We were back in our house, I sat on the couch across from my mom. I was Alek free for at least half an hour. "Mom, Did Valentina say it was a good idea for me to have children? Or did you want me to have children?"
"Of course I don't want you to have children!" She exclaimed "I don't even want you sleeping with him but all the history, the age Valentina had Jasmine... I just thought 'Hey, I'd rather approve of it now instead of being shocked later' but then I got your thoughts on it, I wouldn't be upset if you had a baby with Alek. I just look at you and your still my little girl, a little different from what I thought but you're still my little girl. I'm glad you are with someone that makes you feel great and treats you right." She sighed "Why so fast though"
"It was a moment that we shared and we knew mom" I smiled remember it, his claws ripping through my back and with the mai powers. The way my claws sunk into his. It was overwhelming "It was the plan that was made for us"
"I get that...but I'm not understand how you couldn't stop and say 'Hey I'm too young for this'" Her hands flew up in the air.
"It wasn't like we were about to have sex mom! It was like we knew it was us. Only us. Everything was about us, Sorry that you were off on some date!" The words just came out "While I was deciding that I am in LOVE with Alek. I want to be Mrs. Petrov"
"What's wrong with being Miss King for a little while longer" She asked keeping it together.
"Nothings wrong with it at all. I'm telling you I am not your little girl anymore. I'm the Uniter that took her mate for the rest of her life." I looked at her in the eye shifting forms "I'm mai"
"I know you are, but you're also my little girl. You have been mai your whole life and to be honest I've never seen such careless behavior"
"Remember that friend that died that I kissed?" I took a breath "I killed him when I transformed because I kissed him"
"I'm sorry"
"That was pretty careless right? Kissing some guy I met at the club and killing him. Then running away from someone trying to kill me, only to die. I came home though after they told me because I was scared. Every night I came home because I need you. I need you now too, I don't need you to tell me I should have waited when I could be kidnapped right now, and be thrown in a lake never to see anyone again. I could be seperated from him at any time to keep me from dying again. That's why it happened, that's why we did it when we did because even though we have these lives to live. We could die any time" I spoke slow, but my voice was still shakey at certain parts.
"So you bonded with him because you wanted each other to know before it was too late that you belonged to each other?" She made it sound so romantic "This is like a TV series sponsered by ABC family, you know Secret life"
"Mom, no ones sleeping around, getting pregnant or any thing along the lines"
"Switched at birth?" My mom watched too much T.V.
"I have to go" I smiled at her, putting on my black jacket that was stylish.
"Have fun!" She said and I heard her start to cry. I wish she knew this meant she knew more about me than anyone else in the world. I was stopped at a red light by a man in a coat. Creepy.
"Excuse me" I said, hoping he would move but he didn't. I tried to get an "Empathy hit" off of him but all I felt was guilt and relief.
"You've grown up" He said, and I covered my mouth with both of my hands tears starting to pour out of my eyes.
"It's not you" I said shaking my head "Dad!" He gave us no time for anything, not even small talk.
"Take me to the head quarters now" He said it like Paul would. I started running a little, him following me. When we got there I was out of breath once more.
"We have to take the stairs." It was late night and the Elevator was locked up again. When we finally got to room 1803 I opened the door. Alek jumped down from his spot on the counter kissing me then noticing the other person with me.
"Who's this?"
"If I was an assasian you'd be dead" My dad said, I looked at him with utter shock. No way. Alek looked at him and shook his hand.
"Nice to meet you, now who are you?"
"Chloe's dad" He said, he was looking at Alek like he had stolen the six year old girl that my dad had left. Alek was feeling a little be awkward seeing as he just openingly stuck his tounge down my throat in front of my dad. Now, how did that hand shake feel. I felt a little smug, Alek noticed. As my dad went further into the apartment Alek bent down to my ear.
"Thanks for the warning" He whispered "Now I'm unprepared for impressing your father."
"How do you think I feel? My dad's been gone for ten years and he comes back and your trying to make out with me. Now he probably thinks we are lacking seriousness in the situation we are in" I was flipping out about this.
"Where is the leader?" My dad asked "We'll talk about you and my daughters relationship later, young man" It made me mad he was talking to Alek like that.
"You can't walk in after missing most of my life and act like you have any authority when it comes to my relationship with Alek" I said "Don't walk in on my life pretending it even maters to you anyway.. If anything I did mattered to you, you would have told me what I was. Or at least told mom because you clearly knew!"
"Can I help you?" Valentina walked out of the back room. She had a right to judge the relationship, not my dad and I had just met her a few months ago. My mom had the right to do the most judging and overall she seemed to slightly get it now.
"I'm Mr. King, Chloe's dad. I just wanted to meet you." He turned to me "I'm your dad I can do whatever the hell I want to"
"I don't think you have the rights to do that anymore" Valentina stepped in, my dad was about to get his feelings hurt "Alek and Chloe are together, they will always be together. He's done a lot more in protecting your daughter than any of us. Now, you can get out of my house like you did Chloe's for ten years or you can try to help us. If that's why you are here"
"It is why I'm here" He said and then Valentina took him to her back room. I looked at Alek.
"Why does it feel like we are just telling people what we've wanted to say forever"
"Because we are, and while we are doing that: I love you, Chloe King" He said pulling me to the living room to sit on the couch while we waited for Jasmine. It was a training night again.
"I love you more" I said to him getting a little closer to him.
"And I love you most, blah blah. C'mon we got to go now" Jasmine ruined the tiny moment and we walked off to training like the new days we were creating instead of the old days.
