at him.


With a small amount of hesitation, she moved closer and leant up, pressing her lips to his gently and tenderly, her lips barely touching hers before she stepped back shyly

 

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




A small smile formed on his lips when he heard the answer. The peck on the lips was a surprise, but his face quickly turned into a warm smile. An arm wrapped around her and he pulled her into a hug slightly. Things just felt right now that issue had been sorted. The other ones were just going to have to wait for a while as he hadn’t a clue on how to solve them.


“Any more questions?” he asked, glancing around the house and then noticing Evangeline was in her sleep wear still. The warm blanket had covered that up earlier and he hadn’t noticed. His gaze went to meet hers as he waited for her to answer.  

 

[FatedAttraction]

Evangeline smiled more as she saw the smile forming on his lips, and she let herself be pulled into his arms and she allowed herself to relax against his warm chest and she bit her lip as he asked if she had any questions and she hesitated before shaking her head.


Of course, she had questions, she had no idea about any of this werewolf stuff, especially about the mate situation but she just stayed quiet, and she rested her head against his chest with a small sigh

 

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




Not having any questions wasn’t really bought, but he took the brief moment of relaxing instead of going into in depth conversation, one that would most likely lead to more questions. His thumb massaged her shoulder in a circular motion as he just enjoyed being with her for a moment.


“Is this a new look you’re into?” he asked, teasing that she was still in her pajamas. Didn’t seem like her not to be up and ready for the day.

 

[FatedAttraction]

Evangeline smiled softly as she felt his thumb moving on her shoulder gently, and she relaxed slightly as she looked up at him with a small smile, before laughing and shaking her head "I've been having pyjamas for the last few days" She giggled with a small smile as she looked up at him.


Eventually, she mustered up the courage to lean up again, her face pretty close to his, hovering for a bit before finally kissing him gently and tenderly.

 

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




Sawyer nodded softly as she explained her wardrobe choice. More of a story probably there, but that was lost in thought as she looked up at him and his smile grew. Slowly he started relaxing himself, the tension slowly leaving from their earlier conversation.  For a moment they stared at each other, inches from one another before he felt her soft lip on his again.


His eyes closed as he enjoyed the tender kiss.

His hand traveled down the spine if her back and then pulled her closer at her waist. The kiss was slightly deepened, but he was a bit more cautious this round, not wanting to lose control, like before.   

 

[FatedAttraction]

Evie smiled softly as they both relaxed around each other and she let out a soft sigh as she felt his lips responding to hers and soon his hands moving up and down her back and she allowed herself to be pulled against his chest, a small smile on her lips as they kissed.


Her hands curled up in his shirt as their kiss deepened, and she kept her eyes closed as they kissed, and soft moans started to soon leave her lips as he continued to deepen their kiss, and she rubbed his chest a bit too.

 

[SparkleBreaker]

Sawyer




A smile grew on his face as he could tell she was enjoying this from the soft moaning and he continued to deepen the kisses with each one. There were a few more kisses before he lightened up and slowly pulled out of it, stayed closed. This time around he was just going to play it safe and take it slow. His eyes fluttered open and he stared into her for a bit before brushing some of her beautiful red hair out of the way.


A smile grew on his as his fingers combed through her hair and went under her chin to keep her looking up at him before he leaned in to tease her slightly, by having their lips just brush. Sawyer than kissed her again, not wanting to end the little fun they were having right away.
