Chapter 96 - He Could Never Get Enough
April enjoyed the liveliness around the dinner table. She hadn't had this relaxed family feeling since her mother had passed away. Usually, at mealtimes, she had eaten alone or with Tom in the kitchen. But now she had Dean who refused to leave her condo and was also an excellent cook and friends to join her. The abundant energy from these new friends and partner gave her made her heart fill with content happiness.
She had wished and manifested for this amount of bliss to enter her life but she wasn't prepared for the feeling now it was here. But she was able to heal herself and grow with self-care and now she had people surrounding her she felt she could depend on. She felt this good karma from all her suffering during her past life, this would continue to help her heal her old wounds with time.
To April Dean was an instant connection like a soul tie. Hers and his red string had pulled them together in this lifetime and while he was in her life she promised herself not to self-sabotage their connection with any doubts she felt and just go with the flow of this abundant love they shared.
"Why are you spacing out? Stop overthinking" Dean snapped April out of her thoughts by flicking her forehead. They had all had breakfast and they both stood at the sink. Dean was washing and April was drying the dishes and putting them away.
April rubbed her forehead, "Ouch, meanie. I was just thinking about what we could do today."
"Mmm, I don't buy it. But if you want to talk about what we are doing today I am taking you on a date." Dean of course didn't believe her, but he would wait. When she wanted to open up she would and he would never pressure her before she was ready.
"What date? Where are we going?" Joseph who was seated stood and approached them both as he heard Dean. "That's hardly how you ask a young lady out on a date."
Dean sighed, this old man seemed to only have good hearing when he wanted to, "I was asking April out not you."
"If I had of asked your grandmother out on a date like that you would never be here in the first place." Joseph wanted to advise his young grandson on how to properly court April, he didn't want any miss haps.
Dean folded his arms and sighed, "Do you know how long ago that was, dating has changed a lot since then and do you think I haven't planned a perfect date?"
"Don't get snippy with me it wasn't that long ago I am still a young grandfather in comparison to my friends. Why not take my advice I was happily married for over fifty two years." Joseph continued to give his advice.
April giggled as the two seemed to fight amongst themselves about how to ask her out and where Dean would take her. She wanted to reassure them she was happy as long as she and Dean were together it didn't actually matter to her what they did but she also couldn't help but laugh at the two in front of her. This was the feeling of family.
Hearing the light laughter from beside them the two men turned and to look at April, this stopped the argument and allowed April to get a word in.
"I am sure whatever Dean has planned we will have fun and grandfather I will visit you tomorrow how about that?"
Joseph smiled, he knew she was buttering him up but didn't mind in the least. This was also the first time she had called him grandfather since he had asked her to. This is indeed why he had to make sure his idiot grandson wouldn't mess up, "Perfect, I will see you tomorrow. Dean, you can come along if you wish."
Dean rolled his eyes, of course, he would be going. It was the weekend and he had cleared his schedule in order to spend time with April. Oliver was in the office running his business so he could have this quality time with April, but now he was stuck with this old man.
"Okay you have taken up our Saturday morning and it looks like you will see us both tomorrow so on your way," Dean replied to his grandfather.
"Granddaughter, you see how he treats me? You must come and see me when you can, if it was up to Dean I would be very lonely." Joseph held Aprils hand as he spoke.
April could see that the two had a very interesting and funny relationship. She knew they both liked to banter with each other and she would play along, "Of course, we will both come and visit you often. I can even cook for you tomorrow if you like."
"Now that does sound nice." Joseph beamed at the thought of spending more time with his family. After he retired he was alone in the house, his wife and son had long passed away. It had left his son and grandson in the house with him but they were never home. April was like a breath of fresh air brought into his life.
Happy with the outcome of his impromptu visit he announced, "I will be on my way, you both have a wonderful date." He then turned to Dean, "Don't let the Davis name down, spoil your future bride."
April blushed but Dean was quite happy with that thought.
April then walked Joseph out and said goodbye, she reassured him that they would see each other tomorrow. Joseph was content and left the condo shortly after that.
Dean leaned against the door as April closed it, "Now we are alone, shall we have dessert?"
April who had just closed the door heard Dean and her heart sped up, this man was insatiable. She didn't look up instead she ran to the bedroom as quickly as she could.
Dean saw her flee and laughed while walking after her, once he had had her he could never get enough.
