BELLA
THREE WEEKS LATER
TUESDAY
"Ok. So Thanksgiving is in two days. We need to make a plan people." I looked at Brayden, Kathryn, Jake, and Weston. Believe it or not, Weston is here 24/7. We even added him to our parenting club group chat. But if we ask him to move in, then we will definently need a bigger house.
"Ok. I have it all planned out yall. Don't worry." Kat said. "Ok." I said.
"So Bella you are good at baking so you will make the brownies and egg custard, and you will make the chicken and dumplings. I will make the green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, and sweet tea. And Jake will make the Turkey and chicken and dressing. I will also take the cranberry sauce out of the can." Kat explained.
"Ok. What about us?" Brayden gestured to himself and Weston. "Yall have the fun part. While we are cooking, yall two and Andrew and Elijah will be sleeping so yall can go black Friday shopping that night after dinner." Kat smirked.
"Oh great. I hate shopping." Weston said. "Well black Friday is the best day to get Christmas shopping. Since black Friday is always Thursday and Friday, me, Bella, and Jake are going Friday morning." Kat said. "Ok whatever." Brayden agreed.
"Ok. Now me and Kat are going grocery shopping with Eden and Bailey." I stood up and walked up to my room to get dressed. I put on dark blue skinny Jean's, lavender Van's, and a grey sweater. I put my hair in a messy bun and did my makeup.
I then went and picked out Eden and Bailey's clothes. Kat did their hair. I went downstairs and waited for them to be ready.
I felt hands wrap around my waist and I furn around to see Jake. "Hey jakey." "Hey sunshine." He turned me around so I would face him.
He pulled my chin up and kissed my lips. His lips were soft. He licked my bottom lip and bit it. That caused me to groan and he slipped his tongue into my mouth.
About 5 minutes into our makeout session, we were interrupted by a cough. I turned around to see Kat. "Ready?" She asked. "Yup. Bye babe. I packed Jake's lips and we walked out.
We took the SUV and went to zaxbys to eat real quick. "What do you want?" I asked Eden. "Chicken and fries." She said. "Me too." Bailey spoke.
I ordered for me and the kids. "I want a 4 piece snack meal, a 3 piece chicken finger and 3 sweet teas." I smiled. "And I also want a 3 piece chicken finger and a sweet tea." Kat ordered. "Ok your total is $15.92." The cashier spoke. (AN: I used a random price lol)
"So Eden and Bailey yall are sharing a meal." I said. They both nodded. We fixed our drinks and sat in a booth.
"Hey bay where did you get that bracelet?" Kat asked. "Benny boo bear gave it to me." Bailey smiled. "Its sad when a 5 year old has a better love life than me." Kat mumbled and I laughed.
The guy finally gave us our food. We ate and then we went to Walmart. First we went to the other aisles before the food aisles.
"Let's look at the onesies." Eden said. We all nodded and headed over there. "Look at the unicorn Onesies Bay." Eden said excitedly. "How much are they?" Kat asked. "They are on sale $5 each." Eden answered. "Ok let's get them." I suggested. "Yayyyy." Both the kids screamed.
"OH MY GOD LOOK AT THESE BELL." Kat screamed. They were tigger and piglet onesies. "You better get these for you and Jake." She said. "Ok. We will have a couples day one day and wear them." I said and picked them up. "I wish I had a boyfriend to do that stuff with." She whined.
"You know you and West would be cute." I winked. She blushed. "You think so?" She asked. "Oh yeah." I nodded.
We finally bought the actual groceries and went home about an hour later. We pulled up in the driveway and Andrew and Elijah came out and got the groceries.
I went in my room and saw that Jake was laying on my bed on his phone. "Hey babe." I closed my door. "Hey sunshine. What's in the bags?" He asked. I pulled the onesies out.
"I got us ONESIES!" I said excitedly. "Oh my gosh." He rolled his eyes and laughed. "One night we are having a movie night and we are going to wear these." I put them in my closet.
"Ok babe." He chuckled. "You'll be tigger and I'll be piglet." I jumped on to of him on my bed.
We cuddled for a couple minutes until we fell asleep. We woke up to a bunch of bodies jumping on top of us. "Wake up. Dinner is ready." Bailey said.
"Ok. We'll be there in a minute." I said. They walked out. "Jakey get up. Food is ready." I said. "But I dont wanna." He groaned. I kissed his cheek. "Come on." I got up and walked out.
When I got in the kitchen I fixed my plate. Tonight we had burgers and chips. We said grace and began to eat.
The seating arrangements. Now Andy and Eli sit at the stools at the island in the kitchen while the rest of us sit at the table. We are getting a new one soon I think.
"Hmmmmm. I love this burger." West moaned. "Yeah we can tell." Jake laughed. "Hey yall can I just stay the night. I dont feel like driving home." West asked.
"If you do the dishes with me and Andy." Eli smirked. "Ok." Weston continued eating.
After dinner we made sure that the little kids had baths then we all chilled in the livingroom after the kitchen was cleaned.
Then Jake got a call and walked outside with Weston. They came back inside looking angry. "We have to go to work real quick. We'll be back soon." Jake hugged me.
"Be careful please." I whispered. "Always." He kissed my forehead. "Bye kids. We'll be back soon." Jake said. And they left. "Hey Ed. Can Benny Boo bear come over tomorrow?" Bailey asked sweetly.
"Sure. Everybody can come over tomorrow. We are going to chill and watch movies all day." I said. "Thank you Ed." She hugged me. "Elim call Brilee and ask her if they can come." I said.
"Ok." He got his phone out and left. "Ok kids. Its getting late. Get to bed." Brayden said. All the kids gave us hugs and went to their rooms.
Andrew came back in. Now it was just, me, Kat, Bray, Andy, and Eli. "Ok. I have to talk to yall about something." Brayden said. "What is is?" I asked.
"So before Nonah died, she told me that she had a secret savings account with $500,000 in it just in case. And I think we should buy a new house." He said.
"Wait. So when we were struggling with money you didn't bother to use that money?" Kat asked. "No. Because I didn't want to use it unless we had to. Was was going to use it if we hadn't come up with the money." He explained.
"But Bray, we did need it but you completely kept us in the dark." I said. "I know and I'm sorry. I promise I won't do it again." He promised. "So are we moving?" Andy and Eli asked. "If everybody is on board. Are yall 2?" Bray asked them.
"Yup." Andy and Eli answered. "What about yall?" Brayden asked. Me and Kat just looked at eachother.
