42.85% HIS COCO / Chapter 26: chapter 26

Capítulo 26: chapter 26

Ailee and Gigi came up on the terrace to enjoy the gloomy and cold weather when she decided to experiment a braid style on her.

"There you go" Gigi said patting Ailee's shoulder twice.

"Oh My Goshhh this is so cute Gi thank you." Ailee beamed and turned the mirror in odd angles to look at the pretty braids properly.

"You're welcome. Now I shall take my leave."

" Yes bye. Love ya."

She clicked lots of photos of her new look and sent them to her big baby who demands her pictures everyday.

Now that her sister left for work and Ailee was all alone, she decided to check up on her boyfriend whom she hasn't seen in two weeks because Luka was away resulting in Xavier getting a bit busier than usual.

He didn't pick up the first time she tried.

So she dialled again and this time just when she was about to hang up, she was greeted by his tired and hoarse voice.

"Zai hey! Did I disturb you?" she asked nervously.

"No Coco I will never be disturbed by you."

"Ok. Are you alright?"

"Mhmm perfectly healthy."

"Your voice is contrasting your statement sugar." she bit her lip in worry.

"It must be a network issue."

Suddenly the line went silent. Xavier looked down at the device in his hand confusingly but it started ringing again and this time it was a video call. He swiped the button and accepted the call straight away.

She didn't speak for 10 seconds just observing his face and he did the same.

"You lied. Your face is flushed, your eyes are watery and you look like you haven't slept in days." she said worriedly.

"Well the last part is true." he said lowly.

"Well every part of it was true. Please don't tell me you're in the office in this condition."

Silence.

"Say something" she pleaded.

"You asked me to not tell you that I'm in office." he shrugged.

"Xavier!"

"Coco."

"Ughh is this how you're like when you're sick?"

"I'm not sick."

"My bad; let me rephrase it. Is this how you behave when you're extra healthy?"

"I don't know what you are talking about."

"I'm coming to pick you up."

" You are not."

" Yes I am"

"I ate Tylenol"

"Why? That's for sick people"

" God! The sass makes you sexier" he said licking his lips.

She blushed so hard, only now realising how savage her replies truly were.

"I-umm I'll see you in a bit. Bye. Take care."

She hung up right after not even waiting for his response.

He smiled a little and got back to his work.

___

"Sir is in his office ma'am. I'll ask someone to take you there." said the receptionist as soon as Ailee approached her.

Looking at her perplexed state she added

"You're here to meet Mr Romano, right ma'am?"

"Uh y-yes I am." she replied still confused but then slowly it dawned on her. They saw her!

They recognised her even when she only came here once. Well the second one doesn't count because she directly went to the waiting room on her own and then left just 15 minutes later through the private exit.

"Hi! I'm Emily. I'll take you to Mr Romano. Please come this way." said a young and pretty blonde girl.

"Thank you" she replied politely.

"It's my duty ma'am."

They both entered the elevator, different from the last one, and got out on the familiar floor.

"His cabin is right up ahead. You can ask for the assistance of Ria at the desk if you need anything."

"Ok thank you again Emily" she smiled and continued on her way to scold her 6'2 ft boyfriend.

She knocked on the door and waited patiently for his response which she got soon after.

She entered slowly and shut the door behind her softly. After a minute he looked up at the lack of acknowledgement by the other person and was surprised to see his little piece of chocolate standing there fidgeting with her bracelet. Yes he was expecting her but it's too early for her to be here. He thought it would take her atleast an hour, not that he was complaining.

"How are you Coco?" he asked returning his attention back to the computer.

She didn't reply and shuffled closer to where he was sitting.

He looked up when he felt her hand on his forehead and heard her gasp.

"You are burning up!" she exclaimed cupping his face with both her hands.

"Why did you come to office when you had such a high fever Xavier. You didn't even inform me. I'm very disappointed."

