Sprinkle of Happiness [2] Samantha Giselle Miller

My Family

I smile watching my gullible son run up the steps. I hated that he could so easily be swayed by his big brothers. It wasn't his fault though not really. He worshiped his brothers, they could do no wrong by his eyes. He was also six and still learning right and wrong. Despite raising eight kids and a hand in raising two more Oliver was by far the hardest to explain right and wrong. It was hard with Jack, the girls having their own concept by the time they joined the family. To explain that his big brothers could/sisters could do something he couldn't, that was the hardest thing. It was harder than explaining to Jay and Will when they were younger why couldn't go to their dads like Adam could.

"Aunt Elle" Justin complained they were sitting at the large table. Jay was leaning back eating brownies that I made last night laughing. "Mum" "how nice of you to join us Adam" he looks around "where's Ollie" "upstairs" I said shrugging "neither of you are allowed to be alone with him" "what" they both exclaim not happy, however Jay is laughing so much he can no longer eat. "You know we would never let anything happen to him" "yeah I do but I'm not particularly in the mood for you to kidnap my son...do you know what it was like for that minute where I didn't know where he was or anything" I snap putting the knife flat on the bench. I had been preparing dinner. "What it's like to have your two troubled sons take you baby and not answer I even had Will" jay snorted he was really loving this "I don't think he was the right son to call" "I know that now Jay" "you can't just take him" "I can and will you both take a breath and prove that you can be trusted because your clearly showing you can't" i said "mum Ollie loves being around us" "yeah don't hurt they little guy" "we lucky for you two he doesn't have to know that his big brothers can't be trusted his busy with school and star also going out with Jay so before he misses you prove that you won't be your usual dumb selves that I do love but they can't be around Ollie unfortunately" "she's right they kid doesn't have to know also think Erin is doing something with him" Jay said "we'll prove to you mum" "oh not me your dad" I said looking Justin in the eye "we should just give up Adam his never forgiving us" Justin said leaning back. Neither one of them knew that Henry didn't actually know. That I never told Henry that they actually kidnapped him. Sure I told Henry they had him but I kept it brief made out I knew where they were, Jay was the only who knew.

"Hello" I hear Oliver say "really" he sounded so excited "mummy mummy Jackie is coming to dinner he wants to talk to you" Oliver said handing me my phone. "Hello" I said putting the phone to my ear. I listen as he tells me it's been a more than average hard day for Nia. "Yeah you both can come I have to pick Denise up from hockey at five so I won't be home but you have a key also Henry will probably be here by than" i told him before finishing up and hanging up. "Mummy can I help you cook" Oliver asks "of course but I'm not actually cooking right now I'm just getting it ready and than your daddy will probably finish it" "can I help him" "if daddy gets home before I have to pick Denise up than sure if not than maybe you can convince your daddy to come home a bit early" he smiles his charming toothy smile. "Really" I nod "but if Jay can I stay with Jay" "we don't know if he would be here" Oliver runs over jumping on jay making said man groan. "Are you staying please stay I miss you and Erin is coming" he was still on the Erin and Jay train. "Don't worry your girlfriend won't be mad when you tell her your favourite brother needed you" Oliver begs "she's not my girlfriend but yeah I stay" "are you sure because she looks at you like mummy and daddy look at each other when no one is looking Dean told me it's what love looks like" Oliver said smiling at him Adam and Justin laughing. "I'm pretty sure he is sleeping with her" Adam adds shrugging "Like I sleep with mummy because I love her lots" "yes yes just like that" I said quickly not wanting any of them to disrupt or crush his child like mind. I knew one day that would happen but his six far to young.
