(Right after the ride back to Alec-Zander house Comes to an end)....
.....Videl's Pov :
I felt like this ride would never end, in the middle of the woods resides the creepy on the outside but warm on the inside residency of my Young master Alec-Zander, the mansion is a home for all us servants and a place we cherish to death, I myself hate the woods because of my past traumas yet I still find the endless forest to be more of a home to me than the buzzing city,
I loved the long morning rides, especially when I'm riding my motorcycle, it's a little bit annoying to drive a car, I feel less free but I can't complain, it's my job to replace Victor whenever it is necessary to do so,
As I parked the car right outside the Dark mansion, I quickly got out in order to open doors for everyone as part of my duties for tonight,
I saw the Twins, our Smartass but loyal young servants Vivek and Vishal come out of the mansion, they were approaching me fast with a look of concern on their faces, since we have called in for a doctor on our way and informed them to get more rooms ready for our unexpected guests, they must've caught on the hint that something major has occurred,
the twins never stop working or choose to sleep when master is outside the house, no matter how late at night it is or how exhausting it can get, they never close an eye until they make sure that everyone is home safe and sound,
" Is everything alright Videl? Isn't it too early to return at this time?is someone hurt?! is it Master Alec?! something definitely happened!!" Vishal asked panicking slightly, actually she was in a hysterical state, her lavender dyed hair was in much more messier bun than usual, there was obvious tea stains all over her glittering turquoise uniform that she always keeps tidy and clean,
" You guys have been gone for a little bit compared to the actual time of the ceremony?! and then out of nowhere you called in for a doctor?! So I can only imagine something must've happened? The doctor is already here!" Vivek quickly finished his sister's question, he was as well panicking,
I sighted " Rodrigo" is all I said and It was enough to say the least,
as their faces drop with disappointment, The twins exchanged a look of knowledge between them, that man Rodrigo has made a name for himself among us the servants that the moment something happens to Master we can easily deduce he's got a hand in it,
and this time it only as bad if it's not one of the worst Bullsh!ts he has ever pulled on yet
When Victor told me about what happened in the ballroom my blood started boiling, at that time I was ready to shoot that A-hole in both of his eyes but Victor begged me to not interfer,
It would only make it worse, unfortunately it can be true, sometimes the best way to help out is by staying out of the way,
Victor, that goody two shoes, I don't know why he out of all of us has the patience to handle The Rodriguez shenanigans, after all it was that man who made Victor hate himself,
[Rodrigo treats Victor, master Alec and everyone else like we're freaks when he's a monster!]
Realizing I strayed away from my original task I hurried back to open the limo doors and help everyone get out,
When I opened the door however, I found a scene I couldn't honestly describe whether it was endearing or worrying,
Master Alec-Zander was still unconscious but laying down on miss Alex's lap, she had her hand gently ruffling his long blond hair,
Victor on the other hand was soundly asleep like a baby with his head resting on Aleeza's shoulder,
I've never personally seen him in his asleep state, he's usually always awake before everyone and asleep after everyone,
That man called Leon looked like a third wheel in this k-drama like scene, sitting by himself and watching the youngsters with him, although he had a slight smile on his face,
This is my chance, I thought as I grabbed my phone quickly and took a picture of this moment, the girls gave me a knowing look, they too wouldn't pass on taking a picture of a sleeping baby Victor,
It's like one of those good moments in the midst of a sad day,
"Are you gonna blackmail Victor with this?" miss Alex joked
I smiled a little, I don't like smiling but I can't help it "maybe" I simply replied while Shaking Victor up, he finally started to wake up,
.....Victor's Pov:
My body felt heavier by the second as I sensed someone shaking me a little bit, they called my named several times
Did I fall asleep?
I opened my eyes and slowly positioning myself in my seat, I realized I was burdening someone's shoulder with my heavy head,
"As much as I enjoyed watching you fall asleep sweetheart I have to admit I can't feel my shoulder anymore Victor hehe" it was Miss Aleeza that spoke those words to me,
I felt a wave of embarrassment wash over me and I could swear that my face at the ty was as red as a rose,
Was I asleep the whole time on her shoulder?
[Where did your self composure go Victor?!]
" I deeply apologize Miss Aleeza... I did not know that I would fall asleep that easy... forgive me it has been a wild day for everyone including myself!" I quickly muttered those words, I've never felt this anxious or embarrassed in my life
Aleeza's gentle smile only grow bigger as she replied to me " I'm not scolding you sweetheart! it's fine seriously! ....Alex is right you should loosen up a little Victah! it's fine to just call me Aleeza or even Azee!"
