I kiss Adrian on the cheek while attempting to pack my bag. It's sheerly impossible to pack the bag with Adrian pulling me away from the bag from behind, kissing me all over.
"Adrian! I can't pack if you keep pulling me away." I say struggling to pull his hands off of me.
"Then don't pack, just stay with me."
"As much as I want to, I also miss Teyana. Four months of no form of interacting with her and just being with you would drive me crazy."
"Crazy for me?" Adrian smirks raising an eyebrow.
"Adrian, real talk. Let me go!" I struggle to get out of his grasp.
"But I don't want you to leave! I'll miss you too much."
"It's just for a night, can you stop overreacting and let me go."
He finally lets go of me. He goes to sit by the bed and watches me pack. It's only appropriate to call it our bed since I also sleep in there. In fact, let's call it our room. It's our room because I sleep in here. But I'm just left to call it our house because I haven't been out of here in a while.
"If you ever had kids, what would you name them?" Adrian asks.
"That's an odd question. If it's a girl Isabella and if it's a boy well maybe Tyler. I don't know yet."
"Hmm, Isabella yes! Tyler, I'll have to think about that one."
"Why would you have to think about that? They're my kids not yours!"
He chuckles.
"Hey, I've been wanting to ask something. It's really bugging me and only you can answer it." I ask playing with my fingers.
"Yea, what's going on?" He says putting me on his lap.
"Now that James and I are no longer.. James and I. What does this make us? Because last time I checked, we were playing a game of friends with benefits." I ask.
He stares at me, like really stares at me. Now I'm nervous. I continue to play with my fingers and start to look down. I'm getting a little nervous as to why he's just staring at me and not answering. I get up from his laps.
"You know what, nevermind. I was just being witless. You don't need to answer that."
When I'm about to get up, Adrian holds my wrist and pulls me back onto his lap. Only this time, our faces are so close.
"Don't ever call yourself that. I'm sorry I didn't make it clear before, Sofia I love you. I'm willing to do anything for you to love me back. You're my girlfriend, okay. Unless you want to change that-" He says in a demanding voice.
"No, I like it just like this." I interrupt becoming teary.
He smashes his lips into mine before smirking. Passionately before quickly letting go. I frown, why did he let go so fast?
"Don't let me hold you back from going to see Teyana."
Realization strikes. I quickly get up and grab my bag, car keys, phone and my hoodie. I give Adrian a quick peck on the lips before heading for my car.
....
"I still can't believe you asked! But you did good, babes. I didn't need him using you." Teyana says hugging me tightly.
"I missed you so much." I say still holding onto Teya becoming teary.
"Me too." I hear her sniffle.
We stand like that for quite a bit, crying on each other's shoulders. She pulls away from me when I hear Noah call out my name.
"Auntie Sofie!" I hear a little squeaky voice call.
I turn to see Noah running towards me. I quickly bend down on one knee and open my arms to receive him. He rushes into my arms, I hold him tightly.
"Auntie, I can't breathe!" He yells.
"Sorry, dumpling. I just missed you so much. You've grown since I've been gone."
"Yes! So you can stop calling me dumpling now!"
"What do you want to be called?" I giggle.
"Sir."
I chuckle at his statement.
"Ok, sir. Have a good one."
"How do you have a good one?"
I laugh at him. I love this boy, hopefully I'll have kids of my own one day. But until then, he's my kid.
"Noah, get in the car in auntie Sofia. I'll be just there, I need to get daddy." Teyana says.
"What?" I ask in confusion.
"We're going to the park by Luner Lake. We're going to have some lunch." She says.
I smile amd grab hold of Noah's hand.
"C'mon dumpling. To the car we go."
"Auntie Sofia!"
"Oops, sorry." I giggle.
