Chapter 128: Don't Worry About That, Honey - 2
"That sounds nice," Asher agreed with a nod before leaning forward to give her forehead a quick kiss, making her laugh at how sweet he always was whenever they were together alone like this.
"It sure does," she said as she grabbed the remote control from off the nightstand near her side of the bed before switching on the TV mounted on the wall right across from them and searching through all available options until she finally found what she wanted to watch tonight.
"There we go!" She exclaimed once she found the latest popular movie among young people nowadays and clicked play after selecting it.
"What did you choose? Is it something interesting?"
"Just some romantic comedy about two lovers who go through a rough patch but eventually end up getting back together again in the end because true love always prevails over anything else in this world."
"I'm curious what type of ending it will have for those two main characters," Asher admitted to Aria with a slight shrug of his shoulders, seeming amused by what she had chosen. "Hopefully, not too cliche."
"Don't worry about that part, honey," Aria assured him, wrapping her arms around his neck before placing another kiss on top of his cheek right below his earlobe and whispering into it.
"I'm sure we'll find out soon enough, won't we?"
With that said, she turned her attention back to the screen as the opening scene began playing out across its surface with captivating visual effects accompanied by dramatic music, setting the mood for what was about to happen next within this film's storyline—and between them both tonight as well during this private time between mother and son.
Asher chuckled as he put his arms around his mom. He had a feeling that she had other things in mind than just a simple hug.
The movie started, and Aria watched the love story unfold with rapt attention while snuggling close to Asher, who couldn't help noticing how incredibly soft she felt against him as she lay in his arms. Her head rested upon his chest, and she laid a hand on his stomach, rubbing circles into the bare skin beneath her fingers, sending shivers through him.
Aria's purple hair cascaded down her back like waves of silk, reminding Asher of how smooth her locks felt between his own digits as he ran them through her tresses.
As he stared at the television screen, Asher realized that it had been quite some time since the last time he had watched a movie like this with Aria cuddled up beside him, just like in this current situation.
Aria, getting cozy in his arms, moved her legs as she positioned herself so that her thick thighs rubbed against Asher's legs, feeling very pleasant.
"Your legs are so soft, Mom." He complimented, shifting a bit so he could rub his leg against Aria's thigh, enjoying the feeling of her soft skin against his own.
The movement caused Aria to look up at her son and smile. "I'm glad you like them, dear." Then she went back to watching the movie again as it progressed further into the plot of the story.
Asher and Aria kept exchanging comments here and there as the movie continued with the love story, with the heroine getting into trouble and the male lead coming to the rescue, just like a classic love story.
After the events of the day and the amount of training he did, Asher found this to be relaxing and fun.
During the whole process, Aria's hands were moving slowly all over Asher's bare skin. The gentle but firm caressing motions she used left him feeling a little aroused, but not overly so since it hadn't gone too far yet.
This was merely her way of showing affection towards him, and she knew exactly how best to do that without being too obvious about it.
"It's a great movie, isn't it, dear?" She asked after a while without taking her gaze off the screen. "The actors are doing such an amazing job portraying these two characters, making us root for them even though we know that they'll end up falling in love with each other."
"Yeah, they are doing great acting. However, the romance is still pretty cliché." Asher said as he took Aria's hand into his own and brought it to his lips. He kissed each of her knuckles before placing them over his heart.
The simple gesture made her smile even more, and she felt butterflies flutter within her stomach at being treated with such kindness and love from someone who cared about her as much as she did about them too.
She could feel the steady beating of his heart pounding against her palm. It was like listening to a melody that played only for her ears alone.
When the couple on screen kissed passionately for the first time ever after overcoming their obstacles and solving their problems together, Aria sighed in blissful contentment while nuzzling deeper into Asher's chest as if she were trying to melt into his flesh and become one entity instead of two separate beings living separate lives.
Her body reacted to the passionate on-screen kisses with an increase in heart rate and heavy breathing. Her skin grew warm all over, and she felt goosebumps forming over every inch of exposed skin, including those areas covered up by clothing.
Aria noticed the way Asher's breathing hitched as well once those scenes showed up on TV. She also sensed how his arm tightened around her waist while pulling her closer to him. His other hand rubbed her thick, creamy thigh, massaging it with slow movements.
These little signs indicated that he enjoyed her being right here beside him very much; however, neither of them spoke another word about it. They just kept watching the movie as it played out until the final scene came around, with the main characters professing their love for one another in front of everyone present at the party where it all started at the beginning.
