“So... how does it feel to be back”? Asked Sebastian once he spotted Christian.

“Feels good.” He nodded.

“Your brother’s mate is awake”? Asked Sebastian.

“Yeah... he is okay,” Christian nodded.

“I told you, you didn’t need to worry about him,” Sebastian shrugged.

“Why not? I saw what losing him did to my brother. I don’t ever want to see him like that ever again” Christian declared firmly.

“I know that. But, as much as you want to protect your little brother, he is not a kid anymore. You need to stop being overprotective of him”. Sebastian smiled.

.....

“I’m not overprotective of him” Christian denied immediately. Sebastian tilted his head with a raised eyebrow clearly denoting how he disagreed. “What? I just worry about him as his big brother”.

“You do a lot more than worry,” Sebastian pointed out. “I understand why you do that, now... but trust me... he can take care of himself.” Sebastian declared.

“Of course I know that! I made sure he is tough” Christian huffed.

“Well just so you know... you did a great job”. Sebastian shrugged. Christian shook his head tired and frustrated with this conversation as he headed off to get his suitcase. No, they were not living together. It’s just he was in a hurry to go to the hospital, to see Ashton and his brother that he left his luggage with Sebastian.

“Before you leave. I want your feedback” Sebastian stopped Christian before he could step out of the room.

“About what”? Christian frowned.

“About our trip? What did you think”? Sebastian raised an eyebrow.

“It was really great. Especially Paris” Christian let out a smile.

“But...”? Sebastian asked, sensing the tone of Christian’s words.

“Nothing. It’s just... good to be back”. Christian admitted honestly. It was true. No matter how much fun he had while he was away, there was no place like home.

“I figured as much” Sebastian ended up chuckling. “Anyways... I was planning to tell you... I got another offer” Sebastian admitted.

“So, you are leaving again”? Christian couldn’t help but ask this with a tinge of disappointment.

“Yeah, but not before two months.” Sebastian clarified. Christian smiled until he realised that was not all. “But, I might be gone for months,” Sebastian revealed.

“Okay... that sounds like a big opportunity” Christian tried to play it cool.

“It is.” Sebastian admitted. It was supposed to be happy news, and yet somehow there was no joy in revealing it. “It’s for a show where I’ll be playing the lead. Ironically, I’ll be playing a Vampire” Sebastian chuckled at that. “If it gets picked up for more seasons,I’ll be gone for longer.” Sebastian explained.

“Well, if it’s not this there will be something else” Christian snorted. Sebastian furrowed his brows, so Carson explained. “You’re an actor. That is your Job. No matter what role you take, it’s bound to keep you busy... to keep you away from here. Just like my Job is here. I look after my pack”.

“Is this really okay? We just started dating, and you’re okay with the long distance” Sebastian asked hesitantly. When he received no reply, Sebastian couldn’t help but jump to another conclusion, “or wait, are you... are you giving up on us”.

“No, I am not,” Christian clarified immediately. “It’s just... it’s gonna be hard. Being away from you... but, you have to do this. I saw you in action, you’re too good to give up on such an opportunity. I mean to be the lead on your own show? Man that’s awesome”! Christian cheered.

Sebastian stared at Christian blankly before engulfing him into a hug, “You are way too nice. It’s annoying” Sebastian declared with a hint of annoyance.

“Yeah, I am the annoying one,” Christian remarked sarcastically.

Pulling away from the hug Sebastian declared, “Well I, for one, am going to miss you”.

“I’ll be alright,” Christian teased.

“You can pretend to be a little bummed, you know”. Sebastian rolled his eyes.

“Well, this is nothing new for me, remember? I had a long time crush on you, which means that whenever you were away I missed you a lot initially. I mean, I know we weren’t dating, but we were friends”. Christian shrugged. 𝙛𝔯𝒆e𝔀e𝗯𝓷𝗼𝘃e𝚕.𝒄𝗼𝗺

“So... you just got used to my absence then?” Sebastian asked.

“Nope”! Christian clarified. “I just recalled how awesome it was to see you again. We would have fun whenever you’re back” Christian mumbled. “Over time, I used to look forward to it,” Christian smiled.

“We did have fun,” Sebastian chuckled. “I guess I’ll see you around then”.

“Yeah, besides it’s not like you’re leaving Tomorrow, we still have time”. Christian pointed out.

“Right,” Sebastian nodded.

“And if you miss me too much you can always call me” Christian shrugged.

“Yeah yeah, I got it” Sebastian shook his head before ending up laughing. “Well, since you’re away for so long I know you have a lot to catch up on. Not to mention you are supposed to have this ceremony as you take on pack responsibilities as the official Alpha. But, if you manage to find some spare time, we can still have a get-together, ” Sebastian offered.

“Sounds like a plan” Christian smiled before exiting the apartment. The pack house wasn’t that far away from Sebastian’s apartment, so he reached home pretty early. After taking a shower and a huge lunch, Christian headed straight to the office to take over the responsibilities he handed over to Caleb for the time being.

It was weird how since he came back his focus was fluctuating when it came to work. From time to time he found himself getting immersed into the weekend they had. The train ride together, or the shared ice-cream. These memories were also accompanied by involuntary smiles from time to time.

“Are you okay”? He heard a familiar voice ask from the door. It was none other than the pack beta, who was here on Christian’s orders. “You’re smiling like a crazy person”.

“I’m fine” Christian tried to brush it off, but when another while appeared on his face he sighed. “You know what, I am not. I’ve lost my mind” Christian groaned.
