Small Town Boy

Chapter 29: Exhale

*please, please listen to the song at the top. Thx !!!*

"Sooo?" I question with a wide smile as I lean closer to my boyfriend, looking up at him expectantly. "So?" He repeats with a chuckle and moves to hold my waist. "Are you going to tell me about what happened between you and Ben?" I ask curiously and hopefully.

"Only if you tell me what happened with my mom. You don't seem to have cried and you're quite cheery, by that I'm guessing it went well?" I nod with a wide grin "It went perfectly" I say happily "Now I'm hoping we can get closer, you know get her to like me more until she can't get enough of me" I smirk as he laughs.

"Now tell me what happened between you and Ben" I insist tugging on his shirt as I become impatient. "Okay, okay" he chuckles letting go of my waist to take my hands into his. "I thanked him for helping you out and he poured out this heart touching speech that admittedly got to me" I quirk a brow, boys really don't get that us girls need details. We need a story with every single thing mentioned, whether it's irrelevant or not say it.

"What did he say?"

"Stuff about him always being there for me and loving me regardless of being my father or not and how he's proud of me, along with other things such as how happy he is that I found you because he knows how much you mean to me and how you make me happy. He's grateful that you're a part of our life" my heart bursts in my chest and I can't help the giggle that bubbles out of me or how I throws myself against Uriah, hugging him tightly.

"So you two are okay now?" He nods "Thanks to you we've worked our differences out" I roll my eyes.

"It had nothing to do with me" I disagree "You were mature and responsible enough to thank him and to listen to what he had to say. You could've easily ignored him or not believed a single word he said."

He shrugs "Maybe but I wouldn't have done it if it wasn't for you" he points out.

"You give me way too much credit. You should thank yourself baby, you deserve it" I caress his cheek looking at him lovingly "You owe it to yourself, not me" I mumble.

He smiles and ducks down to kiss me, his lips are soft and gentle against mine as he pour so much emotion into the kiss. A soft moan tumbles from my lips as he parts my lips, slipping his tongue into my mouth, deepening the kiss. My hands that are on his waist grab onto his belt and I tug him closer to me, flushing our bodies together.

"Dinner!" Danielle's voice resonates through the house causing us to pull apart with a sigh. "To be continued" Uriah winks pressing another quick kiss on my lips. He grabs my hand and leads me downstairs to the dinning room where everyone is already seated and waiting for us to arrive.

As per usual I take a seat next to Uriah and across from Rowan with Ben sitting at the edge of the table to my right whilst Danielle sits across from him, to Uriah's left. "Tonight we're having spaghetti bolognese" Danielle smiles brightly as she leans forward to take the cover off of the casserole. I immediately get hit with the amazing smell and I bite my lip to stifle a moan.

"It smell amazing" I compliment "And it looks even better."

She chuckles and waves me off, "Hand me your plate, I'll serve you." I don't hesitate or waste another second to hand her my plate, letting her fill it up with her incredible cooking. I patiently wait for everyone else even though its killing me not do dig in and fill my hunger. As soon as all plates are filled I thank Danielle for letting me stay which she again waves me off saying I'm always welcome here.

When I finally get the chance to eat, I ignore everyone and focus on enjoying my dinner. God I wish she could cook for me everyday.

When they stumble into a conversation I join in not to look like a retard who's just stuffing my face. I sometimes really wonder how Uriah is in such great shape when his mother makes such incredible meals.
