Since She Met Lucian

"You're just jealous!" Lucian snapped in a harsh voice. There was an undertone of playfulness in his voice despite his words.

Amelia had never seen Lucian speak to Jonny that way. But Lucian's words and manner seemed to have no effect on Jonny. He wasn't mad at all. Instead of saying something back to Lucian, Jonny turned to Amelia and said, "Amelia, I really wanted to come and see you as soon as possible, but he didn't let me because he was afraid that I would steal his thunder and get more of your attention."

Jonny gave a mischievous smile.

"Since when did you two become so ridiculous?" Amelia asked with a slight smile. She was visibly amused by the way that they spoke and jested with each other.

"Lucian may sound gutsy sometimes, but the truth is that he is a very shy person inside," Jonny remarked. He took the opportunity to make another verbal swing at Lucian to the amusement of Amelia.

Lucian knew that Jonny was only cheering Amelia up with his words so he didn't reply back. He felt glad when he saw the smile on Amelia's face as well as the sound of her light giggle.

Amelia didn't say anything but she was smiling and had started to giggle. She then turned to Lucian who was peeling an apple for her, her eyes filled with love, and asked, "So, when did you learn this skill?"

He may not know how to properly wash the dishes, but he surely had a skill with peeling fruit.

Her words sounded like she was flattering Lucian. Lucian glanced at Jonny proudly then said to Amelia, "I'm quite amazing, aren't I? Do you want to reward me with a sweet kiss?"

His eyes closed slightly as he faced Amelia and waited for her to kiss him.

Jonny felt embarrassed and said, "Lucian, how could you show us that face? It's disgusting!" He then burst into a thunderous laugh.

"Jon... Mr. Jonny, please don't worry. I would never act like him," Amelia remarked with a serious tone of voice. The amused smile on her face slightly faded away and was replaced by a slightly playful smile.

She almost addressed Jonny by name only and she felt bothered. She remembered her promise to Jonny that she would never call him Jonny in front of Lucian. She was able to correct herself immediately this time. But she was worried that she might slip someday.

There were several situations when she almost slipped. She then remembered that Lucian would object every time she referred to him as Mr. Jonny.

"Why can't I get a kiss from my wife? You call me Mr. Lucian because I am your husband. But you should call him Jonny An. Not Mr. Jonny." Lucian sounded jealous. His words sounded like he wanted Amelia to immediately change the way she addressed Jonny.

"Amelia, you can call me Jonny later," Jonny said in an offhand manner as he shrugged his shoulders.

"Jonny is too intimate. His name is Jonny An," Lucian countered immediately before Amelia could say anything.

"Don't you think it's impolite to call him that?" Amelia asked in a low voice. She glanced at Lucian and stared at him briefly, she wanted to see right away how he'd react.
