Ace( They Love Em Thick Book 1)

Chapter Eight

Bria sat at the table with her family. Another family dinner and she was loving it. She glanced around the table and smiled. Her cheeks hurt but she couldn't stop showing her beautiful smile that captured the hearts of the Francis clan.  The kids had gone to excuse themselves to play in the game room slash entertainment room.

"Ahh the fundraiser finally got a date set" She started.

"What did they decide to do this year?" Jewel asked.

"Something they have never tried before. An auction." Bria replied smiling. Kenya smiled at the idea.

"That's a wonderful idea mom. As I said before I am willing to help in any way that I can." Kenya smiled.

"That a wonderful idea mother. I think I have a few  art pieces that I can't part ways for charity." Briana smiled.

"Oh not that kind of auction. It's a date auction." Bria smiled. The scraping of Forks paused as everyone looked at their mother.

"That is certainly...interesting." Kai said trying to lighten the mood.

"Like selling people?" Briana asked.

"No like selling your time. You're only required to spend a few hours with the person that gives the highest bid. Of course donations are welcome." Bria replied.

"And who is gonna do that?" Bryan scoffed and was elbowed in the side by his wife.

"Well for one Kenya and Briana will."

"What?"

"Huh?"

"Wait what did you say?"

"You both said you would help." Bria justified.

"No one is selling my princesses." Kelvin growled.

"Oh calm down Kelvin. It's not like they are being sold. Only their time and it's for charity. Besides I only put their names on the list because my children have some of the best genes in ther world if I do say so myself. I would have put all of my kids down but I respect my sons' wives and wouldn't want to make their home life worse. But you two are still single unless there is something you want to tell me...Kenya." Bria let her eyes stay on the woman.

Kenya froze feeling all eyes snap to her out of curiosity. Her cheeks began to warm and she cleared her throat. "No ma'am. Nothing on my end." She replied. It wasn't a lie. It had been a week since they had fucked like rabbits one weekend and nothing else had happened. Other than the flirty looks and teasing game that had been playing. It was like they were running around and playing with matched. Except they weren't afraid to be burned because they had already been burned. They knew what it felt like. And it was nothing to feel scared about. They were staying in the kitchen despite the heat.

"Good. And since you and that boy broke up you are free to give some other fine bo you time right Briana?" It was more of a command then a question..one that was a warning.

"Yes mother." She said. Bria clapped her hands together in delight. She had made everything perfect. Of course when sister Jackman made the suggestion to have a date auction she was ready to call the woman crazy. And then it dawned on her. This was her one chance to play match maker behind the lines. She had already lined up two suitors for the girls and told them to bide as high as they wanted. She had no doubt the girls would bring in alot of donations because they were both beautiful and had their own strengths.

This was just perfect. She smiled as they continued to finish their meal. Her husband Kelvin sat in his chair grumbling. He didn't like it but he would indulge his wife and her metteling. It wasn't the worse she could do. And he had seen the worse. To spare his girls that fate he would let them endure this because any interference would have the matriarch turn into a tigress and it would be his turn to reign her back in. He would rather limit those time where he had to do that.
