Woot! I'm here again with an update! Happy Holidays my dear readers! With this break from university, I'll use this chance to write chapters for GRAY WINTER, I do hope I won't encounter some writer's block while doing so :)
Gray and Juvia's relationship is heating up. I guess I should give a lime warning? ;)
GRAY WINTER
Chapter 25: The King and His Queen
Staring at the ceiling with her eyes that reflecting the colour of a troubled ocean, Juvia let out a sigh and sink deeper in the bath tub. In the last three years of her life with the Blakes, she never felt frustrated and unsatisfied like this, but now, she lifts her hand that is resting in between her thighs earlier, pleasing herself like this isn't enough anymore.
After drying her freshly bathed body, Juvia left the bath in her bedroom and go to the walk-in closet to get some clothes, putting on some teal knitted sweater and white skirt. She then went to her vanity table to brush her still damp blue hair. Her mind wanders again to what transpires in her kitchen only moments ago, at the feel of his toned body pressed against hers, his hips against her rear, his cold breathe hitting her ears. What would happen if their son didn't step in or if they are all alone in this house?
Well, he would have taken her there with hunger. He'd run his fingers to the smooth skin of her creamy thighs, nipping at her nape and shoulder as he lifts the ends of her midnight blue sleeping dress, and there between her sexy thighs, he would have…
"Shit." He cursed, as the sound of something dropping on the water met his ears, pulling him back to the reality, out of his lustful imagination about the mother of his son.
Gray lifts his soaking wet pants with a scowl in his face, mumbling about idiot and spacing out. Gavin beside him tilted his head while Gray in response lifted a brow, his son is definitely is thinking of something. He remembered Juvia in the past would also tilt her head while in thought.
"Gavin, Papa finished bathing, 'et's go!" said the child wondering what is it his Papa talking on about,
"Papa's pants were wet," he just said simply, the child looks at the soaking wet pants,
"Gavin would lent Papa pants but Papa too big," Gavin said giving emphasis on the word 'big',
Gray can't help but to smile at Gavin before pinching the boy's nose, "You're too cute!"
"Why don't Papa just let it dry and play with Gavin," the boy asks,
"Then Papa would be naked," Gray Fullbuster is bothered about decency for the first time,
Gavin again tilted his head, "Yes, Papa naked" he answered as if being naked isn't a big deal,
Gray opens the cabinet, and pulls a white towel from it, "At times like this I wish that fire freak was here," he tsked, "Maybe Lyon have a spare," he mumbled.
Finally stepping out of her bedroom after her early cold shower, she walks into the hall combining the dining and the living area and is greeted by a very naked, dripping wet Gavin running around the house while giggling so happily. Juvia was supposed to scold Gavin because of running while his body being wet when Gray calls the boy, a towel wrapped around his waist while another towel on top of his wet jet black hair.
"Hey, Gavin come back 'ere!" he said also running and dripping wet like his son, should Juvia scold him too?
Her eyes went to the beads of water from his wet hair that falls to his toned naked chest and down to his beautifully sculpted abs, aching to run her fingers to his toned body, her eyes travels up only to meet those dark blue eyes that were also looking at her, caught her staring at him with such malice in her eyes.
Gray, watching her pale cheeks changes into a rosy pink shade as her lustful cerulean eyes travels down his toned body leaving a hot trail in his skin without her touching him. He felt his body heating up again even after the icy cold shower.
"Don't look at me like that Juvia," his voice rough in a whisper, "If you look at me like that I can no longer restrain myself and…" he paused, "you wouldn't want it especially when there's audiences," just then that she noticed Lyon and Chelia watching them with sly grins on their faces in the living room.
Gavin's door opens and the small boy's head peeks out, "Papa?" his little brows knitted as if complaining to his Papa about him being slow,
"Coming," Gray said and took a last glance at Juvia who is now looking away at him, still had a faint blush on her cheeks, and then he disappeared to their son's bedroom.
Now alone to meet the Vastia couple in the living room, Juvia with her cheeks stained in a faint blush sat with them with a nervous smile, "So… what are your plans for today, Lyon-san, Chelia-san?" she opens a topic but the two didn't responds and looks at her intently instead,
"Juvia, we just want you to know that you can always trust us in taking care of Gavin for some time," Chelia said which puzzled Juvia,
"That's right." Lyon agreed with his flashy smile, "You and Gray needs time alone," he added,
"No, you two are wrong, Gray and I are nothing like that, we're… we're not in a relationship," she reasoned but the two kept suggesting about resort names and tourist places for honeymoon.
