Stay over(1)

"Can you stay over?" She pleaded when he looked at her questioningly.

He gazed down at her and tried to calm his racing thoughts. He didn't mind staying over, but wouldn't he be asking for a beating from Theodore? He knew that her father didn't fully approve of him yet, and he might just decide to kill him if he thought that he was trying to take advantage of Zaria. Not to mention, there was the puppy that didn't seem fond of him either.

"Let's go to my place instead, if you don't mind." He suggested.

"Okay." She placed her hand in his, ready to go to his mansion. They got back to his car and drove to his home. They had already had their dinner at the celebratory banquet so neither of them was hungry. They freshened up and Desmond changed into cotton pajamas, while Zaria wore the nightdress that they had bought on their way.
