Soulmates

Chapter 54

When Bast grabbed Sadie and pulled her to a different room to talk, Sadie genuinely thought she would die. That was it. She lived a decent-ish life. She's dating someone; she had a ride-or-die. The only thing she hadn't done was have a gender crisis.

    "Kitten, me and Amos are leaving for the weekend," Bast said. "And because I refuse to raise a child with no social life, you are required to hold a slumber party. I already know that Carter would only invite Zia, so I am putting you in charge."

    Sadie fucking ascended into the heavens, because this is how you have a cool... mom? Aunt? Person your uncle is in a queerplatonic relationship with? Sadie wasn't sure what Bast was to her, but she was undoubtedly one of the three.

    "Now, don't go fucking crazy," Bast said, picking up Muffin and scratching his head. "Just your small friend group that you told me about. I trust you enough to follow that rule. Oh, and in case Zia and Carter randomly decide to get bold, tell them there are condoms. I put them in his bathroom."

    "Most guardians would try to stop that," Sadie said.

    "Most guardians don't give their kids sex education," Bast countered.

    Given the fact that they were Sadie's only friends, it was a relatively easy rule to follow.

    Jaz and Shel were the first people she told. In fact, she made a group chat just for that occasion.
