Roommates [gxg]

Chapter 21

Victorias Pov:

When Avery and I walk downstairs we find my whole family in the living room. Well..of course not my whole family but most of them. My grandma, my grandpa, and of course mom, dad, Jada and Josh. Benju is still upstairs sleeping but I don't know for how long because the fam is well..not the best in talking quietly..

"Victoria!" My grandma exclaims when she sees me, making me laugh.

I rush downstairs and hug her tightly, which she returns. Okay that's maybe too tightly...

"Mama, I don't think she can breath." Dad says, which makes her pull away.

"Oh I'm sorry, dear." Grandma says with a chuckle and I smile.

"All good."

"Oh and who is she?" She asks as she turns to Avery.

"That's Avery." I say while grabbing her hand and pulling her in front of me.

"Is she a friend of yours?" Grandma asks and I just nod.

I think she'll actually throw with holy water at me if she'd knew that she isn't just my friend.

"It's um..It's nice to meet you." Avery stutters nervously, which makes her chuckle.

"No need to be nervous, deary. I've already met some of Victorias friends." She says and Avery blushes slightly, while I frown.

"You know you've only met Connor, right?" I ask, on which my grandma frowns now.

"Yes but I also met this one boy with white hair." She answers and I snort.

"Grandma, that was Connor. He just dyed his hair." I tell her and her eyes widen.

"Ohhhh."

"Mommy?"

We all turn around to look back upstairs, finding Benji rubbing his eye tiredly.

I was about to walk upstairs to him when Avery already does. "You're mom is busy right now. How about I sing something again until you're asleep?" She suggests and he nods weakly.

"Can you carry me?" He asks softly while holding out his arms and she starts smiling.

"Of course." Avery answers before carefully picking him up.

She then turns to us and gives me a apologetic smile. "I'll be back as soon as he's asleep." She tells me and I nod with a smile.

After that she turns back around and walks off. "Jada, Avery stole your child!" I yell while walking over to the couch and she walks over to me with a gasp.

"Again?" She groans, making us both laugh.

"Guess he just loves her." I reply with a with before flopping down on the couch.

We both then look to the rest of our family and they both look at us confused.

"Oh Avery isn't actually stealing Benji. It's just the second time where Avery sings him to sleep. I guess she just has that effect on him." I explain and they all look a little less lost.

Jada then walks towards me and whispers, "He's stealing your girl." I just snort at that and she just walks over to Josh.

Ahh I miss her and I only haven't seen her in like two minutes!

"Um..I'll go upstairs too." I say before quitting getting up and rushing upstairs.

I slowly open the door of Jadas room, to find Avery sitting on the bed, looking down at a sleeping Benji.

"What are you doing here?" She asks confused and I smile while walking over to her.

"I missed you." I mumble and she chuckles softly.

"I wasn't even gone for five minutes." She says but I just shrug before sitting down next to her on the bed.

"So I'm not allowed to miss you, even when you're just gone for a few minutes?" I ask with a pout and she sighs.

"That-Oh shut up." Avery groans and I chuckle before leaning in and softly kissing her.

"Wanna head back downstairs?" I ask as I slowly pull away from her and she nods while biting her lip.

I then take her hand and we both get up. I lead her out of the room and we head back downstairs.

"Oh girls you just got here on time. We are just about to eat." Mom says and we walk over to the dinner table and sit down.
