Keira

Chapter 19 Dating?

I woke up to annoying alarm it's Monday today the boys left yesterday afternoon to go clean Jonny's gym. I haven't seen or spoken to them since the last I saw them which didn't bother me much. Yes we did call a truce but that doesn't mean we are best friends or anything now. For now I will just enjoy the peace before something new pops up to cause me problems, because that just seems to be my life now a days.
Lazily I got out of bed to take a shower and do two Dutch braids with my hair before getting dressed. I decided to wear a pair of light blue jeans and a simple maroon t-shirt with a fat cat on it outlined in white. The cat on the shirt was laid out on its stomach with the words in white 'Not Today' on it. I then on a pair of socks and my favorite sneakers before heading downstairs to start breakfast up. I was shocked though as I walked into the kitchen to see my mother already up. She was making herself some coffee and looked lost in thought I got rid of my shocked facial expression. Returning to my cold distant demeanor before walking further into the kitchen to start breakfast up.
"Matin Mom," I said (Matin=Morning in French) as I opened the freezer up to grab some bacon and hash browns out for breakfast. Mom almost jumped out of her skin when she heard me speak "Kiera," she said like it was some big shock that I was the one awake at this hour. "What are you doing up this early," I asked while placing a drain stopped into the skin and filling it up with cold water "I was busy," Mom said as I placed the package of bacon into the sink. I turned to her with a questioning look as I asked "what were you busy with," she looked nervous like whatever she was hiding was huge or very bad. "Kiera," she started as she finally made eye contact with me but once she did she looked immediately away. Oh God I thought to myself the last time she did this was when she broke the news to me that was pregnant with Matty.
"Are you pregnant," I asked Mom looked wide eyed to me "what," she asked in confusion and shock "no," she said I sighed with relief. Don't get me wrong I love kids especially my brothers but with my luck lately Mom would end up having a boy again. There is nothing wrong with boys either but I want a bloody sister! Is that so hard to ask for?! "Then what is that matter," I asked Mom, she took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a moment before releasing that breath and looking to me. "I met someone Kiera," Mom said my body froze and my mind went blank at this announcement I was at a lost for words. My mother met someone... someone she wanted to date? Or is dating?
"Who is he," I asked finally still trying to process everything that is happening "you actually know his son," Mom told me nervously. I thought for a moment who do I know that is male with a single dad... no one. Tony's parents obviously happy and Mom would never do that. Nick's moms are happily married as well plus Mom said his son. But that is the only two males I know... wait one fucking minute?! "You aren't referring to one of the Gods father's are you," I asked cutting my eyes quickly to my mother to see her revert her eyes away from mine. "Mom," I yelled in shock she smiled shyly to me as her body seemed to beginning to sweat "who," I asked. "Well you see um they are coming over for breakfast this morning," Mom said as she took the bag of hash browns from me "you better be kidding," I said as I felt my temper begin to rise.
            Don't get me wrong here. I think it's great that she is dating is it hard for me to imagine her with anyone but my dad. Yes, yes it is. But I can't believe she has been dating one of my ex enemies dads! I knew it couldn't be Fred and Orion, their parents are still together and just found they are expecting another set of twins. Duke doesn't even know who his dad is so that one is out the window. So all that was left was Tyler, his mother left when he was young. I only know that because Clara told  Jazzy and me when we had that sleep over together.
            "Please Kiera," Mom pleaded with me as she took my hands into hers "please Kiera, I really like this man," Mom pleaded. I looked into her eyes that had this light in then of hope and though I would have rather killed them. I gave into my mother's pleads like a fucking whipped spouse to their significant other. I sighed "fine Mamma," I said looking away from her face she hugged me thanking me over and over again. When she pulled she back I looked back to her "now help me make some breakfast," Mom said with a bright smile plastered on his face. I nodded my head then went to go grab the pancake mix out the pantry as Mom went to get a skillet. "This is probably gonna go to hell," I muttered to myself after grabbing the mix I then closed the pantry door to help make breakfast for everyone coming.
