Alyssha's POV

"How about your parents? What do they do?" James, Oliver's father asks with a little smile but I get tense for some reason.

Usually I can talk about this freely but for some reason I feel a little uncomfortable right now to answer the question. I am feeling intimidated maybe because there are so many famous people here or maybe because of the man who looks like me, or may be because of the unwanted attention, I don't know.

I feel a squeeze on my hand and I turn to my right to look at Damian who gives me a comforting smile.

"Umm. I don't have parents." I say quietly but confidently. Damian is still holding my hand and rubs it in a circular motion which is enough to keep me calm.

"Ohh. I am sorry. What happened to them?" He asks again but this time with no expression on his face. Weird!!!

"No. Nothing happened. I mean I don't know who they are. I was just left outside the orphan house when I was two so I don't know their names or any other information." I explain while looking at him but his body stiffens and he looks away from me. I look around and two women are looking at me with disgust and I roll my eyes at them. While the rest are looking at me with pity and sympathy and I really hate that look.

"Have you tried to find them?" Diana, his wife, asks me this time and her face holds a really kind and charming smile.

"Yes but it's kind of difficult as I have no information except my name and birthdate." I try to be as casual as possible while shrugging my shoulder like it's not a big deal. Well, it is very important for me to find my parents but they don't need to know that.

I feel a pair of eyes on me so I look around to find the person and Emelia, their family friend as Dean introduced, is looking at me intently.

I also couldn't avert my eyes away from her. My heart starts beating faster when I find her looking at me and I feel a weird pull towards her just like how I feel with James. I feel like my heart wants to hug her but it doesn't make sense to my mind.

After taking her time to study me, she and James look at each other like they are having a silent conversation. She keeps looking between me and James, probably comparing the similarities between us.

Yeah woman, trust me. Even I am going crazy over that fact.

But then she suddenly looks at me with wide surprised eyes and she gives me a very longing look. Now that's really weird. Ohh wait does she also feel the same as me?

This whole dinner is getting really weird and uncomfortable. I can't wait till it's over so I can change into my hoodie and fall in a peaceful embrace of my loving boyfriend.

"But you have us now baby sis." Dean's voice takes me out of the train of my thoughts. I look at him but he is looking, or more like glaring at his dad and then looks back at me with a kind smile which brings a smile on my face.

"Of course big bro. I am as happy as ever to have you and Oliver as brothers."

"And you always will have us." Oliver says and kisses on the side of my head in front of so many people which makes me blush.

Once again James looks between three of us with wide eyes and clenches his jaw. I wonder if he doesn't like my relationship with his sons. I hope not because Oliver has been a very important part of my life and I will be damned to lose him.
