Chapter 23
” sorry miss, did you lose something in my ” I stopped him before another word escaped his pretty mouth.
I pulled at his neck kissing him smack on the lips. My eyes were closed tight as I pressed my lips on his. Just like always he took control moving his lips against mine.
” I don’t usually let girls aggressively kiss me” he said as he grabbed my waist ” but since it’s a beautiful day I’ll let you be an exception” he finished showing me that cocky smile.
When I heard the sound of people coming I quickly turned around and walked away from him.
I pressed my finger to my lips as I walked away. cheeky bastard.
End of Flashback
Leon could always make light of a situation and he never failed to bring a smile to my face. Just like jayson does.
” Maybe you should think about spending a few days with them both. Since he paid for your getaway why don’t you go ona family holiday” mom said an hour later as she chopped onions since she was having guests over later.
A holiday, a family holiday. This would be our first one and were not even together.
Well I guess if jourtney and scott can do it so can we.
I thought about it for the rest of the day as I drove us to Leon’s place. I don’t think jay would be completely happy if we waited until tomorrow he wanted to see his dad today.
As Leons house came into view I cast a glance back at jay in the car seat to see him smiling.
I spotted his car in the driveway which thankfully meant that he was home.
” hey hey jay just wait” he wriggled as I started to take him out of the seat.
He slipped down the seat and through my legs. With my back still towards his house I heard the sound of his voice.
” Jayson my boy come here” I breathed in a deep sigh, their moment was just too sweet I didn’t want to watch.
It would just tear my heart in two.
I closed the door and finally turned around. Leon stood in his suit with jayson placed on his hip. Seeing them two together continues to send me to a nearly grave. Jayson starts to show more features each day.
God must have wanted to punish me as he literally made a mini Leonardo.
” your son was moody all day because he wanted to see you, I thought I needed to” he raised his hand stopping me from speaking.Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
” I get it, jayson wanted to see me but you didn’t. spare me the torture” I stood outside gaping at his back as he turned and walked into the house.
I groaned. Now it was my fault.
” you’ve got to see where hes coming from girly” I looked up and saw harry standing at the door. He had a glass of coke in his hand.
If im being honest I completely forgot he was still here.
Leon judged harry well, there has been no issues at all. I sighed as I walked up the steps to the door.
” I know harry I know” I patted him on the shoulder slipping inside.
” how have you been harry, I’ve seen your online store its looking good” he stared at me.
I felt like he was trying to decipher whether I was being real or fake but in all honesty I did know about his small business, no doubt that Leon had helped him.
He pulled out a chair in the living room ” its good, thanks to Leon I’m out of stock I’ve had to start selling other things now” I smiled.
” are you staying or just dropping him off” Leon came into the room he walked around me looking around for something. Looking for a bag.
I noticed how harry stood up and slipped out ” im just going to play with jayson” nice one harry.
I took harry’s chair.
” we will stay for a bit” I said, as soon as my words left my mouth he nodded turning around.
I made the mistake of grabbing onto his arm. I watched his freeze completely. He angled his head watching my hold on him.
I brought my hand back realising what I just did. Are you trying to get yourself in trouble liz. Lets not give him mixed signals now.
Thinking about it im about to give him some more mixed signals.
” I actually wanted to ask you something” I raised my eyes hoping to see his own but it was like he couldn’t even look at me.
I groaned mentally ” can you look at me Leon, I cant speak to the back of your head” I snapped. When his eyes snapped to mine I instantly regretted it.
” I’ll respect your distance liz but that means you have to respect me when I say I cant look at you when I so desperately want to hold you, feel you, kiss you” he spoke in a dark tone advancing towards me. I stepped back once.
He stopped atogether. He closed his eyes ” what did you have to ask?” he said impatiently.
” I think it would be good for jayson if we did a trip together. It would give you some more time with him and even though we arent together I really want you to create some good memories with him” how I said that with him looking at me like that was already difficult.
I watched his hand come and run through his hair. ” do you mean just me and jayson”
“NOOO!!!” I stood back realising that I just screamed that.
” I mean the three of us if you have time. I understand if its not great timing and I’m not forcing you but I think…”
” I’m in ”
I stopped when I heard him. I also stopped when I saw the smirk on his lips.
” I agree with you Charlize, it would be the perfect way for me to spend quality time with jayson” I nodded my head pleased he understood that, it wasn’t for me and him but for our son.
“but”
Spoke too soon. Too fucking soon.
He stepped towards me. He grabbed my chin tipping it up so I was forced to stare up at him. ” it also gives me the perfect opportunity to make things right. Me, my beautiful queen and our son. theres no other place I’d rather be”
