Ivy Reynolds POV

Right now, I am just so frickin bored. The nurse lady that told me to take care of Anna and Ava told me to come down her again. I'm sitting in this office munching on an apple, waiting for this woman.

"Hello Ms. Reynolds. I have some amazing news for you. I searched and search until I found some relative of yours. You have an aunt that claims to have met you before. She said she could take the twins and raise them. She can't have kids and it would make her really happy."

"So you came down here to ask me will I let them live with my aunt" I asked her.

I was really happy and sad at the same time.

"I would have to meet her first, but I would agree to it"

"So your Aunt Pattie is your mom's eldest sister, and she is at the park waiting."

I nodded my head, getting up. "So can you take me to see her now"

The woman nodded her head getting up.

"Do you have the girls with you" she asked

"Jaylee is downstairs with them"

Pretty soon I was at the park.

"Where is she"

"She is standing by the big tree" I looked down at what I was wearing to make sure I was wearing something presentable.

I had on a blue off the shoulder top with some blue leggings and some black Jordans. It was good enough.

I was nervous as hell, but also happy to finally meet some of my family.

"Hi" I greeted her walking up.

"Hey Ivy, I'm your Aunt Pattie"

"I know. Do you wanna have guardianship of my sisters"

She nodded her head, "Come over here and sit down by me"

I sat down. I wish I had a mom like this woman.

"If you don't mind me asking ma'am. Why did you leave. I mean did you know that your sister was abus-" I stopped talking thinking that I wouldn't tell her that yet.

"I tried taking you with me. I went to court but they didn't let me take you. I had a bad feeling that something was
gonna happen to you if you stayed an and and I regretted leaving you behind for 17 years"

"My mom told me that you didn't care about me."

"I know and that is a complete lie. I love you with all of my heart. I know how horrible it was at your house so I sent small amounts of money to you. I know how they beat you and treated you like trash. I was so sick with it. I just tried and tried. And now you are here with me. Finally" she said with a few tears escaping her eyes.

"I know I sound crazy saying this but I still love my mother. I love her with all my heart. I mean every time she wasn't drunk or high she would come to my room and talk to me rubbing my back. I want to fix our relationship"

"That's really fine. I don't know where your mother is, but I can find her" I gave Aunt a hug cutting her off.

"Why did you do that" she asked hugging me back

"I love you already."

She started laughing. I could get used to this feeling. We just caught each other up on our lives. I handed her over the guardian papers and she signed them.

"Lemme get your phone number" she said typing in the numbers as I said it.

"It was nice talking to you Aunt Pattie" I said getting up, hugging her. I went to go say goodbye to the girls.

I left the park feeling free. I turned it on  Bad and Boujee. I pulled up to Bryson's place cause he told me to come here when I was done.

I walked up to his door and grabbed the spare key and unlocked the door.

"Honeyyyy I'm hoooome" I yelled not knowing where he is.

I walked to the living room seeing Bryson scrolling on his phone.

I jumped on top of him.

"So guess what" I told him jumping up and down

"What"

"I just talked to my Aunt. And it was sooo amazing. I also want to find my mom and I work things out you know"

"That's great babe" Bryson said sitting up grabbing my waist.

"I'm really sad though"

"Why" Bryson said looking up at me.

"I got a text from Coach S saying that I could only eat salad and drink lemon water for a week."

"What's so bad about that" Bryson said laughing.

"I'm gonna die from malnutrition Bryson. I'm allergic to healthy foods"

"Ivy. Come on now"

"How old are you Bryson"

"17. Why"

"Because I could have sworn that your birthday is tommorrow"

"Yep. January second"

"What do you wanna do"

"Nothing really. I want you to make me a German chocolate cake and just chill really."

"What Bryson. Your birthday is a super huge deal. I'll make you that cake, but I'm gonna do something else too."

Bryson sat up.

"You don't have to do that. I only wanna have some cake and this" he said grabbing my butt.

"Okay, horny much" I said giggling

"I'll make love to you
Like you want me to
And I'll hold you tight
Baby all through the night" he sung the Boys || Men song

"Where did you learn to sing like that" I asked him

"I don't know. It kinda came natural to me" he said

Bryson stood up too, "you know I love you right"

"You say it all the time. Of course I know" I told him wrapping my arms around his neck kissing his cheek

"I appreciate what you wanna do. I just don't want anything. I love you for trying to make it special and everything, but it isn't a special thing."

"Yes it is Bryson."

"Let's go lay down"

I walked into the bedroom following Bryson. I went to his closet and got his t shirt. I untied my top and put on his shirt.

"Come here Ivy"

I got on the bed and crawled to him.

I put my head on his chest and curled up. I feel asleep.

Wazzzzammmmmm. This is a filler ya knoe. I swear man today there was a bunch of fires where I live and it was raining. That's a blessin man.
