It's been 3 months since Sebastian has left to film. You can't deny that you miss him immensely but he seems to fade from your mind once you're around the twins and Ben. You have grown closer to Ben as he has with the twins.
"Why are we going to daddy's flat?" James asked from the back seat. "Because he said he wanted to invite us to dinner," you replied with your eyes glued to the road. "Why did we bring your guitar?" Angelo piped in.
They were growing into the age where they asked question after another. "Because you asked me to," you calmly responded. "Are we almost there?" They simultaneously asked even though they exactly knew the flat was near.
"Yes," you sighed and turned up the Led Zeppelin song that was on. They began to imitate the guitar parts. After you passed the tedious traffic, you rolled into his flat complex and parked the SUV van. The twins were still in the Led Zeppelin mood.
You chuckled at the way they lip-sync to the music. "Come on prodigies," you giggled and turned off the car. They continued to sing along with the rhythm stuck on their mind. You kept a bright smile on your face as they lightly sang the lyrics until they got to the door.
"Hello," Ben greeted with a hug at the door. "Ooh, I can't quit you, baby," James lightly sang. Angelo swayed while playing the air guitar. "Are they okay?" Ben inquired. "Women I think I'm going to put you down for a little while," James almost inaudible sang.
"Led Zeppelin?" Ben questioned you. "Mhm," you hummed. "First it was Ed, now Led," Ben chuckled. "You can't blame me for raising our children with great taste in music," you replied. Ben went to his home radio and connected his phone; he put the song to play all through the flat.
"My love for you I can never hide," Ben sang along with James. You grabbed the guitar and played a few of the chords you knew; it was the wrong guitar for the song but nobody cared.
Ben let the twins continue playing their air instruments and went by your side, "You're raising them right." You cheekily smiled and rested your head on his shoulder, "I know."
He chuckled making his chest rumble. "I'm almost done setting the table outside on the balcony. I'll take the food out once the twins finish their concert," Ben quietly informed.
"Let's go finish setting everything down Mr. Gordon Ramsay," you said making Ben let out a bellowing chuckle. "I was thinking, maybe we can bake some biscuits after this," he smiled at you. "They love ginger nuts, so if you've got the ingredients, we'll make them," you grabbed a few utensils.
He led you to the balcony that you've never visited before. "Oh my god," the view from his balcony was utterly gorgeous. The chilly wind caught you by surprise, Ben saw you holding onto your arms; he went inside and grabbed your coat. "We don't have to eat outside," he said covering your shoulders.
"No, it's fine. You've got that heating lamp thing or whatever it's called," you pointed to the source of heat. "Are you sure?" He questioned. "I'm sure," you nodded. "This setting reminds me of.. our first date," you quietly said.
Ben thought for a few short seconds, "The day after we kissed on set." You giggled at the memory, "You rented the flat for a night just to cook me dinner." He walked to where you were, at the edge of the balcony, "I couldn't help myself. I knew you loved these kinds of views."
You slightly turned to him while he viewed the busy London streets. "I do.." you said inaudible to him. By now a new Led song had come up. James and Angelo gazed through the door to see their parents impossibly close observing the view. They were going to quietly step inside but you turned around.
"What are you two doing?" You enquired. "Erm, nothing," James replied. "Come on, let's get your coats, we'll be eating outside."
