Little Red

Fixing the Problem

Gabriel's POV

"What Happened Honey?" My father's deep voice echoed through the hallway a moment before he entered the kitchen. He looked at us and narrowed his eyes, silently warning us to spill the beans. I gulped and was just about to tell him when the twins came barreling down the stairs.

"Daddy!" They yelled in unison before attacking his legs. He grinned and then picked them up in each arm.

"How are my little soldiers doing?" He asked and they giggled.

"Fine! Guess what Daddy! Mommy made us cookies and then we got to play with Grant!! And if we're good, Mommy said we could have another cookie after dinner too" Greyson yelled and Garrett cheered. Dad smiled and gently sent them down.

"That's wonderful boys! Now go help Mommy with Grant while I talk to your brothers" he said and they nodded.

"Okay Daddy!!"

My dad turned on us and raised an eyebrow. I scratched my neck nervously and Gavin started whistling.

"Boys" he started "Start talking you two" I sighed and then began explaining the situation. Dad listen thoughtfully and was quiet after I finished the story. I was starting to get a little worried. I was just about to ask him what he thought about the whole situation when he gave me the most biggest and proudest smile in the whole world.

"That's wonderful Son! Congratulations! Now when do we get to meet her?" He asked and my mouth dropped opened. Even Gavin was surprised. His mouth was open too.

"Huh?" Was all that I was able to say at the moment. "Why aren't you freaking out like Mom?" He laughed.

"Because my first born Son finally found his one true love. The only reason your Mother's upset is because you didn't tell her what was going on right away" he said and I smiled. I was just about to say something when I heard a smacking noise. I looked up and saw my dad cringing while holding his head. He turned around and Mom was standing there with her hands on her hips and her foot tapping the ground. Gavin and I stepped back, far away from Mom. Dad flinched and tried to soften her up.

"Hey Honey! How was your day!" He said going up to her and trying to plant a kiss on her lips.

Key Word: Trying

She stopped him midway.

"Estúpido! ¿Qué estás enseñando a mis hijos! Eso no es la única razón por la que me asusté!" (Stupid! What are you teaching my Sons! That's not the only reason why I freaked out!) he cringed and started shaking his head rapidly.

"Jennifer, Please Honey! I'm sorry! I didn't mean it" he said trying to calm her down. She glared.

"Todos ustedes! Cocina AHORA!" (All of you! Kitchen NOW!) she yelled pointing to the kitchen. Dad, Gavin, and I nearly tripper over each other running to the kitchen. We might be wolves but, I swear, My mother can make the scariest of men cry.

We all sat at the table like good little boys, when my mother walked in muttering the Lord's prayer. My dad chuckled but quickly covered it up with a cough when she glared at him. She took a deep breath one more time before making her to the table. All three of us cowered in fear.

"Now Gabriel, please tell us about your mate" she asked and I slowly nodded my head.

"Well she just moved here and her name is Evangeline. I met her in Government class today and that's all I really know Mom" I said and she nodded. She turned to my dad and looked him in the eyes.

"How is it possible that he met his mate so fast? I mean we met 2 years after that dream?"

"I don't know Honey? This is news to me too" he said.
