Chapter 15: mini Caydon’s and Grace’s running around the house

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye.”  ―Jim Henson

Caydon’s POV

“Hey dad, we are ready to head out are you going?” I ask whist taking a seat in his office.

“Yeah, I’ll drive up there.” He asks while looking around his desk for something.

“What are you looking for?”

“I went out last with some friends to the gun shop and tested the gun type I am having her use, it’s a Ruger SR22. I put it on my desk last night, but now I can’t find it.”

“It is over here dad.” I say handing him the gun.

“Thanks. Hey I know that you are Grace are dating, and seeming how you two already live under the same roof and all…”

“What are you hinting at dad?” I ask while raising my eyebrows. Wait is he, oh dear…

“What I am trying to say is that I know how kids your age act, remember I was once you age…”

“I don’t want to sound rude, but what are you trying to say?”

“I just… how do I put this…”

“Just lay it on me, I’m not 5 dad.” I say as I hear Cam snicker from beside me.

“I don’t want any mini Caydon’s and Grace’s running around the house, now once you are done with college and married I don’t care. Have as many as you want, but not now.” He says while laughing. I just shake my head, leave it to my dad to bring up that topic while talking about guns, but that’s why I love him.

“Don’t worry about us dad. Now Cam on the other hand-” Speaking of the devil and he shall come….

“Hey! Nice to know you have faith in me bro.” then the little brat smacked the back of my head.

“Ouch you jerk-” again I was cut off just as I was about to stand up and smack him back.

“BOYS KNOCK IT OFF, RIGHT THIS INSTANT” dad said in a firm tone. You don’t want to make him mad, that isn’t a pretty sight. At all.

“Yes sir” we both mumble before we take a seat onto the chairs in front of his desk.

“I want you both to know, I don’t want to be a granddad right away.”

“How did this topic even come up??” Cam asks while looking at me, I just shake my head.

“I have not a clue.”

“I was just looking for the pistol and remembered. Now we have to go. Cam you are riding with me or Caydon?”

“I will ride with him, sir.”

“Don’t call me sir, it’s dad to you. Now let’s go.” With that we all head out.

Grace’s POV

Me and Roe are in the gym, this is my 2nd week of training and so far I have learned enough to stop someone and put a damper on their plans. Her motto is ‘if you have to fight, fight to kill’ her words not mine. 

“One more time; then you can be done for today with me.”

“Ugh, you said that last time. Are you sure you’re not trying to kill me?” I say while getting up off the mats. We are currently working on ways for me to get out of a choke hold. Last week she showed me how to break someone’s nose 2 different ways, with my hand and with my knee. She also showed me some ways to wind them and possibility knock them out for a while.
