Skylar's POV

"It's a beautiful place" I looked around the small town. Its so small most of us haven't even heard of it, I smiled as we passed few houses and a cafe and some small random shops, it looks like the town where you'll find cowboys with their shinny horses but when you imagine a city with cowboys you'll have picture of a deserted old land but this place is full of trees and green bushes, shrubs this place is so dreamy, If I was a writer I would have written a fantasy novel about this place but I'm not so leave it.

"The place where I'm am taking you is heaven to me it's the most important part of my life, you know Sky..." he kept his hand on my thigh caressing my skin "A puzzle is useless when its missing a peice of it and I think I would be useless without this place" he parked the car in front of a small beautiful cottage, it had so many beautiful plants, trees and creepers even the entrance door was covered with creepers and the rose plants catched my eyes. It is so big and beautiful and those small white windows and stained glass door are complimenting it "Come" he holded my hand and we walked in through the entrance door.

"Pete" Zach called and a man appeared "you can leave for few minutes" he said to the man and patted on his shoulder. Pete looks like he's in forties because of his chubby body and wrinkled face but he has a small smile on his face he nodded and left us

As I entered the house, my eyes widened because of the beautiful interior of the house, it's way better than the exterior "So Sky welcome to my grandparent's house"

"Zach I can't even explain how beautiful this place is" I said and looked around

The furniture is not mordern, it's classic and it gives you the 80s vibes. The hall has a small couch with foral covers and a round coffee table and I forgot to add the old antenna television. The house is small but has everything it feels like home, the home everyone needs. It's fully covered
in wooden furniture, a bookshelf at the extreme coner catched my eyes, I walked towards it and smiled looking at its brown vintage polish it was full of law books, yes really it had books which were either related to Crimes or Rights or Constitution, I ran my hands through every book and took out one of the books "your grandpa loved Sherlock Holmes" I flipped pages these books are really old, the pages are yellow and the sides are ripped and they smell like tea or coffee

"He loved music too" Zach walked into a small room near the living room and I followed him. As soon as I entered the room I was again speechless, the wall was full of framed records and a gramophone on a shelf with again full of records "I love these rocking chair" Zach sat on one of the chair he closed his eyes and rocked on it "Grandma used to sing poems and songs for me here and when she got tired or bored grandpa used to play her favorite song and they used dance here in this room" he explained and a small smile tugged on our lips, I can imagine toddler Zach sitting on the chair while his grandparents danced happily the thought is so peaceful, it feels like a moment you want to capture and keep it forever.

"Grandpa was a lawyer and Grandma was a housewife" he started again while I joined him on the other rocking chair "They loved each other so much, Grandpa always loved eating her cookies and every morning he used to kiss her and wish her a good day ahead" I stared at him while he told me about his grandparents "Sky they lived and laughed together soo happily and he loved her till the end" he closed his eyes "do you remember The Notebook movie ?"

"I do"

"My grandparents were like Noah and Allie and when I was 8 Grandma suddenly died due to natural causes and after 2 days of her death grandpa got a sudden heart attack and died. It was a big loss for my family everyone blamed the circumstances but I think he died because he felt incomplete without her even 2 days without her were too much for him"

"Ya true love it never comes or goes, it stays inside you forever"

"They loved paintings too" he stood up and took my hand into his. We walked towards another room but it was upstairs the stairs were old and wooden but they didn't creaked that means they were cared properly "look" we walked into the another room, it had some paintings on the walls, some blank canvases laying on the floor and old paints in a tin box and paintbrushes with paint still stick in their bristles

"I love this one" I walked closer towards the painting of an old couple its speaks so much about love, though its a still image

"Ya Grandpa painted it and grandma added the details he framed it in the center" I smiled and we both talked about the paintings and the memories and the beautiful meaning behind them. After an hour we walked out towards the living room

"This place made my day and I guess Pete takes a lot of care of this place"

"He does, but I brought you here because I know that we share the love my grandparents shared when they were young, I want to live and die with you and after we die I want to meet you again in our after life because one life is not enough to love you Sky" he cupped my cheeks and kissed me while my hands rested on his chest

"You know I fall in love with you every second I look at you" I said to him "I can't Express my love for you in words all I can do is to show you tell me how can I show my love for you?"

"Ummm....all you can do is to stay with me forever"

"I will I promise" I kissed his palm while his hand was still cupping my cheek

***

"Mom was a British woman but she lived in America her whole life" he said and his hand is resting on my thigh. We're driving back to Columbus and I just asked him about his mom, I would have loved to meet her if she was alive but fuck cancer for taking her life away from everyone "mom always tried teaching me new things like Poetry, painting, singing or swimming or dancing she wanted me to excel in everything and she was so good at it that I didn't felt any pressure from her side and dad was like he never ever gave me money for anything unnecessary though we were rich"

"Why ?" I frowned

"Because he thought if he would pamper me with money since the age of 8 or 9 I would never understand it's importance I would just waste it and it's true, I hate spending money on useless things that's why I am living in a penthouse instead of a mansion and though it doesn't look like but I repeat my clothes a lot and if I don't need anything I donate it to homeless or shelter" a smile tugged on my face he's actually different from what I thought, I just want to know him more and more "don't mind but I won't even let Katie use money like a waste, I would give her monthly allowance and if she needs more money she have to work hard for it"

"Ya I agree with that" I nodded

"And she'll not date anyone till she's 30, leave dating I'll choose her boyfriend I'll see if he sets my standards he can have her" He said in deep serious tone

"Zach please she's 3" I scrunched my nose "and about dating I don't think she'll date anyone till 30" I nodded though I know she'll be like me, I mean kinda independent not pregnant and depressed

"Ya we'll see" he rolled his eyes "what if she comes out as a lesbian or bisexual in future ?" He asked himself

"Ya that's a good question" I pressed my lips together trying not to laugh, Zach is a perfect definition of an over protective dad, I wish my dad was like that, a caring overprotective dad is better than a violent one.

"I think then I'll choose her girlfriend"

"Done you're going choose her boyfriend or girlfriend" I nodded still trying not to laugh
