Mariana's best friend | Jesus foster

Twenty-Eight

I woke up to soft butterfly kisses down my neck. I slowly opened my eyes and saw Jesus grinning at me.

"What are you doing?" I gave him a soft smile.

"It's Mother's Day, baby." He leaned down and gave me a soft kiss, trailing down my neck.

"Don't we have to go to your house for breakfast?" Jesus groaned.

"That's not until later." He sat up and pulled me towards him. "They can wait. Where's your mom and siblings?" He asked.

"Um, my mom is buying gifts for your moms and my siblings left back home last night, expect Tyler who's probably with my mom."

He smiled and his hands rubbed my skin under my shirt. "Jesus, we have to help set up breakfast." I said as I felt goosebumps rise all over my skin.

"And we will." He said as he lifted and took off my shirt while smirked. "Later."

I grabbed a plate of French toast and followed everyone out of the kitchen towards the backyard, setting down the plate, along with everyone else, on the table where Stef, Lena, Tess, my mom, and Sharon sat.

"Where's poppy and Ximena?"

"Uh, they went to visits their parents in detention."

I grabbed Noah from my mother's arms and sat him on my lap. He was now about a month and a half.

Jesus plays with Noah's little fingers.

"Thank you for inviting us, your home is very lovely." My Mom says as she strikes up a conversation.

"Oh, your welcome." Lena says and Stef says a thank you.

"You're welcome any time. I think it's important for us to get to know each other better, I mean our kids have a child together." Lena smiles as she looks over to us.

"So, Tess, did you have fun last night?" Mariana asks as she scoops up some cut up fruit on to her plate.

"Uh, yes! I did."

"A little too much fun!" Sharon laughs and suddenly groans. "Ow!"

"What?"

"Oh, nothing! Just, you know, at my age, every once in a while, you just get a sharp pain in your shin." Everyone just looks at each other.

"How is it being parents?" Sharon asks Jesus and me. "I can't believe I'm a great grandma!" She laughs.

I smile and look down at Noah. "It's hard but amazing at the same time." Jesus nods and kisses my cheek.

"He can't fall asleep at night at all." Jesus adds.

"Hey, Uh, can we do presents now?" Jude asks and everyone nods.

"Crap, I thought this breakfast was our present." Jesus whispers.

"Grandma, this is from all of us." Marian hands over a certificate to their grandma.

"Oh? You- you had a star named after me? That is so great!" Sharon smiles brightly. "Thank you!"

Mariana gets out another box and hands it to her moms. "This is for you two. It's Pomegranate Noir."
