CATHEDRAL'S POV

" Okay, that's enough sugar for tonight." Jason said as he took the empty bowl of ice cream from Samantha's hand.

" Flower, It's your way past bedtime, I'll bathe you and then tuck you in bed." I said and smiled at her.

" Miss Weston, what would you like for breakfast tomorrow?" Juliana asked me.

" Oh, don't worry, I will make the breakfast tomorrow, you can come late tomorrow."

I picked up Samantha and led her into one of the four guest rooms we had.

" Sam, this is your room, we will go out tomorrow and we can buy stuff to decorate it, how does that sound?" I asked as I adjusted the temperature of water.

" Pefect." She said and I failed to miss the tone of sadness in her voice.

" Sweetheart, what's wrong?" I asked her and put her into the bathtub.

" Aunty Cathy, mommy and daddy won't live together anymore." Tears had welled up in her eyes.

" Darling, It will all be alright." I said to her and let out a sigh.

" Love, if you are, just imagine, if you are given to choose between mommy and daddy, who will you choose to live with?" I hated myself for asking this question but this was necessary for me to know.

" Daddy, mommy doesn't love me. She slapped me, mommy slapped me when I said I won't leave daddy-"

" Darling, mommy is just upset flower. She and daddy had a fight. They are just a little busy to see their angel." I cleaned her with coconut scented body wash.

" They love you and so do we." I said.

" Aunty Cathy?"

" Yes love?"

" Can you teach me to paint? Uncle Jay has told me you are a twue aatist."

" Ofcourse sweety, come on let's get you dry." I wrapped her into a fluffy towel and put her on the bed.

I dressed her in a cute and pink night suit with a giraffe on it. I kissed her on forehead and tucked her inside.

I watched her eyes droop and close ultimately.

Samantha was such an angel, she did not deserve to watch her parents like this. I will take care of her, We will.

" Flower retired to bed?" Jason asked looking up from the laptop screen while he sat on our bed.

" Yup, she is really disheartened by all this. No child should go through the pain between their parents."

" Come here Wes, I missed you." He kept the laptop aside and I came and sat next to him.

He turned towards me and his hands slipped around my waist and pulled me into his lap and I could feel his need for me.

His face went into my neck kissing and sucking onto every inch. I threw all my senses and could only feel the love and need for him.

I felt hot, better and beautiful when he touched me.

" Jason" I moaned as his kisses lingered on my jaw reaching till my ears and his hands went under my shirt moving slowly towards my chest. My hands gripped his hairs tightly.

" Let me show you how much I missed you." He whispered huskily as he flipped us on the bed such that he towered onto me.

" Jason, show me. Show me how much you missed me." I leaned in him and whispered.

With the words that left my mouth, he attacked my lips.

And the passionate night continued and I fell asleep in his arms.

__________

I felt a cool breeze on my neck which woke me up, I had been awake for about ten minutes but couldn't move an inch. Jason was sleeping on top me, his hands enclosed my waist preventing me to move and get up, not that I hadn't tried moving.

" Jason, let me go." I whispered bending as I could a little.

"Not in this lifetime." His head rose to look up at me. These are the words that make you believe in love and pull in deeper.

He had been awake all this time. I scowled at him.

" Good morning, someone woke up as godzilla." He said and climbed up to my lips. His gaze on my lips distracting me from my fake-ish anger.

" And you woke up as asleep." I joked back and claimed his lips.

" So, did you plan anything for today?" I asked him.

" Yes, it's kind of a surprise." He smirked at me and got off the bed and disappeared into the bathroom. I reached for my phone beside the bedside, it was 8:23 in the morning.

I used the bathroom and took a shower after Jason came out.

" What would you like for breakfast, dear sir?" I tried to imitate his mother's British accent.

" Hmm.. You know um, how about you?" He said leaning against the counter.

" Alright then, starve yourself." I said and turned to look through the fridge.

" But I would really like you." He husked .

I felt his hands on my hips seeping lower to my thighs.

" Jason stop." I warned and turned around. As I spun, he pushed me into the wall beside the fridge and kissed me ferociously. Passionate, that's how I would describe the moment. His hands worshipped my body.

