Chapter 130: heart to heart
Kenny
"Whoa there!" I breathed out along with a winded laugh as Niko slammed into me. He had his hands wrapped tightly around my shoulders, like we didn’t see each other three days back. I Returned the hug happily because I loved that despite the fact that he was an enigma, he never lets that affect how he shows emotions and I loved that so much about him.
"Missed me?" I asked and he nodded eagerly before going ahead to tell me how the last three days was spent at my mother’s place.
"Have you seen Jason and Rory?" I asked and he nodded, the grin still dancing across his face. I ruffled his hair again and huffed him some more and I held my face after pulling out of the hug.
"You smell like Jason." He breathed out, eyes a little widened and a small grin at the sides of his lips. I let out a small huff, completely unsure of how to actually go about this.
"I do, champ." I ended up admitting before leaning closer. "You noticed?" I continued and he nodded, pushing his dark hair out of his face.
"Of course! It’s now mixed with yours and dad’s. I noticed this same scent on Jason and on dad as well. Does this... does this mean we’re all a family? And no one would leave? Not you or Jason, right?" He continued, eyes earnest and I let out a small huff. My mind felt a little heavy, what Niko had just asked was very significant and I didn’t want to give him an answer for the fun of it. I didn’t want to answer on Jason’s behalf but Jason had told us he didn’t want to leave us anymore. That’s basically what Niko is asking right now, yes?
I took Niko’s hand in mine before speaking. "You’re right, champ. We’re all a family and no one’s ever leaving." I finally responded and Niko was so happy, he threw himself in my arms for another hug.
"Oh my god, I need to go tell Anna!" He gushed then he was out of my office in a flash. I let out a fond sound as I shook my head and made go return to the site I was previously working on.
After about thirty minutes, Anna arrived, pausing in the door for a moment. I dropped my hands from the laptop and moved my chair backwards as I spoke.