The chatter stops at the sound of doorbell, Juvia used that chance to get away to the couple and their love match making. Juvia wasn't expecting for anyone at the moment so she isn't sure who is it outside, walking to the mini lacrima screen that is attached to the mage cam in the house gate, showing who it is standing in front of the gate.
"Oh, Mavis!" she exclaimed happily, looking at the amber eyed guy in the screen.
Gray is wearing white pants with violet linings and design that Lyon had lent him and violet button up shirt with white pocket, he bent down to help Gavin put on his clothes. His eyes then went to the windows of his son's bedroom, even though the sun is already up the drapes were still untied, he walks to one of his windows to tie them up but the little boy shouted, "Papa don't!" fear reflected in his expressive dark blue eyes,
"What's the problem little guy?" he asks,
"Bad guy, Gavin saw a bad guy standing there," the boy said, his little hands gripping on his Russian furred hat,
Gray with seriousness in his face then asks, "Did you tell Mama?" the child nods, climbing his knees and lifting his little arms to him. "What did she say?" he asks again, pulling his son into his arms,
"Mama said it's just a nightmei and bad guys can't enter our house, but Gavin is so scared!" he said hugging onto his father,
Gray didn't respond and just caress the small back of his son, his eyes focused on that window Gavin pointed earlier. Every corner of Juvia's house have water element on it, from the wall water lamps outside to the bubble panels inside, giving Juvia an access to monitor and guard the whole house.
"Don't be scared, Gavin." Gray finally spoke, "Papa and Mama will always protect you."
Gray with Gavin on his arms went out of the kid's room, his eyes went to Lyon who is still sitting on the couch in the living room, Chellia on the other hand is near the window, peeking outside,
"Who is it?" Lyon asks his wife, curious of who might be this person for Juvia to be so happy,
"Shh!" Chellia hushed his husband, "Who is that guy?" she asks particularly no one, Gray looks at Lyon who also looks at him at the same time but before the two could speak out what's on their head, the front door opens and Juvia with the good looking tall guy went in.
"Please come in, Dylan-san," Juvia gestured her hand,
"Thank you, Avi." Said Dylan,
'What is this guy doing here?' shouted his mind, watching the two exchanging light conversation in the front door. The way Dylan touches Juvia's shoulder didn't go unnoticed in his dark blue eyes that is flaming with jealousy at the moment.
"Uncle Dylan!" Gavin jumps down from Gray to welcome Dylan who bents down and hugs the little boy,
The feeling of someone elbowing his side snapped his gaze from the front door, looking to the white haired mage.
"Is that him? The guy who helped her?" Lyon asks,
"Yeah, that's him." He answered, his eyes again on Juvia and Dylan who is now walking to them,
"This is Dylan-san, Dylan-san this are my close friends," Juvia introduces Dylan to the Vastia couple,
"Hi, hi! I'm Chelia Vastia, Juvia-chan told me about you and your kind hearted family," Chelia greeted the guy cheerfully,
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs Vastia," Dylan said with a slight bow, then looking at the white haired guy beside him, "Good day to you, Mr Lyon Vastia, I heard of your reputation as a great ice mage,"
"Oh, thanks. Nice to meet you," Lyon said to the gentleman, offering a hand shake in which the other guy gladly shook,
"We meet again, Gavin's Papa," Dylan said with a gentle smile,
"Yeah, Gavin's Uncle." Gray said with a blank expression on his face,
Lyon and Chelia both swallowed just watching the two man face off, the atmosphere getting heavier by the minute. Juvia seemed unaffected, too happy to see a friend whom understands her just like Gajeel does. She excused herself for a moment and go to the kitchen to prepare some snacks.
"Uncle Dylan, Lookie-lookie!" Gavin pulls on the ends of Dylan's coat, on his other hand was a mini pull cart made of ice where a large snow globe is placed,
"Wow that is very pretty," Dylan commented honestly, looking at the magical snow globe in which the transparent sphere is made of ice, enclosing a miniature castle of ice and water while water-iced mist is used for atmosphere.
