Accept Me

Chapter 5

"So, my surprise question is, um," he nervously stutters at the end causing me to giggle at his pink cheeks. Rylan chuckles softly before he continues, "Will you be my boyfriend and allow me to take you on a date Friday night?"

My mouth drops open in surprise as I stare at him for a few seconds causing him to fidget. "Rylan, I would love to be your boyfriend if you will be mine?" I say with a huge grin showing off white straight teeth as I throw my arms around his neck with a squeal.

Rylan instantly wraps his arms around my waist pulling me flush with his body allowing me to wrap my good leg around his waist as he was sitting next to me on my bed; I left my other leg straight at an angle off the bed. Mealting into his warmth and saftey of his arms with a soft sigh. We stay that way for several minutes until mama calls us down for dinner.

Rylan stands with me still semi-wrapped around him as he holds onto my thigh of my bad leg as he carries me back downstairs. The whole way down into the kitchen, I have my face buried in his neck giggling like a mad man. I feel as though I'm on top of the world right now.

"Mom, why is he carrying Jaymes-Conner like that?" Jayson-Alexander asks in his cute voice from behind me.

"Jaymes-Conner has a bad knee right now and he's not supposed to walk on it," mom says with a chuckle.

"Jaymes-Conner, why is your face red?" Cameron asks as Rylan sits me down in with my directions.

"Cameron-Matthew leave your brother alone," mama tells him as she takes in my apperance before looking at Rylan with curiosity in her eyes and a raised eyebrow.

"RylanaskedmetobehisboyfriendandIsaidyes," I squeak out happily knowing that mama was asking about my red face without asking.

"What was that, baby boy?" mama asks with a belly laugh.

"Rylan asked me to be his boyfriend and I said yes," I say clearly this time as my face heats up even more.

"What does that mean?" Jaycob-Tyler asks innocently as we start eating our dinner looking at mama and mom.

"That means that Rylan and J.C. are dating like how Jaimi-Constanie is with Jesse," mom explains the best she can to my 7 year old brothers.

"Oh, does that mean they'll kiss all the time Jaimi-Constanie does with Jesse and you do with mama?" Jayson-Alexander asks before puting a bit of pasta in his mouth.

My face heats up all the way to the tips of my ears as my little brothers keep asking questions. Looking at Rylan quickly to see if he's upset with their questions and to my delight he isn't; he's trying to keep in his laughter.

"We don't kiss all the time!" Jaimi gasps out in shock; that's when everyone else bursts out in laughter.

"Yes you do, sweetie," mom gasps out before she answers my little brother. "They probably will when they are ready to do that and not a moment before."

Mama effectifly changes the subject noticing my face before my littlest brothers could ask more questions; we enjoyed the rest of the dinner.

Two hours after dinner Rylan had to head back to his dad's since everyone else has school tomorrow. Before he left though, as he says goodnight to my mom's after telling my siblings goodnihgt, I see him talking quietly to my mom's. I wonder what that's about, I guess I'll find out later, perhaps.

Rylan walks over to me with a sexy smirk gracing his lips. He squats down in between my legs and gently places his hands on my thighs to steady himself.

"Do you mind if I come over tomorrow night and see you again?" he asks softly as my younger brothers watch a show before bed.

Nodding eagerly at him with my own bright smile. "Yesh, tha' would be gweat!" I squeal out suddenly embarressed at how some of my words come out childish causing me to hang my head.
