Chapter 40: indigo
Until death
"Indigo!"
"INDIGO!" I'm stood right behind him and he's shouting at the top of his lungs for me.
"GREYSON" grey jumps and turns around to look at me. I remove my hands from where there covering my ears and walk up to him.
"What the fuck indi, I've been calling you for the past 5 minutes"
"You called me twice" I reply and he scrunches his nose at me and flicks my forehead.
"So what is it?" I ask tucking my hair behind my ear, I should've tied it up it's really pissing me off.
"I can't remember" for fucks sake.
"Alright then Dory I'll be downstairs, don't forget Sophie's coming over in a bit" I remind him and once again tuck my hair behind my ear. He rolls his eyes at me and pulls a hair tie from his wrist. I turn around and he gathers my hair.
"Where did you get my hair tie from?" I ask him and feel a sharp pull at my scalp. Fucking ass did that on purpose.
"Found it" he retorts and groans while another piece of my hair gets yanked.
"What the fuck is this shit?" He says exasperated and sighs, dropping my hair and stepping back. Studying my hair as if he's never seen it before.
"Just put it in a low pony tail"
"A what?"
"A low pony tail" I repeat
"Pony tail" he mutters under his breathe and gathers my hair again, I look over my shoulder and his face holds pure concentration, his brows are furrowed and he's trying to be as gentle as possible.
"Done" he says and smiles proudly, I turn around and pat his shoulder. I look in the mirror and try to put an encouraging face on but it looks like shit.
"It's definitely something" I tell him and walk out the room while he goes to get changed for Sophie's dance recital. I changed earlier into a slightly cropped top with skinny black jeans and high heel boots. There's a knock on the door so I head downstairs to answer it, redoing my hair into low messy bun on the way.
"I said no sweets Sophie so your not having any" I hear Amelia say as I walk up to the door. I stand and listen for a second because I don't want to open the door and have to deal with a sulking child.
"Why not"
"Because I'm your mum and I said no" Amelia replies.
"Don't you laugh Oakley Knightly" Am continues and knocks on the door again. No fucking way am I answering that until they give the little shit sweets so she doesn't have a fit when they leave.
"Daddy I want sweets" daddy? When did Sophie start calling Oakley daddy?
"Ok amore mio" (my love) Oakley says and I hear Amelia sigh as a something gets passed over to someone. I open the door and Sophie is stood next to Oakley with a lolly in her mouth. She smirks at her mum triumphantly and waves at me.
"Hey indi" she greets and walks through the door and towards the living room.
"Ok then" Amelia says and hugs me.
"When did she start calling you dad" I ask and tilt my head.
"Like 3 days ago, she walked up to me and asked if she could call me dad, I said yes so she does" Oakley explains briefly and leans down to kiss my cheek when he finishes his sentence.
"How've you been indi?" He asks and I shrug.
"Fine what have you guys been up to?" I question.
"I'm a high achiever indigo" I roll my eyes at oakley and motion for him to continue.
"On Thursday I completed a puzzle in 3 hours and on the box it said 2-5 years, I was thinking about calling the world record company but I didn't want to make the puzzle company feel bad that they weren't able to assemble the puzzle as quickly as I did and they were the people who made it y'know"
"I-......" Amelia shakes her head at me and I take that as my sign to shut up.
"Well done oaks that's great" I pat his shoulder and he smiles like a child at his 'achievement'
"Also I heard that there's lizard in Japan that just turned 100" where does he get this from.
"That's not true" I reply and he looks at me offended.
"Yes it is, I read it on Wikipedia" of course he did.
"I can tell you don't believe me, why are you so mean?" He says and glares at me.
"I guess it's just my factory setting, now leave" I retort and shoo them away.
They both wave at me and Amelia tells me that they'll pick Sophie up at 10pm. Her recital starts at 6 and it's 4 now we have to leave at 5.
I shut the door and head back inside, I see grey and Sophie on the couch together arguing about something. I go over to them and they both look up at me.
"Indigo, Does the letter W start with D ?" Grey asks and I question my sanity.
"No because it's a letter"
"HA told you" grey laughs at Sophie and I sigh.
"You just indirectly agreed with me indigo" he says and I panic
"No I didn't I take it-"
"NO! no take backs allowed blue" he rushes out and I groan at him. No fucking take backs, why is he the man I'm marrying.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Are we inside the cars stomach?" Soap questions from the back seat and I shudder at the thought. Greys driving and I'm in the front with him.
