Liam's POV
I tried everything I could to round up with the training so I can go see what they were both up to, but it took longer than expected almost 5 hours training, though on a normal day, training takes 6 to 7 hours daily. But those 5 hours seemed like an enternity to me, I just don't like seeing her close with any males, even if that male is her bestfriend. Cole doesn't like it either. When I was through with the training I rushed up to the room.
Not hearing any voices, I thought they were both engaged in something they shouldn't. So I quickly rushed in only for me to see them both playing board game. Its just board game thank goodness.
Liam breathed out a sigh of relief.
Then to make it look less suspicious I had to walk in, towards them as I did, I heard her heart beating fast.
'Whoa is she like checking me out? That was when I realized I was with just pants. This is a huge progress, I am glad she will be living with me here. So if she likes my chest that much, I will show it to her everyday.'
Then I asked a question asking how she was feeling, I guess she was really affected by my looks. Then Gabe shook her bringing her back from whatever thoughts she might have been thinking of.
She just muttered a little fine.
So I excused my self into the bathroom but I activated my hearing sense so as to listen in on their conversations. Ever since Gabe came, I have been eaves dropping lately. And I heard them say
"I didn't you just thought I did"
"Oh now, I am imagining things isn't it?"
"Yeah"
"Saw you staring at his bare chest" I am sure Gabe said that in a whisper cause it seemed lower than the other conversations so I crossed my fingers while listening to what she had to say about it she then said,
"What? No way why would you say that?"
"See, you are blushing I caught you, I better go down and leave you two love birds alone, so I can prepare your orange juice and candy"
I smiled knowing I was right she did like looking at my bare chest, now I have something to woo her with. Hopefully she'll come running to us(Cole and I)soon enough.
After a while, Liam walked back in to wearing a singlet on a short. Only to see Clara on the couch sulking.
'What could be bothering her now?'
"Clara what's wrong?"
"Nothing"
"Then why are you sitting here all alone sulking?"
"Nothing"
"Are you sure?" Liam asked and she just nodded
"Stop it, don't say that. I know something is wrong"
Liam spoke up feeling offended that she doesn't want to open up to him.
"I feel stuffed in here, it's like am a prisoner in here I want to go out, I don't like being locked up I want to be free to explore your world is that too much to ask?". Clara finally said.
"Clara no one said you are a prisoner here, you only assumed you are. I never withheld you from going out. You can go wherever you want to, but the only thing is you will be assigned a guard to go with you"
"But you didn't want me to go with you to see the training ground earlier" Clara said pouting like a kid.
Liam walked up to her and sat at the couch beside her, that's the first time in months that he is seated that close to her while she is awake. But then something next happened that threw him off balance. She leaned on his shoulder, Liam couldnt believe this, he thought he was day dreaming but feeling her skin on his broad shoulders made him so happy. But he needed to soothe her at the moment and reminisce on what just happened later.
'She can't be sad on her birthday. She needs to know the truth its because I care about her that's why I told her not to.'
"Come on Clara I did that for your own good, remember that night Gabe and I came to your room and I transformed in front of you, you were very terrified by my form. And that was just me, now we have hundreds in each sections and you seeing them transform might make you fall sick cause you aren't fully recovered yet"
"But how can I be used to them if I don't see it more often?"
"Clara, be practical. Okay you can see my form any time you want to."
"Hmm, not enough"
"But I already promised you earlier to take you with me next time, when you are ready"
"I just feel stuffed Liam so please take me out of here right now"
"Okay I will"
"You will? Yeah so let's go now" Clara said excitedly
"Wait a little bit, I will take you somewhere only I know about later tonight"
Clara's face lit up and she stopped pouting and sits up right smiling now.

"Eric stop making a whole lot of noise you are distracting me" Gabe said while trying to bake a chocolate cake for Clara himself.
"Why? Should I just stand like a statue all because you are baking a cake that doesn't look like one?"
"Don't mock me young man, I personally googled it online one day"
"Oooh who would have thought? Gabe the caterer, Gabe the baker Gabe the...."
"Okay enough Eric"
"One question though"
"Go ahead not like if I told you not to ask you would"
"Haha catching on brother, anyways *coughs* after you googled how to um bake cake, have you actually practicalised it? No offense"
"None taken.. But um I haven't"
Eric bursted into roar of laughter. He began rolling on the floor due to this revelation.
"What?" Gabe asked with all seriousness like there is nothing wrong in what he just said.
"Well, not to say much but if this, is what you are making for Liam's woman on her birthday, don't be surprised he might make you his dinner tonight instead"
"What do I do it's almost 6:30 PM Eric, its getting pretty late for a cake to get ready."
"That's why I am way ahead of you, the cake is being designed by my cool chef this instance as we speak"
"Why didn't you tell me earlier that you had already gotten that sorted out? You made me mix eggs, look at me I smell like margarine and baking powder"
"Who was the one who went to the kitchen and packed 10 cups of flour, 1 crate of eggs, 4 rolls of margarine into my kitchen to make God knows what without telling me about it? So I just watched you it was when you started soaking the eggs and splashing them all over your body did I know you had no idea of what you were doing Gabe. You googled it isn't that wonderful?"
"Come here, come give me a hug Eric"
"There is no way, I am coming close to you Gabe, you look like a disaster"
"Oh really"
"Yeah, catch me if you can"
"Oh you just run Eric you better not stop cause if I get you, you will hug this disaster alongside me"
So they began chasing themselves
Eric and Gabe has become close during the little time they've spent together.
