The University of the South

Dinner (3 of 6)

It was amazing here!

Their house was huge. Sort of like a castle.

When I had first been to his house, I was stunned. I didn't expect him to have a house this big when he told me "We're comfortable, I guess."

Humble fool.

"Ahh, Kelly. We're happy you could make it. Pretty as ever." Mrs. Sinclair says as I smile down at her.

She had always been a caring mom, always looking out for her four kids.

"Thank you for having me again, Leila." I say and she smiles at me as she pulls me into a hug.

Yes, she had practically adopted me as her daughter.

"Everyone's at the table. This is so exciting!" She says and I giggle as we follow her to the table.

Before we could enter, Ben turns me to him.

I raise an eyebrow at him and he sighs.

"Kels, I want to talk after dinner. It's something that's been on my mind for a couple of days now. I just wanted to...clear up some things okay?" He says and I slowly nod, pouting.

I place a hand on his cheek and sigh.

"Is everything okay?" I ask and he nods, smiling down at me, pressing a kiss to my forehead.

"Yeah, everything's great Kelly. Let's go have dinner." He says and leads me to the table with a hand on my waist.

I was supposed to talk to him about our....intimacy after dinner as well but now I was worried.

What did he want to talk to me about?

. . .

"And this is her boyfriend?" I ask Cindy as I wave her new Ken doll next to her and she nods.

We had been playing barbies for an hour now, but I didn't mind. The twins were adorable.

I always wanted little sisters.

"Yes! They're inlove like you and Ben Ben!" Candy answers for her sister and I giggle as Ben suddenly appears in the doorway and watches us play with their dolls with a smirk.

"I see you've met me in doll form, Kels." Ben says and I giggle at him as he walks into the room and sits down next to me.

"That doll is for Ben so he could play with us!" Cindy says and I hand the doll to him as he chuckles down at them.

He takes the doll in his hand and grins.

"Okay, if this is supposed to be me..." Ben says and looks over at the doll in Cindy's hand.

"And this is Kelly..." He says, taking the doll in Cindy's hand as Cindy giggles at him.

"Then they have to do this." Ben says and presses the dolls to each other, making fake smooching sounds.

Cindy and Candy squeal as their laughs resonate throughout the room.

"No! That's gross!" Candy says as the two girls giggle even more.

I smile at the scene and sigh. He was such a good brother to them.

"Correct, what did I say about kissing?" Ben asks and they nod.

"No kissing before marriage!" They say unanimously and Ben nods.

"Good job girls!" He says and I roll my eyes at him.

Little Hypocrite.

"I'm gonna bring Kelly home now. You two say goodbye okay?" He says and they pout as they hug both my legs.
