Too Early for a KISS!

Axel stood up after taking a last sip from his coffee. He checked his wristwatch and fixed his necktie. He called one of his men and told them to get the car ready.

“Papa, are you going to work now?” Theo asked, looking up to his father.

The Alpha paused and nodded. “Yes, I have a lot of things to do in the company. You will stay here with Mama.” He glanced at Hazel then back to his son.

Theo pouted. “But Mama will be lonely if Papa is busy.” He said in a small voice.

Seeing how hopeless the child was, Hazel cleared her throat. “Theo, I’m not lonely. I’m happy because I will be here with you.” She said,

Theo quickly smiled. “Really, Mama?” he asked.

The lady nodded. She didn’t want to be alone with Axel today. She already showed a lot of embarrassing things to the Alpha. At least she wanted to give herself a preparation and a full relaxation about the new place. She wanted to roam the house and talk with the maids and Henry.

She’s not familiar with this place so she needed time.

“Excuse me, boss.” 

One of the men interrupted them and whispered something to Axel. The car is ready and he needed to go now.

“I will go now,” Axel leaned down and gave his son a goodbye kiss on the forehead. 

He was about to walk away when Theo called him back.

“Papa, you’re not gonna give Mama a bye bye kiss?” He asked with his arms crossed.

Hazel immediately froze. She looked at Axel and then to Theo who seemed to be waiting and then back to the Alpha again.

However, before she could make a move, Axel’s arms already pulled her waist which made her irked. She was bent down a little and as soon as their faces became so close, nervousness struck her. She felt like she was about to go dizzy into the imaginary roller coaster in her mind.

She wasn’t prepared for this!

Hazel never in her life kissed anyone. Kissing anyone was not in her mind either. She closed her eyes tight.

“Fix your expression. We are in front of Theo.” 

Axel’s low monotonous voice made her eyes open. A quick damp of the Alpha’s lips touched her nose. Her lips remained virgin and untouched.

The moment she blinked, Axel was already out of sight.

Theo jumped down from the chair after drinking his milk and then pulled Hazel’s shirt calling her to play, but then from the kitchen Henry walked in.

“Apologies, Young Master. Today is your first day of tutoring. Your teacher will arrive soon so please get ready.” Henry said.

Hazel took Theo to his room and changed his clothes. Then they waited for Henry to call them for the class.

When they got out of the room, Henry was already talking to a man who looked like a teacher with a children's book in his hands. He waved his hand when he glanced at the two.

“Miss Hazel, this is Sir Mike. He is the young master’s teacher.” Henry introduced him.

Hazel nodded her head and greeted Mike back. Henry explained the details of how Mike will teach Theo. Hazel wasn’t allowed inside the room but the child insisted so they both ended up taking a children’s class.

“Okay, young master. Now we are going to draw. Please draw anyone that comes to your mind.” Mike said with a sweet smile on his face.

Theo took the crayons and papers excitedly. He sat next to Hazel and gave her too.

“Mama, let’s draw,” he said while giggling. 

Hazel was again struck by the child’s cuteness. She had no choice but to follow the child and get along with him. Silence filled their atmosphere.

After a few minutes, Mike approached them. He leaned closer and smiled as soon as he saw the drawing.

“What are you drawing, young master?” He asked.

Theo stopped and let the man see his drawings. “I am drawing Papa, Mama and Theo.” He replied.

Hazel didn’t want to look awkward so she smiled at Mike. Her sweet smile caught the man’s attention, making it intrigued about her. 

Mike leaned closer to the lady and whispered. “Are you his new nanny?” He asked.

Hazel backed away a little. She got tickled by the sudden whisper to her. After that, she nodded. She focused on Theo who was still busy drawing and finishing his masterpiece when Mike asked again.

“How long have you been working here, Miss Hazel?” He asked.

The lady looked at him and replied. “I just started.”

Hazel wondered why Mike had a lot of questions. He seemed friendly and easy to get along with. Well, maybe because teachers are usually talkative especially if they are teaching kids.

She also didn’t want to leave a bad appearance to the man.

“Mama, look!” Theo raised the paper close to Hazel’s face. “I draw Mama with a pink dress!” He happily exclaimed.

That cuteness once again struck Hazel’s heart. She patted Theo on the head. “Mama is happy. Thank you, Theo.” She said.

But then after smiling so big, Theo put down the crayons and papers and then showed a sad face.

“Why is the young master sad?” Mike asked.

Theo crawled towards Hazel’s lap and hugged her. “Mama, I don’t want to study anymore. Theo wants to play.” He murmured.

“But Theo, it’s still your class time,” Mike insisted.

The child didn’t answer him and stayed with Hazel. It looked like he already got bored from drawing. Since he was still a child, the lady couldn’t refute.

“How about we go downstairs and eat some cookies?” Hazel suggested.

This made Theo jump up. “Yes, Mama! I want cookies,” he said while clapping his hands.

Mike was about to say something again but Hazel already picked Theo around her arms. The kid wasn’t that heavy after all.

“It’s okay, Teacher Mike. I will handle him.” Hazel said before walking out of the room.
