The Gray Family: Forces Of Nature✔️(Wattpad version)

Brotherly advice

Pat

I sat in a diner, waiting as someone walked into it. The person saw me and joined me at the booth I sat in the diner.

"I didn't think you would get here quickly," I mentioned.

"I came to visit one of Marshall's boys," Nathan said. "What's up?"

I took a deep breath, then explained everything to Uncle Nathan. He sat there and listened until I finished. I watched him rub his chin, contemplating what I said.

"What do you think?" I asked, feeling hopeful.

"You should talk to your dad about this, Pat. I knew the Tilson family growing up and what they did. They're a nasty bunch of people. It doesn't help that you and Mason became involved with two family members," Nathan advised.

"I know, but knowing Pops, he won't be happy to hear it. Uncle Nathan, I like Britt, and I don't want to lose her because her family is assholes. Britt's nothing like her family," I reasoned.

Nathan looked at me and sighed. I didn't want to lie to my parents or anyone else. What do you do when it involves your heart?

Nathan

After I visited Pat, I left to meet up with Noah, who is also in town.

"What's up with Lex's boy?" Noah asked.

"Well, it seems Pat likes a certain family member of a family we all hate," I answered.

Noah looked at me, surprised. "No," Noah said with surprise.

I nodded.

"Dude, that's messed up," Noah mentioned.

"Well, considering one tried to off Maggie along with Nash and Maggie's kids while another one attacked Larkin, I would say so," I agreed.

"I would talk to Nash," Noah suggested.

"And say what? Oh, Nash, your grandkid likes a Tilson, even though they're assholes who went after your family. Yeah, that will go over swell with big brother," I retorted, rolling his eyes.

"Get Nolan to do it," Noah suggested.

"I'll do one better," I said, pulling out my phone and making a call. The person on the other end answered, and I explained Pat's dilemma. The person listened, then hung up.

"Well," Noah asked.

I smiled. When you need help, you call the one person everyone loves besides Grammy Gray, who was the best at taking care of business.

Patty

I hung up the phone as Nate looked at me. "What did Nathan want?" He asked.

"Nathan went to see Patton and found out Patton likes Britt Tilson, who is Mike Tilson's granddaughter," I said.

Nate looked at me curiously.

"Nathan wants me to talk to Nash and explain things," I explained.

Nate looked at me. I knew that look. As much as our families didn't get along, you can't hold someone accountable for another person's actions. I hated Brian and Trish Holloway, but I love Maggie. That will benefit me.

Nash and Maggie came home and found Nate and me at the table.

Nate looked at Nash. "Sit," Nate ordered as they sat down at the table and joined us. "Your mother has something to tell you."

Nash and Maggie looked at me as I told them what Nathan said. After I finished, Nash's reaction was less than favorable.

"No way! That family is nothing but trouble!" Nash yelled.
