The warmth of a family

Jasmine and Beau finally decided to shift their attention to work related topic. The upcoming week was going to be extra busy for them both. One was the host for the yearly fashion week while the other had a lot of painting to do for the event.

They talked about how to go about the organization of the event until they had the full plan put into writing. It took them four hours to completely come up with a perfect solid plan with no flaws. Of course this was because each item had a back up plan incase something went wrong.

Beau was a perfectionist. He had plan B, C, D,E and F for every event making the big companies enjoy and prefer his services. Besides being an entertainment industry owner, he also had an event management branch as part of the company. Very few people knew him in person since like Jasmine, he preferred to stay incognito.

" By the way girly, the main model for the night would be your former girlfriend. Are you ready for some face slapping? The designer in question is a huge fan of your arts and especially likes your music scores. In fact, he was the first one to buy your first song label," Hell on Earth".

Jasmine looked at the man and thought for a while. A wicked smile formed on her face as she nodded excited. " I have an idea. Arya loves her self some branded clothes. I have no need for them but it would be my ultimate pleasure to make her angry. Besides, I want to befriend her and give her a taste of her own medicine. What do you think?"

Beau felt goosebumps forming on his skin from Jazz's tone. This was the side of her he was scared off. The icy Queen. This part of her was wicked and merciless. Who was he to judge though? The world was not merciful to the innocent. It in fact hurt them the most.

Clearing his throat, he spoke." Whatever the princess wants, she gets. When do you plan to reveal your face to the world ? Or do you have another plan in place? "

Jasmine just smiled creepily at him as she sipped on her juice. That was all the answer he would get for now.

Looking at the golden clock hanging on the wall, it was already half past five in the evening. Beau has stayed more than he had planned to but he had at least got some work done. He stood up ready to walk out when a very cheerful Max came into the room. The man was jubilant . Extremely so such that he felt he should hug anyone in his way.

He rushed towards the standing figure of the man and engulfed him in a bare hug. Beau was left with his mouth wide open as he got a whiff of the Max's faint mint scent. He took in a deep breath trying really hard to keep his heart beat under control. It was such little innocent actions that made him love the man more.

Fortunately for him, Max let go of him and went straight for jasmine. He carried her into his arms and twirled her around until she was a giggling mess. Who could have thought that the girl would laugh so merrily without any reservations ?

This was the scene that greeted Edgar and his youngest son Travis. They stood watching the beautiful scene. Jasmine's giggles were extremely infectious as it drew smiles from all the men who were watching.Damn! what I would give to be held in his arms like that for the rest of my life! Beau thought.

Max placed Jasmine down and held her in his arms to prevent her from falling. He knew that she would feel dizzy after twirling her around like that. Even as he held her, his smile stayed put. On noticing his father and youngest brother's presence he spoke excitement evident in his voice.

" Father, I am officially a Dad and you are a grand father. Our princess here shall be the god mother, and my little brothers the god fathers. " He paused for a brief second and looked at Beau who appeared almost scared of his next words. " I had a hard time deciding what our dearest Beauty over hear would like to be called by my new son. So I left that space for after he gave me an answer. Dearest Beauty, what would you like our baby to call you?"

Beau blushed unable to contain the happiness he felt when Max called him a beauty. He stayed silent for a minute and looked up only to find the whole family watching him as they anticipated his answer. The man was a business man for a reason. He can be shameless when need be and this was an opportunity he might never get again.

" Is it alright for the baby to call me Papa? I would like to be his father too." He spoke unable to hide the shyness and uncertainty in his voice. Max looked surprised for a moment. He let go of jasmine after pressing his lips to her forehead and walked towards Beau.

Standing before him, he looked down at the shorter man and bend a little to whisper into his ears, " How about Daddy?"

Beau who had been feeling unsure looked up too fast that his neck strained. He felt a sharp pain in his neck which made him close his eyes, bit on his lip and let out a whimper. Max who had just been teasing him was in awe of the beautiful man before him. He could feel his member react to the sensual look in the man's face. Shit what am I thinking!

He cleared his throat and tried hard not to ask if he was okay. Instead he stepped back and with a sincere smile nodded. " Then papa it is." The family members dispersed after a while of sharing congratulations . Beau ended up being invited for supper.

Fortunately, he had being given a room some time back since he had been working with Jasmine from home after she recovered. That meant he had a change of clothes and could sleep over any time he wanted to do so. They had their evening meal together. The ambiance was warm and the food was tasty. What better way to end a day than have a warm meal with your family!

Beau ended up spending the night at the mansion after he was coaxed into staying by the family. He was glad to not have gone back to his cold and empty apartment where he was likely to feel lonely. He had been doing just fine being alone for twelve years but nowadays, he found himself yearning for a partner to come home to. He fell asleep dreaming of his love who happened to be in the room next door. " Good night my love."