Gray's expression softened as his gaze went to the large snow globe which encloses the scenery of his and Juvia's float as a King and Queen in the Fantasia Parade many years ago.
"Eh? Why are you guys standing? Why don't you sit?" Juvia asked, a tray of snack and drinks on her hands,
Lyon and Chelia only realizes that they are still standing since the guy with amber eyes came in Juvia's home and sat on the couch beside each other. Dylan sat beside Juvia while Gray with an irritated look on his face sat on the single seater sofa.
"You should have told me that you'd visit, Dylan-san," Juvia said,
"Well, I didn't really planned to go here in Magnolia today, Mr Henry sent me a letter saying that they are interested with my designs and would like to meet with me," he explained, "and since I'm here in Magnolia, I thought I'd visit you and Gavin," he smiled at the little boy and ruffles his jet black hair,
"Mr Henry of the mage construction guild?" she asked and Dylan nodded. Juvia knew Dylan was really good at designing houses and overseeing its construction process, but she didn't expect a mage guild would be interested in his designs. "Wow, that is wonderful, I wish you good luck, Dylan-san,"
Lyon and Chelia look at Gray as if there's a steam of anger seeping through his head. Gray remained silent and just watches Juvia and Dylan converse with each other, his arms above his chest.
"It's a good thing that I thought of refilling my fridge, I will prepare a special lunch for all of us," Juvia announced happily,
Gray shifted on his seat and was to open his mouth to protest but Dylan spoke, "I am sorry, Juvia but I have a scheduled lunch meeting with the mage construction guild, maybe some other time," he said with an apologetic smile,
"'unch meetin?" Gavin repeated the word with a tilt of his head, Dylan chuckles and again ruffles the boy's black hair,
" Okay… some other time then," Juvia's shoulders dropped,
"Sorry, Juvia but we also need to get back before lunch time too," Chelia said beside his husband Lyon,
"Oh no, you guys too?" Juvia looks at the Vastia couple with a pout,
"We promised Yuka and Tobi that we will meet them before lunch at the station," Chelia explained,
"We don't want to disturb you guys any longer, plus I know that Gray here is dying to have an alone-time with you Juvia-chan," Lyon teased which made both Juvia and Gray go red,
"S-Shut up, you shitty butt flasher!" Gray retorted,
"Ohoh! If I remembered it right it was you who was flashing your butt around," Lyon mocked,
"Stop it, you two are both butt flasher." Chelia said in a dead pan tone,
Juvia smiled while watching the two ice-make mages argue at each other, looking at her side she saw Dylan staring at her, the guy smiled and then asks in a low tone,
"I have watched some of the recent mage news, Avi," he started,
"You watched the mage news?" she asked, knowing Dylan Blake wasn't a fan of anything mage related,
"Well, I did, in Dalton's lacrima." The guy smiled as if reading what Juvia is thinking, "is it true that you and Gavin's father is… an item?" he asked, his voice unsure, a little afraid,
Juvia slightly laughed, "Dylan-san, you sound like an interviewer." She said and the shy guy beside her had a stained blush in his cheeks,
"Did I?" he asked and also laughed with Juvia,
Gray only watches the two chats happily, felt a stinging pain in his chest while doing so, wishing that it was him who can make her laugh like that. Was he able to make her happy in the past?
"Say good bye to Uncle Lyon and Auntie Chelia, Gavin" Juvia said to the boy who was holding on to her hand, standing outside the gate with Gray,
"Bye-Bye!" Gavin waved at the two mage,
"Aww, my love I want to have a baby too!" the young Mrs Vastia cooed to her husband,
"I will give you as many as you want, my love…" Lyon pulls Chelia closer to him, Gray gagging on the background, "Though I doubt if we'd make a baby of our own before little Gavin would have a baby sister or a baby brother,"
"Oi!" Gray snapped, Juvia gasping at Lyon's statement, Dylan has no reaction while the innocent Gavin just waves at the two,
"I agree to that, love… I could only wish it would be a baby sister," Chelia said waving at them
"We will visit again sometime, Juvia-chan." Lyon said as he opens a car door for his wife,
"Those two are really..." Gray mumbled while watching Lyon's mage car run fast,
"I'll be going too, Avi." Dylan said standing in front of his non-mage car,
"Take care, Dylan-san, I wish I could show you around but I need to take care of Gavin," Juvia smiled at the man,
"It's okay, Avi," He smiled back, "This place is too surreal and amazing for a non-mage folk like me, but I can manage by my own. I think I know now why Dalton likes it so much,"
"I think, Dalton-san have influenced you a little bit while I'm gone," she giggled,
"Nah, he didn't." opening the car's door, "It's only now that I have become interested with mage stuff and it not because of Dalton, it's because of you."
