Benlyam had his arm securely wrapped around my shoulders as we started our walk back to the house. Every so often a cold breeze would blow and I’d dig the side of my face closer to Benylam.
I was still letting everything sink into me, understanding, and processing what just happened. My father, Milan, was very nice, I didn’t have a problem with him. Fatherly and warm. Mara was the problem.
What was her problem, seriously? I mean, I guess I understand if you weren’t ready for a child and maybe the best option would be to give it away to someone who would care. But the thing is, she left me in the worst possible hands, and she didn’t sound sorry about it. She even knew he was fucking me, it didn’t matter if it was stated it was consensual or not, it wasn’t, a man that was sixteen years older than her was taking advantage of her.
… She didn’t care…
“Flower?” Benlyam called me lightly.
“Yeah?” I whispered.
“How are you feeling? Do you want to talk about everything?” he asked softly and I shook my head before stopping. He stopped as well, slightly concerned. I turned my body to him and wrapped my arms around his neck, hugging him into me.
He didn’t waste a second grabbing my waist and holding me against him. I breathed out and closed my eyes as I shoved my face in his neck. He ran his hands down to the back of my thighs, scooping me up. I let myself sink into him as my hands ran through his hair.
“I’m proud of you, Violet,” he kissed my cheek and I looked up at him.
“Really?” I asked but it came out so quietly, it felt like I mouthed it.
He nodded. “Yes, Violet. I mean it, you amaze me, honey.” He pressed a soft kiss to my lips.
I kissed his neck and I rested my head again.
“I miss our babies,” I told him and I felt him chuckle as he played with the ends of my hair.
“We were only gone for an hour.”
“So? I miss you when you go away for only an hour,” I grumbled.
“That’s just because I’m so irresistible, Flower,” he smirked and tried to kiss me but I moved my head. “Just can’t get enough of me.”
I rolled my eyes and pulled back but he grabbed me.
“Put me down,” I deadpanned and Benlyam smirked at me.
“What if I don’t?” He questioned and I unhooked my legs from his waist but he just held me tighter. I frowned.
“Bee,” I groaned and tried to wiggle my way out but he wasn’t letting go of me.
“You know, Flower,” he leaned into my ear, “the more you rub against me, the-”
I gasped at him. “No! Shush! Don’t say that in public!” I scolded him and his eyes twinkled.
“What are you going to do about it, honey?” he teased and I narrowed my eyes at him, biting my lips to keep in a smile.
I pulled back on more time, but I didn’t get far. “This only excites me,” he leaned in and kissed me and I melted into it but quickly pulled away.
I shoved my face into his shoulder as he laughed.
“You’re not funny.”
“Breaking my heart there, Flower,” he chuckled.
We got closer to our house and I got down from Benlyam, walking into the living room with him to immediately be greeted with the sight of our pups. I beamed and Hanah and Scott gave them over to me before they left on Benlyam’s wishes.
I brought them up to their nursery and fed them, played with them before it was time for dinner. Scott and Zachary ate with us and then we decided to watch a movie. I was curled up to Benlyam with Lana in my arms who was asleep, Layton was in Scott’s.
“Viv?” Zachary tested and I cringed, looking over at him.
“Yeah?”
“Don’t call her that,” Benlyam grumbled.
“Alright, alright, just thinking,” Zachary raised his hands in mock surrender before turning back to the movie.
“Vi?” Scott asked, “Nah, Hannah already calls you that.” Scott shook his head as he looked back down at Layton.
“Could just call her by her name, like I said,” Benlyam growled out and I glared at him.
“Stop, you’re gonna wake them!” He smiled down at me and whispered an apology.
Zachary looked back at me, glancing over my body while thinking. “You know, Violet, you’re always wearing socks around the house. Do you keep them on during sex? You know, usually, the guy wears them and some girls don’t like th-”
“Shut the fuck up, Zach,” Benlyam growled out but I laughed.
I don’t find a lot of sexual jokes funny, and never really laughed at them but, I don’t know, I found this one amusing. Benlyam looked at me with an eyebrow raised, not expecting my reaction.
I smiled at Zachary, “No, I don’t,” I joked and Benlyam pulled me tighter against him.
“Zach, you don’t talk about sex in front of the puppers,” Scott corrected.
“Well, maybe if I was allowed to hold them,” he rolled his eyes.
That still wasn’t going to happen, his first impression wasn’t too good with me and he still made some comments about their father and mom.
The movie ended and we all went to bed.
I was woken from being moved, specifically Benlyam removing his arms from me. I frowned and hazily pulled him back. I felt him carefully rub my back before gently removing himself from me.
