Chapter 175 - Nothing Changed

"The way she is sleeping I think she would not wake up before me" he muttered under his breathe and kept the pillow back and stood up walking towards the bed.

Slowly sneaking inside the duvet Lucas quietly pulled Elena over him and hooked his arm around her taking her in his embrace. As if he had found back his life Lucas breathe a sigh of relief and closed his eyes when he heard his wife's voice, "What happen? Can't you sleep on the couch?"

Snapping his eyes open he looked down only to see Elena wide awake. His lips pursed into a thin line watching his wife in horror. She was sleeping a while... he thought.

"S-sunshine you're awake" he asked now that he was caught there was no point to lie to her.

"Yes and I saw how you were sneaking inside the duvet like a thief" she was about to pull herself up out from his embrace when he took her back down not allowing her to get up.

"Sunshine please.. don't be angry. You know I can't fall asleep without being next to you" yes he was ready to do every thing she would ask him to do but he was not ready to part from her.

"Then next time keep your insecurities away from your mind and heart. Lucas you can't go around closing everyone's eyes to watch me or even you. Not every person out there have bad intentions so please kept this thing in mind and don't act according to your jealously" Elena had been very polite through the speech she gave now and she wanted him to know not everything can be controlled just because he was jealous.

Elena had the ability to make him understand where he went wrong and how he should change his habit. She knew her way of punishments or making him spill his hidden secret were weird but she needed to do that for making him understand.

It was okay with business related work but out from the work he had a life which he needed to be living with his fullest and not going around claiming everything.

"Sunshine... I know all you said is right but I can't help. You know you are only for me to watch and look at and the eyes which even lay on you I feel like plucking it out from their socket" his words made her look up at him which made her raise her brows when she again heard him," But I will try to change my behavior" defeatedly he answered back.

Nodding her head she again laid her head on his chest and wrapped her arms around his torso," Even I can't sleep without you being next to me" 

All this while she could hear him stir on the couch and muttered but she wanted to see how long he was going to hold on from sneaking next to her and guess she was right it had been only twenty five minutes and he was already sleeping next to her.

"Huh!! You were just acting falling asleep" he asked and saw her nod her head and giggle.

"I didn't think you wouldn't last for even a single night" 

Lucas was amused how she could easily read his action and yes she was right he wouldn't last even a second without her. 

"Hmm.."

After staying in each others embrace for sometimes Lucas again spoke," Sunshine tomorrow we will leave to aunt Susan's house and I'm sure you will love her" he said looking up on the ceiling remembering how Ethan's mother had taken care of him and treated him like her own son.

"I would love to meet her soon" she yawned and closed her eyes as sleep reached her eyes and she laid on Lucas making him to close his eyes and fall asleep.

The next day everyone got ready to depart from the island and head to Ethan's hometown. Accept Lucas the other two boys were in very bad condition. Their hangover was not doing anything good to their stomach making them feel puckish.

"You both shouldn't have drink too much" Lucas who watched them looking all pale. One was holding his stomach and the other one was massaging his temple.

As soon as there luggage was placed inside their car everyone took each one of the car and drove away from the hotel. Samantha was more excited to meet Susan as she was longing for so long to let this trip take place.

She slide down the glass and looked outside the window when her eyes caught hold on the similar view. She pulled back and turn to see Ethan who was resting his head on the headrest. 

"Are you okay" she asked brushing his hair. She knew this would happen to him because he was not use to have alcohol.

"Hmm just a little headache" he said and leaned to rest his head on her shoulder hooking her arm.

"Next time never drink. You look cute though but still I prefer the sober one" she wouldn't want him to suffer like this same and it would be better if he not even take a sip of alcohol.

Inside the other black SUV Daniel was having hard time to sit still. His stomach was not letting him stay still as it kept stirring with every turn and jump as the car moved.

"Daniel sit quite" Maira who was watching him wanted to smack his head to get himself drunk and now he was facing the after effect.

"Babe I think I will seriously throw up now" he covered his mouth and patted the driver seat to stop the car. As soon as car stopped he rushed outside and threw up everything.

Their car was the last one while the other two cars had already went ahead of them.

Taking the water bottle in her hand Maira went and patted his back until he threw everything out. After what felt like eternity they where finally able to reach along with their friends.

****

Inside Elena's and Lucas car, the couple was having a beautiful time talking and watching the row of trees which their car passed by. She pulled down the window glass and breathe the fresh air closing her eyes and devouring the scenery.

It was the first time she was going to visit Ethan's hometown. Samantha had already said she would just loved the place and Ethan's mother was the sweetest women she would ever meet.

"Are you already loving the place sunshine" he asked and the answer he got was a nod from her.

It was already noon when they finally reached their destination. Lucas and Ethan were the first to walk out from their cars.

"Everything is just the same.. nothing changed" Lucas looked at the house which was his second home. He had nice memories of the time he stayed here.

"Where is Daniel?" Ethan asked when he only saw Maira getting out from the car.

"You better go and take him out" she walk passed by the boys and joined the girls.

Samantha was familiar with the place and like excited kid she went without waiting for Ethan to lead their friends inside. She took the initiative and opened the gate walking inside along with the girls.

"Mother...." like a kid she ran calling Susan.

"Oh my my... finally my sons got time to meet me" she walked out with Samantha but was welcomed with Elena and Maira.

"You are Elena right" she asked walking to the girl who had finally put Lucas back into life.

"Just as he described you" she traced her palm cupping her cheeks agreeing Lucas words.

"And you are Maira" she then went to Maira and hugged her," No doubts my daughter-in-laws are beautiful" 

Elena and Maira were already loving Susan as her sweet and loving nature pulled their heart. Without waiting for the boys the girls headed inside with Susan.

While the girls were welcomed with open arms outside the gate Lucas and Ethan went to get Daniel out. He was sleeping like a pig after he threw. Even Maira tried to wake him up but his five minutes never ended.

"I don't think his five minutes will every come to an end" Lucas wanted to go inside and meet Susan but his brother was not even letting them go.

He then turn to the driver and voiced loudly," Take young master back home, he won't be continuing the trip" as soon as Daniel heard those words his sleeping head just got clear and he hopped out from the car," I'm not going anywhere" he said and ran as fast as possible before his brother smack him.

"When will he grow up" Ethan shook his head and then both head inside the house.

The first thing they heard inside was Daniel whining and complaining, "Aunty no one loves me and always keep me bullying" Daniel was resting his head on Susan's shoulder as she kept coaxing him.

"A small stubborn child is best to bully because it always keeps complaining" Lucas walked and went to sit next to her and rested his head on the other side of the shoulder," Mother I missed you soo much" though he didn't got time to come and visit her but he would make sure to be in contact with her.
