Right In Front Of You

Chapter 38 - Are You...?

A Week Later; Raleigh Airport;
Brittany's POV;

Standing against Matt's warm embrace as we waited for Suzie and Jeff's flight to get in. I was glad that we had convinced the pair of them to keep their phones turned off while they were away because if the magnitude of the calls we received from Shaun were a measuring stick; then they would never have gotten any peace.

It had been important to me and Heather that our older sister get peace while she was on vacation. It had been a tense month for her considering she had the opening of the club to contend with but Shaun had just added an extra level of stress that she didn't need.

"You ok baby?" Matt whispered in to my ear as his hands clasped around my front, resting against my stomach.

"Mmhmm; I'm just glad that she's coming home; maybe now we can get something done about stalker boy," I tilted my head in the direction of said stalker who had followed us over here to the airport where Jeff and Suzie were flying in to.

"Here's hoping 'cos it sure does look like he hasn't lost his devoted attention to her,"

"Yeah tell me about it! I mean seriously, exactly how retarded and ass backwards do you actually have to be to not understand the words 'we're over!"

"I don't know but here's hoping that Suzie really is ready to do something about it!"

"If she's not; I'm gonna have to whoop her ass 'cos this just can't carry on you know?"

"I completely agree with you beautiful," He replied kissing my cheek softly.

I couldn't have asked for a more supportive and understanding boyfriend. Matt was as Family orientated as me and my sisters. We always seemed to be on the same page when it came to either my sisters or Jeff and Shannon, who was as close to not only Jeff but Matt too, that they may as well be brothers.

"I'm glad that we always seem to be on the same page Matt,"

"Me too baby," He replied turning me in his arms and kissing me so powerfully that I was left dazed and disorientated. "You ok B?"

"You really should come with a Government health warning," I managed to stammer.

"Oh you really think so huh?" He was clearly amused at the effect that he had on me but it was always this way with him. I couldn't explain how he made me feel other than out of my depth.

"Its not funny Mr Hardy!" I blushed as I buried my head in his large chest as Shannon and Heather made sick noises from where they were cuddled up next to one another on their chairs. "And I don't know what you two are bumping your gums about; y'all are as sickening as Matt and me!"

"Blah!" Shannon waved his hand absentmindedly at me.

"Oh real mature 'Ject!" I giggled which earned me the sight of his tongue sticking out at me before glaring just past me.

"You want a picture?" Shannon growled angrily at Shaun, who had been inching closer and closer towards where the four of us were waiting for the two travellers to get in.

It wasn't just Matt and me that were getting pissed off; everyone who loved and cared for Suzie was worried sick about her. It was hard, as her Family, to sit back and just watch her go through this but I was silently praying that she would see that this couldn't carry on, in fact I was begging.

"Fucking cocksmoking piece of shit!" Heather muttered from Shannon's side who was happily holding her close.

Ever since they had slept together on the night of my birthday party, they had grown stronger as a couple. Both H and I were settled and happy and content; all we had to do now was make Suzie see that she was meant to be with Jeff and we'd all be happy.
