Chapter 72: Chapter 72

WRITER'S POV

Dresden canceled all his meetings for the day so he could be with his favorite girl. As usual, Avitia made him do things that he didn't want to do. Like going to the park, feeding birds, playing with little children. Avatia noticed that he enjoyed playing with little children and smiled at the thought of having children herself. What if she had children with him? That would be great. The children would be just as perfect as him. She smiled at the thought as both walked hand in hand to go get ice cream.

"What's making you smile that way?" He asked looking at her in amusement.

Oh, poor Avatia blushed even more. How would she tell him she was thinking about having kids with him? He'll think she's rushing things. She had to play cool. She shook her head and looked away. "Its... It's nothing."

Dresden stopped walking and faced her. "You were blushing a while ago. If you do not tell me what made you blush, I'll tickle you right now till you do something embarrassing like snorting, farting. "

That part frightened her and she shook her head laughing. "You wouldn't dare," Dreidan smirked evilly. "Wanna try me?"

Avatia blushed even more knowing the guy was serious. "Go on, tell me what was going through your mind."

She looked away. "I just thought of having kids when I saw you playing with that little boy."

Dresden cooed. "Oh, I see, with who if I may ask?" He teased, knowing the answer already. He thought of the same thing too. Avatia was a blushing mess. "Princess...with whom do you want to have these kids?"

Avatia groaned in embarrassment. She looked away. "You." She said shyly and shut her eyes, waiting for him to embarrass her by laughing or doing something awkward. What she didn't expect was to feel his warm lips on hers. That was unexpected. His magical lips made her forget they were in public. Did the kiss mean he wants children too? Then he suddenly pulled away. Okay, she got her answer. He didn't want kids too.

"I love you princess. So much. And yes, I would love to have children with you." He told her, playfully pinching her red cheeks.

An older couple, actually, the same couple who they had seen months ago, the first time they came to the park, passed by. Dresden remembered they were Italians too.

The older couple stopped and smiled at them "Voi due to di Nuovo. Buonasera." (You two again. Good evening. ) The lady greeted with a warm motherly smile.

Dreidan smiled back. "Buonasera." (Good evening.)

The older man spoke up this time. "Com'é andata la vita?" (How has life been?)

Before Dresden could answer, the chatty old lady chirped in. "Voi due siete già sposati?" (Are you two married already?) She asked with a bright smile remembering that the last time they met, he said he was going to marry her.

Dresden looked down at the girl in question and smiled. A smile straight from the heart. All this while, she just stood watching the trio chat away in a language she didn't understand. She was so cute with kiss swollen lips and rosy cheeks. Dresden looked Avatia in the eye while answering the lady's question. "Non ancora. Ma molto presto. Molto presto." (Not yet. But very soon. Very soon.) He said, feeling his heartbeat increase at the thought of marrying her.

The older man and woman smiled, envisioning the two getting married. "That would be a very very good, dear child. I can tell she has a heart of gold. Anyways, we will get going. Good luck." The woman said this time in English and left with her husband.

Acacia turned to Dresden with a sheepish smile. "Wanna tell me what you guys were talking about?"

Dresden smirked and kept walking. "Nope."

Avatia giggled following behind. "C'mon Dre, tell me, will you?"

The tall guy just kept walking and smiling, pondering on the idea of marriage and children. "I'll tell you when we go on that date where I have to wear white." He teased and she giggled, matching his footsteps.

"Now I'm eager for the date." She said happily.

Later that evening, Kenny paid a surprise visit to Avatia. She was beyond ecstatic to see her dear cousin. "Kenny!" She jumped in excitement.

"Honeybunch! My sweetheart. Gawd I missed you so much, darling. Thank your stars that you remember me. I was gonna whoop yo' ass if you didn't. " A very excited Kendall told his favorite cousin. "My goodness Ava, I was so worried. You

even made me do something which I do not do." He said while folding his arms and pouting like a kid.

Draya who was popping corn chirped in. "What did you do?"

Kendall the drama queen rolled his eyes. "Duhhh...I prayed."

The two girls burst out laughing. They did not expect such an answer. "Seriously Kenny? But still, thank you cuz'. Your prayers indeed helped me."

Avitia said gratefully.

Draya suddenly started smiling and strangely looked at Avatia.

"Don't look at her like that. It's creepy." Kendall said with a chuckle. "What's up with the smile?"

Draya's smile widened. "You're not the only guy who prayed for our dear friend.

"

Both Avatia and Kenny looked at her in confusion. "What do you mean?" "Who else prayed for her?" Both asked in unison.

"I'm not 100% sure of my answer, but I believe Dreidan prayed for you.' Draya said happily.

Kenny the drama queen shouted. "What? The monster can pray? Good grief, I haven't heard about him since you left and now that you're back, his name is up again."

Avatia glared at him. "He's not a monster. He's a good guy and I love him and as a matter of fact, we're going on a date the day after tomorrow.

"What?" The other two gasped with wide eyes. "A date?"

Avatia blushed in embarrassment. The poor girl did not even know she'd said that out loud. She simply nodded and looked away.

"That's freaking hot. Means we got to go shopping." Draya said to Kenny's surprise.

Kenny could not believe what he was hearing. "You're in support of her going out with him. I admit he's hot and sexy and I'll give anything for him to be my man, but the guy is dangerous and the last time, he endangered Avitia's life. I'm not in support. "

Draya who had been a witness to all the love Dreidan showed her friend, rolled her eyes. "We didn't ask for your opinion, gay ass. And as for you Avatia, we're going to Agent Provocateur tomorrow for something sexy." Draya said with an evil smirk.

Avatia blushed profusely. "Agent Provocateur?"

Draya nodded, her smirk never fading. "Yup. You need something provocative and extremely sexy. Who knows, you might lose your virginity 'that night." She ended with a bad girl wink.

Kendal burst out laughing. "That would be fucking awesome. Someone's gonna is getting her first dick."

The blonde in the spotlight was speechless at how her friend and cousin shamelessly spoke about her nonexistent sex life. Before she could speak up, Draya's phone started ringing.

Draya picked up the call and froze when she heard who was on the other line. She

excused herself and went into the kitchen. A few minutes later, she returned with a worried look on her face.

"What's wrong?" Avatia asked.

"I hope it's not bad news again. " Kenny said dramatically, covering his ears.

Draya sighed and looked at Avatia. "Your mom is back, and she wants to see you tomorrow."

I'll try to update ASAP my sweethearts. Maybe tomorrow or after tomorrow.

Depends on you guys though.

So how was the chapter? who's eager for the DATE night?
