Chapter-27

"Suddenly I feel like I haven't missed you at all." I say, giving him the side eye.

"Sure." He said, his tone nothing but mocking.

"I'll kick you out, don't test me." I warn him.

"Okay, eyes on the road." He reminds me.

"How was the meeting?" I ask.

"Same old." He replied. We spent the rest of the ride talking about the meeting and work related things.

Parking the car, I picked up Piccolo and Chase picked up his suitcase as we travelled up to his home.

"Did you not lock the door while leaving?" He asks once we were standing outside.

"I did." I furrowed my brows at his stupid question.

"Someone's in there." He said.

"What? How..maybe it's Marie?" I say.

"No, I gave Marie a leave." He tells me.

"Oh. I can ask Piccolo to scratch the intruder." I tell him, looking at Pico. Ohemgee. That sounds so nice, I just gave Piccolo a nick name.

"You stay here, I'll check." He says, ignoring my suggestion.

"No, we'll come with you. What if he or she jumps you? You're a big man and all but what if the intruder is taller than you?" I ask. He's 6'4, imagine him standing next to a 7 feet tall person. He'll look like me standing next to him. The thought made me laugh to myself. I stop when he gives me a bored look and walks inside.

Carefully walking we both look for the thief. I look towards the kitchen. Someone is standing infront of an open fridge.

"Alexander, what the fuck man?" Chase says loudly which makes Alec drop the bag of chips that was tucked under his arm down along with the bottle of my strawberry lemonade.

"That was mine!" I exclaim, putting Pico down on the kitchen counter.

Alec, who was shocked, removed his hand from his heart and picked up the bag and bottle. "You scared me." He says quietly. "And don't call me Alexander." He points his finger at Chase.

"What are you doing here?" Chase asks, clearly mad at him.

"I ran out of food." He tells us.

Chase started cursing in another language, I take that as my cue to start ignoring him.

"You stole my lemonade." I narrowed my eyes at Alec and folded my arms, his eyes immediately dropped down before he shut them tightly.

"Jesus, forgive me for my sin." He prayed, not opening his eyes. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to." He says.

"Meow."

Pico meows, making us all look at him. "WHAT IS THAT?" Alec yells moving closer to have a better look.

"I found him at the airport. Someone left him there, so I adopted him. He'll stay with us." I tell him.

"What's his name? Did you name him yet? Can I do that?" He asks excitedly.

"No we named him. Meet Piccolo." I pull Pico out of the box and cuddled him. "Your bestfriend is a daddy now." I tell him, looking at Chase.

Alec who was shamelessly drinking my lemonade, choked on it before he started laughing loudly, I realised what I said. I didn't say anything wrong though, bitches really ruined a good word. "You have shit filled in your brain." I look away from him to find something to hit him with.

"Can you scratch him Pico?" I ask, finding nothing else.

"Daddy Chase." Alec says laughing at his own words.

"I'll make Pico ruin your pretty face." I threaten him.

"I'm sorry, That was the highlight of my day." He says, controlling himself. It wasn't even that funny.

"Can I kick your idiot bestfriend out?" I ask Chase who was ignoring us. He nods before walking upstairs to his room.

"Okay, I'm sorry." Alec says, following me.

"No I'm not talking to you." I take a seat on the sofa, stroking Pico's back.

"Fine. It's not like I'll die without talking to you." He says, plopping down next to me.

I gasped. " Alexander Kingston. You do not disrespect your queen, peasant." I say dramatically.

"I'm sorry your highness." He plays along.

"Get me a bowl of water." I order him.

"Your wish, my command queen." He rolls his eyes before bringing the bowl of water. He kept it on the table, I set Pico down. He quickly starts drinking water. My baby was thirsty.

"Thankyou." I say to Alec.

"It's fine. I better leave before he takes the key from me. Bye Cel." He says, walking out with the lemonade and chips. He could've bought them instead of coming here, dumbass.

"Bye."

I walk to the kitchen, cooking something for both of us instead of ordering takeout since he's obviously not eating homemade food for the last three days.

Chase came downstairs when I was in the middle of cooking lunch and hugged me from behind. He smelled really nice.

"You could've wrapped a towel around your head." I say, as a water droplet trickled down my neck from his hair.

"I was tired." He says.

"I gave Pico some milk and he slept after drinking it." I tell him. He hums in response.

"You're distracting me." I say, feeling his lips softly brushing my neck. I tried to pull away.

"Don't do it." He said, getting annoyed.

He held me the whole time I was cooking and after I finished too. He ate from my hands and then slept on my lap as I gave him a head massage.

Clingy bitch.
