It must be love

Chapter 17

About a month-ish later

“No Ava! Don't kiss my daddy he have cooties!” A small voice shouted from behind us and Ava broke of

the kiss, stepping out of my arms.

"It's okay Kayla." Ava smiled over at her and my little girl's eyes widened to the size of saucers, looking

genuinely aghast, "But... But, daddy a boy and boys have cooties!"

Of course I had told her that boys have cooties because I didn't need those horny little shits at preschool

trying something. She had come back one day and told me that some Joshua had kissed her cheek, I

immediately told her about the whole cooties thing and she of course fell for it. Man I deserve a daddy of

the year award.

"What are you standing there smiling about?" Ava looked at me questioningly and I just shook my head

smirking, "Nothing babe"

I turned to a shocked looking Kayla and kneeled down in front of her then explained, "Only young boys

have cooties, not old ones."

She looked thoughtful for a second then nodded slowly as if still processing the information. "Okay daddy"

I picked her up and swung her around in my arms with her giggling and wiggling in my arms. "Stop daddy"

she giggled and I stopped and said to her, "I love you"

"I love you too daddy" she said burying her face in my chest and I kissed her on top of her head.

"Aw, so cute" Ava said and I winked at her. The two of us have been dating for three months now and

things couldn't be better. At first I was reluctant in introducing her to Kayla as my girlfriend but it all

worked out in the end since we had managed to go from strength to strength, yes it has only been about

two months but I was convinced that she was it.

Over the past few months she had been back and forth between here and L.A and I had flown out once

to see her, we were still getting a hang of all of the back and forth but so far so good. I have even

accompanied her to a few photo shoots but she banned me from future ones due to a small incident.

“I am hungry” Kayla said but seeing that there was no food in the house since I hadn't yet went grocery

shopping, I grabbed the car keys from the kitchen counter and bundled my two girls and the three of us

went to the store.

When we got there, Kayla kept throwing in junk food and unnecessary items into the shopping cart which

Ava discreetly took out. I laughed at the scene as Kayla looked woefully confused as to where all her junk

food was disappearing to.

"Ava! That's you!" Kayla shouted pointing at a magazine with Ava on the cover as we stood at check out

ready to pay for the groceries. She looked good, in fact she looked good all the time but then again I was

biased.

I remember that photo shoot, it was almost a month ago. Kayla had to fly down to New York for the shoot.

I decided to go with her using some bullshit excuse about having to meet with a client while I could have

done it on Skye, of course Jen being the big mouth that she is told this to Ava who luckily found it cute

and not controlling or anything.

I had finished my meeting early and went over to the studio where her shoot was. Some guy was flirting

with her and I was quick to put him in his place, telling him "If you come near my girl again, I will f**k you

up." He disappeared soon after and Ava got mad at me, saying I was being stupid and that was how I got

myself banned from all future photoshoots.

I made it up to her by apologising, which I didn't mean, I just found it easier to apologise instead of

dragging the argument. Lord knows she wouldn't have apologised any way. That apology led to the

greatest make up s*x ever which is why I was now grinning like a fool as I threw the magazine in the basket.

Ava looked at me weirdly and I winked at her. We paid for the groceries then left the grocery store, I

carried all the bags to the car while Ava carried Kayla. As I put the bags in the trunk I noticed a

photographer who had been snapping photos of us which annoyed me but I kept myself in check and

didn't say anything, it was becoming a norm to have paparazzi on my tale whenever I was with Ava,

sometimes even when I'm alone they would come over and ask ridiculous questions.

We got into the car then drove off to the house where Ava whipped up something to eat while Kayla and

I unpacked the groceries. After lunch, Ava and Kayla were dancing along to some music videos and singing

along giggling. I watched them together and the sight filled me with warmth.

"Daddy! Can we go to the park?" Kayla said running over to me and I nodded, done unpacking everything.

"Let's go to the park." I said causing her to squeal and Ava joined her, much to my amusement. We walked

out the house and walked to the park which was just down the road.

I held Kayla in my one arm and the other snaked around Ava's waist. I pulled her choose to me and kissed

her head.

"I love you baby." I blurted out.

Although I didn't mean to say it at that moment but I knew that it was true. I loved her with every fibre of

my being, regardless of the fact that we've only been together for a two short months. She and Kayla

meant the world to me and I wouldn't allow anything or anyone to take that away from me.

She grinned at me, “And I love you too”