"Dylan-san, I… I…" Juvia can't find the words to respond to that, she knew of Dylan's feelings for her since the guy have confessed to him a couple of times in the past,
"I know, and I'm not giving up. Bye, Avi," and then he went inside his car and left her still speechless outside the gate of her house.
Dylan Blake was a good man, he has done more than enough for her and Gavin in these three years of her hiding from the mage world and for that she responded to it by helping his family and being honest to him. She thought it would felt bad if his confession to her will be left unanswered and so she respectfully rejected him, assuming that he'd turn down and be just friends with her but the eldest Blake just told her that he will not give up and wait until she loves him back.
"He's just wasting his time." Said Gray, his words making Juvia look at him,
"Wasting his…" Juvia sighed, preparing to tell the ice mage that he is being rude, but Gray spoke again,
"That guy can try and try to court you but you can never love him back," Gray take a step closer to Juvia, their eyes locked with each other, "Because you love me," he said to her straight, with confidence.
"Gray," his name left her mouth in a whisper, looking up to those dark blue eyes, not bothered by how their faces a breathe away from each other,
"And that I love you, Juvia." Gray said also in a whisper, his hands on her elbows while looking down to her luscious lips wanting nothing but to taste it's tempting sweetness,
Juvia bit her lower lip, unaware to how that small action affects Gray. Her cheeks flushing from hearing a confession from the only guy she ever love in her lifetime, while her heart beating so loud in her ribcage.
"Aw, they are so sweet,"
"Is that Gray Fullbuster? So the rumour about him living with Juvia Lockser is true?"
"Yes, I think it's true since they already have a child,"
"Ah, yes, their son is like a duplicate copy of his father,"
The sound of people around them chatting to themselves as if the topic of their conversation isn't there really ruined the mood for the two, Juvia back away a little from Gray who just looked pissed off at the curious people around them,
"These people only see mages for their entertainment," he mumbled to himself,
"Enteiteimint?" Gavin repeated the foreign word with a tilt of his head, his voice catching the attention of his parents as if the two forgotten he was there,
"It means something that gives people interest and to amuse them," Gray supplied to his son, then he turned to look at Juvia who seemed redder than a while ago, "So why won't we give them some entertainment?" he said and in a swift movement, he swooped Juvia on to his arms and walk inside the gate of her house before she could react,
"G-Gray! Put me down, people are looking," she said her cheeks going redder if that's possible,
Gray didn't say anything and just gave her a lopsided smile, Gavin following them while clapping his little hands, snowflakes again present above them but his parents could now careless if the house caked with ice.
The whole day was spent with Gray and Gavin playing in a nearby park, teaching Gavin ice-make magic little by little by making a simple snow ball and decorating them to be a snowman while Juvia just sat on the bench on one side of the park, watching the father and son play with each other without a care in the world. Gavin can only make a snow ball as small as his foot but given his age of three it is an amazing feat. The people around them watched the two in amazement while other kids played on the park that now looks like an ice skating rink.
Now driving back home, Juvia looks at the sleeping little boy in the back seat, tired form playing. Her cerulean orbs then went to the little boy's feet, remembering the boy complained about his shoes being tight. Juvia take note of buying her son a new pair of shoes, Gavin seemed to grow so fast, 'Maybe Erza-san or Bisca-san knows a good mage school' she thought.
"What are you thinking? You seemed to be in a deep thought," said Gray while skilfully driving,
"Oh, I'm just thinking of how Gavin grow up so fast when it's just like recently when he learnt how to walk," she smiled warmly, looking to the view outside of the car's window.
