Madeline Love
I woke again hours later with the bed beside me empty and the sound of laughter coming from downstairs. My mom is here?
Oh my god, MY MOM IS HERE
I jumped right out of bed rushing to the bathroom fixing my hair into a loose bun and brushing my teeth. After rising with mouth wash I quickly slipping on my slippers and rushed downstairs "mom!" I called
The laughter stopped and I turned the corner to see Ace and her talking and Adonis in between them "Oh Lila those pjs are adorable" I glared at Adonis
Yes my pjs were silk with sock monkeys, but they were cute "thanks Ace bought me them"
My mom just stared at me speechless "Mom?"
"Your pregnant?" I looked down to see my bump intruding my front and then realizing. I didn't even think to hide it
"Congratulations?"
"Shouldn't I be saying that you?" She chuckled as I shrugged. We just stared at each other unknowing what to say and then she stood making the first movement
She placed down the red mug of coffee and without another thought took me into her arms hugging me tight "your not disappointed are you?" I mumbled
"Oh honey" she stepped back shaking her head "a baby is a blessing" she kissed my cheek bring her hand to my small stomach "I'm going to be grandma" she grimaced "Does that officially make me old?"
"Oh no Mama B, you are forever young!" She turned back to Adonis mouthing a 'thank you'
"What are you doing?" Our heads turned to Sloan "you!" She pointed to me "and you" she pointed to Ace "should not be seeing each other"
"I don't think we are traditionalists Sloan" Ace added walking over to her patting her on the back before disappearing down the hall
"Well we have things to do, people are already setting up-"
"Setting up? We are eloping?"
"Yeah and I am your wedding planner, small weddings can be planned. Cute dinner parties are my specialty, so yes setting up?"
"I was thinking we'd just go to a Denys afterwards" Adonis laughed and Sloaned groaned
"What is up with you and Denys!"
"I've never been? I'm curious" I joked as my mom side hugged me "do you have a dress dear?"
"Mmmmmmm no?" Sloan rolled her eyes
"Let's go!" She pointed to the front door and I looked at my clothes "but I'm in my Jammie's" I pouted "and it's cold, I don't wanna"
"We are meeting someone, we have to go or we will be late. You are being rude"
"You are being a big fat meanie" I stuck my tongue out at Sloan and she did it back and soon my mom tugged me lightly
"You guys have a movie theatre in the basement!" the noise of Ben's voice echoed as he came up the spiral stairs "Oh, great to see you Uncle Ben?"
