“I see that you managed to run Jason off,” Trevor murmured as he watched Jason pause by the door, looking torn between staying and making a run for it.
“Mikey has a new fast ball,” Sebastian said, making Trevor wince in sympathy as he glanced from Jason, who was now glaring at Sebastian, to Mikey, who was adding another scoopful of mashed potatoes on a plate with the saddest expression that he’d ever… Read More
“She’s trying to make a run for it,” Jason pointed out as he watched Mikey bypass the fried chicken section and headed for the door.
“She’ll be back,” Sebastian said, not really sounding all that concerned as Jason watched Mikey pick up the pace only to frown and reach into her sweatshirt pocket a few seconds later. Jason watched as she frowned down at whatever she read on her phone, looked up at them, back down at her phone and then, mumbled what looked suspiciously like, “I really hate him,” as she headed back to the fried chicken and grabbed… Read More
“That’s not going to end well,” Sebastian said with a heartfelt sigh and a sad shake of his head as Jason sat there, watching as Reese noticeably struggled to figure out a way to appease his seriously pissed off wife.
“It’s really not,” Jason had to agree as he reached for Mikey’s untouched plate only to find it suddenly gone and-
“I want in,” Jonathan said as he dropped down on the end of the bench seat next to Mikey as he grabbed a fork and dug in as Mikey sat there, her shoulders slumped in defeat as she mumbled, “I’d… Read More
“I’d really like to go home now,” came the softly whispered words that had Reese looking up from his food to find the bench across from him empty.
Frowning, he stood up only to find Mikey curled up in the fetal position on the other bench. When he opened his mouth to ask her what was wrong, she slowly raised a damning finger and pointed to his right. Curious, Reese followed the gesture to find Sebastian sitting on the other side of the restaurant, slowly rolling what looked like one of Mikey’s baseballs between his hands as he kept his… Read More
“One hundred dollars,” came the quietly mumbled words that had Mikey frowning as she dropped another piece of fried chicken on her plate.
“Two hundred,” came the follow-up before she got a chance to look over her shoulder to find Uncle Jared standing behind her.
“For…” Mikey prompted since she’d learned her lesson in agreeing to anything before finding out the details to avoid situations like this… Read More
“It’s just that,” and this is where Mikey paused, “I feel like this isn’t going to end well,” she said, looking thoughtful as they watched Devin, who looked really pissed, as he was escorted to the front door.
“You’re not getting out of this,” Jason told her as he watched Trevor head back to get more fried chicken.
“That’s his third time,” Sebastian said, narrowing his eyes on his father as he watched his every move.
“Fourth,” Mikey said, sounding bored as she pulled a baseball out of the sweatshirt that he could have sworn was Sebastian’s and began rolling it between… Read More
“You do realize that I hate you, right?” the man that hadn’t stopped bitching since Devin dragged him out of his office said.
“You realize that I don’t care, right?” Devin asked his wife’s best friend as he glanced around the large parking lot, making sure that none of his cousins or uncles were around before he reached for the car door.
“Are you going to tell me why we had to take my car?” Ben asked, sighing heavily as he reluctantly climbed out.
“Because I couldn’t take my truck,” Devin murmured absently as he looked back and…
He just couldn’t help but… Read More
“Do you know what to do?” Jason asked as he put his truck in park.
“Make a run for it as soon the opportunity arises?” Mikey asked, blinking at him.
“Keep Mikey from running off and ruining this?” Sebastian said, earning a glare from his best friend.
“Exactly,” Jason said as he slowly took in the busy parking lot, looking for any signs that this was a trap.
“I’d really like to go home now,” Mikey said, but since she’d been saying that for the past half hour, they decided to ignore… Read More
“Is there a reason why you felt the need to kidnap me?” Mikey asked, not really sounding all that concerned about it as she pulled a baseball out of her sweatshirt pocket and began rolling it between her hands.
“I need your help,” Jason said, knowing that it was better to just get to the point when dealing with his niece.
“That would explain the kidnapping,” Mikey murmured with a nod of understanding.
“Can you really call it kidnapping when all I did was promise you a new bucket of baseballs in you got in my truck?” Jason asked, still debating the… Read More
“God, I don’t think that I could eat another bite,” Cole said with a satisfied sigh and a grin that turned into a wince as he curled up into the fetal position that had Jason narrowing his eyes on his son.
“You’re pathetic,” Chloe mumbled, shaking her head in disgust as she closed the notebook that she’d been reading… Read More
