think about you

chapter ten.

Gerald fixed his bow tie before stepping foot out of the car. After putting his Ray Bans on, he linked arms with his mother while his brother linked arms with her on the other side. She kept on repeating on how handsome her sons looked and how well they cleaned up. He couldn't help but blush.

As they took their seat, Gerald couldn't help but stare at Avery who was in the front row with her father. The church began to fill up and before they knew it, the wedding was starting. Avery's older brother, Evan, was walking down the aisle with their mother. He kissed her on the cheek and she took her spot by Avery. The music began to play and everyone stood up from their seats. Evan's soon to be bride looked beautiful in her wedding gown. Gerald had only met her a couple times and shared a few words with her, but that was about it. He was surprised the couple finally tied the knot, he couldn't imagine himself doing so.

After the bride and groom said their "I do's" everyone began to head to the reception. As they began to walk through the entrance, Gerald could not help but smile at the sight of his own mother smiling. He loved seeing his mom smile. There was a photographer at the entrance and Gillum boys and their mother smiled as the photographer snapped a picture of them.

"Your boys clean up so well. Always handsome," Avery's mother said cupping their faces. "My future son in law."

She shot a playful smirk towards G. He felt his cheeks get hotter, and to hide his embarrassment he looked down at the floor.

"Speaking of, where's Avery? I'd like a picture with her." Sue said looking around. "Ah! There she is! Avery, come take a picture with me and the boys."

"Oh Sue, I don't know." She frowned as she looked in Gerald's direction.

For someone who wore the same black jeans everyday, he cleaned up nice and looked dapper than ever.

"Avery, just take this picture." Her mother rolled her eyes.

Avery stood by Sue and Gerald and James were on each end. She prayed James would take his place by her but she faked a smile as his older brother stood by her and wrapped his arm around her.

"Get in the picture too Alyson!" G's mom called.

They took one more picture before their moms forced the kids to take pictures. First it was the Gillum boys with Avery then Avery with them individually. After they realized they were taking up the photographer's time, Avery sped to the bar causing Gerald to laugh to himself. He'd never seen her so quick to leave any situation.

The three were seated at the same table as the Gillard's. It was Alyson Gillard, her husband John Gillard, and Avery's grandmother on her dad's side, and both grandparents on her mother's side, and an empty seat that belonged to Avery's. It was an honor since it was a family only table. After their food was served, Gerald was posted up at the open bar after smoking a blunt outside with his mother. He ordered his favorite and after about four rounds he watched from afar the bride and groom have their first dance.

"May I have this dance?" a pretty brunette asked.

Her hair was in loose curls and flowed down to her back. She had a flirtatious smirk across her face and her eyes twinkled as if she was up to no good. Her midnight blue dress indicated that she was a bridesmaid.

She was the stereotypical bridesmaid. Lonely, horny, and down for a bone. As much as Gerald wanted to, his conscious kicked in causing him to hold back from wooing the female and fucking her outside.

"I would love to dance with you," he smiled, licking his lips as he stared at her up and down. "But I was actually hoping to have my first dance tonight with someone else."
