Cowboy Meets City Girl

Brother and Movie Night

3rd pov
Alora was staying with the Mathews family as she waited for her father to return the next morning. At the moment the Hunter girl and the Mathews parents were seated at the dining table with their son as they tried to pick out a babysitter.

"Come on, Auggie. Just pick a babysitter." Cory groaned.

"Why do you have to go anywhere? Aren't you happy with me?" Auggie pouted.

"Knock it off. It's our anniversary." Topanga told him as he sucked his pout up and nodded his head in agreement. "All right, I'll give you three hours and you have to bring back an Auggie bag." The brown haired boy bargained as his father quickly agreed.

Alora pulled out a picture of a blonde haired girl. "How about Shelly?" she asked her cousin.

Auggie gave her a look of disgust "Smelly Shelly?"

Topanga sighed "He's right. How about Anna Stephonopoli?"

"Wanna play Monopoly?"No, Anna I do not. Okay? I don't" Auggie acted out a scene from the last time the brown haired teen had watched him.

He looked over at his cousin and back at his parents. "Why can't Lora watch me?" he asked them

"Because, Alora already has something to do that night." Topanga told her son.

"What's she doing?" Cory asked his goddaughter but she didn't answer and this caused him to worry. "What are you doing that night, Alora?" he asked in a serious voice.

Alora bit her lip as she shyly looked up at her Uncle. "I'm having a movie night with Lucas."

"What!" Cory shouted as he stood from his seat but was quickly pulled down by his wife.

"Cory, it's fine." The long haired woman tried to calm her husband down. "Alora is responsible enough to watch Auggie by herself than she can watch a movie with her friend."

"It's not Alora I'm worried about, it's him." He hissed out the last word. "How could Shawn have allowed this?' He felt betrayed by his best friend.

"Daddy didn't." Alora told him.

"He didn't." He perked up as he pulled his phone from his pocket and was about to dial the older Hunter's number when his wife snached it from his hands. "Come on, Topanga!" he whined.

His wife just glared at him. "I gave Alora permission to hang out with her friend and if you or Shawn ruin this for her I will make you both wish your mothers never birthed you." She threatened as the apartment door opened and their eldest child walked in.

"I'm late! I'm late! I'm late!" Riley chanted as she walked towards her family with Maya following behind her.

"Seven minutes." Cory told his daughter, unimpressed. "Say nothing, keep walking." Maya whispered urgently.

Riley disagreed "No. this is a thing. Deal with your bad girl."

The older people in the room flinched in disgust at the brown eyed girl's choice of wording.

Topanga just huffed as she stood from her seat. "Okay, where were you?"

"Demolition. It's an alternative store. Where rebels go! And I bought this t-shirt I don't think you'll entirely approve of. Bleh!"

The Mathews parents looked at each other and seemed to have a battle with their eyes that Topanga won. "Riley, what's going on?"

"I am too old for a seven o'clock curfew. I reject it! Reject it! Reject it! Won't even respect it!" She cheered.
