Foreign dream

Chapter 63

Aecha's P.O.V.
"Ain't that my gorgeous little star with her gentleman of a boyfriend!" My mother greeted us arms wide open.

I got in her embrace."Hi mom. Sorry we took so long, we made a little detour."

She smiled at Hobi."You're such a sweet boy for taking her there."

"I wanted to, but I'll take the compliment." He laughed.

"Come on, don't be shy, you deserve a welcome hug too." She said hugging him.

"Yup, I know where Ash gets it from." He commented.

"Oh please, you two must be tired, I fixed up Ash's old room for you two." She winked at me."Left a couple of surprises in there."

I sighed."Mom! I know you've hit your wave of creativity, but that doesn't mean you have to make clothes for me! Nor for him."

She chuckled."They're my samples. Choose whatever you want kids."

I bugged."Mom. I don't fit in designer samples."

"Oh, but you do in mine. I use your measurements for my samples." She smiled at Hobi."And I used yours for my collection since I now have them."

"Mom-" Hobi cut in before I could even begin a sentence.

"It is very thoughtful of you Nathalie, thank you." He said getting to the stairs.

I jogged after him."Hobi what was that?"

He grabbed my hand."Your mother offered because she wanted to and she seemed so happy about it. Accept the offer and if you don't want anything, don't take anything."

When I opened the door of my room, the first surprise ran to me."Ae-in! Aww I missed my little girl!" I hugged her and pet her."She got you trimmed huh? Look at that, you even have a new collar with a tiny bow on it! You're so adorable! Look at you!" I lifted her up to snuggle her in my arms."Look who's here too!"

Hoseok's P.O.V.
They were so adorable I couldn't help but join in."Yeah! I'm here too! Nathalie brushed your fur, it's so soft. She really took great care of you while we were gone huh?" I nuzzled Ae-in."You're too cute it's a crime."

"I missed her so much.." Ash sighed sitting on her old bed on which we would slip on tonight.

I chuckled."I can see that." I opened her closet."Hmm.. Summer collection is it?"

"What do you mean?" She asked me putting the dog down to join me. "Oh gosh.."

I couldn't help but smile."Yup. Skirts, dresses, swimsuits, rompers, some shorts, even some crop tops, ouh that is really pretty." I showed her what I saw.

A nervous laugh."I am NOT wearing this." She stared at me."No.. You're serious?"

I handed it to her."At least try it on, we'll see afterwards."

"Alright..." She said, her head in the closet."But you have to try.. This!"

I took the set."Classic. Simple. Stylish.. Like my lady."

She laughed and kissed me."Just shut it and get dressed."

"Maybe we can push the test of look further by testing their comfort over some coffee?" I proposed.

"You know that asking me out on a date was something you were supposed to do before we started going out with each other." She joked.

"Be condescending to me again and I'll test the resistance of these clothes in a way you won't be able to refuse." I warned her.

She answered back."Ain't happening in my mother's house mister. The guys were right, I do need to put you on a leash."

"You little-" I stopped talking when I saw her in what I chose."Wow.. Am I dead or does heaven alive exists?"

She checked herself in the mirror."More like you're at your funeral. All black."

"We can fix that." I went to get her a jacket. A light pink leather coat did the trick."Better?"

"Better." She kept checking herself out, judging every curve, every places where the fabric was hugging her.

I wrapped my arms around her waist from behind."You're gorgeous, admit it. Look at you.. You're perfect."

She rolled her eyes."Oh please.."

I held her tighter."Say it. Besides, I know you feel yourself in that outfit Ash."

She chuckled."I'm pretty.. This is gorgeous.."She spun around."I think I like dresses now."

"For once you finally understand what I get to see everyday." I said getting dressed myself.

She sighed."Hobi.."

"Hey. I'm not lying am I? I know it's hard for you to say it out loud. You keep important things in your head and you don't say them. Makes me happy you finally said what I believe is a given." I stated fixing my jacket.

She came beside me."Here, let me help you fix that." She placed my jacket by softly pulling it."You're forgetting that you do the same with yourself. The 'I'm not pretty' stunt you pulled when we were in America is one of the many examples sweety. You're handsome and you know it." She checked me out."Yeah, my mom makes amazing things."

I smiled."I agree."

She laughed."I know you're not talking about the clothes, so thank you, but your mother makes amazing things too."

"Hmm.." I pulled her by the sides of her jacket."This amazing thing does pretty good stuff too."

She grinned."Like what?"

I caressed her cheek."Like this.." I kissed her softly, as careful and gentle as I could be.

She smiled."That IS pretty good."

A voice from downstairs."Kids? Need help with anything? I was gonna make some pie, but I wanted to make sure you were okay first."

"We're good miss L'Écuyer!" I yelled making sure she would hear me before reducing my volume again and brushed Ash's hair behind her ear."Very good."
