Chapter 820 Early Morning Chat
Tom had a smile on his face as he woke up on Monday morning to kisses on his face.
“What are you doing?” He asked Lucy as he tried to open his eyes but she kept kissing both eyes one after the other.
“Waking you up,” Lucy said as she pulled away from him and Tom chuckled.
“You seem to have woken up with lots of energy,” Tom observed as he looked into her smiling face.
“Lots of love you mean,” she corrected and Tom laughed as he glanced at the alarm clock by the bed.
“It’s not even six yet,” he complained.
“Yeah. That’s because I woke up early and wanted us to spend some time together before we get ready for work. Are you complaining?” She asked and Tom chuckled as he rubbed his eyes.
“Isn’t that usually my thing?” He asked, amused by her excesssive show of love.
“Well, it’s now my thing. I’m hungry,” she complained and Tom sat up.
“Let’s go find something for you to eat then,” he said and she grinned.
“What I want to eat is right here,” she said with a naughty smile and Tom laughed out loud.
“For Christ’s sake, Jewel, what has gotten into you?” Tom asked and she grinned.
“Nothing yet, but I’m hoping you will get into me soon or inside me preferably,” she said with a wink making him laugh harder.
“It’s too early for all these laughter,” Tom said and Lucy smiled.
“Well, I want you to start your day with a healthy dose of laughter,” she said and Tom pulled her close and hugged her as he let out a deep sigh.
“Thank you, Jewel. You make me so happy,” he said and she wrapped her arms around him and patted the back of his head.
“You make me happy too,” she said as she pulled back to look into his face.
“Are you really hungry?” He asked and she grinned.
“Nah. I woke up really hungry. Just wanted to make you laugh. Today is going to be a busy day for you since Harry isn’t coming to the office, right?” Lucy asked and he groaned.
“Please don’t remind me. And it’s not just going to be today. He will only be coming in on Wednesday to wrap up some loose ends before leaving for his vacation,” Tom said and Lucy smiled.
“I guess we won’t be able to have our dates anymore after work,” she said and Tom frowned.
“Why not?”
“Because you might have to leave work later than usual because of your meetings and stuff, and you will definitely have more work to do,” she pointed out.
“Well, we still have to keep up with our dates even if it’s for only thirty minutes or an hour,” he said and she raised a brow.
“You must be getting old,” she joked and he laughed.
“I suppose so. You’ve changed your mind about getting married to Tom, haven’t you?” Desmond asked, and Lucy raised a brow.
“How did you come to that conclusion? And why are we back to talking about me when you refused to talk about you?” Lucy asked and Desmond laughed.
“There is nothing to talk about me. I’m just a boring old man. Nothing fun is going on in my life,” Desmond said and Lucy snorted.
“Apart from traveling around the world with the love of your life. I wish I was you,” she said and he chuckled.
“Did I tell you, you’re more fun now too?” Desmond asked and Lucy pouted.
“So, I wasn’t fun before now? You are hurting my feelings.”
“I said more fun, Lucy. More fun,” Desmond said and she flashed him a smile.
“Have I told you, you’re my favorite Hank apart from Tom?” She asked and Desmond laughed.
“I thought it was Sonia?” Desmond said and Lucy gasped.
“How did I forget she is a Hank now? I guess you come after her,” she said and Desmond laughed, feeling genuinely amused by this new Lucy.
“I can settle for that. Thanks for making me laugh, Lucy,” Desmond said and she smiled.
“You can keep a secret, right?” Lucy asked, and Desmond shrugged.
“If you want me to,” he said and she leaned closer to him.
“I plan to propose to Tom at the Christmas party. He doesn’t know I’ve changed my mind yet. I plan to surprise him,” she said with a mischievous smile and Desmond grinned.
He had always known that Lucy was going to eventually change her mind about getting married after she settled comfortably into her relationship with Tom, and he was pleased to see that he had not been wrong.
“I thought as much. I’m happy for you, Lucy. You’ve come such a long way in such a short time. I’m proud of you,” he said and Lucy raised a brow.
“Why do you sound like my dad? You should be happy for Tom,” she said and he chuckled.
“I’m happy for you both, but I’m happier for you. This tells me you’re overcoming your trauma and you’re in a good place in your head. That is why I’m proud of you, he said and Lucy sighed deeply.
“You’re right. And once again, it’s mostly thanks to Tom. You raised a perfect man for me, Desmond. Thank you so much,” she said and he nodded.
“I guess the next time we see will be at the Christmas party where you will be proposing to him,” he said with a pleased smile.
“Evelyn will be over the moon with joy. Thank you for changing your mind, Lucy,” Desmond said and they both turned when they heard footsteps.
“Seriously? You woke me up to spend time with me but you’re here with my dad while I’m waiting for you?” Tom asked incredulously.
“Sorry, love. I saw him sitting here alone so I decided to keep him company,” Lucy said as Tom took the seat opposite her.
“I will leave you both then. I have to go back to bed before Eve wakes up,” Desmond said as he rose.
“Thank you, Lucy. You’ve made my morning,” Desmond said and leaned down to peck her before walking away.
