Challenge Accepted (Editing)

Family Reunion

B and I ended up eating at one of the local restaurants and while we were eating I could tell he had something on his mind.

I set down my fork on my plate abruptly, ending the silence, and making him look up at me,  "What's wrong?" I say nonchalantly.

B set down his fork and sighed, he knows that he can't avoid this, "I'm just worried...," B sat there in thought, his hands folded in front of him, "What if he has bad intentions?" B avoided looking at me.

I frowned but I understood where he was coming from and I don't blame. Not everyday a teacher and his student get in a romantic relationship that's not just about sex, "That's why they're called 'what if' questions, B; they're supposed to assume and question the worst. I know you don't have any bad intentions with it, but please," I placed my hand over his as he looks me in the eyes, his face filled with worry, "Trust me."

B was silent before he gave me a slow nod. I sigh in relief and return my hand to my fork and start eating again. B picks up his fork and starts eating as well.

"If things go bad I'll by you a puppy." B says while biting into his food.

I look up at him and grin mischievously. I take out my phone and start recording him, "Could you say that again, I have to collect evidence."

B placed his hand in front of his face and laughs, "If things go bad I'll by you a puppy." B Laughs out.

"11." I was upside down on my bed looking at B who was sitting on the floor in front of me.

I was trying to guess what number he was thinking of, I wasn't getting anywhere, "Nope. You're really bad at this." B chuckled and I took a fake offense.

"Hey! When was the last time you had to guess a number someone was thinking?!" I huffed.

"About 20 minutes ago when I guessed yours on the third try." B says triumphantly.

I childishly stick my tongue out at him making him do the same, "What is the stupid number anyway?"

B giggles, "You weren't too far off. It's 24."

"How was I gonna guess that!" I exclaimed flailing my arms around.

"By speaking." B ruffled my hair and got up.

I sat up and felt a little dizzy, I shouldn't have been upside down. B giggled at me softly and once I regained my composure he was opening my room door, "Where are you going?"

"To the bathroom. Don't have too much fun without me." B joked as he left to the bathroom.

I smiled and sat there waiting. I was glancing around the room when I spotted B's phone on the floor. It had gotten a text from someone so I decided to look. I've been through his phone before and he's been through mine. We even trade phones sometimes.

I got off the bed, grabbed it and sat back down. It's a text from his dad. His name is CEO#2 because he's the family boss, well right after his mom. She's just CEO.

CEO#2: We're having a get together with the family that still live here. Be at your aunts house in about an hour. I'll send you the address.

I read this and another text came up from his mom,

CEO: You know your father would just want it to be family, he's a strict businessman after all. In his highchair and bib, but bring Jamie with you. Trust me, we'll all love to see him.

I chuckled at the text. B's dad likes everything to be in order, hence why he just wants there to be family, but they do consider me family.

B walked back in the room and sat next to me, "Did I get a text?" He asked and I nodded.
