The little child had finished eating and was now wiping his mouth with his sleeve. After he was done,he looked at Antonio. "Thank you for the meal,mister." The child said as he smiled. Antonio couldn't help but smile. "No problem,carino."
The blond child smiled back before tilting his head. "Why do you talk like that?" Matthew asked.
"Talk like what?"Antonio said as he sat up.
"Like….Why did you just make the n have a y? "Matt raised a brow. The Spaniard just chuckled.
"It's really just in my language,carino." The brown haired male said as he got up and went over to him. Matthew looked up at him and smiled. "You smell really nice,mister." Antonio just chuckled.
"Speaking of smelling nice. Why don't you take a bath?" He looked down at the child.
"Take a bath? By a river?" Matthew looked up at him innocently. Antonio shook his head.
"In a bath tub." He said as he picked him up and carried him.
"A bath tub? What's that?" The child asked him.
"Well….Imagine like it's a ship but instead of sailing on it,you put water and take a bath." He chuckled at his own answer. "Smaller than a ship too."
The duo went upstairs to where the large bath room was. He opened the door and looked at Matthew to see a reaction. The child was at awe when he saw the tiles shine and gleam and so did the large tub. He looked at Antonio. "Is that where you're giving me a bath?" He pointed at the tub.
Antonio nodded and smiled as he set him down. The child shivered when he felt that the tiled floor was cold. He hugged himself to stop from shivering but that didn't stop him from getting excited about taking a bath.
Antonio patted the boy's head and went over to the tub and turned the faucet to fill it up with water. He mixed the hot and cold so that it wasn't too much for the boy.
He went back to Matthew. The child was still standing. Antonio chuckled and squatted to face the child. "Time to take a bath." He said as he began taking off the child's clothes. Once he was naked,Antonio carried him to the bath tub and gently placed him down.
Matthew stood for a moment before slowly sitting down. Antonio smiled when the child began to splash and play with the water. After he got completely soaked,Antonio began to clean him with the soap. He did it as gently as he possibly could so as not to hurt the child. Matthew was enjoying the warm water and bubbles. He was laughing and squealing as he popped the large bubbles. Antonio couldn't help but feel something warm take over his body. He lovingly smiled at the child.
"Time to get out. The water is getting cold." The older male said as he got a towel. Matthew looked at him and pouted. "Okay then."He said as he stood just smiled as he picked him up and wrapped him with the towel.
"Thank you for giving me a bath,mister."Matthew said as he nuzzled against the towel
"No,problem carino."He said as he made his way to the room. He put Matthew down on the bed as he looked for clothes that might fit him. He found a shirt that was too small for him and shorts.
He went to the bed to dress Matthew who was rolling around. He couldn't help but smile.
"I hope this lasts forever.."He thought to himself.
