#the lunch

“Of course! They’re going to love you, sweetheart.” I’d met Nik already but none of the rest of the Cavill crew just yet.

I had chosen to wear something simple: jeans, my old Def Leppard t-shirt, and the new sparkly flip flops that Henry had given me.

I caught his gaze while walking down the stairs at his house. “You look.. you look beautiful.” He stood straighter, leaning down to kiss me as he took my hand in his.

“And you’re looking dashing as always, Mr. Cavill.” I winked at him, allowing my free hand to roam across his broad chest. He smiled a crooked smile at me then led me outside where Kal and Leah were waiting.

“I apologize for keeping you waiting! I hadn’t realized you were here already.” I was worried I’d made a terrible first impression.

“Oh, don’t be dear! I’ve only just arrived.” We introduced ourselves, talking like two old friends; as I was getting into the van I wondered what I’d been so worried about.

At the restaurant Henry, and his aunt caught up for a bit before we ordered. I was quietly listening to them, enjoying watching the happiness dance behind those beautiful blue eyes that I’d fallen so deeply in love with.

He took my hand in his as the waitress took Leah’s order, he brought it to his lips, placing a soft kiss to the back. My heart flipped as he smiled at me then placed our hands in his lap as he ordered our lunch.

Leah was so nice. She was definitely invested in her nephew’s life, his happiness. She asked me all about myself, my life back in the states, what I did with myself here while Henry was busy.

Leah invited me to go shopping tomorrow while Henry was in a meeting. I accepted immediately. “That sounds wonderful! Thank you!” They shared a smile.

After dessert I excused myself to the restroom. Henry, ever the gentleman, stood as I did. He put his hand on my hip as I stood. I briefly rested mine on his forearm, casting him a loving look before pulling on my mask, and walking into the restaurant.

“Thank you for doing this, Aunt Leah.”

“Of course! I’m so happy for you Henry. She’s such a lovely woman!” She gushed to her nephew discreetly pulling a small, navy blue box from her purse, sliding it to him under the table.

“She really is.” He said, taking her offering. “She’s perfect.” He said softly as he cracked open the small box in his hands to look at the beautiful diamond ring he’d picked out weeks ago. He closed the box, being sure to pocket it before anyone saw it.

Henry was picking up the check when I came back. He stood to pull out my chair as I removed my mask. “Baby you don’t have to..” he ah ah’ed me, making me laugh. “Thank you, sweetheart.

“Certainly, my love.” He leant down to place a soft quick kiss on my lips. Out of love, and a little bit of habit, he leaned his forehead to mine and nuzzled his nose against my own, making my heart soar once again.

“Ohh, you two are so adorable together.” Leah spoke from the table. The blush that spread across his cheeks made me grin. He reached out for my hand as soon as he was seated.

We waited a few more minutes for the waitress to return with his card then went back to the van. “Hey buddy.” Henry softly said to Kal as he moved into the seat by the door. “Good boy.”

I stood by Henry waiting for my turn to step inside, still holding onto his hand. Knowing no one was looking, I let go of his hand letting my arm slip around his waist. Grinning mischievously I dared to go lower, running my hand over his ass giving it a soft squeeze.

I dropped my mask, tip toed up to his ear, “are you going commando?” I shifted my eyebrow at him as I stepped back. He nodded, I could see the smirk under his mask. “Huh. Me too.”

The look on his stunned face was priceless as I got in, my denim covered rear, completely on display, literally, in front of his face, and he couldn’t do a thing about it. I called Kal over to me as Henry sat down.

The look on his face as he took his mask off let me know he was coming up with a proper punishment as soon as we were alone. Returning my smile with one of his own.