Gray looks at Juvia for a moment before returning her eyes on the road, "Yeah, time flies so fast," he said with a sincere smile but regret flashed in his dark blue eyes. Regret of not having to see his son as a baby to a toddler, to hear his first words, his baby talks, to cradle his small body into his arms while rocking his son in a lullaby.
Putting the baskets and other stuff they brought to the park inside Juvia's house, Gray minus his white coat exits the kitchen and walks to Juvia who is carrying their sleeping son. He chuckled, "He's a heavy sleeper, isn't he?"
Juvia also chuckled, "Oh, yes, he is… just like his father." Her words just flow through her mouth like a river before she could stop that last sentence. For a moment Gray's eyes looks a little shock to hear her talking about anything related to their past then a spark of something dangerous appear on those beautiful dark blue eyes.
His arms reaching for the child in her arms, "Let's lay him down on his bed," the water mage just nodded to him and gave him the little boy, brushing his arm against her breasts by accident. Gray's body went stiff at the feel of her soft large breasts against his arm, his eyes searching for hers but Juvia won't look at him, acting as if she didn't notice or felt it. She then went to open the door to Gavin's bedroom, her expression blank but her cheeks stained with pink blush.
Gray laid the boy down the bed and pulls the thick blanket over his small body, brushing his knuckles against his soft chubby cheeks as he slept, "Sleep well, son." He mumbled before standing tall and exiting the boy's room. His eyes went to Juvia standing behind the dining table, arranging the left overs to be kept in the fridge,
"Thank you for bringing us in the park, Gavin really had fun." Juvia said,
"You don't have to thank me; you know I'd do anything for you and Gavin," Gray walks to a couch in the living, "Where did I put that?" he mumbled looking for his white coat,
"Here, your coat." Reaching her hand with his neatly folded coat to him,
"Thanks, Juvia." He looks down to the neatly folded coat now in his hands before looking back at Juvia, "I'll be going now," his hands on the door knob of the front door,
"Wait, Gray." She said before Gray could even open the front door,
Looking over his shoulder, his eyes went again to her beautiful face, the face of her Queen, "What is it, Juvia?" he asks,
"I… do you want some iced coffee?" she asked as if she's not sure herself what she's asking,
"If it isn't too much to ask," he answered with a smile.
Sitting comfortably in the couch, Gray watches Juvia moves precisely in the kitchen through the bubble panels. After a few moments, Juvia walks to him with a tall glass of iced coffee in her hand, giving it to him,
"Thanks," then took a sip, savouring the taste of the creamy coffee that only Juvia could make. He really missed this coffee, not even Mira could make a coffee like this. Looking to the woman beside him, he caught him staring at him again, particularly to his lips. Her cerulean eyes had a lustful spark on them, her luscious lips slightly parted, her cheeks blushed but not from embarrassment but from arousal, and his body reacting to it as if like he is moth dancing to the flame, his body getting caught in fire, he know he'll be burn but cannot turn away to the beauty laid in front of him, 'Oh, Mavis. This woman is making me crazy,' he thought to himself.
"I told you, didn't I?" he said in a whisper, leaning closer to Juvia, "Don't look at me like that or I'll…"
"Unfair…" the word slipped from her lips, their eyes locked in a staring contest,
"Unfair?" he asks, their lips a breathe away from each other,
"You tell me not to look at you like that when you're doing the same thing," was her answer, leaning a bit closer and slightly brushing her lips to his as she spoke,
"Juvia." He whispered before their lips collided into a torrid kiss with so much urgency and need. He suckled her lower lip, making Juvia gasp and taking that chance to plunge his hot tongue in her moist mouth.
His large hands on the curve of Juvia's hips, pushing her into the couch. Her hands on Gray's back, gripping on the material of his shirt, pulling him with her while their hungry kisses continued. From her hip his hand slid inside her knitted sweater, the tip of his fingers cold against her heated skin, his lips leaving hers and she wanted to protest but whatever she wanted to say became forgotten when his sexy lips met her neck while his hand cups her breast.
Juvia let out a gasp when Gray nipped at her neck a little too hard, she's quite sure that it will leave a mark. Pushing himself up, Gray fisted his hand on the ends of her sweater, pushing them up and revealing her black lacy bra. Cerulean eyes met dark blue ones, with a sexy smirk Gray pressed a kiss on the valley of her breast before unhooking her bra, and taking them off from her large breasts that bounced from the movement.
