The lion and the doe- A Gene Simmons Fanfiction

Chapter 45

A/N

After four years... 1995... The residence of the Simmons family...

"Oh, Maya, you're so beautiful!" Liliana says to her daughter who brushes her hair in front of the mirror in her room.

Her daughter is a teenager now, she is 16. Today is an important and significant day for her. She has her first date with a boy she has liked for a long time.

And he's not an ordinary boy. His name is Nick Carter and two years ago, he formed a musical group called "Backstreet Boys" with other boys his age.

Although they are still very young, they have a lot of potential and the group has great chances to be famous all over the world.

However, Maya put her hand in her long brown hair. She is wearing a red knee-length dress. Her mother helped her put on make-up. The makeup highlights her green and bright eyes.

Her mother applies a red lipstick to her lips right now. She finishes applying and speaks with a smile on her face, while putting lipstick down on the makeup table:

"You are ready! You look phenomenal!"

"I hope so too," giggles Maya, who looks in the mirror and gets up from the chair. "It's time to go. Nick will be here at any moment."

The two leave Maya's bedroom and go to the living room. There are the triplets and little Eric, who is four years old.

The triplets recently turned 11 years old. Ezra and Kaleb are in front of the TV, playing video games and do not even notice the presence of their mother and sister.

Aryela is with Eric at a table and teaches her younger brother how to draw a house. The boy asks her a question, looking at her with his green eyes.

Little Eric's facial features are a combination of his mother and father. He inherited the shape of the eyes, lips and hair color from his mother. But the color of his eyes is inherited from his father. So are the nose, chin and forehead.

When Aryela sees her sister, her eyes shine and says:

"Maya! You look like a princess!"

"Thank you, sis," the teenager smiles.

Although the boys notice the presence of the two, they continue their game.

Their mother approaches them with folded hands and says to them in a contentious tone:

"Boys, don't you think you've played a lot of video games today?"

"Hmm... no?" Kaleb answers, paying close attention to the screen.

Their mother sighs and says:

"After your sister leaves, you will go to the room and clean it."

"As you say, mom," says Ezra with a neutral voice.

Lily nods in disappointment and goes to Maya, who goes and puts on some black sandals.

She takes her purse and turns to her mother, smiling:

"Nick will be here any minute. I have so many emotions."

"Oh, my dear," her mother goes to her and gives her a strand of her hair aside. "You don't have to have emotions. Everything will be alright."

As they talk, they hear footsteps heading towards them. They turn and see Gene approaching them.

His eyes are glued to his smiling daughter. He stops at her, takes her hand and she giggles and spins, doing a pirouette.
