His head lay on my thighs as I stroke his hair fondly. It's so soft and I've shamelessly sniffed a few times. It smells so good.
It's been a while since my embarrassing orgasm. I still can't believe that happened "Tell me about your family", he suddenly asks.
What?
"What? Why do you want to know about my family?"
He shrugs, "I'm just curious"
"Oh, OK. Well, I'm an only child. My mom is a lawyer. She's 40 or 41"
"You're 20", he says. Yeah Valarie is young, boo hoo.
"Yeah, she had me early. I'll be 21 soon though"
"When's your birthday?"
"December 12th, why?" I raise an eyebrow though he can't see.
"No reason. Go on"
"My dad..." I trail off. My dad was an estate agent when he left. Is he still one now?
It's been more than a week since I last saw him. When he denied my existence.
"Victoria", his voice pulls me from my thoughts.
"You don't have to tell me", he adds.
"No, it's fine. I want to", I let a breathe before saying, "my dad was the man you saw that day when we stopped for ice cream the other day"
He tries to pulls his head from my laps to look at him but I stop him, "don't move. I like your hair"
He relaxes back as I continue my sob story,
"He was an estate agent when he left the family when I was nine. In conclusion, he officially denied my existence"
I'm not going to cry over him anymore. I've lived 12 years without him, I'm fine.
Lucas doesn't say anything and I appreciate that more than he can imagine.
I tug at his hair tight, maybe a little too tight.
"Ow. What did you do that for?"
I roll my eyes at his slightly whiney voice. He's so cute sometimes.
"Tell me about your family", I tell him.
"You know about my family"
"No, not really. Come on"
I hit his shoulder. He's so toned. Holy Spirit, give me strength before I jump him.
"Fine. I have 7 siblings. Kyle, Aya, Dante, Mark, Minnie, Toby and my twin sister Thea"
Twin Sister. This is the first time he's acknowledged her as his twin sister to me.
"She's my best friend", he adds and I instantly know he's about Thea.
"I would love to meet her one day", I tell him.
He doesn't say anything for a while. Did I overstep? Maybe I shouldn't have said anything.
"Will you visit the hospital with me to see her one of these days? If it's not too much trouble", he adds his last statement clarifying.
"Of course not, I would love to. Anytime"
"Thanks", he says softly.
I squeeze his hair a little reassuringly.
I'm so proud of him. I still don't know how Thea ended up in coma but that doesn't matter. I admire his strength.
"What does your mother do?" I ask changing the subject. I don't want him to feel too uncomfortable.
"She's an housewife",