Not wasting any moment, Gray licked on one erected nipple, swirling his tongue on it before sucking it, his other hand fondling the other breast, rolling the hardened tip between his fingers. He heard a faint moan from Juvia as her hands running up and down his back, urging him to continue what he is doing. Releasing her reddened nipple with a pop, he then went to give her other nipple the same treatment until he noticed the way she rubs her thighs together.
Her eyes that were closed, opened when she felt Gray stopped working on her breasts, curious her lustful eyes watches him as he kneeled on the carpeted floor and he parted her thighs, "Gray, Ohh!"
"Shit, you're so wet, Juvia." He kissed her inner thigh, lifting her leg on his shoulder, his hand in between her thighs, rubbing her clothed core. He slid a finger on the side of her lacy black underwear and pulls it on one side, his eyes fixated on her wet pinkish folds.
She lifted her lower body when she felt him pulls down her skirt along with her soaking wet underwear, then he went back to her, parting her thighs wider for his eyes to see. Suddenly, she felt insecure that Gray might find her unattractive because of the marks on her tummy she got from being pregnant to Gavin, Juvia pulls down her sweater to hide her body.
"Don't hide your body to me, Juvia," Gray said, pulling away her hand that is holding on her sweater to his lips, kissing her hand before laying it on her side and start kissing and nipping on her lower tummy where those birthing marks are, "These marks doesn't make you less attractive but the opposite," he kisses her there again while his eyes connected to hers, "in my eyes you were my Queen, my very beautiful Queen," then he lowered his lips, hands on her inner thighs, licking on her wet folds up to her clit before suckling on it. He again look up to her blissful face, his fingers opening her folds then thrusting his tongue inside, tasting her addictive juice.
Juvia moaned, her fingers brushing through Gray's jet black hair, moving her hip against his skilful lips, her other hand squeezing on her breast, "Mmhh… Gray," she called, and he stops lapping her wet core.
Gray then stood from the carpeted floor and leaned on the couch above Juvia again, his hands unbuttoning his shirt and then throwing it across the room, Juvia on the other hand was busy unbuckling Gray's belt and in no time, he was naked.
Hovering above Juvia, Gray kisses her jaw and ears, as her hands feeling every dip and curve of his abs, her finger nails slightly scraping at her taut skin, and then her hand reaches his rock hard length. "Juviahh…" he groaned as he felt Juvia strokes him up and down, brushing her thumb on the tip a little before she pumps him again.
His lips found hers again, Gray positioned between Juvia's thighs, grabbing his hard member in his hand and aligning it to her wet folds but a memory came across his mind making him stiff, the memory of that night three years ago when he – a monster raped her and treated her like a whore, their last sexual contact. "Juvia–"
"Gray, I need you now." Juvia interrupts whatever he was about to say, like him the same memory flashes in her mind. Unlike what she expect before she met Gray again in the Oak Town, she doesn't felt disgust or discomfort doing these things with him again, instead she felt so horny as if his body is aflame, burning her body with just his skin touching hers. 'To hell with it, I'll think about it later.'
Yeah, yeah, how dare me to end the chapter like this. Sorry, I'll just update faster. Please don't get too angry with me?
Omake! Gavin Winter!
Gavin's dark blue eyes sparkled as his small hands lifted the story book Uncle Dylan has made for him, "Whoah! It's so pwitee!" and then he sat on the couch and turn it to the first page which had an illustration of a beautiful Queen, a prince and a knight riding a white horse.
"Hey, that is some neat pict magic you get there," Auntie Chelia commented as she peek in my new story book,
"Pict?" Uncle Dylan repeated the word which I assumed he don't know of, like me I don't know this 'pict' thingy, "I'm sorry but I am not that knowledgeable in mage terms," Uncle Dylan explained,
"It is a type of magic that allows its user to create drawings and illustrations in various ways," Papa explained, he was slouched in the single seater sofa while his hands in his pockets, Papa is not smiling is he mad?
"So it was a type of magic, but this story book is not from that." Uncle Dylan brushes his fingers on my new story book's edges, "I made it, and I drew them."
