Our History

Chapter 25

Gordie's POV

Bring Ashton home was a little scary in all honesty.

Because he was born early, he was really small and I was afraid that something terrible could or would happen to him.

Yet of course my parent's didn't seem to care to much on what happened to him.

I guess after Ash was born and back into the house they realized that he wants Denny. This just made them go back to their old ways. But now this time they were ignoring two kids, and one of the kids had to be a two-month-year-old baby.

Most nights I would wake up to here him screaming because his diaper would be dirty, he needed to eat, or he was too hot or cold. I moved his crib and a few other of his things into my room because I hated having to go so far to get him.

Because of how often I would end up with him, my grades were dropping and I hardly ever get to see Chris now.

Before it was because of school and Luke, but not with Ash being here I honestly doubt we will ever see each other again.

Thinking like this made me cry myself to sleep most nights before Ash's cries woke me up.

All I wanted at this moment was a good nights rest sleeping in Chris's arms, but seeing as how we both have more responsibility, that was probably gonna have to wait.

"You really will never understand how much I love you.", I told Ash as I rocked him and gave him a bottle.

I guess his response was falling asleep because he began to close his eyes.

I began to smile to myself because he was finally sleeping, he barely slept last night and I wanted to go make myself a sandwich.

"Gordie.", my dad said stepping into my room, without knocking and of course waking Ash up.

But before he could ever start crying I popped his Bottle back into his mouth then snapped my head up."Yeah?"

"Your mom and I are gonna go to your grandparents for the weekend. Since you have been so good with Ash, we trust you to take care of him. We are leaving money for you to buy baby stuff and food. Bye.", and with that, he walked out leaving me with my two-month-year-old baby brother.

I wanted to run out after them and beg them not to go and leave me with Ash.

I loved him, but I needed to try and sleep this weekend, catch up on some homework. But now I guess I will take care of him.

I wanted to cry, but looking at Ash's peacefully sleeping face kept me from letting tears slip from my eyes.

What was I really thinking? My parents were gonna step up and take care of their baby? I mean Denny had told me stories where my parents barely paid any attention to me because they only showed him attention.

I just smiled at Ash as he slept peacefully.

"I promise I will always watch you and keep you safe. For as long as I am breathing, you will be safe.", I promised him, even though I knew he couldn't hear or understand me.

To me that promise was more to myself, I would take care of him because my shittt parents wouldn't. This meant I would always make sure he would have millions of presents on his birthday, at Christmas, he will go out every Halloween, he will have someone at all of his school activities whether he plays football or chess. But most of all I will make sure he knows that someone is proud of him, loves him and supports him no matter what he does or who he is. That's all I ever wanted and that's everything I will give him.

I just hope this is all enough.

The grumbling of my stomach made me snap out of my thoughts.

"I need to go eat, so I have the strength to take care of you.", I tell Ash as I place him into his crib," but I will be right back, I just need to make a quick sandwich. Try to stay asleep for thirty minutes."

I then quickly made my way quietly out of my room.

Closing my door I began to laugh at myself. I must sound crazy, talking to a baby about staying asleep.

I continued to laugh and shake my head as I made my way towards the kitchen, hearing my stomach growl on the way in.

I opened the fridge to see if we had any lunch meat or anything that seemed appetizing. Which in my case, almost anything at this time seemed amazing to eat.

But with my luck right when I began to find some food, the god damn phone rang.

I rolled my eyes and kinda growled to myself at the fact that someone was interrupting my eating time.

Quickly picking up the old phone, that we had for years, I answered right before the call would have ended.

"Hello?", I asked the person on the other side. Maybe sounds a little too annoyed and angry.

"Calm it, Lachance, it's just your favorite person on the other side.", Chris told me, I could feel his signature smile on his face.

I rolled my eyes to myself, "I wouldn't say you are my favorite person. But whatever helps you sleep at night"

"Hmm well, when I'm with you we don't sleep at night.", Chris tells me, making me turn red even over the phone.

"Man Chris, I didn't know you could get horny just by the sound of my voice.", I snapped back at him, but I really just wanted food right now.

"Yah I get horny, especially when you're moaning my name while I-"

"Okay Chris I get it, why did you call me?", I cut him off before he could continue that sentence.

He began to laugh, probably at my reaction, "Well I wanted to see if I could come over with Luke? I know its kinda sudden and all, but I miss you."

My heart fluttered at the last part of his sentence, "Yes, of course, you can come over! My parents are gone for the weekend, so we have the house to our selves and two little babies."

"Wait, your parent's left you home with your two-month-old baby brother?", Chris asked me with confusion in his voice.

I almost nodded my head, yes, but I remembered that he couldn't see me, "Yeah, but your parent's are about to let you bring your three and a half-month-old baby brother to my house."

"Touché.", was all he said back to my reply.

"Okay, well I'm gonna let you go so you can pack and I can eat. I am so hungry.", I told Chris, trying to get back to my food.

"You could eat this di-", I hung up the phone before he could finish his sentence.
