Chapter 17 - Elijah

Its Christmas week.

Our holidays have begun. Uncle called us in between to get our updates we told him about a friend crashing at our place. He didn't ask much he just said it's our choice, it's our home anyways and he'll be not coming back anytime soon as he has other commitments. He was never bothered about what we do. Mom and dad had left us with enough money but we are grateful for him to step up as our guardian otherwise we would have been separated.

I hear Aiden mumbling something. Sam is still asleep between us. Aiden has his arm around her while his head rests on her chest. She is holding his head protectively.

The more I look at them I realise how much I love them and how much they both mean to me.

Its our kitten's birthday tomorrow. We'll make sure it is the best birthday she has ever had. She had told us she have not celebrated her birthday after her mom died because her dad always told her that she is the worst thing happened to him. We made sure that our baby doesn't think like that anymore.

I get out of the bed and start making us some breakfast.

I open the fridge and there are eggs and bacon, okay that will do. After a while I see both of them coming towards the kitchen holding hands still sleepy.

"Good morning Children. Your breakfast is ready get yourself seated."

Aiden mumbles something to which Sam giggles and says , "Okay Daddy."

FUCK.

Both of us snap our neck towards her. She is unaware of what just happened as she sips on her coffee and looks at her plate. Feeling the silence she looks up at us confused.
"What happend?"

I gulp. "Nothing kitten. Eat."

I try to adjust my fucking boner before I make her feel uncomfortable and slid next to her keeping a hand over her thigh I gently squeeze it. She gasps but then continues eating. Its peaceful. A little while later I feel her hand over mine, I look up at her to see her give me one of her precious smile.

God this woman is going to kill me.

"Aid, where is Sam?"

"She is sleeping. Let's just get everything ready before we wake her up. What are those idiots doing!?"

"Macy is decorating the cake, James & Lucas are I don't know blowing balloons. Its about to hit 12 I'll go wake her up. Arrange everything quickly and shut the lights off"

"Got it bro. I am so excited!"
"Me too."

I quietly go to our room. Our kitten is sleeping peacefully cuddling the pillows. She is so precious.

"Kitten, wake up." I gently wake her running my fingers through her hair.

" 5 more mins Eli pleasee."

"Wakeup sweetheart, there is something important."

She gets up quickly my poor baby still gets scared easily. "No nothing dangerous. Don't worry. Come on."

"What is it Eli?"

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAMMM!!!" Everyone screams together. I hold her as she flinches from the sudden loud sound. She is doing her best with the flinches, they have reduced though but it still hurts. Once she understands what is happening she starts crying. I hold her tight to me. Aiden comes behind and hugs her as well

"Happy Birthday Baby. We love you."

She looks at us smiling. "Thankyou. I love you Eli, I love you Aid. I love you both so much."

Aid and I go still. She said she loves me right? Was I dreaming?

"Say that again baby, please" Aid says.

"I love you. I love you both so much." She repeats.

Jesus Christ. Our angel loves us.

"We love you baby, we love you so fucking much." Aid mumbles holding her tight.

I feel so happy as I look into her eyes knowing that this precious women is ours now. She loves us.

Lucas clears his throat "If you lovebirds are done I wanna wish my Sammy boo too!"

Sam chuckles at him as we loosen our hold on her. Lucas pulls her into a tight hug wishing her a happy birthday followed by Macy & James. We have a little celebration. It gets late and so Lucas crashes on the couch while James & Macy take the guest room. We three head to ours.

Once in our room. Aiden locks the door. I stand in front of Sam gently holding her hands as I ask her something we have been waiting for so long.

"Can we kiss you kitten?"

What are you Extrovert/Introvert/Ambivert?🤌🏻

I am an Ambivert. I am an extrovert if I am comfortable with my environment so it mainly depends on the people around me. I can switch between these so fast depending on the people.
