Teyha's Pov
Noah and Bryce left to bring Danny over to our house. That was her name. She isn't officially their kid, but she will be in a week. The kids played while me and Bryce sat on the couch. We were watching The Hunger Games when Noah and Addison knocked on our door. I opened it and look around. Danny was standing behind Addison and Noah. She seemed a bit shy.
Teyha- Hi, Danny, I'm Teyha. I'm Addison's best friend. It's nice to meet you. Oh my. You are so pretty.
She looked down and smiled.
Danny- Thank you. It's nice to meet you too.
Bryce- And I'm Bryce, Noah's best bud. It's a privilege to meet you. Like Teyha said, you are gorgeous.
Danny smiled widely at the ground.
Danny- Thank you, Bryce. It's nice to meet you too.
Danny looked around behind me and Bryce.
Teyha- Want a tour?
Danny- Really? I'd love one.
I gave her a tour around the house. We stopped in the playroom where the kids were.
Danny- Your house is amazing. It's so big and beautiful.
Teyha- Thank you. We put a lot of work into it.
Danny- Is that your son?
Teyha- Yes, his name is River.
Danny- He is so adorable.
Teyha- River, come here.
I signaled for him to stand by me. I squatted down to be at his height.
Teyha- Say hi to Danny.
River- Hi Dwanny.
She laughed and smiled. She bent down.
Danny- Hi, little guy. Are you having fun with my sister?
River- That's your sistwer? Wow.
She laughed and looked at the ground.
River- Wanna pway wif me?
Danny- I'd love too.
River took Danny's hand and they went over and played. I headed to the game room and met up with the others. We played a bit of pool.
Bryce- Where's Danny?
Teyha- River asked if she would play with them.
Noah- How sweet.
Addison- She's been really brave for what she has been through.
Bryce- I could never go through something like that.
Bryce hit the eight ball in.
Bryce- Boo yah! Where's my 50 bucks?
Noah handed Bryce $50 and Bryce shoved it in his pocket. Then Danny walked in.
Danny- I left the kids to play. Oooo. May I play against you Bryce?
Bryce- Yeah, sure. I'll put in $50. Winner takes it.
Danny- Are you sure?
Bryce nodded so Danny grabbed a cue stick and walked to the table.
Bryce- I'll start.
Bryce started the game and in a couple minutes Bryce had 6 balls left, while Danny had 2.
Bryce- How on Earth is this happening?
Noah- Dude. You never lose.
Addison- Danny's got game.
Teyha- Danny, if you win, I'll take everyone for ice cream.
Bryce- What about if I win?
Bryce winked at me.
Teyha- I'll let you stay up late.
Bryce- Ugh. I wanted a better reward.
I laughed and the game went on. Danny won and Bryce still remained with 6 balls left.
Noah- A girl beat you.
Addison- A 15 year old girl.
Danny- I used to practice everyday.
Bryce- That explains it.
I headed for the playroom and got the kids. We loaded up in our vehicles and drove over to the ice cream parlor.
Ice Cream Man- What would you like?
Teyha- What does everyone want?
Octavia- Strawberry!!
River- Bwue moon!!
Noah- Orange Sherbet, please.
Addison- I'd like a vanilla ice cream cone, please.
Bryce- I'll take a dipped cone. Thank you.
Danny whispered in my ear.
Teyha- I'll take one Mint Chip and a banana split for our big winner.
Ice Cream Man- Ok. That will be $26.89. I'll get it to you shortly.
Teyha- Thank you.
We all took our seats at a booth. We waited for our ice cream and when it showed up Danny started a conversation.
Danny- Mom, do you think I could go to Teyha's house sometimes.
Addison- Of course. As long as they are ok with it.
Danny- Thanks mom. Are you ok with that, dad?
Noah- Of course.
She smiled and dug into her banana split. I went to the bathroom and soon after, Addison came in.
Addison- Wow. You must have made a good impression on her. She doesn't usually warm up to people that fast.
Teyha- I guess I did. She is such a wonderful kid.
Addison- I know. I wish she didn't have to go through all that stuff.
Teyha- I know. That just makes me sad thinking about it.
Addison- The little ones seem to be happy.
Teyha- They just make me smile.
Addison- Well, I'll let you use the restroom. I'll be out there eating my ice cream.
Addison walked out and I used the restroom. When I came back everyone had finished and Bryce was eating mine.
Teyha- Bryce?!
Bryce- Sorry, babe. It looked tasty. And it is.
We all laughed and then headed back home. It was late so I carried River to bed and tucked him in. I went downstairs and laid on the couch next to Bryce.
Bryce- She really likes you.
Teyha- You think so?
Bryce- Yeah. You are a great parent and an even better wife.
(I forgot to tell you. Between the five years Noah and Addison got married and Bryce and Teyha got married. Oops. Sorry)
Teyha- Thanks, beb.
He kissed my forehead.
Bryce- I love you.
Teyha- I love you too.
I sniffed deeper into him and fell asleep.
