Where I Belong Jussi69 and you : ch.3 Welcome Home

The flight was long and left you drained. You stepped out of the airport after landing in Helsinki and reveled in the feeling of the summer air against your face, "Welcome home, Nikki." you said to yourself and hailed a taxi. You took the taxi to a shop that was forbidden to you when you were younger. Villes dad owned a pornography shop and you were never allowed to go inside. When you were a child this was a place of great mystery and you just knew something amazing was on the inside of those doors.
You now stood outside the shop once again looking up at the signs and displays. You felt like a rebel as you walked into the store for the very first time. "Hello, may I help you?" a kind faced man asked you in Finnish with a warm smile. You knew is was Kari, Ville's father, as soon as he spoke. "Well you could hug your little princess for starters." you grinned mentioning the name he used to call you. He was puzzled at first but as you stepped closer he recognized you. "Princess, look how you have grown! You were just a child when you left, now you have come back a beautiful young woman! How long has it been, time has gone by so fast. It seems like you just left." He exclaimed embracing you warmly. He held you out at arms length to fully look at you. He then let you go and went to close the store. "Come, let me take you home. Anita wont believe her eyes." He said as he turned on the closed sign. "Oh no please, I dont want to disrupt your day. You have customers." you fretted hating that he was stopping his day for you. "It is not a hassle, I didnt want to work anyway!" He laughed as the to of you walked out the door.
He locked up the shop and helped you carry your bags. The two of you made the short walk to the same building you grew up in. "I cant believe you still live here." You said as you walked up the stairs. "Ville wanted to get us a fancy place, but this is home and always will be." He replied. You smiled at his sentimentality and the mention of Ville. He opened the door to the flat and the two of you stepped inside. "Anita, come look at what I found wandering the streets! You wont believe it!" he yelled into the flat. "What are you doing he...." She began to say as she walked out of the kitchen but stopped in mid-sentence when she saw you. "Is that my Nikki? Have you really come back to us?" She questioned as tears formed in her eyes. "Its me." you replied with tears of your own. Anita quickly embraced you as a mother would embrace a lost child. Which truly she was.. Your mother was never really there, yes on good days she would get out of bed and take you to the park but those days were rare. The truth was she gave up living long before her body did, she was a living corpse. Anita took you into her family as her own. In your mind Anita WAS your mother, maybe not in the physical way but in every other sense of the word.
"Lets have some tea and you can tell us what has brought you back to us." She announced letting go of you. The three of you walked into the kitchen. You and Kari sat at the table while Anita prepared the tea. "So what have you been doing with your life since you left?" Kari asked taking a sip of tea. You sat there looking at them, this was all so surreal. You couldn't believe you were really back in Finland, you were home. You thought for a moment, what could you possibly tell them? The truth? The truth was you has escaped an abusive boyfriend and were now hiding from him. You couldnt tell them that, it would only worry them. Then you decided to give them the half truth. "Well when they sent me back to Houston I lived with my grandmother. She put me in private school and made sure I got the best education out there. She was very strict and controlled every aspect of my life... Finland is my home and I missed you all terribly so I had to come back." you replied. It was partly true.... "Nikki, you know we have always considered you our own daughter and you are always welcome here. We are so happy to have you home with us." Anita smiled warmly at you. You sat and chatted with them for several hours just catching up on each others lives and recalling happy memories. "Is Ville in town?" you asked swirling the last bit of tea in your cup. "Oh my goodness I forgot, Ville will be so happy you are here. He has missed you dearly. Yes he is home, they are on break for a few months. And you get to meet Jonna his fiance, you will love her she is so sweet." Anita exclaimed. "Here is his address, go surprise him." Kari smiled handing you a piece of paper. They walked you to the door and said your goodbyes.
The building he lived in was only a ten minute walk so you decided to pass on a taxi. The night sky shined, blanketed with millions of stars like diamonds on black velvet. You made your way up the stairs to the top floor. Butterflies began to stir in your stomach. Would he remember you? Was he the same Ville you knew and loved? You stood outside the door for a few minutes collecting your thoughts and knocked on the door.
