THE MODEL & I

"North America, South America, Europe, Africa. Asia, Australia and Antarctica. I can name all the seven continents in our great big world."

They laugh once they got to the last square.

"Again, again!"

"Okay Sammy but then it's lunchtime"

"Okay!"

They hop for one last round, Skye holding Sam's hands for balance. Once they reach the last square Sam's giggles echoed around the garden. Skye picked him up, throwing the toddler over his back.

"What do you want to eat?"

"Chicken!"

He laughs softly as they head back inside the palace. They enter the kitchen and they find the chef dicing up some vegetables.

"Your Majesty, your Highness. How may we help?"

"I see you're preparing lunch, we'll have chicken and pasta and a banana and avocado smoothie"

"Yes sir. Plans on dessert?"

"A slice of cake will do, red velvet"

"We're on it"

They leave the kitchen and Skye heads up the stairs, to Sam's room.

"Are you sleeping Sammy?"

"I tired."

He nods and opens the door to the little Prince's room.

"I'll wake you up later okay?"

"Nooo you stay here"

He nods and places Sam inside the crib while he sat on the rocking chair. The chair was the same chair Star used when she fed Prince as a baby, it had a gold frame and the cushions were soft as if they were clouds. He watches Sam sleep soundly and he smiles, closing his eyes as he also drifted off to sleep.

"This is a classic townhouse, 3 bedrooms including the master bedroom. A kitchen, living room along with an attic and basement. It also has two bathrooms"

They walked around the empty house. The house was really lovely. Benedict nudges Xavier on the shoulder and whispers to him

"What do you think?"

"I feel like it's too small" Xavier said and Benedict nodded in agreement.

"Can we look at something else?" Benedict asked the realtor. She smiles and nodded.

"Of course"

They head outside and they all board the golf cart that the realtor drove around the neighbourhood with. In a few minutes, they stop by a large house.

"This is an oasis with a modern twist. It has seven rooms with their own bathrooms and toilet. The master bedroom has a living room and the basement has been turned into a movie theatre. There is a pool in the backyard and the roof has a lounge area"

The couple smiled as they made their way inside. The main living room had no walls, just glass from ceiling to the ground, the staircase was so beautiful, Benedict knew they were to do something naughty on those marble stairs.

"How much is the price?" Xavier asked.

"Well....£850 000 that is of course excluding the security fee"

Benedict whistled.

"That's a lot of money" he says and Xavier turned to him.

"Do you like it?"
