Part 7: Mr. I want to know about him!!
I was searching and searching for the damn box that should have been put in its place. Nothing goes missing unless I didn't put it back where it's supposed to go.
"Baby what are you looking for?" Seth walks in and startles me from my search and rescue mission.
"I'm looking for a box that I have and in this box there's a big amount of money that I've been saving for the day Zachary and Lawrence finally decided to get married." I quickly explain to him while never stopping to search.
"Wait so your helping in the payment of there wedding?" For some reason that stops me and I quickly turn and make eye contact with him.
"Not that it's bad I'm just curious." He quickly adds to the end of it.
"Seth we're family it's what we do." He begins to nod his head and process what I've just said I quickly begin looking for the damn box again and happen to look over my should at him and see that he gets that look. The face he makes when something has caught his attention in that brain of his.
"So when me and you decide to get married they'll help pay for it?" He says oh so casually. I find the box and when those words escape from his mouth it falls from my hands. Now paying no attention to the box I turn and look at him as if he's condemned me to death.
"What?" He looks as confused as I feel.
"You wanna marry me?" I whisper to him and when he begins to respond I'm surprised he even heard me to begin with.
"You don't want to marry me?" He says and I can hear it, the hurt in his voice.
"No, God no please don't think that, ( I run up to him and place my hands in his shoulders) it's just Seth I have a lot of, Jesus I just really? ( I'm struggling on how to put my insecurities) I mean I care about you Seth I'm literally falling for you deeper, and deeper every single day you are the most caring and amazing man I have ever met ( I can feel my voice cracking from the nerves and my hands shaking uncontrollably) and everything, literally everything, about me scares me. Because what if you don't like it or you realize I'm not the person you want. (I point both hands to my chest and I can feel myself fighting back the tears) Because I never am to anyone and you leave me. God and my family Seth you have no idea what my brothers or my sister is like they will take this age gap (I point back and forth to the empty space that's in front of us) and make it into a punch line for forever, literally forever you know? (Finally I calm down and I can see he doesn't feel hurt anymore) I just I need to know, so I'm gonna ask you the way they asked me the first time I moved in with them. Are you sure you wanna become apart of this family?" He begins laughing and I can see that he thinks I'm being funny but an amused smirk never crosses my face.
"Quinn, I'm sorry but we all have crazy families."
"No Seth I mean you have no idea what kind of people these are and I love them so much you know I would die for them but most importantly I would kill for them there my family but I can guarantee you, that you have never ever met a family like this." He stands there starring with a confused look on his face.
"Wait, why did you say they asked you that when you moved in with them?"
"My mom threw me out at 17 and they took me in, wait that's all you got from this whole conversation?"
"Quinn really? I didn't know, I'm sorry but no that's not all I got (he places his hand on my left cheek and begins to stroke it with his thumb) I'm falling for you too, and I'm willing to take on your family head first for you."
He begins to close the gap between us and I can't help it I'm starting to realize that I want him. Our lips touch and it's a slow and steady kiss and when I'm getting ready to tell him to take me my door bursts open.
