Kyson's pov:

After grabbing my suitcase from my bedroom, I made my way outside to my car where Valentino and Theodore were waiting for me. They weren't coming with me, but they were accompanying me to the airport. I was going to ask one of the guys to drop me but these two proposed to do so.

When I'll be away, Theodore will be in charge of the mansion while Valentino will look upon missions or fights where he will be guiding our groups.

When I approached the car, both of them were leaning against the side of the vehicle, casually talking and laughing. Val noticed me and went to open the trunk. I put my suitcase inside it.

"Seems like your date night went well." I heard Theodore comment as I walked to the passenger side.

"What?" I asked as I looked at him. He was by my side, arms crossed with a slight smirk on his face.

"Yeah, I noticed it too." Val chuckled as he pop up from the back of the car.

"Notice what?" I asked again.

"The hickey on your fucking neck." Theo elaborated.

Oh.

I didn't have time to look in the mirror but I was aware of what she did. I'll look after her masterpiece later.

"It was good," I simply said.

"Ohhhhhhh," They both sang in a taunting tone.

"Shut up, I need to reach the airport asap," I told them.

We all sat down and Val drove to the airport. He went directly to the back of the airport as my dad's private jet was waiting for me there. We stepped out of the car and one of the guys came to pick up my suitcase before going to the plane.

"Have a nice fucking boring flight," Val said patting my back.

Not gonna lie, it's always boring without Theodore and Valentino. Whenever we are together, we talk and joke around making the flight more fun and the trip feels shorter but whenever I'm alone, it's boring and the journey feels longer.

"Take care of everything and keep me updated," I told them and they gave me a nod.

"Tell Mr Lucero that we said hi," Theo added.

"Sure."

I walked up the stairs and got on the plane. The pilot was by the door and he greeted me with a nod.

"I'm sorry for the short notice, Sir. The weather forecast said that the weather is going to get bad in one hour and flying a plane in such circumstances is not recommended. We would have to wait for three hours before flying." The pilot explained firmly.

"It's okay," I told him.

I walked to the seat and buckled up. It didn't take long before the plane took off in the air. Then, I was served a drink which I sipped while watching the news on the screen. I did fall asleep shortly after.

When I woke up later, there was only an hour left before we reached the destination. I scroll on my phone to kill time.

The plane landed and there was a black car waiting for me. My dad usually sends his driver to pick me up from the airport. The driver took care of my suitcase while I went to sit in the back. I took out my phone and texted the guys and Raelynn to inform them that I landed safely.

Speaking of Raelynn, I use my camera in selfie mode and look at the masterpiece she did on my neck. My eyes widened slightly as I watch the dark purple bruise visible on my neck.

Woah.

I took a picture of the hickey and send it to her.

I send the message before turning off my phone. I know that she won't be replying shortly because it was around 4 am there and she was sleeping.

The driver drove to dad's lake house. Since he fell sick, he moved in here permanently. He always liked the lake view and its peaceful surroundings.

He parked the car in the driveway and I stepped out.

"Good to see you again brother."

I turned to my side and saw my younger brother, Alec. He was leaning against the front house's pole, smoking his cigarette.

"Likewise little dude," I spoke. I like to call him little dude just to piss him off and it worked in his teenagers but now he doesn't care and it became his nickname.

"Dad is in the backyard." He informed me.

"That's why you came to the front of the house to smoke," I added.

"Yeah, Tobias is with him. I'll join you later." He said before bringing the cigarette to his mouth again.

I walked to the front door and made my way to the backyard. Dad was in his fancy wheelchair sitting in front of his garden while Tobias was standing beside him.

I made my way to them.

"Dad,"

They both shift their gaze on me.

"Kyson, you are finally here," Dad smiled as he moved to face me.

"Brother,"

Tobias moved beside dad and reached to do our handshake. We have a specific handshake that we created when we were little boys and we still do it. It was our thing.

"How are you?" I asked dad.

"Oh I'm good, how are you?" He asked with a cheerful voice.

"I'm good too," I replied.

"Hmm, I can see that. Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't you against having an escort on our plane?" Dad asked making me raise an eyebrow.

"Yes, I'm still against it," I spoke.

"Nice mosquito bite you have on your neck," Dad commented making Tobias chuckle.

I instantly understood his reference and what he meant.

"There was no escort or what so ever," I stated.

"I'm still saying mosquito bite as I know you don't have any side chick." Dad shrugged.

"Did I just hear side chick," another voice joined us. Alec joined us and stood beside me.

"Do you ever think of other things?" I asked Alec.

He shook his head no, "Nope."

"We were referring to our brother's hickey," Tobias told Alec.

"Oh, did you finally get a girl?" Alec asked, crossing his arm on his chest while giving me a questioning look.

All three of them were staring at me, waiting for my response.

"Yes," I said.

"Woah."

"About time."

"When will you bring her here?" Dad asked me.

"I don't know," I replied. I don't even know if she will want to meet my family, we didn't talk about this yet.

"Well my next chemo is in two weeks and if I was to expire, I wish to meet her at least once and talk to her," Dad stated.

Alec punch my arm, "We want to meet her too."

"Hopefully she isn't like Claudia," Tobias added giving me a pointed look.

"Nothing like Claudia," I reassured him.

My Raelynn was way better than my ex Claudia.