" I would find it rather difficult My Lady... Aleeza is a far more beautiful name for me to shorten it" I don't know how I mustered up the courage to say such a tacky sentence but I just did it, I really said that
[ I keep flirting unconsciously with miss Aleeza tonight.... I've never been like this before]
...Aleeza's pov:
" I would find it rather difficult ... My lady...Aleeza is a far more beautiful name for me to shorten it" said an obviously blushing Victor, Now I'm blushing too!
[Omg that was such a nice flirt! although I think I heard it somewhere? what movie was it again?]
"Ohhhhh you're making me feel shy Victah!" I playfully said hitting him gently on his shoulder, he hid away his face in embarrassment
"Well you earned it Honey" I added with a wink
Looking at my direction again He anxiously smiled asking "earned what Aleeza?" He sounded like he was trying but hilarious failing to sound confident,
" I'll tell you once we put this poor angel in his bed" I said pointing at Alec who was still knocked out in Alex's lap,
....Alex's Pov:
Ugh flirting seriously you two? is this really the time
" Well hello can someone help me out here I can't feel my thighs jeez?! Ppl of this Household sure do have heavy heads!" I whined trying to wiggle from under Alec's head without actually disturbing him,
To be honest I was only pretending to be bothered, when in reality I would love for him to keep laying on my lap like this all night long if it means it'll help him up just a little, but I Know the best thing now is to put Alec in his bed where he can at least be more comfortable,
I've known Alec-Zander since highschool, it was hilarious when sometimes we'd have sleep overs at his house and his king size bed was so comfy we'd end up asleep like kids before doing any activities together like watching a movie or skincare,
Victor finally moved from his place and with Videl's help he was able to get Alec out out the car,
Victor then carried him bridal style into the house followed by the twin servants while we got out of the car standing next to Videl, and by we I meant myself Aleeza and Leon
" Your Hubby got some serious flirting skills Azee... I've never seen him act this way ever since I met his tsundere Ass! " I casually said bumping her shoulder
"Eh hubby? Oh ah you mean Victor! well I mean this is rather a funny thing to ask but is Victor really single? How possible is that! He's A whole package deal!!" Aleeza asked with big hopeful eyes,
"Girls is this really the time to be discussing a person's love life?! there's a lot of outstanding People in the world that can't seem to find love... being a package deal doesn't secure you love!" Leon replied to Aleeza jokingly
Videl's cleared her throat "Leon is right...I deal with this sh!t too I mean look at me I'm a hot B!tch but no one can take me out on a date...and honestly I gave up on that BS a long time ago... as for Victor he is single...I never in the few years I knew him...ever saw him actually dating anyone or being obviously attracted to anyone... I tried setting Victor on blind dates and even dating apps for God knows how long and he would always refuses...like his life depends on it or something happens... I congratulate you Aleeza you're the first human being in my lifetime I see him actually interested in like real interested sis... he's f**king into you" Videl said,
hearing that, Aleeza had a dumb smile on her face,
Honestly that's cute ...a little ugh but sure cute I just don't do romance much but sure I'm happy for her, I mean she freaking got Victor! that's secret achievement unlocked
"keeping it real with ya honey pie...I think Victor doesn't understand that he's being loved... I don't think he realizes we actually give two F**ks about him!" Videl said slowly yawning
Aleeza looked at her as if she's waiting for her to keep going,
a sleepy Videl yawned once again as she continued explaining "Victor once told me that he feels like a burden all the time to other people...which is crazy like we all depend on Victor... he's the real MVP here! he's our Handyman... he does everything from bottom to top making sure that everything is 100% perfect...and without him most of us the servants and Master Alec would've had a hard time...god knows he pulled me from the depths of death and gave me a new shot at life" she said, her lips curling up into a sad smile as she continued praising the man she works under
"MF cleaned my way for me... without Victor... I wouldn't have lived till today.. and the twins Vivek and Vishal they would've remained on the run for the rest of their lives...without Victor master Alec would've ended his own life Long time ago" she added, stretching her arms awkwardly, it was obvious that Videl was feeling emotional but she was trying to hide it,
Listening to her words I remembered when Victor Spoke to me before the ceremony and said that he was jealous of me,
Jealous of whom when you're the gift that keeps on giving, how come you're jealous of me when you give more than you ever get and when you forgive those who purposely harm you for their own personal gain?
[Victor you're a goddamn saint!]
" You know something I realized I was being a D***head to him this whole day...I screamed at Victor and I acted pathetically...I really need to apologize" I quietly stated.
" I was waiting for you to acknowledge that" Aleeza said replying to my statement,
I side eyed her saying " hey no need to guilt trip me Azze...ugh I was just hoping that I'd get along with Victor for once in my life!"
