"Is she more better than me?" Damien voice asked. Both females raised their head to see Damien at the door.
"How long have you been there?" Agnus asked
"Throughout" he answered honestly
"Yes, daddy she is" Misha answered his earlier question
"Why's that?" he asked as he stepped in and joined them on the floor, on misha's other side
"Her food is delicious" Misha said simply
"So this is how you want to steal my daughter?" Damien asked, obviously kidding
"Not my fault you can't cook" She answered in kind, flipping her hair
"Rude" Damien feigned offense. Misha turned back to agnus
"So when I go back to school, you'll pick me up and drop me?" Misha asked
"It's till then and I'll try" Agnus answered without really giving her a yes
"Not because I'm jealous and want to end this talk but our breakfast is getting cold" Damien said
"food!" Misha yelled
"Lets go eat then" Agnus said, they stood up, misha already ran out the door "like you could be jealous" Agnus teased
"I'm not but I could be. You're great with kids by the way, are you married or dating?" Damien asked
"Weird question but I'll answer. No, honestly I haven't been in a relationship my whole life. I was more focused on my career, now that I'm where I need to be, it never crossed my mind" Agnus answered honestly
"So you've never dated? Never been on a date? And never had your first kiss?" he asked all at once
"Still weird questions but no for every single one" she replied
"So you've never...?" he trailed off but she caught on.
"What, no no, I haven't. Never ask that, it's weirder than the others" he held up his hands in surrender
"Fine, I'm sorry" Damien apologized
"We better go eat before the food gets cold" she reminded
"Well, it'd be your fault" Damien said. Agnus narrowed her eyes at him "seriously?" she said.he chuckled
"I'm not really lying, am I?" he teased
"You're a devious man" she joked
"Whatever you say, not gonna argue" he said
"Coz you know it's true" she said
"Its not" he argued
"Whatever you say, not gonna argue" she used his words against him. He crossed his arms over his chest jokingly with a smirk.
"Now who's the devious one? Stealing my lines" Agnus just stuck her tongue out at him "oh my, I have two kids now" he gasped, he was joking and she knew. She rolled her eyes but still smiled
"C'mon smarty pants or our food will get cold" she said
"Or misha's already eaten it" he added. They went down for food. For a week agnus would come over and babysit Misha while he went to work. On Thursday,they all sat on the large couch, eating popcorn while watching a movie
"Its great that you came home early for misha" Agnus spoke . Damien nervously scratched the back of his neck with a low chuckle.
"Well, I honestly had free time" he said, wanting to end the conversation but Agnus didn't get the memo
"It's good. Spending more time with her I mean"
"Yeah, it is" he agreed
"Shhhh I can't hear" Misha said, since they were disturbing her movie
"Sorry Misha" Agnus said with a fond smile. The next time they spoke was Friday night, Misha was asleep. "So how was work" Agnus asked
"I've been home for like 10 minutes and you ask me now" he said raising a brow
Agnus chuckled "well excuse me for asking eventually"
"Work was fine. How was yours?" he asked
"Well since I was here, I've been online" she replied
"I'm really sorry I've been taking your time. I just, I feel it's better you than a babysitter" he apologized and said to her truthfully
"I guess I appreciate the compliment and its okay. Its actually nice to relax for a bit" she said. She really was grateful for the break but she knew she'd have to get to her store soon. She is still the owner
"Well, I'm taking misha to her grandparents for the weekend. I was wondering if you wanted to hang out" he said, he'd never admit it but he was nervous she'd say no. She raised a brow
"Hang out?" she asked
"Yeah, just us, no misha but if you'd rather not. I completely understand. Its not like I'll be lonely" he was rambling, he knew and she picked up on his last word.
"Lonely? You? I doubt it" she said, he shrugged "well tomorrow is the saturday and I'm free, so yeah. As long as its an hang out and not a date" she said
"You should be glad if it is a date" he said
"Puh-lease, no" she disagreed
"It's not a date, just a hang out between high school friends" he said
"Sure, well I'll see you, bye" She knew deep down it was a date but she wanted to ignore the thought. She left, he escorted her to the front door and watched as she got into a car and drove off. He closed the door, locked it.
"It's totally a date" he said to no one in particular then asked himself "what am I gonna do?" chapter 7 coming soon. How's the story so far?
