Christian POV
We got back from Canada last night and I just woke up. I told Vanessa we'd be coming home two days after today because I wanted to surprise her.
I walked into the kitchen and our dog, King jumped up as I scratched his head. "Hey buddy," I chuckled. "Vanessa's going to be here in about an hour."
We couldn't take King with us to our trip but Vanessa said she didn't have a problem coming over to feed him and make sure everything is okay at the house.
I haven't told her I'm back yet, so all I've been feeling was anxiety to know that she was coming over in a little while.
I was gone for two months and I simply couldn't handle the anticipation, but I knew I'd have to.
I already told my family about the surprise so I was good. Kizzy was in the basement, Kirsten was in her room and Crawf was still sleeping while my parents were out shopping. They've always had my back for anything and this one is really exciting for me, so I'm glad they pulled through.
I walked away from King as I went to the pantry and pulled out a cereal bar, then went to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water as I sat at the table.
As I looked at my phone, I already saw texts from Vanessa.
Vanessa🌙💜: I'm going to be at ur house in about an hour and a half, Roni's making me drive her to the store quickly then drop her home again before I get there
She sent that ten minutes ago so I knew I wouldn't have to wait as long.
Me: it's alright, take ur time 💜
I didn't expect an instant response since she was most likely driving, so I set my phone down and threw out my garbage and went back upstairs to my room.
It was warmer here than in Canada, thankfully. I went to my closet and grabbed an outfit before going to the bathroom and taking a shower.
About half an hour later, I got out and did the rest of my morning routine which only lasted in me having to brush my teeth since everything else was done.
I left my hair to air-dry and let it naturally fall into place, hanging slightly off my forehead.
After that I collapsed again onto my bed and turned on the TV as I waited for time to pass by.
Vanessa POV
I finally dropped off Roni at home and texted Chris before I started driving again.
Me: I'm on my way I hope I didn't make King wait to long 😥
He replied almost instantly.
Chris💟: dont worry he'll be okay. Thank u again for looking out for him
Me: anytime doodI smiled at my odd reply before setting my phone down, and starting the car.
After the fifteen minute drive, I pulled into his driveway and parked the car. I stepped out and made my way to his front door, taking a key out of my pocket that his family luckily trusted me with.
I stepped in and shut the door behind me, walking further into the usually quiet house before I ended up in the kitchen.
King ran to me and jumped up, leaning himself on my legs before I bent down to pet him. "Hey King," I softly said, as he attacked me with dog love.
I smiled before stepping away and walking to his food bowl, picking it up to refill it. I grabbed his food from the fridge and poured water into the other bowl, then set it back down.
After he quickly ate, I led him to the backyard and let him roam free to do what he needed to do.
I leaned against the screen door as I watched him run around, until I felt a way too familiar hold on my waist.
I turned my head and gasped as I saw Chris standing there, before engulfing him in a hug. He chuckled as he hugged me back. This feeling.. I missed it so much.
"I thought you weren't coming back for another two days," I mentioned, slightly parting the hug. "I wanted to surprise you," he smiled. I hugged him again and rested my head on his shoulder as we slowly rocked in place.
"I missed you so much, I was getting bored in Canada," he said. "I missed you too, I had nothing to do most of the time," I giggled.
We parted from the hug before we softly connected our lips. My hands remained around his neck while he kept his grip on my waist.
We soon were pulled apart as King again jumped on us. "Okay, okay we're done," Chris laughed at his action.
"Only you came?" I asked Chris. "No, I made everyone stay in one place so it looked like we still weren't here," he explained, taking my hand as he led me back into the house.
We went down the stairs and I shrieked as I saw Karisma. "Nessa!" She squealed, running towards me. We shared a massive hug that lasted fairly long, before we finally pulled apart.
"Did you get surprised?" She asked me. "Yeah, of course," I started. "I was peacefully watching King run around and then freaking Chris shows up behind me," I laughed out. "Yeah he's not the most subtle person," she noted. "I am too," Chris defended.
We all laughed before going upstairs again. On our way down the hall, Crawford walked out of the bathroom while on his phone. "Well hello to you too," I laughed. He looked up from his phone and a smile spread across his face, as we walked to each other before exchanging hugs.
"Can I accuse you of stealing anything?" He sarcastically asked. "Only if you find out about the party I threw while you were gone," I played along. The four of us shared laughs before he went back to his room.
"Kirs!" Kizzy yelled down from where we were. "What?!" She yelled back, opening the door. "Oh hey!" Her expression changed as we hugged. "How was Canada?" I asked. "Cold," she giggled. "So Chris trapped you in your room for the morning?" I asked, knowing she's almost always in the studio. "Yes he did, because he didn't want me to make noise in the studio," she explained. "You can make all the noise you want now," I said. "And I will," she smiled.
Kizzy left to her room while we ended our conversation, and Chris led me to his. He put King's dog gate across the door to his room so he wouldn't be able to come in, since Chris hates getting dog fur on his bed.
He leaned against his head rest as I sat facing him with my legs crossed in pretzel form."So tell me about Canada," I said, holding his hand. "I wanna take you next time, maybe it'll be more entertaining," he said. "It couldn't have been that bad," I stated. "Oh but young Nessa, it was," he said with an accent.
He pulled me to sit next to him, wrapping his arm around my waist while I leaned my head on his shoulder.

"You're not selfish, you're not bossy but you are a babe," Chris listed things off of a zodiac post from Instagram. "Well thank you," I smiled. "I could say the same to you though," I said, before leaning in to kiss his cheek, until he quickly moved his face and made me peck his lips. "How smooth of you," I admit. "I try not to brag," he shrugged.
I turned his face to mine and slowly kissed him again, our lips moving in motion until we finally pulled apart breathless. "I love you," I said against his lips. "I love you too."
This was random but i had this idea so why not
