Chapter 259 Cute Amos

Joanna diverted her questioning stares to the guy now standing beside her. "Since you've decided you don't want to go home tonight we can sleep over at the hut instead," He professed. He turned and stood with his back leaning against the wall just beside the opened window.

"Although I can't promise that it will be like it was in the past, I can assure that you will feel a lot better," He assured.

"Recalling the memories we spent there won't only lighten up your mood but I assure you it will keep you smiling. That's just how great the memories we shared there are," Amos boasted.

Remembering the fabulous time he spent with Joanna in the forest he normally called their secret hideout made him feel a hundred times better.

A smile lingered on his handsome face as he reminisced about the good old days.

"You look more excited than I am even though I haven't agreed to your suggestion," Joanna mumbled as she walked to the bed and sat down.

"How could I not be? That place carried some of the best memories of us together. Wouldn't you find it weird if I acted cool about it?" He argued, not moving away from where he stood.

"You are right about that. You would no longer be the Kay I know if you didn't react in the same manner you did," Joanna agreed, but she sarcastically did this.

It's because of his liveliness, mischievousness and cheerfulness that makes her often forget his true identity.

No doubt she would really miss the Kayden standing in front of her if he goes back to being the cold King everyone knows.

"So what's your answer? You agreed, right?" He said as he strolled to the bed where she sat.

He squatted in front of her so he had a proper look at her face.

"Hmmm…," Joanna trailed just to see what his reaction would be.

He stretched his hand and grabbed her right hand lying on the bed. "Say yes, ok?" He pleaded, making sure to pout his lips.

As though pouting his lips and blinking his eyes repeatedly wasn't enough to show his cuteness, he bent his neck a little to the side and shook her hand gently.

All this while as he did this Joanna tried her best not to let out the laughter she was suppressing. She could no longer pretend anymore and burst out in a peal of deafening laughter when he tilted his neck sideways.

HAHAHA!

Her laughter echoed in the once quiet room. She laughed so hard non-stop to the point that he got worried on her behalf especially when he saw her grabbing her stomach.

Joanna laughed until a drop of tear fell from her misty eyes.

[I have tried every possible way to cheer her up. I can't believe acting cute was all I needed to see her laughing so hard]

Amos stared at the woman who was having a hard time suppressing her laughter.

"Hey, who taught you how to do that?" Joanna questioned. A smile still lingered on her face despite that she stopped laughing.

"While growing up I saw Gwen making those expressions at Tom and I always witnessed the magic of those expressions each time she does that…,"

"And I bet you haven't done that before right?" Joanna giggled as she stared at his innocent expression.

"Why?" He asked in confusion. "Did I do it wrongly?"

He has seen Gwen make those adorable expressions at Tom each time she needs a favour from her brother.

Even he always finds her puppy eyes cute too. The image was engraved in his brain, he believed he wouldn't have done it wrongly.

"I won't comment on that but…," Joanna let the words trail as she raised her hand to cup his face.

"You are forbidden from making that face at any other woman except me ok?" She warned sternly as she shook his face slightly.

She released his face and stood up from the bed after making her point known.

"But why?" He demanded as his eyes trailed the back of the lady walking to the exit.

He stood up and ran after her. "Did you like it or not? Did you find it adorable or not?... You haven't said any of these things to me…,"

"That is because I am saving my comment for the next time you will make that face again," Joanna chuckled as she walked into the sitting room. She didn't spare a glance at the guy walking by her side.

"That's…,"

"Let's leave for our hideout now except you want me to change my mind," She said realising that he wouldn't let the matter rest just like that.

"That's not even an option," He replied only to appear at the centre table where he left his car key earlier.

Together Amos and Joanna made their way to their hideout in the forest.

Meanwhile, as this was happening, somewhere in the corner of a dimly lit bar, a guy in a grey casual shirt was seen sitting opposite a lady in black jacket who hasn't let down her glass ever since they arrived at the bar about an hour ago.

He stared at the lady as she poured the last content of the bottle of vodka into the wine glass.

"Audrey, although beings like us don't get drunk that doesn't mean that it won't cause harm to our body if you drink the liquor hurriedly like you have been doing…,"

"I have been the one who has been drinking but why does it look like you are the one drunk here," Audrey who was sitting with her back leaning against the black chair asked.

She raised her right leg and crossed it on the other.

"Even though I was to drink the entire liquor in the bar's wine racks I won't ever get drunk so what are you saying…,"

"We are vampires; beings who can live for as long as a millennium. We don't fall sick so tell me why you said the alcohol would harm my health if you are not drunk?" Audrey asked while looking at his face.
