Decisions (Adaline/Kai) (Closed)

Kai wiped the sweat off of his brow with his shirt and draped it back over his neck as he came in to land and place his broom in the team locker room. He wet his face with some sink water before squeezing a sports bottle of ice cold water into his mouth and allowing the water to drip down his bare chest. It felt good against his warm skin but it felt even better going down his throat. The man shoved the bottle back into his personal locker and slammed it shut before making his way home.

By apparition, it took literally two split seconds for him to reach his doorstep however today, he didn't apparate. Instead, Kai walked. Him and Adaline had been disagreeing with her personal choices lately. It wasn't because he didn't support her because he was all for her attending University, it was that he didn't want her modeling. She was his fiancee and her body should be reserved for him. She shouldn't be photographed for all the world to see.

The man grimaced. This certainly wasn't something he needed to be thinking about right now, especially since the big championship game was this weekend and his team was in the running for first place.

Kai entered the small home and threw his shirt into the laundry basket before making his way to the shower. It was what he always did when he came home from practice, Adaline knew that. The silence of the house was remotely peaceful and he knew what that meant. Adaline was cooking and Silas was at his grandparents.

Kai loved Silas enough to have gotten his name tattoo'd across his right peck, however he also enjoyed being alone with his future wife even if they were fighting. The warm water trickled down Kai's body along with the smell of soap and soon he found himself putting on a pair of grey boxer briefs and heading down to the kitchen.

His body was still damp with the humidity from the hot shower and his hair still glistened as he stood against the doorway his hand spiking his hair as he watched her from behind.

When Adaline didn't join him in the shower, he knew that things still weren't back to normal and he sighed because he just wished for once that she could just get over being so stubborn and give Kai a bit of pleasure. After all, he had been working all day and while his work was a bit different, it was still long and hard but it brought in a hell of a lot of money for the young couple. He was able to provide for their family and quite honestly, she didn't even need to work if she didn't want to.

Kai sniffed at the air, noticing the beginning smells of dinner. It hadn't been cooking long, that much he knew and as he thought, he took his attention off the cooking food and instead thought about the cold floor against the soles of his feet before finally thinking back to Adaline. She really was beautiful - hot even and he didn't want her exploited.

When he entered the kitchen, she had been cleaning, likely trying to take her mind off of their ongoing conversation.

She was in deep concentration, she always was. Adaline concentrated hard on her tasks whether they were potion making or cleaning the counters she put all her focus into it and he admired her.

He could feel a slight smirk pulling at the corners of his lips as his eyes admired her, even in her worn down state. Eventually, she turned around and looked to him, a result of his gaze on her back for so long likely.

"Intense," he replied, his voice gruff. She seemed to have gotten used to his lack of clothing around the house or maybe - she was just trying to ignore it so she'd stay mad at him.

Kai's temper was short but it wasn't as short as Adaline's and truthfully, he though hers was even shorter now with all the extra hormones and whatnot that she still had from having Silas. Adaline had gotten a hundred times more angry whenever they had an argument than before and he assumed it was just the new found maternal instinct or whatever she wanted to call it.

Kai crossed the kitchen and grabbed a beer can out the fridge, his back to her exposing his first tattoo ever : a dragon. He didn't drink often and when he did it was usually one bottle or can and it was never around Silas. Popping the top, he flipped the can up and swallowed a bit before turning back to her.

"The big games this weekend," he said watching as she played with the ring on her finger, the ring that cost him a fortune and took even longer to find. It was perfect for her however and he was glad to have continued his search instead of just settling on one. "You're going right?" They had discussed this already but he wanted to make sure that his family still planned to attend.

Kai nodded because he had nothing to say to that. He had already assumed that that was what was up when he walked into their home. "That's fine," he said just so he actually said something as he watched her get a Coke.

Kai wanted more tattoos, that was a given however he didn't know what else he wanted. Obviously whenever more kids came he'd have a tattoo of their names around Silas' and he'd probably add their date of births but what else could he get? He thought about getting one for Adaline but she'd probably find it stupid even if he didn't ever plan on leaving her. Either way, if something happened between the two he could always have it removed.

The question that was still left though was what exactly should he get?

"Good," he said noting the frown, "wouldn't want you to miss me scoring the winning goal." This championship game was everything to him and he'd be disappointed if they were to lose, which in his mind would be impossible because his team was significantly better than France's team. "I know you do," he said, an overconfident smirk on his face as he took another sip of the beer in his hands.

"Alone time is nice," he said, not really knowing what she expected him to say. Adaline always expected answers, however it was always confusing to try to figure out what kind of answers she was asking for. Just as he answered, he heard the sound the oven made when dinner was ready and his eyes trailed to the oven. It smelled great and he knew that Adaline had enchanted to oven to not burn anything which was good because he wasn't hungry.

Kai crossed over to her and looked down at her. He was tall and he was sure he was now finished growing. However his final height was a whopping six feet and an inch. He also was broader because the national team required a certain number of workouts per week which built more muscles and when his arms went around her, he gently picked her up and sat her on the counter. She was so very light and so very small, it was funny how she could carry so much anger.

He could always go with something lame and cheesy like a flower or something with her name in it, but knowing Adaline she wouldn't be a fan of it. Then again, she could surprise him and actually like it. His mind flickered to the wedding and imagined what she would look like in a white dress surrounded by their families and friends, forever tying the knot and becoming the Reid family.

Kai cocked a slight smile, he was glad she was still coming ad because of it, he vowed to play his hardest; he vowed to play harder than he ever had before. "I'm not over-confident," he snarled, "but Kai Reid never loses." His face grew closer to hers until eventually their noses were touching, but their lips weren't. They were still in disagreement and Kai wouldn't kiss her or tease her until their disagreement was resolved.

"Turn that frown around," he said in a bit of a demanding voice. "I'm getting eye level with you," he smirked slightly. He loved her being shorter than him because he could pick her up whenever he wanted and short girls were just cute period. "Counters can be cleaned, dear," Kai said with a roll of his eyes. "I mean I can always take you to our room."
