After dinner Noah and Olivia watched some movies. It got pretty late and they decided to go to bed.
Noah lay in his bed staring at the ceiling.
Mom knows I'm friends with Lizzie. But she doesn't know, that she is my girlfriend...
The next morning Noah wakes up earlier than usual because he need to prepare how he is going to tell his mother that he is dating the daughter of the man who broke her heart.
Noah turns on the TV in the kitchen and some Saturday morning breakfast show is on. Boring... He skips a few channels and puts the music station on.
He makes his breakfast along with his mother's.
He hears footsteps coming down the hall.
"Hey, why are you up so early?" Olivia asks, standing there in her pyjamas.
He knows his mother is beautiful, and she means the world to him. So he doesn't want anybody hurting her, or taking advantage of her! But he knows that she is attractive and that people will hurt her, and use her. And he can't have that. He feels like it's his duty to protect his mother. Because after all, she protected him.
"I just woke up" he lies "and I thought I'd make you breakfast" he smiles
"Okay" she smiles back. She sits herself down at the breakfast bar, and grits her teeth watching her son make a mess of the kitchen. He OCD is really kicking in. But she smiles through the pain of things not being in the right place.
"Mom, do you have work today?" He asks
"Yeah, sorry. I have to go in all day today" she says disappointedly.
"Oh" he says with the same expression.
He is sad that his mother hardly has any time, but is kind of glad today because he has business to attend to.
He passes her a plate with pancakes on it, and a bottle of maple syrup.
"Hey don't worry, I have tomorrow off. We can do something if you want. But if you don't, I totally understand, I mean who wants to be seen with their mom around town?!" She laughs
"Erm..I do! Especially when she is this amazing badass cop, that doesn't look a day over 30!" He replies with a laugh
"Aww, bless your heart. Wait.... What do you want?!" She replies, she has figured out that he wants something.
"Nothing!" He laughs in denial
"Yeah sure!"
Later that day, Olivia is stuck at the precinct, and Noah makes his way to Lizzie's house.
Knock knock.
The door flys open almost instantly.
"Hey Noah" Lizzie smiles, she kisses his cheek quickly, as she sees her brother coming down the stairs.
"What are you doing here?!" Dickie asks sharply
"I came to speak to erm... To your dad. Is he here?"
Both Lizzie and Dickie seem shocked.
"Erm.. He doesn't live with us anymore. He moved out when our parents got divorced" she says
"Oh, I'm sorry. But do you know where I can find him?" He asks
"Why do you need to speak to him?" Dickie says sharply, again "he doesn't want to see you. Our your whore of what you call a mother?! She isn't even your mom!"
"Dickie!" Lizzie yells
"What its true! She is a whore! She tried to steel dad away from us remember?! She broke up our family! She is a dirty slut!" Dickie taunts
Noah had to clench his fists and force himself to keep them by his side. He felt the anger rise in him.
"Dickie! You can't say that!" Lizzie exclaims "Noah, don't listen to him!"
Just then Kathy walks to the door.
"Hey, Noah right?" She asks, oblivious to who his mother is.
"Yeah" he says
"So what brings you here?" She asks
Lizzie obviously hasn't told her mother that the two are dating either.
