LOSING YOU - VEGASPETE [ ManxMan)]

Chapter 10

VEGAS POV

Seeing Pete taking care of Venice makes my heart melt. He doesn't know anything about Venice yet, but by the way, he treated him, I can see that he really cares about Venice.

I'm just sitting in the corner of the room, staring at Pete taking care of Venice.

He feeds him, changed his nappies, and even puts him to sleep.

Venice has mild pneumonia, and he needs to stay in the hospital for a few days, till he gets better.

The doctor says that they need to run more tests for him, just to make sure that he doesn't have any problems inside his body.

"Are you planning on killing your own son?" Pete sat beside me and lean on the sofa.

He looks so tired.

I didn't answer him but I pulled him and put his head on my lap so he can rest.

I gently caressed his hair and massage his scalp from time to time.

"Pete, Venice is just my brother that I adopted," I told him

He looked at me in disbelief.

"If you are thinking he is my son with a woman, nope that's not gonna happen in my whole life."

"I'm sorry Vegas I didn't know. Sorry for hiding these past few days" he apologized then held my hands and hold them tight.

"It's my fault though, 'cause I didn't tell you in the first place, that this is the condition for wanting to be with you," I admitted

"You know, my dream before is to build a happy family. Having one son or a daughter, my wife and I are living in a simple house next to the sea," he said seriously, not sparing a glance at me.

I'm gonna lie if I say that I'm not hurt when I heard the word wife.

I swallowed hard the lump in my throat that prevents me to talk.

"But since I came here and worked everything has changed. I don't want to have a family anymore, what if I die one day, who gonna look after them? My work is not that easy, my life is on the line and I am not sure if I'm gonna survive or not. I'm afraid of living them behind" he continued with a sad face.

We stayed like that and didn't say anything for a while.

"How about you Vegas?" he looked at me then changed his position, now he was sitting next to me while looking at me.

"Me, before you came. My life is a mess. My father ruled my world. I'm just like a puppet that follows every move of my father. I don't have any dreams, I don't know what love feels like. I don't know how it feels when someone cares for you. Until you came." then I pulled him into a hug because I'm starting to have a teary eye while telling him what kind of life I had before.

"Vegas, I want to try it" he murmured on my neck

"What do you mean?" I pushed him and held his face.

"To be your boyfriend," he said with glistening eyes then he held my face too.

"Are serious?" I asked him in disbelief

"Yes, I'm already sure about my feelings for you." now I'm smiling from ear to ear because of his confession.

I gave him butterfly kisses all over his face and kissed him passionately on his lips.

"Thank you, Pete, I thought I am going to lose you again," I mumble and kiss him one more time.

"Nah, I can promise you that you don't have to be afraid of losing me anytime soon because you are stuck with me now and maybe forever," he said seriously.

"Is that the way how you say I love you?" I teased him and pulled him into a tight hug again.

"I think so," I heard him say

"I love you too Pete"

"I know," he murmured again

"How about Venice are you okay with him?" now I feel so uneasy again after asking him that question.

"Yeah, as long as his Daddy is okay with it too," he answered and snuggle into my chest this time.

Now, the happiness inside me is overwhelming.

I've never been this happy in my whole life, it's like a dream.

I hope this happiness will last until the day I die.

"Thank you, Pete, thank you so much for coming into my life," I said once more.

"Me too, you changed me a lot Vegas. You changed the whole me, my perception in life and everything."

"Now I'm so happy that I have already a son and a wife," I said cheekily

"Wife? Who is your fucking wife?" he pushed me and look at me angrily.

"The one I'm looking at right now," I said smiling.

"What the fuck Vegas wife, seriously?" he complained looking so mad at me.

"Yeah why not, you act like one though," I teased him again

"If you say that one more time, I'm topping you Vegas, and let us see I'm gonna call you a wife too," now he is sulking.

"But I'm the top here, everyone will agree to that, and you are my bottom wifey. My cutie wife,"

Why I'm being this so cheesy now?

Is this what they called love is?