"Really?" Auntie Chelia exclaims, and Uncle Dylan nodded,
"Well that is… some amazing shit." It was Uncle Lyon standing beside Papa, Auntie Chelia elbowed him I'm not sure why, I looked down to the story book again, there are letters but I still can't read them,
"Uncle Dylan read Stowee book?" I asks as I blink my eyes, I knew when I do that they'll give what I want, teeheehee!
"Sure, Young Master Gavin," Uncle Dylan smiled, "So here goes…"
Once upon a time in a faraway land there is a beautiful castle on top of a hill, surrounded by forest and mountains, with the river flowing nearby. There lived a Queen with eyes that could rival the beauty of deepest oceans, and a young brilliant prince. Then a catastrophe came in her kingdom, the Queen became so sad that the skies sympathizes her and cried with her, making the whole kingdom showered by never ending rain.
"Why Queen sad?" Gavin asks, interrupting Uncle Dylan from reading, his little fingers pointing at the drawing of a Queen with tears,
"Gavin Baby, let Uncle Dylan read so that you'll know," Mama said putting another platter full of snacks in the coffee table before sitting beside me, she call me baby again, I though inwardly as I pouts my lips.
Uncle Dylan turns again the page and a drawing of the earlier colourful kingdom became so grey and stiff,
The whole kingdom is frozen into the ground, its people left the place for living there became so difficult as strong winter storm fell there, even the animals in the forest left, leaving the once beautiful paradise cold, sad and empty. The beautiful Queen, abducted in the castle cannot do anything as her throne was now conquered by a cold, ruthless, bad mage."
"Oi, oi, oi!" Papa interrupts Uncle Dylan, he looks mad as his finger pointed at the drawing in my story book where a cold, ruthless, bad mage is drawn.
"Calm down, Gray! Let him continue!" Uncle Lyon said with a cocky smirk, "This is interesting." I heard him mumble,
"Uncle Dylan why cowd, rootless, bad mage has no cape, no shirt?" asks me as I tilted my head, a villain should have cape and shirt, right?
"Oh, that is because he had this absurd, very disturbing habit of stripping." Uncle Dylan explained clearly with a kind smile,
"That's it buddy! Come here I'll rip that face along with your book!" Papa stands from his seat, looking very annoyed,
"Papa angry?" I asks,
"No, Papa is not… angry." Mama looks at Papa at the last word, "Now let Uncle Dylan continue reading,"
The young Prince, being a brilliant Prince that he is managed to escape from the cold, ruthless, bastard mage…
"Did you just call me bastard?" Papa gritted his teeth,
"Duh, he called you cold, ruthless and bad but you didn't react," Uncle Lyon laughed,
"Boys be silent let Dylan continue."Auntie Chelia said,
…And seek help outside the kingdom, but nobody wants to help him to defeat the cold, ruthless, bad and bastard mage for he is so evil that everybody is frightened just look at his stripped body,
"Hey!" Papa snapped angrily,
But there is a wandering strong knight with his white horse that heard the prince. He approached the young Prince and told him that he is willing to help as his life's sole purpose was to eliminate all evil in the world.
Papa snorted at the picture of an armoured knight with white cape standing beside the white horse, looking so mighty as the colours were so vibrant with silvers, gold, reds and blues. Uncle Lyon snickered beside him.
With the knight and the young brilliant Prince riding the white horse, they now came back to the frozen kingdom. The knight slayed the cold, ruthless, bad and bastard mage's minions as they went up the castle and reached the throne room where the beautiful Queen is caged in a huge cage made of thick ice. The knight and the cold, ruthless, bad and bastard mage battled, and with the knight's sword of justice the cold ruthless, bad, bastard and stripper mage was defeated. The Queen was freed, and the ice that covers the kingdom disappeared, the dark skies retreated and the sun shone down, reviving its glory. The beautiful Queen, the Prince and the Knight riding a white horse lived there in the peaceful kingdom happily ever after.
"That's the worst children story I have ever heard, full of crap and shit." Papa glared at Uncle Dylan who just remained calm and shrugged his shoulders,
"Papa, Uncle Dylan fighting? Fighting is bad, Mama will be mad." Gavin eyes the men alternately,
Mama sighed and pulls me towards the kitchen, "Let them be, honey let's eat."