A beautiful woman opened the door and looked at you puzzled. "Yes?" she questioned. "Is this the flat of Ville Valo?" you asked worried you might have gone to the wrong place. "How did you get this address? We really dont like fans around our home." She said with a sigh. "Well Im not really a fan, Im an old friend of Villes. Anita and Kari gave me the address." you answered a little worried. "Sure.. Do you know how many stalker fans tell us that every week?" She replied about the close the door. "No, please wait! Just tell him Pussycat is here, please..." you began to beg with desperation. "Fine, wait here." she sighed and closed the door. You stood in the hall playing with your hair nervously. You could here muffled voices but you couldnt make out what they were saying. The woman came back to the door "Please come in, Ville will be out in a moment, wait here." She said as she ushered you into the living area of the flat. "Would you like anything to drink?" she asked with a smile, showing a warm side of her you had not seen before. "No thank you, Im fine." you replied smiling back at her.
She walked off into the direction of, you assumed, the kitchen and left you alone in the living area. The room was simple yet stunning. The walls were painted off white with a few paintings scattered about., the floors were a dark mahogany and the furniture was black leather. "Pussycat, is it really you?" someone questioned behind you. You turned around to see Ville standing before you. He looked so different from the last time you saw him. His hair was cut short now and he had gained a little weight but his eyes still shined like the sun when he smiled. You couldnt help but grin like a Cheshire cat as you looked at him. "Surprise!" you exclaimed. "I cant believe its you!" he said as he picked you up and swung you around. You were both giggling like old times, as if he had just met you after school to walk you home. "I have missed you so much! Look at how beautiful you turned out!" he laughed as he sat you back down on the ground. "Well you didn't turn out so bad yourself!" you Quipped. "I cant believe it has been so long, you even have boobies now! Big ones!" Ville joked as he poked at your chest. "Ville you pervert!" you cackled as you swatted his hand away.
"Ahem." you heard from behind you. "Oh sorry! I forgot about the world for a moment!" Ville laughed and walked behind me. "Pussycat, this is my fiance Jonna. Jonna this is my baby sister, Im sure I have told you about her." Ville smiled as he put an arm around Jonna's waist. "Oh yes yes, you only mention her at least once a week.. Hello, it is lovely meeting you. And I want to apologize if I seemed like a bitch earlier. We have had some rather scary people coming around and you can never be too careful." Jonna said as she shook your hand and smiled warmly. "Oh its fine, I understand how that goes. Its nice meeting you as well." you smiled back. "We are expecting a friend of mine for dinner soon, I hope you will stay." Ville smiled. "oh no, I dont want to impose, I still have to find a hotel to stay at. I can come back tomorrow so we can visit." You cringed realizing you had intruded on their dinner plans. "What is this nonsense about a hotel? You will stay here tonight, we have a lot of catching up to do. Besides, I dont think you want to pass up meeting my friend. Let me show you to the guest room so you can get dressed for dinner." Ville said, quickly taking your bags and marching down the hall. You followed closely, as it was dark. "Still frightened by the dark I see!" Ville chuckled loudly. "Shut up, if you hadn't scared me every chance you could get when we were younger I might not have this phobia!" you exclaimed playfully hitting him on the back. "Well here we are. I'll leave you to freshen up. He should be here in about an hour." Ville said as he opened the door in front of him. He walked inside and you followed.
Before you was one of the most beautiful rooms you had ever seen. The walls were covered in a deep purple Victorian style wallpaper. The bed was a huge wrought iron canopy with black and purple netting, the sheets were black satin and the duvet was made of deep purple crushed velvet and filled with down. On top of the bed was a mountain of down and feather pillows. On the wall in front of the bed was a beautiful antique wardrobe covered in black lacquer that shined like onyx. On the outside wall was a set of glass doors draped in black and purple velvet curtains that opened up to a balcony that over looked the Gulf of Finland. "The bathroom is right through there. We are going out to eat so dress accordingly." Ville said pointing towards a door in the corner of the room. "Well, I guess that is all. Im so happy you are home Pussycat." He added hugging you are walking out of the room.
The bed looked so inviting you just wanted to roll around on it and wrap yourself up into blankets, but you resisted the urge and stepped into the bathroom. It was completely black with black marble flooring, black marble sink; tub; and dual headed shower. The only color in the room was the chrome faucets and knobs on the cabinets. You disrobed and took a quick shower, the hot water soothed and awakened your tired body.
Gosh did you make it long enough?

Hope you liked it. I promise I'm getting to the good part soon lmao.
