Chapter19:
"Will you please try not to embarrass me?" Braylee begs for the sixth time in the last ten minutes.
"Geeze B its not like we have baby pictures." Dallas mumbles flipping through the channels. I chuckle and nod my head. I would have loved to have baby pictures of her then I could have embarrassed her. Just a little at least.
"We will be on our best behavior." I promise and Dallas grunts.
"You'll be on yo best behavior Angel. I ain't promisin anythin. This fella may be nice ta B but I wanna know about family, everythin." Braylee sighs and I smile at her.
"I'll try keeping him under control."
Braylee scoffs and says "Pfhht you'll be askin questions right along with um."
The door bell rings and her eyes widen largely and she just stands there frozen. "Um Braylee?" I ask making sure shes okay. "Wanna get the door?"
"Can I tell him to go back home?" she pleads and I shake my head walking to the door. "Wait." she says grabbing onto my arm for dear life when we stop in front of it. She takes a few deep calming breaths and then nods for me to answer it.
Giving her a strange look I pull the door open and smile. The kids tall like really tall. He's a little skinny but he has some muscle. I think Dallas would call him a swimmer. He's got messy black hair and these deep black eyes.
I raise a brow at his attire and state "I have wanted one of those."
He looks down at his outfit wondering what im taking about. When he brings his head back up he has a brow raised in question. "Leather jacket?"
"That's what its called?" I ask excitedly. I have been wanting one but I couldn't tell Dallas what it was because I didn't know the name.
"Avlon." Braylee complains and I swat her off. "Wolf this is my mom Avlon." I smile at her because this is the first time she has introduced me as that. Well this is the first time she has introduced me at all but still.
"It is very nice to meet you." he says and I smile at him.
"You also I have herd so much about you." I praise and he raises a brow looking at Braylee with a smirk. She nudges me lightly with her elbow and I wince. "Sorry."
"Avlon." she sighs walking into the house. Wolf follows us and we stop in the living room. Dallas is standing with the television off and his eyes narrowed at the boy. "Dallas this is Wolf, wolf this is my daddy Dallas."
Dallas gives her a small smile and then makes is face serious again making me giggle lowly. Bray shoots me a look and I give a fake cough looking away from her. "Nice to meet you sir." Wolf says sticking his hand out for Dallas to shake.
Dallas looks at it a second and then grips it giving the boy a firm shake. "Well dinner is on the table." Braylee says when they just look at each other.
"Right. It's lasagna." I smile happily ushering everyone into the kitchen. We all take our seats and Dallas says "B will you lead us in prayer."
Braylee smiles and we all connect hands bowing our heads. "Father God in the name of Jesus, We come to you as humble as we know how Lord asking that you just forgive each and everyone of us today Lord. We ask that you forgive us for anything we said thought or done that was not in your way. In Jesus name we ask that you bless this food that we are about to receive Lord and bless the cook. We say thank you for our meal Lord and we don't forget about the starving. We ask you touch their stomachs Lord and let them know you are with them. In Jesus name Amen."
We all say Amen and raise our heads. Wolf doesn't looks surprised so I raise my brow at him. "Do you go to church Wolf?"
He looks to me and shakes his head. "No, ma'am."
"It's Avlon please. Do you know about God?"
"Only because Cupcake here told me about him." I look to Braylee impressed and Dallas asks "Cupcake?"
With a sigh I nudge his knee and ask "What has she taught you?" Bray didn't know about God either before we get her so I am happy that she is sharing him with everyone else.
"That Jesus died for us and that God will forgive us for anything we do."
Dallas nods and says "That's right anything but blasphemy the Holy Ghost. What do your parents do for a living?"
Wolfs eyes sadden a minute and then he says "Both of my parents are dead."
"Oh im sorry to hear that son." Dallas says softening a bit. "Who do you live with?"
"I'm eighteen sir I live by myself." Wolf says and I nod impressed.
"You're a senior then?" I ask because Bray is sixteen and in tenth. I wonder how they met?
"Yes Mrs. Avlon. I graduate this year."
Nodding I say "Do you know where you want to go to college?"
Wolf looks over at Braylee quickly before looking back at me but I caught it. He shakes his head and I smile in understanding. "You like my girl." I state and Braylee hisses my name but Wolf nods.
"I more than like her Mrs. Avlon." he states and I am so impressed by this boy. He has so much manners and he is raising himself.
Dallas sits up straighter and gets a serious look on his face. "More than like her?"
"Yes sir. She may not be your real daughter but I wanted to get your permission. Having this dinner was my chance. I wan tto take care of Braylee and her baby."
"You'd take care of another man's baby?" Dallas asks with a smile and Wolf nods totally serious.
"It wasn't her fault sir and even if she had consented to it. Everyone makes mistakes sir and I don't want to make one by letting her go."
"I approve." I say grinning because this boy is so sweet and I know he will be really good for B. Dallas grunts and sits back.
He gets some Lasagna and puts it on my plate before he gives himself some. He passes it to Wolf and Wolf does the same for Braylee and himself.
We all start eating and its silent for a moment before Braylee gasps. We all look up to her worriedly and she has her mouth set in an o shape looking down at her stomach wide eyes. "What is it?" Wolf asks worriedly and let me tell you im starting to like this boy more and more.
She looks up to him with a smile spreading across her face. "Skittle just kicked."
I sigh in relief because she's six months and the baby is suppose to kick at fourteen weeks. We thought something was wrong with her but the Doc said that she is just a lazy thing and she's taking her time. "Oh she did it again!" Braylee says excitedly and Wolfs eyes widen. "Wanna feel?" she asks him and he nods eagerly. She takes his hand and places it on her stomach in the spot she felt her.
It takes a few seconds and then Wolf smiles ecstatic. "I felt her."
We watch them play with the baby inside her belly and Dallas leans over to me a few minutes later and mumbles "I approve."
