Love Agreement With The King

"I have to remind you that I don't need practice?" John said surprised by Roselyn's distrust in his capabilities.

"I... I don't want you to lose." Roselyn said, but John's gaze was still confused.

"I won't lose." He said almost chuckling as if he was stating something so obvious.

Roselyn was still irritated, she turned around and pulled Elijah as she whispered, "let's walk back home."

Elijah nodded, John stretched for Roselyn's hand and made her abruptly halt. "What did I do to make you mad? I only defended Elijah and you." John said scoffing.

Roselyn shook her hand, "if you wanted to defend me and Elijah you would have done that through words. But fighting? Is this the example you want to give to our sons? You want to give them the example problems can only be solved with a mortal fight?" Roselyn spat, forgetting for a second Elijah was there holding her hand and was listening to everything they said.

He had never heard them complain, also because that was the first time they complained since Roselyn gave birth.

John was speechless and puzzled, he mentally put pieces together and Roselyn was right, for the umpteenth time he reacted instinctively and not rationally enough to think about the consequences.

However, he couldn't retreat now.

"You're right.." John said lowering his voice, if he could press a button and go back in time he would probably do that.

"I am sorry. That's not the example I want to give to my sons." His gaze darted to Elijah who glanced at him supportively in a comprehending gaze.

"We will talk about this later." Roselyn cut it short since she didn't want to argue anymore in front of her son.

But when they came back home Felicity was waiting for them so they didn't get a chance to talk about that for the entire time until the evening.

Finally, when they got some privacy at night time John tried to apologize. "I am sorry. I was mad at him for how he threatened you. I am sure Elijah will understand." John said he didn't even know what to do to fix the situation.

"Roselyn please! Talk to me!" His voice got louder when he lost his patience seeing Roselyn ignoring his efforts to apologize.

Roselyn finally met his gaze but the gaze she gave him was of mad and full of resentment.

"I was mad too when I heard that cruel creature say so many bad things about Elijah but I controlled myself. If I had to I would have fought him if he exaggerated but you declared him war. A war which can only be won if one of you die. Now I Will be worried for the entire week! What if you die? I will lose my husband, the father of my sons and God only knows what will happen to us! In case you win, I will have the vision of you killing him and maybe Felicity too since we don't know her supernatural nature yet." Roselyn said all in a breath, she was so mad that her lips tremble while she let out all her frustration.

"I will retreat. I will talk to him." John said but Roselyn didn't seem willing to let him get away with it so easily.

"Do it if you can." She laid down in the bed and covered herself, she didn't even kiss him goodnight. She turned to the side and closed her eyes.

A scoff John gave, he wondered what he could do more than that? He understood his mistake, he apologized and he was trying to do his best to fix it.

***

The next morning John wanted to return Roselyn's gesture of last morning so he woke up early and made breakfast for the entire family. During his youth his father made him take cooking classes so he learned how to cook the easiest things.

He sent back the maids to rest a bit longer and waited for Roselyn to wake up.

Since she wasn't waking up at a decent time he reached her in the bedroom and woke her up carrying a dish filled with omelet and fruits to the side.

Roselyn slowly opened her eyes, when her vision cleared and the blurring of the morning faded she recognized John carrying dishes of food.

She smiled, forgetting she was supposed to be mad at him.

He leaned the food over and when she gave him the dish Roselyn smiled, "thank you," she whispered.

She felt less angry than the day before and she appreciated his gesture.

"How do you feel?" John asked

Roselyn sat on the pillow and grabbed the dish to start eating some of the food.

"I feel good, thank you." She whispered as she drank the cafe latte he brought her.

"I want to apologize again for yesterday, I am sorry if I hurt you. You're right I didn't have to solve the situation like I was used to doing in the past. As soon as you finish eating I will go talk to him." John said sighing and Roselyn nodded.

He did as he said, as soon as Roselyn finished her meal and went to the kitchen waiting for the kids to wake up, he left.

He went to the house of the man and found him practicing with his son, John took a long deep breath almost reassigned thinking he probably won't convince him to retreat from the fight.

When he saw John looking at then he smirked, he raised an eyebrow and wave at him challenging.

"Scared?" John heard him scream and he focus not to roll his eyes.

John speeded toward them, they looked at each other quietly for a few seconds until John finally took the floor.

"I came to talk to you. I may have reacted too instinctively yesterday so I want to apologize and fix the things talking like two grow-up people.." John said, the man heard him and exploded in laughs.
