A Marriage Contract •Kim x Macau•

chapter 22

Macau's pov

It's been a few weeks since Kim and I started dating and it was going well , I was happy about it , I put on some clothes and got out of my room 

"Macau , let's go get some groceries , there's nothing much left"

"Yeah"

I went to the car and got inside , I put on the seatbelt and drove to the market , we got out , going inside , I saw Kim being distracted , I stopped

"What is distracting you?"

He looked at me

"I saw your brother"

Vegas? I stayed silent , I felt a hand rested on my shoulder , I turned around and saw Vegas

"Phi , you're here too?"

"Pete told me to get things for dinner , you want to come home tonight for dinner?""

I looked at Kim

"That's your choice , not mine"

I pursed my lips , I know that he doesn't like Kim nor does he , then there's me and Pete , who will be exhausted to hear them arguing

"It's not that I don't want to come but I know you don't like Kim nor does he like you , if you both get along and not fight , then sure"

Vegas was silent

"Come on Phi , it's not that hard to just let him come with us , he's not that bad"

"I-"

"Shut it"

I know what Kim was gonna say , that he wouldn't come with me because of my brother , I don't care , I want him along the way

"Fine"

I smiled

"Then I'll see you at 7?"

"Fine by me"

I could see a glimpse of happiness in Vegas's eyes for a moment , I know I haven't been calling him nor visiting them , but I also know that this contract is ending tomorrow..I don't think Kim had noticed it..Vegas went away , I put some vegetables on the cart and more things that he's gonna need , I mean , I'm leaving tomorrow , I felt a hand rested on my shoulder

"What's on your mind?"

"Nothing , I just hope you and Vegas wouldn't argue"

"We won't , I promise , I'll not argue with him"

I nodded , after a while , we went back

"Macau"

I yelped when I was suddenly grabbed by my collar from behind

"What're you doing Kim? That hurt like hell!"

No because what went through his mind by doing that!? Why was he staring at me so intensely like that?

"Kim?.."

"What's the problem?"

"What do you mean?"

"Clearly something has been bothering you since morning"

He noticed? I pursed my lips

"Nothing , I'm just concern about you and Veg-"

"No , it's not that , don't lie Macau , I know you well"

I don't know why but I was sweating , feeling frustrated , I couldn't look at him in the eyes , was I being dramatic because of a stupid contract?

"Is it because of the contract?"

I stayed silent

"I guess that's a yes"

He ruffle my hair

"Don't be sad , we will still hang out"

"I'm more concern about Vegas finding us out , I know how he is , he is very strict and I know he won't agree"

"How can you be so sure? Did you read his mind? Did he tell you that?"

I shake my head

"Then why're you so sure? You'll never know until you try"

He cupped my cheeks , he's so soft towards me , I never knew he had 2 sides of him , one being a rude bitch while the other one is being soft to his partner and of course I am his partner

"I am going to take a nap"

I said as I was going to my room but Kim grabbed me

"Go to my room , I don't think I can nap with you , I have things to do"

"Like?"

"I need to go talk to Kinn , so don't worry , I will be back soon"

I nodded

"Don't come late"

He nodded , his room? He's so..attractive..I chuckle to myself , I went to his room and took a nap , I was exhausted

_______________________

I woke up when I was freezing , I heard footsteps , I looked up and saw Kim , he was already dressed

"You're awake , damn , you're such a lazy ass , you've been sleeping for exactly 5 hours and 34 minutes , get dressed"

I sat up and yawn , I'm still tired , I stood up and took a shower , shit , I forgot my clothes in my room , I wrapped the towel around my waist and got out

"Stop staring at my body"

"Can't help it"

Sometimes he acts like a fucking pervert , wonder how many personalities he got , I went to my room and change into some clothes

"Let's go?"

"Yeah"

We went to the car , as always , Kim drove , we arrived after a while , it was almost 7 pm , I opened the gate , I should probably tell Vegas to secure our home better , but someone breaking in will be in their worst nightmare , walking inside the front yard , Kim followed me from behind , his hair was tied , I saw Pete outside , they placed a table outside , it was pretty big , the roof covered the table , our house is not that big nor that small , but just outside , there were a large space

Which Pete decided that we could place the table outside and eat whenever we wanted  , the best part is , we wouldn't get wet if it rains , Pete didn't seemed to noticed us , he was placing the plates , I guess Vegas was cooking inside , Pete's back was turned , I jumped on Pete

"Pete!"

"Macau! You scared me"

I laughed at him , usually I don't do that , Pete used to be a bodyguard and his reflexxes were pretty much fast and that was somehow scary to think of it , he could easily shoved me down

"Kim , you also came..it's a bit weird to call you Kim"

I mean , it would be weird for me also to call an old boss by their name

"It's alright , you're no longer our bodyguard"

I went inside to greet Vegas , I went to the kitchen and as expected , I saw Vegas cooking

"Phi!"

He turned around and smiled seeing me

"What happened to your hand?"

I couldn't help but noticed a bandage on his left hand

"I just..cut my hand.."

"Clumsy bitch"

"Your behaviour is getting worse asshole"

"So is yours"

I smiled , Vegas doesn't really mind ny language , I grew up around people with vulgar language

"You can go sit with Pete while I bring this outside"

I nodded and went outside , we were having hotpot , I wonder how Vegas cut his hand , he's not that clumsy but oh , sometimes these things happens whenever someone cooks