"I will be okay in a day or two and about not informing you, it was not worth making you worried for."

"Please promise me if anything like this- No if anything at all happens to you, even a scratch, or tiniest bit of cold you tell me right away. Promise?"

He sighed.

"I am okay Coco look at me."

" Promise me please" she looked at him with her big bright eyes that he can't resist and he caved in.

" Alright "

" Say it" she demanded interwining their pinkies.

" What's this for?" he asked with a scrunched up face.

"Promise seal. You can never break it. Now say it."

" I promise I'll tell you whenever I will feel hot."

" I-you-" for reasons unbeknownst to her, she blushed.

The man infront of her who was intently studying her smirked.

"P-please say it properly" she said holding his large hands in hers.

"I promise you will be updated about my health whenever there will be a reduction in it. Happy? It's like we are taking our fucking wedding vows."

" Very" she replied tucking a strand of hair behind her ear ignoring the latter part of his comment.

" I'm really feeling hot though." he said barely masking his amusement.

"Xavier" she tried to glare at him but her red cheeks were a dead giveaway of her fake strictness.

"Let's go." she pulled his hand only to get pulled back naturally when the object behind didn't budge.

"Where are we going?" he asked looking at her short figure.

"First hospital then your home." she replied crossing her arms trying to look intimidating.

"Yeah No. You stay here with me." he said putting his hands in the pockets.

"Yeah No. You come with me."

"What are we? 5?"

"Me? no. You? yes."

" I-"

" Yeah yeah c'mon Xavi please please please please." she interjected with a cute pout resting on her even cuter face.

"Don't do it. It's me who's betterment we are discussing here so why are you begging?"

" I don't know maybe because you're too stubborn and this is the only way?"

" Ok let's go" he said and led her outside murmuring something along the lines of how she is no less stubborn than him.

___

"Now what Coco?" he asked in exhaustion.

They were standing infront of her car and Ailee refused to go inside.

"I'm drivin-"

"Hell no."

"I'm not letting you drive. Get in. Oh Emily is calling you look!"

"Who the fuck is Emily?

The moment he turned to look at the building they just exited, she sprinted and sat in the driver's seat. Her giggles brought back his attention and he understood what she did.

"You" he shook his hand and sat down on the passenger seat.

Capítulo 27: chapter 27

She skillfully parked the car in his garage. They stopped by the hospital much to his dismay and got him examined. Doctor suspected that it was because of lack of sleep and rest because other than that all his test results were normal. He just sat there glaring at the poor soul who was trembling because of his undivided attention.

"You go get changed and I'll make you something to eat before you take your meds."

"Just order something"

She looked at him strictly and he raised his hands in surrender.

"Fine fine Jeez never thought this mother hen side existed in you."

"Mmmhmmm off you go"

He went up and she in the kitchen dialling her mother's number on the way.

"Hello?" came her usual sweet voice.

"Hi mama I wanted to tell you that I won't be coming home tonight. I'm staying at a friend's."

"Oh alright. Is it the same friend as last time?"

" Yes"

"Ok love. Take care"

" Bye mama"

She hung up and started putting the ingredients together. Atleast he had enough grocery for two days.

By the time chicken soup was being prepared she added bite sized banana, strawberries and blueberries in greek yogurt and took them to his room.

"Zai there's a bowl of yogurt on the bedside table please eat after showering."

"Alright thank you baby" he replied from inside.

She happily got back to her work.

While cutting the vegetables her phone started ringing and when she looked at it, she was utterly confused to find an unknown number.

Hesitantly she accepted the call. Receiving unknown calls is the single most uncomfortable thing for her.

"H-hello?"

There was no response. She pulled back the phone and checked if the person hung up or something but it was all okay.

"Is someone there?" she bit her lip hard.

" Yeah" came a breathy reply.

What scared her was the fact that it was a man, well it sounded like a big bad man from the movies.

"W-who is t-this?" she said already walking towards the room Xavier was in.