" I don't know what's the problem between you and Victor is considering I'm new here but I think if you guys can just sit and talk like normal human beings .... you'll eventually come to an understanding" Said Leon whom I kinda forgot that he was still here
" no shit Sherlock? ya think! I've been trying to ask him for a coffee or just get a moment of his time to explain to him that I want to be his friend but all Victor ever does is apologize saying he has no time for such engagements!" I replied, it was true
every single time I tried befriending Victor, it always ends up to be a failure, it was obvious that he doesn't want me as a friend,
[but since he admitted today on the reason why he avoids me, maybe I can do something about it?]
"okay time out Queens! stop talking about Victor and get inside! it's cold can't you feel it?!" Videl said rushing us to go inside,
" ladies first" Leon said extending his hand ushering for us to go ahead of him
Aleeza Snickered at his attempt at chivalry, Videl unamused opened the door for us to walk in,
... slight time skip...
....Leon's Pov:
few minutes have passed, we were gathered inside the large living room, I sat on a seriously comfortable green apple shaped sofa chair,
Alec-Zander's mansion didn't fail to amaze me, the exterior design was Really specific and an usually but as we entered the mansion I was more interested by the interior design,
everything was either in black, white or any possible shade of green,
upon asking Vidal she said that this was a two story and a basement mansion with 6 beds and a total of 7 bathrooms, there's all sort of other intriguing set of rooms, Library, indoor pool, this place even got a game room
Videl even mentioned she was going to make sure that Sundar is doing okay, I asked her who's Sundar and she replied that it was Alec-Zander's pet Squirrel Monkey
[ This boy has a monkey as a pet?! that's a lot of dedication]
shortly after disappearing into one of the rooms, Videl came back with a small adorable monkey hanging over her head "oh there's a garden in the back and a short stone bath that leads into a small guest house that Victor occupies currently" Videl said gently removing the monkey from her hair and allowing it to descend to the ground
" be careful she might poop on you... Naughty Sundar does that to strangers very often!" Videl warned me as the little monkey approach me with puppy like eyes,
it didn't stop me from picking up the little monkey in my hands, I was in fact terrified She'd poop on me but I instantly fell in love with her adorable stare,
I didn't even knew monkeys could be this cute,
" Come here Sundar" Alexis who was sitting in the couch in front of me, Sundar the beautiful little monkey left my side jumping over the coffee table and to Alexis lap,
"such a good girl! gimme a hug!" Alexis praised the Small animal, Sundar wrapped her little monkey paws around Alexis's neck
" Are you okay Leon?!" Aleeza who noticed I was staring too much at the animal asked me
" oh yeah I just never seen someone in my life with a pet monkey! Squirrel Monkeys are undeniably adorable" I replied, the little monkey hanging on my daughter's neck turned her head towards me as if she knew I was praising her, it made me laugh a little
" yeah beautiful but a literal definition of troublemakers!! Squirrel Monkey are so freaking hard to take care of and they poo anywhere" Videl the maid interfered whining,
" I don't know why but Master Alec-Zander has always been fond of Monkeys...We got him Sundar two years ago after his therapist recommend he gets a pet" The twin servants said as the came barging in,
the twins were average in hight, and obviously built for a fight, both Vivek and Vishal had their muscles showing from underneath their unusual glitzy work uniform, Vishal the girl dresses in an above-knee maid sparkling turquoise dress with white apron on and harbor grey knee high boots on, meanwhile her brother Vivek dressed in a white dress shirt with pants and a jacket same color as his sister's uniform also sparking from miles away while he wore a harbor grey pair Dr Martens boots,
they both had their hair died in a lavender like color and matching color eye contacts, with childish like hair accessories on Vishal wearing a single turquoise hair clip on her hair while Vivek had a fedora hat in the same color,
[I never thought I'd live to see a turquoise fedora]
their appearances were definitely out of the ordinary, but I didn't think they looked bad, they looked more like garden fairies,
" well I've heard of support dogs and ppl raising cats and frogs ... this is somewhat refreshing to see someone actually raise a monkey!" I stated earning a funny stare from the twins as they said in union " who is this man" pointing at me
" I'm Leon! Leon McClanahan" I replied smiling at the twins however they didn't smile,
Alexis noticed how the twins were glaring at me, she swiftly removed Sundar who was wrapped up around her neck and handed it back to Videl as she stood up
" take it easy lavender heads Leon is a good guy...side note he kicked the shit out of Rodrigo tonight" Alexis said reassuring the twin servants,
upon hearing her words their tensed up shoulders finally relaxed, they twins were no longer glaring at me,
" I've been meaning to ask you this Mr Leon by why did you punch Rodrigo" It was Aleeza who asked me this question,
I threw a look at Alexis to see whether it's okay for me to explain it, Alexis signed to me that she wanted to take lead in the conversation, she was going to explain everything by herself to Aleeza,
I gave her an acknowledgement nod and remained silent waiting for her to explain to Aleeza, meanwhile Videl and the twins took interest in the conversation so they all gathered, sitting each in a chair waiting as well for Alex to finally speak.
