Babysitting Bradfords Part II
He was going to fucking kill Devin, Jason thought as he sat there, staring at the twins that played him so fucking well. He never should have looked beneath that bed, but he’d looked everywhere else for them and…
God, he should have fucking known better.
“We need more chocolate,” Abbi said with a firm nod as she reached over and grabbed a handful of M&Ms and tossed them into the large mixing bowl overflowing with ice cream and a shitload of toppings.
Using a mixing spoon, Dustin scooped up some ice cream, took a bite and shook his head. “More hot… Read More
Great Idea Part III
“Go tell your mom that we need to work on the back roof and to keep the kids away from it so that they don’t get hurt,” his father said, not bothering to glance at him as sorted through his tools while Cole stood there, wondering how this day could get any worse.
“Mom wants us to organize the garage,” Cole pointed out, not because he was looking forward to spending the day cleaning the garage, but because he would rather do that than spend the day on the roof, tearing up shingles in this heat with his father glaring… Read More
Great Idea Part II
“What do you think?” Haley asked only to be met with matching glares.
“I thought you loved me,” Cole finally said with a sad shake of his head and a shuddering sigh.
“I do, which is why I think this is a great idea,” she said, nodding as she gestured towards the vision board that she’d made this morning.
“How exactly is spending time with him,” Cole said, emphasizing “him” when he gestured towards Jason, who hadn’t said a single word since she’d finished explaining everything, “a great… Read More
Good Ideas Part I
“Where’s your mother?” Jason asked, rubbing his hands roughly down his face as he sat there, trying to make sense out of this online platform for his classes only to go still when he heard the magical words that guaranteed that his day was about to get better.
“She’s taking a nap,” Elizabeth said, shrugging it off as Jason bit back a smile.
“In our room?” he asked even as he pushed away from the kitchen table and started heading that way.
“She went to lay down a few minutes ago,” his sweet little baby girl said absently as she worked on… Read More
The Great Lockdown of 2020 Part IX
“Why are you glaring at Dad?” Joshua asked, frowning as he reached for his brother’s plate only to have his hand absently slapped as Cole continued to sit there, glaring at his father.
“You don’t want to know,” Cole said, narrowing his eyes on Jason, who she’d like to point out, was glaring right back.
This was not going to end well.
Not at… Read More
The Great Lockdown of 2020 Part VIII
“Go to bed. I’ve got this,” Jason said, rubbing his hands down his face on a groan even as he mentally went over every possible hiding spot in the in-law apartment and-
“Goddamnit,” he said, sighing heavily as he got up and headed back to the in-law apartment where the old woman that he adored was currently struggling to open a twenty-ounce Coke.
“I need it!” Grandma said as Jason plucked the Coke out of her hand, opened it, and took a sip as he ran his gaze over her wheelchair and-
“This is just sad,” Jason said with a pitying shake… Read More
The Great Lockdown of 2020 Part VII
“Look,” Jason said, sighing heavily as he rubbed the back of his neck, “I just don’t think this is going to work out. I’m sorry.”
Sighing, because really, what else was she supposed to do at this point? Haley couldn’t help but nod in agreement as she finished off the last bite of the incredibly delicious Boston Cream pie that Reese dropped off for her. “You know? I think you’re right. I’ll have my stuff packed up and out of here by the end of the week,” she said, placing her empty plate on the coffee table while she bit… Read More
New York Trip: Part III RL Mathewson Sunday Chronicle
“Get Sebastian out of here,” Trevor said as he managed to climb back on the bed and moved to take Mikey in his arms only to have his son tighten his hold around her when Trevor saw it.
Oh, shit…
Swallowing hard, Trevor glanced down at his arms and found himself biting back a curse when he spotted the rash that let him know just how badly they’d fucked up. He glanced back at his Uncle Ethan just in time to see him pull out the small red case that he kept for moments like… Read More
Trip to New York: Part I
“Are you still giving me the silent treatment?” Mikey asked, pausing by the car door as Trevor finished buckling in.
When Sebastian continued to ignore her, Mikey sighed, shifted her attention to him and-
“Fine. Then you may have the honor of acting as my seat,” she said with a long-suffering sigh and a regal wave of her hand that had his lips twitching.
“I’m honored,” Trevor said dryly as he shifted to get more comfortable before reaching down and plucking the tiny thing off the ground and settling her on his lap.
“I knew you would be,” Mikey said with a sniffle… Read More