"You gave me your number"

"I didn't. Wrong number." and she hung up immediately adding it in her block list.

The first number to make it there.

He sounded like he was restraining himself but from what? And he said she gave him her personal number?

She found herself standing outside the room and decided to turn back and not disturb him.

___

After an hour she assembled everything on the tray and took it upstairs.

She knocked on his bedroom door but got no response so she went ahead to his office and knocked again and he replied a 'come in'.

"I would if I could"

He opened the door and took the tray from her hands leading them inside.

They settled on the sofa and started eating.

"Eat the salad too" she said putting generous amount of green salad on his plate.

"I'm not a cow. I don't eat grass."

"You think I am a cow?" she asked putting down her spoon.

"What?" he choked on his soup and she burst out laughing.

"I'm sorry I was kidding. Here." she gave him a glass of water which he thankfully gulped.

"Green veggies are good for you so eat plenty of them alright?"

"And what do I get in return"

"Good health" he looked at her flatly.

"Ummm anything you want then?"

"Hmm tempting. Alright. I will use it later, you better don't forget about it."

" I won't"

" By the way the soup is fucking amazing what'd you put in there to make this bland shit worth a second round."

And she went on and on about how she modified this recipe for herself and how everyone in her family loves it.

___

After a hearty meal, it was the time for his medicine.

"Say aaaaaaa" she said forwarding the meds to him.

He looked at her then the medicines but didn't move.

"Come onn you have to." Ailee said putting her hands on her waist resembling a mother correcting her toddler.

"I will be fine. I always have." he said still being stubborn.

But who was he kidding?

"Yeah alright my tiger but inorder to get healthy faster, you need to."

He looked at her flatly.

"Urghh ok. I'm going home since you're so fine to be on your own. Goodluck." she said sweetly and handed him the tablets, almost turning to leave when he held her hand.

" You're so dramatic" he said and gulped it down without water.

Her eyes widened.

" Bro atleast drink some water. Let's not get aggressive, shall we?"

His eyes darkened at the term she used for him, doesn't matter if it was a joke or not.

In one quick pull she was on him, partially straddling him.

"What did you say?"

"I?" She pointed at herself innocently and gulped.

"Mhmm you" he replied adjusting her hair to one side.

"I asked you to-"

"What you called me just now" he interjected and started planting butterfly kisses on her neck and shoulder blades.

She gasped and held his shoulders tightly just for the sake of her sane-ness, wrinkling his shirt in the wake of her actions.

"Say it" he said in between his sweet torture.

The dominance in his voice made her give in instantly.

"I w-was kidding when I called you-you B-bro-"

He bit her just below the shoulder the moment those words slipped out of her mouth and she took in a sharp breath, throwing her head back.

He soothed the place with his lips and repeated the process a couple more times. His hold on her waist tightened with the sound that left her mouth and her small hands tangled with his locks making it harder for him to control himself.

"You don't do this with your fucking brother Coco."

She nodded rapidly and slowly opened her eyes when she could feel his mouth on her no more.

"Understand?" he asked caressing her cheeks which were painted crimson.

She nodded again.

"Words, baby, words."

"I understand"

He smirked and licked his lips looking at the art he just made all over her upper chest and ran his fingers along the skin that was slowly turning purple.

She buried her face in his neck and closed her eyes, replaying the incident that just took place.

"Can I atleast do my work ?" he broke the silence after few minutes.

"NO! Absolutely not. Let's take a walk instead?"

He sighed but agreed nevertheless. It's the least he could do in return for the delicious dessert she let him have.

"Ok let me wrap up the things here and I'll join you in a bit, alright?"

" A-okay" she said showing him thumbs up. He pecked her forehead and got up.

She came out in the garden and started walking, quietly humming to a song that was stuck in her head.

He was on his way down when he heard her scream in pain and he ran with his heart thumping loudly in fear of her getting hurt.
