Chapter 34

"Why in hell did you do that?" Lumic asked once they finally got home.

"Do what now?" she asked sounding innocent, like she did not do anything at all.

"Going there and just straight out ask them!" he shouted now raising his arms up in the air.

"Man chill, it's no big deal" she stated plopping down in the bed and just watched Lumic pacing back and forth.

"No big deal?! Are you kidding me?!" he looked at Victoria with a look she could not decipher.

"What if they got you there?! What if that man suddenly pulled you in?! And the kids!" he shouted, groaning she looked up at the ceiling and stood up.

Scratching the back of her head she made her way near Lumic, staring deep into his eyes she knew he'd be angry but damn, was he hot when he is angered. She kept on getting nearer to him, while absentmindedly backing away from the girl he was now against the wall.

"What? Suddenly got silent I see" she smirked and placed her hands on the right and left side of the wall, trapping him, 'The ultimate move, 'Wall Slam'' Lumic thought deeply and tried not to blush.

"That's not the point Victoria" he still countered looking deep into her hazel nut eyes.

"Then what's the point Lumic? It was just a test, duh" she stated still not removing her hands from the both side of his face, he gulped down a blush soon spread throughout his face down to his neck.

"What if something else happened? What if you got kidnapped? Again?" he asked in a hushed voice, she mentally smirked as she still eyed him in his eyes.

"But I didn't, and that's what matters" she whispered and soon backed away.

"But I never knew Lumic Neel was a bottom though" she smirked and went out the room.

Breathing in and out, he loosened up his tie and slide down the wall, 'Damn that woman' he bites his lip and pinched his temples. Out of nowhere the memory of her moving lip came into mind, abruptly standing up he dashed to his bathroom and splashed some water into his face.

"Get a hold of yourself Lumic Neel, damn it" he said to himself splashing more of the water on his face, repeating what Victoria said to him, that was when it registered.

"I AM NOT A BOTTOM!" he shouted at the top of his lungs.

Laughing her heart out oh how good it felt when Lumic got all flustered and bottom like in between her arms, his flushed face and fidgeting state was to die for, she was glad she read some books that was like that.

"Not a bottom when he really acted like one" she scoffed and and laid down on the sofa and switching the television on.

Surfing down the channels she switched and switched but nothing really got her attention, staying at the music channel she dropped the remote down and just listen to what the song has to say or sing.

*Time's a ticking hearts are running

Think that Cupid's up to something

You ask me how I feel I say nothing*

"I am not a bottom" he said to her while he was making his way towards her, getting up she eyed him and smirked.

"Oh yes you are" she countered.

*But lately colors seems so bright

And the stars light up the night

My feet they feel so light*

"No I am not" he denied now plopping down besides her and looked at her straight in the eyes, rolling her eye balls she faced him with a 'Yeah-right' expression.

*I'm ignoring all the signs

I keep on frontin'

They ask they bluffin'*

"What's with the song though?" he asked her now listening in as well.

"I don't know, it just came through" she answered in a whisper now sinking deep into her seat, enjoying the relaxing sensation the couch was giving her.

*I keep you wondering

Keep you hunting for my lovin'

But I crave us hugging*

"Still though, why did you freaking do that?" he again brought up the dead topic, groaning she looked at him dead in the eyes.

"Oh come on Lumic, nothing happened" she raised her arms and gave him a shrug.

"Still, things could have been not what you expected it to be" he stated in a hushed tone lost deep into her hazel brown eyes.

*Yeah stay stubborn

'Cause I can't admit that you got all the strings

And know just how tug 'em*

"But it didn't" she replied now as well lost in his deep chocolaty almond eyes, snapping her head straight she wondered why did she look at him that way.

"It would've come to that" he still pressed on, his hushed voiced now replaced with the same voice he uses when he's trying to make sense.

"Lumic! It didn't" she too pressed on and looked at him with her eye brows furrowed.

*I think I'm in love again

In my head yeah you're in my head

I think I'm in love again*

Snapping their head towards the song that was going on, Lumic immediately turned it off with his face red as a tomato, 'Omg what the hell is with that music' clearing his throat he scratched the back of his head.

"You should get over it Lum, that topic is drop and dead alright" not a question at all she ordered him to drop the subject.

Sighing his frustrations out, he messed up his hair and just nodded. Leaning back at the couch he tried to relax but the thought of Jason Frayer coming at his family made it hard to relax and breath well.

Puffing her cheeks and crossing her arms, she looked at the time and there she finally saw it was five in the afternoon, turning her head back to the blushing man she smirked and tilted her head back.

"What's for dinner my sweet wife?" she asked with a smirk.

"Please don't call me that" shaking his head he got up from the couch and went to the kitchen.

"Welp, need to support my WIFE" she loudly shouted the last part.

"I'm a husband for goodness sake" he muttered under his breath.

Dangling both of their feet at the railings they watched on how they both interacted to each other, snickering and smirking from time to time. Oh how lovely would it be to tease them both.

A couple of minutes went by the two kids were now at the couch playing same board game while Victoria was supervising them, out of the blue the door went open and closed.

"Oh dear, the weather is so cold for June"

Hearing a woman's voice Ran and Josh dashed towards the side to see who have came in their home, hiding they only peeked in their head and eyes not showing anything more and there they saw a brunette woman with a coat on.

"Victoria, Lumic!" she shouted their names and took off her coat and hanged it.

"Vic-" turning her head at the side she met with two pair of eyes, one was hazel nut colored while the other one was in an ocean blue.

