Chapter 107 - Magnus
The dinner finished soon after that and Robert and Sam kindly had said they would clear up and do the washing up, so April took the cat out to the garden and Bernie walked around the garden with her to keep her company.
The sun was low as it was getting dark and small twinkly lights lit up in the trees that surrounded the garden.
Dean and Joseph stood at the door that led out to the garden and watched April as she played with the cat by the pond. Her eyes sparkled as she played with the cat and she had the biggest smile on her face. The cat seemed to pick his person as he played with April.
Dean stood beside Joseph and asked the question that had been on his mind since April had agreed to move in, "So if Mark shows up here?"
Joseph enjoyed watching April play with the cat but his smile faded with Dean\'s question. He coughed and answered, "Mark won\'t show up here and if he does he will find out that he is no longer welcome here."
Joseph would keep this generation safe, he had unfortunately seen the cruelty of the world after losing his first son and granddaughter in law, Dean\'s parents so he didn\'t want Dean to lose April through another tragedy.
"Good." Replied Dean, he needed to hear that response. Now he wanted to break up the heavy atmosphere so he added, "Nicely played by the way old man, I can\'t believe you have April and me moving in here next weekend."
Joseph laughed, "Yes well you can\'t blame me for not taking the opportunity. I always wanted you and whatever family you will soon have to be close by. Your parents loved it here and so did you as you grew up."
Dean was lost in memories for a second before he replied, "You won\'t be getting any grandchildren if you keep hanging around old man." With that Dean walked off towards April.
Joseph frowned before he thought of an idea and so he called out to Dean, "I go for a long walk every night at seven."
Dean laughed, the old man was maybe even more shameless than he was.
April heard Joseph and looked up to see Dean approaching. She bent down and picked up the cat, "We named him." She beamed up at him, in this light his amber eyes had turned a darker brown. He always gave her butterflies whether it was what he said or his good looks.
"Oh?" Dean questioned as he fixed her hair back into place behind her ear.
"Yep, we think he looks like a Magnus." April replied as she stared up at Dean, "Did grandpa want you to join him for a walk?"
Dean laughed and pulled her closer as they walked towards the house again, he wondered if he should tell her or not. He smirked and then he leaned down and whispered into her ear, "He is going for a walk in the evening to give us some alone time to make babies." He then glanced at her face as she blushed and then she proceeded to push him away with embarrassment.
Reaching the door April gave the small cat one last cuddle and then set him down on the ground. The cat meowed up at her and she petted his head and said, "I will be back to stay soon, I have named him Magnus hope that\'s okay."
"Good name and now you have one more reason to stay with your grandpa." Joseph stood at the door and although he was sad that she was leaving he thought how successful the day had been. April and Dean would soon move into the Davis manor and the house would be filled with family again.
April reached out and gave Joseph a hug goodbye, "I would visit you anyway grandpa."
Joseph\'s old face crinkled as he smiled back at April, "I know. it\'s getting dark, are you sure that you both don\'t want to stay here tonight rather than moving in next weekend.`` Joseph knew he was pushing it but he had to ask. If you don\'t ask, you don\'t move forward in life after all.
April was about to reply yes but Dean replied first.
Dean rolled his eyes as he thought nice try old man, he would soak up every second with April until they moved in, "Nope, it\'s not that late and I am an excellent driver."
"Wait, we didn\'t drive here." April suddenly remembered.
Dean smiled and pulled her closer as he guided her to the Davis garage. The garage door opened up and revealed many different models of cars. April wasn\'t one for names of cars, she just liked the look of the cars, she could tell that the cars were a mixture of vintage cars and newer sports cars.
"Pick one for the week." Dean stood waiting, he loved cars and had added to the Davis collection as he had grown up. The garage was nothing new to him.
April was miffed but responded, "Em I dont know, I really don\'t know much about cars."
Dean chuckled, she was cute. Most girls would be excited and want the most expensive car, but not his April, "Then just pick which one you like the most, we will be returning it here next week anyway."
April walked around before she stopped in front of a black car, "This one?" She questioned Dean, she liked the car and had no clue if it was expensive or not.
Dean looked at the shiny black 64 Chevy Impala and nodded, so she liked the vintage muscle cars he thought, it was also the first car he bought with his own money.
"Good pick." Dean picked a set of keys from the wall and held her as he guided her to the car. Inside he buckled her in and started the car. They headed home together, on the road she glanced over and April had fallen asleep.
