Chapter 36
Tori Vega’s POV
Benedict and I were arranging the cushion pillows. He just finished having a shower and we decided to arrange the living room before I get dinner ready
Someone began to scream and we stopped. The screaming got closer and it came to our front door. The door bell rang and Bene looked at me
He went and opened the door and Tessa bursted in, screaming.
She looked around and saw me. She ran into me. I was quick to catch her
She hugged me tight and sweet
Benedict : looks like someone just got a wish come true
She giggled and dropped down
Tessa: I’m so happy!
Me: me too. I think I’m even happier
Then Beck opened the door and walked in

Bene : it’s my turn to hug
He ran into Beck’s arms and they hugged
Beck: this young man is pretty heavy
Bene : I eat too much
We laughed. Beck dropped him and bent down
Beck: how about I make up for the time we spent apart
Bene : yes you are … You have to
Beck: let’s start with questions and answers
Bene : like what’s your favorite food?
Beck: and what’s your hobby?
They chuckled
Me: and Tessa and I are gonna have some splendid time together. So we can bond
Tessa: I can’t wait
Benedict : but right now I’m hungry…
Me : Beck… Let’s go prepare dinner
I pulled his hand and we walked to the kitchen and I closed the door
Me: I guess it went well
Beck: yeah. She was understanding
He pecked my cheek
Me: Now let’s start cooking. Let’s cook a Mexican dish
Beck: which one
He held my waist as I faced the counter and he kissed my neck. I chuckled and washed my hands in the sink
Me : wash your hands and let’s get started, would ya?

These two weeks has been the best. So many fun things happened.
We went scuba diving. Snorkeling. Speed boating, picnicking. We went on a rubber dinghy too
Sometimes Tessa and I played Frisbee while Benedict and Beck played pool the bar
in
Well today, we went to one of the restaurants in the hotel. A very expensive one. Tessa was so excited but Benedict was just normal and it made Tessa yell at him for not joining the excitement
I’m so glad at how Beck and Bene are bonding. He already calls him dad. Tessa still calls me Tori. I wish she could call me mom, though I’m not officially her mom yet. I hope Beck makes that happen
After dinner, we had chocolate eclairs and Swiss rolls for dessert
Tessa: daddy, are you really eating that?
We all looked at Beck
He looked at his plate
Beck: I don’t know
Me: why do you ask Tessa?
Tessa: because daddy doesn’t take sugar
I looked at Beck again. He smiled and took a bite from the Swiss roll
Beck : tastes good
Tessa: wow…
Benedict : I don’t mean to spill the beans but… I saw mom feeding dad with sundae three days ago… In the kitchen
Me: busted!
We laughed
Beck: well, I miss chocolate and ice-cream. And all that…
Tessa: it’s good though. But please go back to your strict veggie diet so I won’t have someone to share my chocolate cake with
We laughed
Me: how about I order a chocolate fountain tomorrow?
Benedict : yes… Yes please
Tessa: yes… A big one
I looked at Beck who was concentrating on his Swiss roll
Me: agreed?
Beck: huh?
Me: the chocolate fountain
Beck : oh yeah sure. As long as its cold. And sweet
Tessa: I’m in love with my new dad
We laughed
Me: oh I told Jade about you Tessa
Tessa: who’s Jade?
Me: my best friend
Beck: someone I wish I could dodge
Benedict : if you meet her, just make sure you don’t laugh or smile. Or giggle
Tessa: why?
Me, Beck, Bene :
wwwwwwwell……. Nothing
She looked confused
Tessa: is it Jade West you guys are talking about? The lady who acted as Tana in Survive, that scary Vampire movie?
Me: yep
Benedict : that’s her
Tessa: oh my God. I love her. She’s always acting as the badass girl in all her movies. No one defeats her. But I heard she’s actually nice real life
Benedict: wow, the person who told you that needs to go to jail
I chuckled and held Tessa’s hand
Me: don’t worry. Jade is nice. She can’t wait to see you
Beck cleared his throat and Benedict laughed quietly.
Tessa: Benedict, can you please give me lessons on Jade West tomorrow?
Benedict : Now you’re talking. I definitely would
I laughed and looked at Beck
He dropped his left hand from the table and I immediately felt it on my leg. He rubbed his fingers on my lap and I smiled and dropped my right hand, taking his hand and playing with his fingers
After dinner, we went home and settled in Beck’s living room. We decided to watch a movie with the kids. They were sitting on the floor in front of the television and we sat on the cushion, eating a bowl of caramel popcorn
Benedict : mom we’re out of popcorn
I sighed
Me: this is the second time you’re running out of popcorn in thirty minutes
Benedict : two months are eating it
Me: and how many mouths are eating ours
I pointed to our own glass bowl which was still filled Tessa: you guys are adults you know
Beck chuckled and brought a big popcorn to my lips
I took it and Benedict sighed softly
Me: okay… Go and get it.. Before you eat me up
Tessa chuckled and stood up with him. They went to the kitchen together Beck : you do know they might fight over it in there right?
Me: and end up pouring all the popcorn on the floor
He chuckled and fed me again
Beck: you didn’t notice anything?
Me: what?
Beck: that I shaved
He brought his face closer
Me : wow, why didn’t I notice. Gosh! I love it this way
I kissed his lips
Me: you look younger. You could even act as a teenager without being noticed
He chuckled and gave me another popcorn. I fed him in turn and then leaned on his shoulder while he caressed my bare arms
We watched the movie for about ten minutes. The kids weren’t back yet Beck: I told you the duo would fight in there
Me: let me go and check
I wanted to stand but the two came back with different bowls of popcorn. They smiled awkwardly and sat down in their positions
Beck and I looked at each other
Me: did you guys do anything?
Benedict : yes we did
Beck : what?
Tessa: we got popcorn
They lifted up the bowls
Me: okay
I don’t trust them. I went to the kitchen and met it normal. I wanted to leave then my eyes caught the trashcan behind the fridge. I pulled it out and it was filled with popcorn and sugar. A broken bottle of honey was also in it.
I stormed to the living room
Me: what happened!
Tessa: it was Benedict! He began to hide all the popcorn in a leather bag. I tried to stop him but it poured on the floor
Benedict : though we made new popcorn. And the bottle of honey fell from her hand
Me: that’s it. You two, stand up
Benedict : mom…
Me: up!
They stood up from the floor still eating popcorn
Me: Benedict! To your room! Tessa! To my room! Now!

They groaned and walked away. I followed them and locked the doors.
I went back to Beck and sat down
Beck: they’re a headache
I rubbed my temples and drank water from the table
Beck pulled me to himself and began to kiss me. I responded quickly and sat on his legs while he held my waist. My hands were around his neck as I kissed him and my head was lowered to meet his lips.
His hands moved up to my back and down to my waist. My own hands then clutched unto his jaw
We kissed for minutes before disengaging to catch our breath
Beck: you’re beautiful baby
I giggled and sat on the chair. Then I placed my head on his legs and he played with my hair
Beck : how long are you staying here?
Me: supposed to be one month but dad wants to see you ASAP
Beck : so?
Me: should we go to USA soon?
Beck : I’m okay with it. Tessa would love the idea of visiting US
Me: so after that you would come back here?
He was silent
Beck: what do you want?
Me: come back to USA Beck
