His little Butterfly

At this point I just wanted to sleep we had been flying for 8 hours straight and had landed at the Cape Town International Airport about 50 minutes ago, I haven't had time to put my bags in the hotel room, I haven't had a shower and hadn't had a proper meal since last night and now this fucking dinner it was going to be then end of me. My father had been on my case since this morning going on and on about how important these dinners are but all i couls think of was Avery. Yet I still wasn't ready to see how beautiful she had become, from my childhood best friend to a mear stranger I barely recognised. But one thing was for sure she was beautiful her sleek blue dress made he body look like a fucking temple. As I stood up from the table to great her and Mr. Rocco i felt her eyes on me, watching my every move, but when met her gaze for a second before she pulled away, I felt comfort, the same comforting eyes I still remember from childhood, comforting me as I cried on her shoulder, there right before me was the same soul that stood beside me at my mother's funeral as i cried, but reality snaped me back from my nostalgia as Mr.Rocco ask how business was going but i knew better and let my father awnser that. These dinners were simply to maintain peace between the families, nothing more and they were boring as fuck. Avery sat next to me but we hadn't spoken a word but yet as she sat there I felt safe like no time had passed, as I turned my head to face her I met her already staring gaze. Our eyes held and once again I noticed how perfect she was her round lips, her chest, her eyes, everything...
Mrs. Rocco called my name breaking our gaze as I turned my head towards her. Avery looked exactly like her mom. Mrs. Rocco and I were close since she and my mother had been good friends, she was like a second mom. After my mom passed they I started seeing less and less of the Rocco's but Mrs. Rocco always made sure I was okay and that she was always there for me whenever I needed her. After our little catchup session, the dinner drew to a close. Thank fuck I just needed to get to the hotel room and take a long needed shower. I always take long showers when i need to clear my head and right now I needed to do exactly that.

Ps: sorry if I have made spelling mistakes 🫶🏼🦋🌻
