Chapter 111: Extra-03

LEO

"I clearly don’t remember Leo telling me that Joe is coming with you." Erwin complains, "Is it a habit of bringing people to another person’s place without asking first?" Erwin doesn’t look at all pleased at the fact that Joe is in this house.

"Warner, before your husband, Leo, is my brother." Leon returns nonchalantly, "And this is his house, if he’s not minding then why are you making a fuss about it without any reason?"

Erwin grits his teeth, glaring down at the older man.

"Will you guys stop this, please?" I hold up my hands to stop them, "You guys aren’t children that you are fighting among yourself like this."

"But Leo..." Erwin trails off and lowers his head.

I know that Erwin is still not at all comfortable with Joe around me. He is still blaming himself for what happened those years ago. And honestly, it kind of pisses me off too. Just thinking of Erwin with someone else makes my blood boil with jealousy and irritation. But well this isn’t anyone’s fault for what happened that night and other than that Erwin wasn’t with me that time, so I think I can be considerate and forgiving just for this time.

"It is fine." I rub his back gently, "I don’t mind."

"I just don’t get how Warner has slept with every beautiful person out there." Leon wonders out loud, "You should be thankful that after all the things you have done, Leo still loves you and is carrying your child in his womb. If it were me, I would have left you a century ago."

"This is why the person I love is your brother, not you." Erwin sneers. "And I know that I am super handsome this is why get all the bitches." Erwin gets on his feet and turns to me, "Leo, I have to go now, my lecture starts in thirty minutes."

I extend my hand to him. He takes it and helps me on my feet, I am eight months pregnant now and I am having a lot of difficulty moving around with my belly, it’s way too big and it hurts really bad when they make movements inside. The babies are very active, so restless that I sometimes wonder if they want to get out of there just yet.

"When will you be back?" I ask him, my eyes are teary as I tug at the hem of his coat.

The pregnancy has made me so clingy and emotional that whenever Erwin leaves my side I feel like crying my eyes out. I am having so many problems controlling my overwhelming emotions. I sometimes worry that Erwin is getting irritated by my crybaby behavior. But well... it seems quite the opposite.

Erwin’s eyes soften and he hugs me, careful not to hurt me, "Aww, my little pregnant hubby is crying because I am leaving his side for a while. So cute!" He squeezes me and smooches on my cheek. "I will be back in an hour or two sweetheart. Wait for me."

I loop my arms around his waist, "It hurts so bad when they move..." I complain meekly.

"You will be fine, you are my precious omega right?" Erwin kisses my forehead and drinks in my face with so much love that I never knew that it was even possible to have this much love within someone.

I nod.

Leon cringes and sneers from the couch across from us, "You guys are so... My eyes hurt."

"Just admit that you are envious of us." Erwin rolls his eyes and with one last kiss on my lips, he stalks to the exit of the living room. "I will be back soon, Leo." He spins around before stepping out of the room and smiles at me.

I nod in return. And when he is gone out of my sight, I drop to the couch and my mask slips back into its respective place. "How is New York?" I ask Leon, my voice void of any emotion and my jaw tight, there is no hint of my earlier tears and love for my alpha.

"It is doing just fine." Leon recites as if he is giving the weather report.

I lean back in the coach, my arms folded across my chest, "So how is it that you and Joe came here together?"

I have been meaning to ask this one question for very long but as Erwin was by my side I couldn’t ask him. John noticed that Erwin was feeling uncomfortable around Joe so he took Steve and Joe out on a walk. He will be back any time now.

"He said he wanted to visit John and Steve, so he tagged along," Leon replies simply, but I know there is more to this simplicity.

"Leon, you know better than me that this is not what I am talking about." I point him out, "Why are you and Joe in touch? And it seems like you both are pretty close as well."

Leon lowers his eyes but doesn’t answer immediately and I know what it means.

"What is the matter, Leon?" I press further, but a little softly this time. "Are you anyhow getting involved with Joe?"

Leon pauses then slowly nods, "We are neighbors. That’s all. I am not getting involved with him emotionally or physically or anyhow."

"But I don’t like the look in your eyes when you look at him, Leon." I try to sound, but it comes out wrong.

"What eyes? What look?" Leon arches an eyebrow, "What are you talking about Leo?"

"Please don’t act like you don’t know what I am talking about, Leon. Because I know that you know better than anyone what I am talking about." I counter him. "When you look at Joe, you have the same look in your eyes as Erwin when he looks at me. Like the world has long faded around him and he wants nothing but me. Do you know what the consequence of this might be?"

Leon remains quiet for a while before answering silently, "Seems like I have grown attached to Joe without me noticing it."

"Does Ruth know about this?" I sigh then ask him, "Does he know that you guys are never and all this what is going on between you two?"

Leon at last looks up at me and gives me a determined look, "Look, Loe. I might have grown a little attached to him but it doesn’t mean something is going on between us. There is no ’us’ and I am not all that close with Ruth. e barely talk and that is only because of you. So if his dear little brother didn’t tell him anything that t is no place for me to tell him anything. The whole thing is none of my business in the first place."

And this is what my older brother says but I know that he has already unconsciously made every ounce of it his business. His eyes tell me that. They tell me that it is not just a simple attachment. But something more deeper than that. And that is need.

Before whenever I looked at Leon, there was always this empty look in his eyes. They are void of life and livliness but now when I look at them I see they are no longer lonely and dull. They look forward to something or someone. And I know that someone is Joe. I know that this is none of my business to say anything about whatever is going on between him and Joe but I kind of smell that Ruth will not be a all pleased with the information. After all, all big brothers are the same, except for mine, who seem to give zero fuck about my husband.

I sigh, if the person himself is oblivious to how he feels then I am in no place to point it out for him. He will realize it someday on his own.

"Oh the reason, I was here to visit the Boston brunch." Leon jumps to business, "How is it going?"

"I am not able to visit the company, but my secretary says it is running pretty well." I go along with him, not wanting to make it weird for both of us, "The reports are pretty good as well."

"Do you want me to move here to help you with work?" A flicker of concern flashes through his eyes, "You will be the chairman soon as well."

"No. It is fine." I wave at him, "We need someone in New York too. And after I become the chairman, I need you to be the CEO."

"CEO? Why me?" Leon blinks in confusion.

"Father isn’t in a good shape and, Jules... bastard is in Japan this time." I shrug in annoyance, "He wouldn’t listen to me. And you are far more capable than them."

"Understood." Leon nods his head in understanding, "Okay then, I shall take my leave now. I will be back before evening to pick Joe up."

"Okay." I start myself up from the couch with some difficulty, my lips pursed, "I will walk you to the exit."

Leon grabs my arm and helps me up, "You don’t have to. Go to your room and rest."

Just as he says that I feel a sudden pain shoot through my belly and a groan escapes my throat. I look down and see... My water broke.
