Angel Eyes

Part 21

I watch as my dad looks intensely at Violet. He stares with a blank look at her face.

Violet speaks up "hello Mr knight, my names Violet" she sticks her hand out.

Seconds later his face breaks out in a smile as he walks over to her.

He pulls her into a tight hug. He pulls away holding her shoulders "please call me blaze darling".

She looks over at me smiling, as I stare at her with adoration.

Dad turns my way and wriggles his eyebrows "she's gorgeous where did you find her ey?".

I jokingly glare at him pulling Violet into my side again.

Dads eyes catch Angelo and he sends a small smile "hello bug and who might you be?".

"I'm Angelo but momma calls me angel" Angelo shoots my dad one of his toothy grins. 

Violet speaks up seconds later "this is my son" she says with a wary look.

My mom jumps and squeal "oh my god he's adorable. Can I hold him?" She pleads with her eyes.

"Of course Sophia" she nods handing Angelo over to her.

Mom walks off talking to Angelo and showing him around.

Dads eyes soften looking at violet "he seems like a smart kid" he says.

Violets eyes light up "yeah he is. He's only 2 but sometimes acts like he's 5" she giggles.

"It was nice meeting you Violet. I hope to see more of you. Keep my son in check will ya?" Dad says shooting me a look.

I roll my eyes as Violet speaks up "don't worry I'll take care of him" she smiles at me.

"Right I better find my wife. See you guys later" is the last thing he says before he walks towards my mom.

Violet turns in my arms towards me smiling widely "well that went well. Do you think they like me?".

"Of course they do baby. Who wouldn't like you" I say kissing her nose.

She blushes and hides her face in my chest. I chuckle. I love that I'm the only one who made her blush.

I watch as a slow song plays and step away from violet sticking my hand out "can I have this dance Milady?" I ask.

She fakes a bow taking my hand "of course peasant" she laughs.

I lead her to the middle of the ball room wrapping one hand around her waist and holding her hand in mine.

We look into each other's eyes as we dance. I've been wanting to ask her to be mine for the past week now.

I think today after the ball is the best time to tell her. I'm so fucking nervous it's unreal. I just hope she agrees.
