When Freya met Aiden

12

"Good enough for you? you're some old hag that's come from the UK, and turned my boy's head, and turned him away from me, you should fuck off back to where you came from, and leave us to reconcile in peace without interference from you, you, you old slut" the next thing, she's surrounded by six very angry women "how dare you talk to our mother like that, if you weren't such an old bitch, I'd flatten you, but my mother brought us up to respect our elders, no matter how horrid they were, but I must admit it's taking all my self-control not to slap you" "Lianne, darling, don't bother about it, my mother is not worth it, and if she's got any sense, she'll go quietly, before she gets thrown out" "thrown out? who the fuck do you think you are? you jumped up little piece of shit, you should have been disciplined more when you were younger, you got away with far too much, you were nothing like Ashley, he was a little angel, nothing like you" the next thing the manager was standing by the dining room entrance "excuse me Lady Freya, Sir Charles is there something wrong, only people have been complaining about raised voices in here? Something about some woman coming in and lowering the tone of this establishment, with all her shouting, swearing and violence towards Mr.Ross, is there anything I can do to assist?" "Yes there is, can you please throw this woman out, she's not wanted in here, we have asked her politely to go, but she's refused, so if you could do that for us, we'd be very grateful, William" "will you please come this way Mrs.Ross" "no I won't, I have as much right to be here as any of these people" "I have asked you politely to leave, if you don't, I will have to call in the police to eject you from the premises, so it's up to you" she sat down with a face like a slapped ass "I'm not going anywhere, I came in for a meal and I don't intend to leave until I've had my meal" Charles, ever the diplomat, had a quiet word with Aiden, Aiden had a face like thunder "why should I Charles, why should I let her have her own way? She's called me names, slapped my face, called Freya an old hag and a slut, she's made my life a misery, so no I won't give in, the only thing I will do is leave her to it, we're going to the bar"

They all got up and headed to the bar, she stood up as if to follow us, but William stopped her in her tracks, "if you wish to have a meal, you may stay in the restaurant, if not then please leave this establishment, or I will call the police" she stood up , snatched her handbag and said "I'll not stay where I'm not wanted, I'll just say goodnight to my son" "I don't think so, Mr.Ross, he obviously does not wish to speak to you, so....." and William gestured to the door. She stormed out with the parting words "I'll be seeing my lawyer tomorrow, the way I've been treated, like some common criminal, you'll all regret crossing me" Aiden's face was still like thunder, "why does she have to spoil things Freya? Every time I'm happy she spoils it" he was drinking a glass of wine and gripping the glass, like it was somebody's neck, the next thing they heard was a crack, and there was glass and wine all over Aiden and the table, the wine was white, but it was turning pink as it mixed with Aiden's blood. "Stay still, till we sort out where all the glass is, you're going to need stitches in this it's deep, it's a trip to ER for us" Georgie came and had a look, "yep, definitely need stitches, but you don't need to go to ER, Charles can you call Steve and ask him to fetch his kit over, it will save an awful lot of hassle" "just doing it, as soon as you mentioned stitches, I thought of Steve" the guys gathered round Aiden & Freya, "Are you alright buddy?" Asked Matt. "Surrounded by so many friends and family, of course I am, I just wish certain people would fuck off, and leave Freya and I alone" he smiled at everyone and said to the girls "it's not always this exciting at meal times girls, honestly, it's just that 'thing', she'll never learn she's not wanted" "it's a good job she's old or they'd have been scraping her off the floor, insulting my mum and you like that, the old bitch" said Lianne "you do take after your mom don't you? are all you girls the same?" The others nodded "yes, mum brought us up to respect older people, and to be kind and considerate to everybody, and help people if you can, and if you can't say anything nice and kind about a person, don't say anything at all, the only problem is when you meet people like her it's really hard" said Krysta "definitely" said Pearl. The three of them gave Aiden a hug and a kiss on the cheek, Lianne said, "I'm sure mum will kiss it better for you afterwards" and she winked at him. And that was all it took, it seemed to break the tension in the room and Aiden started laughing "sorry everybody, it's just that she spoils everything, but apart from my bloody hand hurting, I'm fine" "who wants another drink?" said Ray. Everybody agreed, but Freya put her foot down with Aiden, and said "we don't need one at the moment" Aiden looked at her, as if to say, 'who do you think you're bossing about'. "I'm not being bossy, I'm just thinking, you might need a Tetanus shot, if you haven't had one for a while and it doesn't always mix with alcohol" "I never said a word" said Aiden, "you don't have to, you have very expressive eyes and eyebrows, it only takes a look and I know exactly what you want" he waggled his eyebrows at her, and she said "oh, don't be so rude in front of the children" and started giggling as did he. Lianne said "I wish you lot would stop saying that 'not in front of the children' or have you forgotten Krysta and I are both older than our soon to be step daddy" she said it very tongue in cheek and started laughing. Aiden put his head in his hands before they could stop him, Freya grabbed his hand, to late there was blood all through his hair, he groaned "I thought you three said you'd never call me dad, daddy or anything like that" "we did, unless it's to wind you up, and you're so easy, but if you really don't want us to, we won't, will we?" "No" said the other two, and winked at each other, "and I thought they were nice, well behaved young ladies" said Aiden, "they are, but they are also full of mischief, as I am, you're going to have your work cut out Mr.Ross" he waggled his eyebrows again "yes I know, you're just as bad" and the five of them were laughing their socks off, when Steve walked in with his kit, everybody was expecting a small bag with a first aid kit in it, but no, it was a bloody big military back pack, with a small hospital in side it, he looked over to them all, and walked over.
