Chapter 32: Chapter 32

Hailey Anderson

"Granny!" I ran to my grandma and hugged her tightly. I missed her.

"Hello my little pumpkin." She chuckled and I kissed her cheek.

"How are you?"

"Your granny is getting old and you rarely call me." She glared at me and I laughed.

"I called you 2 weeks ago.” I said.

"That's 2 weeks ago young lady.”

"Who is this handsome guy, Hailey?" My grandma asked as he saw Luke standing at the door.

"Hello Mrs. Anderson, I'm Luke Hastington. Hailey's boyfriend." He introduced himself and I smiled. He shook my grandmother's hand.

"Oh Luke.. just call me Delly.”

"Where is granddad?" I asked.

"He's at the back staring at his lovely plants." She said.

"Let's meet my funny granddad." I took Luke's hand and dragged him to the garden. I saw my granddad is currently feeding the fishes.

"Granddad!" I squealed.

"Oh?? Is that my favorite Hailey calling?" He joked and I laughed. I ran to him ugging him so tight and he chuckled.

"How's my little red chilli?"

"Granddad I've grown up.. I'm not a chilli anymore." He used to call me that because my red head and I'm hyper so he called me chilli.

"Who is this man? Is he the one who is trying to steal you from me?" He pointed at Luke and I laughed. Luke chuckled and shook my granddad's hand.

"Yes I am sir." Luke answered.

"Well if you hurt my chilli, I'll throw a real chilli at you.” He threatened and Luke laughed.

"I won't hurt your chilli sir." Luke said.

"Good to know.”

"Hailey.. take Luke for a walk around the neigbourhood while we're preparing dinner." My granny said and I gave her a thumbs up.

"Come on.. I'm going to take you around." I took Luke's hand when suddenly Molly jumped to Luke.

"Wow wow Molly.. easy there girl." I guess my dad just got home from walking around with my grandparents husky. She jumped to Luke sniffing him.

"Hello there.” Luke stroked her and she licked him. I pulled Luke away from her before Molly attacks Luke more. We washed our hands first and walked out from the house.

"This is where I used to live before moving to New York." I said as I clinged my arms to his.

"Small neighbourhood.”

"It's really quiet here and yes it's really small.. we know all the person who lives here." I said and walked to the small playground.

"This is where I used to play.. cute right?"

"I can’t imagine that little Hailey running around." Luke said and I laughed.

"You're right.. this is the place where I got my first kiss too.”

"Oh really? What's his name?" I chuckled as he asked in a cold tone.

"Clark.”

"Where is this Clark now?"

"Live in Miami with his wife and kids. Jealous much?" I joked and he shook his head. Suddenly I really want to hug him. I circled my arms around his hips and buried my face to his chest.

"Is there something wrong?" He asked.

"No.. just wanting to hug you." He hugged me back tightly and kissed the top of my head.

"Oh.. I wanna ask you about the punishment that Aaron mention after you bid on me." I asked and looked up to him.

"We used to make so many promises, one of them promises it that we won't get whip and settle down. Ken said that we need to make our own punishment if we settle down."

"What? So Aaron, Sky, Alex and Max already did theirs?"

"Of course.. we're a man with words and we never back down from our promises.”

"So you decided the punishment yourself?"

"Yes.. we decided it for ourself and write down as a contract. The guys know about it we can't change that.”

"What's yours and theirs?" I asked.

"Aaron is beating him up until his face all full of bruises, Sky is buying us a sports car, Alex is giving us golds and Max is dancing naked in front of us all.” I laughed as hearing Max's punishment.

"What's yours?" I asked and he sighed.

"Let's not talk about that.”

"Oh.. you're no fun, come on tell me so I can see what you're going to do.”

"Do you think I will be settling down with you?" He asked and my eyes widen. He laughed and I glared at him.

"I've already done it Hailey.. geez let's not talk about that." I smacked his chest.

"What? You've already done it? What is it?"

"I regreted promising that now." He sighed

"Tell me Luke.. what is it?"

"Pole dance naked in front of them and buy them drinks for a whole year." He closed his eyes and sighed, I laughed so hard.

"Oh my.. you and Max are stupid.”

"I laughed at him and I didn't know I'm next but I've already done it." I kissed him hard. I love this man.. yes I love him.

"You should have done it with me watching.”

"Sorry Hailey.. a deal is a deal.. only them who can witness that." He said and I pouted.

"So you're settling down with me?" I asked and he shook his head.

"I hate you asshole." I knew he's joking.

"I love you stupid." He suddenly said and my eyes widen. He raised his eyebrows waiting for me to said it back or answer him.

"I don't love you stupid.” He laughed and ruffled my hair.

"Don't touch me!" I pushed his hand away and walked away from him. He always tease me and I hate it. He pulled my hand and crashed his lips to mine. He’s kissing me like there's no tomorrow.

"I love you my spoil brat." He whispered.

"I love you too Lukey" I said and smiled.

"Glad to hear that again after it disappeared for a long time." He chuckled.

"Come on let's get back before dad ate all my potato wedges." I pulled him and we walked back to our house.

I love you Luke.. a lot, I don't know if I can live my life without you in it.
