The Chronicles of Two Broken Wings { Robert Downey Jr.} [First Book]

Chapter 8

I decided that "Yes" would be the answer but I just wanted some hours to pass by.

"So what do you want to do today love?" he asked in a British accent.

"Well Holmes I want to go and see my dad, you can stay here if you don't want to come with me, but I'd rather have you there. And then I was thinking that you could meet my mother and grandmother" I started rambling like an idiot.

"Ohh that would be lovely baby! Well let me finish my coffee and we'll get going"

An hour later we were standing in front of my fathers grave. My knees gave in almost immediately but Robert caught me. Even after all these years the sadness still got me.

"Hey dad! Here we are again. Never forget that I love you and that I will never forget you. You are the most iconic man in my life and I'll be here even if I might be far away. I'm taking Robert to meet mom. I hope she'll like him. Well anyways we'll get going"

"Not that fast Jo! Hey mister M. I know you hate me because I want to take your daughter far away from here but I love her dearly and I can't stand another second without her. I hope you will be alright with this. I only want to make her happy and get her what she really deserves: happiness and a lot of love.  Bye mister M."

I watched Robert as he was talking to a grave. It made me feel like he wanted him as alive as I wanted my dad to be. He was there for me no matter how crazy it looked like talking to a tomb.

"Come on beautiful let's go meet your mother honey"

I drove to my grandmothers place. The drive was silent but we enjoyed it. We didn't need that many words to make us feel loved or complete.

"Hey mom!!" I said as I hugged her. "How is granny?"

"She's a lot better sweety. Thanks for asking. And who might this man be darling?"

"Ohh stupid me. Mom this is my boyfriend Robert. Robert this is my mother"

Robert extended his hand to shake my mom's hand, but instead she pulled him in a tight embrace.

"Don't you dare shake my hand. My daughter is glowing and she's as happy as she can possibly be. The least I can do is hug the man that makes her feel happy. Come one dear. Let's get you two inside."

"Robert come and meet granny" I said as I took his hand guiding him towards her room

As I entered the room my grandmother literally jumped off  the bed and into my arms.

"Ohhhh my beautiful Jo! I have missed you dear. You have to stop working that much and enjoy.." she suddenly stopped when she met Roberts gaze. 

"What is Iron Man doing in my bedroom darling? You know I'm not dying and I never submitted a wish for "Make a Wish" or something"

Robert couldn't hold his laughter anymore.

"When you said your grandmother was cool I didn't think you meant that cool. Hi ma'am. I am Jo's boyfriend, Robert"

"Boyfriend?!? Wow Jo you've outdone yourself this time darling. Look at him. How handsome he is in real life. Remember when you used to drool..."

"Okay granny that's enough for today" I interrupted her because I knew what she wanted to say. I was practically drooling over Robert every time I was watching one of his movies. Can you blame me for that?

She pulled him in a tight embrace.

"You mister better look after my grand daughter here. I love seeing her smile and you do all of that. The glowing, the happiness. Can't wait to meet my great grand children"

"Granny shut up! Jesus!" I was quite embarrassed now.

"Don't you take that name in the dessert young lady or I'll slap some sense into you with my Bible"

We had launch with them and they were both crazy about Robert. They chatted about random stuff and they all seemed to enjoy their evening. My grand mother couldn't resist the temptation so she was staring at Robert. It was quite a nice day.

"Well we should get going" I said as I got up from the table."But I have one more thing to tell you both before we leave" I inhaled deeply " I am going to leave with Robert next week. I'm moving to America. I hope to get a better job than the one I have here and maybe it will all change for the better" by the time I finished my sentence Robert was staring at me with a look of happiness.

"Ohh darling we are so happy for you. Go! and be good. But I hope we'll have you two for the holidays here. Right Robert?"

"Of course misses M. and granny. We'll be here"

We said our goodbyes and hugged. As we got to the car Robert took the keys from my hand.

"You were serious up there? You're coming to America with me next week?" He asked full of hope.

"Yes! I thought about it and why not. It's not like I have the worlds best job here and I can still visit my family. The one thing I'm not able to be without is you and only you honey." He literally jumped on me and kissed me.

"You don't even know how happy you made me right now. I'll have to call Hannah and tell her. She will freak. She will actually have another woman to talk to and be friends with. She has had enough of my temper"

Robert's P.O.V

My girl is coming with me. I can't believe it. I'm on cloud nine now and I never want to get down from there. I have to call Hannah like right now.

" Hey Hannah!"

"Hey Downey. What's up?!?"

"Well I just wanted to tell you that you have to get talking with the people you said you would talk to  for Jo! SHE IS MOVING IN WITH ME! I can't freaking believe it" I was probably rambling by now.

"Wow slow down there Robert. You are telling me that Jo is coming back with you?!? I will finally meet the girl you have been talking about! Wow. This will be awesome. I will have a new best friend and I won't have to put up with your shit 24/7. Hurray for me."

"Yeah whatever Hannah. So will you talk with them for Jo?!?"

"Of course Downey. Consider it done."

"Thank you. Good Night!"

"Good Morning for me Downey!"

I laughed as she said that. I forgot about the time difference. 

I was to happy to think about that. The woman that I love is coming with me. We'll be together in the same house and I'll get to wake up every morning and see her pretty face.

Jo's P.O.V

Well I have never seen Robert so happy. I'm glad I can make him feel this way.

I can't wait to start a new life with him by my side. I know it will be rough at times because I'm not used to the whole famous lifestyle just yet, but I know for sure that he will be there for me every step of the way.

I can't wait for my new life in America.
