y mum gives us our drinks as we join hands to pray.

After we pray I start to dig in.

"I miss this." I say while putting a piece of rotisserie chicken into my mouth.

"Don't we all?" My brother smiles and sticks his spoon into my mashed potatoes. I smack his hand and he laughs.

"So how's work been?" My dad asks me.

"Oh um it's been great." I lie. Jake looks at me confused. I drop my napkin to tell him something. "They don't know." I say as he nods.

"So what do you do?" My dad looks over at Jake.

"Oh I'm the CEO of a family company." Jake smiles.

"Wow. That's nice."

"So how'd you two meet?" My mom asks.

"The café." I quickly say. "We met at the café."

"Aw. That's nice." My mom smiles as Jake rubs his hand on my thigh underneath the table. I look over at him to see him smiling.

I'm about to move his hand when he grabs my hand stopping me. I try not to draw too much attention as I notice my brother giving me the side eye.

He slowly slides his hands up my thigh pushing my dress up.

"Stop." I whisper. He squeezes my thigh. I clear my throat. "So um do Mason and Jason go to preschool?"

"Yea sometimes depending on the hours I have to work and their mom."

"Oh. How is she?"

"She's doing okay." He says as my mom and dad start to talk about how things are going at work. Jake moves his hand to my panties and I grab his hand and look at him.

"Stop." I say. He smiles at me and my brother looks over. I sigh. "Could you guys excuse me for a minute?" I say while walking to the bathroom.

I go to the bathroom and look in the mirror.

Jake's P.O.V.

When Ashley walks out everyone stares at me.

"You two are so cute." Her mom says while smiling at me.

"Thanks." I smile back.

"Are you two happy together?"

"Very." I lie. I didn't technically tell her we were together. "This is really good." I say pointing to the food while trying to change the subject.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome." Ashley walks back in and her parents smile at her.

"What?" She asks while sitting down.

After we finish with dinner Ashley's mom and dad get up.

"Do you guys want dessert?" Her dad asks.

"No thanks I've got mine right her." I say while rubbing Ashley's thigh.

"Stop." She says. "No thanks I'm full."

"You sure?" Her dad asks.
