Chereads / His Deepest Desire / Chapter 9 - ***NINE***

Chapter 9 - ***NINE***

My plan with Vicki didn't push through, she called to cancel. Apparently, something came up with her secret boyfriend who she refused to tell me about and I haven't gotten the time to grill her about it, so we decided to catch up another time.

I decided to spend my time scrolling through Facebook and Instagram, since I was practically jobless.

Having nothing to do I decided to   watch funny videos on Instagram to while away time but ended up falling asleep in the process.

I was woken from  my sleep by the gentle sound of a knock on the door.

" Roy, can I come in" the soft sound of Alexander voice was heard from the other side of the door.

" Come in" I said, sitting up on my bed as the door opened and Alexander came to view.

" Hey, little man" 

" Hi Roy" he answered as he climbed on the bed to sit beside me.

" How was school today" 

" it was fine, we had an outdoor activities today so we went to the park " he said excitedly.

" Really, did you enjoy yourself" I said in a cheerful voice.

" I had a lot fun. I love school"

"So what's your favorite subject"

"Arts"

A soft smile touched my lips, art had also been one of my favorite subject. It's been so long since I last drew.

My smile widen " I'm really happy to hear that, it's also one of my favorite subjects too"

" Really" he asked excitedly as I nod in response.

" Maybe one of these days we could draw together and you can show me all your drawings" I beamed at him 

" I would love that, thank you Roy" he answered, excitement clear on his face which was accomplished by a bright smile that reaches his eyes.

" Have you eaten love"

"No, Carolyn went to get groceries" he answered softly.

" Okay come on love let go to kitchen and get you something to eat "

I took his hand as we climbed down from the bed and out the door on our way down to the kitchen.

On getting there I ransacked the kitchen and saw a left over spaghetti and chicken from yesterday and decided to heat it up and both Alexander and I eat since I was kind of hungry too, as Alexander tells me more about his other school activities of the day which really shows how much he loves going to school.

" Can we watch a movie Roy at the theater room"  Alexander asked eagerly

"Sure, lead the way" I replied, smiling at him  as  he smiled back at me  showing off his dimples he definately inherited from his dad.

Oh! My love for dimples.

We went back upstairs to a direction opposite from that of  my room as he opened a door, I was amazed by how big and spacious the theater room was. It was truly beautiful, we decided to settle   on one of the couches as Alexander smuggled close to me.

I tooked the TV remote in front of me as I turned on the TV to Netflix asking Alexander what he wanted to watch. He couldn't make a choice and  after a little bit of debate we settled for the cartoon  the Mitchell's and the machine as I cuddled him closer to me. Feeling a little chilly I brought out a huge blanket that I saw kept on the next chair beside me, I put the huge fluffy blanket over the two of us as we watched the movie and didn't realize when I drifted off to sleep again.

Giovanni POV

It was quite late when I entered the house, the meeting I had today was quite long because of a Chinese business partner who didn't understand English and we had to look for an interpreter. I walked into the living room to find it  dark, " they are probably asleep" I thought to myself. I decided to check on Alexander in his room  but his room was empty, panicking I went to Royalty's Room to find it empty also. I was about to phone Carolyn when I heard noise coming from the theater room.

I walked into the room and saw Royalty and Alexander asleep as I smiled and walked over to her, she looked so cute with her long red hair and her plumb lips that I so badly wanted to kiss right now. I removed her hair from her face and kissed her forehead. I turned on the TV as I  picked up Alexander making him  wrap his hands around my neck. I walked to his room and layed him down as I placed a kiss on his forehead and placed his blanket on him.

I walked back downstairs and went to the kitchen for some water before going back to the theater room as I looked down at Royalty who looked more uncomfortable as I gently pick her up and walked to my room, and all I  could do was  imagine her reaction when she wakes up tomorrow which made me   chuckle softly not to wake her up. I layed her gentle on the bed as I  placed a duvet on her small figure then placed a gentle kiss on lip.

I went into the bathroom to freshen up as I came out with my boxer, I walked over her and  layed down on the other side of the bed, I felt her smuggled into me and I stiffened but relaxed. I drew her more closer and closed my eyes as darkness consumed me.