"Shut up, don't ask questions like that you little weirdo" I say and she sticks her tongue out at me, I stick my middle finger up at her and grey grabs my hand and places it back on my lap over the long white coat I've put on for tonight.
when he tries to pull his hand away I keep hold of it. Teach him not to grab at me. Little shit.
"God you're so fucking petty"
"Damn right I'm pretty!" I know what he said I'm just not agreeing with what he said.
"I said petty!" He corrects and readjusts his hand so it's resting on my thigh. My insides go to jelly and I look over to him, he makes me feel things.
"Are you a voodoo person?" I ask and he scoffs.
"Why do you ask me these things" I shrug and look at his hands on my thigh.
".....Well are you?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We arrive at the venue and it's a big hall that's lit up by small lights that line the walls and the drive way. Grey parks the Range Rover and we all get out. Sophie skips ahead of us and I poke grey on his arm.
"What?"
"Look at that" I say pointing to a little gremlin that's wearing a bright yellow tutu and has a sunflower headband on with a matching leotard. He laughs and squints.
"Cant fucking see because of how bright that thing is" he says and I chuckle. Sophie stops and hurriedly walks back over to us, she grabs one of greys hands and one of mine.
"What is it princess?" Grey asks with concern at how shy she's just become and she pulls us together a bit as if she's concealing herself from the view of someone.
"That girl..." she says pointing to another little shit that's wearing a bright blue leotard and tutu with a cloud headband and a really stupid looking white fluffy Scrunchy in her hair.
Grey an I snicker as we walk past the girl who's obviously with her mum. The mum glares at Sophie as we walk past and I stop. Fuck no. You don't glare at my niece lady.
"Can I help you?" I ask the mother and daughter who are sending soph mean looks, only I get to bully her.
"You're daughter should not be here she attacked my daughter" I roll my eyes and look at the wrinkly lady in front of me.
"Look hunny, she's my niece and I'm sure she didn't attack your little germ there" I say and look at soap who smiles at me guilty.
"I may have high fived her.."
"She high fived her lady id hardly call that attacking" I say but soph continues after I finish my sentence.
"...her face..."
"Oh so she slapped her a little get over it, your kid probably deserved it" i say but there's still more.
"...With a chair"
"How the fuck do you even pick up a chair. Your like 4" I say turning around to Soph who's fist bumping Grey.
"Ok well we're going to go" I say and we walk away from the mother who's glaring daggers at my back. I should not have started that conversation.
We enter the building and walk over to the lady who looks like the teacher. Soph let's go of greys hand and runs to her friends. The lady smiles at us and we look at her blankly.
She puts her hand out but I don't shake it, neither does grey.
"I'm Sophie's teacher lovely to meet you, if you could just go and find a seat in the main hall we'll be starting in about half an hour" she says and we walk off. Grey grabs my hand and we walk though into a large open hall, there's a massive chandelier hanging from the ornate ceiling and rows of chairs. There's a big stage up front and a massive curtain that's down at the moment.
Grey and I sit down in good seats and we look at the program. All the little shits have their own solos and there's a group dance at the end.
"This is going to be painful" grey groans and he leans towards me when some giggling teenagers sit beside him.
"Blue"
"Hmm?"
"They are really fucking close, get them to move" he demands and I look at him, he's practically squashing me from how much he's leaning into my side trying to avoid being any closer than he has to be to the two girls.
"Move" I say looking at them and they both give me a funny look and laugh.I get out my dagger and run it along my lip.
"I said fucking move" I repeat and they look to me, fear coats their feature's and they stand up nodding and walk off to another seat. Grey relaxes beside me and I looks at the program.
The person In the seat in front of me puts their seat back and my knees are practically shoved out there fucking sockets. Grey kicks the seat and it pings straight back up. Loser.
The person tries to recline it again but greys got his foot still on it while he checks his phone, with one hand tapping away at the screen and the other on my thigh.
About 10 minutes later the teacher lady walks up to us and bends down slightly.
"Um, Sophie won't go on stage and she's the opening soloist, I was wondering if one of you could go and talk to her" she asks and grey sighs, he hangs up to the person he's on the phone to and follows the woman up the isle after giving me a quick kiss on the lips. Eyes attach to his perfect figure as he stalks confidently out to the practice rooms.
This should be interesting.
