Back to you in every lifetime (Vegaspete Ff)

Chapter 46

Warning: fluff and cuddles

Vegas's POV

I am lying in my favourite spot in the forest, my head resting on Asa's lap and his fingers are entangled in my hair.

The atmosphere is peaceful except Jack's occassional neighing sounds.

The moon is high up in the sky, bathing the Earth in its moonlight.

The moonlight is hitting the pond in the middle of the field beautifully making it look a mine of diamonds.

The flower blossoms are still not present on the tree above us but still gives us shade and a very peaceful feeling at heart, Asa's back is resting against the tree and he looks lost in his thoughts.

He has been like this all evening! And honestly I am kind of pissed.

What is more important to him than me!?
Whatever it is it should seize to exist.

Asa's another hand is lightly patting my chest and I catch that hand's wrist in my hold.

I immediately notice how thin he has gotten.

'I need to feed him more' I mentally note for later.

And give his hand a yank, not hard enough to hurt but enough to get his attention.

It works.

Asa looks at me shocked, like he had forgotten about my existence moments before.

Yeah whatever Asa is thinking about definitely needs to be wiped away from the face of Earth.

"What are you thinking about love?" I ask nuzzling closer to his stomach, the only relatively fleshy part on his body.

"Nothing" Asa mumbles but I am not at all convinced by his half-hearted mumble.

I pull away from his tummy and glare up at him.

"Asa don't lie to me" I say and watch Asa's head droop in guilt and shame at getting caught.

I place my palm under his chin and forcefully make him look into my eyes.

"What is it baby?" I whisper leaning closer to him and see his lower lip wobble.

I press a kiss to his lower lip.

"Come on darling say something" I whisper against his lips.

"Everyone in the castle is talking about how you went to princess Miranda's room after she got out of bath and you made everyone else leave the room" Asa explains and my eyes widen.

"No" I say, lacking of any other better words to say, to explain myself to Asa.

"You didn't go to her room?" Asa asks his eyes looking up at me hopefully.

I don't have any answer to THAT.

After sometime when I don't say anything Asa speaks up again.

"You did" he states and slumps back against the tree behind him.

Asa's head is hung low so I can't really see his expression but his posture is enough to tell me that he is upset.

And I feel my heart break a little at that knowledge.

I crawl upto Asa's small, scrunched up form and slowly run my hand through his hair.
