Chapter fourty-two
It had become Friday sooner than the boys would've thought. The YoongAhn household, which was what the house's personal nickname-addict named it, was now filled with three boys running around to get ready.
They've been getting ready since they got out of school and only paused to eat the sushi they ordered and continued afterwards.
It had become 9 p.m. and all three of the boys were finally content with their looks. Not like they even need that much time to get ready.
Silas dressed casual but outgoing with a pirate T-shirt, a shirt and a woollen vest on top of a blue-coloured pair of jeans.
To tip off his look he chooses three necklaces, a ring and earrings.
With some wax, he put his hair in a messy hairstyle. His hair was naturally brown, but he chose to dye blonde because it matched his fur better.
For make-up, he smeared a little bit of lipstick on his already pink lips.
Jiwon on the other side chose a far less casual outfit.
On top of his favourite pair of black cargo pants, he wore a red turtle neck alongside a red-with-black blazer.
The only jewelleries he wore were a silver necklace and a pair of earrings.
He put on a bit of eyeshadow as only make-up.
But it's safe to say Minseok wore the most remarkable clothing
His outfit consisted of a black, tight, T-shirt and also a black pair of cargo pants. But this isn't the remarkable part of his outfit.
He put four pants chains on his pants. Had three rings on, a silver necklace, two black bracelets and a black bracelet-kind-of-thing around his upper arm which's name Silas didn't even know.
And a leather body harness. Black, of course.
His hair was parted in the middle and as makeup, he wore eyeliner.

After half an hour at Jake's party, a boy was pinned against the wall and his face was eaten.
It took the two best friends a split second to recognise them.
"Wait...Gabriël and Jake are?" Jiwon asks with withholding, unsure.
"Are what?"
"The m-word?" It took Silas a second to understand what Jiwon meant and he laughed.
"Yeah, Ji, they are the m-word. I thought you would've known already, though?"
"How could I?"
"Ehm...we were literally together last summer? Before the whole...you-know-what happened."
"I thought it was a fling!" Jiwon whisper-yells in defense.
"Nah bro, they're full-on dating. How do you not know? I think no one explicitly told you because it was already so obvious."
"But," Jiwon stops talking.
"But what?" Silas questions.
"But how can Gabriël trust him?"
"Jake may have been a so-called fuck boy in our high school days," Silas sighs, "He's a werewolf...Aren't dogs known to be the most loyal?"
"I think they-we are, but..." Jiwon's voice trails off toward the end of the sentence, making it hard to hear.
"What did you say, Ji?"
"But he gave Minseok a lap dance while he has a boyfriend," Jiwon mutters.
"But Minseok let him while he..." Silas halts talking mid-sentence.
"While he what?" Jiwon asks, looking puzzled.
"While he..." Silas thinks for a second and adds, "while he...knew...Jake...and Gabriël...are dating....? And he can't not-trust him anyway, your life revolves around your mate. It's not like they have any other choice than to trust and love each other to the fullest."
Jiwon looked shocked, "Ok ok, fair enough mister A. But Minseok knew? Really? How, though."
"Lorenzo's friends with Gabriël, so I think Minseok too."
"Wait, how do you know that?"
"I have P.E. with Lorenzo. He's really kind, I get why everyone loves him so much."
"He really is," Jiwon agrees without needing time to think over his answer.
"No, but yeah, it was Lorenzo who told me they were friends. It's not like Minseok's the talking kind," Silas says, rolling his eyes.
Jiwon laughs at that, "Fair enough. But he's warmed up towards us, isn't he?"
"Yeah, I think he is." I wonder exactly how hot things have gotten, though...Ew, wait never mind. I don't wanna know that much.
"You don't wanna know how much?" Jiwon asks Silas.
"What?"
"You said you don't want to know that much. Don't want to know how much?"
Shit, how do I mess up the same way again and again? "Nothing. Never mind."
Jiwon looks Silas up and down suspiciously and scoffs, "Hmmm, ok ok. But you owe me one," he says, smiling.
Silas sighs with relief, Jiwon normally hammers on about subjects he doesn't get until he understands. "Ok, Imma get some. Be right back."
"Yeah, you better."
Silas leaves Jiwon's side to get something to drink in the garden. While walking he once again thinks about his bestie and roommate. He would've been lying if he'd said he hasn't thought about them at least a dozen times since his visit to Ms. Archwood this Monday.
Of course, things have gotten heated up. That explains the overwhelming scent of Jiwon's I sometimes get! Minseok'd always been near them. How have I never seen the obvious,
I've even made jokes about it!
I may suck at this whole alpha-thingy, but I have always been good at the best-friend-thingy. I would even know about his crushes before he did.
He told me about the kiss. And after that nothing more. I thought that was all that happened.
Now the boy has probably lost his fucking virginity for hell's sake and I don't even know about it. Dammit.
It's been exactly two weeks since the full moon. He found his mate already two weeks ago and hasn't even tried to tell me. Why in Hades' name can he be this scared of telling me something? That's so not-Jiwon.
Silas was getting all worked up about something that's not even his business when he senses Jiwon again. I get that he followed me outside, it's too loud inside.
But there was some kind of twist in Jiwon's scent. It smelled...well...twisted.
"Silas?" Of course...
"Hey, Minseok. Liking the party?"
"So far so good," It doesn't really look like all was good.
"Minseok?"
"Mhm," the older says , looking over his shoulder.
"Are you sure everything's good?"
"Can you come with me for a sec?" Minseok hastily asks while he already yanks Silas by his arm with him, a little deeper into the garden and halts near the drinking table.
