Companionship

Chapter 32

"I'm so proud of you, sweetie." Laura repeated.

Marcy wrinkled her nose. "I never said I'd go easy on them."

"I know you're going to try to scar them but you weren't cruel." The blonde patted the green eyed drummer's hand lightly.

"I don't try; I do."

Laura pursed her lips.

"Next time let me come to terms on my own." Marcy finished with a bowl of Billionaire's Dip.

Laura smiled. "My little girl's all grown up."

"I'm not little!"

Laura hugged her.

Marcy huffed, ignoring Manny trying not to laugh.

M-A-P

Ellen loved Marcy's dress. She shined like a green disco ball. "You look beautiful!"

"Thanks, Suge!" Marcy liked what Ellen was wearing. She sort of resembled a conservative Marilyn Monroe. "You're not short-stoppin!"

Ellen giggled.

Marcy leaned back in her chair in the ballroom as the party raged on, just trying to make sure everyone was having a good time.

Ellen watched her.

"That's creepy!"

Ellen started when Marcy turned back. "I'm sorry?!"

"That's creepy! Just staring at me!"

Ellen giggled at Marcy's knowing expression. "I'm sorry! I like the way you look!"

"Do you now?!" Marcy leaned on the table.

"Marcy, you just had a baby!"

"You didn't!"

Ellen laughed. "Stop it!"

"I've got two weeks left!"

Ellen blushed as Marcy smirked and lifted her right eyebrow. "You stop that!"

"Okay!" Marcy warned.

Ellen loved her wife.

M-A-P

My-My, Matty and Russy crawled into the ballroom. It was after 12 and they were supposed to be asleep. The 18 month old trio wanted to party.

Russy was the ring leader as he headed for the food tables. Stacking atop each other, the brothers grabbed food to eat. They sat under a table and noshed, wiggling to the beat of the song playing.

They were having a grand time.

Until someone snatched up the cloth hiding them from view...

Green eyes scared the daylights out of the three. "What are you three doing?!"

The trio began crying.

Marcy pulled them out one by one as her other brothers captured them so they couldn't run. "You're gonna get it!"

The trio knew what that meant and really started crying.

"What are you doing, guys?" Mal hefted Russy.

Russy tried to tell it with his limited vocabulary.

"Yeah?"

Russy nodded.

"He's sorry, baby."

"He's gon see sorry." Marcy narrowed her eyes.

Marc and Mike snickered.
