AZRAEL MORGAN
"C'mon, big man,we gotta dress up and buckle up for landing." Lucie whispered in my ear,trying to wake me up.
I had passed out after our steamy hot intercourse earlier on. And had been woken up by my beauty man's alluring voice,which for a second I had assumed to be part of my dream,only to open my eyes and found his beautiful face closer to my own.
"Oh, you're up. Get ready for landing." He ignored my disgruntled groans and went ahead to rise from the bed and throw some clothes at me while spewing orders.
"Okay,I'm getting up. There's no need to continue being a mother chicken, dear husband."
"Oh, someone's snappy! Are you forgetting the fact that we're in a jet that's less than an hour away from landing?"
"Goddess,I apologise for forgetting that we're on a plane in the first place." I raised my hands up in surrender to show him that I'm done with my rude grumbling.
I collected all my clothes that my moody husband to be threw my way and made a beeline to the bathroom and washed up all the evidence of our spicy time together earlier and changed into my clothes. I left out some pieces of the attire like the scarf and sweater and only put on a sweatshirt,a pair of jeans, and a winter coat since Portofino isn't as cold as the Himalayas
I heard from Adrien that this year's winter was early, unlike the previous years,which is why I went for this choice of clothing.
I went back out to the main area of the jet and sat down,next to my Lucie, and buckled up my seat belt. I then turned around and kissed his chin and held his hand tight in my own over the console.
He apparently has plane jitters, especially towards landing.
We landed successfully and got off of the plane right after. I held my baby's hand and led him to the private parking space at the airport where we found my brother's Jeep Cherokee already parked and waiting.
He opened the car door and stepped out of the driver's side along with another person on the passenger side.
I was able to make out the person's features only after I got close enough to the car.
"Who's that over there?" Lucie mumbled under his breath. I'm sure he was curious as I was before recognizing that person.
"I think I know who it is,but we should let my brother introduce him to us."
"Okay,babe." He sighed,resigning from the topic.
When we made it to the car,I was pulled into a bone crashing bear hug. My brother really missed me. He made sure to insert all emotions he felt into the hug,he didn't need to say a single word because I felt it. Raw and pure love that he poured out into this hug.
After i had had enough,I tapped on his back to remind him of the company we had,and he pulled back.
"I missed you too, man,but I'm glad you weren't lonely without my presence this time round." I found myself speaking and glancing towards Julian with a smile.
I then stomped over to Julian and hugged him,almost lifting him off the ground.
"Thanks for keeping my silly brother company in my absence. It really put me at ease knowing he has someone here." I thanked him while twirling him around,subconsciously.
"Uh... umm... it's actually the other way round." He squeaked upon putting him back onto his feet.
He was all flustered and probably embarrassed from the way I twirled him around like he's some princess. That's when I realized my mistake. No wonder Adrien was trying to communicate with me through our link, but I had shut him out, thinking he was being jealous and possessive.
"I'm really sorry, Julian. I didn't mean to do that. It was purely instinctual,please forgive me."
"It's okay,Azrael. I was just caught off guard and shocked that you could carry me around like a ragdoll."
He had regained his cool and willed the blush way. He looked to be glowing ferociously. Had I not known better, I would have mistaken it for something else and not love.
My brother has a lot to tell me about how he managed to bag this hunk of a man he was afraid of wooing in the first place. I need to hear from both of them because it doesn't make sense at all,at least to me.
I had thought that Adrien and Julian's story would be like your typical romance where one is afraid to try love again because he was heartbroken while the other is busy suffering with unreciprocated love or something similar to that. But according to what I see,they seemed to have accepted each other rather smoothly.
I steeped back a few feet until I was next to my husband and placed a hand around his waist introduced him to Julian. They exchanged greetings and stepped forward for a hug.
"I'm so glad to meet you too, Luciano." Julian replied and stepped back from the hug,followed by my Lucie to where I was.
"I guess we should get going,we shall dicuss more later on while on the drive home. I wanna spend my time alone with my boyfriend." Adrien spoke up for the first time since we arrived.
Julian gave him a 'what the hell' look,clearly displeased about something. He crossed his arms over his chest and sassed, "I don't remember you asking me to be your boyfriend. Or are you talking about someone else other than me?"
My Oh my! He is really the perfect match for my brother,I love him for him already.
"Oh, I thought if we told each other our feeling, it makes us boyfriends. Do I need to ask?"
Julian looked at him dead panned. He turned to face me to help him out, but I shared the same look with Julian.
It was Lucie who saved his ass by answering his outrageous question with, "Of course you should, bro. You have to ask him before you make assumptions."
"So,do I have to make a grand proposal,buy a ring and all of that!?"
We burst into laughter,our previous expressions long forgotten. Oh God,my brother could be clueless.
"That's for marriage proposals,and it's unnecessary most of the time. Keep it simple and basic." Lucie answered him after we had cooled down a bit.
"Okay, thanks," my stupid brother answered and turned to his lover and knelt down on one knee.
"Will you be boyfriend,love?" He proposed,making the Oh so stoic Julian flustered.
"Yes...Yes I will Adrien."
Adrien jumped to his feet and hugged him close to his chest. Considering his towering height,Julian was covered in Adrien's embrace.
Julian then lifted his chin up from nuzzling in Adrien's chest and stared into my brother's eyes. They both met in the middle for a seering kiss,completely forgetting that they had company.
"Aww,they make such a beautiful couple." Luciano gushed,cooing at the exchange between my brother and his lover.
"They aren't cuter than us, though." I snorted,attracting attention from the lovebirds.
"Okay, let's go home." Julian announced.
We all got in the car. Julian offered to sit at the back with Lucie, claiming that he wanted to become friends with him while Adrien and I talked.
After a few hours,we stopped by my grand hotel in the capital and had lunch while catching up with everyone.
After our meals,we got back into the car but instead exchanged seats,I was driving with my baby in shotgun while Adrien and Julian sat at the back. We were headed to the private beach for some sort of picnic and much needed swim.
