The Language of Eyes

Changes

"Happy biiiiiirthday... dear Leoooo..." the song echoed through the huge halls

"Happy biiiiirthday toooo.... Meeeeeee!"

Benjamin rolled his eyes as he pushed his brother to the master bed of his "Alright... You have to blow it, did you not?" He took a deep breath, yet, smiling

"Why are you here? Where's the... good looking one... with those legs..." he mumbled

"You are... shameless" The doctor helped him getting out of his outfit, so he could be more comfortable during the night.

"See... the lady should be doing that..."

"Where's your wife, anyway?"

"Who?"

"Oh, just sleep" he smiled. It did not matter how much time passed by. Leo would always be Leo.

Careless and with a tiny irresponsible vein.

"You let yourself sleep... you've had, quite a night" he chuckled

"I didn't break anything, did I? See.. I am..."

"You broke the entire table of cups. Plus... two lamps"

"Oh... remind me to... pay the bill"

"See you tomorrow big brother, just sleep" Benjamin turned to leave

"Hey..."

The doctor looked back at his brother

"I am so happy you are back... and that you forgave me..."

Benjamin smiled "I am happy too, Leo" he held the door

"Love you..." he heard his brother before he finally closed the door

The doctor walked downstairs again, where Sophia patiently waited for him.

"This house is huge!" she spoke as she saw Ben approaching.

"Yes it is, and guess what?"

Both stared at each other, before sadly smiling "It is empty" both whispered as Sophia closed her eyes, feeling Benjamin's arms pushing her into his embrace. "He's been lonely" he whispered

"Oh," Sophia chuckled, staring at him "Are you not the one who always says Leo always gets himself some company?" she smiled "No wonder why... c'mon just... look at him, he is... erm..." she coughed, lightly blushing.

The doctor's eyes widened "Have you been ogling my brother?"

Sophia giggled "Well, you know... now I can see and all... I got to catch up on what I've been missing"

Benjamin's eyes widened "You only met my brother after the surgery...!"

Sophia bit her lip, before stealing a kiss from him "I only ogle you, handsome"

He rolled his eyes, pulling her into a tight hug once again. His nose sneaked into her neck, smelling her amazing fragrance, and he closed his eyes, letting himself get lost in her. "Hmmm... I love you so much" "

Sophia giggled "You're squeezing me, baby"

"Ohh" he smiled, softly letting go "I am sorry..." he played with her hair "I am just... so happy"

She caressed his face, stealing one more kiss from him "I love you too... I could not be happier now" she bit her lip "And you know what? I do not regret one bit of my past... our past"

He gulped, not able to say quite the same "I..." he took a deep breath "I just want to make you happy. And to live by your side, grow old with you" he kissed her forehead "And put all the... bad events aside" he whispered
