Chapter 2: Chapter 2
Adrian waited nervously outside the airport. He had called his senior brother Darius and he said he would pick him up! It was the middle of the day... He must have CEO work, how could he possibly make him come pick him up?!
Darius even said to stay at the old house for a while since his parents were on a trip!!!!! He was going to stay at his senior brother's house!
Adrian waited nervously and did some self-construction. Suddenly a beautiful sleek black Maybach rolls up next to him.
"Senior brother!" Adrian exclaimed a little excited seeing the familiar license plate and the familiar alpha approach him," Thank you for picking me up!"
"No problem Adrian," Darius said, his deep voice rolled off Adrian, beckoning the driver to take his luggage.
"Thank you, uncle Zhang," Adrian said taking out some postcard stamps from his bag," I bought some chocolate and local postcard stamps for your collection."
"Ah! Little Adrian, you never forget to get this old uncle some trinkets," uncle Zhang said as he accepted the gifts.
Adrian laughed," You flatter me!"
He turned to Darius who was looking at him with a small smile on his usually stoic face," Senior brother, I'll give you your gift later."
"Alright Adrian, get in, you must be tired."
Adrian nodded and got in.
When the car started Adrian couldn't help but look at Darius.
Darius was a tall black-haired alpha with piercing dark eyes. His face was well sculpted and totally Adrian's dream alpha.
Darius had been Adrien's type since he realized he should have a standard.
Suddenly Darius turned to him," So, how was it? Did you finish all your business in Country W?"
"Yeah!", Adrian said," Everything went well, I'll be opening two restaurants in Country W. One in the capital and one near the port."
"That's good," Darius said ruffling his hair," You're all grown up now, you used to be a little white chubby guy, now look at you."
Adrian flushed," Senior brother... you're bringing up my black history."
Who wants to be remembered as a chubby guy by their crush?
"I haven't heard from you in a long time," Darius continued," Your call surprised me."
"Oh," Adrian said," Actually I just realized that I never see senior brother when I'm at your house since you're always busy and I wanted to see you this time so I called..." Adrian rambled.
"I see," Darius said with a small smile," It's my fault for being busy, you should've called me sooner."
"I just thought you were busy for a long time... I didn't want to disturb you..." Adrian said flushing.
Darius hummed," Well, we finally saw each other, I think it's been nearly 2 years since we've had a proper conversation."
Adrian nodded not denying it, since the passing of the elder brothers in the Woodchester family, all the responsibilities suddenly fell on Darius. It was a difficult time for everyone, but it was probably much worse for Darius.
"Sorry for keeping you waiting, Adrian," Darius said ruffling his hair again, it was something his senior brother did since they were children, Adrian habitually leaned in.
Darius looked at the fluffy head, his eyes becoming gentler.
-------------------------------------------------------
"Auntie! Uncle! How are you?" Adrian said, walking over to give the Woodchesters a hug," I missed you guys."
"You've been gone so long dear," Mrs Woodchester said cupping his cheeks," You lost fat everywhere but here. You're a chef! You should eat more!" she said pinching his cheeks," You used to be nice and fat and white!"
Adrian cried without tears, what was with this family and remembering his fat days?
" It's bad for my health if I get fat auntie," he tried to reason.
"But you're too thin now! Look I can clasp your waist with my hand!"
"Okay mom, I think you should stop harassing him now."
"Yes sweetie, the poor boy looks like a pufferfish in your hands," Mr Woodchester agreed.
" How was business child?" he asked looking at Adrian warmly, "Everything went well I presume?"
"Yes!"Adrian said, still trying to get away from Mrs Wodchester's pinching," two of my stores will start running at the port and the capital by next month."
"That's good, that's good!" Mr Woodchester said happily," the younger generation is great! Making their hobbies business capital! Very remarkable."
Adrian blushed," Uncle... you're making me shy...."
"Oh! Yes! I got presents!" Adrian suddenly said and rushed off to help Uncle Zhang with the luggage.
"Ah that child," Mrs Woodchester sighed happily," he's still such a cutie even now.."
"Mrs. he's an omega, he wouldn't marry you as I did," Mr Woodchester said with a scoff," But, yes, old Barry raised such a good omega child."
----------------------------------------------
When Adrian returned, everyone was sitting in the living room. A middle-aged woman, probably a new nanny, had brought Lucas down and was standing beside the couch. Lucas blankly looked at the TV, his face and body as rigid as a plank of wood. Adrian's eyebrows scrunched together, Lucas was usually very lively, but he quickly shook himself and smiled," Lucas!"
Lucas looked at Adrian blankly. Adrien paused. Did he forget me? It has been a couple of months after all.
Adrian approached the nanny and went close to Lucas. He felt like the room was suddenly very quiet.
"It's your Uncle Adrien! Remember? Uncle A-dri-en," Adrien slowly recited holding up his hands so that he could pick him up. Lucas has always liked being held ever since he was a kid. He would quickly climb into his arms if he ever tried to coax him to go with him.
Lucas looked at Adrien blankly. He paused and stares at him before also raising his arms, consenting to pick him up much to the shock of the nanny.
Adrian smiled, picked up Lucas and held him close," Remember me? I took you to the zoo, remember? I made you panda mochi, remember? Uncle Adrien?"
Adrien looked at Lucas expectantly, he would just die if his favourite baby forgot him!!!!
Lucas stared at him with big doe eyes before uttering," Un-cle... A-rien..." Adrien was delighted.
"That's right! Baby Lucas is so smart! He remembered me after so long!!!" he said tapping his chubby cheeks.
Lucas stared at him making his finger itchy. He tapped the baby on the nose. Lucas went cross-eyed staring at his fingers then giggled and hid his face in Adrien's chest.
Lucas wanted to squeeze him but restrained. He loved kids! So cute!
He smiled widely, who wouldn't love to have a kid in their arms like a little heat pack?
