His Seductive Eyes.

I could not believe it, Johnny was now a bigger boy! His bears were decorated around his jaws, he has a lot of them! His muscles were big and stronger. He was not putting on any shirt, this allowed me to take a better picture of what he had become. Not only was his skin soft to be touched and attractive, but he also had some height as well. I swear, he was taller than me. His hair was long as well.

I could tell from the expression on his face that he was not expecting to see me at that moment. I was the last thought on his mind as he shouted in surprise. "Aunt Becky! What in the hell! Is this you?" His very deep voice reminded me that he had long advanced from puberty to a real adult.

He wasted no time throwing his arms around my waist in excitement. His head rested on my chest, gently touching the edge of my boobs. It was such an embrace! A-one of a kind! Our embrace lasted for a few seconds before, he lifted his head to face me. "Is this really you, Aunt Becky? Such a long time!" This time his voice sounded gentle as it was obvious that he might have missed my company.

I placed one of my hands on his head. "Yes, such a long time! I missed you and indeed all my loved ones whom I left here for Charlottesville," I told him.

I had hardly finished speaking when a voice was heard from one of the inner rooms. I was yet to make an entry into the house proper. We were standing in the front corridor while our discussion was going on.

"Johnny, who are you talking to?" Asked a voice with a feminine accent. I guess it must be Melinda. I could hear her footsteps as it was obvious that she coming out from the inner room to meet us.

By the time, Melinda arrived, we had broken our little warm embrace. Without wasting time, she threw herself at me, while Johnny kept smiling in excitement, just like his mother.

"Oh, my God! Is this you Becky darling?" Typical of Melinda, she hardly calls my name without attaching a pet name, especially when she is happy. Still, maintaining her grip on my arms, Melinda continued, "why didn't you inform me about your return today? Hey! That's unfair! You know I'm your bestie and besties aren't supposed to keep secrets from each other!" She teased.

"Oh, no! Come on, Melinda, you wouldn't believe it if I tell you my true intention." I tried to defend myself.

"And what is your motive, Aunt Becky?" Johnny asked from his corner. He had given way when Melinda came outside. He was still smiling.

"About that, I wanted my arrival to come as a surprise to all of you."

"And now, I'm sure it has indeed come as a surprise! Why didn't Steph tell me you are coming down to Kingstown today? I'm gonna kill her with two bare hands!" Melinda frowned momentarily before breaking character with a long smile.

"Hell no, Mum!" Johnny interrupted.

Melinda turned her attention to him. "Why didn't your girlfriend inform me about Becky's homecoming?"

"That's what I was trying to talk about. Mom, I can assure you that Steph had no idea about this. If she had, I'm sure there was no way we couldn't have found out," replied Johnny.

Melinda turned her attention back to me. "Is that true?"

"Yes!" I affirmed. "You see, Steph had no idea that I will touch down today. No one knows! Hey, remember I told you on the phone the other night, that I was gonna surprise you with my return? Now, I have fulfilled my promise."

We all laughed about the funny moment before Melinda began again. "Why don't we go inside the living room?" She placed one of her hands on my shoulders and dragged me along and winked funnily.

While we were in a little tussle to go inside, I caught Johnny's eyes looking at me. I had no idea what his long gaze at me could be but, one thing was for sure. His intention was good. Perhaps, he was trying to recall some old good memories that we have shared, just as every Aunty and younger people would do. To set the record straight, I was not his biological Aunt in any way. Calling me Aunty was his preferred way of addressing me, right from his childhood.

The living room was large and well decorated. The interior was different from what it used to be when I was still living in Kingstown. After some moments, after sitting down on one of the sofas, my eyes caught an old picture of mine with Melinda. I stood to my feet and walked across the centre to the direction where it was hung on the wall.

"Oh, Jesus Christ! You still got this picture right here?" I exclaimed in excitement.

"I was gonna tell you to give me a helping hand in the kitchen but now, you have come up with a different conversation!" Melinda was already up to her feet. I had no idea what she was cooking.

"Nevermind mom, you too can go on and have a good time. I will go check on your dish, how about that?" Johnny winked at his mother before turning to me with a long smile. "isn't that right, Aunt Becky?"

"Ummh! Yeah! I think that will be great." I turned slowly to face Melinda. "What do you have to say, Melinda? Why don't you higher a new chef? He could give you a good helping hand, you know."

"Hell no! If he happens to be the last chef on earth, I will never higher him. He is not a good chef." Before Melinda could finish dismissing my proposal, Johnny began laughing.

"Alright mom, you may go ahead and do just what you want," Johnny to pointed to another side of the sofa. "I'm just going to sit right there and wait for both of you. Now, how about that, Aunt Becky?" He teased as he turned to face me.

Once again, we were staring at each other while Melinda cackled at what her son said.

His look I swear, was seductive this time. It was the type of look men initiate on their crush. But, this is Johnny and not some random men out there. This left me with the question, 'Was Johnny crushing on me?'
