Jayden stared at Kayla, confused but then realized what he was about to say. Mr Miles nodded. He knew his daughter very well and also knew exactly what Jayden was about to say. Only a fool wouldn't figure it out.
They all knew Jayden and Kayla weren't just friends. Not with the way he stared at her. However they didn't talk about it. They all had dinner and later that night, Mrs Miles gave Jayden a blanket to sleep in the living room and they all went to their rooms.
....
That night, Kayla felt restless.
Is he even comfortable over this? He's a prince and is used to luxury. Agh... She thought and just as she sat up, her door opened and Jayden walked in closing the door behind him. She quickly stood up hurrying to him." Jayden... What are you doing here?" She asked trying to whisper.
" Missing you" he said with a smile as he took her into his arms.
" What? Weren't you missing me too?" He asked.
" Of course I was" Kayla admitted.He withdrew from her but held her hips and he stared at her.
" When are you going to tell them about us?" He asked seriously and Kayla dropped her gaze sad.
" I'm sorry, I'm just scared" she said and looked at his face again.
He smiled
" It's fine. I'll stay here till you fall asleep" he said and Kayla nodded happily.Jayden carried her bridal style and placed her on the bed then laid down by her. They were both silent until Jayden spoke.
" Do you remember the last time you told me to leave, when I came in here through your window?" He asked and Kayla smiled. She couldn't believe how rude she was then, but he was the one forcing himself into her life in a not so gentle way. But now, here she was with him." I remember" she said and Jayden turned his face to look at her.
" I vowed that day Kayla. I vowed never to come in through the window again. And now, you see? I came in through the door" He said proudly and Kayla's smile only widened.She moved into his arms on the bed and hid her face in his chest while Jayden chuckled. They talked a little and Kayla soon fell asleep on him. Jayden didn't sleep all through the night. He kept watching her and giving her kisses every now and then.
When the sun was about coming out and he knew her parents would be up soon, he left her and went back to the living room to pretend like he's been there all along.
.......
Kayla woke up late. When she walked out of her room into the living room, she saw her dad and Jayden talking like they were very good friends, while her grandmother was knitting something. When they saw her, they all smiled wishing her a good morning.
Kayla felt something was strange. Not just because Jayden and her dad were discussing but even the way they smiled at her. She went into the kitchen and her mom had also done the same thing. She decided to ignore it and joined her mom in cooking.
Not long after, Jayden walked into the kitchen
" May I come in?" He asked even though he was already in. Both Kayla and her mom looked at him. Mrs Miles smiled at him.
" Of course" she said cheerfully and he walked further into the kitchen while Kayla just stood confused.Mrs Miles carried a tray of food in her hands then turned to Kayla
" Bring the rest of the food when you're coming honey and hurry up" she said then walked out of the kitchen leaving them.Kayla turned her gaze to Jayden.
" Why is everyone acting unusual this morning?" She asked but with a little surprised and confused smile on her face. Jayden moved to her and trapped her between himself, his hands and the counter that was behind her and he smiled" What are you doing Jayden? They might come here" Kayla said trying to push him away.
" No need for that, sleeping beauty. They already know" he said casually. Kayla's eyes immediately went wide open.
" They surrounded me early this morning, asking me to tell them the truth. They never once believed you yesterday. So I told them" he explained." And.....?" Kayla asked curiously causing Jayden to smile widely.
" What do you think? They don't have a problem with us dating. Although your grandma did some talking. And don't worry they're not mad at you for not telling them. I told them you were scared" He explained more.Kayla wanted to know what Jayden and her dad were talking about when she saw them so he told her.
He had told her father that he was 24 years old and he wanted to be a surgeon. He didn't live in this city. His parents were in another country because he knew they couldn't meet his parents because of how young his parents looked. He told them that his parents already approved. He also promised to love and take care of Kayla.
Her father was a little reluctant. Jayden understood but they gave their consent anyway. Better they knew than have their daughter secretly dating. Kayla was happy. They later joined her family for breakfast and she apologized for not telling them and they all understood.
* * * * *
It was the day before Christmas. All their friends and family were all coming over. Surprisingly, Jayden's parents came as well dressed like normal people but of course dressed very expensively. They tried making themselves look older and it worked a little.
Both Jayden and Kayla were shocked to see them but it was a good thing. Both the parents should meet, it would make the relationship a lot stronger.
Robin, Martin and Chloe came as well and Kayla's family welcomed them. It was still obvious how young Jayden's parents were but they just felt it was in their gene to look so good. The fact that all Jayden's family and friends were all good looking intrigued them but yet, they saw the advantage in it. It meant their grand children would also be very good looking.
...
That night, they all came out of the house. The Miles house was not a big house but at least, it was manageable. They arranged chairs outside the house and they all sat.
Immediately the time clocked 12:00am. Fireworks were shot into the sky. They exploded plastering the sky with beautiful colours.
They all stood watching the fireworks like one big, beautiful, happy family. Jayden interlocked fingers with Kayla as they stared into the sky. It was a perfect day.
" Merry Christmas Kayla" Jayden whispered to Kayla and she looked at him. He was staring at her with a smile and this was the biggest smile she had ever seen on him.
" Merry Christmas" she replied with a smile as well.
" I love you" he told her.
" I love you too Jayden" she said back.Jayden leaned down and kissed her. Then they stared at each other smiling. Everything felt right, everything was perfect. Then they both looked back up at the fireworks in the sky.
