"When. " I ask Luke.
"Well, we can have a family dinner after are graduation. " Luke said.
"I was going to have a graduation party. " I said. "You can come and bring your parents. "

"How about a family dinner tonight. Jamie going to be gone so it will just be us and our parents. The twins can watch each other. " Luke said.
"Yeah that could work. " I said getting out of his bed. "What time will this dinner be? I ask Luke as I put my clothes on.

"Yeah, I'm glad we didn't this. " I said putting my arms around Jayla neck."So you really thinking about joining the Marines.?" I ask Jayla.
"Yeah, and it will mean a lot if you would support me." She said looking me in my eyes. I really don't want her to join the military, but if that want she wants to do it what she wants to do.
"You know I will support you in anything and everything you do." I told her putting my hands on her waste. "I like a woman in uniform. " I said kissing Jayla. " its a turn on. " I said sticking my tongue down her throat, and rubbing my hands around her butt.
"Aye time to go home. " Ben said walking outside. " I don't want my niece pregnant. " Ben said.
"That was uncalled for. " I said as Luke walk home and as I walk into the house.
"Why you didn't tell us he was white. " Ben said.
"It doesn't matter. " I said sitting on the sofa.
"Yes it do." he said. "I don't want my niece dating a white boy. " Ben said shocking me.
"When did you become so racist." I ask him.
"When I seen my niece letting a white guy stick his tongue down her throat. " Ben said getting up and walking into his bedroom.
I can't believe he feels that way.
I went straight to my room. How could my uncle feel that way about Luke.
