You And I

Chapter 30:

Syd:

"Roslyn, stop moving I'm gonna end up burning you." I said as Roslyn sat in the kitchen reaching for her phone.

"Mom, I need to see if Mark texted me." She said as she finally reached her phone and it fell to the floor.

"If it broke you can tell your father how you did it." I said as I released the strand of hair.

"It's fine and Mark said that he will be here around 7." She said as she sat back and put her phone in her lap.

Tonight was her first high school dance and she was going with her first high school boyfriend Mark. They have been dating since last year and she thinks its gonna last forever, I'm glad she has a great imagination. I finished curling her hair and she leaped up to go look at it. Ben decided that instead of going to the dance him and a few friends were gonna have a sleep over at the house. The door rang and no one jumped to get it so of course mom to the rescue.

I answered the door and there stood Freddy. It was weird to think that they were getting so old so fast. I mean Freddy is a Jr. and Ben is a sophomore. Roslyn called for me and I let Freddy in and closed the door behind him. I yelled for Ben while I walked to Roslyn's room. When I got there she was freaking out. "What's wrong?" I asked.

"Mark said he will be here early to take pictures, he said he's leaving in 10 minuets!" She said hurrying to get the dress out of the bag. I helped her get it zipped and sat down to do her make up, being that I am a make up artist. There was another knock on the door and Roslyn let out a squeak noise and jumped up and ran for the door even though I wasn't finished. "IT'S HIM!" She yelled running back to me and letting me finish.

When I finished she ran to the living room where Mark was waiting. I walked out and stood still while Erica stood in the living room, camera ready, and started snapping photos. Niall walked over and stood next to me and wrapped his arm around my waist and kissed my forehead. "We did good." He whispered in my ear and I nodded taking in the scene in front of me.

I was married to my childhood best friend, I have my first best friend from America still at my side, I have two amazing kids, I have a house, I have just about everything a person could ask for in life. When I come back from my thoughts Roslyn has her arms wrapped around me as she kisses my cheek. "Thank you mom, for everything." She said taking Mark's hand and walking out the door.

"Bye sweetie I love you." I yelled as they closed the door.

"What are we gonna do when they graduate." Niall said.

"You can just shut up." I said with a laugh as I walked to the kitchen to make snacks for the boys.

Making snacks for the boys turned into Niall and I getting into a baking supplies fight. In the end I would say I won. Niall was covered from head to toe and the most I got was flower down my bra.

After we showered we all sat down to play a game. I turned on the radio when and when I did they were playing throw back songs. The song play you may ask?

You and I
