"Okay, that’s enough," Vincent said, separating the two of them. Didn’t Victor have the common sense to notice the weird position he was putting Aurora in because she had no idea about their previous friendship? "You don’t just hug a woman so intently when she doesn’t know you."
"I know her!" Victor argued whilst pointing to Aurora.
"She doesn’t rember anything about you," Vincent explained once more to his brother. Why did their parents spend so much ti and money on his education if he wasn’t going to be so quick to catch on to what was going on? "Take baby steps with her."
"I’m sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable, Aurora. It’s been a really long ti since you’ve been here and I missed the conversations we used to have. I should’ve known you didn’t rember anything because you would’ve co looking for to tell your back. My stupid brother has been keeping you all to himself," Victor glared at his older brother. If this wasn’t his first eting with Aurora after such a long ti, he would battle his brother right here, right now.
"It hasn’t been a full day since I’ve arrived so he wouldn’t have gotten the chance to tell anyone that I’m here. He probably didn’t an to offend you," Aurora said in defense of Vincent so Victor wouldn’t get the wrong idea.
However, Victor wasn’t convinced. He looked at Vincent grinning at him when Aurora wasn’t looking. This confird she truly didn’t rember anything about Vincent either because his brother most definitely did this on purpose. Wait until she finds out about his personality.
"Sure," he replied to keep the peace Aurora was trying to have.
"Are you boys done fighting over her in my shop? This is why I should’ve kicked Vincent out and just kept her here. Why do you easily rember her and I don’t?" Cherry questioned Victor. She heard him say he was friends with Aurora. Cherry was friends with most of the sa people as Vincent and Victor but rembered nothing about Aurora.
"The two of you were good friends too. Maybe not so good if you don’t rember her. I’m sure Aurora has a valid excuse for not rembering us but you, what’s your problem, Cherry?"
"Victor, don’t make fight you because you know I always win. I would hate to embarrass you in front of her," Cherry warned him. She couldn’t deal with both Lawerence brothers in one day.
"I always let you win." Which was the truth because Victor didn’t want to kill her joy of beating him. He went easy on her and allowed her to win but Cherry always thought it was his ego denying the truth.
"Are they..." Aurora trailed off whispering to Vincent now that Cherry and Victor were distracted.
"As I said before, she has a non-existent love life but so does my brother," Vincent replied, tuning out the babbling duo and just focused on Aurora.
"I have a love life," the pair said in full defensive mode. It wasn’t like they couldn’t hear what Aurora and Vincent said just because they were whispering. Three of the people in the room were werewolves with really good hearing.
"Denial is the word of the day it seems. Are you done with the dresses Cherry and do you not have a household to run Victor?" Vincent asked the pair so that he might get rid of them. If only Aurora had agreed to leave Cherry’s shop a while ago they might have avoided his brother. This was ant to be his ti with Aurora, not Victor jumping in to revisit old mories he had with Aurora.
"I’m almost done. If you’re so busy why don’t you just leave her here?" Cherry muttered going back to pack the dresses to have a delivery boy sent to Vincent’s ho. Once this was done, she planned to steal Aurora away from Vincent and Victor.
"That’s not going to work on , Vincent. I have a butler who is more than capable of taking care of my ho while I am away. Now that I don’t live with you, you can’t tell what to do. And as long as Aurora doesn’t mind, I’m going to stay right here beside her," Victor folded his arms showing that he was objecting to Vincent pushing him away. "He’s just jealous of our friendship and thinks I want to steal you away from him. I could if I wanted to."
Vincent’s laughter started to beco louder the more ti passed by after what Victor said. "Dear brother, I would never be jealous of you. I don’t care about you having a friendship with her or the two of you spending ti together. However, this is my ti to help her understand the relationship she had with . I’ll be sure to help her rember you so run along and do whatever it is you like to do."
’Is it really this serious?’ Aurora thought to herself. She felt like the popular kid everyone wanted to sit next to. She always wondered what that felt like and now that she knew, Aurora wished she was the kid everyone avoided. At this rate, there’ll be tons of argunts wherever she goes today. Going back ho with Vincent might be better. She needed to work on rembering her past before coming outside.
"Vincent," she placed her hand on the man beside her to bring his attention to her. "I’m sorry to cut the tour short but can we please return ho?"
Vincent smiled at Victor feeling triumphant in this battle. He stood up fixing his clothes and began to rub salt in Victor’s face. "Of course, we can return ho right away. Enjoy loneliness brother-"
"Actually," Aurora interrupted Vincent before he could finish the sentence. "I was thinking maybe we could invite Cherry and Victor over for dinner? I would love to get to know them more. It might help to rember them quicker."
Vincent peered down at the small woman who thought she could have things her way and she was right but he wasn’t going to give her so easily. "No."
He liked their new exchange system which started earlier. A kiss for a favor.
