I wanna live a normal life

April 9th 2025
~Gerard’s POV~
“Happy birthday Gee,” Helen said, kissing my cheek and hugging me.
“Thank you sugar,” I said; fake smiling because I called Frankie that just months ago.
The sound of two sets of footsteps invaded my hearing and not long after they started, they stopped and the bedroom door opened to Reveal Bandit and Alex, singing ‘Happy Birthday’ to me. They both walked over to mine and Helen’s bed and sat at the foot of it, after handing me cards and breakfast to the both of us.
I ripped open the envelope that had Bandit’s slanted handwriting on it and pulled the card out. On the front it read, ‘to the best daddy ever: Happy Birthday.’ I opened the card, ‘To daddy, we hope you have a birthday that’s as awesome as you! Love from Bandit and Alex xx. PS: your present is downstairs in the kitchen.’ I smiled and hugged the both of them, muttering an ‘I love you’ to the both of them.
I then opened the card from Helen: ‘To my gorgeous husband Gee, I hope today is perfect for you and that you get everything you wanted. Love always, Helen xxx. PS: there is a bag next to your present from the kids, use what is in there and wait in the kitchen for me at 6.’ I looked at Helen and she just smiled innocently. I kissed her cheek and hugged her before I got out of bed and walked downstairs and into the kitchen to open my present.
All I could hear when I walked into the kitchen was scratching. What the fuck is that noise? I walked over to a box and the noise increased. What the hell? I opened the box and peered in. Sat in the bottom of the box, looking up at me with a pair of gorgeous blue eyes was a Russian Blue! How did they afford a Russian Blue? They’re so expensive!
“It’s so freaking cute!” I said as I picked the young kitten up and held it in my arms.
“We thought you’d love a kitty so we bought you this little one,” said Bandit, walking over to me and petting the animal that was curled up in my arms.
“What’s his name?”
“Her name is… whatever you want it to be!” Alex shouted, running into the kitchen and practically jumped into Bandit’s arms.
“I’m gonna name her… Elena… after my grandmother,” I said, looking down at my kids and they smiled up at me, although, Bandit’s smile was more of a sad smile because she had always wanted to meet Grandma Elena, after I told her all about the memories I had of her. I placed Elena down on the floor and embraced my kids…

Notes

I'm so sorry... I've been busy and am now tied up with exam prep...

I'll try to update soon but I'm not making any promises as I just don't have time any more :(

Comment, rate and subscribe if you enjoyed the almost speechless chapter (thought I'd have a chapter with less speech for a change)
