Elizabeth's P.O.V
I wake up to the smell of bacon. I quickly get out of bed and go downstairs to Lucas.
"Hey baby", he says kissing me.
"Hey handsome", I say before our bell rings.
"I'll get it", I say before going to the door to see our neighbors. I open the door to see their smiling faces.
"Morning", I say.
"Good morning we just bought you some cookies to welcome you to the neighborhood", she says and I smile.
"Oh, wow thank you", I say thankfully.
"No problem, oh and this is our son Riley", she says putting her hands on the kids shoulders.
"Hello there", I say and he waves.
"He's selectively mute", she says and I give her a sympathetic face.
"How old are you?", I ask and he puts up 7 fingers which surprises me.
"We should get going he has a football game", she says nervously.
"Right totally good luck", I say kinda confused and I hug her with my free arm.
"Thank you take care", she says before walking away.
"You too", I say after her before closing the door and walking back to the kitchen.
"Who was it?", he ask.
"Neighbor", I say.
"Can you believe their son is selectively mute and he's only 7", I say grabbing a cookie from the plate.
"I bet he's been through a lot", he says.
"Poor boy", I say and before he hands me a plate of eggs and bacon.
"I was gonna go see my parents", he says.
"Oh good I miss your mum", I say smiling.
"Yeah but she's not doing too well", he says and my heart drops.
"What do you mean?", I ask.
"Her heart is acting up", he says and I get teary eyed.
"When did you find out?", I ask.
"About a month ago?", he says.
"Why did you just now tell me?", I ask.
'I don't know you were always around Ethan I didn't want him to hear", he says.
"It doesn't matter Lucas", I say hashly.
"It does I don't want our son hearing her grandmother is not doing well", he says.
"Lucas I swear your such and Idiot", I say shaking my head.
"I didn't want you to worry, how am I an idiot? I just didn't want my wife to worry like she did when we were younger", he says and I get up and go to our shared bedroom.
