Chapter 341: Get comfy brother
Lucky POV
Some women come and bring Sheldon some broth pushing the food we're trying to feed him away back to us.
They start cleaning and applying some thick white paste on his wound quickly covering it back up.
"Kenny sit and eat kid. Your mom will kill us if you come back too thin." I say laughing throwing him a water pack.
"How is..she Kenny?" Mumford asks.
Kenny's face lights up "Well we're getting a new daddy and yes he makes her as happy as he can considering." Kenny says vaguely.
"Wait... what!" Sheldon chokes out.
"Oh yeah mom and Mr. Nunzio are the hot new couple. He asked me for her hand, he probably do the same when we get home with you. Ohh and the ring he got her can buy our house at least three times. You should see his compound! All the stories you guys made fun of Denalii telling like he was just dramatic he wasn't bro just wait."
We all laugh as Kenny keeps rambling on.
"She's found love and she's smiling Sheldon I can't wait till your home. She's going to drive you crazy with all the hugging and kissing. Oh and the smothering so much smothering!" Kenny whines.
"I..can't wait." Sheldon moans out. A woman comes lifts his head giving him a small cup with gross green mossy looking stuff in it making him drink it all as he gags.
"Stop pain for him now, he will sleep till light." She says running off.
Women start bringing more food and more drinks as we sit laughing and talking about home filling them in on stuff that's happened.
"Time to rest now. Come please." The small man says waving us all to follow him.
He walks us just a bit down the road from the towns fire pit.
He pushes a door open and waves us all in. It's small but they have made us all a place to sleep.
There is tons of cushions pillows and blankets padding the floor. Everyone comes in as far as they can and we all pretty much drop. Mumford is over off to the side they moved him down from the stretcher, Nate and Kenny are on each side of him. Then Finn, me and Jasper.
"Lucky tell me what's really happening at home." Finn says turning on his side to face me.
"We pretty much covered on all the highlights." I say rolling to my back.
"In all the stories River wasn't mentioned at all or if she was it was very little. So again tell me what's really going on at home." He say putting his hand on my shoulder. I turn my head and look at him.
"There's plenty of time to get in to the dark shit later. You guys need to hear the good stuff right now, you've had your share of the dark for long enough." I say.
"Bullshit! What happened?" He says loudly. Some of the men look over then go back to what they're doing. Most know the whole River situation.
"It's been hard on her. It's been shit honestly! I don't think you realize how many lives the two of affect. Your missed and your so loved. We even receive letters of support and donations to bring you guys home. Of course Lucas donates those to the Wounded Warrior fund in yours and Mumfords names." I tell him. He's getting frustrated now cause I'm trying to redirect him from the subject. He huffs and rolls to his back.
"I only got her for such a short time, jealously is still hard. I want to know the bad to, I knew what this was getting into it and I knew the dark would be a huge part so please just tell me. I love her. I haven't been perfect and it's not going to be all sunshine and rainbows with my recovery, I miss her and I want to know her life so please. Letters and calls are all the good stuff but that's not life. Life is messy so I just want to be included in the messy."
"That's fair man I guess we really didn't even think of it like that." I say as I take a breath.
"I want you to rest cause tomorrow we've got a walk in front of us but I'll run down the shit we're dealing with and tomorrow while we walk I'll answer your questions and tell you more details. Deal?" I roll to look at him. He rolls to face me "I'll take it. Thank you Lucky. I wasn't sure if we would have a good vibe like I have with Pickle but I misjudged you." He say with a chuckle.
I laugh "No you were probably right, I'm a ass hole!"
"I'm not the easiest to get along with but we're a family and just like any other family some days are easier to love each other then others."
Mumford cries out in pain causing us all to still.
Then he screams loudly followed by a few gasps and small cries.
"It's a little nightmare he's fine." Finn says shrugging like it's a everyday thing. The quiet is different here. Here the quiet is just that.. quiet. It's dead air filled with nothingnes, It's the most erie feeling. I'm used to sounds and screams like that from Denalii, Pickle and River and they deal with mine but here they seem deafening making my stomach turn and twist in fear. I shudder as a chill runs through me.
"It's okay, it's safe here and that's just a small one, he'll pull himself out. Just leave us if possible, if it's bad you'll know and then we'll need your help." Finn says.
"Fuck living at the house with them was so rough at first from all the late night heart jumpers but now when I'm at Emerson's place I can't sleep without hearing them." Nate makes us all laugh.
"Your with them too?" Finn looks and sounds confused. I shake my head and Nate laughs hard "No! I'm not Krazien or Jasper over here trying to become some big harem with them. Just the one girl is enough for me and I'm learning men are more maintenance than the women around those parts so I'm good, Emerson is plenty for me!" Nate says laughing.
"No with Denalii and with you coming home our beds full." I laugh and a quick look of panic comes over his face as he looks over his shoulder at Sheldon.
"We will figure it out Finn. If he's what you need to feel complete then we will buy the bigger bed Denalii wants anyway. I just don't like when he gets his own way." I laugh making Finn finally laugh.
"I hate that to and he's good at it! Now quit stalling and spill." He says throwing a small pillow at me.
"Okay fine but I want a picture of us together first. We don't have one and I'm tried of being left out." I say.
"Okay now let's get into the heavy." I say throwing his pillow back "Get comfy brother."
