Clover?

Chapter 21

"I'll be contacting you soon. Before we sign any contracts I need to trust you." He said standing up. I glanced at his glass before standing with him.

"Whatever I need to do to make you more comfortable. This partnership is important to me." I shook his hand again. "I'm looking forward to your call."

*~*~*

I looked at the only picture of Soren, Adonis and me. It was a picture of us hugging each other with Soren in the middle. You couldn't really see a clear face but you could see arms wrapped around him. It was a beautiful picture. There were three green stickers next to it indicating some prints was sold.

My second favorite picture of the collection was my parents. In order to make them look realistic, Tyrell and Bassir whispered to each other and in one shot you could see Bassir giving an genuine laugh and Tyrell looking at him with happy eyes. It was so much love in the picture.

"Soren is super talented." Tyrell said coming up next to me. "I was a little uncomfortable seeing my kids in those positions but it was well photographed."

I laughed and nodded. It was so many pictures of intimate moments. Me and Ace took most of them. But Cayden is in a picture with his girlfriend taking off her bra. Me and Ace are in one where one of our hands covers Melody's breast. Luck and Star pictures might be the worst. Their pictures are full of a lot of kissing. It's not that bad but knowing them they were probably actually going to fuck during the shoot.

It's sweet pictures too like Leo and Ronnie pictures where they're fixing each other's ties. It's one of Ronnie laughing while Leo is holding a serious face. It's really showing love in all ages, shapes, and genders.

"Yeah that shit he got you and Mel doing crazy. The one where both y'all holding her throat is fucking wild. He got freak niggas in here buying pictures and shit." Tyrell shook his head. "Oh shit somebody brought ours." He looked at the green sticker. "Bassir somebody got our faces." I laughed watching him walk over to his husband.

"Ren did a good job huh." I heard a smooth voice say before I felt arms around me. I turned in Adonis arms with a smile.

"He did. Did you see ours?" I asked.

"Which one, the one of me and you?"

"No the one of all of us. It's one with just me and you?" He nodded and took me further into the back. It was a beautiful picture of my head buried in Adonis neck in the bed. Adonis had his arms around me and his head turned into my shoulder. "That little creep took a picture of us sleeping." I smiled.

"I don't think I like being called a creep." Soren voice said. "This is the last picture in the collection." He said to Romani who was standing near him.

"Oh wow that's amazing Soren. It's odd seeing them two cuddled up. They wouldn't even look at each other as kids." Romani smiled.

"I still don't like looking at his ass." Adonis joked. I gave him a playful glare.

"I don't know, how you make it seem like you love looking at my ass." I shrugged.

"It's alright." He shrugged.

"Please save the insults for home." Soren smiled. "I was showing Romani the exhibit. Next we're looking at the paintings I made."

"Oh yeah dad you do make art. Have you ever thought of trying to get it in a place like this?" Adonis asked. He wrapped his arms around me without much thought. He was getting comfortable, I like that.

"Me and your dad talked about it. A lot actually when we first started dating. Now that I'm retired maybe I should think about different career paths." He shrugged. "I don't know though. This shit Soren did is amazing I do more graffiti type art."

"Graffiti?" Soren questioned. Romani nodded with a smile. "Can you teach me? It's one of the only forms of art I've never dabbled in. I even made sculptures from recycled materials, movies, photos but never graffiti."

"Yeah it's easy, let me show you some of my work. David might have more than me, because he takes pictures of everything I do." Romani and Soren walked off to look for David.

"How was the meeting?" Adonis whispered.

"It was fine. He gives me chills but it went well. He said he still needs to trust me." I felt Adonis nod. "I'm very proud of Soren and you."

"Why me?" He questioned. "All I did was help set out the food and drinks."

"I'm proud of your openness. You've changed and I like that. I like you." I said looking back at him.

"I like you too baby." He smirked. Adonis leaned down and gave me a kiss.

*~*~*

"To Ren." I smiled opening the champagne bottle. Both Adonis and Soren cheered. We were now all home, sitting on the living room floor. Soren sold so many prints tonight, it was crazy.

"Thank you." Soren smiled taking a sip out of his glass. He's not a big drinker and when he does it's mostly tequila.

"You did a really good job Bunny." Adonis hugged Soren's side. "Me and Romero are really proud of you." He kissed Soren's neck.

"Thank you." Soren blushed. He turned and wrapped his arms around Adonis. I went over and laid my head on his shoulders. "Romero I didn't even ask how was your meeting?"

"Like I told Adonis it went fine. Y'all worry about me too much." I sighed. "You both treat me like I can't take care of myself. I'm a big boy."

"We just get worried. We don't want anything to happen to you my love." Soren whispered.

"I know and while I do appreciate it, I'd love a little more confidence. I thought the hardest people to convince would be my dads but it's you two."

"We got confidence in yo ass but we don't want to see you hurt." Adonis mumbled. I sat up and leaned over Soren. I gave Adonis an quick peck.

"Then act like it." I whispered.
