Mark up and left the day before Christmas. He took the rest of the caravan with him and promised to be back. They've got some deal or something going on. Of course I never know what's really happening. It keeps me out of trouble and I don't have to recuse myself if they get caught and need a lawyer. Can't say as it always feels good being out of the loop, but ignorance is bliss. Besides, Keirra, Quinn and I went to Kentucky for Christmas. Quinn had some wolf stuff to tend to with the full moon and all. It didn't go quite as planned, but he seems ok with that.
We had a good time in Kentucky though. It was pretty, though it didn't snow at all. I got Keirra a lock picking set and Quinn a hoodie that matches mine. Says Partner in Crime on it. Quinn did the sweetest thing. He took the deck of cards and wrote out what I mean to him and why he loves me on each and every card. I was floored. Nobody's ever done something like that for me. Anyway, Ko got me a compass that only points to Quinn. That way I can always find him if I need to.
Things have been weird since we got back to Rhy'din. Like Sai. She's always rubbing on and touching Quinn and it bugs me because he doesn't even seem to care. I shouldn't be jealous but I just can't help it. Too jealous and things got out of hand. I wanted what he was sharing with her. So he gave it to me. I have never known such horrific pain and sickness in all of my life. He was there through it all and now that I'm on the other side of it, we share a bond stronger than that of lovers or boyfriends. It's hard to explain.
Sai was there when I was feeling a little better. She touched me and oh my God! No wonder Quinn loves it when she's touching or rubbing on him! I felt dirty, like I was cheating on Quinn. He was sitting right there and I just wanted to hide somewhere. I know she meant well, but those kinds of things should only be shared between lovers.
Anyway, Mark's not going to like this one bit. He's going to toss me on my butt out of the camp. I just laid it on him that I'm gay, and now this. He reacted worse to knowing that Quinn was a werewolf than he did to my being gay so I know this is going to kill him that I allowed it to happen. Allowed it after promising I wouldn't. Not sure what to do about that until I see him again.
And then Keirra just takes off. Gerry was due to be home the day after Christmas and he didn't show. I've seen the way he dotes on Keirra and the way she used to punch him in the face for it. A guy sticks around after being punched in the face? That's love or masochism. Either way, he's not going to just not come back unless he can't. But she's gone. I called her a coward for running off. I shouldn't have done that. It probably made her want to be away from me and everything she's known. The girls, Ko included, are all runners. They don't stay where it's safe and where they have support. No, they run off, expecting us to chase them. I did that for Billie and it got me no where. I'm not chasing after them anymore.
Instead, I'm staying put. I'll build a home here with Quinn and when they decide that they're ready to simply be safe and warm and with family, I'll be waiting.
