“Yeah, I just told them that I was with some friends. I think this relationship isn’t something I can explain over the phone,” she says with a laugh.

“This might be overstepping, but can you tell us why your parents are overprotective?” Levi asks.

Kyla lets out a sigh. “I will, but over breakfast. I’m starving,” she says as her stomach lets out a loud growl.

“Alright, we will feed you. We have some things in the closet for you if you wanted something different to wear,” Grayson says pointing to our walk-in closet, but it might as well be another bedroom with how big it is.

“Wow, you didn’t have to do that,” Kyla says in a shocked voice.

“We wanted to. We wanted you to be comfortable here,” Levi says as he stands up and grabs Kyla’s hand to drag her to the closet.

He opens the door, and she covers her mouth in shock.

“I think you guys are stretching it a little bit by calling this a closet. This is more like a bedroom with drawers, hooks, and hangers,” she says walking deeper into the room.

“Well, we needed a place to fit all of our clothes. We all have a section designated to us. This one is for you,” Ethan says pointing to the left side where we have clothes and shoes in her size. For the last couple weeks, we have taken the opportunities to sneak a peak at her sizes.

We wanted to get something that would fit.

“Well, I don’t really need anything but some underwear and something for my feet. My feet are always cold,” she says as she grabs a black lacy thong and black stockings to wear with the black sweater she’s currently wearing.

“Fuck,” Ethan growls out.

“You’re going to be the death of me,” Grayson says.

“I don’t know how we are going to have a serious talk while you are wearing that,” Levi grumbles while grabbing himself some sweatpants.

Kyla narrows her eyes at him, and he crosses his arms over his chest showing just how much the sweats reveal. Levi looks absolutely hot in them. I’m sure that everyone in this room would agree.

“If you get to dress half naked, then so do I,” he says with a smirk.

“Oh, it’s on,” Grayson says grabbing a pair of grey sweatpants and sporting his own smirk.

“Sometimes I swear that I’m dating children,” Ethan mutters as he puts on the most form fitting pants he owns.

I roll my eyes at all of them.

“Well, I can’t be left out,” I mutter as I leave the room in my boxers.

“I need coffee if I’m going to deal with you four!” I holler on my way out of the bedroom.

I hear them chuckle as I make my way to the kitchen.

When they all enter, I already have a coffee going as I’m grabbing ingredients out of the fridge.

“By the way, I’m not sleeping in the middle every night. You guys wouldn’t let me leave to pee this morning,” I say with a mock glare in their direction.

When they all look at me curiously, I shrug and explain how they were all holding me down, which causes them to burst in laughter that I couldn’t move this morning.

I grumble as I make my coffee, but I’m sure my amusement shows in my face.

We all help making a breakfast of pancakes, bacon, and fruit bowls. Making and eating breakfast together is rare of us since we usually don’t get up at the same time.

Ethan and Levi like to get up at the crack of dawn and exercise, whereas Grayson and I like to exercise at night. Grayson gets up and checks the news, while I get as many minutes as possible of sleep that they will allow. In the end, I usually grab some fruit and yogurt on my way out the door.

I know if I hadn’t of been trapped this morning, I would have been back in bed getting that precious sleep.

Something tells me that this conversation is going to be a pretty serious and heavy one but, like the rest of the men, I want to know everything and anything about Kyla.
