His Secret Wife

Say What!

Alexander POV

It was nice waking up next to her naked.  It was nice laughing with her, teasing her, playing with her.  I missed this.

When we were kids we'd play all sorts of games.  My favorite game that we played is charades, picture charades.  But our way was different.  Using our fingers we'd draw on the person's back and guess what the other drew.  I loved it because every time I felt her touch, my skin would tingle.  I wonder if she felt the same way, the way I felt for her back then.

Dressed and ready to pick up Xan from Charlie I waited for her. 

Charlie had Xan for a whole night.  As much as I couldn't stand Charlie, I'm glad Ally and Xan had him even though he is gay for the most part. 

"Ready to go?"  I asked Ally who looked at me annoyed, "What?"

"Your stupid marker that's what, it wont come off no matter how many times I scrubbed."

I couldn't help but laugh, "It's not funny."

"Sorry baby but it's there for a purpose."

"Oh, come on like whose going to see it but you?"

"Are you saying I can see it anytime I want to?"

She didn't say anything, but grab my hand and we were out the door.

We drove back to the city where Charlie lives.

It was family's day out.  I plan to spend it with them. 

Upon our arrival, Charlie greeted us at the door with a big smile.  "Mommy, daddy."  Xan ran to us.

"Hey bud."  I picked him up, while Ally gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Thanks Char, thank you for everything."

"Any time girl."

Later that morning the three of us went to the zoo.  Xan was hyped to see the elephants but was disappointed when he didn't see any lions.

"Mommy where'd the lions go."

Ally bent down to his height, "They are sleeping.  So let's go before we wake them up."

"Okay mommy."  Xan looked up at me.  I could tell he wanted up, so I picked him up and place him on my shoulders.

We saw all sort of animals, we ate, and we took pictures like a family.  It was nice.

Couple hours pass and Xan was sleeping in my arms.  As I was holding Ally's hand, my fingers intertwined with hers, I asked, "Where's your wedding ring." 

"Oh, I pawned it."  She said nonchalantly.

She pawned it! "You did what!  I can't believe you, I still have mine."  I held up my finger, "And I still wear mine."

"Let me remind you I was hurt and angry..."  She paused.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled.  It's okay I'll get you a new one."

"You don't have to."

"Your right, I don't have to, I want to.  These men here must know you are taken."  I looked deep in her eyes.

She gave me a small smile.
