It was no news that they were crazy about each other and were happy spending every moment together, even at moments like this when she was busy working on her story with both legs resting on Bryan’s ass while he was sprawled on the bed shirtless, playing a video game.
Writing about them at this point would seem like a filler
Celsie on the other hand had enough conflict in her relationship to last an entire book, so maybe it was time to reconsider who her main characters in her were going to be. As much as she loved the to be about her and Bryan, Celsie’s and Benne’s story seemed more like appealing.
She sighed as she closed her laptop, and Bryan turned to her, “Are you alright? Is the writing not flowing?”
“I don’t know,” she said as she pushed her laptop away and raised her legs off his back so that she could lie down beside him.
“Tell me, what do you want? Inspiration? Motivation? Attention?” He asked as he set aside his pad console and leaned forward to steal a kiss, making her giggle.
“All of those I suppose,” she said, and Bryan raised a brow.
“Okay, do you need me to give you ideas? You could tell me where you’re stuck and maybe I can help,” Bryan offered as he sat up.
“Our story. It’s sort of like a whirlwind romance. Everything happened so quickly and now I have nothing else to write about us,” Sonia complained, and Bryan narrowed his eyes as he thought about it.
“And that’s not a good thing?” Bryan asked, and she nodded.
“It’s not. Besides, whirlwind romance doesn’t last. It ends almost as soon as it starts,” Sonia pointed out, and Bryan shook his head.
“I don’t think that’s always the case. I know some relationships like that…”
“Romance stories thrive on conflict. Not just romance, stories generally. And right now our story is lacking in that regard,” Sonia pointed out.
“What do you mean there is no conflict? What then do you call that scandal?” Bryan asked with a slightly raised brow.
“We resolved that too quickly,” Sonia said with a frown, and Bryan looked skyward, praying for patience to deal with his girlfriend who was being unreasonable.
“Says the same person that became upset when I didn’t accept her apology immediately,” Bryan said, and Sonia giggled.
“You can’t blame me for not wanting to be on bad terms with you,” she said, and Bryan nodded.
“Okay. So why not make it a short story?” Bryan suggested.
“Well, our story is not over yet. It’s a mix of fiction and non-fiction, remember?” Sonia asked, and Bryan sighed.
“So, what do you want? Should we create conflict? Perhaps if I cheat on…”
“You wouldn’t dare!” Sonia cut in with a glare, and Bryan chuckled.
“What if I cheat on you instead?” Sonia asked with a sweet smile, and this time Bryan glared at her.
“So what kind of conflict do you want? Should I ask my family to disapprove of you? And then you can spend some time trying to make them accept you,” Bryan suggested, and she giggled.
“I already promised Evelyn I was going to birth her first grandchild, she isn’t going to disapprove of me so easily,” she said, and Bryan raised a brow.
“When did you promise her that? That must have made her really happy,” Bryan said, watching Sonia with interest.
“Yesterday. She was happy,” Sonia said with a wide smile.
“Unfortunately, you may not be able to keep that promise as that won’t be happening any time soon,” Bryan said, and the smile faded from her face.
“Why not?”
“Because we are not having kids any time soon. There is no reason to rush into it. I still want to have you to myself. And as you said, everything is happening so quickly so I think we should take it slowly,” Bryan suggested, making Sonia’s brows pull together, but before she could say anything a knock sounded on the door and they both turned to it.
“Is anyone naked in there?” Desmond asked, eliciting laughter from both Bryan and Sonia.
“You can come in,” Sonia called out, and he opened the door.
“Where are you off to?” Bryan asked when both his parents walked into the room, dressed as though they were going out.
“We are going on a date,” Desmond announced, and Sonia grinned, while Bryan looked from Evelyn to Desmond with a strange look on his face.
“A date?”
“Yes. Do you have a problem with that?” Evelyn asked, and Bryan shook his head.
“Not at all. I hope you enjoy yourselves.”
“We plan to. Sony girl, do you need us to get you anything on our way back?” Desmond asked, but she shook her head as she snuggled closer to Bryan.
“I’m okay. All I want is right here. Have lots of fun,” she said, and giggled when Desmond leaned forward to kiss her cheek.
“Alright, take care of yourself and don’t let Bryan stress you. Call me if you need us to get you anything,” Desmond said before leading Evelyn away.
“Your parents are so cute together,” Sonia cooed as they watched Desmond hold the door for Evelyn.
“I hope we can be even more cute together when we get to that age,” Bryan said, looking at her with serious eyes, and Sonia giggled.
