No One Ever Comes Close To You

Chapter 21.

Amelia
What Aston said about having kids shocked me to say the least. I knew he wasn't suggesting anything but it made me think that he would be soon. In the future I knew I wanted children and obviously with Aston if everything worked out but right now I was far from that point. I collected a trolley from outside the shop and walked into ASDA to start shopping for food for the next few days. Dumping random things into the trolley as I went along, making sure I had enough meals. Once my trolley was loaded and I was happy with everything I had got I went to the till to pay for everything.

"Have a nice evening." The man on the till smiled at me as I finished putting my bags back into the trolley.

"Thank you, you too." I said back even though he probably wouldn't as his night would most likely be stuck working. I loaded the car up with all the bags and took the trolley back. I climbed into my car and made my way back towards home.

"Aston I'm back." I called through as I closed the door and took the remaining bags towards the kitchen.

"Ast?" I shouted again as I got no reply. I placed all the shopping bags on the kitchen sides and went into the living room. When I pushed open the door my breath got caught in my throat at what was in front of me. The lights had been turned off and the whole room was just lit up by little candles all around the room. The candles must have been scented because I got a gorgeous smell wafting up my nose. In the middle of the room the sofa had been pushed backwards and there was a large checked blanket laid out. On the blanket was a small bouquet of red roses and a white bag. Just as I was about to go find Aston and ask him what all this was about an arm travelled around my waist and I was pulled into a hard figure next to me. I looked up and saw Aston looking down at me, a small smile on his face.

"Whats all this?" I asked quietly.

"Its for you."

"But why?"

"I wanted to make up for all those months we've been apart and for what I did to make us break up in the first place. I know this isn't going to completely make up for it but its a start." He told me, only just getting the chance to finish before I pressed my lips firmly against his.

"I love it, thank you." I breathed as we pulled apart. A smile stretched across his face. He took his arm away from me and ran his hands over my shoulders, swiftly pushing my jacket off me. He threw it over the back of the sofa and waited for me to kick my shoes off before leading me over to the blanket. He sat down on the blanket, bringing his legs up next to him. I sat down in front of him with my legs crossed, refusing to move away from him.

"I know I should've cooked something but I didn't have much time before you got back so I got us a Chinese take out." He chuckled and pulled the white bag closer to us, emptying it. There was so much food, way too much for both of us.

"You trying to make me fat." I giggled.

"No but since you haven't been eating much lately, I'm filling you up." He grinned and pecked my cheek. I rolled my eyes and lent back against his legs while he dishes up our foods onto two plates he had gotten.

"Thank you baby." I said as he passed me my plate. He smiled and got his own as we both started to dig in.

"I don't remember the last time I had a Chinese, whats wrong with me?" I groaned, fulling enjoying the food.

"I don't know babe, you've been missing out." He chuckled, having another huge mouthful of his spring roll.

"I need a drink." I said after a while, going to stand up.

"Nu ah, not so fast." He said before reaching next to him and picking up a bottle of red wine.

"Where did you get that from?" I asked.