The bell rang and I pushed him off me blushing feverishly red.

" I will get it." Jason said as he fixed his hair.

I went back and started preparing cheese toast and porridge. I heard some noises from the living room but ignored them for the sake of the porridge.

"Jason, can you wake Samantha?"

No reply.

" Jason?" I turned the gas off and stroded towards the living room.

" Surprise!" Two voices yelled as I entered the living room.

There were white canvases on the wooden stands and tons of paint and golden brushes.

Artist's heaven.

" Wow" That was all that came out of my mouth.

" Jason you didn-"

" I know how much you love to paint." He said and came near me and kissed my head.

" Thank you." I looked up, into his eyes and whispered as he towered me a little.

" Anything for you two."

" Aunty Cathy, will you teach me now?" Samantha's voice took over.

" Sure, but breakfast first" I picked her and we proceeded into the kitchen.

Jason set the table and I served us three along with coffee for me and Jason and a glass of milk for Samantha, which she made a disgusted face at. We had almost finished our breakfast.

" Samantha drink the milk please." I pleaded.

" No, it scaes me! " She said. This kid was sure dramatic one.

" Okay then, no painting." I hated to be the bad guy but she had to drink the milk.

She pleaded me with her shiny eyes.

" Come on, drink it." Jason held the glass up for her.

She looked at me and then him and took a sip with a bit of hesitation. Her expresiones changed when she drank it and finished in a go.

" It is really wosome" She said as Jason wiped her mouth with paper towel.

" Okay, how did you manage to do that woman? She and milk are enemies." Jason's eyes widened in amusement.

" It's an old trick my nanny pulled on me, when I was a kid, I was practically Samantha."

When I refused to even look at milk, my nanny used to infuse it with cardamom and honey which made me finish two glasses in just a minute.

" Can we paint now?"

" Sure honey" I said.

I changed into a tank top and shorts so my favorite tee doesn't get spoilt. I had Samantha change too.

We covered the floor with newspaper and moved the couches away. I did not want the grey marble to be turned into a palette.

" Art is a way to express what you are feeling." I held my paintbrush dipped in paint.

" Deep in that imagination of yours is a brilliant idea to be presented on the canvas. The canvas is an open sky and you are the little birdy, you choose your own flight ." I continued.

" I get it! I know what I have to draw!" She squeaked and dipped her own brush in paint. I smiled at her antics.

" Mister, are you going to just sit or paint?" I looked over to Jason who sat in the armchair in front of me.

" I will let the artists do the work. And I would prefer to look at you paint than rather do so."

" Suit yourself." I said and started to work my magic.

It took me an hour to paint what I felt while Samantha had tried to paint a rainbow and a sun, she was very good for her age.

" New York city" Jason said as he stood behind me.

" It's beyond alluring." He said and kept his chin on my head .

" Thank you. For everything." I turned to him and he held both of my hands and kissed them delicately.

" You deserve every bit of happiness for that kindest heart of yours." He looked in my soul and I looked into his. I hugged him and he reciprocated it.

I had managed to paint without getting my clothes dirty. Juliana had already bathed Samantha and served her lunch.

" Jason, could we go to the mall and get some stuff for her?" I asked him and threw off my top. He looked at me and his eyes darkened.

" Eyes up here mister." I said to him and put on a flowy aqua green top to with the white jeans I had worn.

" Yes, be down in ten minutes and then we can leave." He said and left the room.

We went to the mall accompanied by two bodyguards, typical Jason.

We got Samantha a lot of stuff. From room decors to charm bracelets, we had four large shopping bags filled to the point of exploding.

I had purchased a red short and revealing lingerie on Jason's demand.

" I want you to wear it for me and only me." He had whispered to me while he zipped me up in the trial room.

For dinner, Juliana had cooked us a filipino dish I couldn't pronounce but it was surely delicious.

I had prepared for tomorrow's day and then retired to bed with Jason after bathing and tucking Samantha in bed.

What an honour it is to sleep listening to his heartbeat and to wake up in his arms!
