Fifty-Three
A/N: So I figured while I had some free time, I'd update His. Heh, honestly it was hard not to update so I took a break and decided you guys should get one. It's short but I hope you like it.
Ellie
I was in the middle of a Deadly Women episode when I heard the lock turn. I looked lazily towards the door and saw Leo step through.
"Ellie?" He asked
"In here." I yelled from the couch
Soon he walked in with a huge smile on his face.
"Hey you, how was visiting with your mom?"
He sat down on the couch heavily.
"Good. She's sick though."
"Is she okay?"
"Yeah... she just has a broken heart." He said quietly
"I know you don't like talking about your family much, but what happened?"
"Simple: my father is a cheating bastard. And my mom...a great woman has to suffer for it." He said perturbed
I stayed quiet until he looked towards me.
"Oh, and she wants to meet you."
Then his smile was back.
I swallowed hard. Meeting the parents, especially the mom is always a huge fear of mine.
"Why do you look so freaked out?" He asked me
"What....what if she doesn't like me?"
"You're kidding me right? Ellie, if you could get Josh of all people to like you, my moms a cake walk." He smiled
He had a point. When I first met Josh, I swear his interrogation would never end. He asked me so many questions, and gave me so many speeches and warnings about Leo and his feelings. But I'd never hurt Leo, I loved him way too much. Not to mention the man was a strict control freak. I know they were both Doms, but man, Leo was a sharp contrast compared to the other owner of Club Caged. But as I slowly got to know him more, Josh turned out to be pretty cool. I found out that he volunteered with at risk youth on weekends, and even donated money to and volunteered at the puppy shelter. He was a sweetheart who just really was protective of those he cared about.
"I understand why he was so harsh on me, he made sure you were protected."
"Yes, I guess in some way I'm paying for what I did to Katie growing up." He smirked
"He just loves you is all. Isn't that what you told me about Jack?"
"Well yeah... but that was way different." He said
"Nah, not really. So, when do I get to meet your mom?" I asked with a smile
"When she's better. We agreed on having a family barbecue: me, you, her, my sister, and a couple of other close family members."
"Sounds good." I said nervously
He placed his hand on my knee and I looked at him.
"They will love you, Ellie. Just be yourself okay?"
"I'm no other way. But I hope your mom is okay."
"You and me both. Oh, and I found out some good news."
"What?"
"I'm gonna be an uncle soon."
"That's great Leo. Just imagine, you and kids. I bet that would be so cute." I teased
"Oh hush, I adore children. I have soft spots for... helpless creatures." He smirked
"Aren't you the sweetest thing." I smiled
He crawled over to me and loomed above me with a smile. He kissed me and lowered on top of me.
"Stop teasing me." he murmured
I giggled and wrapped my arms around his neck.
Leo
I slipped my boxers back on and headed into the kitchen for some water. After that, I went back to lay back down beside Ellie. She was sleeping. It was one am at this point and I decided to check my phone. When I did I saw a text from an unsaved number.
Met your new toy today... you know, she's actually really nice.
I rolled my eyes and shut my phone off, putting it back on the night stand. When I had the chance, I will be changing my number.
I laid on my back and stared at the ceiling thinking fondly of our last night in Italy and it brought a smile to my face. It was one of the best moments of my life.
My eyes landed on the painting I painted her, across from her bed, hanging proudly where it could be easily seen and I instantly felt warmth course through me. I turned over slightly and kissed her cheek. She stirred with a smile and then settled once more. I hope that this continues as good as It is now because nothing could ruin this.
At least, I hope nothing could.
She suddenly sat up in bed and looked over to me.
"I swear, sometimes it's like you're a Zombie or something." I tease
She smirks.
"Shut up. You okay?" She asked
"Yeah, I'm fine."
She lays on my chest.
"Thanks for coming over." She says softly
"Sure baby, I don't mind. Looks like we'll be in this house all week."
"I guess. This is your first sleep over isn't it?"
"Yeah, I never thought of that before." I smile "Honestly, I like your bed better than mine."
"Oh really? What about my bed is better?"
"It has you in it." I said quietly
She kissed the bottom of my jaw line.
"You get lonely at home or something?"
"Yes. It's weird Ellie... ever since you spent the night the first time, I realized how lonely I really was until I had you next to me in bed. It's not even about the sex... it's about getting to hold you and having something warm next to me to wake up to. You've made me soft Ellie." I murmured
"Not my fault."
"Yes it is."
"How?"
"I feel the need to protect you at all times. That's why."
She hit me with a pillow.
"Eh, wrong answer!" She giggled, imitating a buzzer.
I tickled her a little.
"Go back to bed Pet."
"I will if you will."
"Yes, I'm going with you Love."
She laid back down on my chest. And soon, we were both out like a light.
