"Now don't go running off, ok?" I told him as we arrived at bagged claim. "And stay by me," I picked up his hand as I went to get a cart for our suitcases.
"Ok," I dropped his hand as I felt my phone vibrating in my pocket.
D-You off the plane yet?
N-Just getting our bags
I put my phone back into my pocket and panicked when I didn't see Micaiah.
"Micaiah," I called as I looked around.
"I'm down here," He answer. He was sat on the cart, playing on my iPod. I sighed in relief and began walking toward the bags. We spotted our bags in around 5 minutes and Micaiah moved so I could put our bags on the cart.
"You wanna sit on top?" I asked him.
"Yer!" I smiled happily as I sat him on top of our suitcases and told him to hold on. Since Micaiah was sat on the suitcases, I couldn't go as fast as I wanted, but safety comes first. I pushed the cart through the doors and immediately saw Drake. He ran up to me and lifted me up in a hug and I wrapped my legs around his waist, crying into his neck. At this point, I just wanted him to hold me and comfort me forever, but we were stood in the middle of an airport and we had to get home. I lifted my head and slid from his grasp.
"I missed you," I spoke quietly as he wiped away my tears.
"I missed you too," He smiled before his lips touched my own. "Now, how's my man Micaiah?" He asked turning to Micaiah.
"I'm good!" He smiled before Drake lifted him up off the cart and held him.
"You happy to be back?"
"Yup! Can I have some chocolate?" He asked Drake.
"Sure, we'll get some on the way home," He set Micaiah down and grabbed the cart before pushing it out the airport to his car.
"Oh shit, we don't have car seat," I cursed as we approached the car.
"Drake! Nika said a bad word!" Micaiah alerted him.
"You gonna tell her off then?" He asked before opening the car.
"Nika, you a bad girl for saying that word! Apologise now," He commanded, stopping his foot.
"Ok, I'm sorry for saying a bad word," I said before helping him into the back of the car. Once I'd finished, I got into the passenger seat and waited for Drake. He came back a minute later and got in.
"We all strapped in?" He asked as he always does.
"Yer," We replied before he drove out the car park.
"Aubrey, did you tell your mum about Micaiah?" I asked, turning down the radio so I could hear him clearer.
"Yer, she's cool with it, but she needs to know why soon, even if you don't tell me," He smiled, but I know he was upset since I was upset.
"Don't worry I'll tell the both of you," I smiled reassuringly as I rubbed his thigh.
"Ok, you wanna get a car seat now?" He asked me.
"All I have is Icelandic money, I don't have any dollars since I forgot to change them back," I replied.
"I'll buy it," He told me.
"No, it's ok, I don't wanna be using your money," I told him.
"It wasn't a question," He grinned as he parked the car and got out. "You wanna come an choose one?" He asked, holding the his door and leaning down.
"Yer, Come on Miacaiah, we're going to get you a car set," I told him as I unlocked my seatbelt.
"I don't wanna car seat," He whined.
"To bad," Drake opened my door and helped me out before I got Micaiah out.
"This one'll be ok," I told Drake, picking out one of the cheaper ones.
"No," He said bluntly before walking over to the more expensive seats. I rolled my eyes before putting the car seat back and following Drake. "You like this one, little guy?" Drake asked Micaiah, who nooded excitedly. "Alright," His eyes scanned the information before picking up a box. I looked at the price and my eyes bugged out a little.
"You are not paying that much for a car seat," I told him as I stopped him in his tracks by standing in front of him.
"Why not, you want Micaiah to be safe right?" Why does he have to do this?!
"Yes...but-"
"But nothing, this one has the highest safety rating, so I'm getting it," He smiled before walking around me to go pay for the overpriced car seat. Once Drake had payed for it and set it up in the car, we continued our journey back home, but not before stopping of at a newsagents to get some chocolate for Micaiah.
"Aubrey," I called looking up from my phone.
"Mhm," he replied, not taking his eyes off the road.
"Are you going to help me unpack?" I asked him, studing his masculine face.
"Of course," He smiled. When we arrived at Drake's, I picked up Micaiah and Drake got the bags. "My mum might be out shopping, by the way," He let us know before unlocking the door and letting us in first. As soon as I walked in I could smell freshly made pancakes, waffles, bacon and sausages.
"Oh my god! You didnt?!" I asked surprised.
"Yup," He grinned as he rocked back and forth on his heels. I jumped up into his arms and started kissing all over his face.
"I love you!" I repeated quite a few times before Drake lowered me to the floor.
"I love you too," He smiled before kissing me softly.
"Ew! Get a room!" Micaiah exclaimed. We pulled apart and laugh at his comment.
"Boy, where'd you learn that?" I asked
"Lani, he says it to his friends when they kiss," He told me.
"Ok, you hungry?"
"Yer," We walked through into the kitchen and sat at the table. There were two plates on one side for me and Drake, and a smaller plate on the other side for Micaiah. I walked over to the table and sat down with Drake on my left and Micaiah opposite me.
"Mmm! This is good!" I moaned as I stuffed my mouth full.
"Damn! Is it really that good?" He asked.
"Yup!" Micaiah spoke, deciding he was now included in our convosation.
"And who said you were invited into our convosation?" I giggled.
"Me," He answered before scooping up some of the syrup from his waffles onto his spoon.
"Anyway, you finished?" I asked Drake.
"Yes," He got up and took my plate and his over to the sink.
"Hey, I never said I was finished," I pouted as I made my way over to him with Micaiah's clean plate.
"Are you finished?" He asked smirking as he held my dish above the dish water.
"Yes," I answered sadly. He dumped everything in the sink and rinsed them before putting it all in the dish washer. After everything was cleared up, Drake and Micaiah helped me unpack my stuff. We where going to unpack Micaiah's but we had no where to put his clothes.
"Nika, Micaiah!" Drake called from my bed.
"No need to shout," I picked up Micaiah and sat him on my bed with me and Drake. "Mhm,"
"Well, I was thinking, since your 'holiday' got cut short, that we could go camping?" He suggested.