"Well hello there, is Victoria and Lumic home?" she asked trying to crouch down, her two months baby bump were now showing.

"Who are you? And why do you look like our mother?" Josh asked, who in the end got a smack in the head from Ran.

"Shush!" Ran smacked his head twice.

"Hey! What was the second smack for?" rubbing the spot where Ran smacked him he pouted and furrowed his eye brows.

"Because I felt like it" he stated with a triumphant smirk on his face.

Facing back to the woman who somehow looked like their mother, Ran found the woman not there at all, looking from left to right he dashed towards the kitchen and suddenly she was there with Lumic.

"I see you two have been busy" she snickered pointing at the two little kids.

"Ah yes, Ran, Josh please introduce yourselves" Lumic smiled at the two kids and bickered them both to come forward.

Shyly coming towards the adults, Josh pushed Ran at the front since he was most likely the older brother of them two, glaring at the blonde boy behind him he puffed his cheek and shyly went nearer.

"Hello" they simultaneously and shyly greeted.

"I'm Randell Neel, ten years old" Ran shyly introduced while fidgeting.

"I'm Josh Fate Neel, ten years old" Josh twiddled his thumb and would glance back and forth from the woman to the floor and repeat.

"Oh dear, this two are lovely children" Layla commented patting their heads.

"Where's Victoria anyways?"

"Here" popping out of nowhere she came in with her hands tucked in her pockets.

"What's up mom?" she asked with an eye brow raised.

"Just here to say I'm now in my two months" she giggled and showed them her baby bump, sweat dropping she mentally pinched her temples and just drop dead.

"But anyways not only that but I heard something's going on?" she tilted her head and looked at the couple.

"But wait" she eyed the two kids who were now fascinated and staring at her baby bump.

"You never told us anything about adopting" she smiled at the two kids who were now beet red and dashed upstairs.

"Ah yes, we kept it a secret for now" Lumic stated.

"I shall go make dinner first" he announced and went right ahead to the kitchen.

"And you my dear Victoria, you're in trouble" Layla stated as she too was now heading to the kitchen.

Groaning, of course her mother would know 'Duh!' plopping down at the couch with a thud, she suddenly felt her phone vibrate. Taking it out, it was what she was hoping to find, smirking 'Alright, it is on' mentally stated and went to the kitchen as well.

Meanwhile, at the room with full of papers and documents to be done he grumbled and scratch his head in frustration, 'That stupid Lumic, he left me here to do his work' he mentally cried and beg for mercy of the papers that stocked piled up.

"Lumician?" a blue little blob stuck his head out from the door way, peeking his head from the paper works he smiled and greeted him.

"Hey little blue, what's up?" he asked now reading it one by one.

"We've got a problem, again" upon hearing what Lucas just said, he looked up from his papers and stared at the young man.

"What is it?" coming near to the black haired man, he ruffled his blue dyed hair and looked at him straight in the eyes.

"Someone has been keeping an eye on the two kids" he stated with all seriousness.

Hearing what Lucas said, oh how he wanted to bolt right out and go to their home but sadly he can't, he need to finish the stocked up pile of papers before joining in the war. Looking back to the paper in his hand he was now reading it with full of seriousness, he nodded his head and hummed.

"Give me an eye as well, I'll finish this any time soon now" he stated and dismissed the topic for now.

Nodding his head he got his laptop out and searched through every internet of whom they could pass this to, 'Well there is Edward but he might be busy with his girlfriend and his studies' Lucas concluded and searched for it more.

"Oh yea!" Lucas exclaimed and looked back at the guy.

"There'll be a family bonding at Friday next week" he informed and got back to work, smirking on his seat Lumician still did not look away from his paper but he heard him loud and clear.

"Your pops going there?" he asked signing the paper and piling it at the others.

"Probably, maybe, will you be there though?" he asked not looking at the guy but at the computer.

"I don't know, Lumic would be there" he stated, and somehow his heart was aching.

"As well as the kids and Victoria" he whispered, leaning back at the chair, he does not know why his heart hurt so badly.

"Maybe because I just miss them all, that must be it" he mumbled under his breath.

"You said something Lum?" Lucas asked now eyeing the man that was still reading and signing some papers, shaking his head he gave him a 'No' and smiled.

"I'm good don't worry about it" he stated, now going back to serious mode.

"Ah, I almost forgot" shaking his head Lumician looked at Lucas with an amusing smile.

"What is it this time?" he asked with a smile on his face.

"Well, um" he fidgets and twiddled his thumb.

"He's finally coming home" his smile faded and turned into a ( 'o' ) shocked face.

"You're kidding" he stated now fully aware.

"Not, his schedule is set, he'll probably be home next week too" he scratched his head and looked at the man.

"Did you tell Lumic?" he asked.

"Not yet-"

"Omg! We're going to die young!" he immediately got to work to finish it fast.

"After this we should evacuate the building and go far far away" he stated in a panic mode.

"Yeah right like that will help!" Lucas shouted back in a panic as well.

"Why are we panicking?!" he asked now frantically running around.

"I don't want to deal with that man! He's crazy over us!" he shouted and almost thrown the papers everywhere.

"Oh yes right" Lucas calmed down and made a face.

"Why should I be involved if it's just you and dad, it's not like I'll die with you" he snickered and went back to his work.

"Plus he loves me, not obsess with me" he continued.

"For a man with a wife and daughter he still sure is obsess with us" Lumician shook his head and went back to his seat.

"Yes very much" Lucas agreed.
