Helia walked in the kitchen where Saladin was doing breakfast, and sat down at the table. Saladin looked over his shoulder.
"Ah, good morning, sleeping prince." he said with a smile that reached from his ear to the other.
"Morning, grandpa." Helia yawned.
"How are we today?"
"Very good considering it's the second day of the summer vacation." Saladin laughed at his grandson. "Oh, someone's very happy today, mmm?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Well, you have a smile bigger than the rainbow and most importantly...you're making breakfast. Usually I make breakfast and you cook for lunch and dinner." he paused. "So what's going on?"
Saladin just smiled." Nothing, son,"
"When did you come home last night?" asked Helia after a while.
"Late." was the only answer Saladin gave the boy. He put a glass of orange juice in front of Helia.
"You were with her, weren't you?" Helia asked taking a sip from his glass.
"Yes, Helia, I was with her. Do you have a problem with that?"
"No sir." Helia said, raising his hands in defence." But aren't you going to tell me at least her name? Please?" he asked hopefully, making puppy eyes at Saladin.
"No, you will have to wait 'till tonight and you should think of something else that will make you get some information from me. The puppy eyes aren't working anymore."
"Dammit!" Helia swore quietly.
"I heard that." Saladin called over his shoulder as he walked to oven. He took the frying pan from there and walked back to the table and put some eggs into the boy's plate.
"What are you doing today?" asked Saladin as he put some of the eggs in his plate and sat down on the chair opposite Helia.
"You know that my friends are going to stay in Magix for the summer," Helia waited before his grandfather nodded and then continued," and since they're staying we are going to go to the beach, then the girls are going shopping," Saladin rolled his eyes and muttered "Girls" ," and the boys and I are going to play some basketball." Helia paused to eat some more of his breakfast and then asked," When is your girlfriend coming?"
"At seven o'clock. Be sure to be here before seven." Saladin pointed his finger at Helia.
"Okay." Helia rolled his eyes and started to get up. "Bye."
"You're ready?!" said Saladin and glanced at the empty plate of his grandson.
"Yeah, I'm not an old man, you know. Bye." said Helia and quickly made his way out of the kitchen.
"That really offended me, you know." said Saladin smiling. He heard Helia laughing as he put on his trainers. "Kids," He mumbled when he heard the front door slam behind Helia. Then glanced at the clock on the wall opposite him, it was almost time. He finished his breakfast and then cleaned the dishes. After that he went upstairs to his bedroom to get ready for the date with the woman that held his heart.
Xxxxxxx
With Helia
"Come on Flora, We're going to be late!" Helia called.
"Just give me ten more minutes?" She said from inside her room. "That's all I need Heels,"
Helia sighed as he paced out side the door, He was already nervous enough without Flora taking forever.
"How long does it take to shower and put some jeans on?" He asked.
"I was suppost to put jeans on," Flora asked.
"That's it I'm coming in," Helia called.
Helia opened the door, revealing Flora with nothing but a bra and some panties.
"HELIA!" She shrieked.
"AHH, I'm sorry," He stuttered. "Weren't you suppost to be getting ready at my grandpa's?"
He turned away, his breathing not shifting back into its usual pattern.
"Oh, Sorry." She mumbled. "Helia could you… go...please?"
"S-s-ure,"
He stepped out of her room, into the lounge. Sitting at the table there waiting for Flora to finally make her appearance. Right on queue Flora stepped out, a baby blue over night bag in hand, Also rose read cheeks.
"I'm ready, Sorry I took so long," She whimpered.
"Its ok, I didn't mean to walk in on you… you know like that," He muttered awkwardly.
He felt the blood rushing to his cheeks.
"You look cute when you blush," Flora told him touching his red cheek.
"Cute?" He asked, raising his eyebrows.
"Adorable?" She tried again.
"Handsome?" Helia grinned.
"I like that one," He told her pulling her to his chest.
"My Helia is always handsome,"
Helia pulled her lips to his, after kissing for a good minute they heard someone clear their throat.
"H-h-hey Tech," Helia said rubbing his neck in embarrassment.
"Maybe you should have knocked before going into Flora's room," Tecna hinted.
"I,erm" He stuttered.
"Tecna, leave him," Flora scolded; taking Helia's hand. "I'll see you tomorrow 'kay?"
"Goodbye, have fun," She said grinning.
Flora grabbed her coat, then pulled Helia out of the door.
"Come on, your Grandpa will be waiting," Flora said putting a helmet on. Before being lifted onto Helia's bike.
"Be sure not to fall asleep this time, okay?" Helia asked, with a hint of amusement playing on his handsome features while Flora rolled her eyes.
Helia pulled up onto the Drive of his grandpa's beach house.
It had two floors and a beautiful view of the beach. The sun was slowly setting on the Horizon.
"Oh Helia It's so cute!!" Flora Squeeled.
"I'm glad you think so," Helia said; smiling. Then the smile faded. "You ready? I'm not,"
"Helia I'm sure everything will be fine," Flora encouraged.
"Yeah, maybe you're right," Helia said taking his helmet off.
"I'm always right, now come on I want to see inside," Flora urged.
"Grandpa we're here," Helia called into the house.
"I'm in the kitchen," Saladin called.
When they stepped into the kitchen, Flora greeted Saladin.
"Good Afternoon professor,"
"Ah Flora Its good to see you, how was your journey? He asked smiling. "Are you hungry?"
"What the Hell Is that?" Helia asked, pointing at the chef's hat sat on the top of his head.
"Helia!" Flora scolded thumping him.
