Eivind hadn't liked the way things had gone down but by Sig's recollection neither had Stellan. The big male wasn't proud of himself but he was clearly happy to see Sig. He knew Stellan well enough at that point that he trusted him to some degree. He was a little irritated that he'd allowed Sig to go at all but he could imagine the little wolf didn't take no for an answer. Eivind only nodded in return, looking to Blue when he crawled sleepily out of the truck.<br/><br/>“I don't really think anyone could have had a more exciting night than you but it seems like Sig gave it a good effort.” He turned away from the pair, leading Blue back towards the truck. “Get some rest, you two.”<br/><br/>Eivind opened the door for Blue to get into the front seat and resumed his place in the driver's seat. He was frowning now, pulling out and getting back on the road.<br/><br/>“Sig went with Stellan back to his pack. To make a long story short, he got into a fight with one of the wolves there and then mated with Stellan. Properly mated. You can smell it on them from ten feet away. He wanted to try.. you know I don't know really what he was thinking. That he'd get the sneak on Lofgren? Try to get some helpful bit of information to bring home?” Eivind shrugged. “Lofgren made Stellan do it.” That left a bitter taste in the back of his throat though he knew it could have been worse. He knew that Sig enjoyed being with Stellan. He'd never asked him if he wanted it to be permanent but the little wolf had been happy to be reunited with his mate. That was a good sign at least. He reached for Blue, running fingers through his lover's messy hair, eyes still on the road.<br/><br/>“Do you want something for your head? Some breakfast? Something for your ass, maybe? You know, I didn't plan on fucking you again. You got to drinking and wouldn't be refused.” Eivind looked over to smile vaguely, reminded Blue of how their night had gone.<br/><br/><br/>--<br/><br/><br/>Sig worried that he'd be greeted with a sort of coldness. That Stellan hadn't been fretting like he'd been at being separated, and with time to think about it, realized it wasn't something he wanted. Or now was just some sort of obligation. Being apart planted seeds of doubt but some worries were put to rest when Stellan pulled him in close.<br/><br/>“Yeah, I think so too,” Sig agreed. It made him feel better to know Stellan was feeling the same as him. Reassuring.<br/><br/>“You don't need to apologize. If anything, I'm more to blame. I made you take me in the first place.” Sig was leaning heavily against him, already feeling his heart rate slowing, comforted when that sense of unease faded from him. Sig looked to see Eivind leaving.<br/><br/>“I understand why he's so crazy sometimes. It makes you irrational.” Because there wasn't anything rational about Sig's sudden neediness. He'd been happily alone most of his life but couldn't stand to spend that night away from Stellan despite his exhaustion. Had he started to change before the mating and he'd just not seen it or was it his instincts going crazy as every primal nerve within him was set ablaze?<br/><br/>“I'm so tired Stellan, and I don't want to talk about any of it just yet. Can we please just go lay down?” They could face the realities later and have an adult conversation. For now though he just wanted to give to the instinct and allow himself to curl up with Stellan. He didn't have the patience, or the words just then. Things would be clearer with a few hours sleep, for the both of them.
